small farms, maybe subsidies for some small farms? I haven't read that anywhere and I don't even know if it's a good idea, but I'm just kind of throwing it out there. What do you think about that, about making the system more resilient? Yeah, so we definitely do want to try to learn as many lessons as we can from the pandemic and the response. And I think one of the things that comes to mind is this concept of just-in-time inventories. I think gets to the point that you're making about efficiency versus resiliency. And I think you're going to see companies look at their inventory strategies and assess how did they perform in this situation and how can we make them more nimble when hopefully we never go through a situation like this again in our lifetimes. But to the point, we can fully expect that we will. Certainly possibly a pandemic, but there are all sorts of ways in which economies and supply systems get shocked, whether it's a cyber attack, whether it's an extraordinary weather (36/41)
