Yael walks us through his piece in USA Today about the FTC going after Amazon, how this is just a new version of a long-running debate between government and the biggest retailers/companies around, the difference between good regulation and bad policy, how "the curse of bigness" isn't the same as antitrust or a monopoly, and how legitimate issues of Amazon doing wrong for consumers and employees gets glossed over by government overreach.
