What part of the world are you in? I need to not go there 🤣

Game Day!!!

Ok, I could care less about the game, but I get to make wings, try other people’s food contributions, have a smoked Old Fashioned, and use all those wing tips to make awesome stock, some weekend.

Easily the best Pomp Podcast I’ve ever listened to.

The explanation of tariffs, especially the 2018 examples, blow out my Overton Window. I really hope Pomp’s theory on the end goal plays out - we’ll be in a better world.

Get on Nostr, Pomp!

Correct! Like getting out of debt, in reverse……..and having ‘a bigger shovel’ (income), certainly doesn’t hurt.

But no matter how little, every cent you put into bitcoin goes from depreciating to appreciating. Beautiful!!

Wow. It makes sense to me. If that is in fact the case, this is going to be a really interesting 18 months.

Bet all those inflated payments over the years for anything & everything show about 10-20% going to the ‘thing’, 80-90% going to the grifters.

Bingo. As it should be.

Soft men have gotten us to what, for many will be some hard times. I pray we have the will to see the fix through.

This is timely……I thought there was no fraud to be found 🤷🏼‍♂️

Fitting it was Illinois.

Random thought, probably from consuming 10x the articles I normaly read, past few weeks.

What if, a strengthened executive branch is what achieves us greater devolution of rights, powers, agencies, programs back to the states? Trump’s comments on education at the press conference with the Japanese PM put this thought in my head.

I think it would be a net benefit to find ourselves in an country where the executive is stronger, but over a much reduced federal footprint - like the (greatly reduced) military, borders, foreign affairs, and as little else as possible.

And I say that knowing that it will allow my state - Illinois - to race with California, New York, and New Jersey to see who can be the worst 😂
