You make a good point, and I think civil motivation is a major role of government. I would hate to see the world continue in its feudal system of wage-slavery, and I don't see the free market producing an advocate for human advancement. Our current systems have fostered personal gain over collective gain, and a freer market would do the same with more intensity.
