ig families and the family is your support structure, you know, more so than even the government. So if you get this big extended family, one of the advantages is you're more mobile. Because for example when I moved to California I probably would not have except my brother was already here. So if you have a family member who's already in America for example, it's a lot easier to move to America, right? Just having that family structure. But because of the population bomb that's happening in China where there's just fewer and fewer babies, families are also getting smaller. Not only do you have fewer babies or no babies but your cousin didn't have a baby either. So now your family support structure is shrinking. And that would have in theory an enormous impact on China's resilience and economy, which I've never thought of that. The only reason I bring it up is that it's one of those things that could be a big thing that I've literally never thought about. But it also could get solved easily by workarounds, etc. So just keep an eye on that.

The Academy Awards has hired a crisis team to keep Chris Rock from getting slapped again. I guess no, not Chris Rock, but just to keep any trouble. Now here's where our system goes wrong every time. So Chris Rock gets slapped one time in the history of anything. There was a problem one time. But you're the Academy Awards. Can you act as if you're not going to do anything about it? Now I guess they maybe kicked Will Smith out of their academy or something or he quit. I don't know. So they could do something like little symbolic things. But it feels like if you're in charge you've got to show you're doing something like something physical or you're making a change.

So imagine some group comes in and pitches to the Academy Awards people, hey, you had a problem. This is bad PR because people think, my God, you haven't done anything about it. You could hire my company and we'll put in this crisis management team and they'll be basically guarding people from getting on stage, right? Just guarding people. So what happens is how can the Academy Awards say no to somebody offering physical guards to solve the problem that maybe people think is a real problem but really just happened once? So as soon as this stuff starts getting monetized, all right, then this company is the crisis group for just the Academy Awards. Do you think that group would say, hey, let's talk to the Golden Globes people. They have the same problem. Of course they would, right? Then pretty soon every event would have to hire a crisis management group.

The way our free market works is amazing and stupid at the same time because people will sell whatever anybody can buy. And sometimes what people want to buy is completely irrational. So keep in mind when you're seeing things like ESG and CRT and DEI, there's somebody like this hypothetical crisis management group who's selling a package of services. And that's why it's a thing. It's not a thing because a whole bunch of people thought it was a good idea. Even though they did, it's a thing because somebody's selling it. And as soon as somebody's selling it and then it becomes a fixture of our reality, then everything's distorted and terrible. So it's just an example of how once we monetize hate you get more hate. There's no way around it. So with social media monetizes hate because you get more clicks for hate. Now yeah, so you're going to get what you monetize.

I'm having a feeling that all of human society needs to be re-engineered like almost start from scratch. Now I would agree with you that the classic family structure would be the best, but I don't see any way to force people into it or even incentivize them. You know, you could change the financial incentives, but I feel like
