Are Google, Amazon and others getting too big?
I agree they should be regulated. The world is a better place with lots of smaller companies.These big companies turn regular people into corporate livestock to serve the wealthy.If you were to analyze Facebook as if it were a country, the wealth gap among employees would be atrocious - The top 1% would own maybe 99% of the wealth of the country and everyone else would earn a minuscule fraction of the total value that they produced.If we let monopolies take over, then the economy of the world will start to mirror the economies within these large corporations.What's worse is that the social aspects will also be mirrored. We will gradually lose freedom of speech, in the same way that employees of large corporations don't have the freedom to say what they really think to their bosses.Many who have worked for a big corporation will know how suppressing the environment can be. I'm really glad that I live in a time when there are still alternatives.
