@MochiKitty162@thatsam009_ The real difference is Messi creates opportunities for others and himself; C Ronaldo needs others to create opportunities for him to be effective.
School-based mental health interventions & SEL that prioritize & hyperfocus on emotions & feelings have been a disaster for young people. They are reverse-CBT. They pathologize normal developmental experiences.
The biggest CON in this current western world is that these politicians make you and I believe the tax they collect from the rich is actually going to help pay our rents and groceries.
The truth is the extra tax we pay are only going to pay for
Warren’s second summer house in the Hamptons and enriching her donors with financial contracts.
Billionaires sit on giant fortunes that compound while you're working two jobs just to pay rent.
My wealth tax changes that.
It's time the ultra-rich pay their fair share so we can invest in lowering costs for working people.
@stats_feed In 50 years time, no one is going to remember Ronaldo like no one remembers the second best player in Pele’s time or Maradona’s time.
Everyone though will forever remember MESSI!
Spencer Pratt led the L.A. mayoral race on election night, then Nithya Raman accumulated another hundred thousand votes over the following week.
The LA mayoral race was stolen long before the votes came in. Democrats built this system on purpose.
@earlyvotedata Even the most DJT-skeptical can and should disregard B&B in almost all respects.
And while I'm not the biggest fan of the MOU, it's vital to remember that DJT is the only POTUS in my near-40yr lifetime that has moved the ME TOWARD peace.
And I will, therefore, keep faith.
@RoryTrackr Nonsense. It’s his mindset. He’s got too much reservations and not enough of fearlessness. Also, i wish he spends hours working on his wedge games. Go talk to his neighbor Tiger. Go talk to Zack Johnson. Do something. His wedge games horrid.
David Sacks just delivered an economics masterclass on Elon becoming the world’s first trillionaire.
@davidsacks: “People see the headline and imagine Elon suddenly has a trillion dollars in the bank. That’s not how it works. His balance sheet didn’t change overnight.”
Why?
The real point is deeper. Wealth isn’t in the “stuff” we consume. Food, shelter, clothes. Things that depreciate and disappear. It’s in the machines that create stuff for decades: tools, workflows, and corporations.
These are the true engines of human progress.
“If you create a machine that makes more stuff, then there’s a discounted present value for all the stuff in the future that machine might create. That’s where the wealth comes from.”
Elon started with nothing. An immigrant who slept on the floor building Zip2. He created these machines from vision and relentless effort. Thousands joined him, including a SpaceX welder who turned his labor into a million dollars in stock.
That’s the magic of tech and free markets: labor can become capital. It’s fluid.
The outrage misses this entirely. The people building machines that deliver medicines, energy, and abundance are creating lasting prosperity for everyone.
What do you think? Does viewing wealth as future productivity change how you see stories like this?
Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders are furious that Elon is a trillionaire on paper.
But they are totally fine with:
1) $2 trillion annual budget deficits
2) $1.3 trillion in annual interest payments
3) $1 trillion in annual govt fraud
4) $39 trillion national debt
