    There are ways, but they’re even less effective and impractical than they were when companies weren’t all merged together and government wasn’t flooded with lobbyist dollars. Now industries are dominated by 2-3 major players who collude on prices through “algorithms” and the government is openly for sale to the top bidder. Money completely rules all, guess who has more money. That’s the only thing that talks “peacefully” now.
