Innovation can be driven by regulation. So what's your point?
- FreeSpeech 5y agoNo, innovation begets regulation. Deregulation fosters innovation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_economic_reform https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_economic_reform
- wutwutwutwut 5y agoAny source for your statement?
- FreeSpeech 5y agoHow did Deng Xiaoping reform China from economic backwater into the powerhouse we have today? Deregulation, which birthed innovation.
- wutwutwutwut 5y agoSo your sample size is 1? If I show one example of a law which improved innovation, would you consider your claim debunked?
- TX0098812 5y agoLogic.
- thu2111 5y agoPlease cite some examples. BTW the post you're replying to is factually correct. As a government the EU does not innovative in the sense normally understood by the word, e.g. it does not introduce surprising new products, or (directly) create new technologies. It does however regulate.
- MrDresden 5y agoI would say that holds true for most if not all governments around the world. So pointing it out is rather pointless.
- thu2111 5y agoWell yes, but FreeSpeech's comment was grey and flagged when I saw it, even though it's indeed kind of so obvious it's pointless. And it had a reply disagreeing, so it needed to be spelled out.
