A foreign country bro. Every time.

What’s interesting about this reading list is not only the obvious level of difficulty but how much more interesting to the average boy this is than many current lists

America has a cult of the youth. Plastic surgery. Juvenile behavior of people over 40. Old guys on trt. It can be kind of ridiculous. But the underlying virtue is self sufficiency.

The alternative is something like this. A culture that exalts fragility and weakness. Sees no shame in being in a wheelchair as an able bodied adult. Servants. No exercise. Wealth as something that makes you soft.

This woman Mary Julia Koch is one of the heiresses to the billionaire Koch dynasty, which is why she got her career at Wall Street Journal. She graduated from Harvard in 2023. She's essentially a billionaire heiress with no life experience lecturing young men about laziness.

Going out for coffee helps you stay consistent with your tasks. It introduces some variety in a life that needs it

It is worth the price

What people don’t understand is that NY and CA have industrialized “carefare” - effectively Medicaid funded welfare. It’s all ultimately paid for by the federal taxpayer, since these states will go bk and will have to be bailed out.

The program is a way to pay affinity client groups - immigrants, low earners, reliable D voters - for doing ~nothing. It’s a glorified welfare scheme being laundered through Medicaid. This is happening because no one wants to vote against “more healthcare”. Healthcare is good, right?

It’s not “fraud” per se because the programs growing to absolutely massive scale is the point; the insane amounts of grift are completely legitimate and acceptable under the terms of the scheme. It’s just a way to plunder the NY/CA taxpayer and the federal taxpayer in the end. No one has figured it out yet but it’s basically a massive cash for votes scheme

It’s the kind of stuff that will eventually completely bankrupt the country, not just blue states. Once you see it, you will never unsee

@Polymarket Funny enough I could name a number of people who were drug dealers in their college years that now bless the halls of notable institutions. It’s a sales job with complex sourcing and light manufacturing.
