Can you walk us through just how you think about how we get that extra 200 or 300 basis points of growth and where you need to have less regulation so that you can have more entrepreneurship or more regulation to kind of constrain folks?

Sacks, final question for you.

And I just want to say, JD, I think your answers were fantastic here today. And I really do appreciate you coming on and answering these questions very thoughtfully. And, you know, from my perspective, when I heard that you were announced as the VP, I thought, well, this is great.

A young person who's got a lot of experience in venture capital and building things in the world and somebody who comes from humble beginnings like the four of us and believes that a meritocracy where people work hard and get reward for it. So you check all my boxes in that way. And I really think I feel much better. I have my issues with your boss.

But when you talk about the bite-sized steps to it, I think one framework to look at your relationship with Trump is he says things at the top of the highest vibration.

And if you haven't read JD's book, I read your book long before all of this. And I just want to say your book was so inspiring. And I have recommended it long before today to literally hundreds of people. It's a fantastic read if you haven't read it.

They're stealing stuff. So we had JD Vance here this morning. He did a great job. And one of the things is there's this image on X of basically you, Bobby, Trump and JD are like the Avengers, I guess.
