Game Theory:
Let's say you're a CEO of a large corporation. Who do you support?
1. Biden, and he wins, you gain almost nothing,
2. Biden, and he loses, you are now on a hit list,
3. Trump, and he loses, you gain almost nothing,
4. Trump, and he wins, you gain a huge amount.
CEO's don't give a fuck about Democracy.
i agree. but, are some of them smart enough to see that what they think they're gonna gain from tfg is a phantasm?
they really have no idea what that'll mean for the world. really.
they think they'll have powa?
illusion, and it'll be too late to say no way.
I asked a business man about election results, do you make more money if this guy wins instead of that guy? He said it made no difference to their company. They would just adjust what they were doing and keep on making money.
I could see this. In a field, or a industry that is not heavily regulated, or about to be heavily regulated.
I don't know what his field was but do know he worked in DC.
@corlin CEOs recognize incompetence, and understand the corrosive effects that can accrue over time when policy is made without regard to established, time-tested standards of operation. COOs, and CFOs also deeply understand this. Trump is a chaos agent. In the short term, there may be targeted gains for some companies, but competent leadership should always choose political policy makers that follow predictable, steady paths.
@corlin I prefer to think of Trump as the blonde in the room that nobody goes home with.
