  1. Wow. Well, good to see some adherents of the old "Radio Electronics" magazine!

    Nope. Monopolies like Comcast prove you wrong
    Yes, politics load, the burden on your employability index based on your political awareness and activisim (see Henry Ford 1931 for prior examples).
    No, they buy you out whenever they can corner the market and drive your market share to the sell-below-investment-lost price.
    Patents, trademarks and copyrights are enforced by Capitalists. That's why they sue you instead of just sending the FBI after you
    if government were "rolled back" the corporations would buy their own courts, win every dime every time they complained, and have an assassin squad instead of a police force.
    No, it is up to the Corporate entity to cite, prosecute and beggar the defense the more easily to get convictions.

  3. Well, that IS Larry Klayman, the guy who ran with Paula Jones "Utterly without merit" lawsuit to embarrass the President.
    And the moron running with the "nail Hillary for Benghazi because Emails" crap.
    Does anyone expect him to tell the truth?

    1. No you can't if you cannot replace the object and require it to function in your business.
    2. You will only buy with cash and where will you get that when you can't work thanks to your politics load?
    3. No one is going into competition. They either are a smoke screen, a wholly owned subsidiary, or they will be bought. That's how American monopolism works.
    How many Microsofts are there? None
    In contrast
    You can join millions of others and replace the party which is coercing you. Might have to do it several times so you get the SCOTUS you want, but it always works.
    2. Corporations do that now, and Patent, Copyright and Trademark is how
    3. Corporations ALREADY use the mentioned tools to put people in jail for not paying what the Monopoly demands

  5. Anyone go so far back as to have built and programmed an ElF (Cosmac CDP-1801)?
    Or the Zx-80 (Pre-Sinclair)?

    Big Bad Government won't prevent you from going to the school of your choice.
    Or buying a first home
    Or getting a car loan
    or asking for a raise
    But these people will, if there is enough profit in offering a dataset that maximizes someone else's profit at your expense.

  8. Settled, you have no education in any comparative economic theory, if you believe that Smith was wrong in noting that labor is the only value in any object in the marketplace.

    Yes, they have such a right.
    Your charter requires you to serve "In the public interest"
    Your monopoly activities do not so serve
    The other party to the contract has every right to obtain leverage to make you adhere to your charter.

    Wrong. He asked Russia to "please recover the missing emails" which, of course, are not missing, only deleted with regular aged traffic
    And that REQUIRES a hack, so, yes moron, he did ask for Russia to hack the State Department, where those mails existed.

    More importantly, if some dumb bastard sends a top secret file about the murder of known reporters to some other reporter so he can help Americans fight back, they can send the picture, home address and where his kids go to school to the cops.

    The guarantee of downgrade is in the installation instructions for the "auto-upgrade" to windows 8.1 as of March 15 of 2016. Might be missing now.
    Doesn't work, deleting the installation of win-7 as well as the butchered win10 was necessary just to reboot

    When perfectly serviceable open source software,which compiled correctly and ran well under both Windows 7 and 8.1, cannot EVEN BE INSTALLED in Windows 10, I tried to downgrade.
    Remember that "guarantee" of downgradability?
    It was another Lie.

  17. Wait, don't tell me, you think Mr. Bankruptcy-hide-my-tax-returns is interested in anyone who tells the TRUTH?
    BWHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHA!

  18. A free market leads to an optimum where everyone is better off, and no one is worse off, and no one can be made better off without anyone being made worse off.

    Seriously, are you that brain dead?
    A "free market" always deteriorates into interlocking monopolies, trusts, Keiritsu, or family empires.
    Always
    Because CapitalISTS have no desire to maximize income for anyone but themselves
    Competition, product improvement, social change all threaten the Crony part of Crony Capitalism (there is no other kind)

  19. So...starving people work smarter?
    BHWHAHAHAA!

  20. Except I am actually running the Mono version on my two Linux boxes and it works fine, cross-syncs with my Windows machines and keeps on trucking.
