      You’d think we would have caught on to the silicon valley method by now

      1. subsidize a new product or service 5000% using startup capital until you eliminate whatever infrastructure was previously meeting the need
      2. stop subsidizing, raise prices, and whenever a competitor looks like they might get a foothold buy them out or temporarily subsidize prices until they can’t compete

      This way we can ensure only businesses with an outrageous amount of financial leverage get any chance!
