True story. There were price controls under President Nixon. It led to all sorts of corruption like special relief from price controls for political donors. I wrote about that here 💵⚖️✍🏾 www.brennancenter.org/our-work/ana...

Someone needs to explain to our Sec of Commerce how capitalism works.

America has a GLOBAL TRADE SURPLUS on services. Services have the highest margins and profits of our exports. That is where capital and expertise focused.

It is why we dominate in tech globally.

"we should raise tariffs on all goods to insane levels" is one of Trump's only consistent econ policies, but everyone with basic knowledge knows that's a moronic idea, which leads to Trump staffers repeatedly sanewashing it, only for Trump to go "no I want the insane version"

💡 Today’s discovery: Pricing insights!

Some "boxed products" deliver a fraction of our value but generate huge ACV with enterprises:

If you want to understand why healthcare pricing is horrific, the first thing to know is that our system puts 100% of the credit risk for deductibles, copays and co-insurance on hospitals and doctors. That's insane.
