Heterocracy and Capitalism

A central factor in current U. S. politics is the insistence on a market-based health-care system, and an aversion to a nationalized single-payer system.  Now, at the heart of Market-based systems, i. e. of Capitalism, is the principle that an Invisible Hand is the source of Justice.  But, such a principle is Heterocratic.
