I would have to disagree with the goal of any business is to be a monopoly.<p>There are lots of examples of successful business out there who did not monopoly the market.<p>I&#x27;d also have to disagree that startups sell mostly crap they don&#x27;t need or want. Uber &amp; AirBnB definitely provides something valuable that most humans would appreciate of.<p>If you&#x27;re talking about products such as Snapchat or Instagram, that&#x27;s a different genre of product. It&#x27;s a vitamin type of product not a pain killer.
