Green Franklin's Infamous $C Pitch

$ANDYCROTCH FILES_002

This document is part of The $andycrotch Files, prepared by Sasha Stein-Garde.

Editor’s Note:

Agent Park obtained this memo during a raid on the Crotch Foundation’s Kenwood offices. It was Green Franklin's original 1 page pitch to SchmucksCap, written while she was still pursuing her PhD in Economics at the University of Chicago.

Reading it now makes my skin crawl. The seeds of everything that happened are right here in black and white. Watch how she frames basic human decency as "friction" to be eliminated. Notice that casual reference to "edges" where normal markets won't go. Everything that turned $andycrotch from rideshare competitor to murder marketplace is spelled out in startup speak, written with the breezy confidence of someone who thinks "disrupting" the taxi industry and enabling contract killings are basically the same thing.

Franklin vanished before she could see her vision fully realized. But I saw it. I saw what happens when you strip away all those "parasitic intermediaries" she sneers at. I saw what her perfect market looks like when it's painted in blood.
