Uber has never once turned a profit, and is allowed to continue running their business. If you’re a small business owner running an ebay or ecom business, and you claim losses for 3 out of 5 years in a row, it’s likely that the IRS will audit you, and could deem you a hobby. Amazon is often cited as not generating a profit for many years, but is now profitable. For them, it was somehow okay to run a business making no profit! So like, how come small businesses can’t claim losses, but big corps can?
Because big corporations are better at paying off governments than smaller businesses.
Governments aren’t the ones paying big tech, they protect monopolies if that’s what you mean. Even then that’s dubious with what’s happening recently in europe and America
No, I’m saying large corporations pay off governments, which is absolutely true.
