Intriguing claim! At first I was skeptical, thinking that there would be an issue with leading zeros being discarded. However, with some piloting, I was able to use Claude and ChatGPT to construct a proof of your claim. Sketch of the argume

Money is just an abstraction for actual goods and services produced by the economy. If your wages go up, presumably so does the wages of those whose services you consume. If less people worked, the economy would produce less and we would be

Can you explain a bit more about how these people can raise their standard of living by moving? Money is just an abstraction for real goods and services produced by the economy. Presumably we need people to live in Philly since that's

Housing is, to a certain extent, a positional good. People want to live in safe, friendly neighborhoods, surrounded by well educated, middle to upper class people. Even if everyone got more money, it's not easy for more people to live

What's the problem with hoarding? There's no difference between a billion dollars stuffed under the mattress, never to be spent, and a billion dollars burned up in a fire. If the rich aren't spending, they are not consuming r

And I have a strong belief that creators should be compensated for their hard work. Tell you what: let's compromise. Creators get a right, let's call it "copyright" or something, whereby for a limited amount of time they

I'm not a fan of payment for order flow. The problem is that it lets HFTs pick off the uninformed orders, leaving the orders that actually reach the exchange more "toxic". This lowers the incentive for others to rest orders o
