Basic Free Market 101
AI was suggested as a way to control our lives. Letting anyone control your life is a loss of freedom.
The best AI is millions of consumers making decisions every day and hour about what they will buy and sell. This is NOT a socialist point of view and that is what is getting promoted in our colleges
One good idea I found recently: Campuses are almost 100% liberal. Without an opposition to the liberal POV, the liberal students overdo it. Likewise, if the RIght was solely in control you could see them overdoing it. This competition is what gives you the balance you are looking for where all ideas are tested.
The operative word is competition. We are supposed to have free speech and deliberative bodies where these things are debated. The best ideas are the ones that are supposed to win when we get to the ballot box. To me, conservative means less STATE control and more INDIVIDUAL control. The marketplace only works when all can bring items/ideas to market. Bad ones do not get bought. The STATE has no such limits to their power. If the STATE controls all the stalls and production the citizen will have no choice. It becomes take it or leave it. Not freedom at all.
Universal Health Care is STATE control. They will make it illegal to have private insurance or private medical providers in order to make it equitable.
The FREE MARKET is what has allowed us to have a more equal and prosperous society, not STATE regulation.
Listen to Uncle Miltie (RIGHT) debate Phil Donahue (LEFT) debate
In 1979 he thought there was too much government. The government has not gotten any smaller since then.
If you have a comment please show me, by timeline, what statements he is making which are not correct.
What is good about this show is the LEFT vs RIGHT ideas being debated. I believe that regulation shackles our progress and freedom. Some of the things they are talking about are pretty ancient (K-Mart / gas shortage / ICC control) so let me know if you need an explanation
