Senator Elizabeth Warren wants to break up the big three: Amazon, Facebook and Google. The Massachusetts Democrat and presidential contender wants to create a regulatory regime that would treat tech companies with more than $25 billion in revenue differently from small tech companies.
She is, by nature, a wonk in that she can articulate complicated policy proposals better than most. And breaking up Big Tech is an idea that will require deep dives into the nature of platforms, the meaning of antitrust law, and all sorts of other things.
Passing a bill to break up Amazon, Facebook and Google in the Senate requires someone who has the ability to get into the weeds and write legislation that makes sense — and can then argue for that bill in ways her colleagues will understand. As a senator, Elizabeth Warren could do that.
How about break the healthcare cost down? Just a thought.
