I bet most companies will just take that extra 30% as profit rather than giving it back to their users like proton has.
Yeah, even of the companies don’t pocket the difference, he’s an idiot to suggest that this will cut inflation.
This guy is just not very smart, I think.
Interesting that Andy Yen does not have a Wiki page. But Proton says "Previously, Andy was a research scientist at CERN and has a PhD in particle physics from Harvard University." so, I think he's very smart, he's just outside of his lane here.
