The richest people feel that, but it's not true.

But everybody else kind of, even that

weird, like you're rich, but you don't feel rich that we were talking about with the new poverty line and kind of what the middle class is here.

So I think doing it in a targeted way that showed that you're thinking about people in the lower and middle income brackets, especially those with kids, would be very useful.

But I like the discussion.

I think that it's a smart one, but we have to make sure that everything is still funded.

And I don't know what the appetite is to raise taxes on the federal level to compensate.

I do.

I want to talk to you about it because I allegedly have a good accountant, but I still think it's bad.

That lead to a good decision.

So I think there's a difference between who's the frontrunner right now and who's the frontrunner when everybody is standing up on that stage and they're going to be like 18 to 22 people.

They'll probably have to be a kiddie stage as well for the number of folks that are going to throw their hat in the proverbial ring.

What I think Gavin Newsom has done that's really important is he answered the call.

Democrats have been flailing since Donald Trump got back into office.

The 2024 election sent shockwaves through everyone, right?

Like our usual coalition completely shattered.

with minority voters, with young voters, and things look like they're rebounding.

But Gavin Newsom basically said, like, I'm going now because somebody has to go now.

And I think that we really needed that.

And he also, you know, Prop 50 is a really big deal.
