In addition to demonstrating a complete lack of understanding of how LLMs actually work they don't simply regurgitate what's in their training data it shows a total lack of intellectual curiosity.

I did simulations about France and at the current level (which is probably close to the maximum level that is politically sustainable) the impact on the old-age support ratio a few decades from now is barely noticeable. You'd need 4-5 times more immigration for it to have a meaningful effect though even that wouldn't "solve" aging which is obviously politically impossible. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2018712993089962273"

The authors argue that in the 20th century high levels of taxation on the rich happened as a result of mass warfare. According to them it wasn't arguments about ability to pay or high inequality that led to high taxes on rich people but compensatory arguments that made the case for such taxes on the ground that rich people ought to pay high taxes to make up for the profits they were able to make during WWI and WWII while ordinary people were risking their lives.

"This is your periodic reminder that colonization was a money pit for France and is obviously not what made it rich but rather it's because it was rich that it was able to colonize Africa. Today French trade with Africa is tiny and we're a net exporter of food products to Africa. France didnt do anybody a favor by letting Algerians Malians Senegalese and others they robbed come live there and work like dogs. Africa does the favors. African gold African labor. Africa feeds France. African soldiers shed blood for France in WWI and WWII and the troops France didnt do anybody a favor by letting"
