but when you add an ever increasing profit margin on the top of everything that (you very correctly stated) affects the price of literally everything else then it's just not sustainable.
Business models really aren't, because they always assume an increasing profit. !0% a year or anything, just doesn't add up. The only reason they can survive is through innovation, but things like power companies and banks don't change, they are like a static suck, but still looking to make additional percentage every year for growth.
The power companies get money from the government for building new infrastructure, but not for maintaining current infrastructure,
It is a scam, isn't it? Always having more money coming in, never having to build well and maintain.
America is such a bad richest country in the world.
Do you ever wonder how it is a superpower at all?
Hahaha, I CONSTANTLY wonder how the US is a superpower.
I truly think that the US created systems and processes purely to be different from established British/European systems and not because they found actual better ways to do things.
The privatization of so many of these institutions is such a scam, that ends up costing taxpayers so much more financially, and additionally causes more harm and death. So many of these situations are almost perfect examples of the worst way to do things.
