No

Capitalism is the free market

2019-01-09 21:51:31 UTC  

Prices determined without any state intervention

2019-01-09 21:51:41 UTC  

Anything interfering by the state is a socialist policy

2019-01-09 21:52:20 UTC  

Capitalism is a market framework made possible by several enabling laws: Property protection, contract enforcement, and IP protection (including patents).

2019-01-09 21:52:28 UTC  

No

2019-01-09 21:52:36 UTC  

I wish we could talk about specific regulations you dislike rather than these broad, sweeping statements about all of regulation. Although since you're against pretty much all regulations idk where to begin.

2019-01-09 21:52:36 UTC  

Capiralism does not require state intervention

2019-01-09 21:52:53 UTC  

any market economy is not a capitalist economy

2019-01-09 21:52:54 UTC  

You may mean that patent law is abused by modern corporations, but patent law itself is among the most *capitalist* laws

2019-01-09 21:52:59 UTC  

No

2019-01-09 21:53:17 UTC  

Because capitalism does not try to monopolies markets

2019-01-09 21:53:24 UTC  

wait what haha

2019-01-09 21:53:24 UTC  

Nor does it allow state intervention

2019-01-09 21:53:35 UTC  

Yes parents create monopolies

2019-01-09 21:53:35 UTC  

Yes it does actually, it allows both in great quantity

2019-01-09 21:53:38 UTC  

in what way does capitalism not try to monopolize markets?

2019-01-09 21:53:40 UTC  

no it does not

2019-01-09 21:53:43 UTC  

you don't know what you're talking about bud

2019-01-09 21:53:52 UTC  

as in it lets the free market determine prices and competition to occur

2019-01-09 21:53:57 UTC  

You’re for laissez faire capitalism then.

2019-01-09 21:53:57 UTC  

Austrian economists agree with me

2019-01-09 21:53:59 UTC  

Thomas Sowell

2019-01-09 21:54:02 UTC  

Hayek

2019-01-09 21:54:10 UTC  

Laissez faire IS capitalism

2019-01-09 21:54:24 UTC  

so you're saying a completely free market would never develop monopolies

2019-01-09 21:54:26 UTC  

laissez faire still has basic regulations including patent law

2019-01-09 21:54:32 UTC  

Yes

2019-01-09 21:54:32 UTC  

which is a very hypothetical situation

2019-01-09 21:54:37 UTC  

A free market would not have monopolies

2019-01-09 21:54:41 UTC  

A natural monopoly is a myth

2019-01-09 21:54:44 UTC  

@Deleted User incorrect

2019-01-09 21:54:44 UTC  

you have autism

2019-01-09 21:54:46 UTC  

No regulations

2019-01-09 21:54:48 UTC  

can you name a time this has been done successfully, recently?

2019-01-09 21:54:55 UTC  

Of course not, it never has been

2019-01-09 21:55:00 UTC  

However the freest markets do the best

2019-01-09 21:55:00 UTC  

Today

2019-01-09 21:55:12 UTC  

I can post a picture confirming that in <#441728840025374731>

2019-01-09 22:18:55 UTC  

I think we could fix healthcare costs with a voucher-type thing

2019-01-09 22:28:46 UTC  

The way I would is
