      Even better, they’ll make it out to be our (the people’s) fault, for something, then proceed to give the tech bros billions in bailouts.

        I would say I hope they’re preparing their resumes (for whoever is getting the top tier bracket (which I suspect probably wasn’t all that many if any to begin with)) but even if they got just one months worth of salary that’s…25 mil…yea they’ll be fine

      If their resumes weren’t written by AI, that’s a good indicator that it’s all a scam.

      The guy hasn’t had a good idea since he was 20 years old. Just keeps dumping billions of dollars into stupid fads. Just imagine all the good he could be doing with that money instead of flushing it down the toilet on terrible investments.
