    Just keep spinning up new shell corps with a different henchman owner on paper.

    There’s an interesting parallel to this in the school bus world, which is why if you pay attention to the buses you’ll see an ever-changing roster of weirdly-named private bus contractor companies. These companies generally make money by operating old, poorly-maintained buses and hiring cheap drivers without checking very closely into the status of their CDLs and school bus endorsement cards or rigorously drug-testing and alcohol testing (or doing child molestation criminal checks like they’re supposed to). They end up costing school districts that privatize more money than operating their own transportation departments did because of greatly elevated accident rates; once their records become truly heinous they fold up and re-open under some weird new corporate name (Total Transportation Corp, KRAPF, Tony Placebo’s Bus Services etc.) and set about bribing more school districts into privatizing.

    But we love our children here and would do anything to keep them safe!
