| > This must be why we have no minimum wage laws, worker protections, nor does the FTC ever block any mergers. Uh huh. The public that directs the government have jobs and have to live in society, so they are quite concerned about these things. The public might also be concerned about the future of Figma, but other comments suggest that they won't be. And I tend to agree as it is a fairly niche product. If something like Microsoft/Windows, which almost everyone uses, was being sold to Adobe it might draw more questions from the public. > Assuming 88% of that 58% are in actually in agreement. For sure. They often don't agree. Just as we are only speculating that Figma is destined to disappear here. The public that holds control might decide it's the greatest thing since slice bread and make it Adobe's flagship product. The future is uncertain. I'm surprised you didn't already know that. > You made the argument that the shareholders of one public company are somehow functionally equivalent to the public at large You must be replying to the wrong person. Careful which button you press. > Your position is basically: we already live in an anarchy capitalist society with extra cruft. Quite the opposite. The public very much coordinates centrally. We just got finished talking about 51% being significant because of that centralization... Replying to the wrong thread confirmed. I hope you find your way back to where you wanted to be. |
