Honestly felt like there were way too many plot holes. Especially the last fight scene
Natural gas prices are probably 1/3 the cost of Europe and Asia. It only reaches the global market via LNG which is significantly higher priced than local market.
George Washington: ~$525–$594 million (often cited around $587M or $594M). He owned vast land (over 8,000 acres at one point), plantations, and other assets. His estate at death in 1799 was valued at about $780,000 contemporary dollars. He was one of the richest Americans of his era. ?
• Thomas Jefferson: ~$212–$285 million (commonly ~$236–$240M). Inherited land from his father, built Monticello, but died deeply in debt (over $2M in today’s terms). Wealth from plantations and land. ?
• James Madison: ~$101–$137 million (around $113M–$136.7M). Inherited large landholdings (thousands of acres) from wealthy parents; later faced financial struggles from farming and family issues. ?
• John Hancock: Over $9 million (in 2022 dollars). Merchant wealth from trade; a very rich man in his time but not on the scale of Washington. ?
• Benjamin Franklin: Estimates vary widely—often $10M–$90M today, sometimes lower (e.g., equivalent of several million from his printing, publishing, real estate, and investments). He was self-made and retired comfortably but gave much away and wasn’t in the planter elite class. One older ranking put him as one of the richest in the 1780s. ?
• John Adams: ~$21.5 million. From law, farming, and his wife’s family wealth (Quincys). ?
• Alexander Hamilton: More modest; estimates around $10M or so adjusted (some higher figures for relative status). He was not from wealth and focused on public service/law. ?
As someone else mentioned, these will be the most expensive diapers in the world. You easily could have partnered with local churches to provide this

Fake. Where does the energy come from to do the conversion? Don’t be this gullible.
I imagine 3 million people die every year of voting age. Guessing at least 2/3rds are registered voters. So 2 million dead people on polls each year. Surprised NC doesn’t have more

I just don’t see a team looking at his film and thinking he’s there future. I’m betting he’s a day 3 (rd 4+)

Govt has propped up many an industry and been repaid as long as the company had a true need in society (eg not climate change related). Banks and autos have paid us back in the past I believe. The intel investment looks pretty sound. Airlines suck as an investment so I’m hopeful we just let JetBlue buy them as they offered years ago.

It’s similar to average calorie intake, the more prosperous we get the more glutinous we become in various forms.

It’s why investors believe despite efficient means of production and population flattening , we’ll continue to have increasing demand for food and energy
