There are some major useful idiots here that are defending Twitter.

Guess what, Twitter and media companies lost their right to censor free speech once they allowed billions of tax dollars to prop them up.

WRT social media shutting out conservatives....here’s something you can do right now.

ACTION NOW——SOCIAL MEDIA NEEDS TO GET THOUSANDS OF LETTERS FROM USERS

INFORM YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA PROVIDER, YOu ARE COMMISSIONING AN INDEPENDENT AUDIT OF YOUR ACCOUNT.... .for the following reasons:

According to the Association of CPA’s, an audit is a systematic and independent examination of books, accounts, statutory records, documents and vouchers of an organization (non-profit or publicly-held) to ascertain authenticity of financial statements as well as non-financial disclosures and to codify that the account presents a true and fair view of the issues at hand.

An audit also attempts to ensure that the account is properly maintained as required by federal and state law. The auditor perceives and recognises the issues, and conducts a examination, obtains evidence, evaluates the same, and formulates an opinion on the basis of informed judgement which is communicated through an audit report.

Issues such as selling ads based on account-holders, collection monies on behalf of an account-holder, disposition of monies, billing procedures, and the detailed reporting of these issues to principles and stake-holders.

This includes the federal government, state government, the SEC, liability companies, as well as the account holder.

Areas commonly audited include: compliance audits, internal controls, quality management, project management, and collection and disposition of monies. As a result of an audit, principles and stake-holders may effectively evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control, for the edification of the account-holder and the relevant federal and state governance agencies with a financial stake in the subject matter.

Financial audits are commonly performed to ascertain the validity and reliability of information, as well as to provide an assessment of a system’s internal control. As a result of this, each party can have an accounting given on financial statements based on on the audit evidence obtained.

Due to constraints and limitations that might be placed on the auditor, an audit seeks to provide reasonable assurance that the statements are free from material error. In the case of financial audits, a set of financial statements are said to be true and fair when they are free of material misstatements – a concept influenced by both quantitative (numerical) and qualitative factors.

Copies of the audit are to be provided to principles and stake-holders including legal oversight agencies, liability companies and oversight agencies, and officials of the state and federal government deemed stakeholders in the resultant financial accounting.

“For example, can a private business legally put a sign in the window “no blacks allowed” and refuse black business?”

It’s illegal now, as well as taboo, politically incorrect, and even dangerous.

But yes, any private citizen SHOULD be able to refuse to enter into a transaction with anyone, for any reason.

If the concepts of individual liberty and free enterprise mean anything, no one SHOULD be forced to enter into a transaction not of their choosing. Period. That means they SHOULD be able to refuse to do business with redheads, tall people or cripples, and they shouldn’t even have to explain.

That sounds harsh, but think about it: If I decide not to purchase from a certain store owner, for whatever reason, nobody questions that - so if a buyer is free to choose a seller, why shouldn’t a seller be free to choose a buyer?

After all they are two sides of a trade - what is the difference? In fact, in a barter economy, where there is no currency, both traders are equally buyer and seller. I’m selling my furs to you in order to buy potatos from you. You are selling your potatos to me to buy my furs. We are both seller and both buyer.

In today’s racially charged America, the Left has figured out that it can exploit identity politics to create divisions and thereby justify redistributive socialism.

It is a false justification though, because it sacrifices the constitutional right to property ownership for the unconstitutional, imaginary and nonenforceable “right” to equality. Once a citizen can be forced, on the basis of inequality, to enter into a trade not of his choosing, then all property rights are forfeit.

Unfortunately, that train left the station a long time ago - there is no limit to the legal plunder that can be committed by the majority through taxation, regulation, fiat money and deficit spending, whereby it can simply vote to confiscate other people’s money, or for free services. This conversion to socialism was all justified by the false boogeyman of inequality and it started with the notion that citizens can be forced into transactions against their will, if it suits the collective to force them.

When there are only a few “stores” (Google, twitter, Facebook etc) customers are beholden to the media companies who own them.

When the censorship rules are based on abstract concepts like hate speech, PC or civil rights (but only for s ome) those who run the media control the message.

The solution comes down to two possibilities.

One the corporations that get critical mass and significanta following must be forbidden from all censorship except for illegal activity.

Or these mega limited organizations need broken up into culturally, ethnically and politically diverse entities that represent the viewpoints of all of America and not just certain groups. The latter is more difficult to implement.

The alt left have historically used violence and intimidation to threaten those who disagree. The right supports the 2A mostly to defend themselves if needed.

“...the corporations that get critical mass....Or these mega....organizations need broken up....”

There is a dirty secret the government doesn’t want people to know regarding how monopolies come about: it’s the government’s fault in the first place!

As the most successful companies begin to dominate the competition within their industry, they benifit from economies of scale, but they also suffer from over extension. Many entrepreneurs whose companies experienced mega growth wish for the days when they had a single crew that they managed directly - the replication, delegation and scaling up required to span entire regions involves managerial skills totally unrelated to the skills that made them competitive in the first place.

The point is that in a truly competitive market, companies do NOT naturally grow until the largest one absorbs and monopolizes all others. Instead, they encounter new challenges as they grow, and continue to compete for market share.

So how do monopolies come about? The government. The largest companies can afford to lobby the government and finance political campaigns so as to pass advantageous legislation to protect them from competition. Every lobbyist and every bought and paid for politician who claims to be protecting the environment, protecting consumers, or protecting patients from unsafe drugs or medical quackery - what they are really doing is protecting the corporations they work for from competition.

These powerful lobbies bribe legislators to pass legislation that exempts them from regulation or taxation while hobbling the competition. In some cases they pass legislation that directly enforces a monopoly. But often, the protection from competition is counter intuitive - the powerful lobbies for big pharma for example seek MORE regulation and MORE taxation for their entire industry, even themselves - why? because they are large enough to survive compliance while their smaller competitors are not.

Without their government partner to enforce them, corporations could not easily achieve these monopolies.

It is useful to look at examples of monopolies throughout our history and question what part the government played - not in breaking them up - but in subsidizing them, protecting them from competition, enabling them in the first place.

This gigantic, bohemoth, oversized government of ours is totally corrupt - to find out who controls it - follow the K street money.

Well said. Monopolistic corporation are more likely to rest on their laurels, innovate less, be less responsive to customers, be less concerned about competition, reduce staff reponsibe for customer service and innovation, lobby politicians for our tax money, etc.

We are better off with competiton rather than megopolies like Facebook, Google, etc.
