I'll save you the read:

1) People are tightening their belts due to economic and political uncertainty and expensive leggings are not at the top of the list of necessities

2) People are more and more... GASP... Buying second hand clothes !!!!!

It's almost like having your billionaire friend grind the middle class into the ground is bad for business.

That’s really at the heart of it. Even if everyone of them realize it’s unsustainable, they all will keep pillaging because the rest of them are. Better for them to get what they can now and fuck everyone else than be the one left holding the bag.

We could be living in the most amazing society worldwide if it wasn’t for greed.

99% of them were born rich or just got lucky. Some peoples jealousy of them clouds their judgement and the envy turns into worship.

Who needs more than a living wage when you can go into credit card debt buying expensive leggings?

Hey now, have a heart. That billionaire was nearly in tears over his Tesla stock cratering. Like he says, what kind of sick person takes joy in that?

Just kidding, we all do. Except the Elon stans of course, but they're a lost cause.

I really don't understand millionaire and billionaire business owners who vote to lowering wages and taking money from the lower class.

Like that's your prime business demo you fucking dummies who do you think is buying all your shit

Exactly, these tech billionaires have lost the plot. Zuck and friends make their money selling ads when you get to the root of their business. When the people have no money to spend your ads are worthless. Jeff when the people are poor they'll be on Temu not Amazon.
