Taiwan, I just described three nations which are in the top 10 trading partners of the United States who are like, I don't know.
I don't know about this.
And, Sagar, I don't even...
Iran is the excuse, but it's also the truth.
Yes, that's right.
And is there something we do about it?
Yeah.
We would have to basically Manhattan Project our defense industrial base.
Here's the problem.
It's not a horrible idea, but it would be a horrible idea under the current political regime.
And I'm not just talking about Trump.
I'm talking about both of them.
Because under the current political regime, what we know is that, let's say, some—
neoliberal Democrat or Trump, the neocon Republican, if you give them more weapons, they're gonna use it for more shit like Iran and Israel.
The whole point would be to have a sensible strategic defense and say, we're gonna use this to protect us
and to protect Japan, and to protect South Korea, and maybe Taiwan, maybe, right?
Which even then, it's basically a dream.
But we want to make sure that it doesn't get invaded, or at least we maintain some strategic connection to make sure we can get all these chips, which are deeply valuable.
All those democracies, it's bullshit, and everybody knows it.
But even that, under the current regime, we know that if we put $1.5 billion into our Pentagon budget, the vast majority of it will be squandered into the mansions of Northern Virginia.
