Another problem is that Big Tech owns the relatively corrupt US government.

  Yes but only authoritarianism can make big business kneel. But that has it's own problems.

    > Yes but only authoritarianism can make big business kneel I'd say this only applies within a capitalist mode of production.

      If Big Tech is too powerful, and the US government is too corrupt, then combining them together in a planned economy is unlikely to improve matters. If, on the other hand, you're instead suggesting an alternative to the capitalist mode of production that doesn't involve state-run monopolies, then I think you need to draw the rest of the owl before we can judge whether your system will end up with authoritarianism or not.
