The existing homeowners are not interested in increasing supply, hence all the regulations to make it as hard as possible to build more houses

Why is that, could you elabotate?

The premise is not "always"... if anything, the premise is rathar that in this case it produces better outcome for the costomers?

Also, the mechanism is explicitly outlined (of cause very briefly) in the comment, so no need to resolve to premises. If you do have something concrete to counteract and add for the discussion, that would be awesome!

Can you please share the sources for Ilyas views?

I like my lifestyle around car, and driving. I lived in Europe without car and woth car in US. Much better in US. And I suspect the world can support 1000× cars easily.

> Or dare I say it: we disband the notion of private ownership of the means of production and give that ownership back to the people.

Lets be explicit about this lunutism kills millions of people, directly and indirectly, collapses on itself and then hopeful is salvaged by hardcore capitalism.

Better than no work

> "Reality is 100% of the time, different from our imagination" A bit of a hyperbole: 100%? So never ever we can predict reality? I think, if we focus on the core details, we are better than always wrong, perhaps even much better.

From my experience, free Healthcare has extremely long wait lines, and bad quality of service, unless it is an urgent matter. I would guess if the mental illness is not severe, not an urget matter, it will not be treated well.

What is the scum part here?

The point was to build a cartel, keep artificially high prices for a very poor quality service, and it worked, all over the world, but for cartels, not the consumers! Until UBER delivered the whole world from this universal established cartel-taxi-model for the benefit of all.

How does UBER compare to taxi pricewise?

When I was in college and didnt have a car, UBER is one of these things that have improved my quality of live like no other thing. If not for UBER, I would have a miserable existence. Long live UBER.

> It is a valid solution to the f=ma equation. It is not a valid trajectory in Newtonian physics because it violates other principles. It is a “gotcha” only if you think that Newton’s second law is the entirety of classical mechanics

Could you please elaborate which Newtonian principles it does violate?

Sorry, I just don't understand the complaint, if you don't like audiable, then don't do business with them? You can sell your book yourself directly.

The market already takes this possibility into account

> it has been shown ...

Can you please share your sources?

I also agree with you.

For me and my friends free market is not a religion, it is thoroughly thought out concept that proved it self over and over again.

I this your count misrepresent the reality.

In my mind, people who oppose free market capitalism usually don't understand how it works.

The good thing is that reality is what settles the debate. What happens is that people vote with their feet --- and millions of ambisious people from countries where there is less free market economy are desperately trying to come to US to realize their full potential, but not the other way around.

Volanturelly, in my mind, means that you can decide how to employ your resources as you wish (e.g., time education, capital, skills). If your resources allow you only ever a few options, like sorting garbage, you are still doing it voluntarily. If you have many resources (not necessarily material, e.g., education) this will give you more options.

Your abilities are teaded agains all other ppl's abilities in a free market.

There are complications to this view, but the example with sorting garbage, in my mind, is actually an easy case. Yes it is definitely voluntary.

They created the connections, without their facilitation this would probably never exists in the first place.

I personally don't see these failing that you mention, far from it. Whatever you believe, this kind of propoganda claims stating your opinion as a fact, is very transparent, and just discredits your argument.

From Israel side this is usually an attempt at a pinpointed strike on terrorist infra. Not clear which part is a collective retaliation

Yeah, I would narrow this down Germans complaining for allies purposefully bombing a civilian infra. But present day standars this is a war crime.

The problem woth this is that Palestinians kicked Israelis as well very early on many ears before Israel was created. Here is an example https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1929_Hebron_massacre

The attacks from Gaza towards Israel are targeted at civilian infra.

Israel and Egypt. Gaza has border with both.

For tech, I think this is a win-win situation. Tech workers have the options to stay and work in their home country. It is not like tech workers do not have a choice they prefer it this alternative, even given the uncertainty or not having a permanent residency.

Built on exploitation? In my opinion built on utility supplied to customers.
