- chii 9mo agoIn the long run, we're all dead. So shareholders might suffer the same fate, but they're more comfortable before we all drown.
- blurbleblurble 9mo agoTheir comfort is hollow and false
- actionfromafar 9mo agoIf they can afford the oxygen tanks, their comfort is slightly better than the rest of us. It's what makes America great again!
- array_key_first 9mo agoIt depends. If you're someone like, say, Trump, then truly nothing matters because you're far too old to care. You can pretty much burn the whole world down and suffer zero consequences. This is one of the biggest downsides to letting the most old, and "wise", among us run the show. They have no incentive to help future generation or even current generations.
- schiffern 9mo agoYou're right. I should've said "Short-term Thinker Protection Agency." The old truism remains true today. A society becomes great when old men plant trees to cast shade they will never sit in.
