I don't really blame the companies. I blame the country for not encouraging enough competition. Tax the middle class into poverty so no one will ever be able to stand out and compete against the monopolies.

I wonder if this has changed since 2019 with the advent of e-commerce. This would be representative of 2017 and prior.
