I disagree with your opinion that we are nowhere near there... Just look at what the oligopoly practices of 'big banks' that were 'too big to fail' did to the global economy. They ALL used their money to influence the regulatory rules and the governments that governed them. Goldman Sachs was the worse at this, they were shameless in putting their ex employees into key White House positions. They built a gated community around themselves to protect their giant profits and when it all went south, the TAX PAYERS, US, WE PAID FOR THAT.
