Libertarians are NOT about rich corporations

Libertarians are mostly about small businesses. We want the government out of business affairs so that it's easier for small businesses to flourish.

Lefties always argue that "libertarians only care about the big corporations. without the government restricting them, they will monopolize and rule the world.". In fact it's the opposite. The big corporations love these restrictions because they are making it really hard for small businesses to even get off the ground, let alone compete with them.

Basically, libertarians want to make it easier for people to start their own businesses, and have less people relying on corporations for their salaries. More businesses means more competion, and a less crowded job market which makes it a lot harder companies to overwork and underpay their employees.

when get sufficiently large, they gain so much power they are able to affect the economy, and thus they most likely get government support, or they will have the funds to lobby themselves to whatever they want.
Also, a monopoly is never the best alternative for the majority, no matter how it has become a monopoly. And i know monopolies aren't evil, but they're profit maximizing, just like everybody else, and when you're in a position where you are the sole provider of a type of product, that leaves everybody worse off (except for the company/organization that has the monopoly).

anyway, waht i was referring to was that a company got the rights to be the sole provider of say, a drug, for x number of years when they invented it, because they deserve to get the money back they invested. Now, this may be economically sensible, since it should increase the will to invest, but is it very free market'y? it certainly doesn't mean that the general population will get the product the cheapest.
