@elonmusk Disallow political parties and the ability to get "donations." Setup free government platforms for folks to speak on and be heard to be voted into office. This will be by far a more fair system than whoever has the most money, and help combat corruption.

@elonmusk not the first US government agency to utilize the technology Avalanche provides to create affordable, scalable and customizable blockchains.

Running the Government at Internet Scale: How DOGE Can Leverage Avalanche To Upgrade Legacy Plumbing & Processes 1/ Recently, the U.S. Department of Government Efficiency (@DOGE) announced plans to explore blockchain solutions for improving government operations.

@mcuban Kind of crazy to think the government should be investing and gambling tax payer money anyways. Use the funds to fund at-home programs, like we expect them to do. Far too many problems here that need attention, especially with this crazy debt we keep adding to.

Let's think this through. 1. You have to borrow the money. 50b+ a year ? Plus interest. 2. If its truly VC, then we can expect the same hit ratio of 10 to 20% 3. But those hits don't cash out for 10 yrs + ? Def .more than 4 years 4. If you are paying funds for deals the fraud and Nepo will be extreme 5. Literally in 4 years the SWF can be in debt $200b or more (if you aren't doing that much or more, then what's the point ? ), plus accrued interest. What do you think the politics of that are ? SWFs can work when you are investing a surplus. Otherwise this is UBI for fund managers
Chamath Palihapitiya@chamath

My recommendation for consideration: Have one CEO, unpaid, who is there to give back to the USA vs make money. This person should be a killer who has clearly made a lot of money as an investor. He should view this as a sign of pride to spend 4 years and then rotate out. Have a board of 4 other killer investors, also unpaid, who have also demonstrated a clear skill in making money in their preferred market. Let these group of 5 guide the way. This team of 5 should vote up or down new investments. Everything should be transparent. The sovereign wealth fund should demand preferential deals from the best funds in the world and at discounted fee and carry. This could be a great way to give all Americans a bigger share in our shared upside. I hope you pull this off!

@elonmusk Because the healthcare system in America is wack and would rather subdue effects with drugs than real treatments. It's a fact that doctors in America don't have to take even a nutritionist class during their college journey - so here is a pill instead of just tips to eat healthy.

@mcuban @coinbase I would add, most chains charge money to launch a coin. So be aware it could cost thousands to launch the most basic smart contract on chains like Ethereum, etc. For builders who want to build, build! But it would be foolish for folks to think you can just get rich with ease.

The best response to this is for EVERYONE to do their own $TRUMP and $Melania coins. Apparently There is absolutely nothing that can stop you. Do it on Solana, Base, Ethereum, Fillintheblankchain. Get Paid ! This is the new crypto that @coinbase and others want. Give it to them !
Mark Cuban@mcuban

.@coinbase @brianarmstrong @iampaulgrewal are you sure you want to offer meme coins ? If so, why not do your own versions on Base ? Why should @solana have all the fun ? There are no rules against you minting your own. In fact EVERYONE can do their own $Trump and $Melania. The only rule is that there are no rules. You think that's good now. Right ? Mint it, Print it, Sell it, Fuck it FTW ?

@elonmusk Move everything to a sales tax. It is greedy that we even do income tax; taxing folks right after their hard work pays off. This is especially tough on people down on their luck. Move it all to corporation taxes if you need "income" tax, sales tax or sell bonds. This gives choice

@thesamparr There is a bigger human reaction and feeling to being in-person with others. The bonding that happens actually feels real. Digital sadly doesn't give that same response.

My company, Hampton, is in the midst of a major change. We're switching to in real life meetings (vs. digital). So the way Hampton works: you're put into an 8 person Core group. These people, they're your crew. You meet monthly. They have similar types/sizes of businesses as you. When we started the company, we thought digital meetings were the way to go. This way your Core group wasn't restricted to geography. Turns out, people crave IRL meetings a TON. This seems obvious now. But when we started 2 years ago, it wasn't. In a handful of months, we'll have thousands of entrepreneurs meeting IRL every month. That's pretty cool (so long as it works!) and shockingly hard to pull off.

@zencheetah Interesting. I think it will be a great move and bring more mainstream recognition to McDonald's and Doodles. But how does this help Doodles holders? I expected some exclusivity or something holders get directly. That is kind of the idea behind NFTs, right?

@bennyjohnson It's sad the FDA knowing has let thousands of harmful ingredients go in, mainly creations from these same kinds of byproducts, all to make products cheaper. What else is crazy are doctors, who instead of guiding Americans on better nutrition and exercise, just use medication...

@elonmusk Buying a house with solar panels, I do wish I had a battery attached. I can't wait until production speeds like this stay consistent and hopefully costs go down. Right now I still feel robbed sending energy back to the grid because I'm always charged for using "the line." 🙄

Congratulations Tesla Powerwall team! These will make a big difference around the world. With a Powerwall, your home or business has guaranteed continuous power during utility blackouts or brownouts. Add solar to your roof and/or nearby ground and you can operate off grid. Add Starlink and you can operate your home with no wires at all!

Congrats to the Tesla Nevada team on building 1000 Powerwalls in a single day

@elonmusk I hope with this not only will we cut unnecessary spending but also push businesses to be fair and competitive on the costs they charge government agencies like they would businesses or consumers. Every "tier" up you go, the costs of goods scream greedy because they can.

@DaveYostOH With this, we also need a complete reform of how the broken immigration system is today. I've seen far too many coworkers, good people here on work Visas, paying taxes, working towards citizenship, have to leave because they didn't win an ongoing lottery. It's all broken.

Trump should announce immediately: If you are here illegally, and leave voluntarily before January 20… You can come back legally by following the rules. If you have to be found and deported, you are persona non grata and will never be allowed back in.

@chamath Welcome to a country where we care about over processed foods just so companies can turn more profit. It's no surprise, look at how many FDA approved ingredients and cancerous additives go into American food, where their international version doesn't and actually tastes better...

I am fortunate to be able to spend 6-8weeks in Italy every summer. I work in Milan for 4-6 weeks and then take my summer vacation for 2-3 weeks. More importantly, I get to eat non American food sources for an extended period every year. And I always lose weight! Usually maintaining muscle mass, losing fat. This summer, as usual, I ate pasta, bread, drank wine, ate gelato and got moderate exercise by walking around most days. I lost 5lbs and came back from Europe 164lb. After 2.5 months back in the US, I’ve gained back 2.5lbs. I work out more. Drink less. Eat the same or better…but I can’t seem to outrun the American food supply no matter what I do. If I can’t outrun an American food supply with the resources I have access to, how are most other Americans expected to do so? Is it any wonder, then, that 1/3 of all kids are obese/near obese?
