And in many markets it's not. Well-run state companies, that exists, and have existed for a long long time, efficiency is not a problem and they can focus their efforts and money on what's important, not profits and marketing.

Don't tone police me please. I find it rude to assume ignorance and go on explaining. Did you miss the whole mansplaining wave?

Would you please stop posting in the flamewar style to HN? It's not what this site is for, and we ban accounts that keep doing it.

Sure. However, given the rudeness in the replies I feel that I restrained myself decently with a few slips.

"You can't coherently and simultaneously believe"

"You might as well call it "fascist" or "colonialist". It's jibberish."

"it is fine for you to simply disagree and walk away"

"Right, so it was a bullshit distraction that can safely be ignored."

"You're still not understanding."

"Now read this slowly and carefully"

"You are completely misunderstanding the argument."

"I think you're trying to construct a straw man"

"which discussion you opened with a snarky, dismissive one-liner."

"[if] you're able to use google for five minutes. At this point, though, I'm confident that you're interested only in polemics, rather than actually learning anything about the issue."
