Monopolies

Scottish philosopher and economist Adam Smith formulated in his book the immense benefits that will accrue to the economy when there is competition in a free market. These words are considered sacred for large parts of the right in Israel, as right-wing parties adhere to this principle, which is one of the fundamental principles of capitalism.

The chairman of the Economic Party goes on the offensive against Israel's economic system: "Instead of competition, we got markets controlled by monopolies." According to him, both the right and the left have failed, turning the state into a mechanism that serves pressure groups instead of citizens. So how do we get out of the mud?
