1: our industry isn't dead at all?
2: if having an industry means all our companies are like amazon, a company I view as the closest equivalent to a sci-fi evil megacorp, then I'd rather not have an industry. The current attempts by eu are not to get money out of amazon, they attempts at increasing costs for amazon to continue being evil
- up2isomorphism 3y ago1. Your IT industry is essentially "dead" in a sense a similarly or better skilled software engineer earns probably even more in China than in Europe, particularly consider the living cost. On this forum I constantly see talented engineer in EU working for Amazon/Google etc, for fraction of a salary compared to US ones. 2. You still don't get the reason why Amazon-like global "evil megacorp" exists is exactly because your government regulate your local business so much that you don't have ones to naturally compete with these behemoth. Your government is part of the reason a large portion of your IT talent end up working in these "evil megacorps". 3. If you did not see I am rooting for EU small or mid business, you are just looking for some "nice" words which I couldn't care less. Yes, reality just hurts, but so what.
