Amazon's role in the oligopoly is running much of cloud computing. It comes down to this:

- Google and Facebook capture all the value in online ads

- Amazon, Google and Microsoft control the cloud

- Apple and Google have a duopoly mobile OS

- Apple and Microsoft dominate desktop OSs (sorry linux bro)

- Facebook essentially controls online political advertising, and its founder is gearing up for a run at office

Even if the pyramids were made by happy, paid, unionized workers with a good health/mummification plan (which seems a stretch), they were a terrible misuse of resources.
