In a real free market companies will lobby the government to bail them out.

that wouldn't be a free market. The idea of a free market means that working hard makes you go farther. But our economy punishes hard work and rewards constant failure.

I understand what you're saying, but what a free market is supposed to be on paper isn't what we have. What we have is an oligarchy dicatorship.
