    And when private businesses get so big and powerful they become monopolies like big Tech has become we have a remedy in this country called breaking up the monopolies and leveling the playing field.

    And look at the history of monopolies that have been broken up in this country. Facebook in no way qualifies by the standards set for busting up a monopoly. There are competitors but it seems conservatives make zero effort to migrate to them.

    I use MeWe so I can do private gun trades. Facebook banned being able to do it. Gun owners didn’t pout and ask that the feds come in to make it accepted on Facebook. They just moved to a social media platform that allowed it. 

  • Help us liberate the aliens comrade! 

    Then we'll DEMAND Facebook hide the bad people!

    How about Amazon? I like Amazon Prime. I  get great prices and get my product in 1 or two days many times with free shipping. But if Amazon is killing off brick and mortar stores and hurting the country that concerns me:

  • So we should punish success now because Amazon does the best in their industry? You can still shop at JC Penney’s. Consumers choose the better service which happens to be Amazon.

  • By that logic, we should have stopped car production because it was bad for the horse shoe industry.

    For how long will you be able to shop at JC Penney's before Amazon does away with them too? Ours already closed. Consumers choose Amazon because it is best for them, that is why I use Amazon alot these days. But what is best for the country has to be considered too.

  • bestbuy has figured out how to compete with amazon and newegg. ☕

    Amazon isn’t doing away with anyone. JC Penney’s isn’t offering services or marketing well enough to keep customers loyal. So should Amazon and consumers be punished because JC Penney’s hasn’t found a way to innovate and keep customers? What is your suggestion for saving every business that doesn’t stay competitive?

  • Ironic their businesses started out as a mail-order company is being put out of business by a mail-order company but... There will always be some sort of Attraction for brick and mortar just because if the selection is great enough and they price match I think people will basically prefer dealing with a human being even if they have to eat some tax. Back in the old days when there was Circuit City at Best Buy going head-to-head circuit City's employees were on commission and really had to know the product while Best Buy staff was basically minimum wage or a couple bucks over. Recently Best Buy has insisted their people learn the product line which makes it much more worthwhile to shop there that before.

    Otoh I purchase most of my musical gear at Sweetwater online. My guy knows the equipment and FedEx usually has it here the next day. Problem with the smaller Brick and Mortar Music Stores is that they don't carry the major brands. Guitar Center does what it seems like they turned over the staff every few months.
