Corporatism is better than our current system @tea_in_space

2019-11-04 17:51:05 UTC  

Bullshit

2019-11-04 17:51:11 UTC  

utter bullshit

2019-11-04 17:51:25 UTC  

Imagine thinking that higher worker wages and more worker influence in governance is a bad thing

2019-11-04 17:52:25 UTC  

yeah because corporatism is totally not utopianism

2019-11-04 17:53:08 UTC  

free market > corporatism

2019-11-04 17:57:06 UTC  

how long ago did I make that chicken pesto... should still be good right?

2019-11-04 17:57:40 UTC  

Free markets don't work @wacka

2019-11-04 17:57:55 UTC  

they do if the free market is protected

2019-11-04 17:58:05 UTC

You're happy with Facebook, Google and Twitter and what they're doing?

2019-11-04 17:58:31 UTC  

thats not a free market is it?

2019-11-04 17:58:35 UTC  

Yes it is?

2019-11-04 17:58:40 UTC  

They're unregulated

2019-11-04 17:58:45 UTC  

They're left to their own devices

2019-11-04 17:58:50 UTC  

the free market is great what facebook, google and twitter are doing is corporatism

2019-11-04 17:58:52 UTC  

free market != unregulated

2019-11-04 17:58:54 UTC  

More so than any other sector in the world

2019-11-04 17:58:58 UTC  

its the opposit in fact

2019-11-04 17:59:09 UTC  

a free market MUST have regulation

2019-11-04 17:59:10 UTC  

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
