Because otherwise the companies that do win the global markets do the same thing to US companies that you are saying Amazon does to small companies.

How is it a good thing for the US to limit their own companies, when foreign companies don't have the same limitations? Giant companies will still exist, they will just cease to be US based companies.

Fair take. The US could penalize/limit/tariff those outside megacorps like China does though, right? I'm not sure trade should be completely free when an outside competitor can skirt your local laws.
