I’m’a be honest, my business’ owner isn’t the issue for me, the middle management is. They’re blaming their lowers (us) for what are blatantly their mistakes from last week. I’ve recently considered going above their heads and “snitching” to the owner, who like actually clearly cares about his employees, idk how much he actually knows vs “just trusting [Highest Ranking Middle Manager] to run things.”
While there are issues with even small businesses, a liberal government can regulate them pretty effectively to the benefit of everyone, including owners. Its when businesses grow to the point where governments are beholden to them that things start to get really out of whack. I would be content to remain a primarily capitalist type economy if the system were designed to make business growth beyond certain levels disadvantageous. Anti-trust exists as a kind of band-aid for the fact that markets, left to their own devices, favor continual consolidation with nothing pushing the opposite direction. That band-aid is insufficient to constrain the expansion of corporate power.
