- forlorn_mammoth 5mo agoat least they aren't inefficient, like governments are. Because as you can clearly see market forces always lead to optimal resource allocations.

- hungryhobbit 5mo agoPretty sure forlorn_mammoth had an implied /s in their post.

- Danox 5mo agoSome governments are inefficient…
