Conservatives must use antitrust to rein in big tech monopolies

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

62% : As conservatives, we believe in free markets.
57% : But free markets require functioning markets.
56% : Big Tech's threat to the free market was on full display in 2021 when Amazon, Apple, and Google blamed Parler (a startup competitor to Twitter) for January 6th (when it was largely organized on Facebook) and all three removed the free-speech social media application from their platforms in a span of approximately 24 hours.
52% : These practices may not be as overt, but they nonetheless result in devastating consequences for small businesses that deserve fair treatment in the free market.
45% : When trillion-dollar Big Tech monopolists Google, Amazon, Apple, and Facebook use their market power to crush competition, shutter small businesses, and cancel conservatives, we no longer have a free market for online communication and commerce.
37% : The conservative solution is law enforcement, including updating and enforcing our century-old antitrust laws to target the anticompetitive tumors in the market so we don't need industry-wide regulations.
