The most psychotic girl you know thinks she is this.



“But if you get rid of property taxes on primary residences, you’ll have to raise sales taxes!” So what? A consumption tax is always preferable to the state de facto owning your home.

A fundamental lesson from my posts these last two weeks on modernization, industrial policy, and development is that development economics should be about understanding why South Korea got rich but Bolivia did not. The current field has largely given up on that question. Sharply identified RCTs on small micro programs are a fine way to publish in the AER and get tenure at a fancy university, but a profession that knows everything about microfinance impact evaluations and almost nothing about industrialization has misallocated its own intellectual capital on a pretty heroic scale. Four images of Seoul:


The right really has no theory of mind for the elites. They don’t understand them. I don’t either tbh but by accident I happen to know quite a few wealthy kids. Brownstone in Brooklyn, house in the Hamptons AND the Maine coast types. They do the blue collar larp to mog us😂



"If Obama had spoken about his race more frequently, conservatives would not rely so heavily on the singular example. His remark about Martin being Black like him has been endlessly repeated by conservatives because it was the exception rather than the rule." Exactly.

This is my son. He is almost 16 and wants a vehicle. I refuse to buy him one and told him he needs to pay for it himself. He got a job as a rec basketball league referee and quickly realized how long it would take to save up enough money to get a $3k car making $12/hour. Then I showed him some cooler $6k options on Bring a Trailer and he got the itch to make more money. I gave him countless ideas to pursue. He wasn't feeling any of them. Then I decided to show him some podcast episodes from @mhp_guy (he's listened to some from Chris before and was a fan). No ideas were really hitting home until he heard an episode between Chris and @ShannonJean about reselling. He fell in love. So I showed him a few more and he was convinced that that was the route he should take. We started browsing B-Stock and then realized we need a state tax license and some other stuff so we got that all set up. Then we browsed some more. Endless deals. We settled on buying 115 rugs at an average of $13/rug after shipping. They're all Costco returns. Various sizes, some in better condition than others. He now has to figure out how to sell all these through my Facebook Marketplace account. I won't be helping him at all, other than answering questions and casually giving him strategic ideas here and there. If he can sell the rugs at an average price of $35 (keep in mind some are brand new and are 10' x 14' large), he'll make $2500 in profit. Then we can start car shopping :). P.S. Chris and Shannon - thanks for the motivation!!!


Lmao.

This comparison is funny because religious child sacrifice existed in societies that had not developed objectivity or empiricism; they simply did not understand that there is no empirical connection between killing babies and rainfall. However, there is plenty of empirical connection between early unplanned pregnancy and negative outcomes, or fatherlessness and negative outcomes.

Potential mothers write letters to their children that they are about to kill.


Caleb Hammer says Gen Z men are losers "Gen Z men are losers. Dating rates are record low, marriage rates are record low, virginity rates are record high. They're all just losers paying for OnlyFans and watching porn. Or just not manning up to go cold approach. It's not hard to have sex. I've never been a 10 out of 10. Was probably once a 7. I think I've gone down to a 5 out of 10. It is not hard to have sex before any notoriety or money."



obviously not commentary on the salient event itself...but, man, when you see how relentlessly cruel people are about the guy for reasons also completely unrelated to the pivotal act (i.e. the course of his career and whatnot), you begin to wonder why more people don't snap



All I have to say about the shooter is that... Not even the intelligent male mulattos can guarantee themselves a decent living in "the Sort" anymore... How far we've fallen since Obamna...

Supposed shooter (Cole Allen) got a BS in ME from Caltech…then an MS in CS from Cal State Dominguez Hills. You don’t see that kind of step down resume wise unless something else is going on.
