Key to winning:

Choose to be positive and grateful. Then, just keep at it. Time is the great compounder and will do the rest.

So many people just don’t have the discipline to stay positive and grateful. Then time compounds the bitterness instead.

My parents grew up in communist Romania and told me stories of breadlines and suffering under that political system.

I saw it first hand when I visited Romania at 10 years old.

I tried to tell a joke about Ceasescu in a restaurant and my mother’s friends covered my mouth as I was about to say his name.

They feared the consequences for me of even saying his name in public- and I was just a kid.

Communism isn’t a reasonable option for a political system.

It doesn’t work for the people.

It has never worked to better the lives of the people.

Capitalism isn’t perfect, but at least it was a system my parents could flee to with $5 in their pocket, work at the CNE selling candy floss and doing whatever they could.

Eventually buying a home and giving our family a middle class lifestyle that wasn’t an option under a communist regime.

My father had absolutely no education, but he and my mother worked hard and were rewarded for it.

I get it kids, because you don’t know the history of the system you see it as this utopian ideal where everyone is provided for, but the reality is this:

While the rich would be less rich, the poor would be even more poor.

That’s how it plays out in practice.

Every.

Single.

Time.

It leads to famine.

It leads to death.

Mao Zedong, the founder of the People’s Republic of China is responsible for more death than any other leader in history, estimated 40-80 million people.

When the Berlin Wall fell, which side ran to which side?

Why do you think that is?

Anytime you hear people push for anything like “Equality of Outcome,” beware…that outcome is bleak.

It is a sanitized description of authoritarian rule and communism.

Chamath, very far off on #1 and #2. The CA FAIR Plan is quite a bit more expensive than the insurance carriers were charging for much better coverage. I would recommend looking into how the CDI and Consumer Watchdog handle rate filings and I would recommend looking into who is on the hook financially for the CA FAIR Plan…

@nikala_isot @money_cruncher Unfortunately, yes you would - unless they’re an owner of the business (depends on the state) However, if they are performing clerical tasks the premium paid on $7000/yr would be $25-75/yr (depending on your clerical class code rate)

When a girl asks for a guy's opinion, she isn't really looking for his opinion. She wants him to agree with her's.
