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

2019-08-28 22:35:22 UTC  

they move the company out of the market legally

2019-08-28 22:35:32 UTC  

by offering a better product which that other company cannot offer

2019-08-28 22:35:40 UTC  

Because they have such a large market share

2019-08-28 22:35:42 UTC  

yes

2019-08-28 22:35:45 UTC  

And are so large

2019-08-28 22:35:46 UTC  

and that's fine

2019-08-28 22:35:48 UTC  

that they can't compete

2019-08-28 22:35:49 UTC  

No

2019-08-28 22:35:51 UTC  

if they offer a better product

2019-08-28 22:35:52 UTC  

That's not fine

2019-08-28 22:35:53 UTC  

at a better price

2019-08-28 22:36:03 UTC  

then the 'competition' should die

2019-08-28 22:36:04 UTC  

That's anti-consumer

2019-08-28 22:36:10 UTC  

There's no competition to that
