I am an anarchist - ask me anything.

[hog88]

Who promised those things?

The reason why you can't stay on topic is because you don't know how to take on the points that are actually made. If anarchy is so preposterous, then you should be able to easily defeat the arguments that people put forth.

All the arguments for anarchy have been resoundingly defeated.

Thanks to stupid rules that force it to fund it's retirement program at the beginning of a new fiscal year.

Government unions are among the worst ideas ever. Even FDR didn't want them.

The 2006 Congressional mandate ?

 

[hog88]

Their loses are due to the union and congress.

I'll go with that.

Of course, I'm a sore winner.

Well played Sir Hog

So, without government control, Verizon buys 75,000 of them and forbids anyone else from using them. Can you hear me now?

I don't follow. Didn't Verizon just sell tens of billions of dollars worth of cell towers by their own volition?

If people understand how markets work, half of their questions/concerns about anarchy immediately go away.

Skip over the whole "who will build the roads" debate.

Of course the strongest and smartest will rule the weak. That's the way of the world, you cannot stop that. What you can do is abolish a system that has a monopoly of violence in a given territorial area, to somewhat level the playing field, so to speak.

As for your second point, I'm not into comparing cages. No offense.

lulz. And an anarchistic? "government" will accomplish this?

riiiiiiiiiight

If people understood human nature all of their support for anarchy would go away.

[n_huffhines]

Beat me to it, Dink

Don't trust people? Let's put people in positions of power. Makes sense.

 

[hog88]

Fify

Sorry charlie but ya didn't.

There will always be people in power. I myself would like to have some say in who they are.

Human nature will be in play to undermine any system.

 

[82_VOL_83]

i am sorry what else do you call a place where war disappears, freedom is not restricted in any manner, no taxes, no limits on corporate expansion and somehow the average joe isn't oppressed and life improves dramatically for all? the smart alec answer is anarchy, i used paradise because utopia has already been rejected for application in this effort.

Thas funny as hell.

That's the thing, you dont. Hundreds of millions of idiots do.

"Thin the herd."

Solid 2.5 there Gramps.

Hog?

 

[BeecherVol]

There are 89 companies that own a combined 114,000 towers. American tower and crown castle each have around 39,000 towers.

Ive surveyed a many of those in Tn and Ky.

The fact that you have some say in who they are has almost 0 impact on how they behave.

You vote with your dollars when you buy anything, so you do have say over who has power over you. In a contract, each party holds some power. Every time you enter into a contract you are choosing and nobody else chooses for you. It's not subject to mass vote.

 

[hog88]

That's the thing, you dont. Hundreds of millions of idiots do.

"Thin the herd."

I'm good with thinning the herd.

I'd just rather fix what we have. Under anarchy rule will be at the point of a rifle.

 

[hog88]

Solid 2.5 there Gramps.

Hog?

I'll let the old man have that one.

 

[SamRebel35]

There will always be people in power. I myself would like to have some say in who they are.

You have approximately 1/150,000 say in who is in power. Don't kid yourself into thinking that your vote meant anything.

The carriers have figured out its easier to rent tower space from the Crown Castles, American Towers and SBAs of the world. A lot of the towers now have multiple carriers on them. Lot different than it used to be.
