    Thug Putin Invades Ukraine

    Under b******t pretenses, thug Putin has invaded the democratic, free, sovereign, absolute right-to-exist Ukraine. This is just as much about China, as it is about Russia. This is just as much about Taiwan, as it is about Ukraine. Russia and China are evil. They seek to destroy the international rules based order. Enough is enough. Free and democratic nations everywhere must ally to face head on the existential threat match made in hell that is Russia and China. The free and just world is with you Ukraine, keep fighting.

    Riff on Morgan Housel's excellent piece on how the US economy has developed post WWII. Shifting from a tide that raised all boats to one that increasingly raising only some. Also add analysis from The Economist showing social mobility in America is declining. Be careful of charlatans offering quick fixes. In an economic, business, and geopolitical landscape that looks like nothing we've ever dealt with- it's with a sober mind we must approach these discussions. Let's riff. Would love to hear from you.
