things that makes this country so exceptional and important because it creates new wealth.

0:29.1

It's new risk in the marketplace.

0:30.5

And it delivers for the consumer, the customer, and the citizen new ideas, better products,

and it's that constant competition is always refining us towards

a better version of success.

So that is, of course, Charlie Kirk, but he's speaking to Andrew K. Smith, Rastarantua, co-founder
