It seems to me the more something is left to free market the cheaper it is, while the more something is in regulation or outright supplied by government the more expensive it is.

Holds true for almost everything except cell services. The Obama administration put a lot of funding into getting cell towers in rural areas which has definitely contributed to the lower prices we see now. It would be interesting to see how the price of goods/services in government assisted industries change over time, and what could cause the disparities to exist
