A thing you don't seem to have addressed yet: Free market solutions benefit the buyers who have lots of money, at the expense of those who don't. If gas is $10 a gallon, rich people can still afford it and poor people can't. (Not that this isn't also true in business-as-usual, non-price-gouging/non-emergency capitalism. But the effect is exaggerated.)
