Products are being created for rich people. Poor people are being cut out of the economy.

    There's already a lot of evidence that the majority of the economy is currently functioning off the economic activity of the upper 10% of society. That 10% accounts for 50% of all economic activity. They just want to take it a step further.

    Okay but here's a half of a thought.

    Who's building it, and how quickly do rich people get bored?

    Y'all are fuckin delusional. Aside from sabin down there. Mans got goals.

    In my experience, people that chase infinite numbers are fucking soulless wretches. They've never enjoyed anything. So when I say they get bored, it's their very first and only state.

    Also. We're not talking about what they want. I am currently building it. You are currently building it. You can argue we're slaves but that's just semantics at this point.
