History has also never seen nor experienced anything like the Amazons and Googles and Facebooks of present day. They make the Rockefellers and JP Morgans of yester-century red with envy. As much as I like to say that today is the greatest day in the history of human civilization, I'm quite reticent and fearful for the future. It's inevitable that we will live with either Big Government or Big Corps, but both of them in tandem will not be good for civilization.
