| 2 | Keynesian stimulus has never worked, and never will, and the record proves it. Every. Single. Time.
Start with the New Deal. Roosevelt tripled federal spending between 1933 and 1940, and unemployment still sat at 14.6 percent in 1940. Seven years of pump-priming bought a decade the economists call the Great Depression.
Japan tried the same trick. Through the 1990s Tokyo ran ten separate stimulus packages, poured trillions of yen into bridges and roads to nowhere, and drove public debt above 130 percent of GDP by 2000. The reward was the Lost Decade, then a second one.
Then came 2009. Obama and his advisers promised the $831 billion stimulus would hold unemployment under 8 percent. It hit 10 percent in October 2009. They spent the money anyway on shovel-ready projects that the president himself later admitted were not shovel-ready.
You see the pattern? Politicians take resources out of the productive economy through taxes and borrowing, hand them to whoever has the best lobbyists, and call the shuffle "growth." They count the spending. They never count what the money would have built if the private sector had kept it.
Frédéric Bastiat explained this in 1850 with the broken window. The stimulus crowd still hasn't read him. The government cannot spend you into prosperity. It can only move wealth around and skim off the top.

| 3 | Lyn Alden: "The best product Coca-Cola ever sold was their bonds, not their Coke."
Coca-Cola borrows at 2-3% while the money supply grows at 7%. They then use that cheap debt to buy scarcer assets.
Governments do it. Corporations do it. Wealthy individuals do it. Everyone is shorting the currency...
Except the people at the bottom.
They can't access cheap debt and "are getting the full damage of the inflation" on their wages and savings.

| 6 | ❗️ Peter Thiel: "There's only one company making money in the AI boom, that's Nvidia. Everybody else is losing money."
And it all traces back to one stupid decision in 1993.
"You should not be asking this question about meta or openai or any of these things. You should really be focusing on the Nvidia question, the chips question"
"Nvidia got started in 1993. That was the last year where anybody in their right mind would have studied electrical engineering over computer science"
"94, Netscape takes off. It's probably a really bad idea to start a semiconductor company even in '93"
"But the benefit is there was going to be no one would come after you. No talented people started semiconductor companies after 1993 because they all went into software"
"Their monopoly power, I think it's quite strong because of this history I just gave you, where none of us know anything about chips"

| 9 | ⚠️Ayn Rand's most important lesson: Production comes before distribution. You cannot divide a pie nobody baked.
Every politician inverts that order. They argue over who gets what slice, how to tax the baker, how to redistribute the flour, as if the loaf simply materialized like manna. Rand called this out for what it is. Wealth is created by specific people doing specific things: Hank Rearden smelting metal, John Galt building a motor. Take those people away and you're left with committees drafting memos about fairness while the lights go dark.
The entrepreneur is not a parasite skimming off labor. He directs scarce resources toward their most urgent uses, and he eats the loss when he guesses wrong. No bureaucrat carries that risk. This is what Ludwig von Mises spent his career proving in denser prose.
Rand's villains aren't cartoon capitalists. They're the moochers who demand the moral sanction of their victims: the industrialist who lobbies for a subsidy, the intellectual who calls envy "social justice." She hated the crony as much as the commissar.

| 10 | “Rockefeller would focus on the highest priority.
When he gets into the oil refining business it has no barriers to entry.
It costs $1000 to start a refinery and only requires a few people to run it.
And one thing he notices is that transportation is the largest expense. It costs more to ship a barrel of oil, than to refine it.
So if transportation is your highest priority that means the location of your refinery is key.
The site that he chose was genius. He selected a location that was next to both the railroad and on the banks of a river. Why? Shipping by water was 50% cheaper than shipping by rail.
If something is your top priority you should spend the majority of your time thinking about how to develop an edge there.”

| 11 | 🎓 Elon Musk says the most expensive thing universities sell isn’t education, it’s proof of obedience.
His argument is simple: almost every lecture, textbook, and course is now online, often for free. The internet has demolished the old monopoly on knowledge.
So what are students really paying for?
According to Musk, college has become less about learning and more about proving you can follow instructions, meet deadlines, and complete years of assignments without quitting.
He argues that if you’re aiming to do something truly exceptional, a degree isn’t evidence of exceptional ability. Pointing to entrepreneurs like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, and Larry Ellison—all college dropouts—Musk suggests that some of the world’s biggest innovators succeeded by building, not by collecting credentials.
Whether you agree or not, his message reflects a growing shift: knowledge has become abundant, while credentials remain expensive.
The question is no longer, “Where did you study?” It’s increasingly, “What can you actually build?”

| 13 | Milton Friedman on Adam Smith’s ‘invisible hand’:
“Somehow or other, there exists this subtle system in which, without any individual trying to control it, people seeking to promote their own interests will also promote the well-being of the country.”
“That’s a very sophisticated story. It’s hard to understand how you can get a complex, interrelated system without anybody controlling it.”

| 17 | ❗️Palantir CEO Alex Karp just took aim at the AI industry’s biggest players.
In a blunt interview, Karp argued that many large companies are paying huge AI bills without seeing meaningful business value. He claimed enterprises are being charged for tokens instead of outcomes, asking a simple question: If AI can really generate billions in value, why aren’t vendors charging a share of that value instead of billing for compute?
Karp also warned that businesses risk giving away their competitive edge by feeding confidential data, workflows, and internal knowledge into frontier AI systems. In his view, companies could end up helping train the very models that power products for their competitors.
He described the current model as a “wealth tax” on enterprises, saying executives privately worry about high costs, weak ROI, and protecting their intellectual property even if few are willing to criticize the biggest AI labs publicly.
Whether or not his claims hold up, Karp’s comments highlight a growing debate around AI: Are companies buying transformative business value, or simply paying ever-larger compute bills while handing over valuable data?

| 18 | 🏘 AI’s wealth wave Is reshaping San Francisco
The AI boom isn’t just creating billion-dollar startups, it’s transforming the housing market in and around San Francisco.
Home prices have climbed to a median of $1.7 million, while average monthly rent has reached $3,827. Even professionals earning under $200,000 a year are increasingly being priced out of the city.
One couple making a combined $365,000 spent three months searching for housing but couldn’t find an apartment for less than $5,000 a month. They eventually split their living arrangements, with one relocating to the Lake Tahoe area while the other rented a single room for $1,650.
The region has also added roughly 10,000 people worth more than $20 million, fueled in part by lucrative AI equity payouts. During a recent secondary share sale, 75 OpenAI employees reportedly earned an average of $30 million each.
With potential IPOs from OpenAI and Anthropic still on the horizon, analysts expect another wave of newly minted millionaires and even more pressure on the Bay Area housing market.
