张维迎：理念决定未来

政府高度干预和国有企业主导不仅不是中国经济奇迹的原因，恰恰相反，它们倒是改革失败论者所大肆渲染的中国社会重重矛盾和不公平现象的原因。政府控制大量的资源和政府对经济的过分干预，是官商勾结的直接原因和官员腐败的主要温床，严重腐蚀了商业文化，破坏了市场的游戏规则。垄断性产业国有企业攫取的垄断利润使得国有部门职工的待遇远超出市场的公平水平，也是收入分配不公的重要原因。

The conceptual failures of intellectuals in Beijing can have real-world consequences to the extent that no one in or around the government is thinking creatively about how to solve the problems facing the country岸and indeed everyone seems to be willfully ignoring potential free-market solutions.

北京知识界的观念错误造成的现实后果是如此严重，以至于政府内外没有人创造性地思考如何解决中国所面临的问──事实上，似乎所有的人都顽固地忽视自由市场有可能提供的问题解决方案。

Yet we can imagine a better way. If we open up the healthcare market and free private capital, we would find that difficulty and expense of purchasing healthcare services would diminish. If we allow capital to invest in our schools and to found new universities, the level of education in China would rise. If we create a constitutional government and establish the absolute authority of the law, then the power of the government would be put under the rule of law. We would thus see fewer cases of the theft and demolition of private property by local governments that lead to hundreds of thousands of protests a year.
