Arguable false.

The freest markets price in all externalities so that the user pays the whole costs and doesn't outsource the externalities to others.

Taxing is one way to help pass on these externalities.

Arguably this makes it a more free market as taxes help make people pay closer to their actual costs and takes part of the burden off those who don't
