Yes. Because a private company taking advantage of corrupt actors in a broken market means that said company could not exist at all in a functioning free market. Because it would be too expensive. We have no examples where private companies worked in parallel to build huge, expensive markets from the ground up. Like say the CAR market itself. Or the cell phone. Or the smartphone... No, a Wise Government must come in and say "let there be market"...
