Corporation monopolies are not bestowed by government. Libertarians love to claim this, but no, corporations corner the market without any help from the state, thank you very much. What they need from the state in order to monopolize the market, is laissez faire state policies. It works every time.
It might interest you to know that one Gabriel Kolko researched the problem and came to the same answer the Rothbard did.  It didn't make him happy since he was no friend of the free market.
Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard. -- H.L. Mencken

If one rejects laissez faire on account of man's fallibility and moral weakness, one must for the same reason also reject every kind of government action.   -- Ludwig von Mises
