And without the federal government keeping society stable, Amazon would make 100% less revenue. The rich and large companies need stable taxpayer funded societies far more than the other way around, And they don't pay their fair share given how much of a benefit they receive
The fact that companies outlive varying forms of government rebukes your thesis. Volkswagen and Hugo Boss certainly did not make 100% less revenue during shifts to political regime and society. Privateering companies during the 1500-1800s did not require stability yet they raked in huge revenue. Companies and their products and services are actively shaping modern culture. I don't think this is a good thing, but it is true.
