I'm always shocked at how much anti-capitalism and anti-competition there is in the US.
I was taught that the power of consumer choice could reign in markets, but when I look around I see more and more companies working harder and harder to make themselves completely insulated from consumer choice.
Now our darlings are companies that are like massive prisons that promise that everyone will be interned in in the future.
Keep in mind: the only thing a capitalist fears is a truly free market.
The highest ROI for any business is to buy their own politician. That allows you to block competition and other inconveniences at a legislative level.
