Instead of minimizing costs by performing massive workforce reductions and while not earning profit, corporate officers could just... earn some profit to keep the momentum going. And to go beyond, beyond initial starting conditions.
But that's asking for too much from the average corporate leadership. Efficiency and technology acquisition are too much for these agents of the entrenched hegemony. So, what we have right now is a form of nationalist socialist welfare that looks like our current financial-administrative system. There's some momentum and inertia, but it's all being wasted on keeping unproductive fat cats alive.
And that's okay. Because smart people will be leaving this oppressive Egypt under a stubborn Pharaoh. For much better lands and pasture. And while that happens, profit will start to look like a heinous crime to these welfare recipients. Who naturally will not be invited to the awesome parties that's coming in the future.
Something like Eloi and Morlocks, if you wanna get biological about it. Eloi and Morlocks, though, are just the starting point. H.G. Wells didn't have anime music videos to inspire him to think about the more accurate possibilities of a matrix of biological degradation and environmental niche adaptation.
