"When billionaires don't pay their taxes, they get to buy sports franchises. When poor people don't pay their taxes, billionaires get to steal their houses after paying the local government an insultingly small amount of money."

    When we blame ā€œlazinessā€ for tech monopolies, we send the message that our friends have to choose between lifeā€™s joys and comforts, and a fair economic system that doesnā€™t corrupt our politics, screw over workers, and destroy small, local businesses. This isnā€™t true. Itā€™s a lie that monopolists tell to justify their abuse. When we repeat it, we do monopolistsā€™ work for themā€Šā€”ā€Šand we chase away the people we need to recruit for the meaningful struggles to build worker power and political power.
