And you only prove that you have NO clue what I believe.
A PhD means shit. It means you've been given a stamp of approval by the NWO.
Complete government control over the prices and distribution of goods, with the mindset that the people have a RIGHT to control or take what someone else has (collective ownership vs. private property) IS communism.
I am in favor of the people, not a despot, ruling the nation, SO LONG AS THEY DO NOT INFRINGE ON ANYONE'S RIGHTS. Not even a majority vote should infringe upon a minority. I'm not in favor of despotism, or of mob-rule by the people. I'm in favor of individual rights, and personal and private property.
Quoting: Babylon's Rebel I love it. You say people know nothing about economics, but when they are shown to know something, you say it means shit. In other words, you are just an ideologue. Got it. Fucking owned. You are the one who has no knowledge of what you talk about, as can be seen through the use of the word, communism. Oh, and btw, a monopoly (which easily develops without regulations) means people having to deal with it are not free. A monopoly is not communist, but the end product of unregulated capitalism (which is not the same thing as free markets, which, if you knew economics, you would know). Now, part of the role of government is to make sure there really ARE free markets by regulating things so to prevent the end of unregulated capitalism, the monopoly which demolishes freedom. The market should be regulated voluntarily by the consumers, not by the government. It takes a population of intelligent and wise consumers to prevent monopoly, and mass boycott to destroy a monopoly once its in place. We don't need the government to get involved. But like I said, this approach requires an intelligent and caring populace, which is something we don't have, and hence our shitty system we live under. Government regulation has only made it worse, especially since the government usually inteferes only to help maintain monopolies rather than prevent them (politicians acting for the benefit of their corporate donors and lobbyists). Government regulation is the VERY REASON we have so much monopoly in this country. Can you tell me that the medical and pharma industry monopolies are not the direct result of government regulation? Such regulations are in place to ensure the survival of those monopolies. Former executives from the largest corporations, as well as controlling stock holders, fill all of the key positions in those government regulatory bodies. Again, you show no understanding to economics. Consumers vs monopoly for something which is essential for life means the consumers cannot regulate anything. You still show yourself ignorant of economics, and what freedom itself is about. When one side controls everything at the table, the other has only the freedom of obedience or death; that is not true freedom. When one side controls everything, as you said, you have a monopoly. Monopolies never arise in the first place unless the consumers allow them to (or unless the government enforces a monopoly). The populace should NEVER allow themselves to become dependent on a monopolistic power in the first place. Self reliance is the solution. Government control breeds monopoly.
