You have to obey the government as the free market utopia did not get actualized yet (and never will).

I don't think I ever used the word utopia. I don't believe in utopias as long as people are human. The difference between a free market and what you want is that if I don't like Walmart decisions I can walk away. If I don't like government decisions and walk away they throw me in jail. It's what your utopian government regulators do.

It is utopian to think that the government can or should go away.
