@Nigel_Purchase hmmmm….wonder what it is a necessity for. What is the goal that we must, of necessity, endure a crashed economy?

@DanOMENSIGIL @Nigel_Purchase Disaster Capitalism.
Just because the peons are starving, does mean the rich have troubles. Actually it means it's sales time for all the tasty bits of the American economy that normally would be too expensive to be attractive.

Note Musk won't be experiencing any hardships! But he will be laughing at you while you do!

@Yuki @Nigel_Purchase Musk COULD face hardship if the people who treat him like a VIP in various services stop doing so. These destructive narcissistic billionaires etc. are so addicted to privilege. They aren't emotionally equipped to handle queueing, even. Healthcare is one place which really shows that up. I recall one having a hissy fit because their helicopter couldn't land and driving took time. Rude and pathetic.

Fight back. Boycott #Tesla. Tell everybody to switch from #Xitter to #Mastodon or #Bluesky. Make him pay.

This is temporary hardship kind of like temporary inflation, or temporary great depression.
The ultrarich are ecstatic over the idea because it’s in financial and economic crisis that they consolidate their ownership of property as well as trapping millions of people in debt peonage.
Economic crisis is an opportunity for them to enslave populations.

»Anything that you lose on the tariff from the perspective of the consumer, you gain in higher wages, so you’re ultimately much better off,” he told NBC’s Meet the Press this summer.«

»Trump has proposed a 20 percent tariff on all imported goods…«
Which seems to indicate they already chose even more drastic tariffs (25%).

@Nigel_Purchase Normal governments warn of "temporary hardship" because of measures like austerity they are going to take to attempt to save the economy and try to stop it collapsing.
(Not arguing for austerity, just pointing out that governments generally aren't deliberately trying to destroy their own economy.)

@Nigel_Purchase And not just the domestic economy. The world could enter a depression, or a complete collapse where money has no value.

The super rich love, economic calamities because they can buy up property for pennies on the dollar. I forget who became insanely wealthy for that exact reason over the great depression. It might’ve been Mellon

You have to time your liquidity. Or fake it. :) This can work for penny-ante riche as well. That's why people flip houses, buy at garage sales and sell on eBay, etc.
