Balaji Srinivasan lives in the richest, most technological advanced country in the world and he is talking about exit. I am no fan of too much regulation but sometimes it come in to existence for a reason because we live in a society and need some rules in order to function better.

Hilarious how he shows SV eating other places and cites examples of companies who are in existence because of the content created by others (Hollywood, music industry etc).



His use of "exit" was more abstract than physical location, though from his description of the reasons his father left India we see that sometimes you have to do that, too. He mentioned "Hirschmann's Treatise," in passing, which you might find illustrative:

I didn't watch the stream but wait... Qatar and Luxemburg are not the most technologically advanced, but Japan and Finland are not the richest countries. I don't think the country you're talking about exists.


You could argue how you measure it. US has the most worth clearly. On a per person level tiny Luxemburg might have higher rate but clearly not the power the US has/
