Please, free market capitalists: defend your hero.

Gotta imagine there’s a free speech absolutist who doesn’t love this

They're not a car company anyway, they're a "robotics and AI company". Apparently.

I don't think she is calling herself a free market capitalist.

Though I agree, she is being cheeky. This isn't a free market, it's the opposite of it. It is insider trading and she and no one in Congress should be allowed to do that.

Does Pelosi call herself a free market capitalist?

Did you read the article I linked?

[–] FlyingSquid 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

No, because it says 'page unavailable' when I try.

Now please answer my question.

Not sure why you're being so pushy?

Anyway, here's the correct link. It should answer your question...

Asking you a question then asking you to answer it when you don't is hardly being pushy.

But the answer is that no, she doesn't call herself that, she just says that this is a free market. So I'm not sure why you couldn't just say so.
