And I think right now in this moment, the upside in truth is probably not a lot.

I think that a lot of people at this table and a lot of listeners would applaud those people, but it's unclear to me unless it's done as a collective that it would have any real impact.

Right now, given what's happening in Washington in terms of the Republican control of the White House, of Congress, of the Senate,

having even the business community come out in any meaningful way and say, excuse me, we don't like it this way.

It's unclear that that would have some kind of impact.

The downside is,

I assume, is that you sit there and you say, if I don't do this, or if I raise my hand and say this, is that I'm going to be slaughtered.

That that's what's happened in America.

And by the way, it depresses me to say this.

That's where we are.

It's like a mafioso thing.

It's like, if I raise my hand and say there's a problem, I will be slaughtered.

That's what I think is, I mean, hopefully not literally slaughtered, but I think that is the calculus.

And I think the calculus is all of these people are thinking,

I want to be here.

I want the company to be here in not just tomorrow, but in two and three and four and five and 10 years from now.

And can I just play this out?

Can I just stick this out long enough to get to the other side, whatever you think the other side looks like?

So I do think that behind the scenes, there is consternation and anxiety and all sorts of things about what this administration does.

No question.
