WarrenWe do not tell, we do not tell our companies to do business with each other. We hope they do do business with each other, and we, you know, and we hope that each side of a subsidiary A offers good reasons for subsidiary B to do business with them. But the whole idea at Berkshire is that our managers are responsible for their businesses, and if they're going to be responsible for their businesses, it means we shouldn't tell them what to do, except in very limited ways.
CharlieWell, you've accurately described the way it is. What's interesting about it is we really like it that way. It's a lot less work. And I think, actually, that there's some merit. Sometimes people work better together if it's their decision to work. work together than if you tell them to work together. It goes beyond that. Warren and I would like it that way if we were in the subsidiaries. There's no doubt about that. Yeah, we'd probably leave if it wasn't that way.
