Hear me out and think past the Deep State’s indoctrination. Q has mentioned several times that changes would be made to prevent all this from ever happening again. He mentioned independent auditors. How well did the independent “auditors”/watchers work in preventing/exposing the election counting? In order to prevent evildoers from having monopoly power over us, we need to remove their primary weapon, which is government, and replace it with a true Free Market. Liberty and Freedom.
Government is monopoly power, with unlimited funding via theft/enslavement, that forces socialized monopoly services on us. It’s a lot easier for the evildoers to gain control of a singular monopoly power wield it against us than to gain control of dozens or hundreds of privatized companies providing those same services in a Free Market.
Who here supports socialism, even for courts, security, roads, etc? How’s the horrible quality and lack of accountability in those devices working out for us? What about the Constitution, which either enabled the evildoers to gain monopoly power over us, or was too weak to prevent it?
All services can alternatively be provided by multiple competing private companies in a free market. Competition generates better quality, better prices, more innovation, and accountability.
We’ve proven we can’t keep the Republic. The falsely perceived authority of Government is derived from “the consent of the governed”, but at any given time it is obvious that the majority of us don’t fully consent to it. We need a true free society with a real free market, where everyone votes with their dollars and is their own ruler, and is forced to be responsible individuals if they don’t want to have to live on charity for life.
I pressed Save too soon...
The free market is the key to population programming. A government is perceived as the supreme authority and will always have the most influence in population programming, and government will never give the people the education they need to free themselves. It should be abundantly clear that trying to vote for the right politicians hasn’t worked at all despite everyone’s best efforts for over 100 years. And we know how fast people forget even recent history.
I reckon it'd be way easier to buy off 10-50% of the population; a lot cheaper than buying out companies.
What makes you think there would be any (enforceable) laws without government? "legally oppose/compete with it"? What happens when that 10-50% says "F your legal challenges, we're doing this whether you like it or not" and just takes control via force? Before you go and say "well the remaining percent can just work together and fight them off" you should realize that any physical warfare relies on two primary things: 1.) communication/coordination, 2.) training. A standing pre-existing federated army will have communication, coordination, and training together. A bunch of independent folk that decide to ban together to fight that will have none of that, and that's assuming they all were to decide to act together or at the same time. They would get curbstomped into submission, simple.
Let me ask you a question about your road example. How many different companies can feasibly have road networks that connect enough of the country? With such a natural limit on competition, what's to stop said road companies from monopolizing or refusing service to those against them, just like we're seeing in Big Tech right now?
"This won't go away unless government goes away." is incorrect. This won't go away until free will goes away, period. I, for one, do not particularly want to lose free will. The price of liberty is eternal vigilance; I for one am willing to pay that price.
You want proof of that? Look at the course of human history. When has a society not developed some kind of government (proportional in scale to their society)? Short and long answer, none. Any that may have get conquered off faster than you can blink. History has tested anarcho government, and deemed it unsustainable.
"Monopolies in a free market won’t be monopolies for long if they don’t provide a good enough service. If they over-charge, there will be new startups. That’s inevitable." This is false. Before going on to make an argument to prove this you may just not listen to, let me take the Socratic approach:
What makes a monopoly powerful?
You’re in a circular argument and are favoring the worst option. Option 1: Government - inherently violates our rights; monopoly power wielded by highest bidder Option 2: Free Market - MIGHT, one day, eventually turn into government
“We need to choose Option 1!” Doesn’t make any sense.
Do you seriously think every current and former military service member in this country could be bought off enough to turn against their own people?
Laws will be enforced in a free market because the majority of people want protection from rape, murder, theft, various other property rights violations. What will be missing is the 99% of current politician laws that violate our rights and rig things in favor of their highest bidders.
There was a region of Ireland that was free and lasted for 400 years. Far longer than most governments.
Various road owners will have a common interest in connecting their roads so they will be useful. Many private businesses that rely on those roads will have an interest too so customers can reach their business. Amazing that somehow businesses are able to have parking lots even though the government didn’t build them for them. Sometimes multiple business owners, even competitors, share connected parking lots.
What makes a monopoly powerful is the protection government provides to prevent the monopoly from having competition. In a free market, a monopoly service can only sustain itself as a monopoly by maintaining the continued support of its customers. Without that, it would go the way of MySpace. If only MySpace would have hired an army and bought the whole internet and forced everyone to still only use MySpace though...
