westerndecline Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 (edited) This is like letting corporations owning and buying freeways and putting ridiculous toll booth fees in heavy traffic areas, then claiming but " we built the original roads" ( even though tax payers played a major role in its development) and " this is a lost opportunity to make money". I'm sorry but corporate power and influence needs to stay the hell away from the internet. The government isn't perfect but we have voting power.

Quote This is like me as a sk in the navy giving a solar company a electricity contract for a year to provide research in cheaper energy. Fast forward 30 years and solar panels are all over every single house. Free energy basically Now x green corporation jerks want the government to let eminent domain take place and let these green corporations regulate how many solar panels u can have, when you can use it, adding fees and regulations to register each panel as in proper safety regs, that u can only use a certain amount of solar energy and the electric utility corporate jerks must supply a certain % of your energy. All the while it was taxpayers who funded the damn research lol. It's a red herring anyway, many private corporations build roads, BUT THEY DONT OWN IT...it was funded PUBLICLY. U know why, because traveling on a road is not feasible in private hands.... For a million different reasons. U REALLY want class determining, politics determining who drives on roads lol The internet was funded by taxpayers through dod contracts to various corporations ( so many that a few corporations claiming ownership is psychotic)... Yes, u need to read a book https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Internet Quote U can't claim to be a libertarian and ignore monopolies, or how government can protect corporations or claim libertarian means all space is private. There are reasons why we have private and public space Don't get me started on health care We don't write checks to the cops before we are getting robbed genius Christ I can't stand RAND Paul/ ayn rand DELUSIONAL thinking and I will guarantee you this they get rid of net neutrality in a couple weeks you're going to see massive riots and possible Revolution that day .... Go ahead and try it. U want one thing to unite the impoverished on the left and right, and create a civil war. U have no idea. Hackers in the deep net would cause a cluster !@#$ just to start with....revolution will start in the streets Edited December 1, 2017 by westerndecline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the same thing happening on the other side, unfortunately, only the smart people will actually fight and kill each other, leaving us even dumber than we were. Unless....the left side of the civil war keeps its current leaders in charge. Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Howard Dean, and the rest of the clown school...would lose the war so quickly and so decisively, that we couldn't even call it a war. More like an "emergency". In fact, that would be part of their surrender terms: that we not call it a war. Think about it: what if I organized about 100 semi truck drivers, and about 1000 infantry types, to cut off the highways/trains to NYC, Boston, Philly and DC? What would/could the leftists do? Pretty sure this siege/war would last about 24 hours before the surrender...conditional on not calling it a war. EDIT: as far as the thread, this has been beaten to death here, and GG has already stated what needs to stated. Next topic.

That's not an attack on your person, it's an observation based on your posting history. Being new here, your first move was to post a series of drunken youtube hot take rants which are light on actual information, but highly charged with emotion; and to post a list of misinformed fiat declarations. You haven't done well so far, and are beginning to look like an idiot. I've got a hot take for you: no one whose opinion is worth considering is at all interested in the drunken youtube rants of someone who comes across as somewhat less than reasonable or intelligent.

What do you feel is the appropriate response to a new comer whose entire posting history consists of a series of self-aggrandizing youtube ranting hot takes which are short on facts and high on "feels", a malinformed Hugo Chavez-esque attack on the merits of private sector innovation and private ownership all while staking claims of a libertarian belief system, and petulant "lalala I can't hear youuuuuuuu" type responses to critiques of the first two articles?
