W/O government subsidized black ops, like pandemics; platform monopolies are experiencing real world conditions. But no worries; robots and high management algorithms, are going to be cutting even more jobs than you can imagine[Monopolies R U.S.].
Did you mean "monopolies R: “U.S.” ", or " monopolies: “Rus.” "?
Or perhaps both?
Financial capitalism have platform monopolies supporting the FIRE sector.
[Finance, Insurance, and Real Estate = Unearned Income.
The public monopoly infrastructure[roads, bridges, libraries, health care, banking, electricity, gas, education from cradle to grave, research and development, and more - tend to be privately owned.
A rentier economy. You own nothing, and pay/rent everything.
As time goes on - more and more of the economy is privatized.
The workers must make more and more money just to stay even.
Workers can’t compete in a global economy.
The class structure moves toward the 99%; supporting the parasite class, the 1%.
Industrial capitalism supports industry, building things.
The public monopoly infrastructures, tends to be free to the public;
so the workers aren’t as expensive, as they are in rentier economies.
The cost of living is low; while the wages continue to grow, as do their middle classes.
The middle class owns and lives a much better life style than the rentiers 99%'ers.
Granted, the less than 1%[Rentier economy] do well; but at what cost to society?
