Unfortunately, you have to. It’s in the Constitution, see the Takings Clause.
During the Revolutionary War, the Continental army caused a lot of ill will by simply seizing supplies from civilians without compensation. The army was desperate. They didn’t have money. So sometimes they just took what they needed.
In response to this, James Madison made sure to write into the Constitution that the federal government cannot take any property without paying its owner the fair market value of the property. The government can take your house in eminent domain if it needs to build a highway, but it has to pay you the value of your house in exchange.
I suppose the federal government could start up its own federal AI initiative, using government-owned data centers. But there’s no way for it to nationalize the AI companies without purchasing them at fair market value. And while there are plenty of things this administration is willing to ignore the constitution for, this isn’t one of them.
The tech companies are basically weapons companies. Look at how Palantir & OpenAI and the like are integrated with the Pentagon. Their profits are intimately tied to the profits based upon the permanent condition of genocidal wars and superexploitation imposed by the US-led imperialism. Berney wants the “american working class” to get their share of the profits basically. Seems tantamount to a national socialism.
I want the tech monopolies and the US-empire to cease to exist. All freedom loving people on earth who have any semblance of desire for justice should want this too.
I can see why his plan is natsoc. Thanks for explaining.
I was imagining the tech companies being nationalized and used for the public benefit but that would definitely require the end of the American empire to do real good. Getting ahead of myself I guess. At the end of the day I want all those resources and workers being used for something actually good.
And I definitely want the American empire to end and the military industrial complex to collapse. 🛠️✊
All for nationalizing the tech companies but don’t pay the billionaires to do it.

I have my concerns about Bernie being pro Isreal too. 😞
I definitely want to stop the genocide at any cost. In case that wasn’t clear.
Am I missing something comrade? Or just a misunderstanding?
Good! You still have a heart! 💫

Does this make sense?
Totally makes sense comrade.

I don’t think he’s planning to
