Merry Christmas.
I’ll shock you with this Christmas present from chat GPT that may change your whole outlook on life (or it may not)::
Democracy is to ideas what capitalism and neoliberalism is to goods.
Here’s how the comparison works
The core analogy
Capitalism (markets for goods)
- Many producers compete
- Consumers choose
- Bad products fail, good ones spread
- Prices signal value
- Innovation emerges from competition
Democracy (markets for ideas)
- Many ideas compete
- Citizens choose (votes, speech, debate)
- Bad ideas lose legitimacy, good ones spread
- Public opinion signals value
- Policy innovation emerges from contestation
Where the analogy is strong
1.
- No single authority decides the “best” idea or product
- Trial-and-error replaces top-down certainty
2.
- Markets evolve via consumer choice
- Democracies evolve via elections, debate, reform
3.
- Multiple firms ↔ multiple parties, movements, viewpoints
- Monopolies ↔ authoritarianism
4.
- Failed products teach markets
- Failed policies teach electorates (in theory)
There you are my fellow ponderer of economic systems. If you support democracy as the ultimate system by the same reasoning you must support capitalism and neoliberalism as they are founded in the same principals.
So Chloe Swarbruik would be a Kiwibank if she was a company. Merry Christmas!

Mental note: avoid discussing neoliberalism.

I thought you had misgendered Chloe for a minute there but I guess the moustache is a bit of a giveaway.
It does make sense though because the majority of the country when they see or hear Chloe exclaim 'Jesus Christ!'
Merry Christmas to all, Happy Birthday Jesus and be thankful that it's only Christmas Day that is red and green.
National certainly have made Christmas blue for many. Hope it’s been a good sermon this morning
Jesus is the reason for the season. God bless you @Noitall and everyone else. Wishing you all good health.
