And as he explained it, these people then would have a lot of money. It's not that they have five million. If you're going to spend five million, you have a lot more. So you would come in and you would buy things and hire people and pay taxes and it would be good for us.

But most importantly, we would get around the special dispensation for techies and skilled people that's causing so much trouble because we're letting in people under certain visas to work. And we're told that they're PhDs and they're special and they're not always. And so they're taking jobs away from coders. But this time we're telling the employer, the Apples, the Googles, the Facebooks,

So you need 1,000 highly skilled engineers from Taiwan, from South Korea, from India, anywhere. You're going to pay the $5 million to bring them in. And I don't know. There's wrinkles. And he didn't spell it. Would the $5 million be a one-time fee so then they could renew it under a regular green card process? Or would they have to keep paying? A lot of things that are up in the air.

But here's what I want to make the point. Donald Trump really does believe that he can balance the budget if he does four things that no one's ever thought of before. Number one. massive cuts. I'm not talking about here and there, but a trillion dollars. We're spending a trillion point seven that we don't have this year. And that's down from Joe Biden's record.

He had the record of the most debt piled up in four years, more even than the COVID Trump problem. So that's number one. He thinks he can get a trillion dollars. Then they believe that for all the braggadocio about the 25% tariffs, they were willing to negotiate reciprocity. Canada, you have 5% on average, we will have 5%. Germany, you have five or six, we will have that.

And they feel that that is saleable. People will agree with that. Because it's just... Germany says, I don't want to have any... You can bring all the Dodge Ram trucks you want. Nobody wants them in Germany, but we won't have any tariff. And then we'll say, okay, we won't have no tariff at all on Audis or something. So that's... But he thinks he's going to get money from tariffs.

I don't know how much he will be. I will say that as we get to the income tax, the income tax is connected to tariffs because the only source really of revenue were fines and tariffs. And the income tax was introduced... to eliminate or reduce tariffs, which were about 40% to give a break on pricing for the lower middle classes. But nevertheless, he thinks he's going to get money on tariffs.
