    I, a socialist, hate markets. They are simplistic and functional artifacts of the available way to pass information.

      Cool, what is your preferred replacement and does everyone in this thread agree? You have managed to continue criticism but not offer a replacement yet again.

        The ole can have criticism without perfect solutions response. Cool, how useless and pointless of you.

            No, it broadens and deepens understanding.

            Alternatives come from that understanding. Criticism is the fundamental step towards alternatives.

              No, it broadens and deepens understanding

              How exactly do you come to that conclusion?

              Edit: “Thing bad” doesn’t broaden or deepen anything. “Thing has specific shortcomings which aren’t present in specific alternative to thing” is a useful criticism. Criticism without alternatives is just called complaining.

      So, you would never trade with someone else something you have for something they have? You want to be entirely self sufficient?

      If this isn’t true, why do think markets serve no purpose?
