Well then, go ahead and argue your point. How is the concept that people are capable of trading as free rational agents on a free market, somehow essential to the concept that an individual's freedom is the most important value a government should defend and uphold?

Heck, I think that I could even argue that if left alone on a free market to compete against other rational agents, some individuals will find their freedom severely reduced against other, more powerfull agents.
