We should also make the farms public too and the banking and even manufacturing!

Not necessarily because utilities don't inherently lend themselves to opening themselves to competition because they require extensive physical infrastructure whereas farms, banks, and manufacturing don't need immediate local access. They can buy property in fuckthatistan and still provide you with service.

They shouldn't be bought by a public entity, but the government should be better at dismantling monopolies.

The government could make it a natural monopoly, meaning that it's going to be the only firm but their costs of production are lower and they give cheaper service for the consumers. However, it must truly be a monopoly. It's Economics 101
