“The invisible hand of the market gets tied behind its back when there is no semblance of actual competition.

Customers ultimately determine pricing, voting with their wallets every day on what they value and are willing to pay for. That is the marketplace at work.”

It has nothing to do with INVISIBLE HANDS “tied [by whom?] behind their back!
