    Oh it’s a free market alright.

    It’s not fair, but it is free.

      You could use that reasoning to justify that anything is a free market. The government is free to pass laws, the people are free to overthrow it.

      Kind of. It’s artificially inflated by private parties lobbying and achieving regulatory capture to manipulate the market by constricting supply.
