don't worry, he's starting with physics and will invent economics from first principles on his own because he's a genius
when this went from calling coworkers "NPCs" to "working" for DOGE, to "studying physics" and I'm just going to leave this here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmJI6qIqURA

#444Sounds a lot like the guy who said I have 23 gold medals and have no idea what to do (Michael Phelps).

#448Not to judge or sound condescending, but it seems like you’re lacking empathy and a community. I know exactly what I’d do in your situation: help others.

He pulled millions from the economy and now wants to work with the oligarchs towards having even less redistribution. He is a small part of the reason why his country is going to s***.
