You're going to see change.

It's not just... And you have to recognize that. You have to recognize it. And it's going to be mistakes are going to be made. But the problem is here... We have to do this remedy and we've got to get there as quickly as we can. And another thing to remember is, you know, in the first administration, there weren't that many people who agreed with us. Right.

As you say, there was the president who people everybody thought was crazy in this area and me who they thought was maybe crazier. But the Overton window of acceptability has moved.

And so a lot more people understand the crisis a lot. And in fairness, the data has helped us make our case that you have to do this. So I think people are going to be more accepting of it. But you're going to have disruption. You're going to have the people who are benefiting now benefiting less, and they're not going to like it.

You know, it is. You know, there was this thing called concentrated benefits and diffuse payments. This guy Buchanan, who was the economist, and he basically talked about the political system. And he said that, you know, sort of things happen when the person who gets the concentrated benefit, he is more motivated to to get his way and to push his way through all the people with diffuse payments.

And we've kind of had that system. My hope is that we can kind of reverse that and push back on those people who have had the concentrated benefits and give more of the benefits to the people who until now at least have been relatively quiet and just accepting of a pretty bad hand dealt to them.

So, Tucker, I think there's going to be disruption and disruption is going to have some prices go up and some won't. So let's think about inflation just the way we should think about it. One, inflation is a systemic thing. It's not like your shirt costs more. If your pants cost less, that's not inflation. That's just a more expensive shirt. Right.

So the question is whether it's going to systemically raise prices. A lot of people would say, including Milton Friedman, that that's really a monetary phenomenon.
