why we are not free

The real damage is done by those millions who want to 'survive.' The honest men who just want to be left in peace. Those who don’t want their little lives disturbed by anything bigger than themselves. Those with no sides and no causes. Those who won’t take measure of their own strength, for fear of antagonizing their own weakness. Those who don’t like to make waves—or enemies. Those for whom freedom, honour, truth, and principles are only literature. Those who live small, mate small, die small. It’s the reductionist approach to life: if you keep it small, you’ll keep it under control. If you don’t make any noise, the bogeyman won’t find you. But it’s all an illusion, because they die too, those people who roll up their spirits into tiny little balls so as to be safe. Safe?! From what? Life is always on the edge of death; narrow streets lead to the same place as wide avenues, and a little candle burns itself out just like a flaming torch does. I choose my own way to burn.

You can't have a market that's strictly semi free. It's either everything can be traded, or not.

You can have a market that's freer than before, meaning that somethings which were prohibited from be traded is allowed now, but that doesn't automatically mean everything is allowed to be traded (China).

If you don't have political liberty, that means among other things you can't work/trade freely to a certain degree, that automatically means you don't have a free market.

And no, a true free market currently does not exist anywhere in the world, the freest one so far is of course the United States.
