Is dumping an NYC trash can, taking it HOME, and LOSING YOUR JOB OVER IT the DUMBEST or MOST DISGUSTING thing ever?? As always, YES.

“The safest amount is none” is a very different statement than “there is no safe amount.” There are obviously safe amounts, as all of human history demonstrates

The SNP's newest recruit Lara Bird set tongues wagging almost as much as her head as she was sworn into parliament this week & she has plenty to say about it! #parody

The function of man is to live, not to exist

Good questions

It’s much more likely cutting USAID SAVED 4.5 million kids lives by no longer funding the dozens of USAID-funded civil wars that had been raging across Africa, Central Asia, LatAm and beyond.

Ro Khanna graduated law school in 2001. Never accomplished anything in the private sector or financially. Gets elected to Congress in 2016. Now Ro is on track to becoming a billionaire just from his wizard-like stock trading skills. Amazing how these genius stock traders seem to be 'created' right after they get elected to federal office.

Absolutely. This is a total lie. All DOGE did was require contact with the aid recipients to confirm that funds were being used legitimately. Anything less than this is insane! Multiple people from USAID have been charged by the Justice Department with stealing money. Moreover, they pled GUILTY!! justice.gov/opa/pr/usaid-o…

@austin_rief all-time indeed :-)

Friedberg hit Ro Khanna with an all-time ratio.

@cb_doge Yes

@LozzaFox True

On Father’s Day, remember why you exist.

Babe, wake up… Friedberg is destroying socialists again.

David Friedberg: It's not rich vs poor, it's makers vs takers. @friedberg: “ The great lie is that there are two sides to society, that is the rich and the poor. And the great truth is that there are two sides that are the makers and the takers. The lie is that the rich are unfairly rich and the poor are unfairly poor, and therefore, the poor must take from the rich. But the truth is that it's the takers that tell you that lie, that the real truth is that artists, plumbers, electricians, woodworkers, computer scientists, people that build, people that make from all walks of life, all income levels, all wealth brackets, are the makers. And the takers are what Sacks calls this intelligentsia, the analysts, the espousers, the armchair mechanics, the critics, the commentators, the politicians. They are the takers. They are the people that watch the rest of society make stuff, build stuff, specifically doing things that create value for other people in society. That's what a maker is.”

@RoKhanna @friedberg @rokhanna have you ever made or built anything? Can you summarize the amount you have created, vs the amount you have taken, enabled taking, amd are proposing taking, from people who actually did something. Also, how is socialism and communism aka "taking", working....

This is just intellectual nonsense @friedberg and wouldn't get a passing grade at a place like University Chicago in a freshman seminar. You know that. I can't believe you are defending without a shred of introspection the unfair and lopsided economy where nearly 80 percent of Americans believe the American dream is dead, but 19 billionaires are worth as much as 12 percent of our GDP (three times the concentration of the gilded age). It's a comparison, and I get the difference between stock and flow. Do you not believe that there must be some democratic check on "blind economic forces" and "blindly selfish men" seeking to hoard this nation's wealth and power. There must be some check to rampant speculation, monopolization, and war profiteering where the capital class builds fortunes in its sleep, but nurses, teachers, doctors, firefighters, carpenters, HVAC technicians who work long days can't afford to even buy a house. I am for a free enterprise system that works for hard working men and women in every part of America, not just the connected and privileged. I am for a patriotic capitalism, instead of an extractive capitalism. I celebrate entrepreneurs and those that build businesses. I am absolutely not for taking away their property or having the government control their business. A private sector is necessary to be a free society so that government does not control every aspect of our life. But men should not be allowed to buy politicians with their wealth and skew the laws in their favor. They should not be allowed to evade justice as we saw with the Epstein class. They should pay a fair tax before they die, like ordinary Americans do, so that every American can have the basic necessities of healthcare and education. There are many business leaders who still believe in the social contract and recognize their obligations to their employees, to the community, to their customers, and to our nation. I call them economic patriots. The problem is with arrogance of those billionaires who believe they are better than us, that they are entitled to rule, that somehow they are better allocators of capital than the American people. Really? The American people who defeated Nazism and communism, funded the Moon landing and creation of the internet, and who have built the greatest economic engine the world has seen. I want an America where every has the chance to build wealth, where the political opinion of a billionaire does not matter more than that of a nurse, and where the success of our business leaders leads to the success of all Americans. When young people start cheering prominent business leaders, you will know we are headed in that direction. Right now they are being booed, not by politicians, but by an entire generation that feels forsaken.

@friedberg @RoKhanna @sama Go @friedberg go go!!

I would like to see you make a voluntary contribution of 5% of your family’s $200M net worth to the government for important healthcare, childcare, and jobs. Don’t worry, it’s just one-time. Your $10M contribution will provide free childcare for over 1,000 California kids for a year! Once you’ve made your personal contribution to a more just and equitable society, I’ll support all your other asset seizure ideas. But you gotta go first…

@PeterDiamandis Agree! Live your dreams now. We can do things we couldn't do before ...

The stories we tell about the future shape the future we build. Right now, most sci-fi is dystopian. That's a problem. We need more visions of abundance, not collapse. #futurevisionxprize

My team is talking about spreading optimistic futures through sci-fi at Cannes Lions this week. Read this thread if you'll be in town. 🧵
