Incredible that US public service does the bidding of corporate America.

It's like freedom.equals(we don't like regulation at all)

You keep spewing apologist nonsense by refusing to acknowledge that the US is by far the most imperialist entity at the moment.

In comparison, China is the least.

> China didn't just form with its current borders. It expanded and contracted and expanded some more for millennia.

As did everyone else?

I don't see China having military bases all over the world and proping up "freedom fighters"

Why isn't Firefox funded from the state as a utility and is instead left to rot in the hands of the "free" market?

If ff needs to turn a profit to survive how can it not follow the directives of the market?

> Why is spain suffering from this?

A lot of good answers to which I'd like to contribute a personal understanding as someone from the euro south:

These countries were decimated by free trade. A significant amount of the populace is not interested in having a "career" and follow a race to the bottom by competing 24/7. I would say culturally they are incompatible the the free marketeering that has been going on in the past decades.

We need to get protectionism back up and running. Work is a necessary evil that needs to take as little of our life as possible.
