| China is competing so well because it has a central bureaucracy that issues 5 year plans and issues money to get them done. Do you think America should do that too, or do you think America and China are different countries with different values? |

| Breaking up big tech would make US markets more competitive, not less. |

| Honestly not sure I find that prospect worse than the American status quo. At least the Chinese regime is a rational actor. |

| ▲ | jimmaswell an hour ago | parent [-] | | "America is just as bad as China" is not cute or clever; it's trite and objectively wrong. There really is no intellectually honest argument to the contrary. For starters we don't get arrested for saying "Kent State Massacre" - can't say as much for "Tiananmen Square" in China. No matter how atrocious our government may be at times, it doesn't hold a candle to them. |

| So you're saying the market is weaker with more competition? |

| Nope, just break up the one that has been consistently found to be abusing their market position. Microsoft has been embroiled in this since the 90s. |
