The owners will do what they've been doing with our consent, or we'd have stopped them by now. They're going to keep profiting until the bill comes due, and then they'll cheat like always, this time by running away instead of with floors of tax attorneys and lobbyists capturing their own regulatory bodies, ensuring you'll bear the brunt of the consequences of their fine work.

The owner class doesn't care about their nation state of origin, or even humanity's future, only themselves and their ego scores. That's literally the sociopathic motivation our civilization rewards through the global economy that punishes pro-social vocations, and is the very reason they won.

When we're dying by the millions through starvation and constant deadly weather events, when far too late we stop making them more capital and start picking up pitchforks, they'll be underground, protected by class traitor private security, sipping exotic whiskies and irrationally placing the blame on the peasants for the fact that their favorite private resort for the rich got flattened by a CAT 6.

It will take millions of years for the Earth to recover from what we're doing in a matter of decades to make a few thousand sociopath families feel like modern Pharoahs.
