That warped fruit loop instantly discredits himself multiple times. I'm almost thinking that's a troll. This is a classic combo of ignorance coupled with bias and a moderate vocab so as to appear intelligent, when in reality that's some of the most hideously stupid trash I've read in a while. I think I'm dumber for having read it. Just wow.
It would seem according to that pedantic 'gentleman' there can be no 'actual' player/human driven economies on the planet. Sounds like a paranoid extremist with little reasonability or sense of reality.

There are interventions and 'artificial meddling' all the time in real economies. The political part of the equation is simultaneously being villianized and forgotten about as a factor in any and every 'real' economy. This guy wants computer modeling or an impossible actuality of a 'true' free market run by the masses when we all know that's ridiculous. The political system set up as is has no reason to remove itself even if it wouldn't destabilise everything.
If he thinks CCP being removed as a governing factor along with the other preposterous conditions for having a 'real' player driven economy is realistic or even feasible, he needs to go back to interesting yet impossible economic modeling, because what he warrants as truly player driven is impossible in virtual or real world economies.
It is not frivolous, a bit relative of you want to get super technical, but where else is the forces of the economy so, yes, player driven, but in eve?

Well, not too long ago we did have magical fairies from the US Gov swoop in for the infamous 'bailout' of private companies, so, yeah, we kind of do see that.
CCP is still analogous in most senses to a composite ventral bank/government/Resource Organization(OPEC etc).
And as in Eve, in real world economies and not dreamland, these entities are required for stabilizing actions.

I think we can, mostly, all agree the sad, ignorant malcontent the OP mentioned is hopelessly blinded by ideology and paranoia, and out of touch with reality, and clearly has no reasonability as to what constitutes a 'player driven' economy in an mmo.
He also is completely blind to any comprehension of how things work in the real world, vs utopian models of some impossible scenarios.
Glad we can all agree.
