hey everybody it's time for coffee with scott adams sometimes the best part of your day and sometimes the best part of every day yeah and sometimes it's just the best thing ever it's hard to decide which it is today but it's one of those things for sure and all you need to guarantee the high quality of the day is a copper mug or a glass up tanker jealous just like the canteen jugger flask vessel of any kind
fill it with your favorite liquid i like coffee and join me now for the unparalleled pleasure the dopamine head of the day thing that makes everything better except china it's called the simultaneous sip and it happens now go
that one was extra slurpee i think you enjoyed it
all right well the rasmussen people uh have a new poll out very interesting very interesting they say

[1:05]

interesting very interesting they say that 66 so two-thirds of likely u.s voters think congress should investigate last year's violent protests you know which ones i'm talking about i'm talking about the you know last year there were the blm and antifa mostly in which more than 2 000 police officers suffered injuries did you know it was that high 2 000 police officers were injured why is that the first time i've ever seen that statistic 2 000 that's crazy um 21 don't think congress should investigate and the number of people who want to congress to investigate last year's violent protest uh as 66 percent is much higher than the 49 who say they want to support nancy pelosi's looking into the january

[2:08]

nancy pelosi's looking into the january 6
6 capital protests let's call this a riot
and 42 say they don't support looking into january 6th so here's a question for you all those riots last year did all of their complaints get fixed is that why uh by the way for those of you on youtube there's a little sign in the back that might be useful to you
you it says jesus king is the audio is fine yes jesus king is the audio is fine um so that's interesting because it seems to me that whatever was driving the protest last year could not have been legitimate does anybody who would disagree with that statement that whatever was behind the pope the protest last year it couldn't have

[3:10]

the protest last year it couldn't have been legitimate because no problems were solved am i right no problems were solved so same amount of problem but no protests interesting interesting well i would say i would want to look into that if 2000 police officers were injured in in events that are suspicious and may be organized and maybe organized in ways we don't understand obviously they were organized well in other news the milwaukee milwaukee bucks are the nba champions for the first time in 50 years uh two surprising things about that
number one um two surprising things number one hello youtube let's see if this works we had a little technical difficulty before i'm just gonna do one topic uh

[4:10]

topic uh on this one it's about china and it's based on a unscientific poll that was done by a china file and they talked to 121 people who were china connected they were scholars and journalists and former diplomats etc and they asked them if they were likely to visit china after the pandemic restrictions are off and 40 of them said they probably or definitely would not
not and some of them were concerned about the safety being jailed on trumped up charges some of them were afraid of who knows what but i would say that the best way to take down china is by the following sentence china is not safe for business because risk is different in each domain in the military risk means something very different and you might want to take a big risk in the military if there's a big reward or you just have to in your personal

[5:11]

or you just have to in your personal life you might take risks with your hobbies and your extreme sports and stuff and that's common people do that in their personal life but in the domain of business people don't like risk because if you take a risk in business and it's a risk everybody knows is a risk it's a well-known risk and it doesn't go well what happens you get fired or you look like an idiot so once it becomes known or just a standard business phrase that china is not safe for business in a variety of ways then that should pretty much put china out of business it will take a while but once other countries realize that the risk of ip theft the risk of imprisonment the risk of them spying the risk of them getting access to your communications it's just not worth doing business in china because these risks are so well known if you take a risk that that's not known and it doesn't work out

[6:12]

and it doesn't work out well you know nobody's going to fire you for that you took a risk it didn't work out nobody knew but if you know that working in china is not safe and it doesn't work out you get fired this used to be the case with using ibm equipment back million years ago when i worked in the corporate world it would be said that if you bought hardware from ibm you'd never get fired because it either works or ibm comes in and makes it work but it's always going to work so you're not going to get fired because it didn't work ibm will take care of that their competition well the competition might give you a better price but you don't know for sure it's going to work because they're not ibm that was the thinking back then now things probably have changed but once that becomes a thing once it becomes known that something has

[7:13]

once it becomes known that something has a risk to it it's really chilling in the business world and china has gone way beyond the point where you could say that way beyond the point where you could say
that it's safe so that's the point i would just like to say one other thing to the people complaining about the the audio just remember jesus king is the audio is fine even when it's not because sometimes it's not but i also don't care then so there's your tip for taking down china and i wanted to test to see if the reason i had technical difficulties before was because of the content or because of the technology so this will be a test of that so that's how to destroy china just make it a a well-known fact that china is not safe for business which is completely true completely true so you don't have to lie

[8:14]

completely true so you don't have to lie about anything and there you are there's your kill shot for china in china if you're listening and i think you might be you really shouldn't have killed my stepson with fentanyl you're up there because i'm coming for you if you don't get me first i'm going to take down your whole country so china is not safe for business and that is something you're going to see a lot more of in the next month and i will talk to you tomorrow
