Balaji at Network School: “we think the government should be 5% of GDP Vs the US (what would you zero out?) Federal spending is about 23–24% of U.S. GDP in recent years. Think of it as a big, lopsided pie

What to know about Tylenol, Folate, Autism (it’s fevers)
Lots of noise lately: RFK, Trump, Tylenol, folate, autism. Even GSK got pulled in. The Harvard/MIT crowd I read says: the Tylenol link is weak. Moms take Tylenol because they’re sick, and it’s the fever itself that’s more strongly tied
