KJ5 IRQ. Alright. I've had some coffee and listening. It's a beautiful fall morning here in Texas. I'm not sure I want to read into the conversation today. You know, I'm always that opposite viewpoint. I will say this though. Those who depend on the government to feed them should expect the government to starve them. That sounds really mean, but governments have historically done that. It's a form of socialism. It really is. But that's just my viewpoint. Nothing official. No political involvement at all. Just an observation. Those who depend on... I'll even say it differently. Those who depend on anybody else to feed them, setting themselves up for starvation. There are those people who can't help themselves. The elderly, the widowed, the orphaned. And there are things set up to take care of those people. But I agree with... Gosh, I just forgot his name. The guy that was on the right before me. I'm sorry. Anyhow, because I know people who are going to snap. And I see what they buy. And I'll flat out tell you this. I make decent money, really decent money. And I don't eat as good as they do. Ever. Ever. Like, I watch them. Because you know, they got a card. They got a snap card. You can see when they use it. It's not a secret. And I've watched them. And they're buying big old T-bones and tomahawks and soda pop and shrimp. And I mean all this wonderful, off-the-line food. And I'm not saying they don't deserve to have some of that good food, too. I mean, everybody should experience good food from time to time. But my gosh, I am a working man who has worked for 35 years of my life. Well, 30 years of my life now. And I can't eat like that. And that bothers me personally. I don't think politics plays a part in that. I think personally we should have things built in to help those in need. But it should not be the federal government's responsibility to do so. That's unconstitutional. But again, that's just my personal opinions. We do need something to help these people, though. Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying take away the money and let them starve. That is not what I'm saying at all. But charity should fall on local first. Local first. Local communities should be the first line of charity. And that's what you don't see these days. Again, which is my opinions. All right. Well, I'm the last one on the list, so I'll send it back to KKY. So let's go, Kevin. Back to you, buddy. Yep. And 638, 639 now. So I'll be figuring out a way to wind us down gently. And I'll give you a take-home question. But just to comment on a few things earlier, though. And I don't remember who said it, but just the points at least anyways. Well, think of the acronym, right? Now, before I didn't know the acronym. So you know I looked this up, right? But it's something like supplemental nutritional assistance program. Okay, so think of that's what the meaning is, right? That's what the words are, right? Where are Kit Kats and Twixes and should I throw Hungry Man in it? I'm trying to say what do those have to do with nutrition, right? Like I would think nutrition, like your fruits and vegetables, right? And when I grocery shop and I'm not on any of those programs, I'd be kicked out of some of my work benefits if I were to do anything like, or join anything like that because I don't have to. But I buy tons of nutritional things. It's one way I survive. You got to have your fruits and vegetables. So it's already kind of figured in that equation. So where does Yo-Yo's and Ring-Dings and Hostesses and Mae West desserts and Joe Louis, where does that count in the play? Like I would assume even your big steaks and pork chops aren't vastly, hugely a part of it, right? Unless it's like, I don't know, like a beef brisket or a meatloaf. So anything economical, right? Because even like hamburger meat, you can make that way, you can make it work many, many, many, many, many miles than just a few lamb chops or whatever, right? So if they say, if there is a definition somewhere where they're going to take away sweets and chips and all the rest of it, then that would make sense, right? Like I don't imagine you're ordering pizza with your Snapcard, no more than I would imagine you're getting microwave popcorn and other types of processed things, even if you find them pleasant, right? Like, you know, shoot, I have a weakness with chips and salsa and Doritos and all the rest of it. But they're not typically, I don't think that that counts in the nutritional part of the acronym, right? Just something to think about, just wondering. Okay, well, let's do this. So I don't get you guys late for the next net. I don't have to rush away, but I'm just trying to be time sound, all right? So how about we take some last check-ins and will anyone who comes in, we'll consider them in and out and saying hi and bye. And we'll clue them into what will be coming on to the 73 round. And then when they're done, I'll fire you off one last question so you can take a nice little take-home question, all right? And there's a chance I'll probably throw it in the heat and use it again next week. Catch on to me. Okay, so right now, get at me though and come now with your calls.
