If that's the thing that kills the economy, the economy deserves to be killed

[–] Flower@sh.itjust.works 37 points 14 hours ago (3 children)

Which economy? The billionaire economy of the normies economy?

[–] SolacefromSilence@fedia.io 10 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

First one, then the other because it's only fair

[–] Flower@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

ah, because the billionaires are going to suck the blood from the regular economy like a vampire to recover

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 1 points 22 minutes ago

Recover? No they buy low and double their take (or 100x or whatever the ratio is at this point).

We’re doing trillionaires now don’t forget. Even though Elon might not be anymore, there will be others unless we get our act together.

[–] Atropos@lemmy.world 5 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

We will follow the billionaires into it economic hell. In solidarity of course.

Fuck, I wish we had a choice in this.

We could always make them feel like life is hell and death would be welcome, especially considering that they're doing it to us., and they. Do. Not. Care.

They can fuck all our pensions up for good and starve us. That’s what it took to start the French Revolution, this time it’s gonna be global though.

For normal people it will just mean some inflation increase and interest rates increase

Nothing we havent seen in the past few years

[–] dan1101@lemmy.world 3 points 13 hours ago

No our federal government will spend billions to bail out whatever AI companies are favored by trump this week.
