Klobuchar, wants to break up google/facebook/apple and the two other tech giants.
Everyone online needs to wonder what will happen. The sad thing about monopolies is they are rarely broken up to betterment in the industry they are in. Trains/Oil/AT&T I don't see any of the monopolies they had make the industries. The train monopoly ended with the car taking its place. Oil ended with an international set of oil barons outside the legal parameters of the usa but not the financial connection to statian firms. AT&T bought all the baby bells back except Verizon but apple and google replaced the space the baby bells were supposed to have.
I end with a simple truth, those not a monopoly want to be a monopoly and that is the true problem. I can add, when the usa outran the soviet union, all the state owned industries in russia became owned by oligarchs.
