shit i just realized their strategy, they're basically trying to make infrastructure by hawking radiation! make a landscape devoid of infrastructure (by austerity and/or bombing), wait for virtual infrastructure pairs to pop out of the vacuum, bomb it again in the hope that you get half of them and their pairs stick around.

The ideal business under capitalism has no product and hires no employees. Just hoard as many resources, then sit on and do nothing with them as they increase in value.

entire floors are still empty 5 years after opening.
