Let's take a listen.

understand that all right so uh leaving aside that last part which is an absolute lie that they refuse to negotiate on enrichment um that is just simply not true but there's a um isn't it something rob could you imagine having an american a republican war hawk actually say about another country well you know their economy is in shambles because look all they're investing in are missiles

They're just building missiles instead of, you know, investing that money in their economy or something like that.

You're like, yeah.

Do you know what Iran spends per year on defense, Rob?

It's like, I think, under $10 billion.

You know what we spend every year on missiles?

We blow through, and I mean this, we've blown through substantially more than Iran's entire military budget in the last five weeks.

Right.

So, yeah, maybe that is that isn't great for an economy when all of your resources are going toward things that blow other things up rather than, say, you know, schools and businesses and roads and airports or whatever.

But I don't know your thoughts.

And I'll go for it.

Well, also, but also that's that actually doesn't apply to Iran.

You know what I mean?

And I don't even care whether it was a government or whether Iran went anarcho capitalist tomorrow and it was private defense firms or something like that.

See, the thing is, America spending all this money on defense is stupid because we are the United States of America.

We can destroy the entire world with a few good submarines that we have.

You know what I'm saying?

Like we're not in a defenseless position at all.

Nobody, nobody can fuck with us.
