Perhaps it is broken. In which case, what's the alternative? Communism? Where did that get us?

How about a mixed economy?

Mixed economy is a meaningless term.

Every country currently already has a "mixed economy".

 

There is basically Free Market with regulations and minor nationalzation

Nearly fully nationalized (like communism.)

Or about half and half... like what the Nazis did.

 

The biggest issue with 3 is... it's arbitrary most of the time.

Best way to make any idea sound bad - say the Nazi's did it.

It's the only actual example of it I know.  I would of used another example if i could of thought of one.  Can you come up with another example that people could look at historically if they want to know more how that style of economy is run?  If so feel free to mention it.  The Nazi economy actually did quite well until it went all out war on people.  Though that may of just been due to the gearing up for the giant all out war.  The economy of Nazi germany is actually an interesting topic of study.

They basically were the only people who supported a "third way" that was specifically not capitalism or communism.

 

Which would be you know... more drastic then free market with regulations.
