if you can't get your products to the market maybe your product is really shit
and nobody wants it
monpolies exist because of a lack of regulation
How do you know if its never presented to the consumer?
consumers are the markets
no consumers go to the markets
whats stopping you from approaching them
which markets
its not a location
geez
where do you think they gio
fucking Asda?
its an ability to reach the product in the same way as competing prodducts
hense the browser choice system
Yes so tell me a scenario where its limiting you from reaching those markets
The regulation of a free market isnt an on/off, yes /no question. It's one of degrees.
just like free speech then
Broadly speaking yes.
what about in degrees
An unsafe product would be analogous to a persons speech preventing another person from from exercising their free speech.
because an unsafe product would be deemed unsafe for failing particular standards
enforced by external agencies
@system11 That's untrue you need to look how law makers and regulators work with establishment business work hand in hand.
Yes but the agency would have oversight from government, and government is elected by the people, who broadly speaking are the market.
same in the case for someones speech too
This Regulationism is Neo Liberal/Neo Con nonsense.
if it wasnt for regulation... we would all be using internet explorer right now
Better than Google tbh
Um no not really Orionstar. It's a concept that has existed for thousands of years. It has emerged in almost every politically and technologically advanced society.
depends on if they bothered to improve it since ie5
You need to look into the regulation and government subsidies that made that corporation that powerful in the first place.
Hmm interesting isn't it, for free markets to exist there needs to be a regulations in place, but whats the point when corporations can dictate to have it benefit them.
Human error and corruption affects everything orionstar, you need to look at the principle in its entirety not just focus on the worst aspects of it.
it needs protective regulation... like the constitution
the principle doesn't matter because its operated upon by people who're prone to like you say human error and corruption
we're talking about regulation to protect a free and open market
thats all thats needed
Yes the same regulations that corporations benefit from for their advantage right? Cos we do have anti trust laws
and yet they exist
how could you benefit from a regulation that keeps a free market (i/e just makes sure that consumers can always have the freedom to choose)
