> Historically, virtually all monopolies have been the result of government interference I'm with you on this. In general, the state (by definition) functions to protect the interests of the politically dominant class, which, under capitalism, is the owning class. From the haymarket massacre to Biden's strike breaking shenanigans, this is absolutely beyond dispute. The state will always facilitate monopolies. The only way to get rid of monopolies is for the workers to organize and overthrow the dictatorship of the owning class. Until that happens, it's all Disney, Amazon, and pseudo democracy.
