Natural Monopolies in Capitalism

Well, yeah.

And even if Rockefeller did become a monopoly, Oil and kerosene would only be good for so much until they found an alternative fuel

Which we probably would have if everyone put the same energy they did to "break" up trusts.

exactly. the whole idea of someone having a monopoly on a natural resource or product is ridiculous in a capitalist system. the competition would merely devise a new method of providing the same service and undercut the company that once had a monopoly... the market can solve its own problems, it is only government that cause disasters
