And.. . . how many fed employees have been laid off and how much does the "ceo" of the US gov't make?

Actually we have no idea how much grift he's taken in this year alone.

@rbreich

This is why I'm waiting for my CEO Hunting License

@rbreich 82.000 layoffs

Probably 80.000 guns

As ceo i would be worried

@rbreich Replace CEOs with some A.I. chatbots and some interns to run them. Save big time.

@rbreich I feel that "rigged" unfairly credits those that abuse the system with being smart enough to have rigged it. It's just a flawed system.

We need a better pathway for the mega rich to pay back into society of their own accord. Tax doesn't work, they evade. Giving to charity and EA seem great, but there ought to be an even better system. Many would not share their $, but I feel like a bunch would, if the system was solid, and if they had the option to show off about it

Or we train crows.

@rbreich

Amazon, UPS, and Intel are conducting layoffs for very specific reasons.

To cut fixed costs, like payroll, so they can cater to Wall Street demanding AI adoption, despite its very high failure rate.

This may be a first.

Hiding catastrophic losses on a doomed-to-failure speculative initiative like AI, just because the people who own or buy your stock have ordered an energy hog be placed on your books.
Or else.

Dumb.

Tens of thousands of layoffs are being blamed on AI. What are companies actually getting?

Large U.S. companies are pointing to AI to justify job cuts. But some experts question whether AI is cover for more traditional business challenges.

@Npars01 @rbreich the system is killing itself. I won't miss it

@k1000 @rbreich

More & more the AI stock market bubble resembles a mafia extortion scheme.

It's not the 1st time the stock markets have ordered layoffs to cover losses in profitable companies, after they took #PrinceBonesaw's investment money.

Companies forced to adopt money-losing AI initiatives, then ordered to do mass layoffs to cover those losses...

Jeff Bezos makes his most ghoulish deal yet

How long after a nation-state murders one of your columnists is it appropriate to make a multibillion-dollar deal with it? For Bezos: five years.

@rbreich Greed indeed... their leaders are so damn arrogant to think they have the right to do that whether they have the power or not.

Their morals must be non-existent.

@rbreich Now figure what the owners get.
@rbreich UPS? At the beginning of the holidays?!?
@rbreich and stock goes up... wow

Despite what Amazon wrote in their emails firing their employees,
#Greed is not a culture! Greed us a mental illness!

I wonder if those #layedoff people will ever vote #maga again.

@rbreich Ask Brian Thompson what "Tango Down" means. When he was taken out right out in open daylight in NYC, it scared the crap out of many other CEO's. It also forced United Healthcare to cover procedures they normally refused, saving hundreds maybe thousands of lives.

In other words, a lot of people are alive today BECAUSE United Healthcare lost a CEO.

Maybe the real reason the CEO class is backing so many open Nazis is they are trying to keep the necks out of the public guillotine?
