Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

That's really the job of the political sector to figure out how to distribute things.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

The relief is so, it's so much greater than everybody doesn't know.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

They're different.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

They relate to each other over time.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

But what a market is trying to do is it's taking everything it knows and extrapolating it forever about everything.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

So if you change it like one degree, you won't notice that in the economy, but somebody who's trying to take

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

all the earnings and discount it back to present value from infinity back to the present, it's a big effect on a market, but really a small effect on the economy because the economy is a day-to-day thing and the market is trying to look at all the future possibilities and discount them back to the present.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

I would say...

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

They shouldn't ignore each other, but they could go apart.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

And also, the market is also sentiment.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

No, it was high, but when people do... And by the way, I am not the market.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

I don't own the market.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

I am a slave to the market like anybody else.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

I'm trying to figure it out also.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

But when somebody has a 300 times, trades at 300 times their earnings, people have to be thinking, and they are thinking, that it's not going to be 300 times, that next year it's going to grow 100%.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

The year after that, it's going to grow 100% or 90%.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

That's the element of this growth.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

And so people...

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

Again, once again, the market is extrapolating, is discounting the future into the present and saying, yes, it looks like 100 times earning now, but at this price, five years from now, it'll be 12 times earning.

Making Sense with Sam Harris
#473 β€” Money, Power, and Moral Failure

The price is going to go up from there.
