That is an ongoing process, but it looks much different from what you imagine. Even now, a large part of the economy is working for the top 10 percent, producing luxury goods and services. Wealthy customers provide the biggest margins for companies.

“Regular” customers are getting more irrelevant every day. There was a time when your role as a consumer was important for the economy. This role gave you power and influence because companies were competing for your money. This era is slowly coming to an end, something most people haven’t realized yet.

Recently requested my data from Amazon. I received gigabytes worth of audio files of Alexa commands that I said. You can hear my voice, sometimes music in the background, I even found my previous girlfriend setting timers with Alexa. Years of my life. It’s genuinely unsettling.

Ah, The Orb, absolute classic. Sometimes people would get out of their cars to check out our contraption. Their abandoned cars would be found weeks later in the old creek. Good old times.

My renter complained that her dishwasher was broken. Bought her a new dishwasher. Complaints stopped because dishwasher works.
