The evening after the massacre at Orlando's Pulse nightclub, a California pastor took the opportunity to preach that "God said: When you find a sodomite, put them to death.'" A video of the sermon was uploaded by the church, then deleted "for violating YouTube's policy on hate speech." A copy of the video uploaded by someone else, describing the sermon as "despicable," was allowed to remain.

Monopoly public utilities should be regulated or nationalized.
Businesses that don't want to be regulated or nationalized merely have to avoid becoming monopoly public utilities, its not that hard.

Only natural monopolies like water, gas, sewer, electricity, internet access. If your "monopoly" is simply because you do a better job than everyone else, the government should stay out of the way.
That said, if your monopoly comes from buying all your competetitors, government should step in and prevent it from happening.
