I'm just telling you what's happening.

You can't run a scam anymore.

for fucking years and then turn around to a bunch of people and go, hey, that scam we were running, we're not doing that anymore.

But you still like the food, right?

Don't you want to stay here for our fish pudding?

No.

Out.

They leave.

They go to Dubai and they go to wherever they go and it doesn't even matter.

A lot of them leave.

Some of them stay.

But a lot of those people who lived there primarily because it was a scam and it had things they liked, but the reason they liked those things so much is because they didn't have to pay for them.

They didn't have to pay for them.

Now, we know that, by the way, and I've talked endlessly on this show about what a dysfunctional way to run a society this is.

We know that.

But we've done it for a long time.

And when you make an abrupt change like that, it does have an effect.

So when all of these AI companies converge on San Francisco to do things that all of us might not like, the actual metropolis of San Francisco starts looking a lot better.

People start pumping money into it.

People care about it.
