In a free market, I can’t sell bread at 100× the normal price. Competitors will undercut me, and even if I buy them out, new ones will keep entering. That cycle never ends. Predatory pricing fails because the moment I raise prices, customers leave. Cartels fail because members cheat and new entrants break in. The only reliable way to maintain a monopoly is through the state. By trading favors with politicians, I can use government power to block competitors under the guise of regulation, public safety, or national interest. In reality, those rules exist to protect cronies like me. This can only happen publicly when the government passes regulations, because regulations are the public face of cronyism. Thus contrary to what dumb socialists think, solution is to protest and ask removal of regulations not billionaires and capitalism itself.




Here’s something you’ll never see in Europe: a train station at midnight, no one is harassing you, no one trying to steal your phone. Everything is calm and safe. Thank God I live in Russia 🇷🇺


Я живу в России и я ненавижу путина за то, что он захватил власть в стране, начал войну, уже 26 лет ворует, лжет, сажает в тюрьмы и убивает своих политических оппонентов. Я не выбирала эту власть и хочу перемен. И таких россиян тысячи. Мы за мир, свободу и демократию





Reporter: Did you post that picture of yourself depicted as Jesus Christ? Trump: It wasn't a depiction. I did post it and I thought it was me as a doctor. And had to do with red cross as a red cross worker, which we support and only the fake news could come up with that one.

Trump says that Iran has no cards.


This is a bad take. Astrology ought to be a non starter, unless you are being facetious about it. Taking astrology seriously suggests that you are epistemically broken. Possibly scientifically illiterate.
