Trascrizione completa di Seton Motley - Should Big Tech Be Broken Up?

yeah. 00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:17.680 He he wrote a book called Search and Destroy about Google over a decade ago. 00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:20.080 And um we were emailing back forth. 00:02:20.240 --> 00:02:35.680 I said, because we had these couple of court cases last week where some parents uh won some cases against Meta and somebody else uh for uh their children, you know, selling adult stuff to children or or exposing adult stuff to children. 00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:36.159 Yeah. 00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:41.520 And I and it just I we were texting and I thought, why don't you and I sue? 00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:46.879 Because we obviously we're we're getting somewhere in court, we're getting nowhere in DC. 00:02:47.360 --> 00:02:50.240 Why don't we sue to break up the lobby monopoly? 00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:54.080 And that's obviously a totally novel concept. 00:02:54.159 --> 00:02:54.960 I have no idea. 00:02:55.120 --> 00:03:00.800 I'm not a lawyer, no idea if there's any legal, you know, justification for that thought. 00:03:01.120 --> 00:03:09.840 But you know, you the only place you're seeing any advancement, uh, you know, any any attempt to restrict uh big tech in any way is in the courts. 00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:23.759 And so, you know, they obviously have some sort of monopoly, you could argue, in DC, because nobody on the other side, if if they're represented, it's on an infinitesimal level when in comparison to the big tech company. 00:03:24.080 --> 00:03:45.280 Yeah, because if you think about it for a second, Seaton, if you say these people want to do it because it makes them money, and if other people said, let's go in and argue for some restrictions on these people because it's bad for our families, it's bad for children, and all that, there's not as much money attached to it, which means it's going to be tough to get the money to go and lobby, you know, counter what Meta is doing. 00:03:45.759 --> 00:03:46.000 Right. 00:03:46.240 --> 00:03:50.960 My joke for decades now has been unfortunately there's no lobby for the American people. 00:03:51.360 --> 00:03:52.879 Unfortunately, you're right. 00:03:54.240 --> 00:03:58.719 And and um this is one of those instances or one of those facets of that. 00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:01.759 But how do you break up the big lobbying monopoly? 00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:06.400 And I agree with you, it is a monopoly, but how do you do it in a country with a First Amendment? 00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:28.000 Whether we like it or not, if you walk into court and say, I want you to make a law that says Seaton Motley cannot go or his company can't go to Capitol Hill and go to various members of Congress, even if you assume you're not handing them campaign cash and things like that, you can't go there and tell them, you know, I'm I'm advocating on behalf of these folks for this or not. 00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:37.120 I think I think you know, the the there was the the the the um citizens united ruling which said corporations are people. 00:04:37.920 --> 00:04:42.959 And I'm I'm starting to really doubt that that was the proper ruling. 00:04:43.199 --> 00:05:01.600 If Mark Zuckerberg wants to do it, uh if Mark Zuckerberg wants to go and lobby, but to have corporations lobby as if they're people and have people's rights, these are individual human rights, these are not corporate rights that are are codified in the constitution. 00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:08.079 And how do you how do you go about Satan if if I Well the real look, the real solution look you and I have talked about this before. 00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:09.199 You're right. 00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:10.879 There are First Amendment questions. 00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:15.519 The real solution is the government needs to be 90% smaller than it is. 00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:16.240 I agree. 00:05:16.480 --> 00:05:25.360 Because totally because the gut the government's either a weapon or a you know, a sword or a shield for giant corporations, right? 00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:31.199 Yes and the small corporations can't hire the government to do either one for them. 00:05:31.519 --> 00:05:38.959 And and so the if the government, I always say we have a Mike Tyson government, we need a president of the chess club government. 00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:43.040 No one's gonna pay protection money to the president of the chess club. 00:05:43.199 --> 00:05:50.959 No, but we've got a Mike Tyson government, which is a huge monstrous weapon or a she, you know, or a defense mechanism. 00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:58.800 And of course, the biggest you know, it's it's a bidding war, and the biggest companies buy access to the weapon in their sectors. 00:05:58.959 --> 00:06:00.720 And that's what that's where we're at now. 00:06:00.959 --> 00:06:06.399 So the the real solution is to reduce the size of government, but we seem utterly incapable of doing that. 00:06:06.639 --> 00:06:13.360 Yeah, we do because I mean there are so many people on the right and the left who love the government to regulate things. 00:06:13.519 --> 00:06:16.240 And I would like to get the government out of those things altogether. 00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:23.120 Except the minute you say deregulation, you get everybody all wound up saying, no, no, we have to regulate everything in existence. 00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:31.120 And then once you do, the people who can afford to go back and argue, make the regulation this way because it'll benefit me, they they end up winning. 00:06:31.360 --> 00:06:38.319 Well, the the problem is like Section 230 is incredibly responsible for how big these big tech companies are. 00:06:38.480 --> 00:06:39.600 Then take it away. 00:06:39.920 --> 00:06:40.879 Well, that's what I'm saying. 00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:43.120 But what but here's the problem now. 00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:52.000 You know, I I said uh, you know, with an open border for half a century, it's gonna take a little more government to get to a lot less government, right? 00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:58.879 Because you're gonna have to have ice go around and clean out the messes that were created by by by this policy. 00:06:58.959 --> 00:07:00.720 These I couldn't agree with you more. 00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:10.319 And Cat Motley, I've got to run, but that's Cat Motley, the president of less government, and there is a First Amendment issue in there, and whether you like it or not, it's in the Constitution. 00:07:10.560 --> 00:07:20.879 Now, if you're fed up with the health care system, you know, the insurance companies, the pharmacy chains, that whole bureaucratic mess, you understand exactly why pharmacy matters. 00:07:21.040 --> 00:07:24.160 All family pharmacy, not your typical pharmacy. 00:07:24.240 --> 00:07:28.160 I've done business with them plenty be f because of my family. 00:07:28.319 --> 00:07:35.519 They're an independent pharmacy on a mission to fix what is broken and put it back where it belongs, between you and your doctor. 00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:39.680 They carry all the medications the big pharma tried to keep you away from. 00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:47.839 Things like ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, mebazidol, methylene blue, all of those and 400 other everyday prescriptions. 00:07:48.079 --> 00:07:50.480 The system works fine until it doesn't. 00:07:50.639 --> 00:07:58.639 All it takes is a delay or a shortage or one little unexpected situation, and suddenly getting something simple turns into a problem. 00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:01.279 All family pharmacy lets you plan ahead. 00:08:01.439 --> 00:08:02.879 I've done that for my family. 00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:12.399 Go online, fill out a short medical form, a licensed doctor reviews it, and if appropriate, writes a prescription, your medication ships straight to your front door. 00:08:12.560 --> 00:08:15.120 That's what medical freedom is really all about. 00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:16.800 No corporation in the middle. 00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:23.199 Go to AllFamily Pharmacy.comslash LARS and use the code LARS10 for 10% off. 00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:28.399 Stock up now before you need it at allfamily pharmacy.comslash LARS.
