I still can't believe that the united states had multiple lunar landing missions and several people set foot on the moon... and now the US military and civilian space agencies are reliant on a company run by a Nazi manchild and that cannot send spaceships and satellites beyond low earth orbit...
To be fair to Musk (LOL!) NASA was chock full of former Nazi scientists back then. You don't believe me? walk into NASA sometime and yell "Heil Hitler!" WOOP! They all jump straight up! R.I.P Jessica Walter.
In all seriousness going to LEO gets the job done the vast majority of the time, medium and high earth orbit have very few use cases with the exception of geostationary which SpaceX has gone to.
Going to the moon is very energy intensive and you don't get a ton of benefit for it so there's no real point to going there. Apollo was a jobs program and a dick waving contest with Soviet Russia to prove who could put the biggest nuke anywhere on Earth. Going to the moon has very little scientific/practical value outside of political stunts which Apollo and Artemis programs definitely are
It was supposed to be our shipyard to build bigger ships than we could lift to orbit, until the dick waving started. NASA had much much bigger plans than just walking around on the moon.
Shareholders don’t need to make profits anymore because they literally own everything and are actively participating in a coup to keep it that way.
Counterpoint: Linux on the desktop works now
Linux is famously both American and Corporate /s
But yeah sytsem76 and valve are both american and valve is corporate. And around Lemmy you would think they are the only ones responsible for the Linux boom.
It's a little bit of both of those nowadays with all the corporate maintainers and the fact that the Linux Foundation is headquartered in the US and Torvalds lives in the US too
But really it's still a global effort
Hannah Montana Linux can run code on time itself and create whatever you want from nothing.
"Product hoarding" conflicts with wealth hoarding. The only logical solution is to make less durable products that quickly wear out with frequent use.
That way consumers are forced to spend more and contribute more to the hoarded wealth of individuals who know very well they won't be able to spend their fortunes before they die. However their desire for more and more wealth to hoard is limitless because it acts as a useless status symbol amongst other wealth hoarders.
When consumers become concerned about skyrocketing cost of living and wealth inequality, the wealth hoarders will remind them they're lazy and greedy. If they didn't want to be poor they should have worked harder (like them) or been more careful not to spend all their money on "frivolous purchases."
However if consumers don't spend enough money on frivolous purchases, they're not being smart, they're "product hoarding." When consumers don't have money to spend, but the wealth hoarders continue to churn out shitty products that they know nobody will buy, the economy will collapse.
The wealth hoarders could afford to take the hit. It might even help them understand cause and effect, so they don't just keep making the same mistakes in the future. They could even use some of their hoarded wealth to get themselves out of the hole they dug by just giving it to the consumers to spend on their own products. But instead, they're usually just given a bailout because they're too big to fail.
After all, the economy would collapse without them...

Everything for the shareholders!
Capitalism still works!
