TechGod Joe Lonsdale and his wife formed a think tank to address societal problems.
He wants the homeless off the streets, at least at night. Exactly how this "saves capitalism" or deals with the myriad of root causes of homeless is unclear.
Cicero pushes forced addiction treatment for homeless persons.
Lonsdale stands to profit from addiction treatment through at least two 8VC affiliates, Tempero and Ritten.
A third stands to gain. Halo Health which addresses primary mental healthcare, both in person and virtually.
Also, 8VC has Galileo which delivers mental health services to underserved persons with complex and chronic conditions as part of its healthcare model. Hopscotch Primary Care does as well in its focus on rural communities.
Joe believes in stewardship to limited partners, which is definitely not the homeless or other little people.
He believes in patriotism but may side with the widespread position that criticism of Israel is automatically anti-Semitism.
When the colonists arrived in the free world didn't they have to camp outside?
Gotta love the liberty loving TechGods who suckle up to Uncle Sam's bank account in venture after venture after venture.
Add their getting government to make it a crime to sleep outside or criticize the State of Israel, as well as force people into addiction treatment, and they seem even further from their libertarian roots.
TechGods and the LP class enjoy superior influence on elected officials as today's landed, equity holding gentry. AI is going to unemploy people and Joe wants them jailed once they lose their home.
The greatest irony might be TechGods made billions from leveraging addiction.....and they may make billions more from that treatment.
