Is this summarily, or per worker, or per unit of money spent?

Please note that, unlike corporations, governments usually can print money ("quantitative easing" anyone?) and normally finance their expenses by taxing everyone, that is, their services can't be opted out of.

The state has provided me far more value than Google, Facebook, Amazon, and Uber have.

If they want to regulate them, regulate them. If they want to dissolve them, dissolve them. I at least get a vote with the state; I get no such say with large tech corporations. If you would like to opt out of the state, you likely have the skills to emigrate to another country.
