in what way is buying a competitor not inherently anti-competitive?

If someone has a history of anti-competitive behavior, preventing them from buying competitors is perfectly logical

Did you just scoff at the idea of competition improving a market?

or they're simply pumped full of Fox brand fear of anything slightly different and prefer this guys brand of crazy

Okay but they have no incentive to do any of that and instead have monetary incentive to shift right

Do participate in bringing ranked choice voting to your state if you want a shift left in the USA. Competition will force the shift you are looking for

Nope. Wasted questions on animal/plant/mineral when that paradigm isn't accurate enough for a machine I guess.

Seemed to understand alive vs not.

Except the casino can refuse to pay out for any reason at all

The global elite buy the USA politicians. They are for sale internationally

In Bush's case, the family is owned by the Saudis. And the Saudis couldn't have the USA president going after oil.

In the usa we did vote for AL gore, who campaigned pretty much solely on stopping climate change.

When it became clear gore would win, the Supreme Court stopped counting ballots and gave the win to Bush, an oil tycoon who went to war for oil. Later Kavanaugh, who worked the case for Bush, was given a lifetime appointment to the same court for their effective cronyism

So yes, the global elite are the reason here.

'We' can't address climate change because the global elite are dependent on the profits from harming the environment to fill their money banks, and it turns out they have all the power.

I do not need to rewire my brain, I need to build power structure so that I can eat the rich w/ that donut

Britain did brexit and a bunch of other countries elected right wing nut jobs in response to globalization, not just the us

Ah yes, the nuanced thinking of a 5 year old - everything is black and white and everyone who doesn't agree w me 100% is evil
