I had a small family growing up and that always bothered me.

There was an initiative in Washington that would create a new tax on corporations, but the biggest ones would be exempt. These guys are really slimy and try everything to screw over good guys like you.

yes ^ it’s awful. I agree.

It exempt like the 5 biggest or something

very weird

I don’t deny corporatism exists. It’s evil. I just disagree on the solution.

Because unfortunately many attempts to fix that screw us over.

I mean, to be fair, that wasn't really an example of capitalism

Though it is an example of how Amazon and the like are pretty universally evil

Amazon has made it difficult for us because their subsidized free shipping changes consumer behavior.

Now the expectations have totally changed unnaturally.

That seems kind of inevitable when we let corporations get too large

That they'll buy themselves political power

Perhaps. Perhaps not. This is one of the better original essays on unintended consequences of law though and it should inform attempts to regulate: bastiat.org/en/twisatwins.html

@metasophocles I know Henry Ford wanted the US to us Ethanol instead of petroleum. We'd have the fuel we need from corn.

It takes more ethanol to go the same distance, but it works pretty well.

oh God
