It is supply and demand. That doesn't change.
And yeah, the system is still broke. Money trickles up to the giants.

The system gets what it was designed to do.

Also at the very most basic essence of life resources naturally accumulate.
Got food? Get bigger. Get more food easier than the starving guy next to you.
Have expendable income? Invest. Get more expendable income than the poor family subsisting.

If said consolidation is a threat to the system, and I would argue that it is, you need a mechanism to deconsolidate that centralization of profit and liquidity. Sooooo wut do?

I think the answer is probably a combination of rooting out rent seeking behavior, and shutting off the government printing press that allows the collection of money to occur.

Actual history:

Elon, great job on getting Teslas made. We'll give you X dollars to deliver this many Teslas by this date and if the share price is this high.

*Delivers Teslas with shitty parts not made to previous standard, actual home depot scraps, fucked up paint, and promises to fix it all at a later date. Gets SEC investigated for manipulating stock prices via twitter shitposting*

Good Job Elon, here's your bonus for meeting all the metrics technically despite not doing it on merit of the product.

If I wanted this kind of unwarranted abuse, instead of posting here I can just stay home and talk to my wife.

You guys do need to raise your minimum wage. I know that hurts your feelings.

We don't pay anyone close to minimum.

I did find out my nephew is being paid $9.20/hr
I told him minimum in Ohio is $9.30

He got all mad and is going to demand a $0.10/hr raise, and also ask for back-pay. He's all excited.

Probably gonna get fired. Haha.
