Well, it gets back to the tariffs question, which is you want people to be playing on a fair and balanced playing field. If you're country X is denying licenses to country Y, then country Y should do that to country X, right? As just a general thing to get back to a playing field. And by the way, there's lots of bad actors in the world. Yes.
Sometimes, by the way, when the bully hits you, the only way to stop the bully from hitting you again or hitting someone else is to hit them back pretty hard, right? Because then they learn, oh, there's consequences. Sometimes the rule of the five-year-old playing ground is actually, in fact, the rule that countries live by.

So this is maybe my greatest hope out of an administration that promises to be a wrecking ball to a history of regulation, because the things that we have done in regulating nuclear have been destructive to, for example, climate change, because you're using a lot more coal versus nuclear. I mean, we see great examples in France as how to use nuclear.

Well, the technology has advanced over the decades in nuclear fission. You know, people have invented nuclear fission plants that are powered. It's called TerraPower powered on nuclear waste. So it's a way of consuming the waste and getting rid of it and converting it into power. There's all of these things that are really, really good to do.

And a regulatory agency backed up by fearful public opinion, unknowledgeable, ignorant public opinion, but fearful too, hasn't done anything about this. And then you say, well, what's the best way we worried about running out of electricity We're worried especially about green electricity going and doing this.

And so I myself have been investing in both fission and fusion over the last five to 10 years entirely philanthropically. I have no idea how to invest in this. When I do these investments, I write them to zero in my book. I have no idea. what the economic outcomes are of this, unlike like internet investing or software investing or what's the rational way of doing it.

But creating the technology for the benefit of society and humanity is extremely important. I've been putting lots of money into this out of a desire for putting America in a much better position, helping the world with this new technology, etc.

And given that it is an inevitable, it's a physics process. I worry about that. That's one of the, I think, likely outcomes of the next administration that will be a serious impact. Now, that being said, like you said, okay, bull bear on the next administration, they'll go, oh no, climate change is a fiction and it's a liberal conspiracy and you know, dah, dah, dah.
