1)Maximization of profits leads companies to outsource labor and/or production in order to lower costs, quality comes with a high price. A price companies are not willing to pay when they could just go to India for pennies on the dollar. This outsourcing costs nations jobs, industry growth, and economic autonomy. While profiting other countries and their inhabitants.

2)An example of this is the mega conglomerate once known as philip morris (now Altria). Through many acquisitions of smaller tobacco and wine producers, they had the ability to corner their industries and the government. Major lobbying gave them the ability to legally monopolize the 2 industries they were a part of untill the 1990's. They owned everything from the fields, the seeds, the tools, the companies that shipped, packaged, and every aspect of tabacco or fine wine, not living any space for new industry or growth. Simply one company. - they own almost every major cigarette brand along with wine brand.
