 Thomas asks, how do you see the future of Brazil if Luley is elected and how do you see the future of the country if Bolsonaro is elected? I mean, look, Luley is a socialist and so I think that his election would be unbelievably destructive to Brazil. I think it undermined prosperity in Brazil. It will reverse whatever positive economic positives legislation and positive things were done during the first Bolsonaro administration. Not much was done, but what was the little bit that was good will be reversed. But Luley is also a populist. He's not going to be, I don't think he's going to be completely destructive to the Brazilian economy. He wasn't the first term because, I mean, he knows that in order to maintain his support, he's going to have to allow business enough freedom to be able to milk them for the benefits that he gains from them so he can redistribute their wealth. So I think he's enough of a realist to do that. I don't think he puts Brazil on the path of Venezuela, but he very well makes. I mean, you're playing with fire. You really are. Now, I think there's a real difference between Latin America broadly, including Brazil and the United States. You know, the Brazil, the likelihood, the likelihood is that there's a much higher likelihood that Brazil gets taken over by rabbit socialists just like Venezuela and the rest of Latin America gets taken over by rabbit socialists. Then then there is that they get taken over by, you know, a right wing authoritarianism. I think the dynamics. Latin America is primed for socialism has been primed for socialism forever, primarily because of its, you know, its continental philosophy, its Kantian, Kantian leftist German philosophy. They never had, you know, Latin American never had the benefit of, if you will, Anglo-Saxon philosophy, liberal philosophy. There was more free markets. They never got the enlightenment from England and from Scotland. They went straight to the French and the Germans. And as a consequence, they're primed, much more primed towards socialism in the left. So I think Lula would be a disaster. And I think Bolsonaro will not be good, right? So the sad thing is that it's a terrible choice that Brazil is facing. Bolsonaro strikes me as pretty much of a kind of a bubbling idiot, you know, with all the wrong instincts. He's a statist. Again, he's a populist. He's a religionist. But he has put, if you will, the right place, the right people in economic positions in the government. The other thing about Bolsonaro is he's super corrupt. So is Lula, right? Lula went to jail for corruption and it still might win the election. So they're both super corrupt. But Bolsonaro has some good people kind of running the economy. And so Brazil will probably do much better economically under Lula. Sorry, under Bolsonaro. But I don't see the prospects of the country very positive either way, because neither Lula nor Bolsonaro are good in a significant way. And neither of them in Bolsonaro will not let the better elements in this government actually do the things that Brazil needs to get done in order for Brazil to become wealthy and successful and prosperous. It has all the potential for that, but it cannot do it because it's got a corrupt status political system and economy. All right, we'll get to the other $20 questions, which are not on topic. We'll get to them. We'll get to them later. OK, let me just do one other one, James Chi, because it's on Brazil. And this will be the last one before we get to talk about Putin and then Iran. How do you view Brazil in terms of its future? Do you like Sao Paulo? Do you feel it has potential to keep evolving to a better city? So again, you know, Brazil's future is, I think, unfortunately bleak right now because both Bolsonaro and Lula are corrupt. Both of them are statist. Both of them are going to be bad for Brazil. I think Brazil has immense potential, always has had the people are amazing. It has incredible natural resources. It has some very successful businessmen. It has a very entrepreneurial young people like every country. Really, if you liberated economically, it would be it would do amazing. It has a large population, has a relatively young population. So it doesn't suffer from the demographic problems that much of the world suffers from. It's still relatively young. And it could do amazing things if the status got out of the way. And again, Paulo Guetz, who is the economy minister in Brazil, is a good guy. He has the right ideas. He's influenced by Iran. He's influenced by the Austrian economists, by Milton Friedman. If he was given a free hand, he could do amazing things, but hasn't so far. So I'm skeptical about Brazil's prospects. It doesn't, São Paulo is not my favorite city. It's a big city. It's not a particularly pretty city. You know, where my hotel is right now, a lot of tall buildings, a lot of very modern buildings, which are pretty cool. And it's a very nice part of town. We were at a restaurant earlier today also to kind of a more expensive, nice part of town. But São Paulo is a full of favela, favela to the slums, full of slums, full of poverty. Again, crime is relatively high. And, you know, São Paulo is just massive. It's just massive in the traffic. Oh my God. It took an hour and 40 minutes to get from the hotel to my hotel. That shouldn't be more than 30 to 40 minutes without traffic, but traffic is horrific. They don't have the infrastructure to deal with the traffic. We don't have the highway system. There are just too many cars for the infrastructure that exists. It's just not a city. It's a city that needs a lot of infrastructure to improve. So I don't know how the city becomes better without massive investments in infrastructure. Now, looking on my window at the hotel, you can see some infrastructure going up, but is it enough? It's questionable. On the chat, it says 12 million people live in São Paulo. I thought it was more than that, but yes, 12 million. I mean, my favorite city in Brazil is by far Rio de Janeiro, which is probably the most beautiful city in the world. But it's also got problems. Crime, favelas, poverty, all of that is really difficult. But, you know, São Paulo has great restaurants. It's got a vibrant business community. There's a lot of wealth. There's a lot of wealthy people who live and work in São Paulo. So it's just a tough place to be because of the crime and because of the lack of infrastructure, so the traffic and all of that.
