"Net neutrality’s opponents have long argued that the rules will put off investors. " yeah no shit. Here is the part where people who are not an ISP give 2 shits. Supply side are assholes.
Investors are shit. If your company can’t make it on the profit from the product or service, it shouldn’t exist.
At the same time, any company large enough to capture more than half the marketshare of any single segment should be broken up into at least 3 companies.
And private equity companies buying up small companies and then trading them like playing cards should be banned as well.
I’m so tired of these lazy, fat, investor class chuckle fucks getting handouts from the government.
Well, once again Mr TexasDrunk, I find we agree. I just have to couch my words, as we need to “turn down the temperature” or some bullfuck.
I’m sorry do you have any understanding of how the economy works at scale?
A fundamental part of it is that money has to move. Lots of money that sits is really, really bad.
That’s where investment comes in. Big projects come in (beit R&D, or production, or expansion) and they cost more to start than there is in cash reserves. You could consider a loan an investment as well. And that would be the same, making the bankers the investors (this also applies to mortgages and any other consumer loan).
They must, otherwise companies taking on multi-million dollar projects would have to have more multi-millions sitting dormant in cash reserves. And at the scale of global economies, that is a bad thing.
Pour it into your products and services. Not buying your competition. Research, develop, PAY YOUR FUCKING EMPLOYEES.
You know what moves money around the economy better than handing one asshole 10 million from the wallet of another asshole? Giving your employees enough money to live on, enough money so that they are secure and happy to work, have kids, have a life. Regular people spend their money.
Private equity is just dragons hoarding wealth in the form of businesses rather than literal coin.
Boot lick harder.
In this damn country, slightly slowing down the growth of rich people’s investments is a more effective argument against something than literally killing your customers. If gutting net neutrality takes money out of normal people’s pockets and makes things a bit more difficult for them, then everything is working as intended.
The US has no term limit for supreme judges. They are literally mini dictators.
Republicans strike again
Well fuck whatever court that is
They’re all wacky cult rituals run by weirdos in robes.
You know, if the rules for government handouts were more open, another company could gain ground. Just pointing out something congress controls.
