Sure you could, if you have the courage of your convictions you could have a pursued a career in public service and worked for a non profit. Did you do that?
You don't know my convictions and are projecting them on to me.
This kind of abuse of power dynamic is directly conflicting Hayek's view on competition and on antitrust from 1946.
There's this modern ideology of reactionary fealty to every abuse of power like some masochist vigorously shaking pom poms at every market exploit and cheering "thank you, give me more!"
You know how utterly indefensible that position is and so instead of even attempting to do that you try to pry into my personal life and imagine you've found inconsistencies from which you mount a personal attack on my character.
Give me a break. A company buying up its competition to dismantle it is garbage and plenty of even Austrian economists agree.
Living a life a charity isn't required to see when an emperor wears no clothes.
Actually it is, you’re not willing to give up your comfortable lifestyle and trade your labor for the most compensation that you can yet you clutch your pearls wondering why those evil capitalist pigs aren’t willing to make the same sacrifices.
Anyone who makes a living by working for a private company and then saying the same private companies are evil, don’t have the courage of their convictions and are false clutching their pearls
My lifestyle is afforded to me because I trade my labor for money at a for profit company (BigTech). I am not clutching my pearls bemoaning the evils of capitalism while feeding from the very same troughs.
