I had the thought that the only way to really fight against large corporations and billionaires is to compete against them. Start your own business. Amazon relies on third-party sellers more than anything in their business. So start a business and sell your items there. Don’t have anything to sell? People are a creative bunch, make something. Find a local producer of something and make a partnership to sell on an independent web site.
You can’t. In most cases it is economically impossible. Because corporations get resources much cheaper than you. They pay taxes less than you. They can do what is straightforwardly forbidden to you.
So your options are limited: reselling shit, selling potatoes on the market, barbery or manufacturing useless trinkets. Programmers have very cheap tools so they have a chance to actually compete. Extremely small negligible chance.
So what you are telling me is that the options are so limited that we shouldn’t even try? That the only way to fight is to give up and buy crappy clothes from Walmart and be glad for it? Chain restaurants are the only option for dining options? Eat your Big Mac and remember your fries.
And those resources available to large corporations, there are resources available to small businesses too. Tax breaks are out there for different reasons. Negotiate for cheaper resources. Don’t give up.
It isn’t the case. And the price is very different those those resources that are still available for small businesses.
You can try, of course, it’s just you don’t have many options to choose from.
Have you tried? I’m trying.
