I did none of those things, but I’ve done plenty of things I’d take back.

It is an evil system designed by a conspiracy from our science complex that brings us great people to displace our own great people, which is supported by great people and fought by great people.

All the major voices I see on this so far are in some super-position of 'Wrong' and 'Not Wrong'.

|content=I highly recommend learning about the history of where [[H-1B Visa|H-1B]] came from before getting emotionally invested in it.

It was born as a [[Labor Shortages|labor tampering conspiracy]] against American scientists headquartered at the [[National Academy of Sciences (NAS)|@theNASEM]] ([[Government University Industry Research Round Table (GUIRR)|GUIRR]]) & [[National Science Foundation (NSF)|@nsf]] (PRA) under [[Erich Bloch]].

|content=If you don’t understand what is going on with artificial consensus:

Invite me to officially speak at your University. Say on [[Peer Review]]. Or 40 years of [[Quantum Gravity]]. Or [[Great Moderation|The Great Moderation]]. Or Esoteric/Exoteric speech in academe. Or [[H-1B Visa|H1B]]. Etc..

Then watch what happens next.

|content=Note Added After Posting: Maybe I should have just said “I think the Mossad sent it. It’s a Secret Jewish Spy Comet sent to control America. That is why Avi Loeb is all over this one.”

Yet another missed opportunity here on @X…too late…too late.

|content=I’m told that I need to explain my silence on 3I/Atlas.

Why?

I just have no insight into this. I know nothing about it. I think it is interesting, and that we should keep an open mind. But it seems to be a comet. 🤷‍♀️ 

I have zero additional insight on this. Sorry.

|content=You hear me commenting on [[CPI]] and inflation, but you don’t hear me commenting on 2026 growth forecasts. Why? Because I know nothing about the latter, while I do know how our economists lie about [[CPI]] measurement.

You don’t hear me commenting about family reunification immigration but you do hear me saying that [[H-1B Visa|H1B]] was an unethical scam by the Reagan Era [[National Science Foundation (NSF)|@NSF]] and [[National Academy of Sciences (NAS)|@theNASciences]]. Why? Because I know a LOT about one and little about the other.

|content=In general, I try to stick to things that I have looked at in some depth on where I can at least hope to have  some insight.

Of course I fail at this. I don’t always manage to restrain myself from commenting and I frankly don’t think I have any *obligation* to do so…but my opinions on things like 3I/Atlas where I know little are just very close to noise. And I don’t want to contribute to that. 

There are a lot of people on @X who seem to have an opinion on most technical things. You can always consult them.

|content=The visa *IS* the abuse. It was created at [[National Science Foundation (NSF)|@NSF]]/[[National Academy of Sciences (NAS)|@theNASciences]] by [[Erich Bloch]], [[Peter House]] &amp; [[Myles Boylan]].

Happy to explain how the Reagan-era plot worked, to *any* large national news outlet supporting [[H-1B Visa|H1B]]. On camera.

The program *IS* the fraud. It’s not fraud in the program.

|content=There’s no point having a large labor market w/ a wage mechanism, if we can’t understand that there are no labor shortages in large labor markets w/ wage mechanisms.

This isn’t a centrally planned economy.

What is wrong with us…this just isn’t that hard. No one is this dumb.
