e wants the option of gaming the system. What else could it be? What else could it be? If either side wanted the elections to be transparent and done on the first day, we have models to follow that are simple. They're simple. Just what does Israel do and what does some other countries do and just do that. It works.

So you can eliminate the possibility that either side wants to fix this. Does anybody disagree with that? I'm not saying Republicans do anything except dick around the edges with voter ID and stuff, which is important. But that's just sticking around the edges.

All right, let me make a case that everything's getting better even though we're low on diesel fuel. Let me make a diesel fuel prediction. Are you ready? So apparently if diesel fuel is limited, trucking will fall off and the supply chain will die. And we don't have an obvious way to make enough to fix that. I think we know about this problem far enough in advance that we'll get through it like our other problems. So if we know far enough in advance, trains and everything else, we're going to need to, we'll probably make the adjustments.

Now imagine if you will that the country just couldn't get products where it wanted because there's not enough diesel. What would be the fallback? Somebody builds an app where you can all be Uber for packages, right? All it would take is an app that says, well, just take your van down to this dock. We'll load you up with stuff and you deliver to here. And you'll be covered with some temporary insurance or something like that. You know, if it were a national emergency where people were starving and stuff, we would just use regular cars and regular trucks. Just people would put their pickup truck and say, well, I could deliver some of this. So it's one of those emergencies where if you had to, like you're actually starving and we have other vehicles, right? We're not, we don't have a shortage of vehicles that can transport stuff. It would be an organizational Dunkirk sized thing. But we could do it. We'll get through it.

All right. Is there anything that's going wrong? I'm not even entirely sure that Ukraine is going wrong. Yeah, are you? And I don't even know what wrong looks like because we don't know how it ends. But one potential ending is that Putin is weakened and Russia is no longer a thorn in our side. And Ukraine is creating energy and food for everybody. It's possible. We're gonna have a huge bill to pay in terms of our borrowing to fund that war. But yeah, if you're gonna guess, it does look like things are pretty bad over there
