Oddbean new post about login | logout @1b150101 Not to mention that under a free market reign, the politician is a commodity too!
@75e7cd9e There is no free market. Especially for people who print money. You cannot buy someone with a money printer. That shouldn't be a hard concept. Do you remember all the "my dad is bigger then yours" arguments on playground? Well, this is the same case. The politicians can go "my bank account is bigger then yours", and they WILL BE CORRECT.
@1b150101 > There is no free market. Especially for people who print money. > You cannot buy someone with a money printer. That shouldn't be a hard concept. Nonsense https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mani_pulite https://www.statista.com/statistics/257368/total-lobbying-expenses-in-the-us-by-sector/ > Do you remember all the "my dad is bigger then yours" arguments on playground? Well, this is the same case. The politicians can go "my bank account is bigger then yours", and they WILL BE CORRECT. You seem to willingly confuse the public admin's budget with the personal account of elected politicians. Your " They can say my bank account is bigger then yours" falls apart just by checking who are the richest people on the planet: all of them are bourgeois entrepreneurs, who casually invest a lot in lobbying. This establishes the rich bourgeois as the ones holding power, while the state is on the downstream side of this relationship.

YES!!!!!!!! YYYYYYEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!!!!!! Politicians cannot give themselves the money directly. So, they GIVE MONEY to the people who give money to them back. EXACTLY AS MY PREVIOUS EXAMPLE. https://gameliberty.club/@LukeAlmighty/111184980252645343
@1b150101 And yet the richest are still the bourgeois. If that's their evilz plan to get rich, they got scammed🤣️
@75e7cd9e Are you seriously saying, that politicians are poor?
@75e7cd9e Ok, I quit for today. You just went full retard.
@1b150101 Reading comprehension moment

@1b150101 Did you just dox yourself in that preview image?
@75e7cd9e Your point right now is, that .0001 percent of richest people with total control of law are scammes, because .000001 percent who also have to bend to their wishes....exist. Your stupidity knows no bounds.

@75e7cd9e If you're willing to ignore the fact, that these rich people are rich, because of government contracts that are predicated on a condition, that the recipient sends the money back, then we cannot talk. Your analysis literally ends with "big number guy bad".
@1b150101 > If you're willing to ignore the fact, that these rich people are rich, because of government contracts They aren't. Capital attracts capital, as having a larger starting capital enables to perform larger investiments and obtain larger returns than those who have less money. The goverment is but another client in this regard, and like all other consumers, it can be compelled to spend money. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital_accumulation > that are predicated on a condition, that the recipient sends the money back You state that, but the fact that that the money flows mostly from the bourgeois to politics, with the bourgeois holding the largest amount of money, says otherwise.
@75e7cd9e Why do you keep separating the two groups? Andrej Babiš Our biggest politician superstar. Property: 75 billion czk Owns companies AGABSY, a.s. and Nadace AGROFERT. And while he was Prime minister, he did send money to his own company. It wasn't his money that allowed him to send nations money to himself, it was his position as politician. Sorry jako. https://media.gameliberty.club/media/media_attachments/files/111/187/911/798/505/692/original/e5523e13e7bf3a95.png
@1b150101 I'm saying that the power flows from capital, and malding about taxes while ignoring the bourgies is laughable
