🚨David Friedberg: "If I saw us adding a terawatt of electricity production capacity per year, I would shut the f**k up about the debt."

@friedberg on E229:

 "The critical linchpin for all of those other points of abundance being unleashed is the energy equation, and this is where I look very clearly and plainly at what China's doing versus where we're at today."

"We've got stated intentions, but the actions are where we're still... you know, we gotta start showing up."

"So the number of watts that the US can make at any given point in time is one terawatt, one trillion watts."

"Meanwhile, right now China is making three terawatts and they're scaling up to make eight."

"We are at one, going to two over the next 15 years."

@DavidSacks:

"Let's assume that we have enough power."

Friedberg:

"If we have enough power, the $38T of debt doesn't matter."

Sacks:

"That's a pretty important conclusion because if that's true and we can grow our way out of this problem, then that is an alternative to having this austerity approach."
