  • If America wants to compete with China, it must fund its engines of commerce.

    High speed rail must link every major city. How can businesses make deals without cheap public transport to connect people?

    Startups need to focus on innovation. Healthcare plans are a distraction. Full single-payer healthcare is essential if American businesses are to stay innovative.

    Were I a VC intellectual I would demand these heretical ideas and more. Somehow I doubt they’d go down well - they’re the wrong sort of heracy.




  • The things to look up are Beta Israel (a lost tribe who were discovered in Ethiopia) and Operation Solomon (how they wound up in Israel). From there, you might find some answers from Israeli sources or elsewhere. I’ve similarly heard this assertion/rumour that the women of Beta Israel were sterilised after their incredible discovery and rescue, but haven’t seen authoritative sources for either side. Still, this should be an interesting rabbit hole to go down.




  • I just feel sorry for him at this point. Not as much as I feel sorry for America, but I do feel sorry for him. When he dies, he will die not having known the best things in life. No true love, no actual friends, no peace. Money has not bought him happiness. Maybe he was born into a prison of his family’s making, but all he’s done is build up the walls and seal the doors. He’s a tragic, pitiful character rather than a beacon of strength or success.

    Erm, make sure you put him in an actual prison too, though. Good luck, Yanks, your tea-drinking cousins still want the best for you despite everything 🇬🇧
