  • You danced around the fact that late stage capitalism is a shitshow of monopolies.

    Secondly, “renewable” does not equal “unlimited”.

    Food, despite being renewable, is not unlimited, regardless of scientific advancements. It is a limited resource, and access to it is extremely limited in a monopolistic late-stage capitalistic system. Land, housing, minerals, and the physical components of all consumer goods are composed of limited resources.

    Time is a limited resource.

    Lowering regulations for private entities would empower them against corporations.

    Are you suggesting we have a more powerful government to limit incorporation? Otherwise, private entities stand no chance.

    If you are suggesting the government abolish the right to incorporate, I’d entertain that notion with you. As well as an amendment to the 14th amendment while we’re at it.

    And just for clarity, when we’re talking about regulations, are you also suggesting we dismantle things like the FDA?

    We live in a world with limited resources. Late stage capitalism is characterized partly by a concentration of wealth. Anyone that has played the board game Monopoly understands the issues with the concentration of wealth, and access to concentrated wealth in a world of limited resources accords a few individuals almost unlimited power over the majority.

    Limiting government regulations over fiscal entities just trades governmental tyranny for corporate tyranny over the working-class.
