What is...
level of monopolization and the intention to monopolize and to accumulate power, at what point does it become a problem where it actually causes an issue for markets?
It's sort of a general question, but how do we draw that line between you are competing in a good way, you're trying to buy up your competitors, you're trying to compete versus you are causing issues in the markets?
So you left the antitrust division after the end of Biden's term.
If you were back at the DOJ and you were regulating what's happening in AI, what would you go after?
What would you focus on?
How would you solve for these issues?
Well, I don't see why we can't just make it, call it a stock and say, put it on the stock market and say, you know, retail investors can invest in these private stocks or just create a market.
I don't see why we need the tokenization and the chain and the AI.
Why can't we just use the internet and call it a stock?
But anyway, I would like to get your reaction generally.
I just want to get your reactions to any other important antitrust lawsuits or areas of antitrust that are happening right now.
I mean, just some cases we could bring up, like the Google ad tech case or the Live Nation case or the Apple case.
I mean, so many other antitrust lawsuits going on.
Anything that you think is particularly important right now or deserves more attention?
Could you briefly just like explain the Ticketmaster situation just for anyone who might have forgotten?
I was just going to bring up the CapEx that we talked about at the beginning of the show.
It's like, yes, we're investing or the big tech companies are technically reinvesting into the economy by spending and creating the demand for themselves by investing in each other and spending all of that money on the data centers.
But I hadn't thought of the other downstream of that, which is, yes, that's going to create
more demand on the energy side.
