“Employees are using AI to create low-effort, passable looking work that creates more work for coworkers” to the tune of $9m per year per 10k employees
S&P500 index co’s employ 31m so that works out to a -$28B annual productivity loss for the U.S.

blocked multiple times for respectfully & patiently making this point last night.
I’m indep but have never voted GOP 
saying this constructively, Dems have to be better at strategic thinking & less shrill/emotional/obnoxious if they want to win back middle class (suffering buyer’s remorse)

good. senate dems made the right call.
the shut down was a trap.
this stings but it ensures the courts remain functional.
strategy now is courts issue stay orders.
force GOP to defy courts
if they do, rise up
if they don’t, vote them out
then prosecute.

1-DOGE has captured treasury (since 21 Jan using extraordinary measures to avoid default) & BFS payment systems
this enables Musk to choose what line items to fund/not fund
2-courts are primary obstacle slowing DOGE & EO lawlessness
Q: what stops Musk cutting judiciary funding if gov shuts down?

why propagate narrative that California ‘turned off water’ (it was Dept of Interior, conducting regular maintenance) to ‘prioritize environment over protecting its citizens/cities’, and that federal govt mobilized military (!?) to “turn on”?
why would DOGE want to take credit?
