I completely agree with you that the results (monopolies and oligopolies) are undesirable, and you’re doing a great job of explaining why the results are undesirable. But you’re not explaining why you think monopolies and oligopolies are not the natural outcome of a free market. The free market is not a good thing.
What are you talking about, this is the natural conclusion of a free market.
Oh won’t someone please think of the poor nazis?
Liberals and fascists, name a more iconic duo
Don’t forget trans people. On MSNBC Joe Scarborough was already priming his audience for going after them next election.
Here’s an example of a deeply red state passing very left wing policies by ballot measure. Left wing ideas enjoy broad popular support, the democrats would do well adopting some of them. I strongly suggest you look at some reputable polling sources to test your views regarding the American electorate.
I literally see voters saying the Democrats were too left leaning
Could you elaborate on this? I’m confused as to what those voters mean. Polling suggests that actual left wing ideas (universal health cares, higher minimum wage, etc etc) enjoy broad popular support. For example, Missouri (a deeply red state) passed a higher minimum wage and paid sick leave by ballot measure. Are these voters unaware of what “left wing” means, or are they unaware of public opinion?
If only someone had warned us in 1867, 1885, and 1894!
