Free Market Competition, Monopolies and the Dynamics of Innovation

In a free market, unlimited human needs often meet providers with limited supply. In such an environment, competition is usually a positive force. It leads to a wider choice, increases the quality of the products offered and lowers their prices. If there is no competition, monopolies can emerge. And that's a problem. Learn more about the fundamental advantages of the competition.
