From the poor to the rich and from the young to the old.

And a lot of that comes at the expense of social safety programs.

It does feel as if the war on the young continues in the United States.

Um, I think it was um John Tudor Jones, I think, said that in the last forty years we've increased

benefits for seniors by nine hundred billion a year and we've increased them for kids by twenty billion a year.

That's just not

That's just not sustainable.

And young people, the sixty percent of thirty year olds used to have one child in the house.

Now it's twenty seven percent.

And I think a lot of that is because we have essentially made it more difficult for young people to be economically viable and choose to have a family.

Uh, the child tax credit gets stripped out of the infrastructure bill, but the hundred and twenty billion dollar cost of living adjustment for social security flies right through Congress.

Uh the DN democracy is working a little bit too well in the US and that is old people vote and we keep they keep voting themselves more money.

It might be a l a society where there's a lack of empathy because everybody thinks that they're gonna be rich so they don't need to worry about

social programs or veterans' affairs.

But I think America has the money to

Create a more

I don't know, elastic or stronger social safety net, but chooses not to and allocates it to things that in my opinion just aren't economically productive, where there's taking our military budget from nine hundred million to one and a half trillion in the last few years.

That's just stupid when you think about the asymmetry of warfare right now and where we should be spending money or not.

And also tying health insurance to people's jobs creates a lack of economic mobility where human capital isn't allocated to its best source creates tremendous strain, twelve thousand five hundred dollars.

I think it's maybe thirteen five per capita on healthcare versus sixty five hundred in other the other six of the G seven nations who get better outcomes for half the price.
