I'm not even sure PSA is a monopolist. What are the barriers to entry, a factor that must be considered in any analysis of whether a firm can exercise monopoly power? We aren't talking manufacturing automobiles or airplanes, we're talking a building, some employees, some cheap plastic slabs and a sealing machine. If someone wants to compete in this space, it wouldn't take a prohibitive amount of capital. Baker and Rocchi did it with GAI, they just didn't do it right.
