I've never heard of knock hockey.

And you're so right though, the faces too, sorry to interrupt, the faces of the people watching RFK deliver this, whatever you want to call that, is dystopian.

It's so freaky.

Yeah, look, you want to know why people aren't having kids.

It's because this country didn't live up to its end of the bargain for

a couple of generations here, right?

I'm not gonna go deep down this, but there was essentially sort of like an unwritten handshake agreement between call it upper sort of millennials, Gen X with this country that said, hey, if we follow these subset of rules that this country has laid out before us, we go to school, we work hard, we get a job, we do all of these things, then we will be able to live as good of lives, if not better lives than our parents before us as they raised us.

And as that sort of generation continued to get older, the wealth disparity in this country and the wealth inequality in this country grew larger and larger.

And so all of a sudden, you have a lot of millennials and Gen X and older generations too, but I'm specifically focusing on this group right here, looking around and say, hey, we lived up to our bargain.

I went to college.

You know, I spent a lot of money.

I'm in debt, but I was told that after I got out of college and I get the job, then I could pay off the debt and maybe go on one or two nice vacations a year and take this money and put my kids through college, buy a house, do all of these things that

that again, I thought, I think we were all assuming if we followed these rules that we would sort of get to do.

But the reality is that that's just not where we are.

That's not the buying power that the money has right now.

That's not the types of jobs that are actually paying its citizens.

And then you see these AI companies out there just taking more and more jobs from folks.

And it's getting scary as far as, okay, now that we have kids, what's this going to be in another 25, 30?

How much more is this wealth disparity and this wealth inequality can continue to grow?

I mean, Brett, he just looks, he looks extra sleepy too as he's talking about all this.
