InternetCitizen2@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Argentina Congress passes pension boost despite Milei oppositionEnglish1·3 days agoIm empathetic to surface level libertarian stuff, but i have to treat them for what they are overall; supporters of oligarchy. Their attacks on environmental protections and civil rights don’t out right say it, but its clear and the logical conclusion for “let the market solve it”
InternetCitizen2@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Argentina Congress passes pension boost despite Milei oppositionEnglish2·3 days agoPart of the issue here is that you are supporting a libertarian platform.

InternetCitizen2@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Former GM Executive: BYD cars are good in terms of design, features, price, quality. If we let BYD into the U.S. market, it could end up destroying american manufacturersEnglish5·4 days agoTrue, even Milton Friedman (barf) said we should be thankful if someone wants to subsides our lives. Besides these market extremists say all government intervention is bound to fail, so they should have nothing to fear letting the BYDs in. The socialist subsidy of BYD will collapse and we don’t want the government distorting our market either.
This isn’t really my personal take, but i like using their own logic to reach a conclusion they will hate.
