Government needs to prevent monopolies and enforce standards

2019-10-20 12:36:32 UTC  

No

2019-10-20 12:36:38 UTC  

Let Monopolies develop

2019-10-20 12:36:53 UTC  

No monopoly lasts forever

2019-10-20 12:36:59 UTC  

well, they won't be free from the state, but even insofar as they are they certainly won't be free from the concentrated economic power of capitalists

2019-10-20 12:37:01 UTC  

Another company will combat them

2019-10-20 12:37:26 UTC  

which themselves derive their power from rules enforced by the state

2019-10-20 12:37:29 UTC  

In fact the State is the main reason for Monopolies getting close to developing due to subsidies and favoured treatement

2019-10-20 12:37:54 UTC  

You have monopolies, you have no free market

2019-10-20 12:38:23 UTC  

You don't have a genuine free market if you regulate the economy to prevent monopolies

2019-10-20 12:40:25 UTC  

So basically if you have no freedom it's ok because it wasnt the government

2019-10-20 12:40:31 UTC  

200IQ

2019-10-20 12:40:47 UTC  

No Corporation would ever gain that power

2019-10-20 12:41:13 UTC  

It's an impossible scenario that under this system one company would just take over everything

2019-10-20 12:41:17 UTC  

Yes, because no corp would create a huge monopoly

2019-10-20 12:41:24 UTC  

Some might yes

2019-10-20 12:41:26 UTC  

just unthinkable

2019-10-20 12:41:43 UTC  

And then another corporation would combat them and bring back competition

2019-10-20 12:41:53 UTC  

all competitions for power result in one side gaining a lead, and then using their position of power to keep potential competitors down, centralized power is a reality, i want the sovereign power i exist under to be an institution that acts in such a way to transcend the interests of a particular economic class

2019-10-20 12:42:07 UTC  

At most a corporation could have a temporary monopoly in one area

2019-10-20 12:42:08 UTC  

Would they lizard. I guess hostile takeovers arnt real

2019-10-20 12:42:09 UTC  

Fake new

2019-10-20 12:42:17 UTC  

Not absoloute power over everything

2019-10-20 12:42:28 UTC  

In a total free market

2019-10-20 12:42:33 UTC  

the most powerful corporation rules

2019-10-20 12:42:38 UTC  

they can in fact fuck you over

2019-10-20 12:42:51 UTC  

And even if it isnt to fuck over other corps

2019-10-20 12:42:58 UTC  

To line the pockets of the execs

2019-10-20 12:43:00 UTC  

Again, No Corporation would gain that power to rule over everyone

2019-10-20 12:43:01 UTC  

that will hand it over

2019-10-20 12:43:24 UTC  

It is just something that would never happen

2019-10-20 12:43:29 UTC  

You have a severe misunderstanding of human nature

2019-10-20 12:43:37 UTC  

The same misunderstanding as your opposites have

2019-10-20 12:44:13 UTC  

Why would it never happen? Because they will just agree to stop accumulating power?

2019-10-20 12:44:16 UTC  

Humans are greedy yes, Corporations ran by people will try to take power, My point is that even if they try they will never be able to

2019-10-20 12:44:32 UTC  

Due to other corporations combating them

2019-10-20 12:44:53 UTC  

Why? Apple could and would lake over google if they were allowed

2019-10-20 12:45:03 UTC  

Because it would make them much more powerful

2019-10-20 12:45:08 UTC  

just as the state has to protect a persons free speech rights... it has to protect a businesses free market rights

2019-10-20 12:45:11 UTC  

It would likely be bloody

2019-10-20 12:45:28 UTC  

And then new companies would be set up to combat them
