You can have competition without capitalism

2018-10-23 06:48:11 UTC  

Yup. I agree. National interests and the interests of the well-being of the people should come first

2018-10-23 06:48:17 UTC  

now customers are scarce, so you can't both exist. Would you feel morally right to condemn your comrade to bankrupcy simply because of his choice of profession?

2018-10-23 06:48:45 UTC  
2018-10-23 06:48:54 UTC  

I would argue it's immoral to bankrupt him, for he is your comrade

2018-10-23 06:49:00 UTC  

Agreed

2018-10-23 06:49:02 UTC  

and by doing yourself well you are doing him harm

2018-10-23 06:49:07 UTC  

I would say I'm a national capitalist. Probably the closest example in US history is Teddy Roosevelt

2018-10-23 06:49:27 UTC  

therefore, competition forces people to be immoral

2018-10-23 06:49:35 UTC  

therefore competition is a something to be avoided

Meh... idk

2018-10-23 06:50:17 UTC  

Competition is inevitable because the laws of supply and demand are inevitable. Trying to avoid it is utopian fantasizing

2018-10-23 06:50:29 UTC  

Yup^

2018-10-23 06:50:38 UTC  

but the state has to minimize

2018-10-23 06:50:43 UTC  

because it makes people immoral

2018-10-23 06:50:48 UTC  

and develop vice

2018-10-23 06:51:10 UTC  

The only goods transferred should be military issue. Economics itself is a vice

2018-10-23 06:51:19 UTC  

@DairyMaxx juche gang?

2018-10-23 06:51:30 UTC  

I'll say the answer is inbetween, god forbid you call me out as a... *centrist*.

2018-10-23 06:52:04 UTC  

that's handwavy

2018-10-23 06:52:07 UTC  

where is in between then

2018-10-23 06:52:13 UTC  

I don't think it's immoral to want more business to go to you. Now if you were to sabotage your competition, that's one thing, but barring that, competition incentivizes providing a better product in hopes of winning customers

2018-10-23 06:52:18 UTC  

Things that cannot be avoided:
Competition,
Supply and demand,
And
Greed (human nature regardless of tribe)

2018-10-23 06:52:29 UTC  

^^

2018-10-23 06:52:55 UTC  

so we have 2 things that are vices, and instead of fighting them we'll jsut accept them

2018-10-23 06:53:01 UTC  

sounds like a slippery slope into the modern world tbqh

2018-10-23 06:53:16 UTC  

And competition is what leads to growth. minimizing it is a bad idea. Letting it go rampant, is also a bad idea.

2018-10-23 06:53:18 UTC  

The system has to abide by human nature

2018-10-23 06:53:29 UTC  

human nature cannot be one of vice

2018-10-23 06:53:32 UTC  

I'm still pretty undecided on economics

2018-10-23 06:53:35 UTC  

Growth is over rated. We need stability

2018-10-23 06:53:42 UTC  

^

2018-10-23 06:53:43 UTC  

If you consider greed vice, then it is

2018-10-23 06:53:48 UTC  

I'm ripe for converting to your favorite system

2018-10-23 06:53:50 UTC  

@YourFundamentalTheorum Vice is inextricably human

2018-10-23 06:53:51 UTC  

would you not agree that grid is vice?

2018-10-23 06:53:57 UTC  

*greed

2018-10-23 06:53:59 UTC  

feel free to proselytize to me

2018-10-23 06:54:08 UTC  

@Jacob national syndicalism is best
