More playing pretend at knowing even basic economics. "competition" is a little false god that you worship because you're afraid of learning something that challenges the rest of your religion. How sad.
Real estate and housing prices balloon wherever finance and speculation are allowed to operate on them. Feel free to go learn about this at your leisure, as it's pretty clear you are actively avoiding learning anything from me.
At what rate are healthcare costs, including insurance, increasing under your oligarch's new regime? What about the median cost of pharmaceuticals per person?
Yeah duh. It's not like these patterns of deflection are subtle and you're just repeating words lazily absorbed from your masters. The idea of applying thought to them is clearly not on the table.
An incoherent, non-grammatical question that actively ignores everything I've told you about socialism. Sounds about right.
In which housing market without limited supply do prices balloon?
Do you expect me to believe that competition doesn't work at all? We started this discussion with reduced wages due to increased competition among workers.
Do you want to introduce socialism to prevent competition entirely?
Imagine thinking I'm going to answer any of your questions while you've ignored all of mine and most of what I've said.
You're on your own now, lib. Let's see if you can be honest with yourself.
You have two rhetorical questions. You must know that competition ceases within an oligarchy and that my point was to argue for competition and not oligarchy.
Thanks for the exchange.
