@Unwound There used to be 5-10k cell phone companies in the U.S. Now there are 3. Why? Gov't regulation. The big boys ask the gov't to require 911 services. Those smaller companies that could not raise the money to provide it or would not be profitable if they did had to sell out to those who could. Then it was text mesg. Then internet access. Then high speed internet access. Until now there are only 3 and soon to be 2. But you can't call it a monopoly because AT&T and Verizon are "competitors." I mean there is literally only 2 channels allowed in a given area. If you were to try to start a cell phone company you'd still have to rent time on one of the big 2's networks.
who's Mike Pence?
**The Wanderer#0809** just left the server.
Duopoly, lmao
true, yes. I wish more realize that @CasualSailor
@CasualSailor Don't forget that without govt regulation, you would just have people sitting on really localized monopolies, selling access to their infrastructure at a price point that is just where it needs to be that it's more profitable to rent from them, than to make your own
wishful thinking is far too prevalent
like net neutrality, all of reddit was crying for it.
You need some regulation to make the market operate smoothly
i hope tim will draw some kinda of a paper to help Joe with his upcoming Dorsey podcast, cause there was A LOT
unreal
@Tinytim No monopoly can exist without government force. If it is profitable to compete then someone will. Only the gov't has the ability to create arbitrary expenses that would prevent competition.
the podcast with Dorsey will be entirely scripted. no doubt
@Dr.Wol Are you answering a Jeproady question or are you asking about the vice president of the US?
Dorsey will probably bring some power to to damage control like PR heads and shit
I loved when Tim shut jamie the fuck up
when was that? anyone have timestamp
Anyone got a timestamp?
@CasualSailor there have been plenty of monopolies throughout time. For instance, telecom, if the existing infrastructure owners refuse to let new people onto the market, but keep margins just at the right level, no one will want to invest, and if they do invest, the monopolies price dump and kill the profits of the competitor
@H3llbender Just look for when they are showing the photo of the swat team and the OK hand symbol.
the ancap idea of perfect competition only works with a banking system willing to sustain infinite risk
Not only Tim, even Joe got pissed off at Jamie after a while
Joe what does that even mean Rogan
Joe is just acting his part.
guarantee jaimy will be shut the fuck up in few next episodes kek
Jamie fucked up big
Can't be seen as "woke".
