I suggest you look up the words, "monopolistic practices" and do some reading, then, thanks for the heads up.
I'm a conservative. You appear to want to post on a Web site favorig libertarian religio-philosophy.
There is no such thing as a monopoly, just like there is no such thing as price-gouging, in a free market. Without backing from the government, no one can make you pay higher prices against your will. And even with government backing, it’ll still hurt any enterprise to set prices above the market level.
The term “monopolistic practices” is a truly ambiguous concept. The only true monopoly that can exist is that which is mandated by government (cable, telephone, water, electricity). It cannot happen in any other way, because someone can always offer an alternative with government not in the way.
Now, a company can become “like a monopoly” by sheer popularity. Microsoft and Google come close to these in the computer world. But both arrive at their incredible presence because people willing buy their product, which is not mandated to be purchased, by government. Notice how Apple Computer is now coming back, or how Linux is making inroads? Microsoft can be said to have “monopolistic practices” but is certainly not a monopoly, nor is it inherently bad as a “monopolisticly practicing” company.
Get over yourself.
