Cyberpunk started to take shape long time ago.

Trump talked about this in his Gettysburg speech saying he wouldn't allow it.

As if there weren't enough ISP monopoly areas floating around as is. Only thing worse would be AT&T and Comcast merging.

Corporations will own whole cities in the future.

they tried that first but FCC blocked it.

Government and companies will consolidate into one big company/government in the future. It is really scary.

Doesn't Time Warner own Comcast, so if Time Warner merges, wouldn't that mean that they'd of finally bunched all of the major ISP's under one umbrella corp?

...

No, Time Warner does not own Comcast.

They tried to merge and were stopped.

...

wait nevermind, I need coffee apparently

Where did they get the 80 billion dollars?

American companies have giant cash hordes overseas. Apple has something like $300 billion now, even with its dividend. However, outside financing isn't out of the question. They'll have to file with the SEC about it one way or another eventually.

Doesn't trump want the money to be brought back?

Perhaps he could smash up $300 billion worth of Apple property if they don't.

"Welcome to Costco. I love you!"

Trump has said this will not happen with him.

This is what it looks like to watch one world government form. Merger after merger. Soon the entire world will be one media mega-conglomerate and all other industries will be subsidiaries.

All your phones, magazines, and movies are belong to us.

And video games, and music, and literature, and toys, and industrial goods, and food, and medicine, and education, and finance..

All you brain are belong to us. We androids now.

...

...

I AM SANTA CLAUS

Anyone have that diagram of how a huge number of companies are just subsidiaries of 3 megacorps?

seriously ,
google.com/finance?q=NYSE:T&fstype=ii&ei=feQMWImvJ4PEebK8ibgJ

they make 22 billion doillars profit every 3 months .

Its all owned by jews, who cares.

...

I think this one is actually what I had been thinking of.
I now see it's out of date though; for example Kraft has since become Kraft-Heinz.

These were the only options I had, ATT being the worse of the two, now it's just one option. Fuck. We need economic regulations.

TRUST BUSTER TWO: ELECTRIC JEW BOOGALOO

Busting these fags when?

This already happened before, AT&T was shattered into several different companies. Now they all came back together and are raping congress in retaliation.

Worse, it has become Mondelez.

At this rate our near future will be like in Biomega. Corporations owning thousands of nuclear weapons, military bases and massive armies of their own.

Disgusting.

Corporate PMC wars when?

We need him more than every these days.

This may actually be good in the end, the reason many of these corporations merge is to drive up stock price to remain profitable. This may mean that all these merged companies will eventually buckle under their own weight.

We can only pray that Trump is a resurrection of this man's spirit

...

I don't see it going through at least as the companies currently stand. They'll likely be forced to divest a good amount of their collective assets.

Shitlibs support anti-trust laws like this but are complaining about this because Trump proposed it "for the wrong reasons." So now they're against it.

Yeah, say goodbye to cheap and/or fast internet in a lot of areas.

They own our politicians, so this is true in practice already.

Am I the only one who realizes we don't have a problem with monopolies, but with collusion and fraudelent government and faulty, crony capitalism?

Monopolies are lumbering behemoths that ossify as time goes by. If there weren't all sorts of shitty laws and red tape, the giant corps would get raped by agile competitors. It's always been like this - any time a company grows too large, the rot sets in. What keeps their corpses ticking (and sucking our lifeblood) is government-granted monopoly via not only overt laws but covert red tape that stops competitors from even setting up shop.

Just look at how Comcast fucks over rival ISP companies. They lord over their fiefdoms like Muslims in Sharia zones in the UK, and the US government allows them to treat customers like shit simply because there's no alternative to the service they offer. Competitors can't muscle in on territory and offer their services because lobbying fucks outright buy politicians.

This is a problem literally for the free market, not more government oversight.


I'm a NatSoc. And I honestly believe the state SHOULD take care of its people and protect them from parasites, both foreign and domestic, but why not simplify everything and just get rid of the laws and red tape that make monopolies possible in the first place?

If megacorps were to lose their enshrined place atop the pedestal, they'd fall apart easily. But that would mean outlawing lobbying, backroom deals, and actually writing laws that would hold people responsible in the case of massive fuckups and abuses of power, instead of treating corporations like blameless entities.

The cure for this rot is to cut through the red tape, not add more of it.

Because what we have now is state-subsidized socialism for the corporations, and hyper-predatory capitalism (with diversity hires and H1B visas) for the lumpenproletariat. This goes far beyond antitrust laws and monopolies - it's societal rot that needs to be excised at its core… and its funeral pyre wreathed with the corpses of globalist puppetmasters and their cronies in govenrment.

Decent analysis but until everything's entirely reworked such mergers like this must be stopped.

Time Warner at one point owned Time Warner Cable but they decided to spin it off into a new company some years ago. TWC just merged with Charter.


They wouldn't be so big in the first place if it wasn't for those regulations holding them up and driving away their competitors.

tbh it's been like since the 1800s when the Rothschilds bought England

The solution to the problem is making sure to entirely separate Government and Corporate power so that they can't collude.

But more importantly is the existence of an incorruptible independent watchdog that can pro-actively counter kike plans.

If you go to liberal sites like reddit or slashdot, you can see them jerk off all day over the destruction of corps like Comcast and AT&T. I'd love to see what they think of this.


That picture lacks P&G.

This. Why the fuck can't people see this? How hard is it to grasp that all these megacorps are being propped up artificially? Without massive corruption in government, and the ungodly amount of subsidies pumped into the (((companies'))) pockets, they'd collapse under their own weight.

We're basically feeding these monolithic carcasses with our tax dollars, while at the same time paying for the zookeper who beats up any vulture that tries to swoop in and peck off a piece.


We did it for Church and State. Well, mostly. It baffles me how people can be so antagonistic towards organized religion, but suck the corporate cock with just as much fervor.

I doubt this is possible. Humans are corrupt and corruptible. And with absolute power… etc. etc.

Personally, I think the best way would be to enshrine capital punishment for all forms of corruption. The fucks at the top would stop raping the plebs and the economy if they knew they'd get shoa'd for it.

...

You're thinking in traditional forms of human organization while i'm thinking in terms of exactly what Holla Forums is.
To easy and simple, the corrupt would just abuse those laws to frame and kill their competition.

Yeah but I mean literally owning such weaponry and armies. In the cyberpunk story of Biomega, globalist international corporations have so much military power that one of them declares themselves the world government and starts enforcing their own laws on all the people around the world. Also one of the top personnel mentioned in that corporation had a Jewish name.

It will get THAT bad soon.

They'd tell you it would never work.

Time Warner just merged with Charter Communications. That merger raised my internet bill fro $43 to $55 per month. I cant imagine how much more it will go up if this happens.

Isn't Eisner out, or did he come back a few years ago?
…ah, no, yeah he's still gone.


BELLYFLOP BY THE TAFT TORNADO

we should do like Cobra Commander and genesplice them two with Jackson and mebbe Kristo Kaarmann for the modern touch to make our own Holla Forumspentor

Great. So now (((Time Warner))) can add ATT customers to their internet lines, that are already so overused you cannot use the net between 8pm and midnight anymore.
TW added a fuck of a lot more customers with big promises, but never expanded their capacity. My internet speed is 1/5th what it was even 2 years ago. Biggest kikes on earth, this will only make it worse.
