In that sense 1. is just fantastical wishful thinking. There's absolutely no way for complete free markets to exist without any sort of governmental interdiction to set rules and regulations, in the bare minimum for societal safety measures, and on a larger scope to try to minimise societal damage caused by an absolute free market. A complete free market would allow companies to sell toxic products (including food), would allow slave labour, would allow price dumping and other anti-competitive practices, so on and so forth. Absolute free marketism is as fantastical as believing in utopian Communism.
