When profit is the only motivation, greed destroys the product.

See the results of any Vulture Capital buyout of functional companies like Toys R Us, And countless others.

When profit is the only motivation for a company to exist, nothing good happens. This is true at "news" organizations and Aircraft manufacturers.

Profit needs to be secondary to the product.

Good profit folllows good product.

Healthcare and journalism, should not be driven by profit at all.

Here's a take that I find fun.

"The world seems to have a finite amount of intelligence.

The population keeps growing.

Do the math."

I'm not afraid. I say it all the time. But it's like I'm talking to the clouds.

Most people you know are probably dumber than you, the rest of them are dumber than that.

The willful ignorance and lack of curiosity of most people will be the ruin of society.

Such a great movie! I recently re-watched it myself with my teenage sone and my parents.

@maya4rights.bsky.social , I feel like I'm missing something. The only thing that may be insightful for some folks is that Trump supporters vote for "Trump" not necessarily "Republicans".

Politics has always been a popularity contest.

Does anyone "popular" but not selfish want to be president?

Also, as a car guy, malls are perfect for this because they have ample space for parking.

Also as it regards citys, towns, etc, why is there so much resistance to making shopping malls into multi user locations that involve commerce as well as entertainment and housing?

"Neighborhoods" where people can work, play, and shop within walking distance are awesome.

I would binge watch this if it were a series and beg for more.

Sesame Street becoming homeless was predictable when they moved off PBS.

Time to go back to PBS.
