One more time if anyone says that capitalism breeds innovation we need to show them this ¡!
Oh almost like if in capitalism they didn't say that oligarchys are a problem. What we needed is to send these giants down.
That would prove difficult considering money rules, you can make people do you bidding, make them disappear and suffer little to no consequences.
So what we needed is a decent anti-monopoly, anti-oligarchy force.
Just like when the us gov dismantled AT&T into thousands of smaller different services and that created things like mobile routhers and etc.
Soo the companies like Google (for example), at this point are putting down more inovation than they are bringing into the table.
Problem is not capitalism, it's all that power centered in the same place. Almost like a dictatorship.
The problem isn't capitalism, it's just the system that allows power to be centralized through market forces and used to bribe regulatory bodies. Oh wait...
