 [No title]
In any community that is organized on the price system, with investment and business enterprise, habitual unemployment of the available industrial plant and workmen, in whole or in part, appears to be the indispensable condition without which tolerable conditions of life cannot be maintained.
Price is of the essence of the case, whereas livelihood is not.
This industrial system runs on as an inclusive organization of many and diverse interlocking me-[53]chanical processes, interdependent and balanced among themselves in such a way that the due working of any part of it is conditioned on the due working of all the rest.

 Price system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term Price system is used to describe any Economic system whatsoever that effects its distribution of goods and services by means of goods and services having prices and employing any form of debt tokens, or money.
A Price system may be either a fixed price system where prices are set by a government or it may be a free price system where prices are left to float freely as determined by unregulated supply and demand.
From its beginnings the price system has evolved into the system of global capitalism that is present in the early 21st century.

 Money and the Price System
And the modern money system is in fact losing almost daily its aspect, however much it may at one time have been true, of a medium of exchange, and becoming more and more a ticket system by which people, who are not exchanging their production, can draw from that central pool of wealth.
The fact that the system is self-liquidating, that it will go on working more or less indefinitely is self-evident; and this is the assumption of the classical economists, one to which they adhere strenuously for reasons which I shall want to touch on.
The real price that you are being asked to pay for the things you use in your daily life is what you do in fact pay, plus 'What the system says you ought to pay'; and 'what you ought to pay is the debt'.

 Friedrich von Hayek and the Price System
By using prices (values) in which all the relevant information is concentrated; and by adjusting the quantities one by one, he can appropriately rearrange his dispositions without having to solve the whole puzzle ab initio, or without needing at any stage to survey it at once in all its ramifications.
Fundamentally, in a system where the knowledge of the relevant facts is dispersed among many people, prices can act to coordinate the separate actions of different people in the same way as subjective values help the individual to coordinate the parts of his plan.
The price system is just one of those formations which man has learned to use (though he is still very far from having learned to make the best use of it) after he had stumbled upon it without understanding it.

 Social Credit - Part 2, Chapter 2: The Nature of Price
While prices have not fallen from this cause to anything like the extent that they rose under a contrary policy, the restriction of credit which has been in operation since 1920, did undoubtedly tend to arrest the spectacular rise in prices which was in progress at the time of its initiation.
Now any attempt, by current financial methods, to reduce prices (or even to stabilise them, as the phrase goes) is a mathematical absurdity unless the cost of this stabilisation, or lowering of prices, is met from some extraneous source.
The efforts to control prices by manipulating credit along orthodox lines culminated in the unmanageable fall of prices which began in 1928, a fall which complicated, although it did not cause, the financial crisis of 1929 in which the world is still (1933) involved.

 Economics in One Lesson, The Lesson Applied, How the Price System Works
Prices are determined by supply and demand, and demand is determined by how intensely people want a commodity and what they have to offer in exchange for it.
The private enterprise system, then, might be compared to thousands of machines, each regulated by its own quasi-automatic governor, yet with these machines and their governors all interconnected and influencing each other, so that they act in effect like one great machine.
For they are solved by a system under which each consumer makes his own demand and casts a fresh vote, or a dozen fresh votes, every day; whereas bureaucrats would try to solve it by having made for the consumers, not what the consumers themselves wanted, but what the bureaucrats decided was good for them.

 Price marking system - Patent 4529871
The cost of such a manual price marking system has been estimated by some to be as much as between 1 and 1.5 percent of the gross revenues of a retail supermarket.

 Price Controls Are No Answer to Isabel
Actually, price controls are among the worst attacks that a government can levy not only against producers but also against the consuming public.
By serving as the market’s information-transmission system, the price system is actually the lifeblood of a market economy.

 Free price system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Through the free price system, supplies are rationed, income is distributed, and resources are allocated.
A free price system contrasts with a fixed price system where prices are set by government, within a controlled market or planned economy.
Rather than prices being set by the state, as in a command economy with a fixed price system, prices are determined in a decentralized fashion by trades that occur as a result of sellers' asking prices matching buyers' bid prices as a result of subjective value judgement in a market economy.

 The Price System: Rationing and Allocating Resources
Prices perform two major roles in market systems: 1) rationing the available goods and services, and 2) determining which goods and services are produced and how they're produced.
This price rationing function answers the third basic question that economic systems must address: who gets the goods and services that are produced.
While this may be true for a handful of goods, virtually all of the millions of goods and services exchanged in any economic system are not freely available.

Natural-gas prices, at $2 to $3 per million British thermal units a year ago, are now trading on the spot market at around $40 to $60, by far the highest level in the country.
