To 2021 and Beyond .... current politics

sdskinsfan2001 · 04-13-2021, 01:37 AM

One of the things I'm pretty torn on is monopolies and what is considered a monopoly.

On one side, they've been fought throughout our history, so I get why we don't want them. But then on the other hand, when does it become an easy way to break-up private businesses under the guise of using the M word?

This is a big issue with social media now. Are the Facebooks, Instagrams, etc. monopolies, or just great businesses that Americans want? Why can't conservatives create social media network(s) and/or get conservatives to stop using the current big ones?

Very fine line.
