To a degree, when you do see these sorts of behaviors, if you're like a WASP, like a very old school American, that is kind of foreign.

But it's like everybody else combined.

There's some truth.

Yeah, there is some truth that the United States, because of our founding culture being super hyper-Calvinist, we have this very uniquely individualistic culture.

And so to Jack's point, I remember a few years ago this discourse started on the right where they were like, you know, the nuclear family is actually bad and we should embrace multi-generational living.

And I'm like...

But we never have.

The United States has always been a very individualistic culture.

That's why we're so awesome.

That's why every American... I love this description of Americans that we're all temporarily embarrassed millionaires.

That is the reason why we are like, let's just go to the moon.

These sorts of things.

That actually is a very intrinsic to America.

By extension, I guess, the UK and Australia, they're kind of losing it.

um so you do see some of these things introduced and they're like passed off as conservative or right-wing but it's like it's just foreign to the united states and like the way it's being implemented it's like once you see it you're like well that's not quite us there's a reason why america's so unique so yeah and multi-generationally it's like to jack's point like old people don't want to be perceived as a burden on their kids which is totally different or the american thing actually you know somebody preserving too

Yeah, I mean, you can argue the merits of it, but, like, John Doyle made this point.

It was a really good point.

He was talking about how his neighbor's house burnt down, and the whole neighborhood came together, like, we're going to help you rebuild.

John Doyle.

John Doyle, yeah.
