china changed the colors so when a stock went down it was green and if it went up it was red. a wall of green, a very healthy economy that Works and is not clearly a sham

there was an image that went around last time china's stock market decided to stocks could only go up up up and the government just kept telling people that everything was going to be fine, and enabled people to invest more and more. eventually this led to basically everybody and their cousin being intimately involved with stocks, and thus making god awful decisions en masse

Let me rephrase it. Even in crazy neoliberal minds there is an advantage in privatization for society in many industries that shouldn't be. Such as how a fully privatized school system would in theory lead to my competition thus improved teaching skills. But what exactly is the theory for privatized water? What competition could there possibly be? It's loving water.

Don't overthink it, the theory is that the person who owns the water can make a lot of money.

here's the theory behind privatized water: politician: "if i sell off national infrastructure to private interests, i get a massive kickback from them" multinational: "if we buy off politicians to sell off an entire aquifer, we can make bank off hiking the cost of it to human fleshlings, which need water to live, and will therefore be forced to pay any price we demand"

Step 1: Get rights to all water reserves in a region Step 2: Package and resell your water, litigate anyone that tries to touch your supply Step 3: Profit
