      They’ll run it into the ground regardless.

        Well, yeah, they always do. Republican admins always leave the economy in the shitter and saddle the nation up with debt so that the incoming Democratic admin has to spend all of their time bringing the economy back up to speed rather than implementing effective reform.

          They aren’t interested in effective reform either. Biden had chances to tax billionaires, or to imprison Trump. But yes they are better at handling the economy.

      The market would be freer if it wasn’t dominated by a couple capitalist megacorpos. So nationalisation doesn’t mean less freedom, although neolib propaganda would love you to think so.
