Hilarious and well done.
Our Town Council keeps raising taxes. So I showed up with an English Lord’s wig to speak in *favor* of taxes. “If you can’t pay your taxes…don’t be poor.”
90% of bad regulation rests on the assumption that whomever we are regulating will not change their behavior in response to new incentives.
What do you guys think about this idea for a Tesla range extender?
We had one student at our K-12 virtual school complete four years of math in a single year. We had another take 18 months to get through one year. Both were doing exactly what they needed. Both are thriving. The problem with traditional math instruction is often the pace. The…
Economics 101: Milton Friedman on 4 ways to spend money: 1). Your money on yourself (you’re careful about both cost and quality). 2). Your money on others (you care about cost, less about quality). 3). Someone else’s money on yourself (you care about quality, not cost). 4).…

Baffled by people who want more housing but hate home builders, want more medicines but hate pharmaceutical companies, want more jobs but hate employers etc. There's no Easter Bunny...if we want stuff, someone has to make it.
Just a reminder this spring @GovBobFerguson and @washdems cut $500 million from Medicaid to fund pay raises for government employees to the tune of $3 billion. And now they blame Trump because they think you’re stupid.
From my 2015 report: "Under revisions in 2014, Maine adults under 50 with no dependents can only get food stamps if they enroll in vocational education, volunteer an hr a day, or work 20 hrs a week if mentally & physically able. After 1 yr..the food stamp caseload of childless…
This shocked me until I thought back to all the job applications I used to get for casino industry jobs. I think that, specific to those jobs, it was much higher than 54%.
Reminder that 54% of American adults can't read above a 6th grade level.
America has become a country that can't build things in a timely and cost efficient manner. And it's all due to over regulation. Nuclear plants, high speed rail, light rail, housing. Everything takes too long and costs too much, while at the same time we subsidize things that…
China has rapidly expanded its nuclear program by building copies of Western reactor designs—quickly and at declining costs. There’s no reason this progress should be limited to China. It’s time for the US to unleash its own nuclear renaissance.
Clearly nuclear costs needn't rise forever. We know for a fact that we can make them cheaper, they're just overregulated. But not in China!
FL vs WA Homelessness comparison 2024 Total Population : FL 22.9 million — WA 8.0 million 2014-2024 Spending on Homelessness: FL $1.9bn . —-WA $5.3bn Spending per capita: FL $8/yr/capita — WA $66/yr/capita Total Homeless change : FL (35,900 → 31,462) WA (20,000…
Another one of the patterns: Homeless industrial virtue pattern HIPV 1) Cause an emergency through soft on drugs policy 2) Declare an emergency that requires lots of tax dollars to fix 3) Spend taxpayer dollars like your ever lovin soul depends on it 4) Spread that taxpayer…
One advantage of having many distinct sovereign nations instead of a single world government is that they can try different policies and we can see which work best.
This was so painful to watch in real time.
I am not blaming Julio at all for the Mariners not winning that game But to get 6 balls in a row and strike out with the 65 HR Big Dumper on deck hurts a little….or a lot 📸 @stymirr
