I'm sorry, what the feck does "value creation" mean here? I live in a place where people are so, insanely squeezed from every angle. Wages are stagnant, prices rocketing. Where is the money to pay for this value going to come from?

No one I know feels richer than they did a decade back. I've not been able to meaningfully put up my prices for a decade. People are tired and stressed and scared, particularly scared of a technology everyone keeps telling them will make them redundant.

There is no rising tide lifting all boats, just most of us drowning whilst a few whizz past in their yachts.

I honestly hope these guys faceplant ASAP. Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of people.
