Most of what we call scarce is just abundance we have not organized yet. The water sits in the ocean. The energy pours from the sky. The knowledge floats in the air around us. The hard part is the delivery!
@movementandreas@DrJackKruse i tried to share @jackkruse__Pleb w a lot of friends but he just drops bombs without context. he needs to do bomb then bridge instead of bomb, brag, bomb, brag. he would be famous then and on more podcasts and go from bombastic to bomb-tastic.
government destroys value.
in this case, the value of an American education was destroyed in ~40 years.
if there’s no marketplace for customers (parents of students) to demand value (quality of education for price paid) by simply going to another service provider (school or educator), it is inevitable that costs will go up and quality will go down.
this is true of any service provided by government, which effectively grants itself a monopoly, deleting the opportunity for other service providers to compete in offering better value to customers/citizens…
they’re not jobs if they’re not valued. they’re not valued if there aren’t customers out there willing to pay them for their great work. needing the government to “create” a job is tantamount to welfare and that level of welfare resolves these individuals to a dependency on the government and lack of economic mobility. and chains our people, collectively, to a more indentured future.
you may be well intentioned but you have, and always will, fail to see the destitute folly of government as a job creation engine.
i have tried to engage you on this topic, in good faith, with empiricism and reasoning, but you have only dodged my points and pivoted to some populist refrain about the importance of taxation and the evils of productivity-driven success.
i can only assume you’re dodging these truths because you and the rest of the politburo leadership have deemed the conversation unsafe speech and put your oligopoly at risk.
let’s leave it at that then.
perhaps if your ways get their day, we can all bask in the glories of the dark ages ahead.
@DrJackKruse@drjackkruse you’re light years https://t.co/Jio4E1pc4w frustrating that simpler mainstream voices get way more traction. Your bomb-drop style hits hard for insiders but confuses most. Quick win: Drop the bomb, then immediately add a simple 30-sec analogy + one strong metaphor.
@RedWavePress legit to do: not only could humanity then see the stars and save power... artificial lighting affects human health, check out dark sky society
The headlines are relentless.
AI seems posed to outthink many of us.
So what do humans do?
Twenty years after writing A WHOLE NEW MIND about the rise of right-brainers, here’s my initial answer:

I’m in love with this sentence:
“The degree to which a person can grow is directly proportional to the amount of truth he can accept about himself without running away.”
Tattoo this to your brain:
"The world is a malleable place. If you know what you want, and you go for it with maximum energy and passion, the world will often reconfigure itself around you much more quickly and easily than you would think.”
