93% of stocks are owned by just 10% of people… They own all the companies, and are diversified… They aren’t really competing with each other in any meaningful way
Then don’t shop at those companies? Go buy produce at your local farmers market etc etc. You get to choose what you spend money on. Or you can start your own business if you feel there is a market gap. You cant start your own government.
I should go to my local farmer’s market to sign up for Internet service, or to buy a cell phone? The big industries are so heavily dominated by massive colluding corporations that “don’t shop there” is not a tenable solution.
The reason the government is garbage is because most of them are working for the corporations. If we heavily regulated the corporations and made it so they couldn’t interfere with politics, the government would be better… They’d actually be working for the people and our interests, like they’re supposed to
The problem isn’t government, it’s corporate control of the government
Privatizing things will always cost more because then you need to account for profits as well. Publicly controlled=x cost, privately controlled=x costs+profit for the rich
Even the most corrupt government employee is only getting a pay check (no profits). They make their corruption money by colluding with corporations and rich people
