I'm having trouble figuring out the math for this. My assumptions lead me to divide $30b by 8b people, which is about $4/person. I'm not confident that people can eat on $4 for a year.
What am I getting wrong?

"As of January 2026, the total U.S. national debt has exceeded $38.5 trillion. This figure represents the total money borrowed by the federal government to cover annual deficits, which is growing rapidly, with a rise of over $2 trillion in 2025 alone."
I definitely want to tax the hell out of the rich, but we are in a deep hole. A long term systemic change will serve us better (or in addition to) talking all of their money now.

Paradox of Tolerance Philosopher Karl Popper described the paradox of tolerance as the seemingly counterintuitive idea that “in order to maintain a tolerant society, the society must be intolerant of intolerance.” Essentially, if a so-called tolerant society permits the existence of intolerant philosophies, it is no longer tolerant.

Being a gang member is legal and freedom of association is, implicitly, part of our 1st Amendment rights.
Either they have an actual crime, evidence, and conviction or it's all legally irrelevant. I understand that it's politically relevant, I just want to underscore how little the law matters to these folks.

Not what I would do, but the safest way is to villify then execute small and unpopular minorities (in the minority/majority sense) and then cater to the monolithic block that emerges. Super evil but it works.

I left the game industry in 2010 (after 18 years) and it was the best career decision I've ever made.
I still get to work with amazing people on interesting problems AND I work sustainable hours and am compensated better.

I'm assuming that you have never lived in the rural South. The people who disproportionately suffer from the impact of the Civil War and reconstruction are poor and black.
I'm with you on hanging traitors, but a more devastated South would not have been good for anyone.

What is a gender neutral replacement for man, guys, buddy, etc?
I sound even more southern than I am because I say "y'all" frequently to avoid gendered pronouns. People, you, and we are often good. I think my favorite is "you folks".

I wrote a bitmap rotating function in the early 90s and whenever pixels rotated off the top of the screen my BIOS would reset.
I was delighted when we could afford a decent 2d graphics library.

I don't think that unions will help the game industry to the same degree that they help others.
There's an endless supply of young people who are excited to make games. Oversupply means that the demand-side (employers) have the power advantage.
