I've been debating a libertarian and ran in the whole the free market protects the individual from the will of the masses (democracy) and got to thinking that is 100% bullshit. The more people buy from a capitalist the more wealth that capitalist accumulates thus more advantage that capitalist has in the markets and the consumers that wants to consume for a capitalist with a minority share of the market has even less say then the regular consumer.

Not that anyone of this really matters as the rights of a consumers are very limited but I just came to realization libertarians are completely full of shit and their 'free' market just doesn't make any sense at all and can only work as advertised in their own weird logic.
