And this is what I've gotten so just upset about over the years. And not only that, even if you don't care about, I don't know, impoverished people and you only care about winning elections, right now, because of the population shifts, New York, Rhode Island, Illinois, Minnesota, Oregon, California, very left-leaning states, are on track to lose seats in the House of Congress, right?

To lose electoral votes. And then Florida, Texas, Idaho, Utah, very red states are gaining them. And so if this trend continues, it also would make it much, much, much, much harder for a future Democratic candidate to win the presidency because usually it's all based on these swing states.

But that's not going to matter if some of the most powerful blue states just don't have as much representation because there's less people. And so the biggest thing is this comes down to the fact that in Democrat-led cities in America, there is an enormous amount of processing and permitting and legal process that prevents things from being built. The most obvious is housing.

So in 2023, SF, San Francisco, issued about 7,500 new housing permits. San Francisco has a city of about a million. 7,500 new housing permits. Boston, all of Boston, Metro, had 10,500. New York City, Newark and Jersey City together, a little less than 40,000. And then Houston in Texas, which is a dog shit place. No offense to anybody who lives there. Ha ha ha! Issued almost 70,000 homes.

That is 10 times the amount of San Francisco. That's how many new homes are being built. And then guess what? Shocker. Houston has the lowest homelessness rate of any U.S. major city.

Yeah. Okay. Some of the stats I thought looking into this of just San Francisco versus Houston is really interesting. San Francisco has about a million residents. Houston has over two million. So Houston has twice as many people, at least, right? Houston... Houston spends $70 million a year approximately. And that's like an increase from previous years on combating homelessness.
