I expected exactly this - that people that benefit from those giant companies fail to see the downsides.

Why not, if it works? Are you not just confirming that the US works for a few lucky ones whereas Europe works for most?
- ChuckNorris89 5y ago> those giant companies fail to see the downsides So in your book big companies have only downsides? What about VW, Mercedes, BMW, SAP, Bayer, Siemens, etc? Why are big US companies evil for you and not the rest?

- CRConrad 5y agoWhat an egregiously edited quote. Cutting it down that much totally changed the meaning, leaving you a strawman that said nothing like what the original poster said. Shame on you.
- oytis 5y ago> Why not, if it works? Because it might be irrelevant? Yes, US and EU have historically different social policies, but it might not necessarily be the reason for difference in economic performance. For me it's not "high tech companies vs working class", rather "high tech companies vs inefficient and intrusive government and old money". The obvious difference between FAANG on one side and BMW Daimler, etc. on the other side is the time when these companies have been founded.
