In countries where monopolies are forbidden, internet costs about €20 per month

I'm guessing OP is paying about $80 lol

It’s a Red Queen’s Race.

Well, in our country," said Alice, still panting a little, "you'd generally get to somewhere else—if you run very fast for a long time, as we've been doing."

"A slow sort of country!" said the Queen. "Now, here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place. If you want to get somewhere else, you must run at least twice as fast as that!"

Well the important thing is to make sure everyone knows it's impossible to make any sort of positive change, ever.

Clowns lol

Whoever said anything about that? You can make positive changes, just don’t expect them to be permanent. Nothing is permanent. That’s life! Eventually we all die.

If you have a competent anti-monopolistic government, you can make positive change faster than the market makes negative change.

This defeatist attitude is immature and unnecessary. Please refrain from posting such negative comments in the future.
