Of course. Look at the data: West Germany vs East Germany and South Korea vs North Korea.

Yes, a free market enables people to realize the full potential of their talents without any government restrictions

This is 19th century thinking: there is no economy today in the world without any government interaction and some sort of social network

This only applies up to a point, of course free markets have been more beneficial to humankind than a central planning market society, but for markets to work some regulations and rule of engagement are needed too for a working society. Even the "free-wheeling" USA has regulations and a social safety net.

The statement is about a relative comparison and marginally making the market freer in removing a rule / regulation will grow the economy, the transition of the East-European countries after the fall of the Berlin Wall is a striking convincing example.

Real freedom can only be realized within the government tax gulags.
