Reply To: Why is MK Litzman supporting a monopoly?

Joseph,
what is your source that the Torah is not opposed to monopolies? We must be very precise when quoting halachah or we run into the danger of speaking like the reform who say the torah believes in everything they want it to under some vague idea of tikkun olam or kavod habriyot.
You said “depending on the circumstances”, this detail can make all the difference in defining a monopoly. I hope you don’t mean the Torah would be OK with everything being a monopoly?
I find it hard to believe the Torah would support a system that has been proven to fail whenever tried and is supported mostly by so called “liberals” who are more likely to be anti semitic and anti rich. Do you support Obama care?
