I've made this point on this forum before.

These are natural rights. The constitution, as you say, delineates state powers as a necessary infringement upon those rights.

Well, you see, when people invest their resources in any venture, they incur an "opportunity" cost.

On the contrary, the pro is likely to prefer tabs—you can adjust the display-width for better ergonomics.

Good, then you're not a scab!

"Buy more lottery tickets!"

no, it's "buy lottery tickets to exclusive lotteries".

the ability to enter such lotteries is where success lies. either through connections or ability.

If you need connections and ability then you are back to luck.

those can be cultivated.

To a degree maybe but the degree differs dramatically for different people. To give an extreme, someone with a significant disability growing up in an impoverished family in the middle of nowhere is generally going to have very little opportunity to cultivate connections and ability.

In my metaphor, "lottery winners" is already representing exclusivity.

What makes this a luxury? I've met many people in my life, and this gives me the opportunity to pick-and-choose with whom I do business. It's a matter of degree.

Plus, I've been on the receiving end, too. Is this not simply adulthood?

We're not even taking all the same pills on long-settled science like climate change.

And most of the world is still taking crazy pills.

To what degree are the competing Chinese labs nationalized?

And—although this is a different point—it's their flagrant exploitation of information commons that warrants their special treatment.

It's not "automation"—it's lack of ownership over the firm, such that automation gains pass us by.

It's obviously Capital that gains, and Labor that's screwed.

This is not how accusations of hypocrisy work. I don't have to agree with any particular stance of yours in order to accuse you of hypocrisy.
