Capitalism

Everyone in the hurricane's zone is requesting help from police and firefighters, so they must be VERY busy. Meanwhile, nobody is stupoid enough to order a pizza, she is probably the only one who called...

Yeah, police is useless in capitalism.

Capitalism

What the fuck were they supposed to do, give it for free?

>>140286986
Yes, or at the very least at a discount.

It's not an issue of capitalism or communism or scarcity, just human decency. The decent thing to do in a good capitalist society would be to share with your fellow man even though the government isn't forcing you to

>>140288349
>implying water is this scarce
>ignoring the fact selling water at the normal price would only take a bit of profit away at most

Hmm. Who could have guessed reality is different than remedial econ 101?

People who do this shit should be shot in the face.

>>140288802

Americans are only defending it because you're using it to say "capitalism is bad" when all that picture shows is that someone was a greedy motherfucker. If you posted the same pic with a Gadsden and said it was a Jew selling the water, they'd all complain about greedy kikes

>>140288798
>human decency

At a price you'd consider "decent" people would just grab as many as they can carry and horde it while most people would have nothing.

>>140288986
by that I mean face a trial and legal death sentence by firing squad for treason.

>>140288896
Did you have to pause your Milton Friedman compilation video to post this?

>>140289053
>Preventing hording is treason in the mind of the Natsoc

No wonder Germany pissed away so much of its resources during the war

this is shitty but theres nothing wrong about it. I don't have to sell my water for cheap lmfao, who could honestly argue this

>>140289032

Here you say hoarding would be a problem

>>140289191

Here you say hoarding is a solution

And in both instances you misspell the word

I said hoarding is a problem in both you illiterate fuck, second one just made the observation Natsoc aren't good at resource management.

And capitalists claim the moral high ground.

>>140289526

Maybe you're talking about horde-ing, like gathering together in a large hostile group

>>140289747
It was autocorrect, stop trying to distract from the point

>>140289490
Or you could sell the water at the same rate so people can get to the water rather than just maintain stock. People aren't out dying of thirst, and there's still a steady supply stream. Price gouging is just opportunism.

>>140289835

But does gathering together in a horde violate the NAP?

>>140290275
If the price were the same, people would still be tempted to buy more than is necessary. For showering, for extra preparation, for house plants, whatever. This is a fact.

If the price were set much higher, people would not buy it for extra things. This is also a fact.

If people don't buy it for extra things, there is more left for people that will buy it for necessity. This is, again, a fact.

So which fact do you disagree with?

>Price gouging is just opportunism
So is entrepreneurship, medical innovation, and technical innovation, yet these are all morally good

>>140290275
If you care so much than donate your own water bottles

>>140290607
They're not running out of water in Texas. There is no need to severely ration water. This is what you're not understanding. Supply is fine, and demand isn't extreme enough to cause massive price hikes. Stores are taking advantage of the situation and using the hurricane as an excuse to screw people over.

>>140290658
No need, the government is passing it out already as if they're humane.

Capitalism is the reason bottled water exists in the first place. Under any other system, especially Communism, everybody would just be forced to die after all the taps were submerged in water, all of the city-water pumping stations were offline, and all of the ground water/wells were polluted with whatever shit was picked up by the flood waters.

>>140282406
It isn't stupid if it works. Also, there is a good chance at free pizza.

NO place does 30 minutes or it's free anymore

>>140292051
>30 minutes or it's free

Where the fuck do you live? It hasn't been "30 minutes or free" since like 1989

>>140291632
Nigga, Texas gets its water from aquifers which means that to begin with there is usually a limited amount of water. After a hurricane, this water is usually less clean than usual. There is a need to ration water, since right now the only safe water has top be brought in on trucks from another city. Also you pointed to an individual asshole that decided to price gouge and have ignored thousands of volunteers that have gone out of their way to help these people.
