Thank you for raising that point. I would love any recommendations you have to learn more about internal consumption shifts in the last decade.

I think it is worth mentioning how much more cheap capital is available for manufacturing. Chinese state policy—- monetary, fiscal, and social—- pushes up the savings rate, enormously lowering consumption, while restricting the range of consumer financial products. That puts more savings in state banks and keeps interest rates low.

Lot of smoking and drinking oneself to death in those generations.

Did you find Verapamil had any mood altering or cognitive properties for you? I take it for migraines. I think it makes me a little more emotionally stable but a tiny bit slower cognitively, especially in the mornings. It's a good trade off, especially in light of how it basically stopped my migraines, but it's one I have perceived.

Hey, I am a man who got work that is probably like what you are getting. Email is in bio if you want to talk a little.

I think you can destroy the environment with industrialization using different distributive glosses. The Soviet Union did it with a very diminished sense of private property and limited internal markets. I think sometimes it is capitalist ignoring of externalities and other times it is socialist ignoring of externalities.

I don't. I think it's great.

US government contracts account for 70%+ of SpaceX’s revenues through 2018. Can’t speculate about since. I like SpaceX but it’s just untrue that they weren’t highly dependent on US gov’t contracts for a long time (which itself is the product of space market liberalization by Obama in 2010).

Haven't been on a tour where you get to bust open the door to the House Chamber to prevent the lawful transfer of power.

In American chattel slavery, women were kidnapped, stuffed into boats where malnourished strangers died around them, beaten, forced to change their names and religion, and raped. The children of those rapes were routinely sold at auction, and their parents would never see them again. If the children were caught secretly learning to read, they would be beaten. Income taxes are annoying, but they are not slavery.

the society you get by deciding that tired jocks with guns and a 2-4x of baseline rate of domestic violence and an unstoppable union should get to decide what due process is bad. law enforcers should have to follow the law. also I am willing to bet you don’t know much about due process because there is no way you’re an attorney but I’ll eat my shoe if you show me where you’re licensed to practice law.
