After a certain size, they should be disallowed further conglomeration. The market's incentive is mergers and anti-competitive behaviors.

Why? There's something to be said for letting dinosaurs get fatter and lazier. Eventually an upstart will come along and be able to move up to the top. In the 1960's no one even dreamed that IBM would lose its dominant position in computers, then along came Microsoft. 20 years from now, it'll be some other company.
