Take a look at this: http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2011-11/10/content_14068213.htm Apparently the Chinese State is investigating two large State-owned telecommunication enterprises over allegations that they’re engaging in ‘monopoly pricing’. Wha..? Considering the general statist argument that nationalisation is a way to prevent monopolies, the premise of that article is all kinds of funny (as is the idea of the State investigating itself).
