A thread wherein I argue with someone who, like me, wants to get rid of or scale down the FDA and USDA. The topic itself is meh, but it ties into post rationality, bayesianism, a kind of argument I dislike even when (especially when) it's for a goal I agree with.https://twitter.com/MorlockP/status/1119934376542793728 …

You get to the heart of a matter that irritates me about libertarians and others. I think you're right, tearing down system X does not imply system Y will rise up from the ashes.

We see this all the time, though. We're not talking about re-doing entire society. We're talking about buying food from neighbor vs. corporation receiving state subsidies delivering product hundreds of miles on taxpayer funded transpo infrastructure. https://reason.com/2010/08/06/what-beer-deregulation-can-tea …

You are ignoring every single thing I say and repeating your thesis over and over. I find this conversation to be wildly non productive.
