I think we need new legislation that prevents companies with a valuation over a certain inflation-adjusted threshold, say $10 billion, from participating in mergers. Then split up the big troublemakers. This way, they can’t just buy each other out until there are only a few left. They have to innovate and compete to keep growing.

Given people have died during these buried alive challenges, that will be a resounding no from me. There’s also a small chance that something happens to the people that bury you and you die slowly in the dark, never knowing what transpired and why you’re still there. Not worth the risk.
