How Oligopolies Play Your Wallet

Your entire life is being manipulated by a few giant companies playing 4D chess with your wallet.

It all comes down to market structure. In perfect competition, businesses are desperate and broke,

but monopolies are living the dream because they control the supply and set the price.

The real drama happens in oligopolies, where firms use Game Theory to predict every move their

rivals make. They find the Nash Equilibrium so nobody has an incentive to change,

then they use price discrimination to extract every last cent of your consumer surplus.

If you aren't setting the price, you are the one being played.
