And by the way, they're probably right directionally about where our whole world is headed, kinda like the internet.
Um, but some of the spending is indiscriminate.
I try not to be prescriptive in the book because when I started this book, I thought I was really just trying to write a story about a particular moment in time.
And as I was writing it, and obviously all of these things are happening in the news that we're reporting on every day and we're reading about in in the pages of the papers and talking about on TV and on your podcast and everything else.
It started, you know, there were these like alarm bells going off.
Oh my goodness, this is parallel to this and this is parallel to that.
So I I I just want to sort of say up front, that wasn't it wasn't the goal.
The fact that the book is coming out now is it's only a function of the fact that I finally finished the book.

He was sort of a philosopher king.
Um, one of the would have been if there was a if there was a Forbes list back then, he would have been on it.
He ran General Motors, was the one who actually decided uh to start lending people money to.
Buy cars.
