My 4 reasons why I left USA.

The incentives in America are broken. And so is the money.

Fix the money, fix the US.

I like the production value of your videos and generally enjoy your content.

I have to say, I didn’t particularly enjoy this one.

For Americans, inflation seldom goes up 7%. It’s also incorrect to say the federal debt is mathematically impossible to repay. Mathematically it is possible to repay it…I’d use a different qualifier than “mathematically.” Little mistakes here and there hurt the messaging.

But I want to go back re-emphasize, you do great work. They’re entertaining and educational to watch. This one was the only one that I felt missed the mark a little bit.

I mean do you think debt can be repaid???

metadavid 8mo ago

Realistically and mathematically are 2 distinctly different concepts :) Yeah, I know you were talking about how realistic it is, but that’s different than what’s possible mathematically.

Mathematically any number can be paid back, even if it was 999 trillion. Or any other number you can dream of. Is it realistic? It’s a different story. :)

All that’s to say is your content is amazing, and I’ll still keep watching. Your audience is growing, you’re reeling in a wider group of people who enjoy your content. Don’t change who you are or how you do your videos (delivery, production, etc)

Just be buttoned up about data you use and some word usage because that can diminish impact of the messaging you’re giving. :)

The inflation rate is higher, I used 7% because it’s what comes up when you research over the surface

metadavid 8mo ago

The typical inflation rate in the US 2%-3% annually. The 7% we experienced was a rare anomaly like we had in the 1970s. :)

I wouldn’t recommend this, but I used ChatGPT to quickly show you, but it’d safer to double check the actual data which is tracked by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics.
