it's actually a good point

you may still think being illiquid equals being poor

idk I feel like it‘s just cope, that argument is so out there

because it is completely detached from reality. Where does this person take their arguments? From their private perception. So why should I care, it‘s not based on evidence

so are you saying americans are more illiquid than europeans lol? and that americans have more of their wealth locked in public goods? his evidence for his point is sufficient imo

okay but how do you know he hasn't done that in his private time and he just prefers arguing for it qualitatively rather than quantitatively for the sake of brevity on twitter?

im sure if we looked up that data we would find that it in fact corroborates his point

No I‘m saying that all of this is nonsense. If we want to understand who has more wealth locked up in public goods we can surely just look that up in data, so unless we don‘t do that, there‘s no point in discussing our favorite fantasy facts
