We have all scars from fighting and betting against banks and governments, because we know better. But the system will make us or break us, as it makes dumb people look smart, and makes smart people look dumb.
Even dumb impractical Industries like solar wind and EV car industries look smart with the media help, and smart useful practical manufacturing and productions industries looked dumb, as they got shut them down here with dumb regulations and move the industries off shore.
Lately its the old smart Chips factory owner that used to be produced here, but gov’t incentives made the owner look dumb to produce them here. So away they went. But reality is returning because all the nonsense is causing them a lot trouble.
In time, for example, the smart looking solar panel and EV guys that look smart today will look dumb when those businesses start failing without incentives.
