      Safe until there’s a revolt and they become the bunker bitch or in a worse case tomorrow’s dinner. You see the issue? Can’t control people with money if money no longer has value.

        of course, though i bet they’re working under the assumption that their defences are enough, or that they will be the last remaining humans out there. basically, hubris

        greed and hubris are a powerful combo, unfortunately

          Nah you need people for the transition but those are the same ex military badasses who will take control until there’s a trick or which they’re not dumb they’re expecting a trick.
