To be fair. Government is a lot older than 'the marketplace'. Not to mention the lots of other things government does (or should) do, that have no relation to 'the market'.
The creeping idea that everything must service 'the (hallowed) market' is rather off putting I think. It is of course what 'the market' would want. The market, what there is if it, is here to serve us, not the other way around.
