On competition
No. People in an ideal system are allowed to do whatever they want—so long as they do not directly harm one another. Some laws exist—like property laws, murder and rape laws—so that we can exist and flourish in this free society. A few other laws exist. You cannot have a centralized (coerced) business—known as a monopoly—as much as humanly possible so that the people will not be taken advantage of. This is “competition”. Competition forces businesses to be accountable to you . also that they are forced to serve you to make money. Lack of competition will ultimately lead to businesses or government taking advantage of the population.
You might ask “why don’t we have good people decide society instead of business?” The answer is that no one can really recreate the billions of strands of interconnectedness that occurs organically. And as good naturedly as laid sea faith economics creates/allows. Also good natured organizers of society may have different opinions than many of their constituents. Which is tyranny. Also good natured leaders—also known as a vanguard—inevitably leads to despotism. Every single time in history. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Also, business seems like a cold, heartless concept. But if you knew how hard they worked to please you, you would think differently. Only by pleasing you does business profit AT ALL—unless they are a monopoly. Like government.
It is very worth noting also that government notoriously does a terrible and overpriced job at everything they do.
Also in an enlightened society, centralized authority would be unnecessary and detrimental. In an enlightened society, people would not need to be forced to be loving or good. They would do it on their own.
