Let’s nationalize Amazon and Google: Publicly funded technology built Big Tech

They're huge and ruthless and define our lives. They're close to monopolies. Let's make them public utilities

EXTRACT

Broadband as a public utility? If not for corporate corruption of our political process, that would seem like an obvious solution. Instead, our nation’s wireless access is the slowest and costliest in the world.

ROBERT STEELE: Nationalize these two retarded early versions? Absolutely NOT. Leapfrog them instead with a national Open Source Agency that fosters the adopting of all 55+ opens that I outline at TINY URL /OSE-LIST and elaborate on at TINY URL /OSE-2014. Google, for all its accomplishments, SUCKS — it indexes less than one percent of the web, and very dishonestly so and it does not provide data sharing and sense-making tools; Amazon is a vendor of packages, not knowledge, and predatory to boot. Let them both die. We can do better.
