Well, it makes some sense to talk about an opposition if our rulers insist on talking about the free market.

Is the public-private distinction even relevant anymore? If 
neoliberalism has accomplished anything, it has meant the combining of 
and blurring the lines between capital's functions (production/profit) 
and the state 's functions (capture/reorganization). Capital now has 
its own reterritorializing arms (public relations, nonprofits, 
foundations) while the state operates by value-producing and 
enterprise principles. I don't think it makes much sense to insist on 
the opposition.
