This is doable, but it does require a leader at the top who's willing to act with a spine decisively.

And that's why I'm in this.

I mean, you think about why sometimes the question of why am I doing this?

Which, you know, politics can be frustrating at times.

I have to admit, sometimes I have to remind myself why I'm doing this.

And the reality is, I mean, it's not for fame or fortune.

There's better ways of acquiring those things.

And I've been blessed in my life.

I'm doing this because I know we can get this done.

This is not complex stuff, you know, fixing the waste fraud and abuse, particularly in the Medicaid system.

And you think about the analogy to that, to every other system that's over bureaucratized, which, you know, we're not talking about today, but the public education system, how broken that is with the bureaucracy that suppresses the students and their achievement and their ability to report that to the public, to in a different sense, keep legally bilking the public without standing for results.

You look at the overgrowth of government in every sector, from Medicaid to the welfare state to even public education, K through 12, higher education.

It's a mess.

And I think what we need now more than ever in Ohio and frankly, in states like Ohio across the country are real entrepreneurs who aren't willing to tolerate nonsense, who are willing to cut through the nonsense when needed.

And that's why I'm doing this job, because I know I can get it done.

Yeah.

So a couple of things there, Ben, and it's worth I mean, I'm not going to just give you the standard talking points you can read about anywhere.

OK, I want to give you some specifics from where I sit.

I think there's an incentive failure in the way that states deal with the federal government as it relates to Medicaid.

And this is important to understand.
