@urlyman @ChrisMayLA6 Also, consumer buying power is at such a miserably low level that whether or not you consume some specific good has very little do with whether it gets produced. Empty planes flew back and forth all through the pandemic. New, never worn clothes get dumped en masse in deserts and river deltas. AI tech firms build new fossil fuel plants to power features that no one wants and no one pays for, on the off chance that they get a monopoly of some sort that they can exploit.
