>> I'd say that this is an argument for buying farmable land - except that corporations powerful enough to have no fear of government retribution will also be able to take the resources they want, including privately owned land.

Corporations did that with the ASSISTANCE of government starting in the 60's and 70's - when the family farms were seized.

Cities, Counties, and States do it today by raising property appraisals for raw land to unbelievable levels - which forces landowners to sell to developers. ( Astronomical property taxes result in the old landowners not being able to pay the annual rental payable to the government. Ever stop to realize there really is NOT 'land ownership' any longer - one just leases from the government, with the rental payments being called 'taxes'.)

Yes - both corps and developers may be able to do it in the near future without 'government' - but why would they bother when they can already do it WITH the full co-operation of guvernment - and thus keep themselves 'legally without blame' ?

The UNHOLY TRINITY works quite well and efficiently - why would they mess with it ?

re: "Kushner said the gov't has over 6,000 data centers. They will be consolidating. Should be huge savings. But job losses, too..."

My thinking for a while has been that humanity is approaching a milestone... a bad one... a day when there will be virtually *NO* jobs available. I think it's going to happen in the next thirty years.

That means everyone will be on welfare, with government getting the money directly from corporations. Some time after that - and I'm not going to hazard a guess as to when - the corporations being taxed will decide that they don't need the government anymore and be in a position to pretty well defend themselves from it. The population will then starve.

I'd say that this is an argument for buying farmable land - except that corporations powerful enough to have no fear of government retribution will also be able to take the resources they want, including privately owned land.
