So we have "free" markets through strong regulation?

2019-11-04 17:59:27 UTC  

we have free speech right?

2019-11-04 17:59:33 UTC  

who protects that right?

2019-11-04 17:59:37 UTC  

new ballots being printed and checked as the candidates are whittled down, that will be done in around 20 mins
then MPs will get 20 minutes to vote

2019-11-04 17:59:41 UTC  

for speaker election

2019-11-04 18:00:20 UTC  

the right to enter the market and be unhindered by big corps also must be protected

2019-11-04 18:00:24 UTC  

a monopoly controlling the market isn't a free market, its why we regulate against monopolies

2019-11-04 18:00:31 UTC  

why is that hard to understand?

2019-11-04 18:02:37 UTC  

Okay so you're using a different definiton of a free market, gotcha

2019-11-04 18:02:50 UTC  

Im using "the" definition

2019-11-04 18:03:30 UTC  

What you're really talking about, is a mixed economy. Which is a good thing

2019-11-04 18:03:33 UTC  

🤷

2019-11-04 18:03:50 UTC  

no Im talking about a free market

2019-11-04 18:04:09 UTC  

where anyone can set up a company .. and freely trade without hindrence

2019-11-04 18:04:40 UTC  

from other companies

2019-11-04 18:05:01 UTC  

other than fair competition where (and this is the important bit) the consumer decides

2019-11-04 18:08:39 UTC  

Boomerism is the superior state of being

2019-11-04 18:09:51 UTC  

So if we follow that definition, there are no free markets anywhere. @wacka

2019-11-04 18:10:04 UTC  

*I wonder why that could be?*

2019-11-04 18:10:17 UTC  

probably because of corporatism

2019-11-04 18:10:31 UTC  

it's a movement now @Dubdogelmo ?

2019-11-04 18:10:34 UTC  

Boomerism

2019-11-04 18:10:48 UTC  

Neo-Boomers rise up

2019-11-04 18:10:58 UTC  

Can any generation become Boomers?

2019-11-04 18:11:52 UTC  

Yes Boomerism isn't an age, its a state of mind

2019-11-04 18:14:04 UTC  

its a compliment really...

2019-11-04 18:14:31 UTC  

people can only dream of having all their mortgage paid off... ready for retirement

2019-11-04 18:21:15 UTC  

People who hate boomers genuinely are just jealous

2019-11-04 18:26:02 UTC  

hoho

2019-11-04 18:29:01 UTC  

a pure free market

2019-11-04 18:29:10 UTC  

is not a good thing

2019-11-04 18:29:20 UTC  

Simply because the companies care more about profits

2019-11-04 18:29:23 UTC  

than they do about well being

2019-11-04 18:36:01 UTC  

Well that's new

2019-11-04 18:40:33 UTC  

tbh can we just reunite Ireland at this point

2019-11-04 18:40:49 UTC  

If that's what they want then sure

2019-11-04 18:41:15 UTC  

If we get brexit we probably will get reunification
