    APAG, this might be one of the most ignorant threads you’ve ever started. We have the courts that punish companies for doing bad shit. Look at the recent Monsanto RoundUp lawsuit. In your dream of socialism, there is no oversight. The people owning the factories are the same people that are also the rule maker and the judge aka: The Government. No system is perfect, but at least In the free market capitalism, competition helps even the playing field and some government oversight is needed to keep it that way, like breaking up monopolies.

    The only voices in America advocating breaking up monopolies are on the socialist left.

    Then you must really love Trump. But then he’s also a facist. It must really suck being you. Living a life of contradiction.

    Perfect example of a millennial. Not having any idea what he/she wants, but bitching for the entitled sake of it.
    Trump and the conservatve movement writ large is a hollow vessel for the interests of billionaires and mega-corporations.

    I’m not a millenial. I developed these views in the godawful Reagan years, bud.

    And me. Maybe that insane Ducks fan on here who is a QAnon follower now. But his reasons are different.
