I absolutely categorically distrust government power. The bar is very high for me to even consider government intervention being the right thing. The current government has a public dislike for the tech industry which has nothing to do with any inherent issues with monopoly.

While, I believe that Democrats who want to involve themselves in the private markets have good intentions - the road to hell is paved with good intentions. Neither side knows enough nor things deeply enough to understand that everything has tradeoffs and especially in tech. The former generation of tech giants fell as technology changed and through disruption - not government intervention
