| Free markets work great if there is competition. But what happens to all free markets is that one person or company always comes out on top. At some point economies of scale drive the small company out of business and the large corporation eventually drives toward monopoly status. At various points in this nation's history, we've created regulation to limit the power of large corporation. Anti-trust laws were put in place to make sure companies didn't get so large that they became anti-competitive. In the last 30 years, we've seen an unprecedented rise of the large corporation. Wall Street rewards companies that strive for monopoly status. People love the returns on their investments as a result. Since Reagan came into office, the large corporation has become the symbol of American Capitalism. The larger the corporation, the better. After a wave of anti-trust breakups after WWII, there hasn't been a significant one since the late 70s. Today, we have huge corporations of which the robber barons of the late 19th century could have only dreamed of. These corporations push anti-competitive policies all aimed at maximizing profits. They've become so big that the failure of two or three of them could collapse the entire US economy. What's even worse is that these corporations have become intertwined with the US political system. To get elected to the House or Senate and, most of all, the Presidency, you have to be in good favor with these mega-corporations because they in essence fund the campaign. It should be of no surprise that the Federal government is nothing more than an arm of corporate America. It doesn't matter whether they're Republican or Democratic, they are essentially bought an paid for by corporate America.The loser in all of this is middle class America which has seen a drop in wealth not seen since the Great Depression. The divide between rich and poor has accelerated in the last 25 years to the point where the board rooms in Manhattan have become totally disconnected from main street America. Not only do they not understand main street, they wish to exploit it for their own financial gain. This is what I believe Moore is railing on. It's not the free markets or capitalism specifically but what they've morphed into over the last 30 years. |
