You're conflating a bunch of different phenomena together there (right to repair has no particular connection to monopoly, that's a non-sequitur). You're calling everything you don't like 'monopoly'. Also, if we want cheaper 2x4s, I think lowering our tariffs on foreign and in particular Canadian lumber might be a better start. US timber is a highly protected industry! I don't see that 'the people' are demanding the things that you're rhetorically arguing against, based on the evidence of actual US elections. Worth noting that all of the alleged tech 'monopolies' have very high public approval in most surveys- Amazon is consistently the highest rated! This is a big chunk of the problem with basing everything off 'the people'- they are fickle, with a shallow understanding of policy and a very short attention span. If 'the people' really want more antitrust, they should consistently vote for politicians who run on a platform advocating that. A quick look at US electoral history suggests their alleged antitrust desires are not very strong?
