"Consolidation is what you worry about, but consolidation is also a natural trend in mature markets that have too many suppliers."

Again, consolidation gives you companies that are too big to fail. Any company that reaches that status should be regulated as a monopoly. The alternative is to put the economy in the hands of people who won't act responsibly. As we have seen. If they just risk themselves and their employees, no problem. Let them go wild.

When they can take down the global economy, big problem.

>Speaking of consolidation, how come the consolidation of labor into the hands of the few is a good thing?

Who said it was? It certainly isn't. But several hundred thousand, or really millions, of employees, isn't "the hands of the few."
