Checks and balances. Monopolies aren't capitalism and capitalism does balance itself. The government should simply referee, but it wants to pick winners and losers. That way it can sell more, and for more money.

Monopolies are the result of unchecked capitalism, and no, capitalism doesn't "balance itself". Never has, never will. This is why T.R.s "anti-trust" crusade became necessary, and will become necessary once again after the tea party goons strike it down. Same goes for many of the labor and environmental laws they have targeted.

Some people never learn. They have to put us through it time and again.
Their trust in human nature is amazingly naive.
