    I think we may be entering a new era politically. Thank goodness. Maybe we’ll see some momentum in antitrust again, it’s been 120 years since we last got the ball rolling, and what we got was well worth fighting for in my opinion. The world can always be a little bit better, and antitrust laws help us make it better.

      Monopolies are still a big problem. Amazon uses a hostage situation to take a % of everyone. You want to know the best part about corporate capitalism? They will always adapt because they can just make us pay for everything they lose. Any competition to amazon needs an entire database, website and security. How many starters can swim? You need a huge investment to hope you dont sink in the first 2 quarters. I can go on and on but until they make these companies pay for their competition its disencouraging to even try.
