@dawallach Financially, the Lehman deal would’ve been just as good (maybe even better, given the circumstances under which it would’ve been struck). The costs of the government being in the bailout business exceed financial ones, of course. “Threats to our democracy” & all that kinda stuff. — PolitiTweet.org

The U.S. Army fell a staggering *25%* short of its recruiting goals this year. Turns out that if you constantly question the ideals of a nation, fewer young people are interested in serving that nation. Our loss of national identity & loss of national security go hand-in-hand. — PolitiTweet.org

My advice to other entrepreneurs: consider hiring more veterans. More often than not, they work hard & get the job done without complaint. They’re not soft. It’s a better way to add “diversity of experience” to a company rather than using racial quotas. Happy Veterans Day, folks. — PolitiTweet.org

The arranged marriage between government & business is more like mutual prostitution: neither side loves the other, but it works so long as each side gets something out of the trade. https://t.co/PdSHlUPxwE — PolitiTweet.org

The funny twist in SBF’s version: he’d committed to donate a whopping *$1 billion* to Democrats over this cycle & next, so they were upset at him for falling short. If he gets prosecuted, here’s the lesson for future crony capitalists: pay full freight when buying protection. — PolitiTweet.org

In 2008, Goldman mastered the art of crony capitalism: pay up for government protection & get bailed out when you need it most. That’s why Goldman got bailed out while Lehman didn’t. Crypto-dude Sam Bankman-Fried just tried to play the same game by donating $30mm+ to Democrats. https://t.co/D28TjwOozo — PolitiTweet.org

So-called “Responsible Investment” funds suffered outflows of over $100BN so far this year. My favorite quote: “We need that return.” Turns out that virtue-signaling has a cost in the end. https://t.co/Uz9XgNC4yA — PolitiTweet.org

The fact that Apple’s decision to limit Facebook’s ability to track user data hurt its business so badly reveals how historically contingent Facebook’s commercial success really was. If those limits existed at inception, it’d have never become a juggernaut. https://t.co/aO7OqyUano — PolitiTweet.org

If the Biden administration really cares about “foreign influence” over U.S. businesses, they should scrutinize the CCP’s relationships with U.S. financial institutions. Start with BlackRock. But they won’t, for obvious reasons. https://t.co/XO5EVe5JOb — PolitiTweet.org

@kdoepp22 @GOP The Democratic platforms were totally nonexistent and vision nonexistent, you’re right. All the more reason why Republicans need to do better, rather than to just complacently criticize the other side. — PolitiTweet.org

I said it before the election & I’ll say it again: talking about “the failed Biden agenda” and “defeating the radical Left” isn’t sufficient to achieve success. You need a substantive, uplifting, competing vision for the country. That’s what Republicans need & it’s badly missing. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m more interested to see what the Republicans will actually do than I am in the election results themselves.

“ESG funds” divest from certain sectors like oil and gas, but the bigger problem is that giant *non-ESG* funds vote their clients’ shares to foist ESG mandates onto companies. That’s a far more devious problem. https://t.co/B5Uzfoy4hV — PolitiTweet.org

Feeling like you’ve experienced racism is not the same thing as actually experiencing racism - evidenced by the fact that older black Americans complain less about it than do millennials. — PolitiTweet.org

BlackRock, State Street, and Vanguard all voted in *favor* of a Scope 3 emissions cap at Chevron in 2021…using the money of hardworking everyday Americans to do it. — PolitiTweet.org

An oil company like Chevron adopting a scope 3 emissions cap makes as much sense as it would for McDonald’s to commit to reducing the body weight of anyone who eats a Big Mac, without asking the consumer to share responsibility. https://t.co/RBmL21eaTp — PolitiTweet.org

I respect someone who disagrees vehemently with me based on principles over someone who agrees with me without actually knowing why. It turns out that a commitment to free speech is one of the few things that defines what it means to be American. That’s inherently an extreme idea — PolitiTweet.org

This is a fundamental question for Elon Musk has he reimagines Twitter: is it simply a home for the majority of Americans who are in “the middle”? Or does it become a true “free speech platform”? Those are not the same thing. — PolitiTweet.org
