So far I go with the Socialists as to think it a pretty general rule that, where monopoly is necessary, it is better in public hands.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We don't have a monopoly. We have market share. There's a difference.
Before the monopoly should be permitted, there must be reason to believe it will do some good - for society, and not just for monopoly holders.
Monopoly controls have been the exception in free societies; they have been the rule in closed societies.
I don't think it's good in any business for anyone to have a monopoly. On the other hand, you need to have size to get costs down.
Competition is always a good thing. It forces us to do our best. A monopoly renders people complacent and satisfied with mediocrity.
I don't know what a monopoly is until somebody tells me.
Take away the government's monopoly, and private groups will do it better.
Monopolies are bad because people get bad service for high prices. Competition is good because people get good service for competitive prices.
I think it's wrong that only one company makes the game Monopoly.
I'm not denying that monopolies are terrible things, but I am denying that it is readily easy to resolve them through legislation of that nature.
