          that wouldn’t be a free market

          Yes it would, the banks are free to buy the influence of legislators.

          The idea of a free market means that working hard makes you go farther.

          No, that’s just a vague platitude, you might as well say that a free market is when happiness and icecream.

          What we have is an oligarchy dicatorship

          A dictatorship of capital, if you will.
