    They keep adding debt because it keeps their stock price up because people have bought the story that once they get big enough they will be too big to die....they have sold a story that Netflix is like Amazon...that spending like Amazon is good for the long term....adding debt for content is registered as progress on the plan.

    The opposite is true, they are adding debt that they will never pay off in part because they are buying crap, because they will end up bankrupt, and their library will be valued at a fraction of that Netflix claims its value is.

    Those who buy late will lose almost everything.

    Ponzi Scheme.
    This illegal illegitimate regime that runs America is at fault...not me.... they do not represent me and I have long objected to their crimes against humanity.

    Not my problem. I pay my money and have streaming access same as other streaming services.

    Long-term, I don't see how Netflix competes with behemoths like Amazon, Apple, and Disney. It's #1 show ended (and controversially, because of Spacey), and its other best performers were Marvel products. If it can survive on Seinfeld reruns, I will be impressed.

    Easy, asshole. Nobody's planning to shut down your precious Netflix. We're simply enjoying their dip in business.
    Free speech is cool as long as it jibes with our program.
