The environment, healthcare, people's rights get stomped on because they have no voice, religious extremism unchecked, the gap between the rich and the poor grows wider, corporations take advantage and do sketchy things, should I go on? Short term gain shouldn't be instantly recognized as sustainable.
Feel like Americans don't realize that they're country is great. When I say great I mean that it's not simply just numbers/money. There's more to a country such as the environment, healthcare, transportation, safety, education, etc. If you limit your definition of a successful country to just balancing the budget, it'll never end. A politician will always be able to scare you into voting for them by scaring you about the economy and using smear campaigns about the other candidates.

yes it is. if people don't like it, they can protest it, post about it on social media, and sue companies they believe are doing significant harm to the animals or people that live there. i'm against the government getting involved in terms of regulations. you should be too.
>>721141197
I dispute that the majority of people care enough to stay informed about their decisions for everyday matters.
In your argument you make the assertopm that free market capitalism is civilisation - I disagree with this. Yes people can exert influence with how they spend their money but that is only one of a number of influences on business and state practises.

>>721142221
But how people spend their money is more than just quality of products/service and value for money. As an example public representation is arguably more important than either of those things, just look at how many major web services are supported entirely by advertising.
Also there are significant issues with free markets including natural monopolies, price-fixing cartels and the misrepresentation of highly-technical goods to consumers that are not capable of understanding when they are being ripped off. Not that I think free markets are all bad, I just don't think that leaving everything to companies will result in a better system than the corrupt regulated markets present in the west now.

>>721147535
A natural monopoly can easily form when a large enough company crowds out the market using anticompetitive tactics. Government intervention is not required for this to take place. There are some great examples of this in the USA in the early industrial period (more recent ones have more highly politicised accounts written about their practises that I would consider unreliable) such as the Standard Oil Company. Governments can act to improve or make the situation worse but the situation arises regardless.
How does the free market magic wand prevent cartels? An individual cartel might not last that long but they can cause serious harm to consumers in the short-term.
For highly technical goods you can look at the pharmaceutical industry as an example. Companies routinely promote negligibly-more effective treatments as if they were a huge improvement on the previous-best. This is when they are already having to follow a shitload of regulations designed to stop this practise. Could you explain to me how deregulating this industry would curb this practise?
If all you can do is dismiss without explaning the benefits of your point of view then you're conceding that you don't really know anything about the position you're trying to defend.

>A natural monopoly can easily form when a large enough company crowds out the market using anticompetitive tactics.
anticompetitive tactics are part of doing good business. undercutting competitors is a part of business. know who its good for? the consumers. they get good product with low prices.
>There are some great examples of this in the USA in the early industrial period (more recent ones have more highly politicised accounts written about their practises that I would consider unreliable) such as the Standard Oil Company.
standard oil wasn't a monopoly, and it the fact that they were broken up shows how corrupt the government can be.
>How does the free market magic wand prevent cartels?
its not a magic wand, its called economics. you can't start fucking with prices or wages because competition is always there and will take your business at the snap of a finger.
>For highly technical goods you can look at the pharmaceutical industry as an example.
bad example. the pharmaceutical industry is a government owned industry. in the free market, the best product at the lowest price would rise to the top. its that simple.
>If all you can do is dismiss without explaning the benefits of your point of view then you're conceding that you don't really know anything about the position you're trying to defend.
and if you have no basic understanding of definitions, economics, and government, maybe you shouldn't be debating with people online.

you might literally be retarded.
>>721151142
who are you to tell people what they should do with their money, or how much money they should have. fuck you. bernie supporters are legitimately retarded.
Near ghandi.. Nice
>>721153078
you have no idea what you're talking about. building houses and property is going into the economy. buying houses and property is going into the economy. using bank accounts goes into the economy. all of those things gives people jobs.
also, say bye to a big chunk of investments and charitable donations if you keep taxing the rich. moron.
>>721155170
TIL ghandi was a retarded liberal
>>721153078
>keeping money in the economy
i get that but if the money that circulates tends to stick to those that are already rich, it doesnt get you far. wealth is just masked as high income
>>721155200
>all of those things gives people jobs
demand of the entire market creates jobs, not buying and selling houses
>if you keep taxing the rich
doesnt that "go into the economy" and create jobs?
>>721155460
you're so far gone its almost meaningless to reason with you.
>>721155789
>demand of the entire market creates jobs, not buying and selling houses
and a alot of rich people buy, sell, and build houses. they are a significant percentage of the market. therefore you are harming the economy when you fuck with them.
>doesnt that "go into the economy" and create jobs?
no, it gets wasted by the government on shit like welfare, overseas spending, meaningless federal spending, etc. all of that should be done with.

>and build houses
pretty sure those that literally build houses arent that rich. everyone else, the poor and those in the middle are also a "significant percentage", im sure they play a part in the economy
>no, it gets wasted by the government
rich people hoarding money is good for the economy but government spending money does nothing? and you really couldnt think of any better example of spending?
>>721155874
then dont faggot
>>721156843
whats up with this roads bullshit? can someone please explain this?
>>721157166
>pretty sure those that literally build houses arent that rich. everyone else, the poor and those in the middle are also a "significant percentage", im sure they play a part in the economy
the rich have houses built is what i clearly meant.
>rich people hoarding money is good for the economy but government spending money does nothing? and you really couldnt think of any better example of spending?
most rich people don't hoard money, or else they wouldn't be rich.
reinvesting in their own companies, investing in startups, small businesses, and the stock market tremendously helps the economy.
also, who the fuck are you to tell people how much money they should or shouldn't have? such a typical liberal mindset. makes you look like a child.

Libertarians believe that everything should be free market, even something like roads. The idea is that private companies will build and maintain the roads.
If you don't like the service or the price is too high for one set of roads you are free to use another.
ANOTHER SET OF ROADS.
libertarians honestly believe that dozens of side by side sets of roads is the best and perfect economic system
He says he "hates roads" because here on planet earth, one company would build a road first taking up the land and since no one else can build a road there they have a monopoly and will leave the roads in barely working condition (very poor roads) because "fuck you, pay me. What are you gonna do without this shitty road?"
>>721157673
Roads are funded and built by the Government, and if you're in the purple, you generally don't believe in taxes or anything else the Gov intervenes in
So am I a communist?
>>721157808
>the rich have houses built is what i clearly meant
and again, they dont actually build them, you missed my point again faggot. they are not the entire economy
>most rich people don't hoard money, or else they wouldn't be rich
damn
>reinvesting in their own companies, investing in startups, small businesses, and the stock market tremendously helps the economy
they are not giving the money away, investments are capital accumulation and stock market is just capital trade, that doesnt "help the economy"
>also, who the fuck are you to tell people how much money they should or shouldn't have
sounds like you are the one telling poor people how much they should or shouldnt have
>>721158760
nope, just a retard.
