I'm Andrew Genus. I'm the Co-Chief of Gastrointestinal Oncology at the John Thorough Cancer Center at Hackensack University Medical Center. Myself and my colleagues, we care for patients with all types of gastrointestinal malignancies.  And we see patients at all stages of diagnosis. I really think the John Thorough Cancer Center is a really special place. It has a very unique combination of really outstanding clinical care. You really have, you know, world-class physicians taking care of patients directly. We have a very strong research program. We do a lot of, you know, novel and innovative care that would only be accessible at other big academic medical centers and not at community centers. Successful therapy first and foremost starts with that relationship where the physician and the patient and the family are all on the same page. And I think if a patient understands what's wrong with them and then what we're trying to do to help them, that goes a long way towards success. When my patients need opinions from other specialists, we can get them virtually, we can get them within the context of the tumor board, we can get them because of my close relationships with those physicians over the phone, and then obviously ultimately with face-to-face consultations. I think another very important key to patient success that we really pride ourselves at at JTCC is you have to look at the individual patient when you're making decisions. We should always remember that we're treating the patient, we're not treating an illness or a cancer stage.  It may sound like it's recipe-driven and many cancer centers will focus on the recipe, but you really have to individualize those recipes, if you will, to the given individual. And now we're in the forefront of molecular medicine where we're starting to better understand the unique differences among patients and their cancers, which is, I think, going to throw the whole recipe concept of treatment out the window. And what I've seen with my colleagues and within the cancer center is there really has been this drive to become a truly world-class cancer center in what started out as, to be fair, you know, a small community oncology practice. And the people that work here are really driven to making this place as good as it can possibly be. And I frankly think that in terms of clinical care, we'll match toe-to-toe with any cancer center in the country, period.

Lasting peace, built on justice and understanding among nations. This is the objective of the United Nations. This is another program in the United Nations series of the Pacific story. One of the five special series presented by the National Broadcasting Company in a affiliated station to further world unity and world peace through understanding. For hundreds of years, the Pacific and the lands it touches have been the scene of struggle, conflict for gain and power, people against people, and the millions caught in the political and economic cross-current. Today, with most of the world's population concentrated around and in the Pacific, the events of the Pacific are a vital world concern. The Pacific story dedicates this series to the objective of the United Nations. Lasting peace, built on justice and understanding among nations. A new voice in the East. Think of the far East as man's reserve. Here, for thousands of years, woman has been the chapel of her lorded master. But today, something is happening in that vast region which promises to fix for succeeding generations the shape of things to come. Today, a new voice is heard in China, in India, the Philippines, even in tradition written Japan. A woman suffered in Japan is not a gift handed to us on a silver tray. It was won by the efforts of the Japanese women. This is Shizuikato, the former Baroness Ishimoto speaking at a political mass meeting for women at Hibiya Auditorium in Tokyo, the first ever held in Japan. I am a candidate for the diet as a hotelist. Behind me on the platform here sits one of my political rivals. This is our Kimi Kubishiro, a candidate of the Nebar Poffee. But on one important thing, we are in perfect agreement. If the women of Japan had heard a voice in our country's affairs, there never would have been a voice. So, the militarists and the industrial monopolies of the Zibatul are being liquidated. Our political parties of the old order are still permitted to exist. To resist their policies, outvote them. Our voting ratio to the men is 53 to 47. We women hold an American superiority of three million dollars. Last April, for the first time in history, Japanese women went to the polls to vote. Students, professional women, young mothers with babies strapped to their backs. Shizuikato, mother has a right to be here. But I am afraid. Over here, as a woman with a baby, this way.  The woman, Arita. Please, we are helping you. I do not know how to vote. Look at the sample ballot. See? The names of all our candidates for the diet. 75 are women. It does not seem possible. A new day is here. Remember what Mrs. Kato said at the meeting? We are having more power than men because we outnumber them. But I cannot get used to thinking that way. They are so different from everything I was taught as a girl. I know. I was taught the same thing from the Una da Gao. The treaties are greater learning for women.  I know my husband does not approve of my being here. But for once, you are doing our job, please. It is our fine feeling. Come. Let us through. We are going to vote. We are going to vote. At that election, 38 women were chosen for the Japanese diet. Women of all classes, from typists to university professors. The outside world was amazed. But the emancipation of Japanese women from feudalism was not as sudden as it seemed. The autonomous movement had its inception in the blue-sucking coterie organized in 1911. It was followed by the New Women's Association in 1920. And then, finally, the Women's Supply Federation. We came out under our true colors and waged a campaign for equal suffrage, just like our sisters of the Western nations. You, Tsuneko, recall the difficulties we had? One of the greatest was converting other women. They were afraid. We had to break down the traditions of honor back then. For that reason, the sudden opening of the ballot box to Japanese women was a tradition-suttering event. It was a personal triumph for me. I have devoted my life to the feminist movement. I was just a young girl in Nagano. We had organized for a demonstration. Tsuneko, are we going through with her? Of course. At noon, we start our march to the city. It is almost 12 o'clock now. We must show the officials that women demand some recognition. They get it and all that comes in. I wonder what will happen. It is our... Come, everybody! That ought to hold you for a while. What is your name? Tsuneko Akamatsu. I've heard of you, a troublemaker. The woman who thinks she's a man. I wouldn't be a man if I could. Then why should a young woman like you read this demonstration and get us up in jail?  You can't even understand what this demonstration means to the women of Japan. I was arrested in 10 perspectives. The officials who arrested me called me woman public enemy number one. And during the war, the officials accused me of sabotage against Japan. But Tsuneko persevered and Japan's defeat has been a victory for Tsuneko. Today, Tsuneko is the leader of thousands of women and her name is known far beyond the shores of Japan as a champion of the right of women. The name of Tsuneko Akamatsu has become synonymous with women's rights throughout the East, respected by her sisters, even in the Philippines, where the Philippines is by all odds the most independent woman of the Orient. We Japanese women used to envy the Filipina. She actually engaged in business, not just small shops, but industries, iron mines, sugar centrals, constructions, even an inter-island airline. Naturally the Japanese conquest stopped all that. The Japanese army tried to reduce the women of the Philippines to the same status as the women at home. And we Japanese have been called the most used women in the world. The result was not what the army expected. Women and girls, many professional and business women, flocked to the resistance movement. They put on men's clothes, bought as gorillas in the Philippine army, or gave their time to the women's auxiliary service. They had something to fight for. Four years before the war began, in the plebiscite of 1937, women's suffrage was permanently established in the Philippines. In India, too, some women can vote. But the right is limited to those who hold property or can meet educational tests. That is Therogenine Naidu, leader of the feminist movement in India, a woman who defied the teachings of the past to marry a man of lower caste. India, like Japan, is beginning to see the rise of women toward the position of their sisters in the western hemisphere. In a few cases, we have succeeded in electing a woman to the legislative assembly. But she must appear veiled in her burqa and rarity speech. Our progress has been slow. India has farther to go than almost any other eastern nation. In the complexity of problems in this land, the value of an Indian woman's life was tied up with age-old traditions, with religion, and with many other factors. Up until a little more than a hundred years ago, if a woman's husband died... Who is that woman stepping up to the funeral pyre? That is the widow. Who is she climbing up on the pyre? It is the ancient rite of Sati. Certainly Sati isn't still absurd.  Rik Veda has decreed that she make a burning sacrifice of herself. Well, we just can't stand by and permit her to destroy herself. You Americans do not understand. She has served her purpose in this life and is no longer... Good heavens! She's lighting the flames. Yes. This is barbaric. This must be stopped. Control yourself. It is the way. The practice of Sati went on, widows following their husbands in death. Until enlightenment decreed that it must end, with passing time, more and more voices demanded a new place for the Indian woman. And in 1920, when a restless, impatient India rallied around Mahatma Gandhi, in the ranks were many Indian women. We women see in this movement the chance for the freedom which within ourselves we have always longed for. Under the leadership of Mrs. Naidu, the women enlisted in the cause. Mrs. Naidu astonished the world by being elected president of the All India Congress. The practice of Sati had been abolished. But another ancient custom kept millions of Indian women shackled to the past. Mother, I want to go outside with the other. No, she is not to go. Our daughter is almost a woman now. She must be kept in Purda. Purda? You mean I'm as dress as Mother does? Covered all over? With only eye holes to see at her? Yes. You must be kept from the sight of the world. You must stay in your home as much as possible. And when you have to go into the streets, you must cover yourself with a veil. But why, Father? Again, that persistent question echoing down through the centuries. The answer had always been the same. But there came a time when that answer was no longer valid. It was 1939, the world was engulfed in war. Every available source of production power was needed. The great majority of Indians, even those who had opposed British policy, wanted to see the allies win the war. But there were not enough men with necessary skills, even in this vast and thickly populated country. For the first time, another reservoir of power was tapped. The women of India flocked into the factories, just as their sisters did in Western lands. We organized an auxiliary corps of more than 5,000 women of every creed and cup. We learned to be switchboard operators, telephone ordinates, wireless operators, plotters in the observers corps. We drove staff cars, replaced men as collects in military headquarters. And women medical graduates were recruited in the military medical service to serve abroad, as well as on the home front. They were commissioned, and their pay was the same as their brother officers. The bars were down at plant. Indian womanhood came out from behind an age-old veil of mystery. Yet thousands of my countrymen still resent the Western idea of feminine equality. Long before Occidental culture was born, women's place had been assigned to her in India. Only gradually are those whose reverence the old ways, accepting the strange new revelations that a woman may aspire to more. Come in, my friend. Rest a while in my house before you travel on. Thank you. I should like you to meet my wife. I do. Your wife? One does not even speak of his wife in the presence of other men. Oh, I do, sir. I'm proud of her. She's a graduate of the university, you know. The university? Oh, she came out of Prada years ago.  I am content, sir, to be the keeper of his house, to bring up his children. I think I'm a better mother, a better helpmate for my husband, because my country has given me freedom. Women's struggle for freedom from the tyranny of the past, hard as it was in India and Japan, was dwarfed by its counterpart in China. Chinese women pioneered in the fight for women's rights. This great sprawling country, seat of ancient wisdom and wily masculine ways, became a huge battleground, where women's wit met masculine force and cunning at one. Last March 9th, at a rally of 7,000 women in Chongqing. The National Women's Day is a good time for us to look back upon our long struggle for equality of the sexes. In China, a woman has always been recognized for her value as a force in local and national affairs, but only as an advisor, operating anonymously behind the scenes. Today, she is man's equal. The speaker these women are applauding is Madam Chiang Kai-shek, considered by close observers of Chinese affairs, second only to her husband, the generalissimo as the most important personage in China. The women of China have won their presence high place in the nation, largely as a result of two wars. The first was the revolution which ended in 1911. It overthrew the monarchy and brought the dawn of a new China. The first Chinese parliament met in Canton. The people are happy today, celebrating the birth of the republic. Yes, quite happy. What's this? Ah, a petition signed by a committee from the Chinese Women's Society of the Revolution. What do they want? Ah, let me see. They say they fought beside the men and helped establish the republic. They want equal suffrage. Suffragettes. What foolishness. Why, women don't even vote in the old established democracies, such as the United States and Britain. We can ignore this. Before we do that on a colleague, pause to consider. Those silk is softer than the sword. It is also stronger. Let us apply that maxim. Tell them their petition is receiving our most careful attention and shelved it. No, I don't think that... Wait. What's that noise? The speed is fuller than they're marching on the building. Lock the doors. Don't let them in here. That was the beginning of the suffragette movement in China. It failed to win in the right to vote, but it won its leaders a large following. Later, two prominent women leaders in the Kuomintang, Tang Chongying and Chang Han Yin, devised a more guarded approach to the citadel of masculine supremacy. They succeeded in getting a bill introduced into parliament. This bill would make women equal under the law. Perhaps it isn't such a bad measure. Women deserve the protection of the law. No, no. This bill is just another trick of the suffragettes. They are like locusts.  I vote no. In China, the battle dragged on. Fourth, matching guile. A law giving women the vote found its way to the statute books, but in many provinces, the right was denied. Again, in 1921, the suffragettes tried direct action. A band of 700 stormed the provisional assembly in Canton. Scenes of violence were precipitated and there were a number of casualties. Yes, yes, you are hurt. Let me help you. The cut on the head is not so bad. It is a bitter taste in my mouth. I know, and we failed. We were not strong enough. We failed because we used the wrong tactics. Yes, I can see that now. Then what should we do? Wait, till the men need our help, till we can show what the women of China will do for their country. That is good advice. We should take advantage of every opportunity to prove our... Their first opportunity came after World War I, when the women joined the student movement in furious protest against that part of the Versailles Treaty which they believed betrayed China's cause. Here in Shandong, a great injustice is being perpetrated. It is necessary to act quickly. What is she mouthing about? Women's rights again? Come on, we shall hear what she's saying. We cannot give our consent to this cause of the treaty. It would turn over all the German-Lease Territories in this province to China's potential enemy, Japan. We beg all patriotic citizens to join us, men and women together, demonstrate against this injustice to our country. That woman is right. We cannot permit such an injustice. What you say is true. This time the women have chosen the right path. Largely as a result of these demonstrations, the loss of territory was averted. Meanwhile, the women of China strengthened their cause. Their scene of action varied. In Hangkou, where corruption had made justice a joke, the women's union actually took over the court. Next case. I want the ball. My husband awokes me like an ox. I work too. I need her help on the farm. When you plow, you'll feel who holds the plow. Why? I do, of course. I'm the man. And who draws it? Why, the ox? And I. I am honest. All right, beside ox. Before you separate, go home and try this. Tomorrow, you yoke your wife to the ox. Good. The next day, she drives you with the ox. What? A man driven by his wife? The neighbors would laugh me off my farm. That is the court's decision.  Well, as you will. I'll have to try it. I can't afford to get behind with my plowing. But it was not until the Great War engulfed the East that Chinese women had the opportunity to demonstrate their right to equal participation with men in the affairs of their country. They were not fighting now for women's rights, but for the preservation of China. Madam Chiang Kai-shek gathered the leaders of all classes and parties into one group. The Women's Advisory Council. And on the fighting front... We'll have to silence those mortars. But how can we? We have no artillery. We'll have to take them without artillery. Come on. Ow! We can't go any farther. They've got us pinned down. Machine guns, too. They'll wipe us out. We're on the reverse of the slope. If we only had enough men to send a party around that hill and take them on the flank. We haven't. Listen. What's that? An attack on the Japanese position. Look. Coming there on our flank. Another band of gargoyles. These are heavenly ones they've thanked. They've taken the hill. Come, let us join them. Here comes their leader. I'll greet him. Comrades, we wish to thank you. You saved our lives. You are very welcome. Someday, you and your men may do as much for us. Why?  So? Sooner or later, I am not the first woman you ever saw. No, but a woman captain of a gorilla band. Look, she is not the only one. See, they are all women. Yes, comrades. We are all women. The women of New China. My grandmother used to say one woman is worth two men. Because a woman is the mother of the race. But if she could see this. Your grandmother have done what we did today? She? Why, she couldn't even walk. Her feet had been bound when she was a little girl to make her a dainty. The women of Santa have come a long way since the time of your grandmother, Comrade. A long, hard uphill journey. But a lot can be for us. Our feet are not bound. We can march on, side by side, with you on equal footing at last. We are with you. Every mile of your journey. We can never forget what the women did for our country in this war. You shall have full rights with us in peace. Under the leadership of Madame Zhong Kai-shek, this prophecy was fulfilled. The Chinese woman of today has exchanged her security and seclusion for insecurity and freedom. And the adaptability which in olden times was required of her as a wife is enabling her to fit into her new role with equal efficiency and grace. Woman has done her part. But still, after eight years of devastating war, a storm cloud hovers over China. Apparently the two factions which successfully fought Japan have been unable to get together on a basis of national unity. Yet, during the war, both factions were united in Women's Advisory Council. We worked together then. Even when there was no such common meeting ground between the men. Yes, Mena Stubborn. It may be that only the women can perform this great task. The bringing of domestic peace and unity to China. There is a still greater task. The greatest task of all. Perhaps it will be the women who eventually will bring peace and unity to the entire Orient. And may I say the word. In Japan, other women will never colourize a return for militarism. The women of India do not wish ever to see their sons and brothers die in another war. Nor do the women of the Philippines who fought and died beside their sons and brothers. Nor do the women of China who today are toiling to restore the devastation caused by misguided men. The likes of masculine supremacy have been breached throughout the Orient. More recently, sudden events have swept women into power in a national crisis. The new voice in the East, a voice that speaks in supple but penetrating tones will be heard throughout the world.

Thank you. I really enjoyed this session. Brian Buchanan is my name. I just want to ask Ross a question about Ukraine and ownership of farms. Is it mainly corporate? Is there any family farms? Where does most of their foreign investment come from? And do they have any issues like Australia does with foreign investment? So Ukraine is very different to Australia in that, with its political change, it's moved from a communist type regime into a more democratic regime. But the overhang of the communist regime is that there are millions of land owners in Ukraine, so that most people have been given land. So most people own anywhere from two to ten hectares. There are thousands of people who do farm the land that they own, but increasingly most of them lease that land, so it becomes a supplementary form of income for them. There are companies that aggregate all those leases and make them available to other Ukrainian businesses or overseas investors. What's emerged in Ukraine are some very large farms known as agroholdings. So these are farms typically larger than 20,000 hectares, up to hundreds of thousands of hectares, employing modern crop technologies, often being vertically integrated. So most profitable businesses are actually not the agroholdings, but they are businesses that are in between 10,000 to 30,000 hectares. Most of the businesses run many crops. Often a major difference between Ukrainian farms and our farms are that some people who lease their land lease it on a condition that the farm business employ them. So you may have an equivalent size Australian farm that may have two permanent employees, the same farm in Ukraine would have 100 permanent employees. And that's possible to run that business because labour is so cheap and you have a lot of sideline enterprises, daring, horticulture, vegetable growing. But we can talk about that more later. Any other questions? Yes. Could I follow up, Ross? I know you want to delay your talk about both Russia and Kazakhstan, but you could give us a foreshadowing of what you expect to learn from those two studies as to the relative importance of those three and their aggregate importance for Australia. Yes. So in summary, Russia is really important because it produces already 60 million tons versus Ukraine only producing about 20 million tons. This is a wheat I'm talking about. So Russia has huge potential. In all those countries, corruption is a major issue. The quality of infrastructure is a major issue. Kazakhstan is very oil rich, unlike Ukraine. So there are a number of structural issues facing Kazakhstan and Russia. I think the future for Kazakhstan and for Australia, an issue may be if Kazakhstan moves into sheep production, which is perhaps just as much a threat as it moving into grain production. Thank you. Any other questions? We're sort of jammed between the interest in the speakers and lunch. We're running out of time. Any other questions? Well, thank you very much for your attendance. Would you please thank our speakers?


It's structural, it's rigid in terms of its strength, and it's downsized. We're making some more portable aircraft ladders. We're cutting some tubes up, welding some frames up, and kind of testing it out for use of portability. We took that concept for Shaw Air Force Base and the Thunderbird Ladder and kind of meshed them together. Right now the aircraft ladders that they're using takes up more space on the aircraft. These, you can just put them in a travel pod on the F-16, so it'll fly off with the jet instead of having to build up a pallet, taking it off on a C-130 or things like that. In terms of cost of saving money, we're saving the Air Force around $300,000 per 12 ladders that we're making. If this is successful and we get it up and running for a Missile Air Base, you know, and pushing out this concept to other F-16 bases, it's a sense of pride, a sense of achievement to try to make something at this big of impact.


Charles Pena of Fox Business News reacted to Bernie Sanders Q4 fundraising numbers and specifically he reacted to who is donating to Bernie Sanders the most and His reaction was hilarious. I think so he talked about this on his program on Fox Business But he also tweeted about this initially saying say what Bernie Sanders 34.5 million fourth quarter fundraising is impressive But worrisome top occupation teachers American teachers embracing socialism. So what are they teaching our children? I Love this tweet so much. I don't know math reading history. He's missing the mark here He doesn't understand why teachers are supporting Bernie Sanders because they are working Americans But I'm gonna play the clip and then we'll break it down as to why so many working Americans are Donating to Bernie Sanders in large numbers even if they don't have as much money as elites. Take a look Wow Bernie Sanders raising 34 and a half million dollars in a final quarter of the year The haul from nearly two million donors far exceeds the like of Pete Buttigieg But that's he had a great quarter himself very impressive. So where's Sanders money? Where's it coming from? Well, the most common employers were folks who worked in Amazon Starbucks Walmart Target the US Postal Service, but here's a little nugget that really got me worried the most common occupation Teachers, I mean teachers are backing the socialist candidate. I mean when you think about that you have to ask yourself What are they teaching our kids? I want to bring in Democratic strategist Kevin Shavos along with Trump 20 senior legal advisor Jenna Ellis Jenna, I you know when I saw that I'm like teachers. They're backing the socialists. What country is this? I'm confused Yeah, well, you know Charles I don't think anyone regardless of any profession should be backing socialism whatsoever And so I think that's a problem regardless of what profession we're talking about But I think what's most interesting about this and it probably speaks a lot more to the influence of the union bosses Overteachers more than anything else and so I don't think that when you look at you know the average teacher in America and What they are for and what they're promoting I think it speaks a lot more to the union influence and you know Bernie has gotten some of those endorsements But if you look at unions otherwise President Trump certainly has a lot more of the backing of other types of unions and I think that we're gonna see that for the individual Average American regardless of profession you see so much in those small campaign dollars that are going to president Well, let's talk about Trump in a moment. Jenna be and first of all folks. I do have breaking news It's official now. Biden's fourth-quarter numbers around he raised 22.7 million slightly better than he had in the third quarter Kevin But here's the thing you consider Bernie's numbers you consider Mayor Pete Almost 25 million you consider over over 12 million for Andrew Yang and I'm looking at these numbers And I'm sending myself this the Democrat establishment is losing their grip. It feels like grassroots your party They don't want to these manufactured, you know candidates that the establishment sort of rubber stamps There's obviously an appetite for change and look Bernie Sanders has been a fundraising dynamo even in 2016 he had this sort of reputation and Raised more money from small individual donors than anyone had before now. He's broken that record So it's more the same for him and it is very impressive, but I would say about Joe Biden I mean his numbers are pretty encouraging for him to come in as you sit head at 22 million almost 23 And he's starting to coalesce top Democratic fundraisers around his campaign Those who supported Biden and Hillary let's not forget that Hillary in 2016 Outraised the Trump campaign and the RNC right and I think we'll see Joe Biden begin to get that support So these numbers are good for him and I would say the biggest loser is Elizabeth Warren who? I agree, but let me ask you though You take take mayor Pete Bernie and Andrew Yang that you know over 50 million dollars If there's a message being sent to your party though, that's the question I'm saying is anyone paying attention to it or will they continue to borrow your work to coalesce around around Biden I'll take this one. They will never coalesce around Bernie Sanders They may one day be grudgingly acquiesce if he does become the nominee But not all of them and not without a huge fight So getting to the substance of that clip there wasn't much there But I found it interesting because they were trying to speculate about why Bernie Sanders Gets all of the support from working people and namely teachers. It's not that complicated It's really simple, but yet the Trump legal advisor, which I wouldn't want to be a legal advisor for Donald Trump at this point but nonetheless she Suggested that maybe you know teachers only support Bernie Sanders because unions and they're influencing him to Influencing them to support Bernie Sanders No, you're over analyzing this Occam's razor ladies and gentlemen It's a simple explanation the reason why Teachers support Bernie Sanders is not because they have some nefarious agenda to implement socialism in classrooms I mean, that's stupid if they wanted to do that. They could already Technically do that right but the reason why teachers love Bernie Sanders is because he is looking out for them Politics is about self-interest. We vote based on who we believe will improve our lives It's why most rich people are economically conservative and most working-class people broadly speaking support social democracy policies like Medicare for all Tuition-free public colleges and universities, right? We all at the end of the day We may care about everyone but we look out for ourselves teachers are supporting Bernie because he understands teachers are underpaid and Teachers are being taken advantage of and if we truly want to create a thriving economy Then we should probably pay the people who are training the next generation better, right? Now on top of that It's not just teachers the reason why Walmart workers and Starbucks employees support Bernie Sanders is very simple They're struggling Bernie is the only individual who understands the economic situation that they are in Because Bernie Sanders talks to people. He doesn't spend time taking selfies with people. He actually engages with people They share their concerns with him They share the issues that they're dealing with and then he responds accordingly with policy solutions Now you don't have to take my word for it. You can watch all of his town halls They're all broadcasted on his YouTube channel and people will come to him with issues that they can't afford insulin They lost their job. They're pregnant and they can't afford, you know, the medical bills This is what Bernie Sanders does.   I mean look when I graduated college and I was going through grad school I had to work at Walmart temporarily because that was the only way that I can make ends meet and I had food stamps while I was working at Walmart and You know, you have this sense that you really are being exploited You can never take a moment to just breathe you finished a finish a project and you're talking with one of your co-workers Then you get yelled at by a manager because you know, how dare you stop for a moment? They just overwork you you just feel underappreciated and Bernie Sanders unlike all the other elitist politicians running Acknowledges the inherent worth in all of us as human beings We're not just cogs in the machine of capitalism or Walmart or Starbucks like we are each Individual human beings with the men's value and worth Therefore we should be accommodated for the work that we do and treated like human beings We should be given a living wage $15 an hour plus. We should be given health care. That's free at the point of service So we don't have to worry about dying if we can't afford co-pays We don't have insurance. We should be able to go to school and not worry about debt, right? I have anxiety when I think about all of the college debt that I've accumulated I don't know that I will ever be able to pay it off unless it's canceled like Bernie Sanders Then I'm gonna live it this forever a lot of us kind of feel this way It's really demoralizing and it produces a lot of anxiety. So I mean It's just so funny to me and it demonstrates how out of touch They are on Fox News that they have to speculate why teachers and Starbucks employees and Walmart workers would support Bernie Sanders It's obvious because he cares about them. How do you not see that? How do you not see why the only candidate in the race who has consistently had a record of Fighting to improve the lives of working Americans is popular I mean, it's obvious why his message resonates with the normal Americans Because he cares about them and not just in some Politician patronizing way. He's listened to their concerns and he wants to improve their lives He's just genuinely a good person. He's not perfect on policy I don't agree with him on absolutely everything. He's not a saint, but he's trying. He's listening and responding with policy Nobody else is doing that. Nobody else is consistently releasing policies like this You have Elizabeth Warren putting out policies, but none of them go as far as Bernie Sanders So it's not a surprise that teachers and working Americans are donating to Bernie Sanders in large numbers That's obvious. It's because they want someone who's finally going to represent them and Bernie Sanders Obviously is the only person who is going to do that. That's as simple as it is I mean, you don't have to over complicate it and try to you know Dissect what these people might be thinking look into the psychology of teachers. I mean, it's really simple they support him because he cares about them period and of story and Like to think that Charles Payne is probably making like six or seven figures to do political analysis where he can't even Understand why teachers would support Bernie Sanders embarrassing


Okay, we're back here live in San Francisco for the Red Hat Summit. This is theCUBE SiliconANGLE's flagship program. We go out to the events, extract the signal from the noise. I'm John Furrier, the founder of SiliconANGLE. I'm joined with Stu Miniman, E-Bahn.org. And our next guest is Red Hesh, Paula Krishnan, general manager, virtualization of an open stack of Red Hat. Welcome to theCUBE. Thank you. Congratulations, obviously, Dell is announcing some stuff. So tell us what your thoughts are of this show. So, you know, first of all, this is a day that we look for, or these days are the ones that we look for the most as Red Hat employees, because, you know, top customers across the globe come here. We get to share not just the finished products, but also the roadmap of where we are taking this. And so if you fundamentally believe in this community-powered innovation model, what better opportunity than to test the ideas, get feedback, and start delivering, you know, get back to our, you know, barn, if you will, and then start building things that customers ask for. So it's an all in all, it's a great opportunity to interact with customers and partners. Before we get into some of the open stack conversations, I want to just get your personal perspective. We were talking before we came on that the revolution of the computer industry, even going back to the 30th anniversary of the Mac where I was attending with Apple back in Cupertino, and we talked with IBM earlier, 50th anniversary of the mainframe, open source came on the scene with Linux big time. That operating system kind of decoupled from the hardware. Hey, interesting concept. Now today, that decoupling is going step further. How do you feel? What's your take on this? And how significant, and you live and breathe it every day with a lot of passion at Red Hat. Explain to the folks on how important this is. Why is this such a big deal? Yeah, so let me come at it from a slightly different perspective. You know, sometimes I wake up and pinch myself and really believe that, hey, it's real, right? Because 10 years ago, right, I have a history of having worked in a proprietary organization for a fairly large number of years. At that point in time, this open source was this unknown thing, unknown amount of risks, et cetera, et cetera. Now look at kind of the public cloud as a starting point. You're not going into open stack yet. Nine out of 10 clouds out there are built on open source technology. So it's not a, hey, can open source be there, but it's a, hey, what are we using it for? That's one thing. The second thing is any leading edge innovation that you talk about, be it big data, et cetera, et cetera, it's all in open world, right? It's almost like the planets have come in alignment at the perfect time, and I consider myself personally lucky, right? Really, I mean, I'm personally lucky to be at this juncture when the customers want to reinvent themselves, the industry is reinventing itself, and we have a very catalytic role to play, so. Padma Warrior said on stage yesterday, every company is now a technology company. They have to be, it's not just one little corner of the organization, it's everything. And this is changing the game. And the folks that have Red Hat, you guys have a lot of enterprise customers. That used Red Hat on a commercial basis and supported, et cetera, et cetera, and it's your business models doing so well. But now they want to extend that capability to the cloud, and they see Amazon out there. They put some stuff out there, do some shadow ID. Still, they complain about the lumpiness SLA, and that's all been talked about, well-documented. Amazon's trying to become more enterprise-grade. But OpenStack has been clearly the bridge for a lot of enterprises they want to cross for the flexibility. Where are you guys at OpenStack, and how baked out is it just standing up? Are people using it? Can you talk specifically about some successes around OpenStack and where you guys are at? Sure. I would parse your question into multiple parts if you don't mind. Just to frame the conversation, it's not almost as if customers are saying, hey, look, we want to get to OpenStack. Yes, there are some that say that too. We love them to death for that. The reality is customers are saying, look, I want to do two things in my infrastructure. Reduce the cost, bring in the agility, right? And at the same time, you make sure that the legacy infrastructure that is in there continues to deliver and SLA, et cetera. So our gambit in this is actually not just OpenStack, but also the other peace spots that are needed to make the transition from where they are to where they want to get to as soon as possible. It starts with KVM, it starts with Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization, starts with CloudForms as a technology to be able to manage a vSphere environment as well as a rev environment, and then enter OpenStack into the picture. You bring in a new breed of applications, new kind of infrastructure where you potentially are reviring and reinventing, you know, computer storage and network layers all over again, setting yourself up for the future, right? Now in that context, the beauty of all of that is you've finally been, you know, liberated from the tragedy of the past, which is you got shackled by one proprietary vendor or other, right? It's truly, truly open, right? So that's the context we are operating in. Now you had a question about, hey, where are we seeing fraction, et cetera, right? So if you look at the, you know, last year and change, in July is when we geared the product. So we announced two products in July last year at our summit, you know, we're doing it a little earlier this year. First is a combination of rel and OpenStack, engineered together so that the peace spots needed for you to have an environment that is predictable can come into an enterprise. The second one is a product called Red Hat Cloud Infrastructure. Now the beauty of Red Hat Cloud Infrastructure is it's got traditional virtualization, it's got rel OpenStack platform, and it's got a common management across both. And the beauty of that is it can also manage public cloud resources as well as the sphere resources if you will, right? So finally we have an offering which is truly open that can help bridge what you have and what you can get to. And what we're seeing from customers is that if you look across the globe, we're engaged deeply with, you know, three digit number of customers, the cash registers I'm happy to say has already started ringing if you will. We're seeing traction in financial vertical which is sort of, you know, the home base fuel of Red Hat in general, telco vertical, fueled further by the whole NFV focus if you will, and then research and education. And you know, I'm hoping, you know, I can share some of the customer names as well. So if you look at NCI, which is the National Computing Institute in Australia, this is a research body which provides the infrastructure for weather research in Australia, for example. So, you know, they started with a couple of hundred nodes in terms of OpenStack, the eventual footprint is going to be 7,000 nodes or something like that. Or Midokura, which is an NFV provider, you know, they are private cloud, and as well as how they develop software and test and repro solutions is based on OpenStack. You know, talk about every company becoming a technology company and it's being embedded into the way you do business, that's a shining example as well. Or you know, we have a few ones like Nanyang Technical University in Singapore, or University of Portugal, etcetera, all doing fundamentally one thing which is, hey look, we have seen the pain points of the old infrastructure. We see the possibility of OpenStack. Now let's pick the use cases that make the most sense for us to bring OpenStack into and then think about a journey thereof. So it's a great place to be in from a traction and adoption perspective. And the cash register is your business model of, that's been tried and truised as a subscription. Same, no changes on the business model in terms of these deployments. Yeah, it's not just the business model which is the same, right? Look, an average Red Hat customer has trust on Red Hat for a couple of things. One is that the open innovation has been hardened enough so that they can deploy it in their production environment and actually, you know, not get fired and in fact get a promotion hopefully, right? So that's the first level of trust they have. Second is a truly wide partner ecosystem. You know, I just saw Sam talk a little bit earlier with you, right? Dell is a shining example of, you know, when Linux was trying to become rally, if you will, Michael Dell himself, you know, watered with his wallet to partner with Red Hat. I mean, that's the history and we kind of saw history repeating itself in December at Dell World when, you know, Dell and Michael Dell himself said, hey, look, we are picking Red Hat for open stack, right? So from a partner ecosystem perspective. And now he's a private company, he's got a lot more flexibility as not to chase the whole Wall Street mentality. He can do some innovative things. Absolutely, there are not too many companies claiming to be the world's largest, you know, start-ups, if you will, right? He can be creative again. Yeah. So what is some of the creativity you're seeing from folks like Dell who see the future and that's classic early adopters, people who know what they're doing. Michael certainly does. What kind of creativity are you seeing with Rell and OpenStack? Yeah, it fundamentally comes down to the jointly aligned mission and vision we have together, which is we as industrial leaders have the opportunity and it behooves us to make it enterprise-ready as possible. So now, let's parse what is enterprise-ready really mean. First is you need to have a product experience where you can install, configure, manage entire life cycle of it. So that's very, very important. Second is that you need to be able to piece it together with what you have as well as the newer stuff around SDN and other, you know, beautiful three-letter acronyms which are fueling further innovation in there. So if you look at both the counts, you know, we are so aligned that, you know, we're working so fast. I mean, it was December that we announced. Today I'm happy to say that we have generally available the joint solutions with, you know, Dell, right? That's the pace at which we are working together. You know, that's a lot of creativity, a lot of guts and a lot of purposefulness in terms of what we want to do that I'm seeing in Dell. You know, of course, we all work with Dell in one way or other in our history. It's reinvigorating to be engaging with Dell today. And you work for a priority advantage so you know the whole rip and replace argument. So here what's interesting is it's a very accurate and by the way, we love the vision. You got to deal with the legacy. And you got to bring in the new shiny, new, cool enabling tools that will help you go faster, but yet not on a rip and replace. It's on a refresh basis. Is that what you're saying? Yeah, exactly. And you know, so now let's, you know, talk one level down in terms of altitude of a technology implementation, right? So let's say you got vSphere implementation already. You got the traditional applications that are virtualized running on that. You realize the power of the new set of applications you can, you know, run on opens tag. But the reality is, is there a way I can technically, you know, know, can over talk to vSphere so that the control plane is still at open stack level so that I'm not having to go to separate schools because I have cloud in, right? So that opportunity has been already, you know, we've already delivered on that. You know, we worked with VMware. Of course, you know, they are the competitor as well. But as industry leaders, we work with them to make sure that we have a joint solution in place. So it all finally comes down to one thing we fundamentally wake up and believe in, which is start with the customer in mind, right? If you do that, you ain't going to go wrong, right? So that's basically it.  One of the big drivers I've heard in the marketplace is that open stack should drive rev adoption also. Other than the push to open stack, can you tell me what other kind of real driving forces have been to adopt, you know, kind of KVM, your version of that besides just I want to get off of, you know, the VTACs, if you will. Right, right, right.  Now, let's look at a snapshot of where rev as a product itself is. You know, first of all, the great starting point is that KVM is the best performing hypervisor on the planet period, right? So, look at spec word numbers, blow them off the chart. Now, rev as a product has been in market for now five plus years, and it's reached a level of maturity that, you know, month to month call volumes are dropping 10%, whereas the subscriptions are going northward. Now, you had a question about, hey, what is driving the growth of rev? It finally comes down to two things. One is that the attachment in rev and rel, right, because veering this business model where every year you go back to the customer to renew the, you know, rel subscriptions that they have. And given the VTACs, they realize that for starting with Linux workloads, it makes a ton of sense to use rev, right, so British Airways comes as an example to my mind. Or CERN, for example, as a customer using that.  The second thing is from an architecture perspective, and this is where the cloud direction conversation we were having is pertinent, what we've done in the last release of rev and then ensuing releases will continue to build on that is, rev becomes a consumer of some of the networking and storage implementations that you do on open style. So which means that if an organization is investing in an open stack, rev gets a drag along with that because open stack is not architected for traditional workloads where, you know, the blinking lights have to be on all the time. So you have enough of those applications that can run on the rev side of the equation. Either you take the sort of the front end web server part or even net new applications on the open stack side, but unless technically you're bringing these together, it becomes too silent. So that's what you've done to make sure that it's not just open stack, which is that raw bridge for getting into more ref footprint, but also the rel installed base. So we've seen tremendous success on both the fronts. So another way to say it is, you know, open stack is the perfect tailwind that we needed to make sure that rev takes off in terms of adoption. Okay, so you're trying to make it pretty seamless even customers to move from rel to rev and straight to open stack. Absolutely, absolutely. So, you know, having lots of debates at this show about kind of the maturity of open stack, if we look at it, it's kind of like a four year old startup with lots of different people putting pieces into it. When we think about technology adoption in general, whether it be Linux, even virtualization with VMware, it takes a long time to go from those early test dev deployments to production environments. Now that Havana's out and Ice House is coming out pretty soon, where are we? What use cases do you see customers doing?  Right, so, you know, a couple of things to a vector here. Yes, indeed, it does take some time and you know, you add to that enterprise lifecycle for evaluation and proving and then, you know, finally cutting the check, if you will. You know, that's just the physics of it. We are going through that. But the heartening thing is that, you know, every six months there is a release of open stack that's going on right now, driving the pace of innovation so fast.  You know, just to give you a couple of examples.  Guess what, in the June release that we're going to come out which will be based on Ice House, we're going to solve that, right? Another one is about, hey, can you have high availability of the open stack services so that, you know, because this becomes the heartbeat of the enterprise, I want to make sure that it's up and running. We're delivering on HA across all levels, infrastructure, messaging, as well as database, stairs in the next release, et cetera. So we're going to systematically addressing the technical roadblocks to adoption. So that's one thing which is heartening. On the back of that, your question about use cases, what the use cases range from, you know, it's a normal curve just like any, you know, technology adoption. On the extreme end, we have seen pure play open stack adoption, especially in telco, for example, right? It could be NFV, for example, Alcatel Lucent has picked a real open stack platform as the platform for their cloud band solution. So every Alcatel Lucent customer by default is running open stack, it is our open stack and we're excited about that. So that's more a pure play, open stack only, the usages around network function, virtualization, et cetera. In the same bucket of sort of open stack only, we also see some of the research institutions that I shared the names, right? So where it's not about, hey, I have a legacy application or what have you, it's more about I'm creating new net new, either a business model and or new, you know, app experience, if you will, and open stack becomes a perfect candidate for that. If you kind of come towards the middle of the normal curve, that's where you see the customers either wanting to mix and match vSphere with open stack or rev and open stack and cloud forms, et cetera. So there's a lot of mix and match that's happening. And so all signs indicate that, you know, especially given that the number of customers in the middle of the pack are going beyond just the initial picking of the ties by the TTO to, hey, can you roll into production? This is going to just take off. And if you look at the next 12 to 18 month timeframe will be foundational and then, you know, it would be taking off, that's going to see you. So question I have for you is about the administrator. So, you know, one of the things I think VMware's done a really good job is they really built a new role. There's the virtualization administrator and VMware's trying to have them be the kind of the center of the universe. If you look at what they're doing with storage with vSan, with the NSX on the networking side they're trying to give them new tools to do this. You know, the Linux admin, you know, has a lot of great tools. And I've seen that extending into a lot of environments. Cumulus networks is creating, you know, Linux for networking and, you know, Linux is very kind of extensible and programmable from its very nature. So as you go from, you know, Linux to virtualization to cloud, can the Linux admin just do it all the way they have it or the new tools that, you know, you're building in to help them and, you know, help pull them along that spectrum. So it's sort of yes and yes, if you will, right? So, you know, the first part about, it's our remit, right? To make sure that the RELL administrators can graduate to the cloud with us, right? So that means even tactically down to training and certification, et cetera, we've got courses which take into mind, because we understand the persona what their needs are, so we've got that going. Now, there's also additional tooling and, you know, tool chain that needs to be made available because the context changes a little bit. Earlier it was just about compute. Now you got compute storage and networking to think about.  So if you have an offering called Satellite which is for managing bare metal or virtualized RELL, now we are extending that into OpenStack too so that you have a similar tool chain that you can use for managing the life cycle of OpenStack as well. So we're connecting all the obvious dots in terms of their starting point there being our, you know, we love to death RELL administrators, if you will. Their tool chain, their learning roadmap, everything we're thinking through to make sure that they can graduate and being able to, you know, be at the center of the universe, which is the open universe as against the closed universe of people. So we're super excited about what's going on with you guys, especially with this container thing. So that came up earlier. Virtualization has changed the game, certainly at the infrastructure level, but as the abstraction line moves up, DevOps guys don't have to worry about virtualization. It just becomes this cool thing that happens under the covers or under the hood that works for them. Containers is the new enablement. So we'll get your take on that in context, OpenStack, because a lot of developers we talk to kind of piss and moan sometimes and say, hey, you know what, all this mud slinging around, OpenShift versus Cloud Foundry, it's just ridiculous. Just we'll OpenStack, just fix that. So I want to ask you, where are we on this whole OpenStack conversation? Because there is a battleground in pass that is going on. It seems to be a lot of fun going around. You guys are shipping product. You've got vendors stepping up and saying, hey, like Dell and others saying, it's shipping. What was needed to happen at OpenStack? What is going to move that conversation to a much more productive place? Right, so let's agree on the fundamentals here, which is that the convergence of IA's and pass is a given, right? So you look at Azure, you look at Amazon, look at Google, so you kind of take the math and apply it on on-prem, it's going to happen. So it's a given. Now that's a question of, hey, what's the best starting place? And that's a function of, which is your order of priority? Do you want pass and IA's today, or are you sequencing it in some fashion? Pass, first, or IA's first? I don't have any allegiance one way or other, right? Love them all. But so if you view from that perspective, then we have a great starting point with OpenStack from IA's perspective. We have OpenShift, which is an offering that's available today, both on-prem and off-prem that you could start. And the beauty of OpenNAS and the fact that if you got definitely a seat in the cockpit, if you will, on both, is that you're working to make sure that they can converge together as well, right? So the short answer is, there's a place for all of these to exist. And even the ultimate consumption model is not just going to be passed on IA's, because there's going to be enough, I can take it from, read my lips, definitely enough IA's only scenario that's going to be there. So we see a place for both. And you kind of touched upon Docker earlier and I can kind of touch on that aspect as well. Does Docker and containers connect to dots? So you're basically saying, hey, get the infrastructure service, that's solid, whatever version of that, pass, pick your approach. Does the containers connect to dots on that feature? Container can help connect the dots too. But the key is to realize that the journey from an infrastructure perspective that we've had has three stages in my head. First stage was, how do you get to an application ready infrastructure, which was the REL value proposition? You have ISV certified, the Apple run. So application ready infrastructure. Enter OpenStack. We have application aware infrastructure. You got things like heat where you can define an app and say, hey, the infrastructure knows, hey, I know the animal that's going to run on top of me. Sorry about the poor user language here, but you get the idea, right? You can definitely characterize it and make sure that it behaves elegantly. The next is application optimized infrastructure, where you're running enough of the operating system on top of a virtualized infrastructure so that the infrastructure's absolutely optimized. There's no silver bullet in all this. It's really about functionality. Exactly. I mean, you need all three depending on the use cases, right? So it's all about open and flexible in terms of choices. So I view personally container and Docker specifically as a shot in the arm, which will further the move away from the taxes that your colleague was referring to or the problem with having making proprietary choices and bringing application portability. That's been the holy grail you're after, right? Well, the portability is fantastic, but also speeds the delivery process on the app side too. So if I develop, I like containers. I add to that efficiency and the cost saving associated with that. And there's more, you know what I'm saying? So it's an amazing thing. I could talk about this forever. We're getting the hook, but I want to give you the final word. I really want to get this out there. There's been a lot of people saying, oh, OpenShift has got no traction. Clarify to the audience, the traction around OpenShift relative to OpenStack. Right, so I think my colleague, Shesh Badani, put out a blog a couple of days ago or like two weeks ago, which lists out a few things, which is the fact that, hey look, the number of apps that are there, the number of partners that we're working with, including Dell, I'm sure Sam would have touched upon that or Cisco for that matter, is just increasing day by day, right? So, you know, there's no stopping that train. And the beautiful thing is that the combination of OpenShift and OpenStack will make it into an express train if you will. So that's the bet we're taking. We're getting the hook. Thank you so much for spending your time here. I know you're super busy. You know, it's like a track and field meet here for you guys. It's the big event, 10 years, congratulations. Again, virtualization changed the world. You got containers, you got the cloud, got OpenStack. This is theCUBE, we're documenting it all. Here live in San Francisco, we'll be right back with our next guest after this short break. Thank you.


All right, so first up, a quick update on what's happening on the ground in Israel, and then we'll go into some details on a few of the different aspects of the war. Israel, as we talked about yesterday, is basically surrounded Gaza City, which is where most of the Palestinians in the northern Gaza Strip live. They've come in from the north, they've come in from the south, they've split, basically disconnected the north part of Gaza from the south part of Gaza, and they are slowly starting to enter Gaza City and in the various towns and camps surrounding Gaza City. The goal is to go in and dismantle and destroy the tunnel infrastructure that Hamas has built. They're killed as many Hamas members as possible and destroy any ammunition they have and hopefully find some hostages and free them if that is at all possible. My understanding is that they are going to try to avoid going into the tunnels themselves. Going into tunnels could be suicidal, my guess is they might send special forces in there to try to get intelligence and to try to release hostages, but generally I think the goal is going to be to either smoke the Hamas out, that is fill the tunnels with smoke and force them out, or to basically destroy the tunnels to have them, cause them to cave in, to block the exits and to create a situation where people, you know, the Hamas are trapped inside, die inside, or are forced out and therefore into the open and are killed outside. The challenge of course is that at least in Gaza City and the south part of Gaza City, so close to where the Israeli troops are already there, there are two hospitals. And the challenge is that the Hamas has built much of their infrastructure, their command posts underneath these hospitals. So a lot of the tunnels, the hubs underneath these hospitals, Israel has constantly asked for these hospitals to be evacuated. The Palestinians refused, the hospitals are still functioning, but Israel cannot destroy the tunnels underneath them, it cannot destroy the facilities underneath them without destroying the hospitals above or without risking munitions exploding underneath the hospital and imploding the whole hospital and then Israel gets to blame. So Israel has a real quandary in terms of how to do it, how to do it. And for now what it looks like they're doing is the bombing everything around the hospital, they're basically destroying the buildings surrounding the hospital, partially I think to give them a warning, to tell them what's going to happen to them unless they evacuate. So that's going on right now, you've got massive shelling of the buildings and infrastructure around the two hospitals, but the flattening of those buildings will also potentially give Israel access to the tunnels without actually going through the hospital, but it's still true that anyone of those tunnels could implode and explode and take down a hospital with it. And that's the purpose, that's how Hamas fights. It fights by jeopardizing and sacrificing its own people by putting its own people in the line of fire, by creating a circumstance where for Israel to win it must kill many civilians. That is the Hamas strategy. The Hamas strategy is not to win, the Hamas strategy is to force the hand of the Americans and the Europeans to start reining in Israel, to force Israel to have a ceasefire, to force Israel to retreat. Hamas can't kick Israel out of Gaza, but America could put the squeeze on Israel and force them out of Gaza, and that's what Hamas is counting on. And for that, Hamas needs as many civilians to die, as many hospitals to be blown up, as many good TikTok videos to be available to show how horrible life is in Gaza and how evil Israel is actually.


you have in mind something like a Bitcoin future for if money is broken, that's one of the potential fix is something more market based that incentivizes saving rather than debt. The other vision of the future is something of our money's future is something like CBDC, central bank digital currencies. You describe this as a surveillance and control mindset that is gripping much of our ruling class. Can you sketch out what that vision might look like and why it's something best avoided? So over the past century and a half and really more than that, most efficiencies we make with money come at the cost of centralization and more surveillance. So we make money faster and easier, but it gets coalesced into banks and then central banks and central bank digital currencies are kind of like the capstone of that where it's just fully surveilled, it's kind of fully locked in, it's programmable by the state. Privacy is basically just completely lost at that point. And so in that world, it kind of helps maintain the 160 different currency bubbles that countries have now. It makes it hard for people to kind of escape that system. Now, luckily in a world where Bitcoin and stablecoins exist, countries, assets can now pierce each other's borders, which are hard to stop. Stablecoins, the United States could stop easily, but the questions do they want to? And certainly the Argentinians or the Nigerians of the world can't do anything about the fact that stablecoins exist. Bitcoin can potentially disrupt even the biggest currencies in the long arc of time. And so we'll see how, if it's up to that challenge. But basically we have one or two directions. Either we can embrace some of the open source technology and allow more market-based competition. And it's not necessarily a choice. I think there's some degree of technological determinism in the sense that if this technology is robust enough, and desirable enough, it's very hard to overwhelm the market forces of people that would want these technologies. But if it's whatever reason that the technology is insufficient, or if it's kind of like killed in the cradle before it can really kind of fully mature or set back a long period of time, one way or another, then we enter a world of, you know, more centralized control than we've been accustomed to.  You can use narratives around the environment, things like that to control how people spend more on a regular basis, which is a somewhat dystopian future. And it's not hard to imagine that more places could be kind of like the direction that China goes in, which is to have a pretty significant top-down enforcement. I think that should be generally resisted. And that freedom of being able to use whatever money you want, basically freedom to protect your own savings, your own accumulated time and energy, should be rewarded. And I think it's useful for people to understand these technologies, either potentially to use them themselves, or to understand just the macro context, what the existence of these things means. So if things like Bitcoin and stablecoins can pierce financial borders in a way that hasn't been useful, hasn't been possible before, what does that mean for, you know, different countries and their ability to maintain currencies? What does it mean for global assets? I think these are questions that investors and just anyone kind of interested in the subject should be familiar with. But I mean, there's a movement against CBDCs, against central bank digital currencies, but I'm not sure that the average listener or American exactly understands what it is, how it's different than just dollars being digital. There's, you know, a programmable aspect to CBDCs. And that is the really dangerous privacy-violating part. Could you just give a couple examples of why, from your perspective, that would be an assault on liberty? So it used to be that transactions were naturally private, like handing over a banknote or gold coin or silver coin as a private act. But as things kind of coalesced onto bank balance sheets, and then there's like various laws that make those banks constantly give over the information to the government, we kind of, the natural assumption of what is normal has shifted kind of to be an anti-privacy stance. And cash is kind of the last vestige of privacy. And of course, it's fairly controlled. I mean, try to go to your bank and if you've got $100,000 in the account, just be like, yeah, I'd like to take that out. It's my money. You're going to get a lot of pushback trying to take out very large amounts of cash from the system because it's generally discouraged. And because they don't like that much private value going around, even in some countries buying above a little bit of gold gets you basically KYC, like you get identified for having done that. And so there's a lot of, and I think this is to the extent that they attack Bitcoin, I don't think it'll be about things like banning it. It'll be about things like banning the private usage of it or putting restrictions on self-custiding it and saying, oh, just hold it in the BlackRock ETF. Just fully put in these silos, don't hold it yourself. That's kind of the pushback I think that's going to happen. Hey, thanks for watching that clip from my conversation with Lynn Alden about her new book, Broken Money. You can watch another clip right here or the full conversation over here.

Shivkumar Ji. On stage, our respected leaders, dear workers, brothers and sisters, welcome you all here. I thank the people of Karnataka from my heart and from the Congress Party. You have supported the Congress Party completely. In the last five years, we know what difficulties you have faced. It has been written in the media that why the Congress Party won. There have been different analyses and different theories. The only reason for this victory is that the Congress Party was with the poor, with the weak, with the rich, with the rich, with the rich, with the rich. We had the truth and the poor. The people of Karnataka lost money, wealth, power, police, everything. And the people of Karnataka lost all their power. They lost their pride and their hatred. Like we said in the journey, the hatred was destroyed and the love was won. In the market of hatred, Karnataka has opened a store of millions of love. In the last five years, we had made five promises to you. The first promise was to give 2000 rupees to women every month. The second promise was to give 200 units of electricity for free. The third promise was to give 10 kilos of rice to every member of the family. The fourth promise was to give 3000 rupees to graduates every month and 1500 rupees to diplomats. I had told you that we do not make false promises. So we say, we will do it. In one or two hours, the first cabinet meeting of the new government of Karnataka will take place. In that cabinet meeting, these five promises will become law. We will do what we say. This government is the government of the people of Karnataka. And it will work for you. Namaskar! Jai Hind! Namaskara! Jai Hind!
