Nope. By way of argument, Milton Friedman’s free market fundamentalism justified the Bork doctrine. It ended anti-trust. That legal precedent has destroyed entire systems of markets as companies (vertically) consolidated their sectors. To riff on Arthur C Clarke, “any sufficiently large corporation is indistinguishable from totalitarian rule”.

The interests of such corporate giants, their scale in the economy, has all the negative consequences they assign to government.
