I'm a fit centrist

yeah, i can agree with that Atkins

Information TERRORISM

In an ideal world Elon Musk made anime girls real

Capitalism is pretty good, but no human system is perfect. That's black and white thinking in a world of grey. All human systems fuck up eventually.

Its roughly what i meant,

Keep the market free, but if it starts becoming unbalanced, have government give it a little "nudge" in the right direction again

@>_ Elon Chan*

I quite college. started a business that made to much money to Warrant wasting it on a school that didn't have any teacher that could teach me anything. Sold the business to become a farming scholar. its winter so i now have time. to do scholarly things.

but not force it, cuz Government is bad at making choices 😄

Elon Musk is only Elon Chan in an ideal world @Crimsom

its almost insulting to be called an academic. 😛

I love it when instead of debating ideas we devolve to debating how big brain we are

```Keep the market free, but if it starts becoming unbalanced, have government give it a little "nudge" in the right direction again```
Exactly my point. The Gouvernment has to look at the corporations that they don't abuse the Consumer and misuse them as well as the Market, so that they don't force other companys to do things their way.

Only an academic deals in absolutes.

well, thats a grey area already,

Who decides whats "abusing the consumer"?

wish i had a big brain.

Big gay

Big gay decides

noice

Look, as long as the coprs aren't colluding, chances are they are going to work in the best interest of the consumer

@Dr.Wol Don't do something with the Data the User gives you and don't do products that will hurt or kill the Consumer when used correctly.

competition is the best sauce

We all know gays have superior judgement

@Zer0 I'm happy for you, and yes, being called an academic now rarely comes with any respect. Keep to your research over the winter, come up with some new theory or something. Personally, even if it is sub-par to quality some professors paper may have, as long as you introduce something new to the field and develop it, you are contributing much more to society than any professor who just regurgitates the things his colleagues say.

Sooo, I had a discussion with an "intellectual" the other day... It was pretty interesting...

welp there goes alcohol banning 😛

"Don't do something with the Data the user gives you"
That's all tech and financial transactions ever, really

@Swedishmafia101 Did he actually call himself an intellectual

you can argue that Alcohol doesn't hurt you, when applied correctly.

and i can agree on don't misuse personal data,

But then again, if...

What beemann just said

```competition is the best sauce```
Problem is that some markets (or all?) tend to go towards Monopolys.

@Stefan Payne Directly to the forehead.

Can we ban thots already k thnks

@Crimsom yes, he called himself an intellectual in the most ridiculous sentence ever

@Stefan Payne Which is why governments role should be to ensure competition

@Swedishmafia101 Lmao, how humble.

Monopolys wouldn't be bad if they had the consumer at heart,

But they don't, so they inevitably go bad

ala, what they aren't doing with telcoms

Any market with a significant barrier to entry tends to monopoly.

I got into talking about fitness and the importance of a healthy lifestyle...
