Monopolies are almost impossible in a free market

That a company grows and grows

For a company having a monopoly means that they can set prices, set their own quality standards and sell what they want. They're big enough to destroy competition, so they reap all the rewards

it's natural that every company wants to become one

And it eventually happens

How do they destroy competition without the state

They can literally just buy their competition if they're ahead enough

Laissez Faire economics

That's not destroying it tho

basically the state is uninvolved

Lol this is not how things works

It's basically the same tho

THey do price dumping and engage in price wars they can afford because they're running economies of scale

If you buy a business you can do what you want with it

Kind of like Disney I guess

Disney just fucking buys everything

Didn't you hear?

Disney is losing $$$

I love how this argument went full circle to "we can't have private epolice forces because they'll create a (very inefficient, and easily usurpable) monopoly, therefore we need to have a state monopoly of the police."

During the gilded age, when government interference in the markets was minimal, companies were able to grow enormously and even have huge leverage in government affairs

>govt affairs

The State monopoly has its interests in protecting the population, a private company wants to make profit

@galesteppes yeah cuz it keeps making shitty Star Wars movies <:kek:590371888480387073>

So you're saying govt was still involved?

by involved in being uninvolved?

There won't be gov affairs with a tiny state

Holy SHIT

IMAGINE BELEIVING THE STATE ACTUALLY HAS AN INTEREST IN YOUR SAFETY AND WELLBEING

That has no real power against it's own citizens

Bruh moment

Well ofc it does

Jfc

You have to be alive for them to tax you

Talk about brainwashing

I mean I understand that you're an anarchist, but come on...

You can destroy a man without killing him

Why do you think women got the vote? <:pepe_smug:560207654207750154>

And rights in general

@Capitán Alatriste Come on what? This is my main point for anarchism.

The state has zero interest in your wellbeing.

So they can own property so it can be taxed
