If Google becomes so good at the search game, thus end up with a monopoly, why should we care at all?

Would you complain if oils are cheap as a result of an oil monopoly?

In any case, google have thousand of engineers working on search results, trying out day in and day out outcompete bing.com and other search engine competitors.

That's a sign that merit decides the fate of corporations.

Google isn't a monopoly yet, so they still remain innovative; Just like Internet Explorer 6 was, until it wiped out remaining competitors and established a monopoly.

I am not exactly sure why my post warrants a downvote.
