      Our @dee_bosa reports on WeWork's just-posted Q1 results. The company reported a $2.1 billion net loss and 29% decline year-over-year in memberships. "This does tell us that there's a long ways to go," says Bosa. pic.twitter.com/nyJge87XHS

      A quarter of WeWork's loss came from paying Adam Neumann half a BILLION dollars to stay away from the place for a year. They also paid him $50 million on top of that to not work anywhere else. That's puzzling. You'd think they'd want the guy hired sequentially by every competitorpic.twitter.com/dDyrE6d5Zh

      WeWork will be paying Adam Neumann about $57,000 an hour to stay away from its board for a year. I can save them millions by staying away from their board for a much lower rate, for as long as they want. Call me.

      Capitalism requires a feedback mechanism that punishes people for throwing gargantuan sums of money on a transparently foolish idea. But when the asset bubble is so big that investor money has outlet, you get phenomena like WeWork. No one involved will be deterred from anything

      The main crisis in capital today is where to put it all. The simplistic answer (just distribute some of the glut to everyone) seems to be working a lot better than traditional forms of investment. But why capital is so constipated that it can't connect to production mystifies me

      Unlike many people, I see capitalism more of a glorified lifehack than a worldview. You reward individual greed when the greedy person makes stuff a lot of people want or need, and it works. But today that profit motive is aligned with extracting investment, not making stuff

      Why this constipated capital just sloshes around, with investors increasingly desperate to allocate it, while the physical world around us stagnates and wages are low, remains a mystery to me. America used to be good at this kind of thing!

      I wish I had a @matthewstoller-like Big Theory about this glut (everything is monopoly!), but I don't. What changed after 2008 to kill innovation and real investment dead?

          Maybe because investment increasingly consists of essentially fun money from the hyper-wealthy investor class? If your goal is "jackpot" rather than "returns", you'd rather spin the wheel on dumb startups than build new stuff.

          BECAUSE of the buildup. If you used that money to start building a product for real money someone else would use another part of that moolah, times 1000x, to create a “disruptive” system selling the same thing but with a Pom Pom on it at a 70% loss, bankrupting you. #barelyjoking

          smh at @Pinboard, who still thinks "infrastructure" is a useful thing that you build, and not an expansion of entitlement spending and a mandatory union dues deduction for everyone who gets money to take care of a grandparent

          — mind you, this may still be better than the last stimulus when they had people deliberately trying to make the things they were building more expensive, that they might cost more money.

          because regulatory delay. — not that the regulators say "no." and not that the regulators said, "mitigate this environmental impact." it'd at least be finite and knowable. the real problem is when regulators and lawsuits leave a project in limbo for years before they say yes
