Best Answer

A free market economy is one in which the means of production (land, labor, capital, and entrepreneurship) are held and owned by individuals. A mixed economy is (strictly speaking) one in which at least some means of production are owned by the government. In practice, it usually refers to an economy where some of the biggest firms are owned by the government, and a substantial portion of the GDP is generated by government owned firms.

Does Australia have a traditional command free market or mixed economy?

The free-market system is free from government intrusion and is where the people can freely change prices and products for the public. The command economy doesnโ€™t provide freedom to its people, and the mixed economy has both government and public input. Therefore, we can come to the conclusion that Australia has a mixed economy.
