Sounds like another wish to me. Good to have wishes but the world unfortunately doesn’t run on wishes

Slight correction there, you are not “paying with your tax money” thus expecting something from it. Paying to buy something assumes you willingly committed to the deal and had the option to back out. You did not have such an option so you m

Not most of the dead though, one certainly wouldn’t envy the guy that died an hour ago after days of radiation poisoning or starvation.

Well said. I would add they do the same once they jump out of the car, especially when placing speed traps that cause artificial traffic interruptions and possibly accidents. And when they unnecessarily pull over and harass drivers on the h

Good wish. However why would the government give up this power?

There’s plenty of other search engines eagerly waiting to take googles space on ios, should google decide to block ios users

Governments and most education institutions are not part of the free market. Their income also does not depend on their efficiency or value they create so its not the same comparison.

I mean you have got a point. Forces serving governments are known to kill innocents in cold blood, and commit plenty of genocides, so yeah…

I think they had plenty of FTT, probably just sold their instead.

Read the article. Switzerland is already emitting less than a third per capita than an average American. Probably got stuck with the same percentage reduction to meet some global quotas, and they are increasing efficiency in other countries

Agreed, the cheaper the service the more efficient economy they got.

But it creates jobs?

A king is replaceable too, whats your point. I did not make this claim.

Democracy means people rule. India has rulers afaik.

It can show on any website proxying though cloudflare

Why 8? Doesn’t there need to be a premium for borrowing money? If i can borrow money at zero percent inflation adjusted rate, that is a great deal and still inflationary. I would say 12 percent would be neutral on 10 percent inflation.

I’d suggest to go one step further to advanced income. Government guarantees advanced income for everyone, why stop at basic, are you not generous enough?

The will make sure to nationalize themselves or whatever no worries, just making sure it is still democracy.

by sfe22 4y ago
that is very wrong though. Governments or other monopolies don't enforce free markets. People are free by default and act as such, unless someone forces them otherwise (a big government).

I have been waiting for someone to mention this board stuff. A question for you: If facebook opened up their board for votes by public, imposed mandatory taxes on Americans and had a police to control the population, would we still be livin

That means cloudflare is such a good company for offering cheap and good service, yet somehow we find a way to attack them because their competition is not “as good”. What a shame that this company that is not supporting their competitors?

by sfe22 4y ago
Upvoted. Love that you are not suggesting that another (worse?) monopoly (the government) has to come and save us poor devs. We have options and in reality Google is not a monopoly.

It is easy to pick an example like this to show the “bad” sides. But what is the alternative? If people had to pay inheritance tax on their family home, how many could not afford such a tax bill and would have to get rid of their family hom

I did not make a claim that it is impossible to start another taxi company, rather they have to provide proof of this too in order for their claim to make sense.
85.
by sfe22 4y ago
Did they really drive the taxi business to the ground? Do you have any proof of this? And if so, why is it now impossible to start a taxi business again now that Uber decided to triple their prices?

And what if android charged a penny a year?

by sfe22 4y ago
But that doesn’t mean an equivalent service cannot survive on just a dollar a month.

Have to disagree. Many things are not that clear cut. Decentralization will never hurt. You can also have your own “Facts are facts” entry xD

Are you seriously suggesting that S3 is a monopoly with means to block competition. I mean even when discussing cloud in general, what you are suggesting is a joke.

Drive (and docs/gmail) is also profitable. So is maps and youtube.
