Yeah of course industries will collapse. 100 car factories will close, 5 superyacht factories will open, tying up the same amount of productivity. Owned by the same guy.

There will be tons of spacecraft launchpads, private jet hangars, etc.

And wars of course.

The rich will keep trading with each other. Look at housing for an example.

The rich. Companies will stop targeting products to wider and wider swathes of people, just like nobody caters to the homeless now.

Schutzstaffel, as in protective service would probably be a better description of what they actually do I guess

Secret service better fits sg like the CIA

I had to do a double take on that abbreviation

The extreme right gained some seats, but they are very far from winning an election. They actually underperformed expectations and are actively losing ground eg. in France or the NL. Even Orbán’s regime seems to have found a challenger.

The fight is not over yet, but this election has been very far from a far right win.

Commercial flights don’t typically use uncontrolled airports. That said, it could also be on the pilots, hence the investigation.

If the journos did their jobs, they could have probably checked out LiveATC for the comms.

Mostly a shrug. Live and let live.

Other billionaires making money might have started to be afraid to do so.

But that someone will have their own priorities that will most likely not always coindice with yours.

Lawfare it to hell and back?

Well, yes?

I guess they have as much to do with it as “industry leaders”.

The thing is, a lot of it might not. See Russia for an example.

TM and Livenation own the venues as well IIRC.

Also owned by Google, so this change might make it over

So there is the market capitalist solution of breaking them up and letting the pieces compete with each other, or the socialist solution of nationalizing them.

If this goes on, how do you know any of those airframes aren’t as much of a sham as the 787?

This is how you end up with an army like Russia.

Didn’t Bloomie only run because he got scared of Bernie?

Student athletes!

On the other hand, you do need to fuck up education big time, and suck hope out of the people with policies that only benefit the rich for decades for it to be appealing.

In your analogy, people today have no vegetables on the menu, just subsistence amounts of bread and water versus hamberders and cheap beer. And we get less and less bread every year.

People would like veggies, a lot of them, especially kids, but the veggie peddlers are beaten up and driven away by the bread and water people, since literal poison is easier to compete with.

Especially since the EP elections just happened, and he was speaking in Italy.
