That’s exactly what Amazon did several years back. At the time online sales were tax free in the U.S., because the Federal Government could control cross state transactions, however if the product was sold in the same state as the consumer, sales tax was added. Amazon encouraged sales tax to be added to all sales as they increased their warehouse to most states to provide faster delivery services. Because they were more and more likely to be required to charge sales tax as they brought a warehouse closer to the consumer (same state) they encouraged the Federal government to lift the sales tax ban to force all their competitors to charge sales tax as well.
It’s reminiscent of The Fountainhead, where structures reward conformity and suppress genuine progress. Decoupling policy from corporate influence is important to ensure regulations serve society, not just those in power.
Yes to new channel! Excellent video, nothing is B&W when it comes to human doings, no such thing as “free market”, plenty of greedy mediocre minds spending their energy on gaming whatever system for more power. Seems crazy to ignore this in favor of simplistic this or that thinking

Very appropriate in today’s world. No longer any consequences for these conflicts of interest
Def interested in the second channel!
Actually the airlines would be better regulated by free market insurance companies than by any government entity.
Even pharma companies can fix the trials outcome 😂😂😂😂😂
Good idea to have a second channel - diversification can be beneficial in some areas of life.
