What it means is that he wouldn't have been able to get where he got if it hadn't been for the scientific achievements of his predecessors. If it hadn't been for these "giants" that enabled him to see so far, he wouldn't have been able to make all the discoveries that he did. For those coming after him, he was a giant that enabled them, and so laws and theories and scientific knowledge always increases based on the knowledge before it.
Answer:
the customer service representative’s rude behavior caused me to quit doing business with the company.

In this excerpt, swift is listing tons of other suggestions that people have made. the long list begins with "<span>Therefore let no man talk to me of other expedients..." and he goes on to list these so-called "expedients"--which are measures or means to get attain something (and these means are often immoral).
just for context, "a modest proposal" is a satirical work. swift intends to paint these perfectly rational suggestions (from taxation to isolationism to increase their own failing economy) as something incredibly immoral, just before he suggests that his country begin eating children to sustain themselves.
this excerpt begins with "</span><span>I can think of no one objection, that will possibly be raised against this proposal..." which shows that swift believes HIS proposal to be the best of them all. (remember that this is a satire, so this emphasis is meant to be ironic. he knows his proposal is terrible, he's just proving a point.) from there, he begins listing all the other things that people have suggested and things that the government has tried within the country, and he basically pokes fun at them.</span>
