Chris regarding the comment about the Korean person it shows a lack of respect for other cultures. It sounds like he didn’t mean to cause offense but it looks like he did?

ur economy is net negative…example: more restaurant close and lose money, than all the restaurant combined,,, make money.
more startups lose money, than all the successful ones combined.
the gains from a commune, such as less crime and chronic diseases. never factor in ur financial models. and thats by design.
any way, all the knowing and truth, aint gonna do u no good…ur powerless and meaningless. the present iz a gift….
thnk u Mr Chris.
