The "Free Market" is what takes place in the absence of government intervention. The 1200+ page Cap and Trade bill, pushed through and supported almost exclusively by the Democrats in congress, is not the "Free Market".
Cap and Trade is a huge tax on proven energy sources to pay for subsidies to marginal, but politically correct "green" energy sources.
However, the merging of government and industry is a key ingredient for fascism, so I guess you are on the right track in using that term.
