Here in Asia, things are different. This seems to be mostly a problem with US airlines. I don't think it's really a surprise that there is not a single US airline in the list of best airlines. And if I remember correctly, all but two are asian.
I wonder if US travellers have been exposed to the boiling frog for a long time, and most travellers don't leave the US so they don't know that things could be like.
Jason ON well. This will be pointless as you didn't read what I wrote. But it isn't unrestrained capitalism. Exactly the opposite. It is lawcap. Lawyer monopoly capitalism.
Pretty much the exact opposite of a free market, which isn't unrestrained. And completely unrelated to unrestrained capitalism.
Of course, I am using more or less traditional definitions. You definition would require me making up new words for everything else in economics.
I did read what you wrote, Christof Harper. Capitalism left to it's own free will, so to speak, will always seek the lowest common denominator and work long and hard to maintain that standard.
Mmm. Disagree. Anarchic capitalism allows for that, by way of syndicates (oddly something socialists of certain types seem to love) and monopoly control.
A free market, to remain free, must be protected to prevent that, enabling the individual to own and grow his own capital (means of production).
But capitalism itself has no will, it's just an increasingly (and frustratingly) complex set of various economic models.
You're right - capitalism is and of itself has no will, however it is defined by the actions of the people working in that playing field and those people work exactly as I described.
We will disagree. I get that. All free market economics is evil for you. Fortunately for me as a self employed artist, you guys haven't enslaved me to the people's farm combine yet.
Of the two of them, we now know which one Vlad "the Mad" Putin believes is the girl in their relationship. For a "macho macho man" like #DonaldTrump that's going to hurt. #TrumpNation http://www.denverpost.com/2017/09/05/vladmir-putin-donald-trump/
So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him. Me asking https://plus.google.com/112885755521259735422/posts/78dwnvvgh4p Then he plusses me onto Public posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/EuuR1tnU3vJ https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/8r6Grcm2Jpj https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/74PgSu6iL2s Then one of his friends (or Circlers) starts plussing me into posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/107120198886093172821/posts/gRW9JhWLs5T Don't get me wrong, I'm all about sarcasm and messing with people, but this seems sort of childish to me.

As a knifemaker I am an artist and a capitalist. I control and grow my own means of production and sell goods.
What you are saying is that I MUST seek to give the crappies product with the maximum profit.
I disagree.
