And if you baking a better product that make all of America look good, consumers are happy, money's flowing, right? That's the argument. And again, using the Tesla as an example, like I just say it right now, didn't I just say that? I'm sorry, I'm just talking. If every electric car in the future, if you want to do self-driving mode, you have to use this because it's the default setting.

And this gives Tesla no incentive to like they could charge every car company whatever they want, because who else you going to go to? Which means that that is going to raise the prices for all of our cars, which means it's going to rain the prices for chips and all this good stuff.

This just makes you by yourself rich and all of us got to suffer by it. So that's that's the theory. Nobody's happy with that except for y'all. And we just decided as a nation back in the 1700s that we wasn't going to be like that. In theory. Now, what they told them that they had to do was break the company up. You have to put Windows in one place as one company and Office as another company.

Is that how you understand Microsoft? Of course not, because that didn't happen. Essentially, what they did was just they paid the fines, they did what they had to do, and then they just promised to not be jerks. It just really, really ain't nothing happened. So ultimately, nothing changed. Netscape ended up selling to AOL.
