You guys forget that while amazon has made huge advancements in how we receive products, when they got too big they started putting a stranglehold on smaller online business and were/are to bleed themselves until these companies went out of business. One prime (pun intended) is daipers.com. Amazon tried to force daipers.com to use their warehouses for distributing product for a price but daipers.com refused. In response amazon undercut daipers.com so much that amazon bled hundreds of millions of dollars to just to slowly put daipers.com out of business.
While I'm all for competition as a consumer, these practices are pretty shitty. It's like what walmart was/is doing with small mom and pop businesses but in the digital age and much more widespread. One could argue digital darwinism but it comes to a point where an entity becomes too powerful and starts to consume all around it.
And when these entities become so massive that they start to control government, at which point do we start to care? Lets say they start taking care of the needs of the majority, why would we need a government at all? Would you want them merged into government? We as individuals have to consider which side of the spectrum we want to be in. More government control, more corporate control? Which master would you rather serve?
