Literally, that means "let it be".

A+ =" Let the people do as they choose "

It means "allow to do"

It is a government policy in which intervention of government is strongly opposed.

That policy aims to create an environment in which transactions between private parties are free from state intervention, including restrictive regulations, taxes, tariffs and enforced monopolies.

The term laissez-faire means a few things:

If you are talking about politics, the dictionnary states:

An economic doctrine that opposes governmental regulation of or interference in commerce beyond the minimum necessary for a free-enterprise system to operate according to its own economic laws.

Now for the actual meaning of "laissez-faire".

Laissez is the second person imperative plural form of "laisser"

Laisser = To let, to allow

Faire = To do

Laissez-faire = The literal translation is "Let do". (Let it do its own thing)

In French, it is an expression that is used in the same way "nevermind" is used in English.
