The antitrust laws are blind to Apple been only American phone brands, blind to OpenAI's chatgpt, blind to Microsoft dominating the word processing space, blind to Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, Threads own by Meta?

Maybe you should update your records and see how many times Apple have been sued for Antitrust both in America and Europe. Same goes for Microsoft, they were actually forced to split part of their businesses. Even Facebook is currently in a legal battle and might be forced to divest in the future.......Knowledge is power, even if you're not here in America like me, at least use Google to research these things before criticizing!

How does Forbes determine these things? I am 100% certain that these people didn't disclose their earnings to anyone because rich people, probably because of safety concerns, don't like discussing their wealth.

Given what the media has made us believe, there are people who are by far richer than these folks who made the list but they are silent kingmakers who don't want the world to know them. We have been told they are the biggest problems in our world

there is a certain level of wealth that is difficult to hide. You must put the wealth in assets such as shares or capital investments the value of which can be assessed by third parties or if you decide to put it in banks, the banks are obligated to report certain amounts to appropriate authorities if ur account exceeds it, or where are u going to hide a billion dollars?

[quote author=malali post=136544210][/quote]those African power brokers you mentioned are corrupt leaders who amassed wealth illegally. They are only able to hide their wealth because they often use third parties as fronts to launder their I'll gotten wealth to make it difficult to trace to them.

DeepSight:
There is a truism here. The Forbes list only accounts for those whose money can be openly and legitimately accounted for, and if they so wish.
In truth, everywhere in the world, political leaders alone often stash away FAR FAR FAR FAR greater amounts than one can find on any Forbes List.

I will never forget what was found in accounts related to Hosni Mubarak of Egypt. That alone put a lie to any "richest man" list you can find published anywhere.

And he was nothing compared to a Putin for instance - who is probably the richest man in the world.

in reality the money is never truly theirs, so it would be erroneous to evaluate them on that basis.

Antitrust forcing split businesses and expanding to gain more monopoly instead fighting there so-called imaginary monopoly? What joke!

How does Apple have a monopoly on phones? How does Microsoft have a monopoly on operating systems? Each company has at least one big competitor in the market so your monopoly claim is shitty at best
