The trump regime was designed to TANK the US economy so that stocks, businesses, and industries can be bought by billionaires at rock bottom prices.
All is going according to plan.
I have an acquaintance that works for an old money, very wealthy family from oil money. The kind that influences regional as well as national politics. He worked for them during the last major recession in the late ‘00s. He basically said that his employer and all their buddies were running all over the world buying everything they could “like it is a fire sale” during the recession.
So yeah. This is how we get more billionaires, more oligarchs, and more meta national corpo monopolies where one company controls multiple brand names.
The best we can do is to quit as soon as your company gets purchased. What they are after is the people. Specially the key role people.
Don't document your process. Fix things without opening change requests. That way if you assemble things the quality will drop when you leave.
If you're in a key role, just quit. Don't go fucking around by deleting data. It's better to make up data instead that seems real but is not. Never write an email that is personal or has anger in it because, even if you don't send it, it gets saved. Same for your teams messages. You want to stay in the industry, but just quit if your company gets taken over by a billionaire.
Yeah, almost seems like it. I am convinced they are at least doing something like the "Mar-a-Lago Accord" to devalue the dollar, unseat the USD as the global reserve currency, inflate debt away, and make wages low enough and people desperate enough so more manufacturing is viable in the US again.
Can you define "rock bottom prices"? -- asking for a friend.
