    This is exactly what I’m talking about what I say I fucking hate capitalism.

    Apple already make more money than just about anyone else in the world, but because shareholders expect infinite unending YoY growth they’re not allowed to just keep making billions of dollars. Every year senior management have to find new ways of bilking more cash than the year before, otherwise they’ll get replaced by someone who will.

      yep

      I don’t have much against small scale capitalism - the kind your neighbour likes because his brother works hard to run a business

      but mega corp infinite growth — fuuuuuuck that shit, that’s a cancer
