I posted a bunch of evidence on Twitter for how 1) grocery stores have razor thin margins, 2) food producer margins are more average but haven't changed in two decades, 3) of course farmers aren't the ones getting rich so 4) no, the food companies are not gouging you on prices.

It's monetary inflation. Grocery stores and food producers are trying to keep up.

Most people agree due to the inherent audience selection, but the tweets kind of went viral and reached a broader political audience, so a bunch of people came in like, "How come they can put chips on sale for 50% sometimes!?!? Checkmate Alden." (it's because they don't understand fixed costs vs cost-of-goods sold) or "How do you know any of the filings are real? What if they're literally all just lying on their audited SEC filings?"

Post-truth, some of people are. The grasping for price controls is the short-time public and political instinct that ultimately makes things worse, every time.

GM Dr. Jeff, today I taught someone how to self custody….It’s been a good day. 🤙🏻

Don’t think this is true, there will be pushback from other millennials. Stop with the constant “millennials are the problem” and recognize the failures of boomers and gen x in the lessons they taught.

My X algorithm is flooded with “UBI is the answer” posts for some reason.

Wasn’t the Covid stimulus a UBI test drive? The results I witnessed were inflation and that it killed ambition & work ethic in several of our practice employees.
