Unbelievably important: the power of just checking out. "We political animals often find it difficult to understand that it is a reasonable reaction to tune out and just get on with your life. There are many things you can be rationally ignorant about because you think that your efforts would hardly make a difference. Instead, people go on to work, adapt, and improvise and so, in effect, *continue to improve the world*." Exit was always more powerful than voice. https://www.cato.org/free-society/through-progress-peril-precarious-state-human-freedom

EATING THE RICH is a hopeless and lunatic policy proposal. First, the rich aren't even that rich: grabbing all of Jeff Bezos' wealth bankrolls the Federal Government for less than a week. Second, "Wealth in a free society is a rough tallying score of how much economic value someone has provided to the rest of us. A rich person’s wealth — bar inheritance and cronyism — is a testament to how much they enriched us." So we need the rich RICHER, not poorer.

My latest for Mises Institute--shitting on goldbugs. Bc, in 2024, that's what we do: "It is not the case that the world can be any which way its people want — or the way us moderns may delude ourselves into thinking it should be instead. There are hard rules and bright shining lines that lead us toward prosperity, well-being, harmony, and conflict-minimization. Rules, morals, behaviors, and most importantly economic arrangements are not arbitrary." https://mises.org/mises-wire/sebag-and-natural-money #Econstr #nostr
