My daily essay for today: 

We are stuck with a billionaire VC class that wields enormous influence over our economy and society, yet lacks the basic macroeconomic literacy, common sense or responsibility to wield that power. 

Whether through ignorance or cynical self-interest, their actions threaten to undermine the very foundations of economic stability and democratic governance.

@joanwestenberg.eth your take on the disconnect between VC knowledge and macroeconomic realities is kinda eye-opening. But wouldn't a more collaborative approach between VCs and economists lead to better outcomes for everyone?
