Veteran and CEO Says Business, Not Bullets, Key To Winning Afghan War with Matt Griffin of CombatFlipFlops EP 242

Thank you very much.

And we saw women that were truly oppressed.

You know, they were beaten down by violence, purposefully limited in their education and have absolutely no hope.

But at the same time, too, they're the ones who are the centers of gravity of their families.

And so our thought while we were there is if we can just educate those families, pretty soon we'll educate communities, and then you'll defend against radicalism.

So if you really want to defeat radicalism in the recruitment-based forum, you just have to educate women.

I believe that so much.

I have leveraged every single credit card of mine to the hilt.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

Yeah, we truly believe that down to who we are.

You know, we've been at the very pointy end of the sphere and we've done between Lee and I over 300 special operations, direct action missions.

And we're telling people that this is a much better way to have a positive impact in those communities.

So the first thing I would do is I would I would establish a free trade agreement for any country that we are currently fighting to enable their small business owners a competitive advantage.

And we've been in Afghanistan for 15 years now.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

It's still not a free trade agreement.

I pay 17 percent tariffs on all my products that I bring in.

So what it means is anytime we import any product into our country, we put a tax on it.

And so it's just a service-based fee they charge on American businesses for doing business overseas.
