  • Infinite wealth?

    No.

    I would do petty things like buy Tesla, destroy all the factories and then dissolve it. That way there are no assets to recover.

    I would start buying massive tracts of land to build a functional passenger priority rail system.

    I would start removing lanes on highways. Electric cars are not the future.

    I would destroy cities and remake them so that city roads only prioritize emergency services.

    I would buy up all the crypto and do absolutely nothing with it in hopes that it would die.

    I would upgrade Texas’ power grid so it could connect to other states. That way they won’t freeze to death every time it snows.

    I would buy up buildings in desert regions and start demolishing them.

    I would buy up all the insurance companies and shut them down.

    I would build a big dome over the state of Ohio so nobody comes in or out.

    I am very petty.














  • I’m confused. You don’t know that the sun will rise tomorrow - you believe it will. Science is our best guess at how the universe around us works. Geocentric was how we believed the universe worked until that theory was proven to be wrong.

    You know the current theory, and based on that knowledge you can believe it will rise. There could be some phenomenon that will turn the sun dark for 7 days that is not part of the current model. It’s unlikely, but possible.

    Knowledge is the understanding of that which will not change. Yes, you can modify the theory tomorrow but it will not be the same theory as today. That’s why it’s knowable
