Intuit is lobbying in defense of their entire industry. Almost every company of their size would do the same thing in their situation. The people who deserve the blame here are the people who are susceptible to those lobbying efforts.
Blame Congress.
- nielsbot 5y agoI blame the rules that let this happen. In general, people are gonna people.
- slg 5y agoNot coincidentally the people who make the rules are the people who I said to blame.
- isleyaardvark 5y agoThis is entirely too cynical and pessimistic. In particular others have pointed out that other countries do not do this, and it’s not like they aren’t people.
- nielsbot 5y agoI disagree--those other countries operate under different rules. Power does corrupt.
- croon 5y agoDifferent rules that those people set up. Power can't be created or destroyed, it can only converted from one form to another. I'd much rather power reside with people and what they can vote for, rather than let it all fall to mega-corps.
- tekknik 5y agoWhy don’t we blame the intuit employees while we’re at it? If they had no employees then they wouldn’t be in business? So does this mean it’s actually the citizens fault?
