If you buy a bad car, you don't blame the bank that gave you the loan. If you get a broken set of dishes, you don't go to your boss who signs your check and complain. It's the used car salesman who cheated you. It's the store, or maybe the delivery of the product, that ruined your dishes. It's the colleges and teacher's union, with billions of dollars sidelined like hedge funds, that under delivered and over charged. They ran the ad campaign, they got the money, and they handed out the snake oil. If the law allowed lawsuits for this type of fraud, they would all be bankrupt.

Unfortunate that when Scott attacks the Slippery Slope, he always does so against a Straw Man.

19:36 The question I have is, did Diddy diddle Fiddy?

Scott, the slippery slope. Tolerance is the gradient field which indicates a slippery slope. It's the gravity applied to any state in order to get that state to move in the direction indicated by the "tolerance". The step from opposition to tolerance is a large one. From tolerance to acceptance is very small. New calls for tolerance always include more deviance, and the cycle continues. A movement for tolerance for an issue proves that a desired state hasn't been met but force is being applied. This is why the analogy for the slippery slope applies. An object on a slippery slope is at rest while gravity applies force to move it. The analogy: gravity is to objects on a slippery slope as tolerance is to an issue. If someone demands that you tolerate something, they apply social force against your beliefs or standards. All you can know is the next state they want you to slide you into. It's a mistake to assume they only want to halt at your outermost boundary. Most humans desire to get as much as they can from others -- especially strangers. To attain their ultimate goal, they must penetrate your outermost boundary. Once you normalize that, they go after the next boundary. Then the next. Until they're unopposed by anything they desire to inflict upon others. Human wants are infinite. When someone wants something from you, they're always asking for the minimum they'll think you'll tolerate. The only time they don't ask for a minimum is the Motte-and-Baily tactic -- which is still a tactic to gain the maximum you'll permit. The slippery slope applies when social force is exerted against you to gain compliance. That force doesn't stop when they get your compliance because they got what they wanted by applying that force. When the benefit of maintaining that force exceeds the cost, they'll continue. Example: In a job interview, if the interviewer asks about your salary requirements, you know the rate you'd like is infinite dollars but there's a realistic maximum you expect. You also possess a merely acceptable rate. You pick something between acceptable and realistic max. The interviewer then counters with something less. You accept. You don't stop desiring more once you get hired. You never stop desiring more. Nobody stops desiring more of anything they desire. That's not a thing. When you know you've become nigh indispensable, you ask for more. You'll keep asking for more if you know you can get more. This is the case for all forms of compliance being demanded of you. Nobody asks for the max they desire because nobody will give them the max. If you give someone a dollar, that's just what they accept, not what the want. Wants are always infinite because when humans get what they want, they normalize and then want more. This is the case for every human of every kind in every time. This is why billionaires exist and skyscrapers are built. This is what drives every human economy. Capitalism demands continuous growth or a stock loses its investment value to inflation or alternative investments with lower risk. Scott, once you got rich, that didn't stop your pursuit of more. You continued to invest to make more. Your wants are as infinite as everyone else's. No matter how much you gained, you'd want more. This is the case for all desires. The slippery slope is merely the acknowledgment that human desires are infinite and that what is asked is only what others will tolerate, not what the asker maximally desires. That's not a thing.

Speed readers try to learn to stop hearing their own voice when they read. Hearing your voice causes you to pace your reading to approximately match the speed at which you speak. For example, if you speak at 80wpm, and you read at your voice pace, it’s hard to read at speeds approaching 200 wpm. So dropping the internal voice can supposedly help uncap your reading speed. There’s more to speed reading than just that, but it’s a commonly taught concept within speed reading.

From a column by a law professor about the posters on college campuses: “It’s not much of a “genocide,” since there are vastly more Palestinians than there were when their first effort to exterminate the Jews in Israel failed in 1948, which is what’s remembered in the “Nakba” reference. If the Israelis wanted a genocide, they’d have one. But they don’t want one, it’s just that words don’t mean anything to the left. And why should they? They get away with murder, both linguistically and literally.”

One fact that supports that theory, tape a person talking and okay it back. See how much they like it? In fact if people cooks hear themselves, perhaps there would be more listening, more listeners? Reading a book out loud if taped, the played back would in all likelihood be equally unappealing.

The only fair action would be to give 100k or whatever to everyone: students with debt, students without debt, non-students. And that wouldn’t achieve anything.

If you take speed reading seriously, you have to break yourself of the habit of reading in your own voice. This conversion to the spoken version of reading slows you way down. That said, I found it to be not very enjoyable for reading. You don't get the jokes and miss some of the art in prose. It's just information acquisition, but it really seems much faster for people that do it. I enjoy great retention and really enjoy a turn of phrase that's clever, so I think hearing what I read may actually be the better way to go.

Scott, please take an imaginary journey with me. Imagine a scenario where there is a poor neighborhood in America that is now mostly under the rule of drug dealers and gangs. Most of the people are innocent and just want to live their lives but wouldn't dare be stupid enough to stand up against the gangs. Imagine these gangs feel that the government has wronged them time after time with discrimination, bad laws, bad cops, low funding etc. Imagine these gangs are frustrated with the US government for the injustices of the past and their current conditions. Imagine normally it is well known that this is a bad neighborhood amd is regulalry kept an eye on. In fact usually no one leaves with permission and going through an application process to make sure they don't have weapons. Imagine one day all the security for this place is ignored and no one keeps an eye on this neighborhood and on this day one of these gangs attack a government building or maybe even a bank or even worse lets say they do a horrible thing amd simply attack a innocent people at a concert because they feel they are equally guilty by association with the government ect. Let's even say they kill some people and take a hostage back to the neighborhood. Now imagine the government starts a bombing campaign to get these gang members. They don't know where they live amd they don't know how many there are. Sure they warn the innocent women and children to go to the other side of the neighborhood as they bomb their homes and places of business and destroy every innocent persons livelihood. They cause more people in the neighborhood to hate the government and join the gangs because they seem to be accidentally killing a lot of innocent women, children, aid workers, and reports who are trying to help the innocent. The government continues despite not knowing how many innocent they have killed, how many gang members they have killed, or whether or not the hostage is still alive. Please tell me you don't think this is a more reasonable response than a "cease fire" and securing the border of the neighborhood which worked before. What many people (somehow no one you have listened to) say regarding the cease fire is to go back to securing the border which worked. Hamas got through because the security was pulled away and the border was not secured as usual. To call this self defense is stupid when it will only cause more terrorists, unless they intend on continuing till every person in Gaza are dead. To call what they are doing self defense is silly. This is payback 1000 times fold. They are killing and destroying innocent people lives. They will create more terrorists in the process. What they are doing us unnecessary to protect themselves. The innocent people should not have to be killed because the bad people took hostages. Imagine a bank robber was holding hostages at a bank and the police started killing the bank robbers neighbors until he gave up the hostages. He doesn't care about his neighbors. Who would support the cops doing that?
