That is patently ridiculous. The vast majority of firms that you give your dollars too have direct competitors. They may not prefer to have competitors, but neither do you when applying for jobs or bidding on a house, that is pretty basic human nature.

Wait, so you say 'that is patently ridiculous', then completely agree with me while trying to add your own little spin on it? Okay bud.

They have what is generally considered an unfair advantage though.

Typically at least effects of scale and cartel-like contracts with other major players.
