Big Business & Big Government vs. the People

Free market economics pretends it is based on nothing but a skip towards pareto efficiency. The reality is very different. However, I appreciate that reality is a problem for you when referring to economic analysis.

 

Imagine the government in control of a resource like water. What could go wrong?

It sounds like what you're saying is that in a free market there would be a market for services such as inspectors and regulators. I agree that these services could be provided on the market.

 

Dear, you said there would be a lack of product information in a free market that presumably a lib Nazi govt could provide when in the real world Consumer Reports sells any amount of product info people will buy. Do you understand now

 

Notice how you must change subject? You would be held in contempt of court. Friedman pretended nothing merely said free market saved 700 million that libcommieism would have killed

 

Given Friedman and Pinochet playing kiss chase, probably not a good idea to go there!

 

Total libcommie lie. Friedman gave Pinochet identical advice he gave every human namely free market works. If libcommie has other evidence I will him $10000. Bet?

 

mega corporations are basically mini governments

 

Wrong of course govts don’t serve and please people and they don’t have competition to insure their continued improvement in service

 

sure they do, the left and right compete with each other all the time
mega corporations often do not have competition either in any real sense of the word

 

Name one without competition if you dare

 

I said govts don’t have competition not that Democrats dont.

 

Given the destructiveness of neo-liberalism (which is recognised even by the conservative groups that previously spawned cobblers like the Washington Consensus), you're not going to be able to advance beyond hero worship. Real world economics is not available to you.

 

If it's not spoon-fed to you as an entitled subject of your glorious government, then you "lack access."

 

Notice the way you had to change subject one again because you could not back up your lie about Friedman. Is lying easy once you get used to it ?

 

Your hero worship blinds. I haven't changed the subject. Friedman was a crucial figure in the imposition of neo-liberalism. That coerces an inefficient and inequitable outcome. Friedman's dalliance with dictator demonstrates the 'fluid' nature of the ideology involved

 

You lie openly Friedman was 100% free market and less fluid about it than anyone on earth. I’ll pay the libcommie $10000. Bet or runaway once again???

 

There is nothing free market about neoliberalism. It is about coercing greater inequalities. Did Friedman appreciate that? Probably not. His output wasn't particularly high powered was it? A vertical Phillips Curve and adaptive expectations? Woooo! Of course monetarism was particularly destructive. He should have at least apologised for that!

 

Subject is did free market save millions that were slated to be killed by libvommieism, not whether there is something free market about neoliberalism. You’ll never learn a thing if you can’t focus on one subject at a time.

 

That isn't the subject as there is no such thing as libcommunism. Note that, when the discussion refers to real issues such as neoliberalism, you blubber.

Difficult to measure bias when the target continuously makes cretinous error

 

Do you acknowledge that the corporate media is biased?

 

Of course its biased. That bias will be towards the elite. However, you've chosen an example where calculating bias is particularly difficult. Trump's crass errors will ensure focus on negative reporting, by definition.
