why do you think the royalty family sponsored merchants

2019-05-02 02:24:02 UTC  

So they did sponsor merchants??

2019-05-02 02:24:13 UTC  

???

2019-05-02 02:24:18 UTC  

Also here are my five sources

2019-05-02 02:24:56 UTC  

Like Hobbes would reference in his *Leviathan*, the King does not get rich if he does not make his kingdom rich.

2019-05-02 02:25:13 UTC  

The crown doesn't control all the economic power, he doesn't dictate trading policy

2019-05-02 02:25:23 UTC  

He just says "here's some money, now go get me some good shit on the way home"

2019-05-02 02:25:31 UTC  

Even nobles did this

2019-05-02 02:25:46 UTC  

They would send one of their serf to a neighboring noble's land to see if there were any product of value

2019-05-02 02:25:48 UTC  

and bring back home

2019-05-02 02:26:39 UTC  

It's how Marco Polo's story even got started

2019-05-02 02:26:50 UTC  

He borrowed some money and got a ship to China

2019-05-02 02:26:56 UTC  

He didn't borrow money from the Crown

2019-05-02 02:27:07 UTC  

The Crown already has too much bureaucracy to handle banking so it devolved into local banking institutes or guilds.

2019-05-02 02:27:09 UTC  

They just want to tax

2019-05-02 02:27:36 UTC  

The rise of the middle class in the form of guild system existed during feudalism

2019-05-02 02:29:23 UTC  

The only REAL free market existed long before feudalism but in the early history of man

2019-05-02 02:29:44 UTC  

Where government did not care if there was a monopoly, where they did not care about abusing laborers and cutting maintenance cost on slaves

2019-05-02 02:29:50 UTC  

so as long as the government was getting some $$$ off it

did you just say gn an hour ago

2019-05-02 04:59:10 UTC  

Nobody does the intermitten fasting of sleeping

2019-05-02 08:27:51 UTC  

No

2019-05-02 08:27:59 UTC  

What

2019-05-02 17:17:55 UTC  

why isn't there an alt right role ?

2019-05-02 17:20:58 UTC  

Because there also isn’t a radical left role.

2019-05-02 21:04:08 UTC  

doesnt even make sense to have alt-right

2019-05-02 21:04:10 UTC  

since they are just conservative

2019-05-02 21:04:16 UTC  

just in different origins

2019-05-02 21:04:31 UTC  

actually

2019-05-02 21:04:39 UTC  

There's like 4 waves of Conservatives currently alive.

2019-05-02 21:04:52 UTC  

all 4 with different origins ofc

2019-05-02 21:05:19 UTC  

One rallied around Eisenhower and he's your conspiracy theorist type along with forming the moderate Republican base, (and Nixon copied this style but got watergate'd so likely this wave doesn't exist anymore)

2019-05-02 21:06:40 UTC  

You got the Moral Majority which was a political backlash by religious organizations over second-wave feminism.

2019-05-02 21:06:48 UTC  

rallying around Reagan

2019-05-02 21:07:40 UTC  

Then there's the alt-right which backlashed over fourth-wave feminism (2005s+) rallying around Trump

2019-05-02 21:09:03 UTC  

and then you have the usual outlier with the Conservation Republicans (pro-business in long-term growth)

2019-05-02 21:09:20 UTC  

who rallied around McKinley and T. Roosevelt(mainly Roosevelt)
