This is why the Free Markets fail: consumers increasingly relinquish their collective power to regulate businesses to the state. So much so that people now believe the state is the only way to regulate.

What has thay gotten us? Ever increasing centralization of capital, megacorps lobbying/bribing government, corruption, patronage, market inefficiencies.

It is the role of consumers, not businesses, to value commercial activity in more than just money.

Fixing the Free Market starts with you: always vote with your wallet.

If you don't like Google, Apple, Amazon, Facebook, OpenAI, etc. stop being their loyal customer.
