US right wing libertarians. Though libertarianism is infantile to begin with, the US right wing version is even worse.

Free market just doesn't work. It should be plainly obvious to anyone, but apparently IT FUCKING ISN'T. The reason for price increase lately is because most markeds have matured into oligopolies or just straight up monopolies, even when it's not really obvious. There's like 5 companies that make ALL THE FOOD in supermarkets. If you look at candy there's 2 or 3 different producers disguised under different brand names.

Tech is the absolute worst when it comes to this. Nvidia has a straight up monopoly, and if the US government wasn't corrupt pieces of shit, that literally made bribes legal, they would have anti-trusted them at least a decade ago. Intel was running a FUCKING RACKET for years without any intervention, and when they did get a slap on the wrist the damage was done. FUCKING MICROSOFT. And despite changing their tune the last 10-15 years with the open source work they still fucking suck. Google is manipulating their monopoly situation both on web browsers (Chromium), Search and with Android (they recently made a change that makes it so that you can't install "untrusted" software even though there's absolutely zero indication that this is an actual security issue).

The hard thing is to INFORM PEOPLE that the system is rigged, because the people that rigged it is also in control of the information flow.
