A free market is great and all, but what happens when corporations become too powerful and start buying large swaths of land, put shit in the water, or enforce monopolies and price fixing in order to keep smaller businesses out?

Because corporations ensure politicians put in retardedly complicated laws that make starting a business an absolute chore. Not to mention the tax breaks that corporations benefit from take an army of accountants and lawyers
How about this. Euthanization of all psychopaths and sociopaths at early age, and free market would work as it should

we make an example out of them
it's not meddling in the market if something bad is to happen to people who abuse the system during the night

A company that does all of those things will quickly go broke, in a genuine free market complete monopolisation would never happen, because there will always be competition because a large number of people genuinely enjoy it. Government regulations are unnecessary

According to Erich Fromm there are two ways: either people will rebel in violent ways or they will become so atrophied by the system, that they will no longer be able to develop the skills to maintain it. Collapse is inevitable.

but Walmart uses politicians to ensure that Welfare, trade deals, and min wage laws can push out their competitors
