Goodthinginism: Join Us

What does she mean by 'build" and who shall build it?

Does she understand (I'm not holding my breath) a free-market grows organically and expands with trade through voluntary action without intervention from a coercive third party?

She does understand this, right?

It's as if people have to be deprogrammed. Notice the immediate assumption is that everything is should be used through a "top-bottom" approach where "top-men" control, in this case, the economy.

There's absolutely ZERO belief in free-people, free-minds, building it from the bottom-up.

Such people are obsolete in the modern economy. The old ways of thinking are dead.

Just like the criticisms against Amazon "killing small book shops" crowd are already passed their prime, so should these people and their ideas of the economy.

It hasn't hit them the Internet has already changed the game. And part of that game is putting power back in the hands of consumers and people.

No more one person or board making the decisions for us as to what we may like. From now on, they will follow what we say or else they will go out of business.

For now, consumer items and entertainment are feeling the hit of this revolution but it will eventually hit places like the grocery industry (where, in my case, Toronto decides what goes on the shelves) and even education as we've seen.

In other words, ironically given all the excesses in regulation. the world is going to decentralize.

Call it "neoliberalism" or whatever you want.

I call it a 'Goodthinginism.
