So what is the government's sole purpose?
Also this is not the sole purpose of companies.. SpaceX is a trillion dollar company with 0 profit.
The free market has created everything you use the more we turn the keys over to government's the worse things get.
Companies can't get infinite profits because they will be undercut by other companies COMPETING. The government can get infinite power and control though.. they have no competition.

And it got there in part through the evisceration of NASA.

Government funds research that has brought us such advances as moon landings, computers, and the internet. What an odd example you chose in SpaceX

Friedman disagrees.

Which is why we have never needed government regulation of things like food, air, water, shelter, work safety, accessibility, or anything else. The free market provides.
> The government can get infinite power and control though
Which is why in a free society the government is answerable to the people.

This might be your personal ideological creed, but it is not a self-evident axiom you can just assert with zero backing.
> Companies can't get infinite profits because they will be undercut by other companies COMPETING
Then why haven't they?

Are you aware other countries with their own governments exist?
Why are you pretending that utilities exist in a "free market" in any way?
