It work like that anymore. Companies make money by pumping their stock. They don’t have to sell anything anymore. It’s all powered by speculation.

I don’t work like that. They will always have a business. Because we have no choice. We have to buy their shit. We don’t need AI in everything. But if everything has AI, we have to buy AI. And we have to pay more, because it has AI. A decade ago it was touchscreens on everything.

Can’t buy shit if we have no jobs.

You can’t buy shit if you have no money. A job does not equal money.

Don’t worry. You’ll soon be able to buy everything on credit!
Don’t miss that payment though…

These fucks literally complain about millenials “killing restaurants” and shit because we can’t afford to eat out while also telling us that if we can’t afford anything we should stop eating out. It’s been decades of that nonsensez
If there’s no one left to buy their shit that’s a huge problem that can’t just be pretended away.
