This is pretty much the crux of it. It's very similar to the strategy of undercutting a market with VC subsidies until it dies and can be replaced.

VC subsidies are no longer enough, now we need IPOs to keep it going...

An IPO and subsequent offers is hardly a temporary subsidy. That can keep going until the economy dies.

Mate, its so fucked, people are going to cry way worse than 2008.
