I would have to agree with the most monopolies are government created because, at least in the US, there are laws that actively try to prevent a free market monopoly. Plus, it's much more difficult to create a market-based monopoly because in a somewhat free market it creates an opportunity for a competitor to take advantage of factors that only monopolies tend to have if they are not government created. But I don't see the claim of government monopolies > free market monopolies you reference.
