But, in order to make newer businesses more stable should we the government step-in, or should we just let the people decide between monopolies and Ma-and-Pa shops?

For example: I get all my M-rated games from Gamestop, should the government step-in to protect smaller video game stores and choose the video game chain I shop from? Or screw the smaller businesses, and let me buy my damn video games?!!
