Message | We oppose legalised monopolies that use the power of government to prevent competition. |
Date | 17:15:12, October 03, 2009 CET | From | Liberal Democratic Party of Badara | To | Debating the Monopoly Ban |
Message | On the contrary, monopolies are inherently anti-competitive and pose a threat to the free market system. We therefore support this motion. |
Date | 09:25:45, October 04, 2009 CET | From | Populist Liberation Animals Environment | To | Debating the Monopoly Ban |
Message | Since this proposal does not define a monopoly, and therefore includes both legalised monopoly and monopoly gained through the free market without state involvement, we oppose this. Monopoly on the free market is fine, it is a reward for satisfying consumers. |
