yes it does depend on factors

2019-08-02 22:37:23 UTC  

i honestly think certain aspects of the government should be expanded

2019-08-02 22:37:36 UTC  

and others should be remove or limited

2019-08-02 22:37:49 UTC  

Border wall is an example of a big government program that is necessary

2019-08-02 22:38:09 UTC  

And other forms of immigration restrictions

2019-08-02 22:38:18 UTC  

agreed

2019-08-02 22:38:54 UTC  

SAIKAT CHAMRABARTI IS GONE

2019-08-02 22:39:12 UTC  

though i do think the government should privatize the building of the wall and other border security elements

2019-08-02 22:40:02 UTC  

What do you think will happen when the owner of that part of the private wall decides to let Mexicans in on his whim

2019-08-02 22:40:13 UTC  

not a private wall land

2019-08-02 22:40:18 UTC  

With the govt. wall, the govt. is accountable to the people

2019-08-02 22:40:24 UTC  

Private corporations are not

2019-08-02 22:40:44 UTC  

i mean like the government contracts someone to build the wall for them

2019-08-02 22:40:49 UTC  

they own the land and what not

2019-08-02 22:41:23 UTC  

In that case, it can be feasible

2019-08-02 22:42:02 UTC  

i think a lot of thing can be done well with that approach

2019-08-02 22:42:12 UTC  

This is why State Capitalism > Minarchy

2019-08-02 22:43:06 UTC  

i'm not a fan of state owned business tho

2019-08-02 22:43:19 UTC  

ie state monopolies

2019-08-02 22:44:24 UTC  

though i can agree that there needs to be more than just the military, police and courts

2019-08-02 22:45:00 UTC  

how about

2019-08-02 22:45:04 UTC  

Megarchy

2019-08-02 22:45:07 UTC  

dab

2019-08-02 22:45:22 UTC  

I meant the role of State can be used for breaking monopolies and allowing proper competition

2019-08-02 22:45:43 UTC  

oh i 100% agree with that

2019-08-02 22:45:59 UTC  

i hate monopiles and the lack of competition

2019-08-02 22:46:40 UTC  

DEF: State capitalism is an economic system in which the state undertakes commercial economic activity and where the means of production are organized and managed as state-owned business enterprises

2019-08-02 22:46:58 UTC  

This is why you cannot have reasonable competition in the tech industry and simultaneously have IP laws

2019-08-02 22:47:22 UTC  

Either abolish IP laws, or have some provisions by which states can break such monopolies

2019-08-02 22:47:42 UTC  

Yeah, I was using State Capitalism in a loose way

2019-08-02 22:48:16 UTC  

well i think IP are fine but i don't think they should last so long

2019-08-02 22:48:40 UTC  

if Ip laws didn't exist the would be massive problems

2019-08-02 22:48:55 UTC  

Yeah, I agree that IP laws are necessary

2019-08-02 22:48:59 UTC  

drugs for a example cost billions to create

2019-08-02 22:49:12 UTC  

if ip laws weren't there people could just steal them

2019-08-02 22:49:15 UTC  

But it also hinders the ability of another Google or FB to pop up

2019-08-02 22:49:18 UTC  

In a reasonable time

2019-08-02 22:49:36 UTC  

And hence creates dis balance when they attain monopoly

2019-08-02 22:49:53 UTC  

Such as what we are seeing currently with the mass censorship
