And if Amazon is broken up, whoever thinks the US will still win the global E-commerce market against Alibaba is also quite high.
The rules are changing. We need to think about the geopolitics here as well. We need US companies to win global markets in an era of increased competition.
- zip1234 8y agoAlibaba is a great example of why Amazon is NOT a monopoly.
- cdiddy2 8y agoYa, globalization has changed my opinion on how we should handle these situations. How are US companies supposed to compete against other companies that are just as large if we restrict their size within the US? That just gives us a disadvantage against international competitors.
- cooooooffffeeee 8y ago>We need US companies to win global markets why
- buzzerbetrayed 8y agoBecause otherwise the companies that do win the global markets do the same thing to US companies that you are saying Amazon does to small companies. How is it a good thing for the US to limit their own companies, when foreign companies don't have the same limitations? Giant companies will still exist, they will just cease to be US based companies.
- cooooooffffeeee 8y agoFair take. The US could penalize/limit/tariff those outside megacorps like China does though, right? I'm not sure trade should be completely free when an outside competitor can skirt your local laws.
