You know how corporations acquire other corporations and the government dramatically reviews it for a period of time and then allows it? Trust busting is like that, but in reverse. We just need to do the opposite of what we do now. Instead of watching corporations acquire each other and get bigger, we should be busting them apart into separate entities.

Specifically, it’s supposed to prevent business agreements and practices that are intended to hinder the ability of others to be competitive or do their own business. IOW, it prevents monopolies and industry consolidation.

Here are a few examples of why robust anti-trust laws are needed, and need to be enforced:

1. Everything Walmart has ever done.

2. Everything Amazon has ever done.

3. ISPs preventing competitors from moving into their territory so they can keep prices artificially high and quality of service low.

4. Everything Microsoft has ever done with Windows and what they’re currently trying to do with their gaming division.

5. The way Apple operates their App Store.

6. Everything Nestle has ever done.

7. Everything Google has been doing.
