WEBVTT 1 00:00:15.039 --> 00:00:17.839 Seven oh six here at fifty five KRSD talk station. 2 00:00:18.440 --> 00:00:20.440 Right time was here withstening everybody a very happy Friday 3 00:00:20.440 --> 00:00:23.239 and welcoming into the fifty five carssee morning show for 4 00:00:23.280 --> 00:00:25.039 the full hour discussion. We have a whole bunch of 5 00:00:25.079 --> 00:00:27.160 stuff to talk about that we can never stuff into 6 00:00:27.199 --> 00:00:29.519 an hour of discussion. Bring him a gulland from the 7 00:00:29.559 --> 00:00:32.280 Hudson Institute online a Hudson dot org. Also a professor 8 00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:36.679 at Ohio or at Miami University Oxford and host of 9 00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:41.479 the Charged Conversations podcast. Just Derekker produces that one. Doesn't 10 00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:42.840 he welcome back? Bring him? 11 00:00:42.960 --> 00:00:43.560 Yeah? Thanks. 12 00:00:43.960 --> 00:00:47.399 I was in DC until yesterday, so it's I'm glad 13 00:00:47.439 --> 00:00:49.280 to be back in the real world. And yes, Joe 14 00:00:49.280 --> 00:00:51.359 does produce, and he does an excellent job, and I'd 15 00:00:51.359 --> 00:00:52.880 be I wouldn't be able to do it without him. 16 00:00:52.960 --> 00:00:54.759 I say that about the fifty five KRSITE Morning Show, 17 00:00:54.759 --> 00:00:56.280 and I use that as a springboard to give him 18 00:00:56.320 --> 00:00:58.640 free publicity. If you want to do a podcast, just 19 00:00:58.679 --> 00:01:00.719 get in touch with Joe Strecker. He'll be happy to 20 00:01:00.759 --> 00:01:04.120 produce it for you for a reasonable fee. There you go, Joe, 21 00:01:04.239 --> 00:01:07.319 free promo. Love you brother, anyway, I'll bring them. You 22 00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:10.719 add a list, I mean a huge list of topics 23 00:01:10.719 --> 00:01:12.480 to talk about, and I want to try to get 24 00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:15.319 them all in. But I wanted to gravitate toward one 25 00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:17.519 that was later in your list, and that is the 26 00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:22.079 EPA's endangerment findings. This is all about CO two, and 27 00:01:22.120 --> 00:01:24.840 we've been busting our humps left and right green energy 28 00:01:24.840 --> 00:01:28.719 policies inflacer reduction, acting carbon capture. We need to spend 29 00:01:28.799 --> 00:01:32.000 trillions and trillions of dollars to prevent carbon dioxide also 30 00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:36.680 known as plant food plant food from getting out into 31 00:01:36.680 --> 00:01:39.680 the environment. We need to stop exhaling Brigham because we're 32 00:01:39.719 --> 00:01:42.959 putting a pollutant in. But no, it's not a pollutant, 33 00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:45.239 is it. So say it the Department of Energy. 34 00:01:45.319 --> 00:01:47.480 Now, yeah, that's exactly right. 35 00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:50.040 I mean, oh my gosh, don't let the facts get 36 00:01:50.079 --> 00:01:53.239 in the way of a good argument. Because the climate 37 00:01:53.319 --> 00:02:01.319 change movement is possessed, by captivated, by beholden by CO two. 38 00:02:01.519 --> 00:02:03.959 There are many different types of greenhouse gases, right, some 39 00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:06.959 of ms are actually quite dangerous indeed lead to asthma, 40 00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:12.960 health problems, et cetera. But CO two is what the 41 00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:16.599 world of climate change is solely focused on, and it 42 00:02:16.639 --> 00:02:17.759 has been for a number of year. 43 00:02:17.800 --> 00:02:22.520 It's all about CO two, okay, And I guess I 44 00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:25.919 really have to really demands asking the question, well, why 45 00:02:26.599 --> 00:02:30.680 why CO two? It is the lynchpin for so many 46 00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:34.199 of these global warming projects. I mean again, getting let's 47 00:02:34.199 --> 00:02:37.520 just say, mercury out of the air or something that's 48 00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:39.680 a worthy goal. We're not supposed to be breathing in 49 00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:43.159 or consuming mercury. It's carcinogenetic, it's dangerous, it has all 50 00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:46.680 kinds of felt effects. But carbon dioxide does not do 51 00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:49.360 that to you. So what's the story on behind the story? 52 00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:54.719 Well, it doesn't doesn't and you know, we did remove mercury. 53 00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:59.719 We changed some refrigerants around, and it got worse after that, 54 00:02:59.800 --> 00:03:01.680 but the initial change of refrigerations is good. 55 00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:02.039 You know. 56 00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:05.319 CO two is a percentage of the air, makes up 57 00:03:06.240 --> 00:03:11.280 less than one half of one percent. It's point zero 58 00:03:11.520 --> 00:03:16.719 zero four to two percent in our atmosphere. So relatively speaking, 59 00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:23.120 that is four hundred and twenty parts per million, a fraction, 60 00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:29.599 a very small fraction, and in fintesimal fraction, and almost 61 00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:32.199 all of that is naturally occurring. 62 00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:35.479 Well, this is the Clean Air Act apparently authorizes the 63 00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:38.560 EVA to regularly pollutants like let's say, real pollutants ozone, 64 00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:42.439 particulate matter, sulfur dioxide in others that, in the words 65 00:03:42.439 --> 00:03:45.960 of the Clean Air Act, may reasonably be anticipated to 66 00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:50.919 endanger public health or welfare. And the point of them 67 00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:53.199 removing carbon dioxide from this list, and I don't know 68 00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:54.599 how kind of a list in the first place, Maybe 69 00:03:54.639 --> 00:03:57.439 you can explain that to my listeners, is because carbon 70 00:03:57.479 --> 00:04:01.800 dioxide does not endanger public health or welfare, it shouldn't 71 00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:03.560 have been included in the list of greenhouse gasses from 72 00:04:03.560 --> 00:04:03.960 the get go. 73 00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:05.439 No, it shouldn't have been. 74 00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:09.879 And you know the EPA, which, by the way, like 75 00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:12.000 all agencies created by Congress, but. 76 00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:15.439 At the idea of a guy. 77 00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:19.800 Named Richard Nixon, a Republican, to clean up the air. 78 00:04:20.600 --> 00:04:24.920 And thanks to certain aspects of our climate laws, we 79 00:04:25.879 --> 00:04:29.600 the rivers are clean, the air is clean, we're enjoying life. 80 00:04:29.639 --> 00:04:33.399 But the problem is people want to take this too far. 81 00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:38.879 And you know, others came up with the idea that, hey, 82 00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:41.519 let's add CO two to the list, and so it's 83 00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:45.600 called the endangerment finding, right, and because it endangers public health, 84 00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:49.079 But it doesn't, and it never has. 85 00:04:49.360 --> 00:04:52.720 Right, So why put her on the list was to 86 00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:55.360 gain more control over our lives. I mean that seems 87 00:04:55.360 --> 00:04:56.959 to be the only direction we can go. But you know, 88 00:04:56.959 --> 00:04:59.079 I always to step back from that question and say, Okay, 89 00:04:59.240 --> 00:05:01.000 if it's a gain control our lives, why in the 90 00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:03.720 hell do they care what kind of you know, fill 91 00:05:03.720 --> 00:05:06.879 in the blank appliance I am using, or anything else 92 00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:09.680 by way of activity? If the if the result is 93 00:05:09.720 --> 00:05:12.519 just producing a little bit more CO two, which has 94 00:05:12.519 --> 00:05:13.720 no impact on humanity. 95 00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:17.759 Yeah, and you know, while there are people we can 96 00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:20.720 bring people into the show that would be adamant that. 97 00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:24.439 You know, it's what's behind temperature rises in climate change. 98 00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:26.000 It's behind this, It's behind that. 99 00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:27.199 You know. 100 00:05:27.279 --> 00:05:30.399 The answer is it's an anti industrial policy. Think of 101 00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:36.000 think of the far radical left, the people that want 102 00:05:36.079 --> 00:05:38.560 to move us back to the pre industrial age. Think 103 00:05:38.639 --> 00:05:43.079 of the anti capitalists, i e. Occupy Wall Street people. 104 00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:44.680 It's all the same group. 105 00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:52.000 It's the anti consumption crowd. Let's to me bringing I'm 106 00:05:52.040 --> 00:05:53.560 just gonna stay out loud. I've said it before. This 107 00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:55.639 comes to no surprise that people know that I've articulated 108 00:05:55.680 --> 00:05:59.279 my feelings on this matter. They are this collective group 109 00:05:59.279 --> 00:06:02.800 who claim to be in with great concern over the 110 00:06:02.920 --> 00:06:05.079 change in temperature around the globe. We're all going to 111 00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:07.600 die because the temperature is going to get warm. And 112 00:06:07.639 --> 00:06:09.600 they want to go after business and industry, and they 113 00:06:09.600 --> 00:06:12.439 want to make a connection between carbon dioxide and which 114 00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:16.079 is literally involved in every activity we do to shut 115 00:06:16.399 --> 00:06:20.040 down consumption. They view us all as you know, like 116 00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:23.439 cockroaches consuming all the world's resources, and we need to 117 00:06:23.439 --> 00:06:27.240 put a stop to that. Capitalism feeds that. Capitalism is 118 00:06:27.240 --> 00:06:30.399 based on the building and an expansion of capital, which 119 00:06:30.439 --> 00:06:34.079 necessarily includes the building and expansion and use of natural 120 00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:38.839 resources in order to acquire capital. Capitalism bad. How do 121 00:06:38.879 --> 00:06:41.879 we go after capitalism and create this Marxist utopia they're 122 00:06:41.920 --> 00:06:44.720 all looking for. Well, let's just kick the legs out 123 00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:48.839 of business and industry generally speaking, period. And the only 124 00:06:48.879 --> 00:06:52.319 way we can get there because we have been successful 125 00:06:52.680 --> 00:06:57.680 at getting rid of components in particulate that may endanger 126 00:06:57.759 --> 00:07:00.720 public health or welfare. Some of the plutants mentioned before, 127 00:07:00.759 --> 00:07:03.279 we've taken care of the vast majority of those. We 128 00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:07.000 need something that's impossible to take care of carbon dioxide. 129 00:07:07.319 --> 00:07:09.920 Right. Well, that's the entire point behind it is that 130 00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:11.199 you can't really. 131 00:07:11.199 --> 00:07:11.839 Get rid of it. 132 00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:12.879 You can't really get rid of it. 133 00:07:12.920 --> 00:07:15.199 So if we go back to the pre industrial age, 134 00:07:15.240 --> 00:07:19.480 and I'm talking, you know, early eighteen hundreds, CO two 135 00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:22.160 in the atmosphere was about two hundred and eighty to 136 00:07:22.160 --> 00:07:25.000 three hundred parts per million. We're now at four to twenty. 137 00:07:25.240 --> 00:07:28.079 After all this stuff that we've done all over the world. 138 00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:32.199 You know, we've saved a lot of people through advances 139 00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:35.680 in technology, through industrialization, through medicine. 140 00:07:35.560 --> 00:07:36.680 And on and on and on. 141 00:07:36.879 --> 00:07:41.360 So okay, all of that has increased CO two by 142 00:07:41.560 --> 00:07:44.959 about what I don't do higher math three hundred parts 143 00:07:44.959 --> 00:07:47.199 per million to four hundred and twenty parts per million, 144 00:07:47.879 --> 00:07:51.000 which is still less than one half a one percent 145 00:07:51.040 --> 00:07:54.720 of the Earth's atmosphere. And plants love it. Well, that's 146 00:07:54.720 --> 00:07:57.319 the other thing. The more CO two is in the atmosphere, 147 00:07:57.360 --> 00:08:01.560 the more plant life emerges. It's off balancing. 148 00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:07.279 Exactly because plants do what they produce oxygen AH, which 149 00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:08.079 we need. 150 00:08:08.120 --> 00:08:12.120 And they store CO two they take it out. They're scrubbers. 151 00:08:12.360 --> 00:08:15.399 We don't need direct air capture where we're man made 152 00:08:15.399 --> 00:08:18.240 trying to rip CO two out of the atmosphere. Planet 153 00:08:18.240 --> 00:08:20.839 a tree, planet a tree, right, don't they want to 154 00:08:20.839 --> 00:08:22.839 do that anyway, don't see That's. 155 00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:25.839 What I'm saying. You know, more CO two is good 156 00:08:25.920 --> 00:08:29.079 for the environment in the sense that it is conducive 157 00:08:29.160 --> 00:08:32.320 to plant growth. And they're all worried about us running 158 00:08:32.360 --> 00:08:34.200 out of food. They're all worried about us knocking down 159 00:08:34.200 --> 00:08:36.559 the rainforest, even though they'll knock down the rainforest to 160 00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:38.919 build a highway so they can get to the environmental meeting. 161 00:08:38.919 --> 00:08:40.720 They're all going to have the global meeting down and 162 00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:45.320 I mean it's just the hypocrisy is insane. Yeah, Brigand 163 00:08:45.320 --> 00:08:48.440 but ultimately, if we have more CO two, we get 164 00:08:48.519 --> 00:08:50.879 encourage plant growth, which is again good for the rest 165 00:08:50.919 --> 00:08:53.000 of the world. And there go again more oxygen. 166 00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:55.879 Well, we'll have to see what happens, because you know 167 00:08:55.879 --> 00:08:57.519 what the EPA is proposed to do. They have to 168 00:08:57.600 --> 00:08:59.919 change the regulation because the Obama people put it into 169 00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:02.960 and there is a process that you have to go through, 170 00:09:02.960 --> 00:09:05.320 and I'm sure this will end up in litigation as well, 171 00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:10.080 but they're proposing reversing the Obama era endangerment finding that 172 00:09:10.159 --> 00:09:13.440 classify CO two as a pollutant. And that's really what 173 00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:17.879 we're talking about. It's not a pollutant under the Clean 174 00:09:17.879 --> 00:09:18.559 Air Act. 175 00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:20.240 Right, it's not. 176 00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:22.799 There's no authority within the Clean Air Act to regulate 177 00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:25.120 something that isn't defined as a pollutant.

He's been very successful in 234 00:12:04.120 --> 00:12:07.519 negotiating tariff and trade arrangements with various countries around the world. 235 00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:09.720 Had recent announcements he heard the top of the UR 236 00:12:09.840 --> 00:12:13.799 news and knocking him down one by one question is 237 00:12:13.840 --> 00:12:16.480 whether they'll stay in place, because there were oral arguments 238 00:12:16.879 --> 00:12:21.480 in a federal Pellic court yesterday, the going in connection 239 00:12:21.559 --> 00:12:23.600 with the lower courts ruling that No, Trump does not 240 00:12:23.799 --> 00:12:28.039 have the legal authority to impose these tariffs. It's exclusively 241 00:12:28.159 --> 00:12:31.080 within the purview of the legislative branch power of the 242 00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:34.200 purse kind of stuff, and that his declaration of an 243 00:12:34.200 --> 00:12:38.600 emergency is insufficient under the circumstances. No, a trade imbalance 244 00:12:38.679 --> 00:12:41.120 is not worthy of allowing him to have all this leeway. 245 00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:44.600 So maybe all of this will be eradicated. We're gonna 246 00:12:44.600 --> 00:12:45.919 have to wait and see on that. You know, how 247 00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:48.039 the wheels of justice are, they spend slowly. But in 248 00:12:48.039 --> 00:12:52.879 the meantime, the negotiated agreements do include things related to 249 00:12:53.120 --> 00:12:57.519 well large scale US energy exports like liquid natural gas. 250 00:12:57.879 --> 00:12:59.759 I mean, what, there's a seven hundred and fifty billion 251 00:12:59.840 --> 00:13:03.240 dollar trade pledge in the US EU trade deal, Brigham. 252 00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:05.799 That's significant, there is. That's a lot of money. 253 00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:07.639 And I think what we tend to forget and I 254 00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:10.399 do too, frankly, is you know, we talk about a 255 00:13:10.440 --> 00:13:14.840 trade imbalance that means that we give other countries more 256 00:13:14.879 --> 00:13:18.759 money than other countries give us. For purchasing our goods. 257 00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:22.120 But you know, whether it's a car, a John Deere tractor, 258 00:13:22.519 --> 00:13:28.200 or a raw product like oil or natural gas, that counts. 259 00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:28.639 Right. 260 00:13:29.600 --> 00:13:32.759 Somebody else from outside the country's paying an American company 261 00:13:32.759 --> 00:13:34.799 that brings revenue into the country, that's a good thing. 262 00:13:34.840 --> 00:13:38.159 That's a whole trade imbounce, right indeed. And so yeah, 263 00:13:38.240 --> 00:13:41.039 you know what I will what I will give Trump 264 00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:45.200 is he is a master salesman. He considers himself America's 265 00:13:45.320 --> 00:13:49.279 number one promotional salesperson of American companies. 266 00:13:49.360 --> 00:13:51.519 Yes, he would probably self apply that much. 267 00:13:52.159 --> 00:13:55.679 We probably would pad himself right on the back for that. 268 00:13:55.799 --> 00:13:58.480 And so whenever he goes around what his view is 269 00:13:58.519 --> 00:14:00.000 and right or wrong, here's his view. 270 00:14:00.080 --> 00:14:02.399 His view is, well, you know, after. 271 00:14:02.240 --> 00:14:04.519 World War two and all, we helped out Europe get 272 00:14:04.559 --> 00:14:06.159 back on their feed and we kind of gave them 273 00:14:06.200 --> 00:14:09.200 good deals, right, We kind of gave them the family discount. 274 00:14:09.279 --> 00:14:13.879 But now that was almost one hundred years ago, and 275 00:14:13.960 --> 00:14:17.200 we continue to give people the family discount, and they 276 00:14:17.240 --> 00:14:19.320 don't spend money where they should spend money, and they 277 00:14:19.360 --> 00:14:21.279 spend money on their social programs. 278 00:14:21.360 --> 00:14:24.279 We also happened to act as their police force of 279 00:14:24.440 --> 00:14:27.320 defending them with our American military so they don't have 280 00:14:27.399 --> 00:14:31.440 to spend money for their own security and safety. Yes, 281 00:14:31.559 --> 00:14:34.200 I've been stationed in Europe myself. I'm sure we have 282 00:14:34.240 --> 00:14:35.759 military bases all over the globe. 283 00:14:35.799 --> 00:14:36.360 We do so. 284 00:14:36.840 --> 00:14:41.600 Yeah, it's akin to telling your loving adult child who's 285 00:14:41.679 --> 00:14:44.600 thirty eight or forty time to move out of the basement. 286 00:14:46.399 --> 00:14:50.440 Pay for your own stuff, and that involves trade. Hey 287 00:14:50.519 --> 00:14:54.480 we've been giving you guys such big discounts. We're kicking 288 00:14:54.519 --> 00:14:59.000 you off the family cell phone bill. Get your own, 289 00:14:59.399 --> 00:15:02.200 your own accoun out. Yeah, that's what this is. Well, 290 00:15:02.200 --> 00:15:04.440 and conceptually there's nothing wrong with that. It does make 291 00:15:04.720 --> 00:15:09.600 sense logically. Why would we be giving them the discount Yeah, 292 00:15:09.639 --> 00:15:12.320 well no, because they have surpluses. They have money to 293 00:15:12.399 --> 00:15:17.879 invest in all their pet projects, including the exostential crisis 294 00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:19.159 of climate change. 295 00:15:19.799 --> 00:15:24.200 Yeah, European Union is a is the business model for 296 00:15:24.240 --> 00:15:25.840 the climate change alarmist it. 297 00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:29.240 You know, I just got back from France last month 298 00:15:29.279 --> 00:15:32.360 where I speaking at an economic conference, and you know, 299 00:15:32.399 --> 00:15:36.159 the idea of a European free trade block was a 300 00:15:36.200 --> 00:15:40.279 wonderful idea back when it was the Common market, but 301 00:15:40.360 --> 00:15:43.639 it is so far astrayed from its origins into this 302 00:15:44.200 --> 00:15:49.200 centralized political function in Brussels run by technicocrats and bureaucrats, 303 00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:53.879 and that should be a harbinger, a warning for America 304 00:15:53.919 --> 00:15:58.200 of what happens when a federal a centralized bureaucracy of 305 00:15:58.360 --> 00:15:59.960 unelected people take over. 306 00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:03.240 Yeah, they were independent countries with their own independent currencies, 307 00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:06.519 with their own independent directions thoughts. But they played nicely together, 308 00:16:06.879 --> 00:16:09.480 and in playing nicely together, because they were closely tight neighbors, 309 00:16:09.480 --> 00:16:12.200 they decided to get involved in this European Union concept. 310 00:16:12.519 --> 00:16:15.600 It's like creating a federal government out of whole cloth 311 00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:21.039 when you had a republic of working together states like 312 00:16:21.080 --> 00:16:23.759 we have here. You know, we got that whole tenth Amendment, 313 00:16:23.799 --> 00:16:25.639 you know, with the powers not specifically reserve in the 314 00:16:25.679 --> 00:16:27.720 federal gun belonged to the states, which allows us more 315 00:16:27.759 --> 00:16:29.679 flexibility and freedom. We can do what we want in 316 00:16:29.720 --> 00:16:31.600 our individual states if it's not a power reserve by 317 00:16:31.639 --> 00:16:34.399 the federal government over there. Brussels has basically taken over. 318 00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:38.200 They're basically taking over. And what's interesting with this US 319 00:16:38.320 --> 00:16:41.000 EU trade deal, which was made with Brussels, by the way, 320 00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:44.360 is that a lot of it will stick because Brussels 321 00:16:44.480 --> 00:16:49.440 controls a lot of you know, controls the tariffs controls 322 00:16:49.840 --> 00:16:52.639 what can be sold. And you know, to be fair, 323 00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:57.000 the Europeans to jump up down and scream about America. Yeah, 324 00:16:57.080 --> 00:17:01.840 try selling agriculture or wine in France. Try sell America 325 00:17:01.919 --> 00:17:05.400 of American organ You can't do it right. The German 326 00:17:05.440 --> 00:17:09.640 automobile industry hugely protected because it's important to them. 327 00:17:09.720 --> 00:17:14.119 Okay, got it. But what this does is it resets 328 00:17:14.160 --> 00:17:19.960 the playing field. It rebalances trade, gets American companies more 329 00:17:20.039 --> 00:17:24.079 access to European markets. Now here's where we're going to 330 00:17:24.119 --> 00:17:28.160 have to take away and see approaches. It requires Europe 331 00:17:28.200 --> 00:17:30.039 to buy more American stuff. 332 00:17:30.759 --> 00:17:31.559 But will they. 333 00:17:31.839 --> 00:17:34.400 Yeah, good question. Now the devil's in the details, and 334 00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:37.279 keep your popcorn out and see what events unfold as 335 00:17:37.279 --> 00:17:40.480 we move forward. But if we have something that they 336 00:17:40.519 --> 00:17:44.920 don't have, affordable liquid natural gas, then they'll buy it 337 00:17:44.920 --> 00:17:47.680 from us. In a capitalist market where you know, laws 338 00:17:47.680 --> 00:17:50.680 of supplying the man just actually dominate rather than trade rules, 339 00:17:50.720 --> 00:17:53.400 regulations and tariffs. If we've got something they want, they 340 00:17:53.400 --> 00:17:54.920 will naturally come and buy it from us. 341 00:17:55.160 --> 00:17:57.559 Well, and Brian, you know what happened in Europe is 342 00:17:57.920 --> 00:18:01.960 you could frack in Europe. Netherlands, the Groniken fields were 343 00:18:01.960 --> 00:18:05.680 shut down, the North seafields for oil and gas shut down. 344 00:18:07.319 --> 00:18:10.000 This was their way of burning. This is akin to 345 00:18:10.039 --> 00:18:13.279 burning the Viking boats on as right, And if we 346 00:18:13.400 --> 00:18:16.200 just don't use this stuff, something else will pop up. Well, 347 00:18:16.200 --> 00:18:19.880 now they're realizing that something else was actually Russian oil 348 00:18:19.880 --> 00:18:24.200 and gas. That's not vogue these days. So now their 349 00:18:24.359 --> 00:18:30.920 economies contracted significantly. The industrialization of Europe occurred after twenty 350 00:18:31.039 --> 00:18:33.519 twenty two, and the price of energy went through the roof, 351 00:18:33.599 --> 00:18:35.960 and it went through the roof, and it stayed through 352 00:18:35.960 --> 00:18:37.720 the roof because they said, no, we're not gonna buy 353 00:18:37.720 --> 00:18:40.000 long term contracts, We're gonna buy stuff on the spot 354 00:18:40.079 --> 00:18:41.960 market because we're not gonna need it very long. Well, 355 00:18:41.960 --> 00:18:45.599 that's the highest price that you can pay for energy exactly. 356 00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:47.759 And now they're like, well, you know, maybe we ought 357 00:18:47.759 --> 00:18:51.039 to get I don't know, I'm ten twenty thirty year 358 00:18:51.599 --> 00:18:55.319 locked in price with America for LNG to buy something 359 00:18:55.359 --> 00:18:58.559 from US that they used to produce themselves. 360 00:18:58.559 --> 00:19:00.759 That they personally decide they were going to cut their 361 00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:03.240 own throats and shut off, forcing themselves into the position 362 00:19:03.279 --> 00:19:06.279 where they now have to buy from US.
