    A free market prevents a monopoly because it does not allow someone or, some company, to corner the market. There is always someone else that is willing to make or sell a product for the same or lesser price. For instance, in a free market there is not just one phone or cable company providing television or phone service. Other companies are allowed by law to provide those same services. Since the goal of the people who started those companies are out to make money. They are going to provide television and phone at a competitive price to draw consumers to them. Up until the middle 1980’s Bell telephone companies had a monopoly across the United States, until the government came back and split up the AT&T Corporation into separate companies. Now there are companies such as AT&T, Verizon, Qwest, BellSouth, Southwestern Bell, and Ameritech. If there were not people or companies like this willing to start competing companies for their own “greed”. Consumers wouldn’t have a choice and would be forced to all take their business to one company, in turn, creating a monopoly.…

    Ruben on Piracy

    In “ In Defense of Piracy(Well, Some Piracy)”, Matthew Ruben states that it is alright to download mp3 in certain circumstances. He reasons firstly that the current marketing strategies of music are making people paying for albums they would not enjoy. He also reasons that between a dilemma of paying unreasonable price for a single and downloading, there is nothing ethically wrong to download than buying a whole CD just for a track. Thus, he reckons that pirating mp3 single can be a form of protest to the music industry on resisting hype. Though these reasons seem attractive, especially to the general public, Ruben has not taken into account of the devastating effects of piracy has on to the music industry and that piracy is flat, adulterated theft (Gary Locke, 2010).…
