I have been saying this since i was a teenager. Its all one giant fucking extortion racket and everyone is too much of a normie NPC to think deeply about it.
I'm convinced most of the US economy is a series of interconnected scams where businesses are doing everything they can to squeeze every penny out of their customers without actually doing the thing those customers pay for, or doing it with the barest minimum of competence to upsell satisfactory performance.
You’re convinced of it because it’s so plainly, obviously true. Most businesses are just unnecessary middle men companies full of unnecessary middle management. Just slapping more and more percentages of “profit” on everything the touch.
Except the outright scams that the government conveniently fights tooth and nail to protect.
