    How is a private monopoly a public monopoly?

      A company can achieve such high levels of productivity that it no longer relies on the profit motive, whether it’s privately or publicly owned. When I refer to a “private monopoly,” I’m describing a private enterprise that has effectively transitioned into a publicly regulated entity with a focus on improving societal ills.
