Mark Levin featured CEI’s short film I, pencil to show how Harris Inflation plan won’t work

Levin then proceeded to show a video put together by the Competitive Enterprise Institute on the manufacturing of a lead pencil.

It noted the thousands of people that are needed to create the pencil that is made up of four basic components: cedar wood shaft, graphite lead, rubber eraser, and a metal ferrule that attaches the eraser to the shaft.

The raw materials for these components come from all over the world, requiring people to harvest and mine them and others to decide where to purchase them from, based on current market conditions.

They must then be transported thousands of miles to be manufactured into a pencil. Many decisions are made along to way to get to the finished product and into the hands of a consumer.

Levin held up a pencil and said, “The federal government doesn’t know how to make this pencil.”

“Do you know what Kamala Harris wants to do to this pencil? She wants to break it. You know how you break it? Taxes, regulations, interference, harassment, legal investigations,” he added, breaking the pencil to illustrate his point.

“You see how complicated it is to make a pencil? Imagine running a health care system. … Imagine running the energy system in this country … Or how about our food chain,” Levin said.
