    The election is shaping up to cost $10B across all races. Really a drop in the bucket within our $5T national GDP. Would be nice if some of that money went to working class folks doing productive labor. But I’m betting the lion’s share of it goes to tech and media companies charging four figures an hour to make a photo of a pregnant woman with six fingers stutter out AI generated prompts on who to cheer for.
