Well, I don't think people generally think that literally anymore. Nowadays what it ends up meaning is that if the company is such a monolith central to modern life, it can make the stupidest decisions imaginable and simply be "propped up" by sucking money out of our pockets.
Less "They're too big to fail" and more "They won't let it fail, even if it should."
this is also very true.
i do believe that the pendulum swings back and forth but at the moment it’s swinging in the direction of people who are inherently selfish (amongst many other things)
I disagree. I think it's been that way the past 10+ years, but now that we're seeing the repercussions of that it might finally swing back the other way
