Free market does not exist

Or rather, it exists briefly until it is naturally captured by the biggest players.

There is always some industry thats favored by gov due to good reasons.

Military, food, energy, etc.

Which is sensible; the problem is favouring some players so much they capture an entire industry. Free market is a perfect ideal, it can't exist in the real world.
