It is therefore a curiosity that the most free-market obsessed leaders appear to be those most likely to pursue conflict.
How do you prevent monopolies? Ideas that lead to wealth decay or redistribution seem to be an anathema in modern capitalist societies. Regulation apparently stifles the market. How does the monopoly avoid overproduction? Lean methodologies?
[edit] Edited too much out to the point where it seems curt. I'm interested in free-market proponents' views on monopolies. Also, forgot to mention I found the info about synthetic rubber to be particularly interesting -- Wikipedia has more info including posters.
