Monopolists who fear competition and who distrust democracy because it stands for equal opportunity would like to secure their position against small and energetic enterprise.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE

Monopolies are bad because people get bad service for high prices. Competition is good because people get good service for competitive prices.

Monopolies are bad and deserve their reputation when things are static and the monopolies function as toll collectors... But I think they're quite positive when they're dynamic and do something new.
We don't have a monopoly. We have market share. There's a difference.
Companies that are willing to share, to withhold in order to further the growth of the company, willing to try to get a better atmosphere through a demonstration of democratic principles, fairness and cooperation, a better product, those will win in the end.
Competition is always a good thing. It forces us to do our best. A monopoly renders people complacent and satisfied with mediocrity.
We must not tolerate oppressive government or industrial oligarchy in the form of monopolies and cartels.

We protect monopolies with copyright.
