Markets are mechanisms for coordinating the set of connections of production operations that are distributed throughout the whole economic system. Thus, the market is the predominant and determining link between producers
of goods and services and consumers. Accordingly, markets, as an exchange of goods
and services that takes place as a result of buyers and sellers interactions, are generally considered the most efficient allocator of resources in the market economy.

due to various reasons. One such social problem is illegal drugs. Another example is environmental such as pollutions. For an
additional example for a social problem, where supply and demand is not allowed to freely function, read the"Last Word" feature o
