What are you going to do about bringing down the rent and things like that in the economy? Because out of eight children that I'm a father and a stepfather to, five of them are struggling and I'm giving them part of my income on a regular basis. How are you going to make the economy, not just the food and electricity, but bring down the rent prices, the housing prices, so that these kids can survive without their parents help? Such a good question, Mr. President. You're right. You're right. I hear it very well. And I tell you, first of all, I love the people that you're with. I know that I must have at least 99, perhaps 100 percent of all of them, and I think they're incredible. We are going to drill, baby, drill. We're going to bring down the cost of energy. Energy is what caused the worst inflation, I think, in the history of our country. Food prices are up 50 percent, sometimes more. You look at bacon. Bacon is quadrupled. You can't order bacon. You can't order anything. We're living horribly. We have the worst inflation we've probably ever had in our country, and it started because of energy. We're going to drill, baby, drill. And then we're going to have China and all of these countries that were treating us good when I was there, toward that—I mean, it took me a long time to get them to behave properly. All of these countries are going to, again, stop. Like four years ago, I could ask you. You were in great shape. You had low energy costs. You had low food costs. Everything was good. You could buy a house. You had low interest rates, 2 percent interest rates. You had gasoline at $1.87. Now it's $5. And, by the way, going up, and going up very substantially. But you had gasoline at $1.87 a gallon. Nobody talks about that anymore. Nobody even can believe it's going to happen. It's going to happen again. We've got to get the energy prices down, and everything else is going to be tumbling down with it, the prices.
