There's no reason that lumber and steel and electronics, all the inputs of cars and houses cost more than they ever did before.

That's a policy-driven outcome.

If we get the policies to make those things cheaper, then they could build more of them, then it'll be okay.

That's a great point.

That's a fantastic point you bring up about the oil.

And I've been meaning to show these two charts on the podcast for a while.

That one's production, so I was going to show that one second.

Biggest oil reserves in the world.

The U.S.

is way down at the bottom there.
