The statement was with respect to "one man" owning everything on the earth, and whether there is a law that would stop this. And there is such a law.

Antitrust laws don't prevent capitalism or the violence it causes. I was just responding to your point about there being some sort of natural or legal conclusion to capitalism where one guy owns everything. That conclusion is easily avoidable and was considered over 100 years ago when they passed the first antitrust laws to prevent the railroads from owning everything etc. Your post didn't seem to consider antitrust laws.

What prevents capitalism from accomplishing this in law?

Antitrust laws accomplish this in law

When the site goes down I noticed some folks go to other websites or even outside or something.
