Unironically the answer is "shop less."

Prices on goods rise when demand for goods stays sufficient to support the price going up. The less everyone buys, the less things will cost.

Prices for goods have almost nothing to do with the price of rent, but the mechanisms there are the same - it's just that you have to encourage building rather than "live somewhere less" because the second option really isn't tenable, for obvious reasons.

If you want rent to come down, campaign for, vote for, or even run for office to be the candidate that will change zoning laws and encourage building multifamily housing.

Worth noting this ruling is explicitly based on statewide legislation, meaning this could be changed at any time, if the legislature cared at all.

You really do get exactly what you vote for.

Brave people push boundaries so that less brave people can read things in books.

The Supreme Court is hardly your average citizen and Congress absolutely has reasons to investigate potential corrupt in the Supreme Court.

There are going to be a lot of people saying how stupid this entire concept is in the comments.

Let me tell you something, as a person who spent years in finance. There's no fucking chance on Earth this happens. You will win the Powerball twice consecutively before Musk pulls this off.

None of this infrastructure exists in X and all of this infrastructure is exactly the kind of shit Musk hates. Automobile regulations are fucking nothing compared to financial regs.

Adoption aside, which you'd have to be fucking insane to adopt this platform as a payments platform, the regs alone will ensure this never, ever, materializes.

What Musk describes will someday exist. He will not be involved, and the day is well over a decade away.

This is "Kanye West running for President" level of stupidity. The people close to him have let him down by not telling him how stupid this is.

The clarifying language, oddly enough, gives it protection as protest art.

This article is fucking hilarious top to bottom and if you came here to comment without reading, I highly suggest you read it.

They already banned Shakespeare in several schools for being too sexual.

Genuinely hope someone buys Mar A Lago and turns it into a document storage facility.
