Passive Investing, Beta, and Government Money Printing

In this episode, Curtis Yarvin argues that modern democracies may lack clear sovereignty and that technological acceleration and sovereign debt are exposing that weakness.

We also explore fiscal exhaustion, debt sustainability, and whether a system that cannot make decisive changes can survive compounding crises.
