Among the topics covered:

How the antitrust attack on Google is driven by hatred of its productive virtues;

How the DOJ's remedies for Google's alleged crime punish their success;

Google’s failure to challenge the government’s right to persecute them;

Why calling out the evil of antitrust would give Google the moral high ground;

How the Trump administration is just as bad as Biden’s on antitrust prosecution;

What Google and other persecuted businesses can do to defend themselves.
