WEBVTT - Give Up The Forks! 0:00:07.260 --> 0:00:10.940 Now broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio at 0:00:10.980 --> 0:00:13.140 the George Washington Broadcast Center. 0:00:13.190 --> 0:00:15.380 Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. 0:00:15.560 --> 0:00:29.950 Armstrong and Getty. And now, here's Armstrong and Getty. Somebody 0:00:30.030 --> 0:00:34.050 keep stealing my forks. I'm going to get to the 0:00:34.090 --> 0:00:39.530 bottom of it. It's probably the housekeeper. I ordered overnighted 0:00:39.870 --> 0:00:42.570 a dozen forks to my house because I'm tired of 0:00:42.610 --> 0:00:45.480 dealing with no forks. Yes, Katie? Don't you keep one 0:00:45.520 --> 0:00:48.660 in your suit jacket? I do keep one fork in 0:00:48.700 --> 0:00:50.600 my suit jacket in case I'm ever going to need 0:00:50.640 --> 0:00:53.760 a pot. What are you complaining about? I'm always washing 0:00:53.780 --> 0:00:56.300 the last two forks because we got like three forks. 0:00:57.020 --> 0:00:59.330 And I said to the kids last night, look. One 0:00:59.350 --> 0:01:01.630 of you guys has forks in your room or something. 0:01:01.890 --> 0:01:04.910 Where do the forks go? Give up the forks. There's 0:01:05.170 --> 0:01:08.030 really only one option. It's either you or you. Who's 0:01:08.069 --> 0:01:11.310 got the forks? Ain't me. Where are they going? You 0:01:11.970 --> 0:01:14.640 got to toss their cell like a prison guard. Toss 0:01:14.720 --> 0:01:18.260 their cell. Exactly. Like Shawshank. You just go in there 0:01:18.300 --> 0:01:21.300 and you just. Katie's hubby could give you some tips 0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:24.880 on that. I can have Drew come do a shakedown easily. 0:01:24.920 --> 0:01:28.240 You know what? You could probably borrow some of his gear, too. 0:01:28.640 --> 0:01:31.810 find a half a dozen forks in the closet or something. 0:01:32.590 --> 0:01:36.490 Live from Studio C. C, senor. Dimly lit room deep 0:01:36.530 --> 0:01:39.429 within the bowels of the Armstrong and Getty communications compound, 0:01:39.470 --> 0:01:41.690 and today we're toiling under the title of the show. 0:01:42.140 --> 0:01:45.780 Are data centers the new witches? Wow. 0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:49.420 Or, if you prefer, similar to yesterday's headline, millions of 0:01:49.480 --> 0:01:52.520 Americans beg to be anesthetized until after the midterms. 0:01:52.620 --> 0:01:56.140 Yeah, no kidding. Nobody watches cable, so I don't know 0:01:56.600 --> 0:01:58.240 why I ever comment on it, but I watch a 0:01:58.280 --> 0:02:00.860 little cable thinking, I want to see if there's any news. 0:02:01.440 --> 0:02:05.700 Just every channel with voters concerned about the prices of gas. 0:02:06.140 --> 0:02:06.540 Yeah! 0:02:06.620 --> 0:02:09.160 How can you say that every day, every hour of 0:02:09.210 --> 0:02:12.630 your life for weeks? Why do you think that's interesting 0:02:12.650 --> 0:02:14.890 to anyone? Drives me crazy. 0:02:17.830 --> 0:02:20.709 I think a lot of cable news exists to be 0:02:20.790 --> 0:02:22.010 playing in the background. 0:02:22.050 --> 0:02:22.750 Maybe it does. 0:02:23.230 --> 0:02:23.290 Of. 0:02:24.510 --> 0:02:28.810 Airport terminals of people's houses. Or old people who just 0:02:28.850 --> 0:02:29.810 put it on and leave it on. 0:02:30.370 --> 0:02:33.470 The legendary Fox News playing too loud all day long, yes. 0:02:33.750 --> 0:02:39.470 We have a couple clips from a debate in Michigan 0:02:39.510 --> 0:02:41.620 last night, El Sayed and Mike Rogers, which is one 0:02:41.639 --> 0:02:45.300 of the more interesting races in recent memory. Because if 0:02:45.380 --> 0:02:48.400 the Democrat wins, it will be the most radical U.S. 0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:54.560 Senator we've maybe ever had, certainly post-Civil War. It's really amazing. Yeah, yeah. 0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:58.320 But I was wondering, watching the debate last night, I 0:02:58.380 --> 0:03:01.520 wonder how he's wearing. He's currently in the lead in 0:03:01.820 --> 0:03:04.460 almost every poll. But I wonder how he's wearing on people. 0:03:04.500 --> 0:03:07.049 He might have a bit of the Chris Christie thing, 0:03:07.070 --> 0:03:10.190 that when you first, first several times you hear him, 0:03:10.210 --> 0:03:14.049 he just comes off as confident, smart, and aggressive. But 0:03:14.230 --> 0:03:17.470 over time, it becomes more of, you think you're smarter 0:03:17.510 --> 0:03:20.700 than everybody you've ever met, and you're way too aggressive. 0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:23.710 You're just abrasive. Oh, right. Exactly. Yeah. 0:03:23.770 --> 0:03:28.710 And your your confidence easily bleeds into just complete lack. Well, 0:03:28.770 --> 0:03:33.570 it's what's the disdain? You're disdainful of people who dare 0:03:33.660 --> 0:03:34.340 ask you questions. 0:03:34.400 --> 0:03:34.630 Right. 0:03:34.750 --> 0:03:37.580 And that's what Ramaswamy is cut from a similar cloth. Yeah. 0:03:37.700 --> 0:03:39.880 And I felt like that happened with Chris Christie over time. 0:03:40.080 --> 0:03:41.820 Like at the beginning, it's like, oh, cool. Look at 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:43.980 him sticking into people. He sticks it to everybody who 0:03:44.020 --> 0:03:46.800 asks him a question about anything always. And it eventually 0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:49.870 becomes annoying. I wonder if maybe El Sayed's wearing that 0:03:49.930 --> 0:03:51.650 way on people in Michigan. I guess we'll see. 0:03:52.240 --> 0:03:55.780 I think so, and also his personal charm will tend 0:03:55.800 --> 0:03:59.320 to give way to his policies as you get past, wow, 0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:02.160 he's very sharp and handsome and friendly, and wait, he 0:04:02.220 --> 0:04:03.020 believes that? 0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:06.500 And that? So the more you know him, the less 0:04:06.540 --> 0:04:07.200 you like him, perhaps. 0:04:07.700 --> 0:04:09.760 Speaking of the Islamists, though, I was doing a bit 0:04:09.780 --> 0:04:13.760 of reading yesterday about there are some pretty prominent Islamic 0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:19.060 scholars who have pitched the idea that socialism slash communism 0:04:19.220 --> 0:04:23.350 actually jibes quite nicely with With the Koran. And, you know, 0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:25.870 I've often described the Red-Green Alliance as, hey, I want 0:04:25.890 --> 0:04:27.150 to overthrow Western civilization. 0:04:27.190 --> 0:04:28.870 You want to overthrow it. Let's work together. 0:04:29.190 --> 0:04:31.950 We'll overthrow civilization, then fight for the spoils and generally 0:04:32.230 --> 0:04:35.050 slaughter each other. But indeed, there is an offshoot of 0:04:35.130 --> 0:04:39.880 Islam that embraces communism as being a good way to, 0:04:39.960 --> 0:04:44.340 you know, express Allah's wishes for mankind. So he might 0:04:44.420 --> 0:04:47.280 just be one of those guys. He's an actual Islamist. 0:04:47.320 --> 0:04:49.760 He wants communism in the name of the Koran. 0:04:50.540 --> 0:04:55.760 My favorite election-related thing was Trump brought Evander Holyfield on 0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:59.140 stage in South Carolina last night. That's it. Now they've 0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:02.630 gotten my vote. We'll play that later. And decent chance 0:05:02.650 --> 0:05:05.170 you don't know, he was the heavyweight champion of the 0:05:05.210 --> 0:05:08.990 world in the 80s? Early 90s? Long, long time ago. 0:05:09.810 --> 0:05:17.419 And not exactly Samuel Johnson when it comes to speaking. Wow. Wow. 0:05:18.040 --> 0:05:19.859 He was paid to hit other men in the head. 0:05:20.140 --> 0:05:21.560 I mean, he got hit quite a bit. 0:05:21.600 --> 0:05:21.980 Well, yeah. 0:05:22.500 --> 0:05:25.670 He was paid to hit other men in the head. Yes. 0:05:25.900 --> 0:05:28.870 Excellent point. He was not paid to orate. 0:05:29.589 --> 0:05:29.830 No. 0:05:29.890 --> 0:05:31.810 But then don't bring him up as an orator. If 0:05:31.830 --> 0:05:33.270 you need to bring him up to hit other men 0:05:33.310 --> 0:05:41.159 in the head, perfect choice. No H.L. Mencken, he. I mean, 0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:43.000 they had some protesters out in the crowd that had 0:05:43.020 --> 0:05:44.719 to be subdued. That's what you should have sent him 0:05:44.779 --> 0:05:46.080 out there for. Exactly. 0:05:46.430 --> 0:05:48.790 Although he's old as the hills, right? He's got to be. 0:05:49.690 --> 0:05:52.950 It's just funny. Some of Trump's celebrities' choices are funny. 0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:57.820 They really are. Number of people saying they're throwing the 0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:02.340 forks away when they throw out food. Could be. Teenager thing? 0:06:03.580 --> 0:06:04.580 I like your theory better. 0:06:04.700 --> 0:06:06.620 They just have a snack there and it just kind 0:06:06.670 --> 0:06:09.430 of tumbles off the table. 0:06:08.950 --> 0:06:11.710 Or behind the bed. Exactly. You got to go in 0:06:11.730 --> 0:06:13.550 there with a metal detector. Michael's got a theory. 0:06:13.650 --> 0:06:16.250 No, just Evander Holyfield, 64. 0:06:16.250 --> 0:06:21.510 Yeah, well, he sounds like a guy who's been hitting 0:06:21.529 --> 0:06:23.430 the head a lot, but we'll play that later. We've 0:06:23.450 --> 0:06:25.150 got a bunch of stuff on that, and there's some 0:06:25.210 --> 0:06:28.520 recent polling, and who cares. The big story dropped yesterday. 0:06:28.540 --> 0:06:29.000 True or not? 0:06:29.100 --> 0:06:29.420 I don't know. 0:06:29.480 --> 0:06:32.620 Leaked on purpose. Who knows that the United States and 0:06:32.860 --> 0:06:37.080 Israel are preparing for a major strike against Iran right 0:06:37.140 --> 0:06:39.320 after the election. Trump was asked about it yesterday, and 0:06:39.339 --> 0:06:41.000 he said, I don't know. Some people say after. Some 0:06:41.020 --> 0:06:41.750 people say before. 0:06:41.790 --> 0:06:42.070 I don't know. 0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:47.380 It could happen. But... Whoever leaked it, I hope it 0:06:47.420 --> 0:06:49.910 was on purpose. I hope it was a, hey, Iran, 0:06:50.610 --> 0:06:53.330 we're almost tired of this and there's a price to 0:06:53.370 --> 0:06:58.090 pay or something. And not people undermining and announcing ahead 0:06:58.130 --> 0:07:01.190 of time an attack when we're at war. Because sources 0:07:01.250 --> 0:07:04.860 familiar told the Washington Post that we're preparing for an attack. Well, 0:07:05.060 --> 0:07:06.760 why are you telling the Washington Post? 0:07:07.779 --> 0:07:09.420 And I was going to accuse the Washington Post of 0:07:09.500 --> 0:07:14.460 treason on another story, but I find it both hilarious, ridiculous, 0:07:14.560 --> 0:07:17.310 and so Trumpy that he goes with the, well, some 0:07:17.350 --> 0:07:20.150 people are saying before the election, some people are saying after. 0:07:20.430 --> 0:07:23.070 It's like asking me, where are you and Judy going 0:07:23.090 --> 0:07:27.170 for Christmas? Well, some people say Europe. Some people say 0:07:27.210 --> 0:07:29.590 the West Coast. I don't know. 0:07:29.610 --> 0:07:32.090 No, you're in charge. We'll have to see. We'll have 0:07:32.130 --> 0:07:34.790 to see. No, you're the guy. 0:07:34.810 --> 0:07:37.230 You're like literally the guy. 0:07:37.730 --> 0:07:41.830 Who would know? That is kind of funny. You are 0:07:41.870 --> 0:07:44.850 the one person that makes the decision that could make 0:07:44.870 --> 0:07:47.810 it all not happen or make it all happen. Some 0:07:47.870 --> 0:07:50.390 say a big strike. I guess we'll have to see. 0:07:50.410 --> 0:07:54.160 We'll have to see. Let's start the show officially, and 0:07:54.180 --> 0:07:55.920 then we can get on with our lives here pretty soon. 0:07:56.020 --> 0:07:58.120 I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe Getty. On this, it is. 0:07:58.200 --> 0:08:01.980 It's Thursday, October 22nd, the year 2026. We're Armstrong and Getty, 0:08:02.000 --> 0:08:04.360 and we approve of this program. All right, let's begin. 0:08:04.400 --> 0:08:07.960 According to FCC rules and regulations, the show starts at mark. 0:08:08.930 --> 0:08:11.380 Hi i walked in the room and i forgot why 0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:14.380 i'm here i put down the keys and they vanished 0:08:14.460 --> 0:08:17.420 in thin air i started one job then i started 0:08:17.460 --> 0:08:20.760 two more i've got adhd it's not. 0:08:20.540 --> 0:08:21.680 My fault. 0:08:24.330 --> 0:08:28.390 Wow what the what i ended up on a twitter 0:08:28.510 --> 0:08:31.470 thread about adhd a while back and it had a 0:08:31.530 --> 0:08:33.620 whole bunch of stuff like that if you do this 0:08:33.640 --> 0:08:35.319 if you do this you do this and It gets 0:08:35.380 --> 0:08:37.800 to your thing you've been saying lately of at what 0:08:37.920 --> 0:08:40.819 point is it's not that I don't believe in there's 0:08:40.860 --> 0:08:43.339 such thing as ADHD. I have a close family member 0:08:43.380 --> 0:08:46.680 who has it, and it's very clear when on medication 0:08:46.710 --> 0:08:51.510 and when not very, very clear. But all these things 0:08:51.530 --> 0:08:54.449 have broadened so much that it just encompasses like a 0:08:54.570 --> 0:08:56.830 third to a half of everyone. And at what point 0:08:56.870 --> 0:09:01.460 is it just part of being a human being? Yes. Yeah. 0:09:01.580 --> 0:09:04.060 And especially in an era where you have to be 0:09:04.100 --> 0:09:06.960 able to cite, I'm a little OCD or, you know, 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:09.480 I've got anxiety and depression and blah, blah, blah. 0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:10.780 And everybody claims to have everything. 0:09:11.059 --> 0:09:11.179 Yeah. 0:09:11.200 --> 0:09:13.579 At what point does it go from just part of 0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:15.800 the human experience to, okay, you have an actual problem 0:09:15.820 --> 0:09:16.420 with this. 0:09:16.520 --> 0:09:18.510 It's too much. It's difficult to manage. 0:09:18.550 --> 0:09:18.910 I don't know. 0:09:18.970 --> 0:09:21.510 Nobody knows. I have a lot of interesting information or 0:09:21.550 --> 0:09:23.550 thoughts on that. I'll get into a little bit later 0:09:23.590 --> 0:09:27.390 in the show. Joe's leaving early-ish, so I saved a 0:09:27.550 --> 0:09:32.089 long discussion topic for... when Joe takes off something to 0:09:32.130 --> 0:09:35.600 talk about, but yeah, that's something we really, really need 0:09:35.620 --> 0:09:38.360 to nail down. There have always been some people that 0:09:38.400 --> 0:09:40.939 are very relaxed and some people who are uptight and 0:09:41.100 --> 0:09:45.820 some people who are, you know, have this flaw to overcome, 0:09:46.179 --> 0:09:48.199 but not that one. And the other person has this 0:09:48.280 --> 0:09:50.280 one and not that one. I mean, and it's just, 0:09:50.300 --> 0:09:55.350 that's just the, the grand spectrum of human beings. And 0:09:55.610 --> 0:09:58.089 I don't notice every single one of those need to 0:09:58.130 --> 0:10:01.680 have a name. And then even if it has a name, 0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:04.960 what good does it do anyone? Does it do you 0:10:05.000 --> 0:10:05.380 any good? 0:10:06.080 --> 0:10:09.459 Well, and I'm sure you'll get into this aspect of 0:10:09.500 --> 0:10:13.780 this as well. But at what point does the availability 0:10:13.800 --> 0:10:18.590 of pharmaceuticals, for some people anyway... become a substitute for 0:10:18.730 --> 0:10:22.730 the sort of personal development, coping mechanisms, et cetera, that 0:10:22.770 --> 0:10:26.760 you might develop otherwise. And I'm not saying, well, I'm 0:10:26.780 --> 0:10:30.740 not going to anticipate people's irrational objections. Some people ought 0:10:30.760 --> 0:10:34.880 to just learn to deal with it. And some people, no, no, 0:10:35.280 --> 0:10:37.850 they need help, clearly. But it's difficult to know which 0:10:37.929 --> 0:10:38.310 one you are. 0:10:38.330 --> 0:10:40.890 Yeah, I have a friend whose daughter had a... I 0:10:40.929 --> 0:10:43.069 forget what her specific thing was, but she had to 0:10:43.130 --> 0:10:45.670 come up with... She's now a doctor. She made it 0:10:45.700 --> 0:10:50.300 through medical school. But she had all kinds of workarounds 0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:52.000 that she had to come up with in her life 0:10:53.320 --> 0:10:55.760 to be able to focus enough to do anything, like 0:10:55.780 --> 0:10:57.620 to even get dressed and get out the door, let 0:10:57.660 --> 0:11:01.260 alone study and all that sort of stuff, with various distractions, 0:11:01.340 --> 0:11:03.920 like colored ribbons on things. It was just the only 0:11:04.020 --> 0:11:09.059 way to... To manage around the way her brain worked 0:11:09.140 --> 0:11:11.640 as a young person who's got whatever it is that 0:11:11.660 --> 0:11:14.780 we're doing to people in the world right now. Yeah. 0:11:14.960 --> 0:11:18.960 Plastics or cell phone towers or who knows what. Social media. 0:11:19.380 --> 0:11:21.840 Who knows. Yeah, I would. That's fascinating. 0:11:21.860 --> 0:11:22.040 Oh, it is. 0:11:22.040 --> 0:11:23.680 She ought to write a book. It really is. Yeah, 0:11:23.840 --> 0:11:24.940 I would agree. I'm going to say that to her 0:11:24.980 --> 0:11:26.500 next time I see her. You should write a book 0:11:26.520 --> 0:11:29.900 because that's really quite amazing. Katie's got her headlines on 0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:31.360 the way. There's a lot of big stories, as always, 0:11:31.380 --> 0:11:34.060 to get into. And we'll break down the, you know, 0:11:34.080 --> 0:11:37.730 the fourth district in Ohio and blah, blah, blah. Stay tuned. 0:11:39.570 --> 0:11:44.309 Armstrong and Getty. 0:11:45.630 --> 0:11:47.290 The Armstrong and Getty Show. 0:11:50.110 --> 0:11:52.210 Having my first sip of coffee of the day. I'm 0:11:52.250 --> 0:11:53.550 glad I can share it with you because it is 0:11:53.610 --> 0:11:56.590 one of the great moments of any day. Outside of 0:11:57.110 --> 0:11:59.650 sexual bliss, it's about as good as anything can get. 0:11:59.790 --> 0:12:00.150 Oh, gee. 0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:04.939 Wow. All right. For some reason. You're burning my eyes. 0:12:05.520 --> 0:12:07.179 If you had slurped, I would have quit. Oh, I 0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:09.100 do not slurp. I'm glad you didn't do that. For 0:12:09.120 --> 0:12:12.000 some reason, it reminds me of the Winston Churchill quote 0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:14.589 about drinking. I feel sorry for people who don't drink 0:12:14.630 --> 0:12:15.970 because when they get up in the morning, that's the 0:12:16.010 --> 0:12:19.770 best they're going to feel all day. But I feel 0:12:19.820 --> 0:12:21.000 really good after that sip of coffee. 0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:22.320 Yes. Excellent. 0:12:22.360 --> 0:12:24.600 Let's figure out who's reporting what. It's the lead story 0:12:24.640 --> 0:12:25.820 with Katie Green. Katie. 0:12:26.140 --> 0:12:26.459 All right. 0:12:26.500 --> 0:12:27.339 Different vibe today. 0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:30.980 We're going to go through the top headlines from the 0:12:31.020 --> 0:12:34.380 three major networks. From ABC, they think the big story 0:12:34.460 --> 0:12:39.459 is Democrats sue Trump administration over alleged election pressure campaign. 0:12:39.480 --> 0:12:40.000 All right. 0:12:40.880 --> 0:12:41.220 NBC. 0:12:41.970 --> 0:12:46.690 Abdul El-Sayed and Mike Rogers' second debate clash sets up 0:12:46.770 --> 0:12:48.350 final sprint in Michigan. 0:12:48.530 --> 0:12:51.800 We'll play some highlights from that. And CBS. 0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:52.480 U.S. 0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:56.780 Reduces troop footprint in Middle East as indirect talks with 0:12:56.980 --> 0:12:58.179 Iran continue. 0:12:58.620 --> 0:13:00.700 Yeah, I should point out that it was the New 0:13:00.720 --> 0:13:04.610 York Times, not the Washington Post, that somebody leaked to CNN. 0:13:05.160 --> 0:13:07.880 that the U.S. and Israel are planning Iranian strikes after 0:13:07.920 --> 0:13:10.660 the election. I don't know why, with people with knowledge 0:13:10.720 --> 0:13:12.660 of that told the New York Times that. I hope 0:13:12.700 --> 0:13:16.880 it was on purpose and not because you don't agree 0:13:16.900 --> 0:13:18.000 with the policy or something. 0:13:19.760 --> 0:13:24.000 Speaking of the New York Times, student protests mushroom across Europe, 0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:26.920 exposing bleak views of the future. 0:13:27.140 --> 0:13:29.300 Yeah. Do you think what we saw over the weekend 0:13:29.340 --> 0:13:32.089 in France was the peak of it and then it'll 0:13:32.370 --> 0:13:35.720 kind of dissipate for now? until it inevitably comes back, 0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:37.600 or is it going to keep rolling on? 0:13:39.059 --> 0:13:40.960 I would think the anarchist types are going to give 0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:43.439 it a good try to keep it going, since they 0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:46.700 want to sow chaos and destruction. Depends how the French 0:13:46.740 --> 0:13:48.110 authorities react, I guess. 0:13:48.540 --> 0:13:52.290 Oh, no, coin flip. What do you think?

Anyway, we'll get into some of 0:17:31.720 --> 0:17:32.139 the news. 0:17:32.020 --> 0:17:32.300 Of the day. 0:17:50.800 --> 0:17:52.640 The Armstrong and Getty Show. 0:17:56.880 --> 0:18:00.660 Now, with the protesters already calling for new gatherings ahead 0:18:01.080 --> 0:18:04.929 of this weekend, especially on Saturday, the 24th of October, 0:18:05.070 --> 0:18:08.150 it remains to be seen whether these new measures drafted 0:18:08.210 --> 0:18:11.149 by both governments will be enough to calm the streets, 0:18:11.530 --> 0:18:15.340 or if indeed Europe will. is heading towards more protests 0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:17.240 towards the end of this year. 0:18:17.500 --> 0:18:20.840 Okay, so I've been taking in a ton on this story, 0:18:20.859 --> 0:18:22.760 and one thing that a lot of people agree on, 0:18:22.770 --> 0:18:25.230 because we just got into the conversation before the break of, 0:18:25.930 --> 0:18:28.929 was that the high point of the protests, and then 0:18:28.950 --> 0:18:33.570 they're going to taper off, as regularly happens, or are 0:18:33.590 --> 0:18:36.929 we just getting started? And everybody seems to agree that 0:18:36.950 --> 0:18:40.850 it has gone so far now, That the amount of 0:18:40.970 --> 0:18:45.740 force would be required to stop it is not an option. 0:18:46.160 --> 0:18:48.980 You would have to you'd have to go Tiananmen Square 0:18:50.100 --> 0:18:53.500 to stop these protests at this point to calm it down. 0:18:53.560 --> 0:18:55.900 And that's that's the problem with ever with that, with 0:18:55.960 --> 0:18:59.620 letting them get this out of hand ever. When they're 0:18:59.660 --> 0:19:04.840 burning down 200 year old. pieces of architecture beloved architecture 0:19:05.119 --> 0:19:07.210 and nobody's stopping it and they got a head of 0:19:07.230 --> 0:19:09.190 steam you'd have to get out there with a bunch 0:19:09.210 --> 0:19:11.910 of cops and start shooting people and mowing people down 0:19:11.970 --> 0:19:14.210 to stop it right and all of this of course 0:19:14.270 --> 0:19:16.750 is downstream of culture and the question is the the 0:19:16.810 --> 0:19:20.210 french people kind of in the middle um where are 0:19:20.270 --> 0:19:26.100 their sympathies are they so dependent now on government largesse 0:19:26.140 --> 0:19:28.300 and high taxes the the very things that are killing 0:19:28.340 --> 0:19:32.980 france That their sympathies lie with the rioters and looters? 0:19:33.220 --> 0:19:35.679 Or are they thinking, all right, I'm seeing my country burned. 0:19:36.180 --> 0:19:38.370 This is no good. I don't know. I'm a huge 0:19:38.410 --> 0:19:40.810 fan of revolutions and decay and stuff like that. And 0:19:40.830 --> 0:19:43.230 I've read about so many more of these. You don't know. 0:19:43.250 --> 0:19:48.210 You don't know until it happens, including the revolutionaries. You 0:19:48.270 --> 0:19:49.969 just don't know until you try. 0:19:50.119 --> 0:19:50.179 It. 0:19:50.410 --> 0:19:52.859 When you're Fidel Castro and you come out of the 0:19:52.920 --> 0:19:56.000 woods with your tiny gang, are the people going to 0:19:56.560 --> 0:19:58.600 join with the cops or join with you? You don't 0:19:58.660 --> 0:19:59.510 know until you try it. 0:20:00.160 --> 0:20:00.420 Wow. 0:20:00.780 --> 0:20:04.780 Yeah. So speaking of France, France's debt crisis deepens as 0:20:04.859 --> 0:20:08.240 foreign investors look for the exit, the foreign capital that 0:20:08.440 --> 0:20:13.410 finances France. Because let's review, you may recall last class, 0:20:13.470 --> 0:20:18.170
