Capitalism says it's about competition. Capitalism as practiced is about monopoly and monopsony. Antitrust legislation can keep competition meaningful. The Chicago school convinced the government not to.
This is a tough book. It's a catalog of some of the ways big market players use their dominance to prevent competition and suck value out of creators. It's also a sobering look at how governments help them with, Doctorow and Giblin suggest, democracy-distorting results.
A powerful and depressing book.
