> It also makes one reconsider the notion that monopolies are entirely bad. Much like political dictators, they can be exceedingly efficient and have resources (and authority) to do things in spite of opposing interests. People who faced with the narrative that countries have a monopoly on a number of aspects of life find monopolies are not a BAD THING(tm), but that they are bad for a consumer market - as a monopoly eventually blockades aspects of the market.
