alt Hacker NewsYou are far too focused on the meta of this conversation and trying to head off every possible response. This isn’t conducive to discussion.
You proposed nuclear weapons as an example, that got us off on a very strange foot. That is all I was attempting to point out.
I’m the one who is trying to bring it back to the original point. I also brought up healthcare and aerospace. There are many examples of government limits on business that go against your thesis of “this has always happened externally and is only now being applied internally”.
I literally said nuclear was an example. You apparently didn’t draw the line to the broader principle.
