To name a few

2019-08-28 22:30:23 UTC  

if monopolies rise then encourage competition

2019-08-28 22:30:37 UTC  

not that simple

2019-08-28 22:30:37 UTC  

lmao

2019-08-28 22:30:59 UTC  

it is much easier than safely and intelligently breaking up companies

2019-08-28 22:31:19 UTC  

how do you encourage competition in a monopoly?

2019-08-28 22:31:22 UTC  

its just a ploy to outrage voters against corporatism.

2019-08-28 22:31:22 UTC  

educate us

2019-08-28 22:31:47 UTC  

Education, funding, tax rebates

2019-08-28 22:32:07 UTC  

all things the monopoly can beat

2019-08-28 22:32:08 UTC  

easily

2019-08-28 22:32:18 UTC  

Go directly to jail, do not pass go, do not collect $200

2019-08-28 22:32:20 UTC  

lol

2019-08-28 22:32:22 UTC  

they'll hire the best workers through better pay

2019-08-28 22:32:28 UTC  

funding to what scale?

2019-08-28 22:32:29 UTC  

and so be it

2019-08-28 22:32:32 UTC  

Out spend them?

2019-08-28 22:32:34 UTC  

if they want to do that

2019-08-28 22:32:37 UTC  

then they can do that

2019-08-28 22:32:49 UTC  

tax rebates aint going to do jack

2019-08-28 22:32:58 UTC  

When Google doesn't even show up your product

2019-08-28 22:33:05 UTC  

but if they can't compete in the consumer market, which is to say provide a product consumers will buy at a price they accept, the company will fail.

2019-08-28 22:33:11 UTC  

This is what your street looks like when there’s no monopoly on hanging cables

monopolies are only bad if it is impossible to compete

2019-08-28 22:33:18 UTC  

Just ask Intel

2019-08-28 22:33:25 UTC  

Yes, because the monopolies can beat them.

2019-08-28 22:33:30 UTC  

BECAUSE they're a monopoly

2019-08-28 22:33:36 UTC  

This is basic fucking economics

2019-08-28 22:33:37 UTC  

You spend your money destroying the competition, rather than innovating

2019-08-28 22:33:48 UTC  

Though I'm not sure why I'd expect people on here to understand that

2019-08-28 22:33:51 UTC  

active manipulation, backdoor deals, anticompetitive deals are bad - and already illegal

2019-08-28 22:34:10 UTC  

giant companies have fallen many times

2019-08-28 22:34:17 UTC  

monopolies are anticompetitive due to scale

2019-08-28 22:34:22 UTC  

Monopoly with competition doesn't sound what weez referred to at all?

2019-08-28 22:34:23 UTC  

and market influence they have

2019-08-28 22:34:27 UTC  

you can't stop that

2019-08-28 22:34:35 UTC  

meanwhile your competition comes up to speed ... you spend your money on the soulless "journalists" who will say and do anything for that sweet sweet greenback

2019-08-28 22:34:36 UTC  

that's fine

2019-08-28 22:34:43 UTC  

just be a fucking intelligent person, like everyone else in the west and break them up

2019-08-28 22:35:10 UTC  

as long as they are not colluding to move a company out of the market, which is illegal, a monopoly or mega corp should be allowed to operate

2019-08-28 22:35:14 UTC  

lol
