The United States of America, as of 2008, has a market economy. We can sell freely, set prices freely, and make freely as long as we go by the laws.An alternative answer: The US has a "mixed economy". This means that there are some aspects of the economy that are driven by open market forces (private forces) and there are other aspects that are driven by government regulation (public forces). One example of government control of the economy occurred during President Richard Nixon's term when he and Congress instituted wage and price controls on a vast number of items. Prices of certain goods and wages of certain employees were not allowed to rise beyond certain percentages. This law no longer applies, but the government still has the power to control these things should it wish to. One example in New Jersey is that gasoline stations are not allowed to raise their prices more than twice in a single 24 hour period. To say that we can set prices freely as long as we go by the laws admits that we cannot set prices freely if those laws restrict the fixing of prices.
