During the Gilded Age of the late 1800's (one of many so-called 'Golden Ages'), monopolies, worker exploitation, political corruption, and unsafe products were rampant—profits came before ethics. 💚 #TheGoodMarket

#GoodMarkets have shaped history in powerful ways. From the ancient Silk Road connecting civilizations to modern farmers' markets fueling local economies. Fair and open trade drives innovation, culture, and community wealth. A strong market isn’t just business—it’s a force for progress. 💚

Founders are levelers 💚

Religious freedom wasn't just ethical, it was good for markets. In 17th-century Amsterdam thrived as a trade hub by welcoming religious minorities. The Edict of Nantes (1598) brought economic stability to France by tolerating Protestants. #TheGoodMarket 💚

Due process, rooted in Magna Carta (1215), ensures no one is punished except by “law of the land.” It lives on in the 5th & 14th Amendments, protecting life, liberty, and property. 💚 #GoodMarkets

Liberalism’s roots trace back to Enlightenment thinkers like John Locke, who championed consent-based governance, individual rights, and separation of church & state. His ideas in Two Treatises of Government (1690) laid the foundation for modern economic systems. 💚 #TheGoodMarket

$50k a year UBI for every American adult would create an equally proportional tax on purchasing power. But it would raise taxes by 2x the percentage points for all. This would obviously be great in tandem with cutting government spending in half. But we can't have both. 💚

“Government is necessary to preserve our freedom… yet by concentrating power in political hands, it is also a threat to freedom.” 💚 Milton Friedman

Tariffs are simply a regressive tax on the consumer. 💚 t.co/lwUwQfusrs

UBI is not a political agenda 💚

Encouragement is the best advice 💚

Committees don't tackle hard problems, teams sharing in the risk do. 💚
