Do you believe that government's responsibility is to perfect society or do you believe in the free market?

Everybody has a outlook on a perfect society.
However...
There is such thing as a "utopia", it is just that because we are omnipotent we will never know what the perfect course of action will be all the time.
What we can do is do the best job we can of predicting, given the amount of effort we are willing to put in. Communism and socialism are not scientifically viable. True science ignores no factors and documents it's innaccuracies as vehemently as it's findings. Capitalism can be immoral at times. True philosophy is never abstract to the point of blind lunacy and likewise this means a pick and mix of conflicting empirical ideas is unlikely to remain the same or lead to new findings in political science.
