Like Dr. Ron Paul used to say, when you spend beyond your means, you're destined to live beneath your means.

Yeah, well, there's that's most of it, right?

Yeah.

Well, like number one.

Yeah.

If you if you go, hey, I think which, by the way, no one in Congress.

I mean, short of like Thomas Massey, maybe maybe Rand Paul, but like no one else in Congress is even like suggesting an idea.

So so radical.

But if I were to throw out the radical idea that we should go back to pre pandemic level spending.

So go all the way back to the crazy year of 2019 when it was anarchy or whatever.

That was just, they'll all tell you the world's gonna end if we do that.

And even when they're making up these absolutely ridiculous claims about how many people are gonna die if you cut government spending, which is all just totally absurd.

But then they never seem to go like, well, how many people are gonna die if I keep letting DC have all these war-making powers?

How many people are going to die if the president is able to fund a proxy war whenever he wants to?

I mean, look at this shit, dude.

I took so much... You know, whatever, I'm not... But I took a lot of heat for the stuff I said on the show here a few years ago about the war in Ukraine.

Look at it now, dude.

And I don't think they're about to end the thing, which we could talk about, but I think they're putting poison pills in these negotiations already.

That's what it looks like to me.

But...
