Myopia is going to kill everything.

Definitely agree. That's the entire global capitalist platform, with the last ~50 years dialing that mentality up to 11. Profits today above everything else. Publicly traded corporations will be one of the primary causes that leads to downfall of everything (and yes, I realize they're not the only problem plaguing our society and environment, but they're a damn big one).

    My workplace stock price plunged 80% when the earnings report was lower than previous year. Not loosing money, but earned slightly less than previous year.

    A company that makes hundreds of millions in revenue, every single year for decades, had a single year where the revenue decresead ever so slightly, not even close of going into red numbers.

    Stock market is the most irrational thing
