This comment isn’t valuable and doesn’t add anything. I flagged it.

Sorry, who claims this? Sounds like you’re confused

> It's a natural consequence of capitalism. It's in every industry.

The link you posted doesn’t support this claim.

Americans generally hold SPY which makes them Amazon shareholders.

They can by choosing to not sell on Amazon.

It’s funny to me that people look at the wild runaway success of the American experiment and conclude that it needs more cronyism like every other country.

Please feel free to implement whatever unfavorable policies you like in your own nations. You are welcome to further drive down your GDP per capita if you’d like. That’s not what the US is though.

This is not even remotely a response to the question asked by the comment you’re replying to.

In what way is it monopolistic? Amazon has many competitors

None of this is a response to what I said.

Why would we help whichever side is larger?

The current status quo is a result of free association. If people prefer to have credit card debt or use rewards programs poorly then I have no issue with continuing in this manner.

I like rewards programs and disagree that it would be a win. Your suggestion puts me in an objectively worse position.

Don’t worry, you won’t be getting any of that money. It’ll be going in entirety to the utility monster (bottom quintile)

So if we stopped sending money to Israel you’d stop talking about Israel and Gaza forever?

This idea that people only care about Israel because we support them with our tax dollars is such a joke
