It will infect all of our systems, and when the bubble bursts, congress will put the taxpayers on the hook for bailing the tech bros out.

They'll gut what's left of Medicare and Social Security. Many Dems will express concern, but go along cause they bought some insider hype while the tech bros had shell companies shorting the industry stocks.

The bailout will include increased residential subsidizing of data center energy usage rates. The local governors will sign on, because SCOTUS says it's okay for corporations to bribe for tax and regulatory advantage.

The taxpayers will be left holding the bag -

again.
