Amazon CEO Andy Jassy is right: Big businesses need fewer people

So if you need fewer people, what will CEOs manage?  Do we also need fewer loud mouth CEOs?

Populist math: if every major business in the US cut 20% of staff, but CEOs were paid the same exact amount, the CEO pay ratio would go from 264:1 on average to 330:1 on average.  The total major employer employees would go from 30,085,694 to 24,068,555.  

Elon Musk has announced that we need to have more births in order to generate growth, and Andy Jassy has announced that less people should have jobs.  Maybe the two of them can start a band called “Bet You Wish You Were Rich”

U.S. Government to Take Cut of Nvidia and AMD A.I. Chip Sales to China in potentially unconstitutional arrangement

MM: Trump said they, “negotiated a little deal. So he’s selling an essentially old chip.”  The “little deal” is an extortion payment, and the “he” is Jensen Huang.  That’s FOUNDER Jensen Huang, NOT shareholders or the board.  The board is busy at happy hour - there are FIVE 1990s/00s tech and VC bros - all bros - Rob Burgess, Tench Coxe, Harvey Jones, Brooke Seawell, Mark Stevens - most of whom have been with Jensen Huang for 30 years.  Who cares about central planning US socialism when your with your bros?

PS: You think Huang regrets flip flopping and kissing Trump’s ass now?:

From 2018: US chipmaker Nvidia's founder and Chief Executive Jensen Huang said curbing China's technological development could not be achieved by adopting heavy tariffs.

From May: “Obviously, I don’t know all of his ideas, but let me tell you about two that are incredible,” answered Huang. "The first one is utterly visionary. The idea of tariffs being a pillar of a bold vision to re-industrialize to onshore manufacturing and motivate the world to invest in the United States is just an incredible vision.”

Congrats on your extortion payments!
