Libertarians are NOT about rich corporations

Name: Anonymous 2007-06-21 19:38 ID:ziU8y+3K

Libertarians are mostly about small businesses. We want the government out of business affairs so that it's easier for small businesses to flourish.

Lefties always argue that "libertarians only care about the big corporations. without the government restricting them, they will monopolize and rule the world.". In fact it's the opposite. The big corporations love these restrictions because they are making it really hard for small businesses to even get off the ground, let alone compete with them.

Basically, libertarians want to make it easier for people to start their own businesses, and have less people relying on corporations for their salaries. More businesses means more competion, and a less crowded job market which makes it a lot harder companies to overwork and underpay their employees.

Yeah, they make for liquid labor to work with liquid capital.
Capital isn't something permanent anymore, it flows from state to state and geographical region to geographical region with ease.

Libertarians like this because they can keep people in impoverished conditions poor and they can jump ship/transfer money to make more money at a whim.

Case example -- Guatemala doesn't have any labor or environmental restrictions for their foreign businesses that decide to set up work camps or production facilities to lower costs. Labor decides its bad fucking business because they're not being treated humanely or as well as a worker in a developed state would be treated. So they opt to unionize and elect a Sandanista that will force hard regulations on foreign businesses. Foreign businesses take all of their money, all of their capital, leave Guatemala and head to Nicaragua and set up shop there because they don't have any laws and they can charge lower than the Guatemalans.

This trend continues on, it's a global race to the bottom.

What happens when the economy of some state is screwed up from the IMF or World Bank/WTO (Groups Libertarians love) because they forced them into debt from loans like Mexico, it causes the workers to go scurry around finding the newest jobs the foreign producers have set up and this is why Illegal immigrants go to the United States, because they can participate in their laissez fare labor at Wal*Mart or the many large farming corps.

This is why some Libertarians like illegal immigrants, it reaffirms their position of fucking around with labor and capital to where its liquid and doesn't have any recognized state boarders at all. This means that there are no states anymore, there are only guilds and $.
