Corporations are betting on long-term investments, taking short-term losses while being bailed out by their allies in government.
REASON: They will replace you with bots and robots. Therefore, the potential rewards in the long run will far exceed whatever was lost, by a factor of 100 or more. Besides the upper class knows we are about to shift from a fiat currency to a social credit based one.
The useless credits will be for the previous worker class to keep them obedient. We will have resources and "labor" as our currency. Robots, minerals, gold, you get the point.
