How is uber and lyft not the goliah when they have billions of dollars poured into them vs the local tax companies...?

Uber is global, your local tax company is not. Plus your local tax company is restrained by you know, laws.

Amazon vs Walmart is also not a good comparison .. I believe this david vs goliah is mostly start up people that think too highly of themselves! In reality you have Google, Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Microsoft... all huge companies that have been dominant for decade + and aren't too different from the post.

We're talking about culture, agility, and mindset, not war chest per se. That is, lean and aggressive vs slothy enterprise.
