The nefarious forces are kids, if I didn’t have kids I would probably keep living in apartments near the middle of a metro area. However, once I had my children, it was all about yard space, good schools, and therefore suburbs.

That’s good it’s what our Founders intended they want the ambition of Congress to be a check on the power of the President. Working as intended, it shouldn’t have taken this long but at least some in Congress is starting to move towards checking presidential powers.

Even if they were totally transparent it is still impossible. Free markets assume similar/same knowledge and information. However, 1. Most of us aren’t doctors, 2. When we need treatment we are physically and mentally impaired. How can you be an informed consumer under these circumstances?

This is why Buffett and Munger never bet short, although when they are bearish they are like 95% accurate according to Munger. The 5% of times that you are wrong, even just timing wise could kill you.

Especially this administration, discussing military plans in a group signal chat, but talking about Epstein files Situation Room. They certainly have their nat sec priorities.

Yes they come up with solutions that doesn’t even move the dial in housing costs like investment funds should not own properties, or permanent rent freezes in NYC. Unrealistic solutions because they don’t want to diagnose the problem, all they want is slogans and vibes.

Depends, if the median net worth was 100M, it makes sense to have 1B dollars. However any ratio of maximum net worth to median net worth that exceeds millions of times is probably not healthy for society.

Yes I agree our political systems has not evolved to the point where an economy can just apply supply side economics and shift to demand side economics and vice versa as the conditions in the economy shifts. This is a global problem though so not sure I agree with your last assertion.

I think the economic conditions in the late 70s and early 80s did justify “supply side” solutions and Reaganomics was on balanced justified at that time. Unfortunately by the late 90s and certainly early 2000s those conditions do not apply and ideally we should have reversed those policies.

Nothing wrong with supply side economics. Alexander Hamilton applied “supply side” economics and helped create one of the fastest economic miracles ever seen in the history of the world. Problem is that you should apply when economic conditions are supplied constrained and stop it when it isn’t.

Depends on how the government decide to structure the market. If it decides to protect the monopolies/oligopolies that may naturally arises than 1. If the govt regulated AI and protects labor’s bargaining power such that labor can capture at minimum a fair share of the benefits of AI it would be 2.
