> if the people paying the salaries would rather make 1,000 bets on the Next Big Thing, and if 999 of them fail but one succeeds that is far better than 100 who fail and 900 which become medium-sized, profitable companies, then overproduction is what you get. I think we are getting this equation wrong as a society. We need figure out how to spin out the 900 that become medium-sized profitable companies. In a sense, companies like bending spoons are doing just that. We haven't found yet how to make 1000 bets, have one be the Next Big Thing, and profit from the 900 that are still profitable enterprises in their own but fail in the overproduction environment that we think we need for the Next Big Thing.
