You have freedom of choice, but the real cost must be paid. Same with pollution - there is a cost that has to be paid, that will be paid - just not by you. This doesn't go against capitalism
I think there needs to be some incentive for creating quality conent. For instance if you create an interesting discussion, you maybe get a proportion of all tips made in the thread
So ideally, both coke and pepsi would be so expensive nobody would drink them at all. Or smoke. So the choice aspect is largely irrelevant on such a damaging good
They are implementing sugar taxes in many countries because the community as a whole bears the cost of excess consumptions of sugary drinks. Same deal with cigarettes. Social cost trumps choice
likes could probably turned into some sort of karma system. You could then filter like reddit. Probably also need dislikes at some point for it to work.
Is it possible to have a transaction that will refund itself after being unclaimed for a certain time? Because that could be really useful
e.g. "wage theft" is ok, regular theft gets you arrested. Equity is neither a capitalist nor socialist thing, it's a justice thing
same way that capitalist societies don't enforce their rules I guess. . e.g. a traffic fine hurts the poor more than the rich. They also rarely go to jail. Corps also flout the law with impunity
anyway, I've used up all my bch in this delightful conversation. So I guess capitalism wins this round
I'm really happy with our system, and I think the US would benefit giving it a try. Nobody benefits from being constantly in fear of bankruptcy should you get sick - or being scared to go to hospital
Nope. We live in a somewhat wealthy country that derives a lot of it from resources. They are dug from the ground. If you have private health insurance you don't get much.. just elective is quicker
I pay no insurance, nor does anyone else
Got a knee reconstruction a few years ago. I paid $0 and waited less than a year
Our health care system is socialised, works great and is much cheaper than the US one. So I don't have to imagine.
The average house price here is a million bucks... people earn more sitting on their ass
Hardly a CEO's reward. I wouldn't call the military capitalist, although they benefit from capitalist production. There is room for both. I like my healthcare socialised for instance - it works better
Someone is in charge of the army, are they doing it for money? I'd say they do it more for prestige and because it is something they are good at.
Socialistic production is just capitalist vertical integration taken to it's limit. Works pretty good quite often.
The things he has done post paypal are really admirable. SpaceX would def not exist without him - which is something that could benefit all humanity. I think that gives a lot of people hope
Because coinbase takes 4%++ :(
BCH spent here will eventually go to the miners right? If similar apps earn them money - I wonder if it's in their interest to fund Memo (& similar app) development?

Today is the true birthday of BCH. Now ready for prime time!
