  Thank god! Enough Medea, already! I chalk this up as a win for humanity.

    Sure, but think about all of the jobs that won't exist because this studio isn't being expanded, well beyond just whatever shows stop being produced. Construction, manufacturing, etc. Edit: Also this doesn't mean less medea, just less actual humans getting paid to make medea or work adjacent jobs

      Not like there's nothing else to construct. Maybe it's time to construct some (high[er] density) housing where people want to live? No? Okay, then maybe next decade ... but then let's construct transport for them so they can get to work, how about some new subway lines? Ah, okay, not that either. Then I guess the only thing remains to construct is all the factories that will be built as companies decouple from China.
