Buying a scratch card feels harmless.
But if every ticket guarantees a negative expected value…
are you paying for hope, not opportunity?

Basic math: prices can’t drop more than 100% (which is $0).
In Davos, Trump claimed US drug prices fell 1,000–2,000%. For a $200 script, that would mean the pharmacy owes you $4,000 to take the meds. Obviously, that’s not happening. You can’t go lower than zero.

Just ran the numbers on this BulkSupplements Creatine Monohydrate. At $26.97 for 200 servings, that's $0.14 per serving. Simple math, solid deal. #creatine #gains #mathmatters #costperserving #smartbuying
Sentiment, yes.
But if all of McDonald’s & Walmart’s CEO was distributed to their employees, it would be ~$10 more to each employee per year.

Bullshit. You can’t count. We can’t elect more than a small group of progressives. Moderates and conservatives = 95% of voters.

Fact check @arimelber.bsky.social. The 2000 Bush/Gore election was held in the last year of the 20th century. @kamalaharris.com is right. #mathmatters
I'm not. The same way I’m sure he can lower drug prices 1000% I’m sure I’m not tired of him.
1000%!

Biases & Rain 2/10 📉 Poor intuition about ratios: even if you know 7 is more likely than 11, you might underestimate how much. 7 is actually 3x more common. #MathMatters #Ratios #HiddenPatterns #Emberhart
Love helping my GR4 kiddos set Math goals for the year! So powerful to believe in themselves to reach high! #cobbschools #mathmatters
Too many folks read the "Headline" without reading 📚 the stories or trying to understand the true story and "long game"
To put it simply:
Carney has an PhD in Economics, while Trump thinks lowering prices 1000% makes business sense 🙄

A line graph titled “Why a Fixed Grant Does More at the Bottom – Significance = Assistance / Income (S = A / x)”. The x-axis shows baseline income before assistance (per month, in dollars) from 0 to 20,000. The y-axis shows significance (grant as a fraction of income) from 0 to 10+. A steep curve starts high on the left and drops rapidly toward zero as income increases. Three points are marked: • $100 → 10× income, with an arrow labeled “As income → 0, significance → ∞.” • $1,000 → 1× income. • $10,000 → 0.1× income (10%). The chart illustrates that a fixed grant has far greater proportional impact at very low incomes and the effect diminishes as income rises.
Assistance has 1/x power: the less you make, the more each dollar matters.
Recipients amplify it with creativity.
Screening wastes resources when the goal is impact.
Universality shifts policy from moralism to efficacy.

When learners can see how math works, working through each step of a problem, and understand the why behind the how, their confidence and comprehension grow.
That’s what evidence-based math learning looks like.
