Are you trying to say that the free market if in a sense Darwinist in the sense that the strongest survive? I would think that the free market is less Darwnistic (probably not a word). Only because a free market is a perfect market, meaning there are no monopolies. No monopolies that swallow up the small mom and pop shops. There is high competition of course but because it is a perfect competition; no cost to enter or exit the market, identical products are sold and many companies everyone has an equal footing. Well at least theoretically it is.
In fact the economy that we have right now is more of "social Darwinism" than a free markets, or the left wing gov't interventionist.( Though it can be argued that gov't input in markets is for the common good)
