And it starts with copper, the mineral copper. Theres copper in brass. Theres copper in bronze. The Statue Of Liberty is sheathed in a layer of copper. Thats about the thickness of two pennies. Pennies themselves used to be copper, but now theyre just coppercovered zinc, which sort of seems sad. It makes financial sense, because copper over time became too valuable to use in something as cheap as a penny, because most of what we use copper for now is conducting electricity. We use copper for wiring. There is a massive global appetite for copper. And the Worlds Largest producer of copper is an american company. Its a company that used to be based in new orleans but now the Mining Company freeport is based in phoenix, arizona. And the freeport Mining Company of phoenix, arizona, they do still mine copper in arizona and

rank first, second, and third as the least productive congresses we ve ever had, since anybody started tracking the productivity of congresses at the end of world war ii. this congress just ending today also had the lowest confirmation rate for civilian nominees in modern american history. for the first time since the modern budget process was created in 1974, this congress for the first time ever, they didn t even try to pass a budget. at least in previous terrible congresses, they tried and failed to pass a budget. this time they didn t even bother to try before they failed. this congress that just died excuse me, this congress that just ended today, they also worked the fewest days of any congress in the last 60 years. that s impressive. congress is less popular than gum on your shoe. congress is less popular than gum on your socks. congress is less popular than gum in your hair. and it has been for a good long time.
