I think you just have to be more exceptional than ever today as a young person.

And that doesn't happen overnight.

You know, it's a rigorous thing that you have to be obsessive about.

Not everybody's going to do it because it's probably like an 80-20 thing with people who are willing to do what it takes to be exceptional.

But that's my opinion on it.

That's funny.

Who still lives at home sits on the couch.

Something's deeply wrong here.

Normally, the laws of business or manufacturing or creating a product is that it gets cheaper and easier to make over time.

Something's fundamentally wrong here with the structure of things or one piece of it where it's somehow getting more and more expensive to manufacture because you're supposed to be able to make it cheaper and then have better margins on it.

Like you said, the fact that there's all these regulations involved, it also goes down to the cost of materials.

Those are a whole other thing.

That's expensive, like steel and components and copper and all that.

Yeah, like this is a core function of the cost of living, like food, housing, transportation.

I always say those three things, like that's what creates poverty and non-poverty.

Like if people could afford those things and reasonably with an average salary.

Should it be like the AI thing where they did the federal AI bill?

And I'm not saying that's a good idea.

I'm just tossing it out there.

You think that'd be helpful if there was like a federal emissions standard?
