at the rate they're building these things, either they're getting severe kickbacks or someone has the goods on them. I'm not seeing any other justification for building them so insistently.

    Nah, they're addicted to being first and everyone's running this race so you gotta race faster than them. They know a collapse is coming, but those only affect poors and the collapse will make subsequent investing much cheaper.

    If you're thinking about consequences, you're not doing capitalism well enough to be on top anyways.
