What makes you think that the little guy will have access to the same prices as a megacorp? Walmart is famously able to squeeze suppliers[1] because it has superior bargaining power. I doubt a mom and pop shop can do the same. Even if we somehow assume that the prices for supplies is the same, there's still the matter of cost of production. Large companies can benefit from pooled resources (eg. being able to hire engineering teams to optimize processes), or vertically integrate (eg. like how apple with their home grown processors).
>Your reaction is only validation of my argument: you are actually arguing for some sort of inevitability of consolidation of the economy as if it is absolutely unavoidable. This is literally the same argument as Marx, disguised.
My "reaction" consists of a one sentence question. I'm not sure how anyone would think that's a validation of anything, other than you trying to be smug. As for the reference to marx: I fail to see how it's relevant. Are arguments by him automatically wrong?
>EDIT: you are also being profoundly intellectually dishonest when you do not acknowledge the plethora of existing SMBs that already compete against larger corporations (usually at local levels).
Please check your own arguments before calling others "profoundly intellectually dishonest". You're basically arguing that because some business/sectors haven't consolidated yet, that consolidation isn't happening. By that logic global warming isn't happening either because there's still snow in some places and that some places are even cooling.
