EdwardBaiamonte, you support the government regulations, (i.e. government regulatory systems) which improved both the European Union’s and the United States economies, and you support the Republican Party which is generally opposed to governments’ regulatory systems? Isn’t that contradictory?So far as i know you are a worthless communist who supports 1001 interventions in the Republican free market all moving toward communism and more millions dead. I support what Europe has done to the extent it has inadvertently promoted Republican capitalism and resulted in more freedom and capitalism than we have in America.EdwardBaiamonte, the Brussel’s and the California effects refers to the economic pressures due to one government’s regulations required superior standards for a product, effectively inducing other governments to follow the leader; Thus in the USA, California’s higher standards for some products effectively became the national standard.This is true in Europe for example because, despite having higher taxes, they have more capitalism in many areas than we do. Remember it was Europe that found Microsoft to be a monopoly first. An average Parisian will choose between 4 cell providers and pay about half what we do in America. You can read the "Brussels Affect" and many others if you want to learn about European capitalism.Fncceo, no, they provide every individual of their nation’s Wi-Fi, medical insurance, railroads and other public transportation users at lesser expense and in a manner superior to that of the United States.
I’m pleased and surprised that you're amiable to some government regulations. I’m accustomed to responding to many other posters within many groups of internet groups, who are generally opposed to any or most governments’ regulations, (i.e. “pure” libertarians). I (apparently mistakenly) believed you to be such a pure libertarian. You and I certainly have had our differences. Your post #14, seems contrary to your post #15?...
