  • Thats the exact opposite of capitalism. Unprofitable business go bankrupt. Then their possessions and their labor force gets absorbed by other companies.

    This is to align work with reality.

    If politicians would artificially decide what companies to keep someone would have to pay for their mistakes. Markets are much better at this (just read “the use of knowledge in society” by Friedrich von Hayek)

    Just like the suffering of animals is unnecessary to feed the planet, we now have to pay for the costs of climate change, because people want to life in a socialist fantasy.






  • Maybe this is a way to deal with dictatorships. They are so hard to change from within… the top has to be afraid to die when they give up power and violent revolutions from the bottom are often ending in a different but worse dictatorship. I don’t see America colonise Venezuela. Maybe they are coming up with new solutions. Sure, democracies can benefit from dictatorships, cheap resource etc., but they are also kind of annoying. Its not like democracies are really dependent on recourses. They can just decided to do whatever they want. Especially if they are as rich as the Americans.
