Hurling ordure at the TREACLES, especially those closely related to LessWrong.

AI-Industrial-Complex grift is fine as long as it sufficiently relates to the AI doom from the TREACLES. (Though TechTakes may be more suitable.)

This is sneer club, not debate club. Unless it's amusing debate.

[Especially don't debate the race scientists, if any sneak in - we ban and delete them as unsuitable for the server.]

“California is, I believe, the only state to give health insurance to people who come into the country illegally,” Kauffman said nervously. “I think we probably should not be providing that.”

“So you’d rather everyone just be sick, and get everyone else sick?” another reporter asked.

“That’s not what I’m saying,” said Kauffman.

“Isn’t that effectively what happens?” the reporter countered. “They don’t have access to health care and they just have to get sick, right?”

Kauffman contemplated that one for a moment. “Then they have to just get sick,” he said. “I mean, it’s unfortunate, but I think that it’s sort of impossible to have both liberal immigration laws and generous government benefits.”

Do I need to comment on this one?

one thing that's so funny to me about this is that of course you're not supposed to say "we're going to brutalize poor people so billionaires don't have to pay more tax." you're supposed to say a rising tide lifts all boats, that kind of thing, and in fact there's a pic in the article where he's holding a sign about how a bigger pie means bigger slices or something to that effect. but as soon as he opens his mouth he just throws "we're going to take the healthcare" out there, because he has no self awareness, no critical thinking, no understanding of what in fact he is trying to do

These people are convinced it's the poorest that are getting a free lunch.
