The title says it all. There was a fracking accident in Pennsylvania that resulted in an intense fire that lasted five days, posed a serious risk to rescue workers, shook the ground of Bobtown and likely killed one of their own workers. How do they make it right? Send the people of the town coupons for a free pizza.

Remind me again why we trust these people to regulate themselves?

Just more proof that free communism is the only rational political philosophy.

No "ism" works. No one has all the answers.

Yep.

I'm not totally against capitalism, but I'm against Laissez-Faire Captalism. Someone needs to be able to come in and control and regulate those company when they do shitty things.

But, beyond that, I think the most important thing is to be adult enough to understand that different situations need different solutions and change the system as the situation requires.

Anarchist communism already provides a solution to all these problems. Combine that with eugenics & you have the perfect catch-all solution.

Sure. Catch all. Except that you have never pointed out a single attempt at either anarcho-anything that's been stable and safe and lasted more than 50 years and you have also never given a single example of attempted eugenics that has ever been anything other than monsterous. So, you know, once you get past little problems like that, you got a solid plan.

By combining them I get past the problems inherent in both of them.

Sure you do. Such as the human tendency for people who desire power to commit atrocities to achieve it.

Mmm, pizza. What are people so angry about? They just got a free pizza

What, was it to a shitty pizza place? 0__o
