 "You mean like how the FDA who is bought and paid for big food regulates food?"
"You mean like how restaurants are able to serve food fried in rancid oils BC the government encouraged that after they inflated food prices so much people couldn't afford real oils? "

how do you not hear yourself? ah you're so fucking American. 
Your "capitalism" loves monopoly. American "off hands" culture is so dumbfounding to watch from a distance.

You know, in other parts of the world, Government actually serves the well being of it's people and it's country. 

Travel more, and not to Canada or Europe lol.  
 Haha, travel more just not to the countries that don't prove my point. 

They just need to regulate harder don't they. 

Gosh the government would regulate private industry so well if that damn private industry just didnt get in the way of that.  
 out of 195 countries, you only have 1 that proves your point and it's America. Even Canada is not that backwards albeit follows closely. Europe actually has food standards and regulations.. so that was my bad. I should have specifically highlighted the UK - but Europe too. 

Live in a bubble chief, BRICS exists for a reason.  
 Bro the whole thread was started by a guy complaining about how the Spanish government doesn't care about him and you came in bitching about he's complaining. Canada is on the verge of having their prime minister ousted by his own party for corruption. He froze the bank accounts of his own citizens for protesting him ruining their lives. Europe is helping the US fund a war that is slaughtering thousands and thousands of people and the EU and NATO have threatening to enter that war which could cause a nuclear Holocaust and end life on the planet as we know it. 

But hey, according to you they have regulating food down really well BC they care so much about their people. Just don't complain if they can't help their people during a flood right? BC then they sick their statist shills on you. You're full of shit. 

Statists are amazing. They just refuse to see how they are enslaved.  
 Anarchists want to see the world burn at the expense of others. People on here want to see the world burn, government failing and federal reserves destroyed. 

Do you actually understand what that means? How many billions would die as a result?

I'll say it again, if you want to live like that just go to Sudan or the Congo and live that way. There's government there, no intervention and completely selling out to corporations. Reminds you of someone?
Well, look at the native populations of these countries, constantly displaced by roaming factions of mercenaries, bandits, posses and other things.

The wild west is great in theory, but in reality you'd die before the age of 25 and that's pretty backwards imo. 
 
 Oh but I thought you said out of 195 countries the US is the only one that proves my point. You have shown you know how many countries there are in the world but you just don't know shit about them. 195 countries includes North Korea. But no no no they don't have corruption in government. Its only the US BC we are a bunch of silly capitalists that the rest of the world laughs at. Its such a ridiculous, illogical argument honestly. 

At this point you're reduced to making blanket statements about anarchists of which you have already shown you know nothing about. 

I'll say this again, your arguments about anarchists are old and tired. I heard them in college from both left and right alike. Back then it was "why don't you move to Somalia" and now you're using the Congo. Even though it has a government, of course that you claim has sold out to corporations. And you're right. Except you miss that those corporations have to buy off the government in order to do what they are doing. You even said it yourself. They sold out. So what the fuck use is the government then? Jfc the mental jumping jacks you have to do are amazing. 

So before, only 1 country proved my point. Now its a few of them. Just don't address the corruption in all the European countries I just mentioned. Or talk about the guy in Spain who is saying the same thing about his country. Or maybe the fact that Bill Gates is in hot water in the Netherlands for possibly lying about vaccines and causing injuries. The government definitely didn't allow him to do that in such a non corrupted country though did they? Its not like the response to covid was the same nearly throughout the whole world. Lock down and force people to get a vaccine that made big pharma billions. No definitely not. Its only 1 country that is corrupted. Even though Australia basically went full on authoritarian. 

These arguments are just outside the realm of logic. And its sad to me that people have such stockholm syndrome that they keep defending their subjugators.  
 Anarchist want to be left alone. I do not want to pay a tax on a property I bought and paid with taxed money. I do not want help. I do not want insurance. I do not want anything from an inefficient and corrupted government that is unable to live without creating huge debts. 
I want for the government and it's people the same rules that are valid for the citizens. If they are fucking morons that wasted money and have a loss, go bankrupt ,.lose your assets, lose power and be prevented to handle any economic structure for the rest of your life. If the government was a private entity they would all be in jail 
 same dudes will be crying for government intervention when shit hit the proverbial fan

 Capitalism creates monopolies only when the government create regulations that forbid regular people from competing. Take away restrictions and regulation and monopolies will disappear. That will be true capitalism 
 that makes zero sense, because you know, unregulated industries tend to bring out the best in society... 
 What does it even mean. Capitalism regulation comes from customer approval, not government regulation and bias. Nothing is unregolated. The point is government regulate stuff and do not pay the price for errors. Customers do and private companies too. I agree with government power when they stop being immune to prosecution and start living inside the society, paying the price for what they did. A parliament of assholes that mandate an experimental jab but are excluded from the mandate, that have the IRS grow to a KGB level but are exempt from being checked themselves. These elites can go die today.
