Ought to be good for about a 2 billion loss on that `ol IRS form.
It will make Richard Simmons look like the Terminator.

When William H. “Boss” Hoover began operating what would eventually become known as the Hoover Company in 1908, his family had already operated a tannery in this Stark County town for nearly a century. Hoover’s vacuum cleaner business grew exponentially in the next ten years, but Hoover himself never lived further than two miles from the factory he built in his hometown.
Hoover knew the people who worked for him. He saw them in the factory. As a former door-to-door salesman, he intimately knew his sales force, and the people — or the kind of people — who bought his vacuum cleaners. His six children went to school with his employees’ children. The families often sat in pews across from each other in the same congregation. In short, Hoover was as culturally connected to his employees and his early customers as they were to him.
The Hoover Company’s advertisements appealed to the principles and experiences that unite us. It was an ethos that worked for a wide variety of brands and that stood the test of time until at least the late 1970s, when consolidation of big national brands began.
By the 1980s, Hoover had been swallowed up in a series of big corporate takeovers and purchases, and by the 2000s, the last man working for the company here in North Canton had turned out the lights. They’d been bought by a global company headquartered in Hong Kong.
Rarely today are owners of national brands a “local” man or woman who built it from the ground up. Instead, companies tend to be owned by funds and conglomerates with boards of directors who live in coastal centers of wealth and power. And the worldview of these owners is disconnected from the people who buy their products.
This shift is increasingly apparent

So much moola, so little brain. 😵
Indeed.
So sick of Cuban, and his big st00pit mouth.
Who cares what that jerk Cuban has to say?
Yeah, Mark, how did that Kyrie Irving trade work out for ya? Bwahahahahaha!
It’s a hostage video. Mark Cuban is ownmed.
Black Rock and onlt a couple other investment firms (Think: the people who invest your 401K money and handle pension funds) hold trillions of dollars in capital investments. These 2-5 companis sit on 25% of the boards of all major companies. They are in charge and they insist on a high DSG score before they will work with you..
If you don’t parrot the ‘woke’ line’ you will lose out on capital. You won’t get investments in your company. You may be canceled.
Trust me, Target and AB are not necessarily going woke because they want to. They are going woke because they have to.....or else. One day each one of us might need to go woke as a condition of our employment or to maintain our mortgage.
These are weird times.
Cuban’s an ass. He’d steal his grandmother’s purse if he was around when she passed.
Why is it that billionaires and politicians and most of the media seem to be the only ones touting the “advantages” of wokeness?
Time to destroy his basketball team next.
You’re still paying attention to pro sportyball?
Damn it they want your 401K plan funds anyway they can regulate that.
Mark Cuban likes portray himself as an Everyman, a great guy who always behaves ethnically and got to the top by honest effort.
Uh, no. Mark Cuban always puts Mark Cuban first. He will say and do whatever is best for Mark Cuban. Period. End of story.
His team wasn’t woke. His no. 1 player was white when they were good, and their no. 1 player now is white.
The Mavericks cut a good Turkish Muslim player - just because he criticized China.

Definitely not...I am not one who needs bread or circuses.
Ever gone to a Mavericks game?
If you have your face was imaged and put in to a database then attached to a lot of other aggregated data so MC can have a file on you.

And one step further back are the government bureaucrats who decide whether or not the investment firms get the huge government employee pension fund business. They are on Team Wokey Doke too.
