andmonad@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.ml•Boeing 737 Max 9: United Airlines finds loose bolts during inspections9·1 年前So are they just going to tighten them up real well and call it a day? Also are these the same planes they were urging the FAA to let them flight without further inspection?
andmonad@lemmy.worldto Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•Libertarianism just replaces governments with corporations, and doesn't lead to freedom!2·2 年前These points seem pretty reasonable, wonder what’s wrong with them since you mentioned you’re not actually a libertarian?
You also mentioned businesses that tend to become monopolies, and more generally, there seem to be types of business that don’t really play well in a free market. One non-monopoly example could be antibiotics, since we’re all worse off the more they’re consumed. Another example is natural resources exploitation: competition won’t stop these resources from running out. I know close to nothing about economics but shouldn’t it be pretty straightforward to figure out which businesses or which business aspects are the ones that benefit from free market? It seems mostly a technical question.

I love the article, it involves the highest to the lowest levels and touches on religious hypocrisy, corruption, ass kissing. Basically every defining aspect of the republican way of life plays a role in such a tiny little story.
