Huh. What's your opinion on the current financial crises where companies that are over decades old don't have more than a week in emergency funds before they have to go bankrupt, lay off most of their employees, can't afford mortgage payments, etc? Did they all know what they were doing?

They didn't get to choose the natural calamity which caused all this. They never planned for a global natural disaster. I didn't expect them to because there was no reason to.

IA got to choose to do this.
