My hope is that it implodes fast enough that the base level remains viable.

Pulling the scab off the festering wound.

As for investments, it is all one enormous ponzi.

Goldman Sachs apparently came out with a report of not seeing any real killer application for AI.

Just automating the bullshit generation. Tulips.

As I keep saying, we made the medium the message, but storing the asset side requires a debt on the other side. Much of which will be lost. Commercial real estate was shot through the heart by covid and the move to work remotely. Those loans are starting to reach the point the losses will have to be taken.

The only real way massive numbers of people can invest is fairly collectively. The whole, it takes a village thing. Trying to chop it up into infinite pieces of investments only enables the predators, scavengers and parasites. It's more hamburger than cow.

Given so much of the rest of the world is coming together, basically as a reaction to the depredations of the West, then that the Western elites have grown so monumentally out of touch, with both the rest of the world and their own people, that the head might be cleanly chopped from the snake.

Between now and the election, the shrieking is going to go parabolic. Even Trump has been relatively quiet, as the house of cards crumbles.

Something about not disturbing the other side, when they are making mistakes.
