Quote:Big mega corporations that have bought up the business only exist in industries with heavy regulation, think about it. Cable, Power, Phone and Retail are the big mega corporations, they all receive support from the government allowing them to play by a different set of rules.

 

You don't have one big mega lawn service buying out all the little guys, there's not one big mega dealership shutting down all the other car dealers, there's tons of industry where competition drives wages up and prices down every day. 

there were monopolies that brought about regulations in the past. Oil, Rail? It's just different now because our congress allows its members to accept legal bribes in exchange for the corporations to write their own "regulations" I know we agree on that. But I don't think it's accurate that monopolies only exist but of gov involvement. We still have them, they are just legal now. I hope its clear I'm using monopolies general.
