He extends the too-big-to-fail idea to Wall Street's revolving door with government, then imagines a merged media giant funding absurd 'social justice' projects like an 'Emmett Till on Ice' show while firing employees.
- Banks became too big to fail, so they do whatever they want and pay fines without consequence.
- Goldman Sachs and the Treasury Department operate as a revolving door, with executives moving between them to create favorable laws.
- Massive conglomerates tell everybody to fuck off because they're too big to fail and own everything.
- NBC Universal owns theme parks, television stations, and a movie studio, making money everywhere and not relying on any single revenue stream.
- Tim describes how a massive entertainment company could indulge its obsession with social justice by producing something like Emmett Till on Ice.
- Companies only survive by becoming so big that they can afford to produce prestigious projects alongside commercially questionable ones.
- The goal of corporate mergers is to eliminate people while keeping the valuable assets and intellectual property.
- Tim acts out firing employees immediately after a successful acquisition, telling them to leave and get ketamine therapy to reset.
