The main and most important monopolies are, in this order,

1. Apple

2. Google

3. Amazon

> finance, medical education and law

Each of the above companies reaches deep into finance. Google and Apple capture real world payments on their devices, take 30% on top of any app software, limit or own the web, etc.

They're each trying to break into medical, with big medical endeavors underway right now.

Forget textbooks. Look at the fight between Google and Apple for the classroom.

These companies have their own film studios, for goodness sake. How the hell did we let that happen? Lord of the Rings is Amazon -- What?!
