My point is that greed always exists with or without capitalism. Many attempts over the last 150 years have been made under the assumption that "capitalism" is the problem and they all failed because "greed" is the probl

Reddit and Wikipedia both get complaints for the abuse of power by power users or mods. They both work (well up to now for Reddit) because there's an absolute admin group bound through a corporate governance structure to step in when n

Nothing says the only way to have a car drive as safely as an optimal human requires a human analogue. You're making a massive strong claim without anything to back it up. For example, humans can drive cars in video games fairly well f

I do not rely on just my eyes when driving and if I did I'd have been in at least one accident. I also rely on hearing and feel (vibrations, difficulty steering, car movement, etc.). Studies support this by indicating those who have he

So companies can lie about the values they hold when it benefits when but we cannot call them out for lying because reasons? Your freedom to do something does not stop my freedom of calling you an a-hole for doing so.
