How's that "free market" tasting for ya in a Monopoly...

How's that "free market" tasting for ya in a Monopoly? What do you think will happen when they get unfettered power come December 14th? But hey now - you can always trust your soon to be overlords over the internet. *wink wink*.

>AT&T and Comcast have convinced a federal judge to nullify an ordinance that was designed to bring more broadband competition to Nashville, Tennessee.

>The Nashville Metro Council last year passed a "One Touch Make Ready" rule that gives Google Fiber or other new ISPs faster access to utility poles. The ordinance lets a single company make all of the necessary wire adjustments on utility poles itself, instead of having to wait for incumbent providers like AT&T and Comcast to send work crews to move their own wires.

>AT&T and Comcast sued the metro government in US District Court in Nashville, claiming that federal and local laws preempt the One Touch Make Ready rule. Judge Victoria Roberts agreed with AT&T and Comcast in a ruling issued Tuesday.

>AT&T and Comcast argued that NES has sole authority to regulate the terms of pole attachments for NES-owned poles and that the Metro Nashville Council therefore overstepped its authority.

It's not a free market if there is a monopoly.
Someone please shoot this faggot.

Tastes pretty good, look at all the wonderful things I have and the higher living standards. At this point you'd have to be retarded to advocate socialism

If you look carefully enough, you'll notice the citation marks. With enough effort, your two braincells might just come up with an approximate solution as to the context of what they mean.

NN just proves a majority of the trump shills don't care about what's actually good for them or their country. They would take nigger kike dick up the ass forever as long as it upset somebody on the left for even a second.

It's cuck behavior desu

>How's that "free market" tasting for ya in a Monopoly?

there are three kinds of market conditions:
monopoly
oligopoly
free market

The monopolies exist because of subsidies and social engineering made by baby-boomer regulations and policies

>utilizing governmental power on the market to ensure monopoly
>free market

Pick one.

Nice flag, kekistard faggot

>I hate the MONOPOLY (aka a company controlling most of the economy)
>hmmm how do I fix this
>oh I know I'll let the GOVERNMENT control every aspect of the economy instead
Hang yourself commie

>"citation marks"
>telling other people they have only two braincells

cool it with the implications guys

>government power
>good for me

Literally the antithesis of America.

>I hate the (((MONOPOLY))) (aka a (((company))) controlling most of the (((economy))))
>hmmm how do I fix this
>oh I know I'll let the (((GOVERNMENT))) control every aspect of the (((economy))) instead

ftfy brainlet

The autism is strong with some of you.

can't say I'm disappointed. Let's hear 1 reason why NN should be repealed in a monopoly you shilling kike sucking faggots.

>haha twitter, facebook, google have the right to censor right wingers, it's their company after all
>reeeeeee we need net neutrality for a free open net

Why are lefty faggots like you always trying to tell others what's good for them?

Because it locks everything into place.

>Looks like everything really is neutral guys, enjoy your one ISP in your area. Two ISPs if you're lucky.

The meme flags really should go. Then ignoring shills would be as easy as ignoring all leafs and turks.

How about we save the bullet and throw him off the roof. You can give us lessons.

>uh oh I don't want the government to control this utility that they largely subsidized the infrastructure for, they might not have my best interests in mind
>surly one of these few corporation with a massive regional monopoly that exists solely to create a profit will have my interests in mind

Not even a leftist, people who are against NN are literally shilling for large telecom companies that have been making a fortune for years.
Fuck off, you retards are foaming at the mouth to repeal something you don't even fully understand.

I have an inability to ignore obamaleaf though. It's spawned from the fact I BTFO him to the point his grammar fails in every thread.

Yes, we should trust the government agencies staffed with insiders from the industries the agencies regulate.

>letting the FCC, an agency whose staff is all telecom industry insiders, regulate the internet is "net neutrality"

Go neck yourself

>Let's hear 1 reason why NN should be repealed in a monopoly
Well, the FCC, the agency that you want administering this so-called net neutrality, is staffed with telecom industry insiders who don't want net-neutrality, so that's a pretty major flaw in your little plan.

lmao nigger, crying about others strawmanning your opinions?

You do realize the government pays telecom companies to build the infrastructure right? That's a massive problem for small time ISPs trying to enter the market.

1) This is a illegal argument for you you can not use S&D because it violates your magical Praxeology.

2) S&D are MEME bullshit with little or no relation to reality.
See even if a store runs out of bread the price is not going up.

If the ISP blocking you from accessing this website in 2018 will not wake you up nothing will.

send the bill for the bullet to his family

teabagger will be foaming at the mouth if the government is dismantles food safety standards.

These teabaggers are literal untermenchen and need to be gassed.

>I CAN SEE THE FUTURE

Im not arguing for S&D. Thats just a joke.
>magical Praxeology
>Implies that laws of nature are magical
Also, my pic aside, tell me why I cant use keynesian graphs to prove them wrong?

Its not that difficult.
Or do you not understand how this picture will end?

>keynesian
All economics is garbage and belongs in the trash.
Its like astrology only more retarded.

little do you know the tree branch is actually 2 feet off the ground

see I can make irrelevant aphorisms too.

>Implies that deductive reasoning based on axioms is retarded.
Thanks for the b8 m8.

As expected, not a single one of you shills can answer a simple question because it's incompatible with your bs selling points.

/checkmate faggots

>2) S&D are MEME bullshit with little or no relation to reality.
>See even if a store runs out of bread the price is not going up.
I guess that's why the price of beef spiked over the past few years after droughts caused ranchers to cull their herds, decreasing the longterm supply of beef.
If one store runs out of bread, you're correct, the overall price of bread will likely not immediately go up, but if stores run out of bread systematically across a market unit, then the price of bread will increase.

You didn't address my point that "net neutrality" is completely moot as the agency that you would have administering it is staffed and dominated by industry insiders of the telecoms you want it to regulate.

>can't/didn't read the post he replied to
>doesn't know what subsidizing means

shit bait faggot

Wow is that Donald Trump?

Aren't Jews some 43% of the 1%?
Isn't it more accurate to draw a Jew?

>You didn't address my point that "net neutrality" is completely moot as the agency that you would have administering it is staffed and dominated by industry insiders of the telecoms you want it to regulate.

Why should I answer your question when you didn't answer mine? Go ahead and do that first and I'll answer yours right after.

ya and I'm for not subsidizing telecoms and temporarily getting the government to build a large amount of infrastructure.

Nice projection though brainlet, learn to read.

>cuck pretending normal behavior isn't
gee golly, next you'll be bitching about my heterofetish

time to start stocking up on porn

why isn't your flag still spanish? Catalonia isn't recognized by anyone

>telling me to learn to read and calling me a brainlet
You're so retarded, reread my first post and fucking lurk more kid. You aren't old enough to post here if you have a 3rd grade reading comprehension.

idk m8 just chose a random flag

You have no right to a 'free' internet.
You have no right to equal access to all websites and content.
You have no right to expect that you will get what you pay for if it requires a third party middleman.

Learn your rights, cuck.

Its all literally on the same level like freudianism.
Bullshit talk and every sentence literally collapses if you ask
>how did you derive this?
>Why should anyone believe in this?

Want examples:
I have a question for you, the less you know about economics the better.
If you buy bread do you know if the seller did not drop secretly the bread?
Every child can answer
>no I don't know this, the seller might be cheating me

Now what did the entire discipline of economics say on this subject?
Before 1990s every economist would say:
>the child is wrong, you don't understand economics, bla bla bla supply graphs bla bla
After the 1990s
The economists discovered this revolutionary thing, this super complex theory named Information asymmetry, so complex, so advanced.
Its literally saying
>Yes the child was right

So every economist for decades operated on models that denied childishly basic concepts.
That the discipline should have developed from day one.

It belongs in the trash.
>price of beef spiked
It spiked because the boss of the company did say to raise it.
There is no magic here no law only a decision form a human.

>but if stores run out of bread systematically across a market
1) There is no thing like "teh market"
2) nothing will happen without humans and human planing, its all do to decisions of humans.

Want me to prove it?
The supply of CRT TVs or PS2 did run out globally the price did not rise.
You can literally not explain this in the naive model of S&D.

S&D is flawed barely explains some things while oversimplifying most interactions.

>then the price of bread will increase
It literary will not.
Its all human decisions and bosses who decide this price some items are planed to run out(CRT TVs) and they will not obey S&D because they are planed not to.

The rest is oversimplification or trying to use S&D to bullshit about things like the stock market crashes etc.

The only reason any sort of oligarchy exists in the Telecom market is because of lacklustre infrastructure, because ISPs have been corrupt for so long I'm arguing for temporary socialist policies specificly directed at developing new and existing internet infrastructure in order to open up the playing field for more ISP start-ups.

and yeah you are a fucking brainlet
here's an extra 2 cents shill

Someone doesn't know their history. The articles of confederation were worthless, and we set up a second, stronger central government.

so ill just vote to create those rights nigger.

NN locks everything in place, and prevents the good powerful corporations from protecting us from government over-reach. It's in our interest to have to pay a la carte for our services, though not for our channels.It forces us to consider what it is we consume, and make smarter decisions to consume only real news and not the fake shit the MSM and the internet feeds us.

It will be great once OP goes outside of his moms basement.

you're repeating what they said - Public tax dollars are spent to grow the infrastructure.

It is right and just and good that our public tax dollars are spent to ensure that the system can be privatized to exploit us, the taxpaying public, for the benefit of the few who can afford to be shareholders. There can be no other system, this is a proud, good capitalist nation. To propose any system in which the public retains any control over what the public dollar is spent on, is madness.

>proposes without basis that X is a minority of Y
>why not use X?

Fucking idiot.

Are you a property owning white Christian male? Otherwise, no right to vote, idiot.

Too many layers of sarcasm, I feel like I'm watching Sarcastaball all over again

>You didn't prove something in your post therefore you shouldn't say it
>Hey lets leave it at this please don't be antisemetic
Leftists "logic"

This might be caused by control getting taken away from the FTC and given to the FCC. It would then be basically caused by those "Net Neutrality" rules you promote. That name is a lie and those changes in 2015 were a mistake.

I'm saying take away the subsidies we would be giving them anyway and put it towards something that will pay off for the nation. One of the other issues is the massive legal expenses imparted by Neutrality laws and bureaucratic red tape, proportionally phasing out many of those regulations while also diversifying those investments into new start-ups would basically destroy the established internet oligarchies in a couple years. course though that won't happen when mainstream political discourse pushed as god given fact to the general public still exists. That's why you have a job posting here remember?

Comcast shills btfo

No, the problem is that you're suggesting using a minority portion of a group to represent the entire group. That's just stupid. Take a stats class and some data analysis classes. It's just poor form, man.

Anti-semitism stuff is your strawman.

If you don't like capitalism, go somewhere without it, and don't talk about American internal politics.

Are you suggesting whites are the rest?
Nah, idiot, fuck off.

But I already live in a mixed economic system

He does too

Cause youre pretty dumb m8

A national internet structure would pay off for the nation if it weren't being donated to the corporations. But we play by crony capitalism rules. Ajit Pai is the swamp Trump promised to drain, he's a corporate insider, just like Trump talked about pushing out, but instead keeps nominating.
And redirecting that public funding into other private startups is the same thing, giving public dollars to private shareholders.

Crony capitalism only functions when there's privatized profits and public funding and publicly insured risk. Look who's cleaning up the Keystone pipeline spill? The state and the feds, not Transcanada.

I didn't suggest any such thing. I said using a minority of a group to represent the whole is stupid. It would be the same to call it a Democratic Senate because they have 48 Senators.

Not for long. Trump's going to give a fully unfettered crony capitalism. Soon his party will propose repealing the 13th and 14th amendments. Capitalism will be able to directly contract for the labor capital of the masses in solid and permanent ways that will liberate us all to negotiate for ourselves without gov't interference.

>I suggest Jews make up the majority and if so they should be used
>Enters faggy kike
>HEY MAN YOU NEED TO ADHERE TO MY ARBITRARY RULES 43% IS A MINORITY WHITES ARE THE REST THEREFORE YOU NEED TO DO MUH SAMPLING BIT NOT FOR WHITE ONLY JEWS OK
>NO I DIDNT SAY THEY WERE THE MAJORITY BUT ILL CONTIUE TO IMPLY IT DONT VERIFY ITS JUST THE DEFAULT

>43% of a thing is a majority of it.
Do you even math bro?

Trump is a disaster

He's just hyper capitalism.

>Muh majority
My post as an if and then statement
>If that is Donald Trump
Maybe it isn't

>Jews make up 43% of the 1%

You're statement
>-b-but muh majority! Who's the majority?? It must be white!
>The 1% should be portrayed as white because Jews are not the majority they only make up a fraction of the world population but 43% of the elite
>.

Yes I agree the energy industry is massively corrupt. When I say socialism, I'm talking about a breed of social libertarianism where by recognizing severe inequity in nationally owned and funded industries we can justify light state and public economic corrections in the ways we fund established private companies.
What I'm trying to suggest is a "socialist" public and state level inquiry into aspects of specific industries that will be able to help new companies and market competition to exist.

So, at this point, I'm just calling you out as bait. I've repeatedly tried to explain that 43% isn't a majority. It's math, but hey, I guess this is all really just like, your opinion or something, man.

>Forbes
Heh nothing to see here goys we'll tell you who's the richest
>cept us*

Yeah, it's the industries, not the government. And like taxation, clearly we need EVEN LESS of one of the two to fix the problem. Why, if there weren't pesky regulations on the pipelines, I doubt we'd ever even hear about oil spills and leaks.

>First response is to be a muslim

When you say 1% you're referring forbes top 100 and 1.4 million others below them, dipshit.

The 0.001% has about 1300 people and they're all nobility, private military contractors and bankers.

>that pic of turn of the century (early 1900's) NYC with those insane 10 layered telephone poles

Nice flag btw

You'd be hearing about them and discussing them whenever consensus thinks it's important

I can tell when people are purposefully being contradictory, ignoring arguments and relying on strawmen too much.

>federal judge
>US District Court

blame the goverment

wanting to give the government full control over the internet, the ones who gave use internet monopolies in the first place.
how fucking stupid do you have to be

Are you dense? If it was a free market, nothing would stop AT&T, Cumblast, and Verizon from forming a cartel and fucking everybody. They could buy out literally any competition. They are the only ones with infrastructure in place. Free markets cannot stop monopolies in domains with insanely high barriers to entry.

How are you giving the government full control of the internet? Net Neutrality is simply a declaration that ISPs much treat all internet data in the same way.

The cause of the high barrier to entry is frivolous legal fees by established corporations taking advantage of government regulatory loopholes
