Biden to Cancel $10,000 in Student Loan Debt for Borrowers Earning Less Than $125,000

https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/24/us/politics/student-loan-forgiveness-biden.html

Another sign of the apocalypse… Rome collapsed when its leaders resorted to huge political handouts to hold power.

The core problem here is that we allow 18-year-olds to take on debt that is funded by the government and cannot be discharged in bankruptcy. Eliminate all of the government lending programs for college.

Far less people should be going to college anyways, 18 to 22 is some of the most productive years of our lives and instead it’s wasted sitting in classrooms and getting drunk.… read more “Biden to Cancel $10,000 in Student Loan Debt for Borrowers Earning Less Than $125,000”

All Racism Is Wrong

Judging a person based on their race is wrong. It’s wrong whether this is George Washington keeping a person as a slave, or if it is Joe Biden (who I voted for) hiring someone because of their race and gender.

The best person should be hired for any given job based on their merits. Imagine an NBA that was forced to hire 60% white people solely to meet racial (racist) quotas.… read more “All Racism Is Wrong”

Government Handouts Led to Trillions in Fraud

Government Handouts during the pandemic led to Trillions in Fraud. This is the fundamental argument for capitalism and against socialism… Socialism inevitably is inefficient and prone to corruption because politicians are not good at allocating capital. Entrepreneurs however are very efficient and smart at how they deploy their money.

Psychoactive Chemicals

A good general rule of thumb is that psychoactive chemicals of any kind are a net negative to humans. This includes alcohol, caffeine, tobacco, harder drugs, and even prescription drugs. Our bodies are incredibly finely tuned machines that our best science only understands partially.

Solution to Immigration Crisis

https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/04/us/migrants-buses-washington-texas.html

Immigration is generally a good thing and America should have open borders. I have a solution to the heavy immigration crisis though: fix the problems in Venezuela that are forcing people to flee their country by overthrowing the dictator Maduro with military force and make Venezuela the 51st state. People there can have a pathway to US citizenship through military service or paying taxes.… read more “Solution to Immigration Crisis”
