=== Can't Keep Band-Aiding Our Grid (02:02) ===

[00:00:00]  Our grid is the it's just the big, big mistake that our leaders have made by not bringing it up to date.
[00:00:10]  Our grid is antiquated.
[00:00:13]  It is a very old grid.
[00:00:15]  And they just keep adding to it instead of fixing it and hardening it.
[00:00:21]  And so you need to be ready because the crisis will come.
[00:00:28]  Frank, when the Texas grid failed during the ice storm in 2021, if you remember that.
[00:00:35]  I do.
[00:00:36]  It was reported that there were only four and a half minutes away from a total collapse of the grid in that region.
[00:00:48]  Why has the grid been allowed to become so antiquated, do you think, in America?
[00:00:54]  Oh, boy.
[00:00:58]  Just nobody's taking responsibility, you know, whether political parties or whatever the case may be.
[00:01:05]  And nobody wants to step up and do what needs to be done because of the cost to totally redo the grid.
[00:01:14]  And so they band-aid it just to keep it going and put our hard-earned money into other stupid stuff.
[00:01:25]  Yes, you're right.
[00:01:28]  Well, you just can't keep putting band-aids on a grid.
[00:01:33]  You just can't keep adding another extension cord.
[00:01:37]  No, it's a 140-year-old grid that really hasn't been updated.
[00:01:42]  You know, so again, you know, we are in a very vulnerable situation from our grid.
[00:01:50]  And, you know, what we're talking about, if you are prepared, you shall not fear.
[00:01:57]  But I can't even fathom what we're going to be getting into.
