That would just result in them pursuing self-interest, meaning pooling of more resources in almost exclusively their favor. That breaks the ability to hamper the control of corporations.

Like today, it's very clear that our leaders no longer represent the best interests of the people they serve.

That’s because of capitalism

that's because of rampant regulation.

it has nothing to do with capitalism

What rampant regulation.

capitalism is the natural state

Yes because politicians are owned by corporations to push what they want because of regulations

humans trading labor for value

Okay

Corporations are continuously attempting to lobby to Congress and attempt to pass themselves off as personal entities.

there is literally no other way

That’s counterintuitive to regulation.

No?

Corporatism and socialism

Agreed with corporatism.

besides Luxury gay space Communism....which is a fantasy.. this is not star trek

I agree more with corporatism but not socialism

Corporatism is an interesting mixed economic model.

Corporatism is epic

And so natsyndie

I haven’t studied that one enough.

Capitalism is a replication of natural biology. Organisms trade effort/work for resources/value.
The ONLY way to form a society without labor/value exchange is if you remove the biological element. Therefore Socialism and Communism advocate for the destruction of not only individuality but natural biological function as a whole.
The only way for Communism to work is to remove the human element.

**mic drop**

That's absolutely fine. Capitalism is basically the method to sustain the upkeep of the state; a planned economy is needed while you're establishing the state because you need to allocate raw materials/sectors that will ultimately allow you to prop up the consumer economy at a later time.

But to recklessly pursue unregulated capitalism is dangerous in that you would allow predatory corporations to destroy that competition, and in turn hamper innovation.

Even in Star Trek they realized that it was retarded to just fly around not paying for anything, that's why they invented "platinum bars" as a medium of exchange.

Well if there is a predator nature will find a way around it. either by killing the beast or evolving to not be threatened

"Nature finds a way"

So you need some form of regulation, which we are currently lacking because of evident tax loopholes for corporations and PAC lobbying.

oh ye of little faith

How will you kill the megacorporation.

What is a porcupine?

Say, you're a layman.

a layman can fire a cannon and gun

And you see this large multicorp, that has developed for several years, has multiple shareholders, and has successfully lobbied the government multiple times to the point where they are more than willing to bail it out in the case they file for bankruptcy, I.E. GM.

a layman can wield a blade

*"They have taken up arms "in defence of the Freedom that is our Birthright and which we ever enjoyed until the late Violation of it", and will "lay them down when Hostilities shall cease on the part of the Aggressors"."*

You don't just fall out of the sky a fully grown human, you are brought up in a culture, a society, and it is the duty of that society to imbue that individual with the knowledge to protect and extend that culture.

People do have a natural tendency to trade but as capitalism progresses it becomes more and more morally corrupt

That's why the 2nd amendment isnt just about being able to own a gun... it's literally about the ability of citizens to have exactly the same weapons as the professional military so they can be resisted and killed if necessary, if they become tyrannical

that's just nonsense
