| Pro-market theory also argues that technological change is a disruptive force, and tends to abolish monopoly and monopsonistic power in mature business sectors, as with the shrinkage of the Western Union corporation and its power. |
| The focus of most assertions about the existence of exploitation is the socio-economic phenomenon in which people trade their labor or allegiance to a powerful entity, such as the state, a corporation or any other private company, or a trade union. |
| As in Marxist theory, the problem is structural rather than organizational and can coexist with free markets: given their special position in society (controlling an important asset), an interest group can shift the distribution of income in its direction, impoverishing the rest, even though their role serves no reasonable purpose. |
