Wow, man.

We have.

I don't know that we're missing much.

I think you're not just early.

I think you're the first, and I think that there's going to be new developments in the story as the second generation and the third generation of those come.

opioid products come out and what we're really going to be dealing with is a phenomenon of how do we as a society control the kind of mind-altering substances and addictive drugs that we allow to be sold at gas stations and convenience stores.

Because right now the regulatory barriers to creating marketing and spreading a product like that all across the United States are very, very low.

and it's it's when there's such a large amount of money to be made it's

There's really nothing stopping them from doing this.

And you don't have to be wearing your tinfoil hat to see how it's in the interest of America's enemies to have everybody addicted to gas station heroin and have everybody smoking gas station weed and have everybody sucking on these little vape pens made by Chinese chemists in Flushing, New York.

And who knows what else they're putting in them.

So we've allowed the proliferation of networks.

And even if they're just totally benign, just here to make money, it's not in America's best interest to have this.

But I think we both know that, you know, drug trafficking networks

that are backed by the Chinese Communist Party, explicitly backed and connected to the Chinese Communist Party, do not have America's interests in mind.

And they're co-locating their facilities next to sensitive infrastructure, next to military bases, next to places that would be ideal surveillance targets.

And they're doing that on purpose.

And heaven forbid, you know, some kind of a conflict breaks out or there's an escalation

to the geopolitical tensions before we're able to fully wrap our arms around this.

But I'm hopeful that the Trump administration, who is aware of this problem and is working to find the legal levers that can be pulled in order to control the problem and eliminate the problem, I'm hopeful that they'll be able to put an end to it.
