I've been talking to a decent number of wealthy people about this subject and sometimes their responses are deafening. I don't think it's malice but rather plain ignorance. It's hard to understand the frustrations of the

I wouldn't say the folks I know who are moving to farms intend to go into the business. More so as a means of seeing it as a way to find solid footing so they can escape many years of landlords having a tight grip on their income.

Absolutely agreed. The K-12 problem seems to be one exacerbated by school leaders optimizing for things that can be graded and "tested" in the name of "standardization and fairness". But when it comes to fostering discov

You raise a /very/ good point. But I worry that it is not working in a way that's favorable to those who rely on cash holdings (most people) for their budgeting and daily goals.

Seems to me like we're seeing the definition of "moral hazard" incarnate lately.

I agree, social mobility is extremely important for the progress of a society. Talent is not necessarily distributed to those born with silver spoons.

Ending QE definitely seems like a step in the right direction. If money is inflated away, what's the point of it really? I don't know enough about UBI to say if it's a good replacement. I am curious to learn more about your r

Occupy definitely didn't vanish. The same people who were protesting then are out protesting now. But now, they're more organized and zealous than before.

Definitely the case for some people but I don't think it's driving force for a large percentage (yet). Maybe a few more droughts and food shortages would change that though.

Indeed, so how can the situation be corrected?

Are the markets really "working" when the FED is making a habit of bailing them out?

Retirement funds are something boomers have. It's a luxury for a lot of young people if they can make it work.

How would you reconfigure it?

So what's next?

Believe in the narrative of careerism, work at companies until you retire, all that. Lots of young folks are saying "it's all a scam", dropping out, buying RVs, vans, moving to farms, etc.

I'm just wondering what's going to come next. Nature abhors a vacuum.

I've noticed a lot of young people giving up lately on supporting the economic system. Anyone else seen this?

You're right, goats can be trouble makers. We use sheep to mow our lawn and they are very easy to deal with. They won't go over a 2 foot fence and don't need a lot of maintenance. Water, occasionally some mineral rich feed, a

They never did fix the batteries self destructing if not charged every other month problem, did they?
