Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
I guess my question in this sense is what about corporations that use their economic clout to stifle competition. A classic example is the blocking of hemp production in the United States and its harmful, stagnanting regulation here in Canada. If hemp’s hundreds of uses were recognized we could solve world hunger relatively easy considering the turnover of the crop.
If we had a truly free market I may agree but you can’t say corporations are faultless and guiltless individuals.
P.S. I work three part-time jobs so I can keep myself, my student debt (Loving that “high-demand” degree I was sold) and my family afloat. I am the 99%.
Thanks for the comment, Chris. The next show on OWS looked at the legitimate concern regarding “crony capitalism.” We define what it is and why it is wrong. This might address your point. We don’t have a free market; far from it and we don’t say corporations are faultless and guiltless individuals. Have a listen to show #222.
Regarding the faster than light neutrinos apparently a loose fiber optic cable caused an error in one of the atomic clocks used to measure the speed of the muons.
