There is something deeply broken about an economy that creates trillionaires while people get buried under the cost of living and 42 million go hungry. The ultra-rich should realize that my Billionaires Income Tax, aimed at ensuring they pay their fair share, represents the moderate path forward.
Tesla shareholders have approved a pay package that could make CEO Elon Musk, already the world’s richest person, the world’s first trillionaire. https://cnn.it/43KZnkA

I think this dovetails nicely with Capital A Abundance too: being able to get a legal challenge resolved in 30 days vs being able to do so in a year is a huge. Without any statutory changes could potentially unlock a lot of productive capacity that way.

Rule of law has to *work* at the practical level: cases have to be cleared quickly, and the legal system has to be adequately resourced. Not only should there be more judges, both state and fed court systems need far more technical capacity (in house experts, better technical backend)

I think a pseudo-niche political opinion that I’m developing is judge-maxing. Both the United States and the world generally need far greater number of judges. I think we need legal-abundance: an oversupplied court system able to both clear simple cases quickly and devote more time to complex ones.

This photo hangs in my home. Making Season 2 of #Peacemaker has been the highlight of my creative life and it wouldn’t be that way with each of these folks who I truly love. Haven’t watched it? Watch it now on HBO Max.

Okay. Well, if Trump is going to attempt legal end-arounds like federalizing the NG of GOP states to send them to Dem states over the objections of governors and courts, I think the Democrats should just keep the federal government shut down indefinitely.

Democrats Must Embrace War Mindset
We have exited a long period of peace and entered into a struggle not unlike war, in which all the old certainties have gone malleable and the future of the republic is at stake.

the things about this isn't that it's totally untrue, examples of this phenomenon do exist. but this criticism is just totally disconnected to the actual prevalence of it and it's ability to impact the real world. it's a subset of "democrats are held accountable for what random people online say"
One reason most people find it important to listen to non-experts on a range of topics is that communities of expert practice have repeatedly revealed themselves to be sufficiently shot-through with ideological bias as to severely undermine their credibility.

It has been the honor of my life to serve as Commissioner of BLS alongside the many dedicated civil servants tasked with measuring a vast and dynamic economy. It is vital and important work and I thank them for their service to this nation.

elite cohesion and gatekeeping collapsed, in media and politics. those things weren't necessarily *good*, but they were *better* than what replaced them.
Man, how did things get this dysfunctional? And before you say “the empire was always like this; you were just too privileged to see it,” no it wasn’t because if it was, the empire could not have been built in the first place.
