I don't agree that whenever there is a power imbalance, one side will get "fucked over". Indeed, the whole idea of having a market is that people are mostly equal in terms of power (read Hobbes' Leviathan). It's only when power imbalances are so gross that they're obvious that one side is guaranteed to get "fucked over".
- ericwan 18y agoagree that pawer balance != somebody get fucked over for instance America is a benign hegemony. Though they still fuck over people at times, they did it much less than, say, UK, or Rome, etc. but a counter-point - having a market means people with more money fuck over people with no money.
- qqq 18y agoAre you saying that Steve Jobs is fucking me over somehow? By contrast to him, I basically have no money. If so, what exactly is he doing to me? I thought he was helping me a lot.
