Markets don't work without states providing requisites. Laws, courts, monopolies on the use of force, stable mediums of exchange and various non-market goods, though of course people disagree about what they precisely are.

All of that strikes me as interference. The only way to have a truly free market is with anarchy, and, well....given the vast range of difference between Actually Existing Anarchy (Somalia, Afghanistan) and Anarchy as Imagined by 19th Century Philosophers, that does not seem an especially enticing idea.
