Anger. Because there seems to be anger, at least from certain political sides of this, and AOC

recently said in a podcast, and Mr. Curious, how you think about this, says there's a certain level

of wealth and accumulation that is unearned, she says. You can't earn a billion dollars.

Just can't earn that, she says. You can get market power, you can break rules,

you can abuse labor laws, you can pay people less than what they're worth, but you can't earn that.

By the way, you've earned an extraordinary amount of money, you employ the largest employer,

if not one of them, in the whole country. When you read that, what do you think?

Well, it's not cracked on its face. Let me give you a simple example. Let's say you start a

burger joint and you have 10 employees, and you make a little bit of money. So you have,

this is this one outlet, and by the way, these are the most delicious burgers in the world.

People love your burgers, Andrew. And so then you open a second outlet, and now you're making a

little bit more money, and you have 20 employees, and you open a third outlet. By the time you've

opened a thousand outlets, you are a billionaire. And by the way, this is a real life story,

it happens all the time. It's In-N-Out Burger, it's Raisin Canes chicken. At what point

did that money all of a sudden become unethical? It didn't. There was one outlet,

and then there were two, and then there were three. What you're doing, the way you make a

billion dollars, or a hundred million dollars, or ten million dollars, or anything, is you create

a service that people love. And if millions of people choose your service, you're going to end

up with a billion dollars. And you can just try it with a chicken franchise. But you're

going to end up with a billion dollars. Chicken has to be good.
