Would society be better if it were openly run by a consortium of large corporations?
>>524182993No.
>>524182993>yesBecause then anti-kikery corporations wouldn’t be illegal and would inevitably win out in a free market
>>524182993It would be like extreme Japan. Once you have a job, there is no changing, you work till you die
>>524182993isn't the US already run like this?
>>524183714Clan system, I want to work for Shimazu as a Katana Hero
>>524182993If?
>>524182993There's an argument to be made that what allows a lot of corruption to flourish is the disconnect between where power is formally held versus where it's actually held, and making the two one-to-one would better enable them to be held accountable
>>524182993I honestly can't believe there are people stupid and gullible enough to believe such a thing. It's probably on par with "real communism just hasn't been tried hard enough". I'm hoping anons with brains developed enough to access the internet would see that the bigger and more powerful a corporation becomes, the more careless, ruthless and soulless it becomes. Do people really believe they'll magically start looking out for their consumers/slaves once they consolidate enough power?
You mean like the USA?
"Would society be better if it were openly run by a consortium of large corporations?"We already have this. It's called neoliberal democracy with ZOG characteristics
>>524182993No difference.
>>524186184jewry itself acts like a corporation
>>524183714I heard this about Japan, that you cannot change jobs every few years.Can I get a qrd?
>>524186411jobs are like family there (but for real, not the Subway/Walmart family), if you change your family every few years you would seem unreliable
>>524182993still the best city map to date
>>524182993Yes and no.You could argue the nation state is just a form of large corporation. People are freaked out by the idea because it feels alien but so did the idea of a nation 500 years ago and before that the idea of being tied to a landed lord Different eras have different organizational structures because of history, culture, circumstances and technology.Modern democratic nation states have grown so unfit for the modern world they have become completely incompetent at best and outright tyrannical at word I think at this stage some sort of switch to corporate rule or corporate neo-feudalism would see an improvement in the lives of most people That doesn’t mean it won’t have problems, it will
>>524187195by definition, consortiums of corporations are driven solely by profit. Corporate profit very often runs contrary to consumer quality of life. For example, imagine a corporation that gets a large portion of its profit from gambling. Happy people don't gamble meager life savings when they're happy, you need unhappy people to grow and keep growing from gambling profits. The only thing trying to prevent gambling corporations from getting insanely predatory is government regulation. What do you think they'll choose if they are the government? Well-being of the subjects or the chance to expand and be more profitable?
>>524182993>shows the most dystopian city possible you know what, (you) will fucking learn the answer by experience anyways.
>>524182993We are already close to it, but it would be a kind of neo-feudalism.
>>524182993Why does Night City look oddly like Israel?
>>524182993>openlyAt least you can see that it already is. When you look ar things like the British East India Company, the Dutch East India Company, the church, etc you can see that there have been many corporations more powerful than countries. The banking system is pretty much world government.
>>524187548Your axioms are false >the only thing preventing gambling is governmentAbsolutely wrong >governments aren’t motivated by profit Yes they are, either literally or their profit is not just direct currency aka power, influence, Growth of itself etc. If governments weren’t motivated by profit how have liberal democracies become the most taxed and controlled populations ever in human history ?
>>524187773It’s supposed to be a future LA. Southern California and the eastern med have like identical climates
>>524182993We had that 200 years ago when corporations were, dare I say, ethical.Nowdays it would be a disaster.
at least it would be a bit more honest than the current situation. also, you now have>i really wanna stay at your housein you head
>>524188018>Absolutely wrongenlighten me then>governments aren’t motivated by profitnowhere did I say such a thing. They are, but they are also beholden to the constituents and keeping the pretense of caring about latter. Corporations have no such considerations
>>524188445Culture? Church? Community? The government can only declare things illegal and make them harder to do they can’t actually act as a balance for vice they are a reflection of the demands of the civilization they are part of Stop thinking of corporations as seperate from the state they aren’t, In a world where the nation state is supplanted by a corporation network you actually have a monopoly on governance broken, way easier and more straightforward to move corpos or be sold between corporations increasing the competitions for good workers and good talent It is in the corporations interest to have content productive citizens and consumers just like it is in the interest of the state to do the same You need to go back to the beginning and read Plato again m8
>>524188722>Culture? Church? Community?>PlatoI'm talking about real life and you're blasting me with reddit-spaced empty philosophy. I already gave you the example with gambling corporations because it's a real-world occurrence - countries in this region are plagued by gambling, we also have casino-tourists from countries where it's prohibited
>>524182993My moral comstitution states that less overall harm is done when a population of 100k savages does what savages doVs a population of 6 billion that industrializes and portions of that savagry to a million blackmailed individuals
>>524189293It’s clear you are incapable of understanding how the state and society functions
>>524182993Is this the whole US in 2077?
No, this country sucks dick
>>524182993have you even played the game or read the lore retard? Nightcity look like a nightmare if you compare it with something like LA,A big portion of the population have no jobs or are criminals, almost the highest crime rate in all of America, total corporations control and gangs are their slaves or work for them while while the gangs terrorize the population(drugs, organ traficking, murder, prostitution etc), you don't own anything you rent anything, food is goyslop x 10, water is cancerous and good water is 100 eurodollars for almost 4 liters(a gallon), if you die in the middle of the streets nobody will bother to do anythingThe only good things about it ar e the neon lights and you can shoot back if someone want to kill you/rape you
