Why are monopolies unfair?
A monopoly exists when a specific individual or enterprise has sufficient control over a particular product or service to determine significantly the terms on which other individuals shall have access to it. Monopolies are thus characterized by a lack of economic competition for the good or service that they provide and a lack of viable substitute goods. The term "monopolize" refers to the process by which a firm gains persistently greater market share than what is expected under perfect competition. Monopolies tend to become less efficient and innovative over time, becoming complacent giants because they do not have to be efficient or innovative to compete in the marketplace. In addition, monopolies often skyrocket their prices to turn a profit, and since there is no competition, consumers have no choice but to continue paying. In order to become monopolies, some companies forced small family-run businesses to shut down, ruining the livelihoods of hundreds of people.
What is mercosur and what is the benefits and drawbacks of it?
Mercosur was set up in March 1991 by Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay under the Treaty of Asuncion. The 1994 Treaty of Ouro Preto gave the body a wider international status and formalised a customs union. Brazil and Argentina are Mercosur's economic giants. Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru are associate members; they can join free-trade agreements but remain outside the bloc's customs union. Moves to include Chile as a full member were suspended after Santiago signed a free-trade deal with the US in 2002. Mercosur tariff policies regulate imports and exports and the bloc can arbitrate in trade disputes among its members. In the longer term, Mercosur aims to create a continent-wide free-trade area, and the creation of a Mercosur development bank has been mooted. from: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/5195834.stm more info on the above website
