    Sorry man but you have a fundemental lack of knowledge here. I am not sure what you gleaned this from, or who told you this, but this is just factually incorrect.

      I’m not talking quantum physics. I’m saying that (1) in the complete absence of regulations or other barriers, the biggest company in any field will tend to become a monopoly, and (2) in return for regulations against anticompetitive practices protecting your business, you have a responsibility to follow the rest of the rules, which are aimed at protecting consumers / smaller businesses / staff / common resources from you, even if you personally might find them painful. Which of these do you disagree with?

        Let me give you an example of why you are incorrect. I just got bids to do an technical project, and the guy that is him and one employee, cost $9500, and the big company cost $15000. The reason is the big company has so much more overhead that they cost more. So small companies could easily outbid the big companies, but the regulations that are good and useless make it too hard for many small companies to exist. If you want to learn about specific regulations I can tell you about them, but I am done arguing about this.
