If AI now accounts for 25% of corporate layoffs, but 275,000 'AI jobs' are open, what's the real problem? It's not that AI is killing jobs. It's that we're training people for careers that expired five years ago. The education system is the bottleneck—not the technology. Fix that, and abundance follows.
@Bobebbop@DavidSacks@grok who are the cooling suppliers that have full factories and years of back logs and that are public companies so I can but their stock?
Can we just start a class action lawsuit against the US government? US Citizens v United States. Gross negligence in handling taxpayer funds would be a good start. Who’s in?
My boss's boss is like 42, never married, no kids. Earns $275-300K per year. Goes on a minimum of two international vacations a year w/ his girlfriend. 10+ days, all out.
Eats the best food, stays in top notch accomodations. Excursions, tours, nicest beaches, etc.
Great guy, I'm happy for him.
But what I've realized is that without kids, you end up chasing a lifestyle that has to continually be topped in order for you to be satisfied and find happiness.
What he and others like him don't understand is that when you have children, seeing THEM experience life's most basic things and watching their eyes light up at all the "firsts", brings greater pleasure and joy than any vacation or travel experience ever could.
Seeing THEM try blueberries for the first time is greater than dining at the best 5 star restaurant in Europe.
Seeing THEM learn how to walk is greater than walking the Great Wall of China or strolling along the most picturesque beach.
Watching THEM giggle uncontrollably at "peek-a-boo" tops any A-list comedian act.
Seeing THEIR excitement when building a fort out of cardboard boxes and making a door big enough for daddy is superior to staying at 5-star resorts.
Flying kites with THEM far outweighs excursions like parasailing or helicopter rides.
Seeing THEM perform a recital on stage for the first time is more rewarding than watching a Broadway show or top notch symphony orchestra.
-----------------
When you have children, all of a sudden you realize that life's greatest joys are not in the pursuit of things or pleasure or travel, but rather in the LOVE and bond you share with your very own image bearers.
Seeing the beauty and magnificence and wonder of life all over again for the first time through THEIR eyes and expressions gives you something the world simply cannot offer, nor even come close.
I'm old enough to remember when @elonmusk and DOGE uncovered billions of waste, fraud, and abuse.
Somehow, I missed the arrests of the people who did it.
So glad they got that soldier, though. Phew.
Hypothetically…….. I’m being taxed on money I never made. Let that sink in.
If I bought my property outright for $60,000 in 2009
Now the county says it’s worth $246,000.
Did I sell it? No.
Did I make a profit? No.
Did I get a check for $246,000? No.
But my taxes jumped like I did.
That’s the problem.
This isn’t income.
This isn’t cash.
This is a number someone decided on paper — and now I’m being billed for it.
If my stock portfolio doubles, I don’t pay taxes until I sell.
If my income doesn’t increase, I don’t magically owe more income tax.
So why does owning a home work differently?
Why am I being taxed on unrealized gains?
A house isn’t just an investment — it’s where people live. And this system means you can do everything right, pay off your home, and still get squeezed harder every year because of a number you never turned into money.
You don’t truly own something if you can be taxed out of it.
This isn’t about “services” or “inflation.”
It’s about being charged for value you never received.
And people are starting to notice.
This needs to be on everyone’s mind✔️
0% chance you allow your accountant to list your networth upwards of $30M when you’re actually worth sub-$95K.
You accidentally forget about the millions you don’t have?
Our politicians are the worst of us and live in fake performative grifting lala land.
🚨 WOW! Nick Shirley says it PERFECTLY on Elon Musk
"I don't think too many people actually say THANK YOU to Elon Musk. Do people realize what he's actually done for society?"
"I'm looking at him just eye to eye. I'm like, 'wow, this man has done a lot for society and he's taking his time to just talk with ME.'"
"I think we both just wanted to meet each other and to have a conversation."
"And everyone just wants to DEMONIZE Elon Musk."
"Between Starlink, between Tesla, between the uh between X, between the tunnels, like do people realize how much this man has done? PayPal too. Do people actually realize how much impact this man has had on society?"
"He's not money driven. And everyone wants to get mad at him for having money? That's just what happens when you provide such value to the world."
Thank you @ElonMusk! Team America, team civilization 🇺🇸

This is literally mind blowing
Spencer Pratt exposes Los Angeles Department of Water and Power salaries
- Over 100 LADWP employees earn an annual compensation of over $500,000 per year each
- 26 LADWP employees earn more than $600,000 thousand dollars per year
- 4 top level LADWP employees earn more than $700,000 dollars a year
- The LADWP has a combined water and power budget of 11 billion dollars
I looked into it further, and get this
100% of leadership and oversight of the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power are aligned with Democrats
Mayor of Los Angeles Karen Bass appointed the 5 member Board of Water and Power Commissioners, which sets policy and approves major decisions like executive hires and salaries
California is essentially run by the mafia
They are literally giving themselves $500,000 -$800,000 EACH and this is just one department
Dr Oz confirms that after stopping payments to 450 hospices in California, still NOT ONE has called and asked to have their payments reinstated
450 hospices out of 450 hospices in California were fraud
He says collectively they stole $750 million in just on year
They said thousands of troops would be killed.
They said oil would hit $200 a barrel.
They said our Gulf allies would turn on us.
They said BRICS would join the war on Iran’s side.
They said the stock market would crash.
They were wrong about quite literally everything.
Can we just take a second here and admit something that the regime media and the foreign policy geniuses in Washington will never say out loud? President Trump just dropped the hammer on Iran—and it’s not just tough, it’s brilliant. Absolute chess move.
After Tehran laughed in our face and refused to play ball on the terms we laid out—no more nuclear games, no more shaking down the world for passage through the Strait of Hormuz—Trump didn’t blink. He announced a full naval blockade of the Persian Gulf. No ships in, no ships out. And here’s the part that should have every oil trader and every globalist suit sweating through their overpriced suits: he’s redirecting those tankers straight to the Gulf of America. Buy American oil. Pay in U.S. dollars. End of story.
Why is this genius? Let me break it down like the simple truth it is.
First, it ends the extortion racket without sending a single American boot into another Middle Eastern quagmire. Iran thought they could turn the world’s most important oil choke point into their personal toll booth. Wrong. Trump just flipped the script: you don’t control the flow anymore. We do. The same Navy that’s been babysitting the planet for decades is now finally working for us. No more free security for countries that hate us while they get rich off our protection.
Second, it supercharges American energy dominance. We’re sitting on more oil and gas than anyone else on Earth. Block the Gulf, prices spike everywhere else, and suddenly every country that needs crude—Europe, Asia, whoever—has one logical place to go: right here. Gulf of America terminals firing on all cylinders. American workers. American profits. American dollars. The petrodollar doesn’t just survive; it gets a shot of adrenaline straight to the heart. While the rest of the world scrambles, we’re printing money and telling our enemies to pound sand.
Third, it exposes the whole rotten global order for what it is. For years, we’ve been told we have to play nice, subsidize everyone else’s defense, and let hostile regimes dictate energy prices. Trump just said: no thanks. This isn’t “escalation.” It’s accountability. Iran wanted to play pirate in international waters? Fine. Now they get to watch their economy choke while American energy booms. China and India want cheap oil? Better start buying it from the country that actually produces it instead of funding the mullahs who hate us.
The usual suspects are already screaming about “warmongering” and “oil prices” and how this is all so very complicated. Spare me. The complicated part was pretending America wasn’t the strongest kid on the block. Trump just reminded everyone—especially our adversaries—that we don’t have to beg or bribe or negotiate from weakness. We set the terms now.
This is what America First actually looks like when it’s executed by someone who means it. No forever wars. No blank checks. Just raw, unapologetic leverage that puts American workers, American energy, and American strength first. And the best part? The Iranians are the ones who forced his hand. They chose this. Trump just made them regret it.
God bless the guy. In a town full of people who couldn’t negotiate their way out of a wet paper bag, he just reminded the world who runs the table.

They really think Trump has no clue what’s going on, when in reality, he now controls the flow of 36%+ of the world’s crude oil supply, and just forced the nations of the world to buy oil from us, and Venezuela, which Trump conveniently already secured, along with the Panama Canal.
Now Trump’s focus on Greenland, Canada, and the Arctic shipping routes, makes even more sense. Trump is securing global shipping lanes, and turning the US into THE global energy superpower.
Trump has China, and the world, by the balls, and the sheep are oblivious. Trump is completely shaking up the global order, and forcing the world to deal through us. Trump is stripping the Deep State of their leverage, and securing the entire board.
You are watching the “world’s most powerful reset”, and the dawning of “The Golden Age”.
The Deep State’s reign is over. They have been outmaneuvered. Trump controls the oil, therefore, he controls the world.
