Did Chamath really say on the latest episode that it's better to have billionaires in government because they don't need more money and will do what's right?

He then says that the economy is "far too complicated to be run by theoreticians."

So basically someone like Linda McMahon is the right choice for the country over some dork PHD economist whose life work is rubbish because they've never worked for a FAANG company (or been "in the area"). These are two of the worst non-Sacks takes I've ever heard on the pod.

I have issues with Krugman at times, but this article does a good job of outlining the flaw in this thinking: https://hbr.org/1996/01/a-country-is-not-a-company
