Thu Mar 19 20:23:52 2020 <6707bcd9> See I think that’s the point of penalizing bailouts <6707bcd9> It incentivizes companies to save and hedge for downturn, instead of doing stock buybacks

Thu Mar 19 19:11:42 2020 <9e126bf3> absolutely. Same for individuals. But neither individuals nor companies are incentivized to save and hedge for downturn. The ones that do always win
