All the more reason why people should NOT be stating with absolute certainty what society will be like under this system

Is someone doing that? It's been stated many times by ACers that they don't exactly know what would come about under AC, but they can offer guesses as to what might.

More or less anytime I've pointed out problems I think you'll face in AC society (and many times others do it as well) I get a very dismissive response that said problem will not happen for one or more of the following reasons:

1. The state will no longer be present to facilitate it

2. People will boycott the company if they do that

3. Competition will eliminate that

4. People will realize that's -EV and avoid it

...and then someone tells me I don't know what I'm talking about. Typically these answers don't really address the point of the argument and once this is pointed out there is an AC dogpile of people nitpicking tangential points, making excuses or just being rude.

When someone points out (like bison) situations where serious problems could arise, he is typically met with silence, or nonsubstantive responses.
