That depends on the meaning of the term "fairest". The true argument for a purely free market is not the "fair" usage of resources but the right of each man to use their own resources in accordance with their own reasoning about their lives. If you put a "fair" use of resources above that right you condemn mankind to slavery to whoever gets to define this concept.
