century military. here is my example of that. a lot of new tech. a lot of new cyber. esponses are not places where a 20th century military has real strength. it's more about conventional weapons and large armies and so on and the ability to engage in shooting wars around the world. the problem kind of coherent problem at the pentagon is that there's always somebody in the room to defend an existing program, no matter how old it is, no matter how much circumstances have changed. somebody is at the head of that program. somebody hands out the dollars to the defense industry that promotes that prab. there's rarely somebody in the room for the next idea, for the place we need to be. yet, to have an effective military, we have to be on the front edge, not the back edge of development. i tell you where i would spend a lot more money, it's a small part of the pentagon budget, on research, development, cyber. that's the place we have to get the pentagon more focused in that direction. >> back to rapid-fire. >> sure. >> what has donald trump done that could be considered impeac

tech in the way they have. i think this is something we have done before when it came to standard oil and the rail roads in the early 20th centuryey basically were holding in private hands public inf infrastructure everyone had to use. amazon, google, facebook, these are public pieces of infrastructure held in private hands and that is the rationale for breaking up the corporations, they're monopolies everyone has to use. >> amy klobuchar thinks there needs to be more muscle in washington, d.c. what does that look like how senator warren said, reevaluate facebook's acquisition of ins instagr instagram. >> first the challenge is changing the way we think about monopolies in the context of companies like amazon. they don't fit the traditional evils. the reason monopolies are evil is because when there's no competition, you can create any price you want and we're forced to pay it. amazon flipped the model completely. they engage in predatory pricing so the person harmed is not us the consumers. facebook is free, amazon has the lowest prices but instead they lower their prices to eliminate the competition and as consumers day to day

tech companies like amazon but she doesn't say how she would do that. to me, stuart, this is like the government capping light bulb sales in the early 20th century to protecte makers. that is anti-competition. stuart: i think she would say, they're operating a monopoly and go after them on antitrust grounds because you can't have a monopoly, to undo the deals they have made in previous years. think that i is how she would do it. >> i would argue that amazon has been so successful because they offer better prices. that is ultimately good for consumers, especially people lower down on the economic ladder. with every technological advancement comes new opportunities. amazon employs over half a million people. many are high-paying jobs. they pay their low-skilled workers a minimum of 15 bucks an hour. that is double the federal minimum wage. you have these other big on-line retailers like etsy created opportunities for entrepreneurs and local artists to expand their sales. i see this as exciting time to be in tech. not a time to clamp down on innovation. stuart: another quick question as libertarian, how do you feel about the power that a facebook and google h
