There has to be a limit...And there used to be with anti-trust laws...
Look at the Kraft company...They have bought up so many competing products in so many areas that there is no possibility of competition...
Time Warner and Comcast...Who are you going to bargain with for a cheaper cable connection...
In my town, one car dealer has bought up all the various car dealerships of all the brands and the ones in the nearest towns...You think you are going to negotiate with someone for a better price???
All the manufacturers belong to unions...NOT labor unions...Manufacturer unions...All the landlords belong to unions...The big box stores belong to their own unions...
In my area one gas station owner bought up most of the gas stations in this city and most of those going 70 miles north...They control the gas prices for everyone...
All this commercial and industrial unionization has led to the disgusting wage structure that is going on in the U.S. right now...
The result is the rich get very rich while the former middle class turns to the gov't for assistance...And with those with the money paying off the politicians, it's an ugly picture...
When people began staying home and not voting they let the left take over, and no one can be blamed for that except for the stubborn jackasses who decided they didn’t like the Republican, so they wouldn’t vote.
Now that they are reaping the consequences of their stubborn behavior and lack of voting.....then they want to blame the corporations that took over. If you don’t like what is happening get involved and change it.
Don’t buy cable if you think it’s too expensive, we speak with our money and our vote.
