How do you invest that back into the economy?
And the US is much, much better at that.

that the EU has going on, is that going to make a huge difference?
It's not going to turn us into Silicon Valley tomorrow, no.
How do you get off US tech?
I mean, I tried to find somebody recently and I did in January who had managed to dump all his US tech.
But that's very, very hard.

We're joined at the hip might be too strong, but we are very dependent on US tech.
We like it.
We'll keep using it.
