One making decisions for the many is sub optimal.

Many making individual decisions delivers better results

In F1, each team has the same tools, but it's the competition that drives performance. It's distilled capitalism.

I'm putting together a 1b deal at the moment that'll net me 50m if it comes off. It's in agtech and will have a significant effect on soil quality and reduction in agricultural pollution.

Capitalistm is agnostic. It can be altruistic. It doesn't need politicians getting involved.

You just have to do the labor

Yeah, fuck that. I've had over 30 jobs in 30 years, I just played the game, retired once, now I have the luxury of no debt and passive income, I can go all in on green tech.

Plus, you have to trust that the central government knows best. Looking at things like the famine in China after the 4 pest policy and the govt's recent performance where I live in the UK, I have zero faith, in either system.

Time for something new

Ah ok. Yeah they just did a thing to replicate it recently. Not sure if that means there was a period when that ability was lost though

Nope. You said

Under socialism however, the state funds labor based on needs and/or desires for the output of that labor

How it chooses to fund labour is less efficient than decisions made where the decision needs to be made. Centralising power doesn't work. Not in China, not with the EU, not in Russia, not in America

We need new theory, not 19th century failed ones. We're connect at the speed of light, representative forms of government are now unnecessary.

We need local governance, my favourite is sortition and some form of global digital decision making

Managed economies perform worse than decentralised granulised individual decisions.

Decentralisation > centralisation

Power corrupts.

  1. No, I said make a decent game now. As in, a capital intensive one that uses top designers, artists, coders etc etc. Who is making those games today? The Vietnamese? The Cubans?

  2. One game in 1985 versus the multi multi billion capitalist games industry?

It's how the state decides to fund things that's the problem though. As has been proven over and over again in multiple countries.

It's great theory, but it's just theory.

Anecdotes are just that though.

Ok, I think I get where you are coming from, but your conclusion still doesn't argue the original point imo.

The GDPR law on the UK statute books is the exact same law as the EU one, it has not been amended. It's just that the ECJ is no longer the highest court. The UK supreme court is again supreme following brexit.

Please provide an example of where the EU has taken action successfully against a conpany that has no base in the EU though. I've not seen anything like that bef

The original point was that the UK was somehow in a worse position because of brexit, this is not true. The UK is no weaker legally because of exiting the EU. The law is identical.
