Said on Newt's World

“If you're an expansion state… you're drawing 90% of the funding. In other words, for every dollar the state puts in, you get nine from the government. So this provider taxing is a really good deal. I draw it down, then I spend it out somewhere, and I get nine bucks back.” — Joel Zinberg, Newt's World

“They say, 'oh, look at the cost… as a percentage of spending in Medicare as opposed to the private plans,' which is not what you really want to look at. You want to look at the cost per enrollee. And if you look at that, then you see that the private plans are as good or better than these other plans.” — Joel Zinberg, Newt's World

“We have a system of co-insurance and co-pays that's meant to discourage people obtaining so-called free care that maybe they don't need so much. And now you eliminate that. All of a sudden, you get a rush for people seeking care, increased demand. And because the medical supply doesn't increase, you may end up displacing people who have more urgent needs with people who have less urgent needs.” — Joel Zinberg, Newt's World

“At this point, because AI has become so good at programming, I don't think that CUDA is necessarily their moat or it's not a moat that will stand. At this point, I think their biggest moat is the amount of cash that they have.” — Rakesh Kumar, Newt's World

“I don't mind bubbles. I know bubbles have a negative connotation, but bubbles are not a bad thing as long as there is clear physical build-out that happens accompanying bubbles that helps the society. … Today, more than half of UK's railway network is still from those days of railway mania.” — Rakesh Kumar, Newt's World
