They’d make even more if they paid everyone a thriving wage. They have multiple studies from at least the '70s proving that they’d profit even more, which makes sense since we’d be buying more. They want to see people suffer, and have figured out that we are actually post scarcity, so people will never have to needlessly suffer again, once we fix the inequality. The cruelty is the point, because they know it’s on its last legs, unless they destroy the world.
But where profit for our overlords ?

can you link some links for this?
I used to be able to, sadly my Google-fu has completely failed me in the last year
huh, I also feel like google got worse. Is that actually true? (let me google that real quick xd: one interesting result)
Sad part is that it is tax dollars.
