If voting with your money is a valid way for people to collectively decide right and wrong, does that mean people with more money get more votes?
Does that mean the people with the most money get the most votes?
If that's all true, does that mean if someone has way more money than everyone else, they get to decide what's right and wrong?
That's indeed the mechanism that is used to get to the situation we are in.
Money, based on quantity, is worthless to us filthy commoners. But it's fundamentally a representation of your time and attention; the only currency that matters.
Laws will not help to solve anything. Not only is it supposed to represent the same collective you just described as making bad decisions, they are administered by government, which in turn is a mechanism for business to advance.
Even chickenfeed laws to "better privacy" when corporation like Google gets out of hand won't help in the long term.
The ONLY solution is proper education. Not in government schools (which produces mindless consumers), but by spreading this information yourself.
And nobody said it's going to be easy when you're up against the limitless money press big business has access to.
