True, but a monopoly due to beating the competition with fair business practices is not the same as the monopoly targeted by anti-trust laws. Until a genuine competitor beats the honest monopoly fair and square, they stand at the top. Government work usually is fertile ground for the wrong type of monopoly, so I am very happy to see SpaceX disrupt this field. SpaceX's rockets are upwards of $40 million a launch, and the Lockheed F35 fighter price is going to keep climbing upwards of $200 million per fighter. Now let's see another SpaceX or similar innovative company step in to the military weapons system market! This should, but it will not translate to less taxes for the average Joe.
