To date, I have not heard a single CEO talk about where the money will come from if no one is employed.
How can consumers consume if they don't have any money?
Because these drug and AI addled idiots refuse to or can't think more than a quarter ahead at a time. As there are no consequences for the executive caste, why should they?
That's what the rich dickhead bunkers in remote locations are for, my friend.
Apparently long as bots are buying from them they care. The goal is keep the stock in green Apparently they don't need consumers for that.
