to new zealand to canada the the eu to eastern europe um various other countries around the world we just don't make a lot ireland uk etc so i'd love to see that brought back those are great high-paying jobs and it allows us to control narrative globally and that's really important if we want to be a world leader we got to both lead by example but we also got to
Yeah, you keep looking for those tipping points that are maybe going to swing the pendulum back to a centrist or a constructive sort of form of government. And it seemed like even the fires might have been that. And I don't know if the fires were.

they just want to make them happy enough that they don't have another 1989 and part of that is providing tangible things that allow them to have what they need and some of what they want and then creating a narrative that fills in the gap that they don't have
Thanks for having me, guys.
