Yeah, very much so.

Yeah, yeah. I was at the White House when it was announced, et cetera. So I've been involved in a lot of these things right from the beginning. But I am a meritocratic egalitarian. I care deeply about that. I am a constitutional libertarian. I am a constructive contrarian. Those are my three philosophical bases. I haven't changed one bit in the 70 years since I entered college.

But the world around me has changed dramatically. And it's interesting, you know, my book, The Preventive State, I started writing this 60 years ago. I wrote my first article on prevention in the 1960s. And now all of these things are coming out. The COVID vaccines, the attempts to prevent Iran from developing a nuclear weapon.

All of these are preventive measures that we now have to create a jurisprudence around because we live in such a cataclysmic world. There are so many dangers that we face every single day, and we can prevent them because we've developed AI methods of predicting and preventing. But we can't do it without diminishing freedom a little bit.

And it was Benjamin Franklin who said, those who would deny basic freedoms in order to achieve a little bit of security deserve neither. But In my book, The Preventive State, I try to argue that we can sometimes diminish a little bit of inessential freedoms in order to get a great deal of prevention.

If we could have prevented 9-11, if Israel could have prevented October 7th by falsely arresting a half a dozen people, that would be a tradeoff that would be worth it. And we have to figure out how to prevent these cataclysmic, situations from occurring.

And we're seeing the hard left and the radicals and the terrorists and the people who call for global intifada trying to introduce massive, massive violence into our society. And we have to figure out ways of preventing it legally, lawfully.
