By your logic, if His Majesty The King applies his laws equally to everyone, then it's a free market?
Any organization which is tax-funded has inequality and discrimination built in. Some are net tax payers, others are net tax receivers. Then, net tax receivers dictate why it's good and honest for them not to pay, but receive and why it's good and honest for them to extract payment from others. And under what "regulations". Obviously, tax-funded regulations cannot be applied indiscriminately to all participants.
Free market is not about equality. It's about ability to protect property against anyone's opinion. Bitcoin and the internet themselves are a fine example of a nearly free market: no matter what you think of me and no matter what I think of you, we both can avoid each other and no one can take each other's coins. But if we don't have such technology and have to keep our cash in a bank, then we both depend on someone's opinion how the money should be used and how much we can spend and where.
