POLL: Who do you want to be USA's New President?

[beachbum111111]

Pretty sure this intel business is capped off because amd doesn't make enough money to compete and obtaining a x86 license is extremely loving hard.

I'm not socialist, I just hate paying through the nose to buy basic loving hardware and standard-issue broadband.

Changing the free market isn't going to magically make things cheaper.

but if they want to keep making money they need access to an educated and skilled workforce.

Not really. Why do you think so many countries manufacture their stuff in China now?

yes also more college education means the workforce is more skilled

The more people who have those skills the less companies will need people with those skills.

And you know that how? What economist can you cite who claims that?

Yes, the manufacturing is done in oppressed stuff holes because the labor is cheap and human rights violations are easy to get away with. Who do you think is buying those products? Who is designing the products being manufactured and the factories and equipment used to produce them?

the problem is
where do the guidelines start

To start, by preventing companies from purposely not providing their service in the area that their main competitor are mainly so they don't have to compete on the market. Or by having more clear guidelines on preventing company mergers that allow one entity to control an entire industry.

Changing the free market isn't going to magically make things cheaper.

If you're going to ignore my point, I'm going to ignore your posts. Intel purposely prevents people from competing with them, and uses the factor that they aren't in direct competition with anyone besides AMD to inflate the price of their hardware. Preventing them from doing this will make their hardware "magically" cheaper.

they manufacture in china because its cheap
manufacturing in china consists of an assembly line
not a skilled workforce

...you don't know why there is a current unemployment issue, do you?

And you know that how?

Think about it. More people will have the same degree's such as computer science for example, after the companies hire the people they need they won't exactly need to hire extra people with those degrees. It just leaves the rest of the people with those degrees still searching for a job.

The only difference between that and now is that those people with degrees searching for jobs aren't also in crippling debt from student fees...

I seriously see nothing bad coming from more people having free degrees on the market

At which point the market will likely expand to fill the role of job creation or stagnate, and people will begin seeking career paths in more viable fields. This applies to every degree/career not just computer science.

Technology is a highly skilled field that likely won't even see the problems that say an English degree has, because STEM degrees are what drive new research, products, and ways of doing things to create new markets.

I have thought about it. I've also read about it. What I know is that making education more available increases economic growth, leading to job creation. It shifts the economy away from the unstable/low-skilled industries like manufacturing, and towards a higher skilled knowledge economy. If you want me to find sources and will actually read them, I will get them.

Yeah, that's typically not the point of changing the free market, we want to encourage competition by making sure that companies can't use their gigantic financial clout to drive competitors out of the market. Things becoming cheaper is a side effect, what people would like more is if giant companies had incentive to innovate and compete instead of just driving smaller guys out of business or just absorbing them whole.

That, and the U.S. doesn't even have a completely free market in the first place, there are government subsidies, regulations, and etc. that pretty much throw out the notion of a completely free market out the window. You know what you get with a free market? Monopolies.

This is a really great point. Essentially nobody believes in a completely free market, there is always government intervention. A purely free market would be terrible for everyone.
