- jwalton 6y agoOnly if you think the horrific damage done to American democracy by Facebook and friends was more than offset by a little extra tax revenue.
- xiphias2 6y agoI think the damage to democracy is done by low interest rates (QE). US was lucky to not be affected by wars and hate for a long time, but they existed before tech companies, like Facebook, especially when the financial system was centralized and corrupt.
