Capitalism of the mom & pop store kind always develops into corporate capitalism
Many companies -> one is more profitable than the others because quality, more exploitative workplace practices, luck, etc. -> it starts expanding and eventually, due to a larger profitability is able to drive other companies out of business or lowers their market share to irrelevancy (unless they engage in profit increasing measures like lowering quality or making stuff addictive) -> expansion and transformation towards a corporate structure, of the kind that libertarians claim is not real capitalism.
It's kinda hilarious how the utopia of the libertarians, of hundreds of thousands of small business tyrants (entrepreneurs) requires constant regulatory interventions to do the authoritarian thing and break up large companies or slow their growth - and countries that do adopt this kind of logic usually end up slacking off on this and end up with governments that end up favoring the big companies, because for example blatant corruption or stuff like international competition - the fear of "if we don't sell our cars, then the Chinese will", forcing continuous expansions, as well as seeking forceful measures such as imperialism, war, aiding the bourgeoise in the class conflict and making your working class suffer under the boot, etc.
And basically everyone is fine with this circus and does not want to change anything because we've been told for 100 years that God will strike us down if we try socialism and for the last 30 years it's become a truism reinforced by "socialism failed, get over it" :troll:
