Today the term ‘Social Market Economy' has achieved universal validity - and not even only in Germany.

A social market economy is inconceivable without a rigorous policy of price stability.

An economic policy can only be considered good if and as long as it is absolutely beneficial and beneficent to mankind.

Consequently, the social market economy commits me to devote my entire attention to and declare war on the efforts of the cartels and absolutely all efforts of any kind to restrict competition.
