like if you want to make slop you can go make slop but we still we still want to create another alternative but if everyone if everyone's just making trash then that's all you have to consume is trash again and thinking about something like another episode we did on problem areas we were talking about school lunch and something that always stood out to me was that
school lunch, like most schools, they have these outside companies like Aramark that just bring in like frozen square pizza and all this stuff and the food that kids hate.
The amount of money it costs to use a company like Aramark, one of these third party companies and the amount of money it would cost to actually have kitchens where you had people making food is the same.
It literally is the same amount of money.
That enough people have just bought into doing it that it's the easier thing to do.
When you're talking about public schools, you're getting money for every kid who is going to take lunch.
You get money.
And so if all your students are taking school lunch...
then you get money for that.
That's the pot you get.
And so it's not like Aramark outbid cafeteria workers.
It was just that, all right, it's just cheaper to get frozen pizza than it is to pay Stan and Jennifer and all these other people.
But there are school districts in Minneapolis, for instance, they have a public-private partnership with local farms.
Yeah, and local farms provide the read the crops and food for the schools and then they have cafeteria workers who make the food and it costs the exact same as It would cost to just use Aramark, but it's better for the economy.
It's better for local farmers it's better for local workers and yet
the reason that Aramark succeeds is that Aramark can say, hey, a hundred other school districts have us.
And so when I look at what these AI companies are doing, it feels very similar that they just wanna be able to say, Sony uses us, Universal uses us.
When I look at the state of capitalism today, it is one where
We are constantly looking to not create collaboration, but compete in these very cannibalistic ways.
Here's my last shitty example for the day, but it speaks, I think, hopefully it'll dovetail with all this stuff.
