Does it though? Universities seem to be doing the heavily lifting innovation-wise.

Well yes, but universities certainly do not stop Nestlé from selling their own products so cheap that local businesses (which refused to get bought up by Nestlé) go bankrupt because they can not sell their only product with a loss.

I was responding to the first half "restricted capitalism does that"

What's your point? Monopoly does not imply innovation.

[-] MisterFrog@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

My point is that captialism doesn't have as big a role in innovation as many would claim.

Captialism also leads to monopoly when unchecked. I was responding to the first half.

  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
