        You actually mentioned cooperation between pseudo-market
        actors and the government. You pretty much answered your own
        question and refuted your own argument. 

        Now, the standard 'economic' answer for the hypothetical
        case of a real free market (which never existed, nor of
        course exists today) is that as the profits for a few
        businesses or 'cartel' increase, other people will start
        *competing* with them.

        Plis, a free society also does have strong
        cultural requirements. For instance while fake
        libertarians, especially the randroid-americunt kind
        worship big business, a really libertarian culture
        requires distrust of all kinds of concentration of power,
        including economic power.

        Well, your own example showed what regulation does...to
        increase the power of fascist/corporatists business.  (the kind
        of business Sean Lynch loves!) 

        If on the other hand you are an anarchist who thinks that the
        only solution is for the 'right' and 'good' people to control
        the state, then please...do some more homework =P
