A lot of, if not most of, our modern tech economy over the last 10-15 years is all very economically nonviable. It only worked because of ZIRP and free money. It's all unsustainable and fake. It would be nice to get back to an economy based in reality, but that would undo all the "progress" we made since the dotcom bust and 2008 crash. Can't let that happen, so we'll probably keep the coke fueled party going so the crash will happen when it's somebody else's responsibility.
