In a mixed / hybrid economic system, both state and private companies operate in the production and sale of goods and services. State action occurs through state-owned companies in strategic sectors, such as oil production, while private production occurs in the most diverse types of markets. It is noteworthy that in a mixed or hybrid economy, the state also acts as a regulator of productive activity in the private sphere, in order to ensure that the economic environment is suitable for transactions. Most capitalist economies are considered hybrid economies, including the US.
I don't think most people are really in a position to pay higher for a lesser produced product. Now for some products such as produce, people have already shown they are willing to pay the higher price for organic produce so for some products no, others yes it really depends on how it benefit's the consumer.
