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.

>>59
It's not protectionism it is a response to protectionism by other countries. A libertarian government would offer other countries a free-trade agreement, if they refuse to lift tariffs we will maintain our tariffs on that country to compensate the tax we pay to their government. We would perpetually offer and discuss the free-trade agreement with them to make it clear it's their choice not to engage in free trade.

>>57s argument was flawed. For a start >>57 said itself that the reason businesses would want to set up there was because of the low cost of labour, thus if labour was that cheap to begin with they cannot be blamed for the poor conditions. Also one of the major factors to end the civil war was to restore the economy and attract investment.
