Yeah, I agree with that.

And I do think that would be a good use of capital rather than going to the government, going to jobs.

But I mean, I would want to make sure that they stay true to that.

Like, you know, when the government bailed out the banks in 2008, they said, yeah, contingent upon you giving that out and lending it to stimulate the economy.

They didn't lend it.

They gave it to themselves.

So I would want to make sure that we upheld that.

But yeah,

Yeah, I just think that to maintain superpower status and to maintain a strong middle class, that we have to be mindful and put a lot of thought and energy into keeping jobs here and not offshoring jobs because that helps large companies.

That doesn't help the middle class and it doesn't put America in a position of strength.

I think it's unsustainable to have long-term people if you don't have both, because I think that if you, you know, you could be making plenty of money, but if it's not an enjoyable place to be at, I think you're going to burn out and resent it.

I mean, the corporate America culture is just so poisonous and unpleasant to be around.

I was at a big giant pharma company for a couple of years and, you know, like

Super nice buildings, super nice amenities and all that, but everybody just acts like a total weirdo in those places.

It's like everybody's walking on eggshells, being politically correct.

You're afraid to say something slightly controversial because HR reports are flying around left and right, so that's no fun.

And, you know, the right culture, like the startup type of culture is so enjoyable and fun and you create memories and everything.

So, of course, money is, you know, you have to make a good amount of money to be happy at a job.

But also the culture, you can't have an enjoyable workplace without a good culture.

There hasn't been a job shortage lately, it feels like.
