When a country main form of getting rich is thru rent (land, platforms, or any other). That country becomes economically sick. The middle ages were dominated by land Lords. War to increase land ownership, no social mobility, and economic stagnation were the norm.
Platform rents are really bad. And for land rents, it would make more sense to be a public good that finances the government that privately owned and creating a owner class that gets all the profits from society production.
> Literally, elite rent-seekers took all the money and now there is no more to take!
There is more money to take, that is why they push for conservative governments that reduce taxes for the rich and eliminate laws that protect the working-class.
Creating new things should be incentivized over platforms that take a cut on the work of others.
