Oh, I'm not defending Amazon in the slightest and that kind of corporatism is disgusting

But speaking more in general terms

Amazon is a revolution in the market, you can get almost any product you want from almost anywhere in the world in the most efficient way possible. How is that disgusting

What does socialism do to farmers

They bring it to you at the lowest price, amazon only has a 2% profit margin.

"Disgusting." Huh.

The government giving unfair advantages to corporations

Which is the doing of lobbyists

@>_ yeah, it's hilarious, Amazon had an even narrower profit margin than that until recently

I don't like what Amazon is doing to domestic markets

it's literally globalist

@>_ by many accounts, Amazon could qualify as a non-profit.

until recently

I support tarrifs but o/w it's fine

Basically

lol

The problem is that the government taxes everyone else

not that they don't tax amazon

Absolutely

I don't support tariffs on their own, but I have confidence that Americans can compete globally if allowed to.

Obamacare crushed small businesses

Because it was a tax

Americans already compete globally

We fucking kill in entertainment

If interim tariffs are used to allow Americans to compete on equal footing in more markets, then I don't mind them

but the key word is interim

So who wants some tea and crumpets with Jack Daniel's

for them to have negotiating weight, we have to be willing to ride them out

@shanepottermi and?

but for them to have social utility, we have to be intent on reversing them

😂

difficult balance, absolutely essential

@Beemann If they were part of the US we'd actually develop them and Canada would probably make more money from it than they do now. If you guys had any intentions of developing it you'd have done it.

Who is happy that canada does not have nukes

Doesn't matter. Canadian soil. Just close the borders if youre worried about space m8

I had one of my democrat socialist friend ask me if I look up to Noam Chomsky. I glanced it off because I'm not trying to get into arguments left and right anymore. Thinking back on it I wonder if they even know Noam Chomsky's thoughts on Socialism and Social Marxism.

From what I understand the only part of Canada that is really developed is Ontario. Every other part is wilderness occasionally penetrated by narrow highways.
