    Yes but the statement was “this is how free markets always end”. And I’m just wondering if the commenter has actually been around to see “free markets ending.”

      I think they were less talking about them ending as much as them tending towards the monopoly state over time.

        Got it. Saying “this is how free markets always end” if they meant “free markets tends to move towards monopolies” confused me.
