I see this and it immediately makes me think about how people act as if they’re “Mr Amazing Morals No Do Evil” all the time. When in the exact same situations with the exact same amount of money they’d be just as corrupt. If not more evil. Yes it’s entirely possible for an insanely rich person to not be corrupt and evil but realistically it’s near impossible to get “rich” (as in billions or hundreds of millions) without doing objectively bad things to people / the world. They try to put themselves in situations where they’re “The Luckiest” and are going to invest in stocks or have an insane crypto year that’ll never happen just to try and justify the fact they wouldn’t be evil. ……………They would.
Watching the smartereveryday videos about manufacturing in America makes me think the real problem is not just in companies seeking profit above everything else. People do the same thing. We like to put all the blame on greedy companies when we’re just as greedy.
For example no one wants to become a tool and die operator like in the video, because you’re never going to get rich from it. I guess this is just called deindustrialization.
