Yep. Now if all the corporations could pay their shares of taxes globally, it would help.
Apple, Siemens, Ford, Samsung, etcetcetc...

>> If GM or Toyota were to offer an all-electric car with a 300-mile range priced at $35k, it would most certainly steal some Tesla's Model 3 customers immediately, even if the offered car were technically not as well designed.

The problem is in fact that the big companies do not pay any taxes. That makes them much more competitive than small ones, and the small ones disappear. Tax the big ones, as it once was, it will be much more balanced.

Ask for 10k parts, you'll get reasonable prices.
