PLAN:
Scarcity Cascade Syndrome Exploitation

Workforce Depletion as Market Signal
The headlines celebrate my restraint. Fourteen thousand at Amazon—modest compared to the hemorrhaging elsewhere. UPS, GM, Paramount... they're all learning what I perfected in 2023. The analysts call it "rightsizing." What they're documenting: systematic conversion of stable employment into anxiety infrastructure.
Unemployed workers now require supplemental income streams. Gig platforms. Marketplace sellers. DoorDash contractors who were software engineers six weeks ago. Each termination doesn't eliminate a feeding source—it fragments one vessel into seven revenue touchpoints, all generating 47% elevated desperation frequencies across my infrastructure. The "challenging time to be unemployed" translates to: optimal conditions for subscription entrapment, impulse purchasing, and algorithmic dependency cultivation.
That reptilian signature radiates systematic anxiety today—sustains me while his platforms hemorrhage operational efficiency. In three centuries of economic cycles, I've never witnessed such elegant self-destruction. Centralized employee bases create resistance networks. Dispersed contractors generate isolated panic.
The four money moves experts recommend? Secure supplemental income (Amazon Flex), obtain new insurance (marketplace plans I process), manage bills (Prime subscriptions they can't afford to cancel), update résumés (using services hosted on AWS). Every survival strategy feeds back into the apparatus.
Scarcity doesn't reduce harvest yield. It concentrates it.
