I don't trust ideas to be well produced within a marketplace. The idea of course is that the good ideas will be more popular and people will buy into them more than the bad ideas. Problem is, marketing can be used to sell poison to people as a cure. In the same way, the marketplace of ideas can be used to sell vice as virtue, falsehoods as truth, hate as noble, etc. All you have to do is look at how much cheap garbage being sold today to realize the toxic effect it would have on ideas. The best ideas are the ones that are tested, forged in the hottest fires and withstand the onslaught of hard blows that would shatter irrelevancies, drive off falsehoods, and reinforce facts and evidence. A crucible of ideas is better, to burn away that which isn't true and leave the truth behind to be forged into something stronger.
