What a great “free speech absolutist” Elon musk is

I don’t think that is true at all. Food is “bad” because as you said the producers cut costs. But you are forgetting that these costs represent real world resources. You have the choice to A. Produce less with a better quality or B produce more but with a worse quality. In order for us to be able to provide for food for everyone food quality is going to suffer even if only a bit

That seems fair tbh

Then how do you decide who gets the better and who gets the worse food? Doesn’t that introduce inequality. And yes good food isn’t a necessity so you can argue that there is no real need for good food but that’s just depressing for people who like food

 

I’ve been dabbling with the idea of communism for quite some time now, but one thing has always prevented me from being fully convinced. How do you allocate the inherently scarce resources. I strongly believe that a local person/company knows better how to allocate resources efficiently than a central government 100s km away. For example food. A central government will never be able to know the area as well as locals. How do you solve this?

I just don’t think that’s true. There are different qualities of tomato’s for example. The value of choice gets even clearer when we look at things like phones or computers

I wonder why they would want that

There definetly is a percentage who doesn't know about the reddit situation. I would guess a large one.
