I disagree with the idea stated above that TNC's "appeared in the first
place" because "nationalized companies seldom compete on the market with
TNCs." While TNCs have advantages over nationalized companies, the growth
of TNCs pre-dates the growth of nationalized companies. Also, the growth
of TNCs could be seen as a logical consequence of the international
concentration and centralization of capital rather than a response to
nationalization.
