    This is the end game for corporations in a capitalist economy. You start with a bunch of little companies. They eventually winnow themselves out until there’s only a few companies. Those companies then form a monopoly or a cartel and then they dictate prices to the consumers. All the while they’re decreasing their costs and providing the least amount of product for the highest price.

    It’s a race to the bottom. Unfortunately this system is all we’ve got.
