Now, that is some breathtaking symbolism.

Maybe, if literature teachers used this instead of red door, more people would understand the impact of it.

@LukeAlmighty @NEETzsche the system is designed around textbook scams that are bound to fail from the beginning. they appear good early but create crises later. the scammers are politicians with limited terms and no accountability as bureaucracies are independent. because they're mandatory and have no opt out they create dependence. societal time preference for the moment increases and the economy becomes extractative, liberties are eroded.

The printer is one thing, but:
Stock market is a pyramid. Retirement funds are a pyramid. ESG is a pyramid supporting a pyramid. Most small businesses are a small pyramids, and most tech startups are industrial scale pyramids.

So, it seems, that modern industries are 10% about production, and 90% about just promising a return on pyramids.

The economy is nothing but pyramid schemes all the way to the top, isn't it?
