articulate a problem really easily and digestibly, I think you've done a good thing because people can understand, explain to their friends, word of mouth spreads, and then there is an incentive. Then you get a win as a politician when you talk about this and you stand up for this and you build it.

Everyone who shoots a regulation goes away. So you brought this up. I want to bring this up because I... Well, I agree with everything you said, to be honest. I think we talked about this before even this book came out, because we saw that think piece by Ezra, blah, blah, blah. I agree. I think there's many rules that have not done what they're intended.

And they said, if you bring us a cobra skull, because they want to kill all the cobras, if you bring us a cobra skull, we'll pay you some money. We're going to kill all the cobras. People started breeding the cobras because there was money in it.

And I have, at this point, no hope or goodwill towards it when I look what's actually happened and what cuts have actually...
