What form of legal monopolies still exist today?
Perhaps a better question might be "why do monopolies arise" however the current question will do just fine. And better yet, why can they arise in a democratic nation. Here is a summary that answers the monopoly question:A. A monopoly is a company that is the sole seller of a product without close substitutes. A monopoly is able to remain as such in a market only if there are barriers to entry of that market. Basically we have a situation where other companies cannot compete with the monopoly company. There are several reasons for these barriers in an open market society:A1. A key resource of a product is owned by one company. This is rare but as an example, De Beers owns 80% of the diamond mines in South Africa and thus controls the diamond market.A2. The government has given the monopoly company the sole exclusive rightto produce & sell a product. This is common but the monopoly has a 20 year time limit because the US Patent Office has awarded the company a patent. The long term benefit of patent laws is to enhance creativity and intellectual achievement.A3. A natural monopoly arises when a single company can supply a good such as water at a lessor price than two or more other companies can. ( here we have a government overseer dept. to safeguard a runaway market ).
What characteristics of the software industry do you think created the monopoly market that microsoft's operating systems enjoy?
I don't think that it's so much an issue with the software industry as free-market capitalism in and of itself, as Microsoft is hardly the only monopoly in US history not to mention the history of capitalism. It doesn't help when the company in question is able to manipulate the relevant legal and regulatory environment through corruption and collusion even when it *is* an acknowledged monopolist. Microsoft really is guilty of all of the above. The problem, though, is which company is not, and would not be, if given the same opportunity as Microsoft. It depends on the philosophy of the corporate management, some CEOs believe that monopolistic practices are good for their company and to an extent good for the consumer, some don't. But you can't really tell who believes what until they're given a chance. Talk is cheap. Show me a company and a management team which has an opportunity to develop a monopoly which does not do so, and then maybe I'll believe that they won't do it if given the chance.
