Monopoly is characterized by lack of competition allowing that
enterprise for business to have significant market power, that

AT&T and Microsoft were monopoly's at one point.
The Sherman Antitrust act , passed in 1890, banned trust and
monopolistic combinations that hammered interstate and

8. Customer Reviews
While this might at first
appear like a gimic,
Monopoly with
electronic banking
makes, setup, cleanup
and playing so much
easier.
No money to count out.
Transactions are done
through the well
thought out banking
calculator.
It's also a nice touch
that the money has
been increased to
thousands and millions
to account for inflation.
