I'm not really talking about technical scale here. I'm talking about economic scale. In those terms, it does indeed seem that the EU is falling behind.

Also, it is not just a show of power, because these companies are reaping economic benefits from their power.

> But it has little positive balance on everyday life.

That's really your personal opinion. Many people (me included) would argue that the scale of these companies definitely makes a difference in your everyday life.
