John McCain, Friend of Monopolies
Wisco
by Wisco  8-21-2008   
 I think there are two reasons McCain invokes Teddy Roosevelt. 1. Roosevelt wasn't a Republican in the modern sense, but a Republican in the original sense -- i.e., a progressive. McCain hopes to signal some that his "maverick" label actually means something. 2. Teddy Roosevelt is the one face on Mt. Rushmore that Americans know the least about. In the end, I'd say it's more 2 than 1.

Democratic Party's Perverse Energy Policies And "Big Oil"
merrie
by merrie  5-24-2008    1
 It would be possible for American oil companies to develop those reserves, play a far bigger role in international markets, and deliver gas at the pump to American consumers at a much lower price, while creating many thousands of jobs for Americans. This would be infinitely preferable to shipping endless billions of dollars to Saudi Arabia, Russia and Venezuela. The largest American oil company, Exxon Mobil, is only the 14th largest in the world, and is dwarfed by the really big oil companies--all owned by foreign governments or government-sponsored monopolies--that dominate the world's oil supply. Because the Democratic Party--aided, sadly, by a handful of Republicans--deliberately keeps gas prices high and our domestic oil companies small by putting most of our reserves off limits to development. China is now drilling in the Caribbean , but our own companies are barred by law from developing large oil fields off the coasts of Florida and California.

Going After OPEC
merrie
by merrie  5-14-2008    1
  The real energy problem, in other words, isn't Big Oil; it's Big Government. As with so many other things, President Reagan got it right when, not even a week after taking office in 1981, he signed Executive Order 12287 decontrolling the price of oil and gas. He then ordered his secretary of energy to focus on encouraging U.S. companies to find and produce more. It worked like a charm, bringing oil prices down sharply and OPEC to its knees. By 1986, after a 74% drop in the price of oil, some even doubted OPEC could survive. Such would-be monopolies look invincible when demand rises and prices follow. But when supply increases, prices fall and members start cheating, they look pathetic. This pretty much describes the history of OPEC. Reagan's strategy of energy decontrol would work again today . But this time it's supplies, not prices, that need to be untethered.

Housing market crumble has Mortgage insurers worried
pokkets
by pokkets  11-9-2007    1
 Mortgage insurers worried? They're not likely to lose their homes. While they say talk about 'Not worrying' The real estate industry knows that talking the market down can be fatal. They consistently try and talk the market up. The Large Mortgage Insurers say they have the cash reserver to keep afloat, and no doubt, get failed smaller insurance companies for a song. I can see another means by which they can entrench more and more complete monopolies. Of course Monopolies are Technically illegal. They just have to corporatize, carefully diversify assets (Isn't a lot of money going to Europe,) and a Rose by another name can still have a stem covered in pricks.

My Corporate Fascist Nightmare
jetcloud
by jetcloud  10-25-2007   
 "There is another ominous sign in the rise of corporate fascism worldwide: "civil liberties are now systematically under attack. For instance police forces in free societies, in return for being allowed to use their new toys of torture such as a Taser (1), have yielded power to private security guards at our airports, bus stations, workplaces and financial institutions. These private, armed guard companies operate beyond the control and oversight of any legislation or the "rule of law" and it appears, have only contempt for "due process" and the principles of habeas corpus or the presumption of innocence in their daily dealings with the public at large" "Benito Mussolini who coined a phrase that describes the term very well: "Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power.""

FCC To Relax Media Ownership Rules?
Forbes Business
by Forbes Business  10-18-2007   
 Could Martin's FCC give a boost to media monopolies? The commission is expected to release its official proposal in mid-November, but nothing has been etched in stone yet. Deep pocketed media conglomerates are obviously all in favor or relaxing the rules. Now the lobbying really heats up. --Brian Wingfield

Cable Cos. Rolling Out Wireless Service
Forbes Business
by Forbes Business  7-18-2007   
 Major cable companies are finally beginning to offer cell-phone service via Sprint Nextel, a partnership that they first announced in November 2005. The strategy is to offer customers a discounted "quadruple" play of cable TV, broadband, home phone and wireless services, something that phone companies like Verizon have begun selling as well. Given that cable companies and landline phone companies usually operate as local monopolies, any competition between the two should be a good thing for consumers. But pushing quadruple play packages will also put a damper on the willingness or likelihood that a customer will switch their service to another company. Which of course is part of the strategy too. - Louis Hau
