 Michael and Troy. But Michael always comes in with a lot of good questions and some big dollars. So let's do two of Michael's $100 questions. If these idiots actually raise minimum wage to $10 an hour and keep sending out stimulus checks, will we have an economic catastrophe before Biden leaves office and hands and the hard left will take all the blame? The reaction to that being a nationalist dictator from the right. Oh, you know, Michael's just feeding into my pessimism, right? I mean, there is a chance. And I think the real danger of the $1.9 trillion, there was a Wall Street Journal article the other day that showed that the $1.9 trillion stimulus package will actually destroy. I can't remember how many millions of jobs that literally will destroy jobs. The minimum wage destroys more jobs. So I do think that the real risk that Biden is taking and other policies that his administration is getting engaged in is to bring about a real recession that will bring about a real loss, both a loss for the Democrats now. In some regards, that's a good thing. In some regards, that's a terrible thing. But and I'm not sure the hard left will take the blame. I think the middle, the centrists will take the blame. The hard left will still say you didn't follow a hard left policies, you were too centrist. That's what caused the economy to collapse. So what I think is going to happen is you'll get a spur of economic growth this year or the next year. As all this money gets absorbed in the economy, people shrug off COVID and go to work and get stuff done and suddenly production spikes and and as a consequence, you get this boost in production and that'll happen. But then all the bad economic policies will kind of hit and then and the federal have to raise interest rates because inflation will stop peaking will start rearing its ugly head. And then you get a big recession sometime in 2022, just before the elections. And maybe that's the one shot Republicans have of taking the house. Now, in spite of how bad the Republicans are, I still hope they take the house if only to be a counterbalance to Biden. So maybe that's a good thing. I don't know that the Republicans are quite ready yet for national dictatorship or that the country's quite ready yet. So but yeah, I mean, this is kind of ping-pong. This is kind of back and forth that we can expect moving into the future. I mean, as the culture deteriorates, as the culture is getting worse, as things are really, really bad, the alternatives become worse and worse, the options become worse and worse, and the outcome ultimately has to be a bad outcome. And that's the direction we're heading. It's no question. Exactly the path we take is hard to tell. But it is true, as you say, that it is going to be to some extent determined by the economic policies. And so we know Biden's economic policies are not good. There is a chance that they're going to lead to a kind of recession that will cause a political shift again in the country away from the Democrats. What we need today, what I call the new intellectual, would be any man or woman who is willing to think. Meaning, any man or woman who knows that man's life must be guided by reason, by the intellect, not by feelings, wishes, whims, or mystic revelations. Any man or woman who values his life and who does not want to give in to today's cult of despair, cynicism, and impotence, and does not intend to give up the world to the dark ages and to the role of the collectivist roads.
