@AlexGodofsky The problem with leveling the playing field is that I’m not spending extra hours at work so I can give one penny each to 100 million people. I’m spending extra hours so I can give $1 million to my children. If I couldn’t give it to my children, I’d never create that wealth.

@AlexGodofsky What story is this?

[David Godofsky @DRGodofsky]

“Four ships were clustered in the area… equidistant from one another.” - passage in a book I am reading. [Not about space ships]

@ProfRobAnderson I would teach ERISA.

@EricLDaugh Not allowed to say that on the house floor. It’s true, but he’s not allowed to say it. Under House rules, truth is not a defense. What he should have said: “I’m sorry I told the truth. My bad.”

Alex Stepnowsky flew a swastica flag at NYU event. I can see that NYU could punish him administratively, but he was also charged with a crime. I don’t see how that could be a crime. Offensive, yes, crime, no. What am I missing?

@AdeleScalia LOL my son carved it on the beautiful dining room table. Now he’s a fantastic son and I could not be more proud. You just have to laugh it off.

@DefiantLs Since Van Hollen is a supporter of terrorists himself, it is not surprising that he objects to the label for Cuba.

@AlanMCole @History__Speaks Does Iran use signage in English?

@petergodofsky @tracewoodgrains Not just the education department, and not just civil rights law.

@petergodofsky “Better than Harris” is a very low bar to clear.

Platner says 1/3 of Collins money comes from Jews so she is “bought and paid for” by Netanyahu. American Jews. I don’t think Platner is bought and paid for by terrorists. He is on their side out of genuinely held beliefs. No payment needed.

@sgodofsk More to the point, the Jewish hostages in Gaza were treated much worse than the pigs, and Kristoff had no problem with treating people that way (Jewish people, that is). So, I don’t care what he thinks about the treatment of pigs.

@sgodofsk @cljack Um. German’s speaking German in Germany. Astonishing.

780 arrested and 57 police injured in Paris in “mostly peaceful” celebration.

Guy on X says it can’t be that 47% of Americans have less than $1,000 in savings because median household net worth is $193,000. Um. Median is 50th percentile, not 47; a household could include 4 people with no savings and one with $193k; and net worth is not savings.

@AlanMCole @GreenPlusAnE What do you call someone who takes $6,000 from a single mother raising 3 children on a $40,000 a year salary, and gives it to a guy who has $7 million in the bank and an income of $100,000? Commissioner of Social Security Administration. (Real example.)

[David Godofsky @DRGodofsky]

@AlanMCole @GreenPlusAnE Boomers who simultaneously collect social security/Medicare, AND help out their children (who pay for the social security/Medicare), may not be net givers, even to their own children.

[David Godofsky @DRGodofsky]

@BabyAlchian @Comgenerico18 Well, comparing astrologers to scientists, its pretty obvious that astrologers are free-market capitalists who would not make as much money working for the government. While many scientists do work for the govt, but have no interest in economics.

@PhilWMagness Most of English literature is fantasy - not the genre, but simply fictional stories told for pleasure or to promote political positions.
