Re: "The reason that anti-trust laws were put into place was to make it more difficult for monopolists to abuse power." Absolutely correct! (And a little-know fact that a lot of people misinterpret. Monopolies, per se, are not made illegal, it's the misuse of Monopoly Power in the markets that is proscribed and sanctioned.) Re: "When government is the monopoly" And how would you get around that? Have more then one government governing the same area? (Would they just conflict with each other?)
