Yeah, Barry.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

Yeah, so I'm going to pile on a little bit with it with Aaron.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

You know, here as well.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

I think part of the problem is that at one level, people don't know what they don't know.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

And the information they get is not very clear.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

And so it's very easy for that to get distorted.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

And so people may go down a track of supporting something or at least tacitly supporting something that if they had all the information in a clear way, they probably wouldn't support it.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

That being said, I think what's going to wind up happening is that when people start to be impacted directly by these things, that's going to be the wake up call.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

And I'll use Aaron's example of, you know, childhood cancer.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

When that hits, you know, in a community and they start to see that with their neighbors or their own family, it's like going to be, you know, like, all right, what?

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

you know, what the heck is going on here.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

So I think, and this is going to take time, clearly, for it to play out.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

The other thing is that rural America is, in some ways, going to be even more impacted by all these things that are going on.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

And at least, you know, demographically, that support for the current administration has been

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

you know, a lot more in rural areas.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

So when that comes home to roost, then maybe people will understand that.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

The other one last thing is that some of the public polling that I've seen has shown that there's been significant shifts, again, building on what Aaron said, that most people, you know, all now are seeing this are not supporting this.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

And that number continues to grow week to week and month to month.

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

And so,

Health Chatter
Addressing Health in Anxious Times

You know, I'll tee up because I know we're going to wind up going there during the show when we talk about what people can do.
