> How many companies are still around that were here 100 years ago? 50 years ago? 25 years ago? Why did these companies go down if there aren't any bullshit j

  Because they were valuable at one time and then they faded into un-profitability. See Sears, Roebuck & Co. Companies, industries, and jobs all have lives just like organisms. We don't look at a dead person and claim their life was bullshit, because they died, do we?
