And afterwards, one of the admissions people came to me and said, you know, this was so great and you were so funny.

But in the future, when you come, like, maybe don't talk about that because you wouldn't get in now.

like you then wouldn't get in now.

And I said, do you know how horrified you should be to say that out loud?

Like, cause you just admitted you would have passed on me and look at me, you have me speaking here today.

I think that there is a reality.

And I mean, again, I don't want to sound like me in college saying there's no war but the class war.

But I do think that, you know, if you really care, this is why I always think it's funny when like right wing conservatives, you know, I debated with Matt Walsh on The Daily Wire about this because he was very gung ho about how we got to get rid of no fault divorce.

You know, the no fault divorce is to blame for the demise of marriages, which is kind of like saying like emergency rooms are to blame for the number of injuries people have.

Like you're mistaking cause and effect and you're thinking barriers to exit.

I would actually say barriers to entry makes more sense.

Like you got to, you know, it's the most legally significant thing you're ever going to do other than die.

And you don't even have to take a test, you know, before you do it or fill out like there's no waiting period, nothing like that.

But if the right really cared about marriage and keeping marriages together, they would care about creating economic stability.

They would care about creating opportunities for people to go to college and to be able to get educated.

They would look at the raw data and say, hey, this improves marriage outcomes.

So let's feed that.

And that, by the way, would have a lot of other cascading effects because that would increase the number of people that don't deal with, you know, substance use disorder, which, again, when you take that demographic out, improves the marriage rate.

So all of these things, they're all tied to each other.

And the answer is not that difficult to suss out, but it's not going to be popular among the left or the right.
