Everyone predicted this. Why the fuck didn't the billionaires? What is their major malfunction?
Oh it is simple, they are fucking dumb. Always have been. If they do have some brain cells to rub together they will get stuck on short term gains for themselves which in the long run is fucking dumb.
Either way you slice it dumb, just fucking dumb.
No one tells them no
Because they always think they're the exception and everyone else is doing it wrong.
It's not uncommon with narcissists.
They think it’s worth it to scare employees and suppress wages.
Even if it costs more to fix the mistakes it might actually be cheaper if people don’t win wage increases and layoffs continue.
I’m not saying this will work but it seems to be at least part of the logic.
They did, but they knew they could make money out of it anyway.
they are billionaires. they just want more hot air for their bubble i sure know they have lots of it in the bottom area behind them
Billionaires, that's the malfunction, time to dine yet?
maybe when red state gasoline hits 7.50
