Of course I do. That is different than saying that all landowners, factory owners, tea shop owners, craftsmen, authors, etc., are evil and must be destroyed because they are better off than we are.

That was not an anti free market move. England set up a legal monopoly on tea selling for the British East India Company. The people who supported dumping the tea wanted (among other things) a free market in tea.
