"Only a monopolist could study a business and ruin it by giving away products"
- Scott McNealy
About this Quote
In this quote, Scott McNealy is highlighting the negative impact of monopolies on companies. He recommends that just a monopolist, somebody who has complete control over a specific market, would have the power to study an organization and eventually damage it by distributing products totally free. This is because monopolies have the ability to set rates and control the supply of items, making it challenging for smaller sized organizations to complete. By giving away products free of charge, the monopolist is basically undercutting the competition and driving them out of company. McNealy's declaration functions as a cautionary tip of the risks of monopolies and their prospective to harm the economy.
