Any political system that requires the 'right' people to be in charge is not a good political system.

[Dank Bakely @dankbakely]

Modern liberals say they support capitalism and oppose socialism, then favor nationalizing the largest sector of the economy. The contradiction doesn't register because there's no coherent framework underneath -- just vibes with post-hoc justifications.

@Lieboisout Hey f*** you!

[Dank Bakely @dankbakely]

@sleepy_devo @JustinHall0711 And maybe this is just me, but I don't think "free market" means zero government involvement. It just means government doesn't block the mechanisms that make markets work. In healthcare it currently does exactly that.

[Dank Bakely @dankbakely]

@sleepy_devo @JustinHall0711 And we don't have to speculate. Every deregulated margin in healthcare produces lower prices and more access. Lasik. Cash-pay primary care. Generics. The pattern is consistent.

[Dank Bakely @dankbakely]

@sleepy_devo @JustinHall0711 Asymmetric information is everywhere. We don't nationalize auto repair -- we get Yelp, warranties, liability, etc. Free markets handle this problem fine.

Government monopoly doesn't close the knowledge gap, it just removes the penalty for getting it wrong.

[Dank Bakely @dankbakely]

@sleepy_devo @JustinHall0711 The knowledge problem is an argument against central planning, not against free markets.

The great thing about free markets is that failures have a self-correction mechanism called competition and consumer choice. Much harder to fix government failures.

[Dank Bakely @dankbakely]

@sleepy_devo @JustinHall0711 Free market healthcare is how you put patients in control of healthcare outcomes.
Government Monopoly is how you put bureaucrats and lobbyists in control of healthcare outcomes.

[Dank Bakely @dankbakely]

@ShadowyZephyr @sleepy_devo @JustinHall0711 I won't accept the beaurocrat monopoly

[Dank Bakely @dankbakely]

@sleepy_devo @JustinHall0711 We could do government monopoly on healthcare, but we could do even better by unleashing free market healthcare.

@SparkyTXLM @LPNational Funny because I hate leftists. You're kinda like one actually. Same behavior

[Dank Bakely @dankbakely]

@SparkyTXLM @LPNational Why would I be bothered by it? It's not my relationship. Seems like gay people are on your mind a lot.

[Dank Bakely @dankbakely]

@cjt_thome But why

[Dank Bakely @dankbakely]

@cjt_thome @JoelWebbon Jesus is gay

[Dank Bakely @dankbakely]

[Dank Bakely @dankbakely]

@SparkyTXLM @LPNational We get it you don't like gays lol

@habib2001 @nickgillespie I guess you should support one of the winning parties that continues to pile up debt for your children and grandchildren to pay off. At least you can call yourself a winner while you're paying more for everything.
