I can ask and I'll have my staff.

The discussion reminds me of a story.

Why are 86% of the Somalis still on Medicaid?
And why are the Hamongs doing better?
So they used to always make this argument that Sweden is so great because it's socialist and that Swedes are all just doing fine.
Everybody's happy in Sweden.
And so they were talking to Milton Friedman about that.
And he was over there and they were bragging about the country, about how great Sweden was and everything.
And they were attributing it to socialism.
And he looked at them and he says, you know, the Swedes are very happy.
They're also very happy in Minnesota.
If you look at the statistics of people from Sweden who immigrated to Minnesota, they're kicking butt.
And it gets back to what is the argument.
