I’d call it a presumption, here’s a government that told us N95 masks weren’t effective at preventing infection, so they could save them from the healthcare workers. A huge lie.
This government that sent out two measly covid tests 3 months after the first Omicron surge. They had an entire year and scientists to tell them to ramp up production because the virus would mutate.
Literally everything they’ve done has been pathetic, so yeah I’m not optimistic about them controlling every aspect of the economy.
Almost everyone wants the poor to be better off, but communism has never worked, and when you point that out to people their response is, yeah but it’d work in utopia.
Sure, but in the real word that much power leads to tyranny, and no organization (government) can do everything right. Corporations need to stay in their area of expertise.
Not sure why people want a massive bureaucracy in the middle of every aspect of their lives.

Ok, just keep in mind that the government will make a much worse fashion designer, a much worse cook, and there will be a two year wait for a crappy roach invested place to live.

Well you need food to live, clothes to live, medicine to live, electricity and gas to live. How many things is the government supposed to provide?
Housing gets a bad wrap, but the truth is every industry I mentioned would stop functioning if it weren’t for investors.

Haven’t you heard, being fit is now republican and being overweight is now liberal. There’s no body positivity movement on the right, and the left is has taken personal responsibility out of the equation.
