Hey @jerseymikes, when your employees turn your resteraunt from an otherwise peaceful dining experience into a daycare for their kids (loud yelling, running, loud videos on phones, etc...) it makes your loyal customers not want to return. Just a thought.

What Compassionate (and Sane) EBT Would Look Like From a real economist. It's simpler than you imagined. Economists like me are largely to blame for the calamity that is government food welfare. We proved beyond all doubt that a welfare program can deliver more and better food, at lower cost, by simply giving poor people money, so they can buy food in the private market. The government took our stupid advice and replaced soup kitchens with SNAP and WIC and EBT. Like most economists' advice, ours was correct, in the sense that it followed logically from our assumptions. And like most economists' advice, it was a disaster in practice. Economists (I am one) showed you how to deliver high-quality food to poor people at low cost, which solved the exact wrong problem. The three goals of food welfare should be, in order of urgency: 1. Prevent starvation. 2. Get people off food welfare. 3. Minimize costs. You don't achieve Goal 2, getting people off food welfare, by giving them great food. I trust I don't need to explain why, though leftists will (as always) pretend they don't understand. The very premise of SNAP and WIC and EBT is disastrous. Food welfare should not deliver good food at low cost; it should deliver terrible food at low cost. Amazingly, free government cheese is a BETTER food welfare program than SNAP, EBT, or WIC, because people eventually get tired of eating cheese, especially that orange powdered stuff. Here is the only government food welfare we need: Unlimited free Power Bars. Power Bars taste terrible, but they are nutritious. That's our model for food welfare. If you want to improve it, find a way to make Power Bars taste worse, and maybe dry them up a little, so they crumble in our mouth like an aspirin tablet and have to be taken with water. Why unlimited? Why not restrict the free Power Bars to the poor? Because we shouldn't force people to prove they are poor. Proving we are poor wastes time, requires us to pay useless bureaucrats, and encourages us to actually BE poor. So let's just hand Power Bars out for free. Nobody will starve; everyone will be motivated to get off food welfare; and we won't have to watch obese women buy Frito Lay jumbo assortment packs with our money. "No no," leftists will sputter. "We can just prohibit using vouchers to buy junk food." That's just them being willfully dense. As a bonus, unlimited free Power Bars will shut down the secondary market that converts food vouchers into cash, so we can stop paying for obese mothers to buy cigs and malt liquor. When leftists complain that Power Bars are cruel and strip the poor of their immense dignity, just say this: "Why do you want pregnant welfare moms to drink alcohol and smoke?" Leftists will pretend they don't understand, but just ignore them and keep repeating it: "Why do you want pregnant welfare moms to drink alcohol and smoke?" Give them Power Bars instead.

Great read.
What Immigrants Took From the Average American Man Every woman wants a man who can match her social status. We even have a name for her preference: We call it "hypergamy," and it's a fact of life. If you don't believe that, just stop reading now; this post is not for you, and neither is this planet. In the past, hypergamy was only a minor problem, because most men commanded higher status than most women. In this post, I'll say women desire men with higher status, but if you want to replace "status" with "paycheck," you won't be far wrong. So. How do men gain status? Mostly we get it by bringing home a big paycheck. How do men achieve that? Well, that depends on which men. A few lucky men, those who won the genetic lottery, were born with a top-10% IQ. Their big brains let them solve hard problems, and hence command high wages. Those men are still doing okay. They are hiring immigrants. What about the other 90% of men, the ones who were NOT born with a top-10% IQ? How could they command enough status to attract a woman? Let's not mince words: For a functioning marriage market, we need the average man to have higher status than the average woman. How do average men achieve that? Answer: Average men gain status by doing hard, dangerous work that women won't do. Hard, dangerous work commands higher wages, just as it should. In times past, that was how the average man out-earned the average woman. Hence it was how he could satisfy the average woman, and raise a family with her. If a man was too dumb for law school, he could still learn a trade. He could be a lumberjack, or a welder, or a bricklayer. His days would be filled with hard and dangerous work, but his reward was social status that the average woman could not match. Thus, his reward was status that the average woman found desirable. That is why, 60 years ago, a roofer could have a family. He could outearn a woman by performing hard, dangerous work that women don't do. His social status followed naturally, as did her babies. Then the brown immigrants arrived. Brown immigrants are rarely born with top-10% IQ, so they don't really compete with the lucky American men who earn their paychecks by hiring brown immigrants. (For the moment, let's put the tech H1B question aside. I don't pretend this post says anything useful about Indians, since they rarely do hard, dangerous jobs.) Apart from Indians, brown immigrant men are definitely willing to do hard, dangerous work. Furthermore, they accept such low wages that they suck all of the earnings, and hence all of the status, out of those jobs. Sixty years ago, "Roofer" was an honorable job with a decent paycheck. Now it's a Mexican job with a 3rd-world paycheck. A White woman is embarrassed to admit she married a man with a Mexican job and a 3rd-world paycheck. So the low-IQ doors to status: welder, lumberjacks, bricklayer, have slammed shut. Even if a White man could get hired (doubtful if he doesn't speak Spanish) it wouldn't help, because those are Mexican jobs. They command no status among White women, and hence they command no White women. A few blue-collar jobs still command at least some respect: Fireman, plumber, electrician. But that won't last. Eventually those too will become Mexican jobs, because Mexicans will do them for Mexican wages. Then a White women will be embarrassed to admit she married a fireman or an electrician. So she won't marry a roofer, and soon she won't marry a fireman, because women don't like to be embarrassed. Instead, she will stay single, hoping for a top-10% man who can still command a 1st-world wage. She probably won't find one, so she probably won't make any White babies. At this point, I was going to suggest a solution. But I don't need to, do I? We all know what it will take to save our culture. We just lack the courage to do it.

Preach!
🔥 HOLY MIC DROP. Judge Judy just dropped the hammer on those who constantly trash America while living here. “If you don’t like this country, go somewhere else. Don’t come to the greatest country in the world, the most successful country in the world and say, ‘I want to change it.’” She also pointed to the polio vaccine and AI as examples of American innovation, while emphasizing that this is a capitalist country that “revered excellence” and entrepreneurship. “Whether you like it or not, it’s there.” OOF. SAY IT LOUDER, JUDGE JUDY. 👏🔥🇺🇸

Hi @elonmusk, I would like to highlight a word in a post and be given the option to define it. It could promote engagement and encourage "learing". Thanks for all you do!
