The oppressiveness of monopoly seems to disappear when the system is supposed to become universal: those who suffer as consumers recouping themselves as producers. But theory suggests that if each industry were controlled by a monopoly, great instability of value would result; not only on account of the "wars," perhaps interminable, between monopolists of rival...
