You Have To Earn It Baby! | @DavidBahnsen
A simple Capital Record with a simple refresher on the difference between capital formation and capital allocation, and why entrepreneurs bemoaning the challenges of having capital allocated to them are getting it all wrong.
.@DavidBahnsen: Are the riots in France hypocritical or is it that the rioters don't actually care about the cause the media is telling you that they do.
Hopelessness and Social Unrest | @DavidBahnsen
In the revelatory moment of chaos and barbarism, one worldview is exposed for the reductio ad absurdum it is, and the opportunity presents itself to present the vision for a free and virtuous society, even to a country like France.

David echoes Chesterton here
.@DavidBahnsen: If there's a crisis of responsibility in this country, blame belongs first firmly at the feet of the man in the mirror, not political leaders you've never met.

Those who hate the financial sector and demonize the activity of capital markets will never understood that beneath it all is the story of the human spirit.

.@DavidBahnsen: Washington does not know anything. They most certainly do not know what occupations and productive activities are going to flow out of our educational resources.
They just don't.
Being Trained to be an Entrepreneur … by the Government?? | @DavidBahnsen
Is this the retraining and investment in work we have been waiting for, or is it another overreach where inexperienced bureaucrats are out of their lane, feeling good about saying the right things?

Let me give you an easy "cheat" if you want to understand something about BASIC economics ...
Anyone advocating a ban on exporting diesel fuels is an economic ignoramus to such an extreme degree that they should be ignored about anything that ever, ever comes out of their mouth.
AI Slowing Down to Find Itself | @DavidBahnsen
The internet and social media were aghast as Anthropic's Dario Amodei, penned a “Jerry Maguire” screed about the AI labs “slowing down” due to the risks of “losing control."
Gratitude for Higher Football Costs | @DavidBahnsen
The greed and debauchery of “big football” is on full display as far as many are concerned, but one group stands out as not being concerned at all: those who actually watch the NFL.

It was announced over the weekend that the United States is taking a 35 percent stake in a private energy company connected to Venezuelan oil rights. Is this “U.S. government in private business” thing getting out of control, or is the United States government a natural business partner in the Venezuelan oil production market? In today’s @nro Capital Record, David will unpack the good, bad, and ugly of this deal, and ask us if our first principles endorse these public-private partnerships, or if they should cause us concern.
