  • A) 1971, Economist Milton Friedman explicitly told the world the "only social responsibility" for businesses is to increase shareholder value. The Business Roundtable heartily endorsed this view, setting the stage for the next half century of villains to gleefully enrich themselves without compunction.

    B) 2019, Business Roundtable reversed their 50 year position to include that businesses should be beholden to all Stakeholders, not just shareholders.

    But of course the damage has been done, and continues onward. To compound this, the FED's open-purse monetary policy for 14 YEARS ushered in the worst inflation in 40 years, while wages have stagnated for 4 decades, kicking off around the time Baby Boomers were birthing the first Millennial children.

    These are just some of the reasons Millennials lay the bulk of culpability at the feet of Baby Boomers, who of course respond with something like: "Well, I don't remember that."

  • Trickle down was a rebrand.

    It used to be called "Horse and Sparrow economics."

    Idea being: The horses eat buckets of whole grains. And the sparrows pick their meal from the horseshit.

  • What you're describing is called "adverse selection." But it doesn't apply here.

    The internet was ruined by old fashioned greed- courtesy of said Corporates who monetized every interaction as a result of their control of two-sided networks.

    Thanks business school!

  • Not so much "the internet," as the handful of corporations that we have allowed to run rampant for 20 years. The internet used to be great.
