Subject: as well as fair labor and business markets Free markets have the potential to provide great improvements in living standards, channeling resources to productive uses and providing consumers with quality and choices. Sometimes, though, abuses of market power by firms can undermine many of these potential benefits. As this issue brief demonstrates, competition between firms can generate many benefits to consumers, workers, and small businesses. Yet, as this brief also discusses, some indicators suggest there is more market concentration, higher profits for a few firms, and declining entry, all of which could result from less competition. Competition policies and robust reaction to market power abuses can be an important way in which the government makes sure the market provides the best outcomes for society with respect to choice, innovation, and price as well as fair labor and business markets.Заключительный (дальше - список литературы) абзац доклада: Council of Economic Advisers, “Benefits of Competition and Indicators of Market Power,” Issue Brief (May 2016), https://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/page/files/20160502_competition_issue_brief_updated_cea.pdf Непонятно, что в данном случае означают business markets .
