But it is actually showing even more 22 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 5: heading north and then east, so it's going to be 23 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 5: heading out to sea. So hopefully all we're going to 24 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 5: be getting is a little bit of storm surge and 25 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 5: not a direct hit on America or you know, the 26 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 5: continent of America. 27 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 4: So that's good news. 28 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:41,680 Speaker 5: As if I needed another reason to eat more hamburgers. 29 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 4: This is unbelievable. 30 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 5: Fast food chain Steak and Shake has started installing large 31 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 5: American flags at its outlets across the country.

According 44 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 5: to LinkedIn, As of August, there were three hundred and 45 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 5: sixty three hundred and ninety seven Steak and Shake restaurants 46 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 5: across twenty four state territories in the United States, according 47 00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 5: to an August twentieth report by data company Scrape. Hero 48 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 5: Stake and Shake announced and came as after Donald President 49 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 5: Donald Trump signed an executive order on August the twenty 50 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 5: fifth directing Eternal Attorney General Pam Bondi to prosecute people 51 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 5: caught burning the flag or desecrating it in other ways. 52 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 5: According to his post in his order, our great American 53 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 5: Flag is the most sacred and cherished symbol of the 54 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 5: United States of America and as and of American freedom, identity, 55 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 5: and strength. Over nearly two and a half centuries, many 56 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 5: thousands of American patriots have fought, bled, and died to 57 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 5: keep the stars and strike waving proudly. 58 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 4: The order said, burning the national flag. 59 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 5: Is a statement of contempt, hostility, and violence against our nation, 60 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 5: the clearest possible expression of opposition to the political union 61 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 5: that preserves our rights, liberty, and security. Burning this representation 62 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 5: of America may incite violence and riot. Now there's been 63 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 5: a lot of pushback on this. You know, they talk 64 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 5: about this being people burning the flag is a matter 65 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 5: of First Amendment rights, free speech and so on. Now, 66 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 5: the burning the flag was a form of political protests 67 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,719 Speaker 5: that became prevalent during the Vietnam War. Subsequently, the Flag 68 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 5: Protection Act of nineteen sixty eight was passed, which banned 69 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 5: burning and defiling the flag. The Supreme Court overturned the 70 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 5: law in nineteen eighty nine, but nineteen years later No 71 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,799 Speaker 5: twenty one years later declaring the desecration of the American 72 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,280 Speaker 5: Flag is protected under the First Amendment, and in August 73 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:44,679 Speaker 5: twenty fifth statement, the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression FIRE, 74 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:50,720 Speaker 5: named the acronym FIRE, opposed the executive order. Now, the 75 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 5: purpose of this and talking about this possibly inciting riot 76 00:04:54,960 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 5: would be justification for putting this into effect. Now, again, 77 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 5: First Amendment people, you know, they expressing their you know, 78 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 5: First Amendment rights, freedom of speech, burning the American flag 79 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 5: and all that sort of stuff. But you know what 80 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 5: they'll say is that, hey, it's just a piece of cloth. 81 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:20,159 Speaker 5: You know, it's it's just a representation of America. It 82 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 5: is not America, and all this sort of stuff. And 83 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 5: my answer to that is, well, if it's so insignificant, 84 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 5: why do you burn it in the first place, Because 85 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,279 Speaker 5: you're trying to make a point, and the point is stupid, 86 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 5: and if it incites a riot, and you know, you know, 87 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 5: if you aggravate people, they're going to react. And so 88 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 5: the fact that this is being put in place, I 89 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 5: applaud this, the fact that Steak and Shake is saying, 90 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 5: you know what, we are a proud company. We are 91 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 5: a proud American company, and we're going to stand by 92 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 5: that as much as possible, and installing as large a 93 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 5: flag as will be allowed by these individual communities show 94 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 5: the positive patriotic spirit of that company towards America. And 95 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,599 Speaker 5: like I said, all I need is one more reason 96 00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 5: to go out and buy more hammers and eat more Hamburgers. 97 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 5: Next thing you know, they'll be putting up flags at 98 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 5: different pizza chains too, and so there goes my diet. 99 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 4: But you know, I don't mind. 100 00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 5: Yesterday I mentioned that Donald Trump and Mark Carey, the 101 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 5: Prime Minister of Great Britain, we're meeting and they were 102 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 5: talking about the trade negotiations and so on, and there's 103 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 5: been other stories. There have been some additional stories as 104 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 5: a result of that. I'm going to follow up on that. 105 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 5: President Donald Trump said he expects us and Canada can 106 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 5: get there on a resolution to their dispute over sectoral. 107 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 4: Tariffs on steel, aluminum, and autos. 108 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,919 Speaker 5: Trump made his remarks in an Oval Office meeting with 109 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 5: Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney on August, well actually August 110 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 5: October the seventh, two days ago, where the presidents described 111 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 5: the disagreements between the countries as natural conflicts because they're 112 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 5: competing for the same businesses. Quoted by Donald Trump, That's 113 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 5: why I keep mentioning. One of the ways to solve 114 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 5: that problem is the very easy way, Trump said, and 115 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,840 Speaker 5: an apparent reference to his suggestion that Canada should become 116 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 5: the fifty first state, an idea that was widely opposed 117 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 5: by Canadians. 118 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:22,239 Speaker 4: Well, I'm sure they would. 119 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 5: But when he made that comment, watching the press conference, 120 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 5: Carney smiled and kind of laughed a little bit, knowing 121 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 5: that this is kind of a trolling, if you will, 122 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 5: or just kind of a little bit of a nudge 123 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 5: or something like it. 124 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 4: And he gets the joke. And that's the important thing. 125 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 6: You know. 126 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 5: Initially, when he met with Trump back in what was 127 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 5: at April or May, it was confrontational and Trump was 128 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 5: kind of needling him and he said, you know, certain 129 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 5: things are not for sale, and you know as a 130 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 5: real estate developer that that's not possible and we're probably 131 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 5: not going to We're definitely not going to do that. 132 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 5: What I didn't know, and I probably should have known 133 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 5: at the time, is that with Carney just being elected 134 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 5: in April, I didn't know his background. Mark Carney's second 135 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 5: visit to the White House since becoming Prime Minister earlier 136 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 5: this year, with a trading relationship worth nine hundred billion 137 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 5: dollars on the line, the former central banker one election 138 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,960 Speaker 5: in April, so he is approaching this from a banking standpoint. 139 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 5: He understands economics, and he understands what Donald Trump is 140 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 5: trying to do. And the fact that Donald Trump needles 141 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:36,720 Speaker 5: him is he gets it. He gets the joke and 142 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,320 Speaker 5: he gets the idea and to the point where the 143 00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 5: two get along. I got to tell you, watching that 144 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 5: press conference, I was very encouraged by the talks and 145 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:51,719 Speaker 5: how these two interacted to the point where they understood 146 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,559 Speaker 5: each other. They know where each other is coming from, 147 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 5: and both want to have a deal that's good for 148 00:08:59,000 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 5: their own countries. 149 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 4: And this is the whole point. 150 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 5: When you are the representative of a particular country, if 151 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 5: you're the prime minister or if you're the president of 152 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,719 Speaker 5: a particular country, you want your country to succeed. You 153 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 5: are not the president or the prime minister of Europe, 154 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 5: You're not the Prime minister of France, You're not the 155 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 5: president of any other country. You are the president of 156 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 5: the United States. And he is the Prime Minister of Canada. 157 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 5: Of course, they want both of their countries to do well, 158 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 5: and they want to come to a mutual agreement. 159 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 4: A lot of the stuff that they talked about. 160 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 5: I just got the most comfortable feeling listening to these 161 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 5: two talks. Carneal told Trump that Canada is the US 162 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 5: largest foreign investor, suggested that the pace of investment may 163 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 5: accelerate probably one trillion in the next five years as 164 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,559 Speaker 5: we get the agreement. There are areas where we compete, 165 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 5: and those areas where we have to come to an 166 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 5: agreement that works, as Carney said, but there are some 167 00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 5: areas where we are stronger together and that's what we're 168 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 5: focused on.

You know, 208 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 5: you start off with that adversarial type of a situation 209 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,839 Speaker 5: back in May when they first met, and then they 210 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 5: get over that and then get to the point where 211 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 5: they start negotiating.

Very historically accurate 222 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 5: on a lot of the stuff that was discussed in there. 223 00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 5: Two of the main characters, John Adams and Ben Franklin. 224 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 5: John Adams was kind of a They describe him during 225 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 5: the play and in a particular song as being obnoxious 226 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 5: and disliked because he's one of these and history points 227 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 5: out that he was kind of a very confrontational type 228 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 5: of an individual. He was one of these people that 229 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:43,079 Speaker 5: would just go for it with full gusto. Ben Franklin, 230 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 5: on the other hand, was the diplomat. He would try 231 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 5: to work behind the scenes to get things done with 232 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:54,840 Speaker 5: the bombast of John Adams getting the ball moving that 233 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 5: Ben frankl would come behind and try to smooth things over. 234 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,120 Speaker 5: I experienced that with a group that we formed here 235 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 5: in well, in my home city or in my home 236 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 5: county in northern Kentucky, Campbell County, when we formed a 237 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 5: group group called the Independent Business Association of Northern Kentucky. 238 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 5: We were trying to get certain things done, and get 239 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 5: certain things done as far as the various county commissioners, 240 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 5: trying to lower tax rates, trying to get certain things accomplished, 241 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 5: trying to eliminate or actually eliminate the talk of having 242 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 5: tolls in the Brent Spnz Bridge, and some other things 243 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 5: that were going on. 244 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 4: And I don't want to go into. 245 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 5: All the details, but I found during those negotiations of 246 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 5: dealing with the city commitssion or county commissioners and even 247 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 5: the cities themselves that I am kind of more of 248 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 5: the John John Adams type where I just want to 249 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 5: go for I want to, you know, kind of rattle 250 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 5: the things a little bit and point out to where 251 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 5: the ignorance of these people are going. One of the 252 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 5: members of the organization people kept referring to them as 253 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 5: Switzerland because he would come in and try to make 254 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 5: phone calls, go have lunch with the people, kind of 255 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 5: smooth things over, and then try to arrange some sort 256 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 5: of you know, off the books type of discussions. But 257 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 5: the combination of the two of us we got an 258 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 5: awful lot accomplished and got some things changed in all 259 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 5: the counties in northern Kentucky as and you know, not 260 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 5: only in Campbell County, with Kenton County and Boone County 261 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 5: as well. And so it's kind of this contract. Donald 262 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 5: Trump's more of a is more of a John Adams 263 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 5: type of an individual where he will kind of, you know, 264 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 5: kind of shock people at first with some of the 265 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 5: stuff that he does, but then as a result in 266 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 5: the negotiation, getting the negotiation started, and then as a 267 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 5: result of looking at those negotiations, adapt and adjust where 268 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 5: he's coming from in order to get something accomplished. And 269 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 5: this is what I saw between the two of them 270 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 5: when they were discussing this in the Oval Office. US 271 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:59,280 Speaker 5: tariffs on steel, auto lumber or battering key Canadian industries 272 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 5: and UGUS. First, Trump raised levies on goods that don't 273 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 5: comply with the US Mexico Canadian agreement to thirty five 274 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 5: and thirty and twenty from twenty five percent. The trade 275 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:15,600 Speaker 5: war has caused losses and put a chill on business investment, 276 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 5: pushing Canada's economy to contract in the second quarter. 277 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 4: Again, when you look at the. 278 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 5: Type of trade negotiations or what tariffs were in place, 279 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 5: prior to April the second Liberation Day, when Donald Trump 280 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:33,400 Speaker 5: started announcing these various tariffs. Looking at the chart on 281 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 5: some of the items that were charged, two hundred and 282 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 5: ninety nine percent tariff on our dairy goods going into Canada, 283 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 5: and we hardly charge any tariffs on their stuff coming 284 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 5: into the United States. 285 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 4: That's ridiculous. 286 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 5: The fact that we don't sell much products over there 287 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 5: creates problems as far as our economy is concerned, job 288 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 5: losses or individual businesses not being able to expand as 289 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 5: much as they could. And the fact that this market 290 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 5: is just across the border should be a natural partner 291 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 5: for us. And the fact that this was a trade 292 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 5: in balance in the terraffs rout of whack. Something needed 293 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 5: to be done. Now, I guess you could have done 294 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 5: something more in the way of at Ben Franklin type 295 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 5: of thing, a behind the scenes kind of soft negotiations 296 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 5: and that type of thing, but a lot of times 297 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:26,119 Speaker 5: that takes more time. And by Trump coming in on 298 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 5: Liberation Day and slapping these tariffs on pending the negotiation. 299 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 5: Now remember when he did this, he was talking about 300 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 5: the fentanyl increase, the drugs coming up from Mexico, and 301 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 5: drugs coming in from Canada and kind of a penalty 302 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 5: on that. They started clamping down in Canada, they started 303 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 5: clamping down in Mexico. To comply with that, he rolled 304 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 5: back and adjusted some of the terriffs and then kept 305 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 5: some of the tariffs in place, trying to get more 306 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 5: of a fair trade as opposed to free trade. You 307 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,120 Speaker 5: can have all the free trade you want, but if 308 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,400 Speaker 5: your products can be sold in these other countries because 309 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:06,879 Speaker 5: of the import duties and the trade negotiations and the 310 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 5: problems with their import situation as well as tariffs, all 311 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,159 Speaker 5: the free trade in the world isn't going to do 312 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 5: anything because you can't sell your products there. So by 313 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 5: negotiating these tariffs and again it's more of a bombastic 314 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 5: way of doing it bought up to this point has 315 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 5: been effective, and especially with Canada the way carneye being 316 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:32,360 Speaker 5: a central banker, coming from a business background and understanding economics, 317 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,640 Speaker 5: realized this and said, Okay, you know. 318 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,919 Speaker 4: You've made your point. Now let's discuss these things. 319 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,480 Speaker 5: And I'm just amazed at how this is going on. 320 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 5: Carney offered an olive branch to Trump in August when 321 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:49,439 Speaker 5: he announced lifting of most of Canada's retaliatory teriffs on 322 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 5: imports from the US. Carney's predecessor, Justin Trudeau, imposed counter 323 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 5: tariffs of about sixty billion dollars Canadian forty three billion 324 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 5: dollars American American dollars of US products. Canada new policy 325 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 5: on counter teriffs is to apply them to areas where 326 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,879 Speaker 5: the UF tariffs US tariffs are in place, such as 327 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:15,879 Speaker 5: steel and aluminum. This is the way stuff gets done 328 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 5: between adults. You make your point, then you negotiate, you 329 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 5: come back, and you make some sort of an agreement. 330 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:28,560 Speaker 5: We're working on formulas, according to Trump. He said, we're 331 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 5: working on formulas, and I think we'll get there.

And this is, you know, this 506 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 5: is the problem is that when you see ninety four 507 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 5: percent negative coverage, no wonder a lot of people have 508 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 5: a bad idea or bad thoughts in terms of what's 509 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 5: going on in the economy. But everything that we're seeing 510 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 5: in terms of spending, retail sales, car sales, used truck 511 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 5: sales and stuff, all these things are surprisingly unexpectedly better 512 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 5: than expected. 513 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 4: So you know, where is the negativity? Who's wrong? 514 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 5: If things are going along well and they're talking about 515 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 5: things going badly, I would say their credibility is more 516 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:42,000 Speaker 5: on the line as opposed to what the truth is 517 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 5: as far as what's coming out of the Trump administration. 518 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 5: But again, they have to throw these digs in there. 519 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 5: The latest expansion of his tariff regime, let me see 520 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 5: the proposal has been subject to intense lobbying campaign by 521 00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 5: Detroit's legacy automakers. Trump originally said last month that the 522 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 5: heavy duty truck levies would start October the first, but 523 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 5: that timeline slipped as officials heard appeals from companies concerned 524 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 5: about the impact. Again, you adjust what you're doing based 525 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 5: on the new information, data and progress of the talks. 526 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 5: It's kind of almost like a football game. You go 527 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 5: in with a particular game plan, you say that this 528 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 5: is how we're going to go, and this is what 529 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 5: the plays we're going to run in the first quarter. 530 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 5: This is the defense that we're going to be using 531 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 5: against what we anticipate the other team to do. But 532 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,040 Speaker 5: once you get on the field and things happen, you 533 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 5: don't keep with the game plan if it ain't working, 534 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 5: so you make adjustments. That's why you have during the halftime. 535 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,360 Speaker 5: You see sometimes in some of these games where the 536 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 5: momentum is going in one way and because of adjustments 537 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 5: done during halftime, the momentum switches the other way. So 538 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 5: it's you know, like I said, it's like a football game. 539 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 5: You adjust to what is going on. If they're doing 540 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 5: certain things that you don't have a defense, you adjust 541 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 5: your defense to maybe counterbalance that. If things aren't working 542 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 5: as far as your offense is concerned, if your running 543 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 5: game isn't doing well, then you switch to maybe a 544 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:21,200 Speaker 5: run pass the offense, play action passes, staying not staying 545 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,800 Speaker 5: in the pocket, rolling out, doing different things counterplace. All 546 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 5: these kinds of things that you put into place in 547 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,959 Speaker 5: order to adjust your game plan to make a success. 548 00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 5: And this again is what's going on here. Beginning November one, 549 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 5: twenty twenty five, all medium and heavy duty trucks coming 550 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 5: into the United States from other countries will be tariffed 551 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 5: at the rate of twenty five percent, the president posted 552 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:47,240 Speaker 5: October the sixth, without offering further details. Trump's announcement is 553 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 5: tied to a probe launched in April by the Commerce 554 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 5: Department into heavy truck imports. That investigation conducted under Section 555 00:31:56,440 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 5: two thirty two of the Trade Expansion Act. The imposition 556 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 5: of import taxes on goods deemed critical to national security. 557 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 5: Our automobile manufacturers, our truck manufacturers, our American jobs are 558 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 5: a matter of national security. And the stronger our businesses are, 559 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 5: the better that we will be able to have commerce 560 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 5: within this country and be able to have a strong economy. 561 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 5: So it is a national emergency the fact that you 562 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 5: put these in place. And again, if they don't want 563 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 5: the tariffs on their products, then reduce your tariffs on 564 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 5: stuff coming into your country so that we can balance 565 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:40,520 Speaker 5: out this trade and come to a mutual understanding. So 566 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:44,040 Speaker 5: again the ball is in their court. If they don't 567 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 5: want twenty five percent increases on their trucks coming into 568 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,719 Speaker 5: the United States, then they can lower their prices and 569 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 5: lower their tariffs. Trump's announcement, let's see tried the probe 570 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 5: focused on medium and heavy duty trucks weighing more than 571 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 5: ten thousand pounds, as well as parts, with Commerce stating 572 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 5: that the smaller number of foreign suppliers made up the 573 00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 5: bulk of US imports due to predatory trade practices. One 574 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 5: of the things, again Donald Trump pulling back the curtain 575 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 5: and talking about certain things which had been going on 576 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 5: for years. All of a sudden, you see how many 577 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 5: companies or how much business has gone overseas, the manufacturing 578 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:29,360 Speaker 5: and stuff that we need here in the United States. 579 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 5: How our Congress, Senate and presidents at the time allowed 580 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 5: all these jobs to go overseas at at the cost 581 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:44,800 Speaker 5: of our businesses, our manufacturing businesses here in the United States. 582 00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 5: So trying to pull that back now, mind you, this 583 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:52,560 Speaker 5: is something remember when Trump first became president, or around 584 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 5: the time that Trump was running in twenty sixteen and 585 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:56,560 Speaker 5: Obama was out. 586 00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 4: There says, what are you going to do? 587 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 5: Wave a magic wand and have all these manufacturing jobs 588 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 5: come back to the United States. It's never going to happen. Well, Barry, 589 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 5: don't you get tired of being right all the time? 590 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:13,360 Speaker 5: Because it certainly is headed in that direction. We're bringing 591 00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:16,320 Speaker 5: a lot of manufacturing jobs back to the United States 592 00:34:16,520 --> 00:34:22,520 Speaker 5: and beefing up the automobiles businesses and the manufacturing in 593 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 5: this country. The duties threatening an industry already reeling impacts 594 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:32,080 Speaker 5: from terriffs on steel, aluminum as well as tighter environmental regulations. 595 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 5: Now again they have to throw this in on environmental regulations. 596 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,760 Speaker 5: A lot of these regulations that have been rolled back 597 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,239 Speaker 5: and stuff were not a matter of reality, and the 598 00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 5: fact that our businesses were suffering and our companies were 599 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:50,959 Speaker 5: being fined because of these unrealistic expectations was a drain 600 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:54,359 Speaker 5: on these companies and for no really benefit as far 601 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 5: as the environment is concerned, because some of these regulations 602 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:00,360 Speaker 5: were ridiculous. And I point out the fact that again 603 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:03,799 Speaker 5: you take you know, when you're talking about environmental and 604 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 5: talking about pollution, look at a truck. It takes sixty 605 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:13,880 Speaker 5: trucks today to equal the emissions of one truck back 606 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,920 Speaker 5: in nineteen eighty eight. That's how far we've come in 607 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 5: terms of pollution control, pollution improvement, and eliminating of pollutants 608 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:25,600 Speaker 5: going into the air. Tailpipe emissions on cars are about 609 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 5: ninety something around the range of ninety nine percent cleaner 610 00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 5: than what they were back in the beginning of the 611 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 5: nineteen nineties. So we have come a long way, and 612 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 5: there's still room to go, but we're heading in the 613 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,840 Speaker 5: right direction. Trump's planning terraff on import heavy duty trucks 614 00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 5: are a huge win for American auto workers and US manufacturing, 615 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 5: according to Nick Aya Cavello, the Coalition for Prosperous Prosperous America. Now, 616 00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 5: of course they have to throw in here again, this 617 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 5: is a bloomberg artic, a protectionist group. Well, if you 618 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:06,719 Speaker 5: are an American company, and if you are an American president, 619 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:10,880 Speaker 5: don't you want your company country to do well, and 620 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 5: shouldn't you be doing things that protect the workers, protect 621 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 5: your industries, protect your manufacturing. How was that? That's pro American? 622 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 5: That's not protectionists. Pick this up in a little bit more. 623 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 5: We've got some other mischief.

Alice from Oregon. 669 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 18: I thought pantries were for less fortunate people, but anybody 670 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:26,920 Speaker 18: could be less fortunate in a day or even a second. 671 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:32,200 Speaker 18: Claire from Virginia, the Feeding America Network of food Banks 672 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:35,759 Speaker 18: helps provide over six billion meals to people in need 673 00:39:35,880 --> 00:39:39,799 Speaker 18: each year.

Hey, 682 00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 5: how's about some How's about some more good news? 683 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:22,400 Speaker 4: Okay? 684 00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:29,040 Speaker 5: US chicken prices fall eighteen percent from summer peak. What 685 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 5: they said inflation was going to continue, the terrorists, We're 686 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:34,160 Speaker 5: going to throw us into a recession. That all this stuff, 687 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 5: the economic policies of this administration weren't going to be 688 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 5: working again, don't theyk it't tired of being right all 689 00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 5: the time. As Americans had heated the catchphrase and indeed 690 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 5: eight more chicken during beef spike, poultry producers raked in 691 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 5: profits now falling chicken prices may be bringing that rally 692 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 5: to an end. Spot Chicken prices in the US have 693 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:02,560 Speaker 5: fallen eighteen percent since the summer barbecue season peak. At 694 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:07,000 Speaker 5: key production indicators suggest supply is finally catching up with 695 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 5: booming consumer demand. Some of the largest global meat producers, 696 00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,800 Speaker 5: including JBS, Tyson. 697 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:17,000 Speaker 4: Foods and Cargill, Inc. 698 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:21,200 Speaker 5: Have leaned on poultry profits to cushion losses of their 699 00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:26,280 Speaker 5: beef business, which have been impacted by the worst US 700 00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:32,240 Speaker 5: cattle shortage in decades. So when you hear people talking 701 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:36,799 Speaker 5: about high beef prices, and I've had this conversation with 702 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:41,839 Speaker 5: some people, kind of a side note. Two weekends ago, 703 00:41:41,960 --> 00:41:45,879 Speaker 5: there was a fiftieth fiftieth reunion of my class from 704 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 5: Xavier University from nineteen seventy five, and some of the 705 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:53,319 Speaker 5: people that I ran into there heard that I was 706 00:41:53,480 --> 00:41:56,880 Speaker 5: a radio talk show host. Went to my Facebook page 707 00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:01,160 Speaker 5: and a couple of the back came up to me said, 708 00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 5: are you really that conservative? Yeah, and probably not as 709 00:42:07,880 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 5: much as I put forth on Facebook. I can be 710 00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,839 Speaker 5: a little bit more than that. Why and started talking 711 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 5: about they wanted to talk about inflation. They said, oh, 712 00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:21,040 Speaker 5: you know, we're paying all kinds of money for beef, 713 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:23,319 Speaker 5: and I said, well, you know there's alternatives to that. 714 00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:25,799 Speaker 5: You can do certain other things, and it ain't a 715 00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 5: result of And of course they were saying, well, you know, 716 00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:32,120 Speaker 5: beef prices are up because of tariffs. I said, no, 717 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:34,919 Speaker 5: if you look at our cattle, if you go dig 718 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,799 Speaker 5: into the numbers as I have done, you see that 719 00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 5: our cattle herds are at the levels of where they 720 00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:44,759 Speaker 5: were back in the fifties and sixties, and so with 721 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:49,520 Speaker 5: the increase in population, they're not producing enough a cattle 722 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,799 Speaker 5: and they're not producing enough beef. This is starting to 723 00:42:52,920 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 5: change a little bit, but again we are still doing 724 00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:59,600 Speaker 5: some imports from other countries. But again this is a 725 00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:02,880 Speaker 5: matter of the shortage in the United States has nothing 726 00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:05,279 Speaker 5: to do with terriffs. It has more to do with 727 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:10,719 Speaker 5: not having the proper supply for the demand. And here 728 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 5: it is showing this out the worst US cattle shortage 729 00:43:14,520 --> 00:43:19,080 Speaker 5: in decades. A turn in chickens, futures or fortunes could 730 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:22,720 Speaker 5: leave companies more exposed to the prolonged beef slump, which 731 00:43:22,840 --> 00:43:26,839 Speaker 5: isn't expected to improve significantly before twenty twenty eight. Well, 732 00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:30,279 Speaker 5: I would suggest then to those countries companies rather that 733 00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,720 Speaker 5: if they're having these problems, hey, you know, get. 734 00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:36,120 Speaker 4: The cattle together, you know, hook up. 735 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:38,960 Speaker 5: The males, you know, with the females, and maybe produce 736 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:39,840 Speaker 5: a little bit more. 737 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:43,920 Speaker 4: You know. It's kind of a simple solution. You know. 738 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 4: You've got to herd. 739 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:47,360 Speaker 5: You've got males, you got females, you got you know, cows, 740 00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:49,560 Speaker 5: and you got you know whatever. Just go ahead and 741 00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 5: do some I don't know, take them with cattle singles, 742 00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:57,000 Speaker 5: bar or something, I don't know, but improve your cattle production. 743 00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:00,319 Speaker 5: US has seen an increase in the number of chicken plays, 744 00:44:01,360 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 5: improved egg fertility rates, and seasonally strong poultry slaughtering numbers, 745 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 5: all pointing to rising meat supply. The Department of Agricultures. 746 00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 5: So again you have higher meat supply, the chicken, higher supplies, 747 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:18,960 Speaker 5: the demand is there, prices start coming down. According to 748 00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 5: Banco Bradesco BBI analysts Enrique were Stolen and Pedro Fontana 749 00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:31,680 Speaker 5: said in a note, we are seeing signs that the 750 00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:35,280 Speaker 5: cycle could be heading down to a supply bottlenecks appearing 751 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:40,200 Speaker 5: to have increasingly solved. Meat suppliers shares have been under 752 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:44,120 Speaker 5: pressure too. JBS, the world's largest meat producer, has lost 753 00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:46,920 Speaker 5: eighteen percent over the past month and falling to the 754 00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:51,359 Speaker 5: lowess since July twenty twenty three. Pilgrim's Pride Corporation, which 755 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:58,240 Speaker 5: is controlled by JBS Tyson andrig Mar Frigg Global Foods 756 00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:03,160 Speaker 5: Essay have also seen clients. So when you start adjusting 757 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:06,880 Speaker 5: your supply, and you start increasing your supply and the 758 00:45:06,920 --> 00:45:11,200 Speaker 5: demand is there, then the prices start coming down. And 759 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:15,239 Speaker 5: as we've seen, people have adjusted if meat prices, if 760 00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:17,319 Speaker 5: stake prices, if beef prices are. 761 00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 4: High, they switch to chicken. 762 00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 5: And when you switch to chicken, you know, in some 763 00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:24,480 Speaker 5: cases a little bit healthier for you. And it's just 764 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 5: a matter of adjusting your family diet or grocery purchases based. 765 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:31,840 Speaker 4: On what's available. 766 00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:35,279 Speaker 5: And as we've seen, we've seen in certain areas where 767 00:45:35,280 --> 00:45:39,520 Speaker 5: certain prices have been have gone up, people have stopped 768 00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 5: buying those products and then all of a sudden, miraculously, 769 00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:47,360 Speaker 5: those prices start coming down. They start adjusting their game plan, 770 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:51,600 Speaker 5: if you will, back to what the market is doing 771 00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 5: and adjusting that accordingly. Let's take a look real quick 772 00:45:55,040 --> 00:45:57,200 Speaker 5: at the oil and gas prices before we have to 773 00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:58,120 Speaker 5: scoot out the door. 774 00:45:58,160 --> 00:45:58,399 Speaker 4: Here. 775 00:45:58,800 --> 00:46:01,720 Speaker 5: West Texas Intermediate CRUED currently is a sixty two dollars 776 00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:05,319 Speaker 5: and seventy two cents a barrel. That is up almost well, 777 00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:08,600 Speaker 5: actually a dollar or one point six percent or one 778 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:11,919 Speaker 5: point six oho percent. Brent crude currently is sixty six 779 00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:14,759 Speaker 5: dollars and thirty nine cents. That is up almost a 780 00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:18,319 Speaker 5: dollar or one point four to four percent. Now, just 781 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:22,040 Speaker 5: since January the twentieth, when Trump took office, West Texas 782 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:26,120 Speaker 5: intermediate crud is down fourteen dollars and seventeen cents a barrel, 783 00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:31,600 Speaker 5: That is a eighteen percent decrease. Brent crude currently at 784 00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:35,520 Speaker 5: sixty six thirty nine is down thirteen dollars and fifty 785 00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:40,839 Speaker 5: one cents, or a seventeen percent decline in refiner or 786 00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:44,360 Speaker 5: in oil prices. And I keep talking about the fact 787 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:48,000 Speaker 5: that I would like to see gas prices adjust accordingly, 788 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:51,480 Speaker 5: because again, if you've got oil going into the refinery 789 00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:55,040 Speaker 5: at a cheaper price the refining process, Now there are 790 00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:58,359 Speaker 5: certain increases in chemicals and stuff that they do at 791 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:02,360 Speaker 5: the refining process in order to produce gas, heating oil, 792 00:47:02,719 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 5: and diesel. Those cost factors go into place, but they 793 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 5: have been offset by the input in terms of oil prices. 794 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:12,440 Speaker 5: And I would like to see and we should be 795 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:15,520 Speaker 5: seeing or should have seen, about a ten percent or 796 00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:19,000 Speaker 5: so decrease in my opinion as far as gas and 797 00:47:19,080 --> 00:47:21,560 Speaker 5: diesel is concerned. And we're starting to see a little 798 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:25,120 Speaker 5: bit of break in that because current national average of 799 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:28,760 Speaker 5: gasoline had been riding around three. Now this is across 800 00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,960 Speaker 5: the board writing around three dollars and fourteen cents and 801 00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:36,160 Speaker 5: above on average per gallon throughout the United States. We 802 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:39,279 Speaker 5: are seeing that coming down. It's now down around three 803 00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:44,759 Speaker 5: dollars and eleven cents thereabouts. Now, this is kind of 804 00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:49,160 Speaker 5: that number is a little bit inaccurate, if you will, 805 00:47:49,719 --> 00:47:54,800 Speaker 5: because when you look at the gasoline prices in California, 806 00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:59,520 Speaker 5: when you look at gasoline prices in California averaging across 807 00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:03,360 Speaker 5: the board California at four dollars and sixty six cents 808 00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:06,920 Speaker 5: a gallon, that is going to throw off the national 809 00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:09,799 Speaker 5: average because if you look at a state like Oklahoma, 810 00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:13,800 Speaker 5: their average gasoline prices in that state are two dollars 811 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:18,800 Speaker 5: and sixty cents. California compared to Oklahoma is two dollars 812 00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:23,480 Speaker 5: and six cents higher per gallon. We're talking about gasoline, 813 00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:26,880 Speaker 5: and because of the restrictions, because of the stupidity of 814 00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:31,680 Speaker 5: California with all the they basically have their own market 815 00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:36,560 Speaker 5: over there where they require certain additives to the individual 816 00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:41,880 Speaker 5: gasoline in order for pollution control, and this is driving 817 00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:46,040 Speaker 5: up the prices there. Plus any of the this requires 818 00:48:46,160 --> 00:48:51,160 Speaker 5: special refining, which some of these refiners in California are 819 00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:56,160 Speaker 5: shutting down because of the environmental restrictions from California. So 820 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:59,440 Speaker 5: the supply that they have, they're putting the restrictions and 821 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:03,040 Speaker 5: additives on the gasoline. And this movement over there that 822 00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:08,520 Speaker 5: they want to eliminate gas internal combustion engines by twenty 823 00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:11,399 Speaker 5: thirty five is putting pressure on the prices over there. 824 00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:14,920 Speaker 5: And then with all this environmental stuff that they've done 825 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,680 Speaker 5: over the last twenty thirty years or so, the wildfires 826 00:49:18,719 --> 00:49:23,560 Speaker 5: in twenty twenty reduced all of their advancement as far 827 00:49:23,560 --> 00:49:27,440 Speaker 5: as clean air, eliminated everything they did done up until 828 00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:30,399 Speaker 5: twenty twenty. Then when you throw on top of that 829 00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:33,719 Speaker 5: the fires and the pollution were caused back in January 830 00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:35,319 Speaker 5: in Los Angeles. 831 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:39,120 Speaker 4: That further pushed that back.
