consistently say like "No. You said X. I win" or other shit like that are always SJWs. They are in a fucking cult.

I don't ever find it annoying. I find it fun, which is why I do it. If it were annoying, I would just stop replying. It's not about win/lose

I'll give you that the discussion got off topic. But my points about this are basic rules of economics and civil engineering.

True. This has become a scattered thread, and that could be my fault. I can certainly take the L due to bad form.

the 'supply' had too meet the 'demand'. There are plenty of cases in the US where both sides of that refuse to play in the market.

Rural Americans commonly don't have utility service, bc the utility company deemed it too expensive to run service to remote locations.

Create system that delivers water through piping to a community where everyone is already on well water, & watch it not be used.

They aren't marketed bc it's not a damn free market, & the reason is "just because". I don't buy that reasoning.

The difference is that we are offering our children at this alter, not ourselves. These folks are pushing indoctrination in public schools.

Utilities are useless without demands. Give the Internet to people 100 years ago, & it's useless. You demand sewage treatment, & the supply

You are in a highly unique situation. If a woman has multiple suitors, why would she choose the one that makes her pay?
