I think the even more productive conversation is centered around how these consulting firms (Deloitte, BCG, Bain, etc etc) have become giant black holes, sucking in massive amounts of hyper talented and competent people.

And then they have them building spreadsheets about how to more “economically” provide a product that was/is literally killing Americans at scale.

It’s part of a larger conversation that’s difficult to have, but I think is largely true: managerial and financial capitalism has been a complete disaster.
