Response to What is the Price Mechanism?

from Richard Onyai (jadoch929@hotmail.com)
The price mechanism is a system of determination of prices and resoucre allocation. It operates in a free market situation where forces of demand and supply dictate prices. Both producers and consumers base their respective production and consumption plans on the prevailing market price. When consumers pay a price for a commodity, they motivate the producer of that commodity and hence more of the same is produced and vice versa. The price paid becomes a vote for more production. Thus resources are channelled there!
