@AstroFox_Dev @RappyGrinder @Pirat_Nation A restaurant has many customers for a reason, and thats because the food is good. Why would I spend money at a restaurant that offers poor food when I could spend it at a restaurant that offers good food?

@RappyGrinder @Pirat_Nation Do you also think that every restaurant that has many customers is a very good restaurant and every closed one just made shit?

A man named Max made his very first video game all by himself, called Sledding Game. It sold 100,000 copies in only 5 days on Steam after its Early Access release and received very good reviews with a 97% Overwhelmingly Positive rating. Sledding Game is a multiplayer game where lots of people play together in the snow. There are mini-games like snowball fights and making snowmen, and you can talk to friends with voice chat. After the big sales, Max wrote this: “100000!?!? CRAZY! Thank you everyone for playing. It means the world to me that I have the support to continue making games full-time off of my first game on Steam. It’s a dream to reach this large of a number and you all made it happen in 5 days. Couldn’t be more grateful.”

@ZyprexaXerox @DoogiTubeTv @catgirlprostate "the road gets fresh pavement at least once a year" The roads youre referring to arent handled by the federal government, theyre handled by local municipalities. Your comparison doesnt work. Want local taxes to be spent on sidewalks? Vote for that then.

If we do actually get into another global quarantine y'all might wanna ban US citizens from travel to other countries cuz Trump regime isn't going to be doing any of that. They barely did it with covid and that was BEFORE they were filled with anti-science anti-vax MAGA loyalists

You guys! it does not matter if the cruise ship stays out to sea or not. A symptomatic woman flew back to Johannesburg where she herself died 3 days later. Exposing everyone on the PLANE, at the AIRPORT, the uber DRIVER, whoever to the hantavirus. IT HAS ALREADY LEFT THE SHIP.

@catgirlprostate Sidewalks are funded and handled by local taxes/municipalities, not the federal level.

@AnotherCatte @PeterccGonzalez @GeoRebekah Fuel prices were the nail in the coffin for them, but this was inevitable for them. Any company that declares bankruptcy twice in 2 years does not have favorable long term outcomes.

@PeterccGonzalez @GeoRebekah The merger would likely have saved them. The point is this happened because the current administration made choices that have negatively affected all Americans, period. More businesses will be forced to shut down. Big and small.

SPIRIT: We shut down because oil prices spiked after Trump attacked Iran. MAGA: nu uh, it was Biden and the merger. SPIRIT: No, it is because of Iran. And the judge that blocked the merger- which would make no difference here - was a Reagan appointee MAGA: FAKE NEWS!!!! What does SPIRIT know about the closure, anyways!!!! TRUMP 2028! FUCK THE CONSTITUTION!!!
NBC News@NBCNews

Spirit Airlines says in court papers that it was forced to ground its fleet for good over the weekend because "recent geopolitical events resulted in a massive and sustained increase in fuel prices." nbcnews.com/business/trave…

@GeoRebekah They declared bankruptcy twice over the last 2 years lol. Any company that does that was circling the drain. Only 2 things wouldve saved spririt, the merger, or a gov bail out.

@KotaConCarne @BussinBiotech @IamBRowe @Uncatfishable Yeah, fuel prices was the final nail. But they were headed this way regardless. They haven't made a profit in 6 years and declared bankruptcy twice in the last 2. The only way to prevent this was the merger or a gov bailout.

@captain_xe @even_steven8tht Meanwhile, I'm in Korea enjoying my affordable universal health care, low crime rate, walkable cities, highly educated population, cheap and clean public transit, and much lower gini index than the US.

It takes all of 1 minute to google jet fuel prices and see that they basically doubled since the war started in February. iata.org/en/publication… Also, when they filled for bankruptcy in 2024 there were a multitude of external and company specifc factors that contributed to it like the Pratt & Whitney turbofan engine recall on Spirit's Airbus A320neo fleet that grounded a good number of their aircraft, cutting capacity and revenue while fixed costs (leases, etc.) kept running combined with them never being able to recover to pre-pandemic revenue numbers and upcoming near term debt maturities that they couldn't meet. I don't really care about the merger one way or the other but solely blaming a singular politician like Warren for Spirit going bankrupt is a clear sign that they two party system propaganda is working where we ignore nuance and rather just be angry at a person or a party... politicians and/or judges can't predict future external shocks like engine recalls or jet fuel price spikes and probably don't opine much on how well they think a company's management can handle debt obligations, they operate mainly in a framework on whether said merger would be bad/good (monopolistic vs not-monopolistic) for the public from a competition perspective.

@IamBRowe @Uncatfishable I wonder if trump doubling the prices of fuel has more to do with them failing…

Spirit Airlines was profitable until Trump mishandled Covid resulting in five years of massive deficits. Trump put the final nail in their coffin when he invaded Iran and increased fuel cost by 70%.

@LeftyWinter Spirit hasnt been profitable in 5 years and declared bankruptcy twice in the last 2. There were heading to this outcome no matter what. Only way to "salvage" aside from the merger is a government bail out, but that doesnt solve anything, it just buys time.
