A few things.  Big business becomes big business with the help of government. Corporatism is not Capitalism

No, big business becomes big business when a business gets, you know, big and wields an inordinate amount of power.  The idea that we the people would somehow be able to control that power through the invisible hand of the market is a pipe dream and not even remotely feasible, and the notion that we'd all be better served by the unfettered pursuit of profits is so ass-backward that it beggars belief.

The argument "if we don't force everyone to play by our rules, everything will go crazy" sounds an awful lot like the arguments religions use.  i.e. "if not for god and the bible to tell you how to be good, everyone will rape and murder"  Just sayin.

As stated before me, you have to take human nature into account.  The reality is that a large chunk of the human population would gladly take everything you own and leave you for dead were it not for the retribution they fear.  Many people lack the empathy needed to self-regulate their behavior, and even with the harsh punishments our laws provide, crime is still abundant.  Believing that everyone will magically treat each other with kindness and respect if we just remove those punishments, especially given that we'd all be so desperate from working for slave wages in this scenario, is probably the most absurd idea of this whole thing.
