RE: 25 Reasons Steem Will Replace Bitcoin as #1 Cryptocurrency by 2021!
People tend to believe in freedom of the market right up until the point where the market begins shitting all over them, at which point they about face and start crying about it.
I have always been against the market, even when it benefits me.
Me, a "unwoke" person: "Yeah seems reasonable if one follows their principles and we can't always control the things that are out of our control."
Me, a "woke" person: "Well.... uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... muh markets are inherently good and can never be challenged ever if it's truly free! Freedums!"
You’re ostensibly conflating monopolies (due to power vacuums) with free market capitalism.
For example, central banks loaning money to the government (thus forcing regressive taxation) came about because the power vacuum of democracy is totalitarianism.
You’re incorrect to blame the free market for the power vacuum of democracy. The problem with Steem is they haven’t designed the rewards system correctly. I will fix that problem.
There’s nothing wrong with the free market, it’s the design of the system that is fucked.
The alternative to the free market is democracy which is totalitarianism. How many examples (c.f. also) do I need to provide to convince you?
Unless I’ve misunderstood your stance, this is a very grave misunderstanding on your part. I hope you will lose that tendency of chasing your own tail and not realizing it. I hope my elucidation has helped you see the truth.
