But if you just look over time, it's really clear the relationship between how well is your average working middle class person doing and their quality of life, their cost of life. and the cost of electricity and cost of power. And it's crazy we're not just like ramping up and cutting things to do this.

This is a key national security thing too, because we need manufacturing here to be affordable and competitive. in order for our national security. You know, David, when you texted me last minute to join this, I was actually in a meeting with our friend from Founders Fund who's building nuclear fuel again for the first time in the US because that's actually gone away too.

And so that needs to be approved. But, you know, I know Chris Wright, he's a nominee for the new, you know, energy, secretary of energy. And he, you know, he's super pro-liberty guy, but super pro-cheap energy guy and he's pro-nuclear. So I think we have some really great people who care about this. We're going to be fighting hard for it.

If we're going to say 100 years, though, I mean, sorry to interrupt, if we're going to say 100 years, technology changes, it's very clear you could probably do it from space if you really wanted to. I mean, this sounds crazy, but you probably could have tons of these in space. I mean, 100 years is far.

Austin City Council is not perfect. Austin, they call it the blueberry and the tomato soup. So there may be a tiny bit of banking going on, but despite that, you're able to build there and everywhere else around it, you're building like mad. So it works. There's plenty of supply. I agree.

The thing that really pissed everyone off with Gary, I mean, I love you probably seen like, I think both Coinbase with Brian and the Winklevoss twins that put something out, they won't even hire anyone who worked with Gary on any of this stuff they were doing. And the reason they're that angry at them is they were purposely not defining the rules in certain cases and then going after people

Well, they'd meet with you if you were a big donor to the left. They wouldn't meet with you otherwise. That was part of it too. That was sketchy. That was why SBF got tons of meetings, but Brian got none, right? I mean, it's nonsense like that.

We can't stop you legally, but watch out. It was really sketchy. It was Sherrod Brown, who now is out of office, who led this, the senator from Ohio.
