One sober man

From the 50s to the early 70s, the big three automakers were running on alcohol, not gasoline. By all accounts their top execs were falling-down drunk all the time, making uninhibited random bad decisions and generating stupid ideas which were forced on their companies.

Mormon Romney was the only sober man in the industry, and Nash/AMC rose to join the big three around 1960. Rambler beat Plymouth in sales. In ’62 Romney was talked into politics, ran for Mich governor, and cleaned up the state just as he had done for the auto industry. After he was gone AMC declined fast, no longer sober.

Now, by all accounts the Big X tech tyrants are zombied out on all sorts of weird drugs. LSD, meth, mushrooms, probably some Deepstate secrets developed by the perpetual MKUltra. Many leading writers and podcasters are also zombied on the same mix of psychedelics. The tech tyrants are making uninhibited STUPID decisions with no logic and forcing their companies to go along. Xlon is the worst, but Zuck is close behind.

I don’t see One Sober Man in this mess. Could a solidly sane man force sanity on the Big X in the same way that Romney forced sanity on the Big Three?

I guess Jerome Powell fills the bill. He’s not exactly inside the tech biz, but he’s in charge of the counterfeit press that was FEEDING the stupid and murderous ideas. After he turned off the press in late 2021, the STUPID ideas have been fading out. Powell’s sobriety is having wider effects now, as both Dimon and Fink are pulling away from Gaian genocide.
