- 1:33Speaker 1: grab your popcorn because there is more.
- 1:37Speaker 2: I'm gonna get to some audio in.
- 1:39Speaker 1: A second, but a great, great piece of data where
- 1:46Speaker 1: someone took a look at the GDP, the gross domestic
- 1:51Speaker 1: product per capita between North Korea and South Korea.
- 1:58Speaker 2: It's so good.
- 2:00Speaker 1: Because when you take a look at things, you know,
- 2:06Speaker 1: before the Korean War, it wasn't great, it wasn't great,
- 2:11Speaker 1: it wasn't wonderful, it wasn't terrific.
- 2:13Speaker 2: It was a poor country.
- 2:16Speaker 1: Then you have the Korean War, and you've got the
- 2:19Speaker 1: split between the North and the South, and you have
- 2:23Speaker 1: the war over and they decide that they're going to
- 2:26Speaker 1: embrace we'll call it some level of.
- 2:31Speaker 2: Communism, right.
- 2:32Speaker 1: North Korea does that, and South Korea is much, say
- 2:36Speaker 1: some level total levels, and South Korea is.
- 2:38Speaker 2: Like, we're going to try these markets.
- 2:41Speaker 1: And right now the GDP the per capita as of
- 2:46Speaker 1: twenty twenty two in South korea's forty two thousand dollars
- 2:49Speaker 1: and in North Korea it's two thousand dollars.
- 2:56Speaker 2: But Communism's great or some other kind of.
- 3:00Speaker 1: Nonsense like that, Well, China has a bigger GDP than
- 3:05Speaker 1: both China steals.
- 3:09Speaker 2: China is a fraud.
- 3:11Speaker 1: You want a story about China, allow me to bring
- 3:14Speaker 1: a story about China. The story is is that the
- 3:20Speaker 1: real estate market in China has erased all gains from
- 3:24Speaker 1: the last twenty years. This is for the Bank of
- 3:28Speaker 1: International Sentiments Settlements via Fred Fried.
- 3:35Speaker 2: All of the gains from two thousand and six.
- 3:38Speaker 1: And how it's gone up, up, up, and certainly they've
- 3:40Speaker 1: had dippers, but always always.
- 3:41Speaker 2: Up off the cliff. Well, of course it's off the cliff.
- 3:50Speaker 1: I had somebody reach out to me and say, is
- 3:52Speaker 1: this a predictable because of everground, Evergrand and country garden,
- 3:56Speaker 1: two things that we discussed here. These massive real estate firms,
- 4:00Speaker 1: insanely even pension funds in the United States were investing
- 4:03Speaker 1: in No pension fund should be allowed to invest in
- 4:06Speaker 1: any Chinese company at all.
- 4:07Speaker 2: We're insane if we allow it.
- 4:10Speaker 1: If you're in a pension and they're investing in China,
- 4:14Speaker 1: if the laws don't already exist, they must exist.
- 4:17Speaker 2: Insane.
- 4:19Speaker 1: But these companies, they were already failing two years ago.
- 4:23Speaker 1: We were discussing it in depth, we were engaging the
- 4:25Speaker 1: Wall Street Journal reporting about this.
- 4:27Speaker 2: Absolutely the case ten thousand percent.
- 4:32Speaker 1: Also, China made a series of missteps because as they
- 4:37Speaker 1: were stealing and growing, they were investing in infrastructure. Everything
- 4:42Speaker 1: was about infrastructure. The problem is they were taking cities
- 4:47Speaker 1: that have a GDP, like North Korea, and they were
- 4:51Speaker 1: building five airports.
- 4:54Speaker 2: We're Indianapolis.
- 4:55Speaker 1: We've got one airport, two regionals, one international.
- 5:00Speaker 2: You can handle five airports. We have no need for it,
- 5:04Speaker 2: no matter how much the East siders don't want to.
- 5:06Speaker 1: Drive to the west side. We're not getting another airport.
- 5:11Speaker 1: They built so they could give people jobs. They didn't
- 5:14Speaker 1: build because they had actual growth opportunities. Japan did this
- 5:19Speaker 1: in the nineteen eighties. Hey, producer, Carl, just a quick
- 5:22Speaker 1: Japan question for you. What happened to Japan's economy in
- 5:25Speaker 1: the nineteen eighties.
- 5:27Speaker 2: It's been stagnant for like thirty years.
- 5:30Speaker 1: True stagflation for three By the way, we didn't prepare
- 5:34Speaker 1: that true stagflation for three decades because their investments were
- 5:40Speaker 1: improper and China went.
- 5:41Speaker 2: Down the same road. Add to this the population.
- 5:47Speaker 1: Bomb that's going to remove eight hundred million people from
- 5:49Speaker 1: that country because they don't have the population to replace
- 5:52Speaker 1: the one point three billion people they have. If you
- 5:54Speaker 1: even believe that number, bad things for China, really bad
- 6:02Speaker 1: things for China. But let me give you the popcorn
- 6:06Speaker 1: moment really quick. It's a story you need to hear
- 6:08Speaker 1: to believe. You play the play the play the music,
- 6:12Speaker 1: play the there is then grab your popcorn because there
- 6:17Speaker 1: is more set con fetterman and a very clean hoodie
- 6:21Speaker 1: telling Democrats, would you give up the Trump derangement syndrome
- 6:25Speaker 1: in a conversation with Greta van Susteren and just build
- 6:28Speaker 1: the dang ballroom.
- 6:29Speaker 3: Drop the tds, you know, let's just build this ballroom.
- 6:32Speaker 3: And we always, as Democrats, we want to be the
- 6:36Speaker 3: party of abundance, you know, But but you know, we
- 6:39Speaker 3: have a history shutting things down or taking years, years
- 6:43Speaker 3: and years to do the very basic kinds of a
- 6:44Speaker 3: thing of construction. And the president is not going to
- 6:48Speaker 3: be in office when that thing's even going to be finished,
- 6:51Speaker 3: you know, so this isn't really him. But so that's
- 6:54Speaker 3: that's part of it, and the concern. You could have
- 6:57Speaker 3: a lot more inclusive and frequent and secure the most important,
- 7:02Speaker 3: secure events, just in a.
- 7:03Speaker 2: Facility like that.
- 7:05Speaker 3: I never really had a problem with it to begin with.
- 7:08Speaker 3: But I've been at events where people are intense. I
- 7:11Speaker 3: mean it's just like, you know, that's not the most
- 7:14Speaker 3: powerful country in the world, where people trodging around and
- 7:18Speaker 3: saw it, you know, intense for state events. So like
- 7:23Speaker 3: that's part of it. That's really the reality here. And
- 7:29Speaker 3: after that event, we got so lucky as a nation.
- 7:32Speaker 3: So why are we arguing about is this too big?
- 7:36Speaker 3: Is it to this or to that? It's just I mean,
- 7:38Speaker 3: let's just let's do this.
- 7:42Speaker 1: The Voice of reason can't believe I actually said that,
- 7:44Speaker 1: but it is true, and you've said it to and
- 7:47Speaker 1: you said, I can't believe I just said that.
