Yes. The free market is simply a system where there are no checks and balances placed on the owners of capital. In a free market system the producers naturally gravitate to monopoly or cartel status (cartels differ from monopolies solely in the fact that the profit pool is 3-5 instead of 1) with none of the checks and balances to enure that customers don't get fucked over. You want to see the free market in action, look at ancient Rome.
Agreed.

Socialism well practised is far, far better at protecting individual liberties than any form of profit driven economic system that will ever be devised. Don't kid yourself otherwise.
Why would it be?
