In my lifetime, I've seen so many industries ruined by consolidation into publicly traded companies. All of us indirectly benefit, I suppose, at least all of us who have retirement plans, but the largesse at the top and the obsessive focus on short-term gains and stock price and growth has ruined us.
AI is the next big wave.
I long for small companies providing us what we eat, what we wear, what we enjoy.
