2019-08-31 23:19:01 UTC

2019-08-31 23:19:37 UTC  

What's the difference? Lmao

2019-08-31 23:19:59 UTC  

You don't trust monopolies, yet you welcome a monopoly by the state

2019-08-31 23:19:59 UTC  

a corporation is built to pray upon you

2019-08-31 23:20:08 UTC  

And govt. Isn't?

2019-08-31 23:20:11 UTC

The difference between a state and a corporation is that the corporation has to actually earn its money

2019-08-31 23:21:41 UTC  

The state just takes it by force

I was about to post that

2019-08-31 23:23:03 UTC  

That shows a fundamental misunderstanding of what I'm even saying

2019-08-31 23:23:07 UTC  

Corporations are built to provide a good or service in exchange for something else to make a profit. This may or may not be beneficial to the public good but at least they are a predictable. A government is beholden to many more interests than corporations and thus are less trustworthy even if they may serve the public better in some cases. This is why we should still have some govt. presence although it should be small and heavily watched

2019-08-31 23:23:40 UTC  

@-5K- maybe, but I can also choose a different company in the free market

2019-08-31 23:23:51 UTC  

Can I choose a different rapist?

2019-08-31 23:24:44 UTC  

@MountainMan You can choose to avoid and never do business with every single one of the companies listed.

Can you choose to not do business with your govt?

2019-08-31 23:24:51 UTC  

You can choose a different private police force which covers rapes at a premium discount for the first 30 days

2019-08-31 23:25:07 UTC  

I agree, but how would you choose a different decentralized law system? @Fitzydog

2019-08-31 23:25:17 UTC  

That'd be great.

At least they show up, unlike the public police

2019-08-31 23:25:21 UTC  

Monopoly always bad

2019-08-31 23:25:36 UTC  

Then why monopolize state violence?

2019-08-31 23:25:50 UTC  

Wait So you're for private police?

2019-08-31 23:25:51 UTC  

don't you have like 3 police forces?

2019-08-31 23:25:56 UTC  

or more

2019-08-31 23:26:02 UTC  

Local, state and federal

2019-08-31 23:26:08 UTC  

All of which don't earn their money?

2019-08-31 23:26:21 UTC  

Private courts <:think_woke:378717098681171988>

2019-08-31 23:26:25 UTC  

And have jurisdictions that they monopolize over
