Tired of RP Supporters' Economic BS

BTW, Kade, your signature is really cute. I didn't even know you're that immature.

Look, you can look to my earlier posts and see that I stopped insulting you, and tried to be respectful, and you kept pushing. It may be immature, but it seems to work.

Can't argue with experience... or is that something you want to chime in on?

Why do you think I have Rockandroll all riled up? If he just apologized for being an autistic anus originally, I would gladly remove the signature.
 
What began as an informative and illuminating thread clarifying the nuances as well as the big picture of Austrian economics has now become a clusterfuck.

That is all.
 
Because I believe your definition of a monopoly is insufficient. I believe that an enterprise can be monopolistic if it controls a sufficient amount of control over prices, goods, services, or information.

No. Just because that's what YOU think a monopoly is doesn't mean it's so. Go read the official definitions I've posted. If Apple makes 99.9 percent of all the computers in the world and sells that many and I make .1 of them, apple still isn't even considered a monopoly.

Would you consider that a monopoly? If so, then you'd be wrong. And, that's not by my standards. That's according to an official definition.

You're retarded:

Can you provide one example of a single business, corporation, etc. being able to corner the market and unfairly dictating prices in a free market?

1. If you read from page one as opposed to the last page of the thread you'd see kaju is trying to have a real debate. 2. It's intelligent. 3. If you definite intelligence by insults and opinions without evidence to support them, then yes. Kade is intelligent.

Can you quote where I said Kaju wasn't trying to have a real debate?

As to your 3. Kade may have started it but it takes a better man not to follow. I have seen some very childish remarks coming from Kaju.

Oh, and finally. What I believe is more inlined with Kaju than Kade. I am trying to learn more about the ABCT and the free-market as propsed by the Austrians.

Kade belives that there are a few things that shouldn't be left up to the market. I always listen to his reasons and thoughts. He doesn't always yell at people. :D

He can believe what he wants. I have a problem with him posting his beliefs as fact without backing them up with evidence.

Kaju, a few posts before:

Can you provide one example of a single business, corporation, etc. being able to corner the market and unfairly dictating prices in a free market?

I'm asking you to provide just one pathetic little example of a company that was not given an unfair advantage by government being able to control the market.
 
sorry Kade, but this is fast becoming an axiom on these forums. :p

It also seems to be the norm for you to use the signature feature in a crass manner when someone proves capable of debating you. If anything, please eliminate that nonsense now.

My retardation as a self-evident truth? That makes little sense.

Not only can he not provide an example, his use of monopolistic doesn't even make sense. I've defined a monopoly. Even if the conditions kade described were to be in place, that would not make an enterprise monopolistic. He can believe it if he wants, but it's just flat out wrong according to the definition. Wrong use of the word, and a clear lack of understand of it.

There are no examples of a free market krazy kaju. It would be impossible for me to provide an example of a monopoly existing in a non-existent economy.
 
So your claim falls Kade. You can't provide one theoretical nor one real life example of a business being able to corner a market without unfair advantage.

Why are you even trying to debate?

I'm sorry rockandrollsouls, can you please reduce your level of fail?

Kade, are you going to respond to the definitions of monopoly along with my example?

What about your wrong use of the term "monopolistic?" A company cannot be considered a monopoly unless it has 100% of the market share.
 
Kaju, I believe Kade way back before the fighting if you felt there should be competition for economic models? Do you believe this?

He also asked what models would you suggest?

(I was hoping for these answers, unless I missed them)
