"A guy looked at my airplane the other day and said I wonder how many people I could have fed for the price of that airplane...

I replied I am not sure, it fed a lot of families at the Dassault factory where it was built. I’m sure it fed a bunch of families that rolled the aluminum at the Alcoa factory. It surely fed a lot of people at the Honeywell factory where the experts built the turbines. It fed a whole company for a few weeks when I had them build me a new interior. It feeds the families of the linemen that fuel it.

That’s the difference between capitalism and a welfare mentality. When you buy something, you put money in people's pockets, and give them dignity for their skills.

When you give someone something for nothing, you rob them of their dignity and self worth.

Capitalism is freely giving your money in exchange for something of value.

Socialism is taking your money against your will and shoving something down your throat that you never asked for."

[Freedomain - with Stefan Molyneux, MA @StefanMolyneux]

The existence of slavery prevented the evolution of modern free market economies.

Nobody who buys slaves wants to invest in labor-saving devices.

The same is true of cheap immigrant labor.

Makes a few people rich, kills the advancement of mankind.

The #NYCMayoralDebate is the absolute bottom of the barrel politics. You got a guy who got kicked out of office for being a pervert and who already lost the primary vs a communist nepo baby, who has never had a job in his life, hates America, hates the police and is pro terrorist and a 3rd guy who actually loves NYC but has no shot at winning. I feel bad for every person who cares about NYC.

If you trade freedom for safety, you end up neither free nor safe. Only freedom can keep you safe.

If you trade service in Heaven for equality in Hell, you end up serving in Hell. Only service can make you equal.

Life is full of lessons like that. They all have one thing in common:

Creating what you want increases it. Demanding what you want destroys it.

This is the power of "deserving." You destroy whatever you "deserve." This is "the dark side of the Force" in Star Wars. Yoda says it's faster, but not as strong. Anyone who wants to get their gimme-gimmes from others is on the dark side. It's like tearing down a house to build a fire. Yes, it gets you warm right now, but when you run out of fuel, now you're cold with no house.

In my opinion, FDR was one of the evilest men in American history, particularly since he bankrupted the British while simultaneously aiding the Soviets with no strings attached

The result was communism controlling half the world, killing tens of millions in the process🧵👇

10 Shocking Stories the Media Buried Today

#10 - Julian Assange Exposes CIA's Plot to Assassinate Him in First Public Hearing Since Release

Assange revealed how the CIA attempted to assassinate him within the embassy, tried to obtain DNA from his infant son, and had a CIA asset permanently track his wife.

“We revealed the CIA's vast production of malware and viruses, its subversion of supply chains... CIA Director Pompeo launched a campaign of retribution,” Assange said.

He went on to explain that under Mike Pompeo’s leadership, the CIA had drafted plans to kidnap or kill him, while also targeting his colleagues in Europe with theft, hacking, and planting false information.

These jaw-dropping claims are backed by over thirty current and former U.S. intelligence officials, as well as evidence from a legal case against some of the CIA agents involved. Assange emphasized that the CIA’s actions against him, his family, and his associates show just how far intelligence organizations are willing to go when it comes to transnational repression.

Assange made it clear: “The CIA’s targeting of myself, my family, and my associates through aggressive extrajudicial and extraterritorial means provides a rare insight into how powerful intelligence organizations engage in transnational repression. Such repressions are not unique. What is unique is that we know so much about this one due to numerous whistleblowers and to judicial investigations in Spain.”

Since I got my first faculty position in 2012, students' knowledge has plummeted (from a not-great level). Few nowadays have heard of Robinson Crusoe, know why there was a wall in Berlin, or can read or write well. This is not the students' failure. It's a failure of instruction.

Fake meat is failing:

@BeyondMeat has lost 95% of its market value since its 2019 IPO.

"The taste, texture and smell of fake meat are unappetizing."

We don’t really need any more studies. We know we should be lifting heavy things, staying active, eating meat and seafood and other whole foods. We know we need sleep, sun, and light at the right times. We know being fat is bad for us.

Nothing’s gonna move the needle.
