"(this decision) is not compatible with the fundamental concept of free market capitalism" Sounds to me like they're admitting that free market capitalism is bad for the people.

tbh, capitalism isn't intended to be good for the people. It's working as designed.

Free market capitalism only works when supported by regulatory efforts to establish an equitable marketplace that serves societal intersts
