[Music] November 5th election day the most important day of the calendar many are calling this the most important election of their lifetime there's so much at stake originally it was Biden versus Trump now it's Trump versus Harris the tension is unbelievable everyone is glued to their screens to their radios who's it going to be Trump Harris and how much they value our vote in 2020 political spending including rallies tv ads Billboards and the like was 14.4 billion this year open Secrets predicts it will be at least 15.9 billion maybe 16 billion 16 billion doll what they're asking you to do is to leave work leave your family leave whatever you'd rather be doing and vote now maybe it'll take you a half an hour maybe less the question is how much do they value your time well let's do some math if you divide 15.9 billion do between 86.5 million people that's the number of Americans who are registered to vote as of September 2024 you'll be giving each one of them $852 not bad for half an hour of your time but let's look at this another way the ne says that the reason Hashem created the world as a sphere was that it would always be that somewhere there'd be day somewhere on the planet there would be daylight somewhere on this globe people would be awake and there'll be a from Jew burning the midnight oil toiling in tah because if there would be one split second when no Jew was learning Torah the world would return to to the learns this from word not for hashem's bris of day and night the Torah the continual learning of the Torah I would never have created the physical world said Hashem without that constant energy of Torah learning and OB servant of the Mitzvah the whole world would return to primordial emptiness the world omous world population clock says that right now there are 8.2 billion people in the world on IR Russia shaa the year before last the Jewish agency said that the number of Jews worldwide stood at approximately 15.7 million we are little more than 0.2% of the entire world's population but it doesn't stop there according to the institute for Jewish policy research in 22 only one in seven Jews are from in other words there are only 2 million people us giving life to the 8.2 billion inhabitants of this planet if you do some simple math every second you learn Torah or do a Mitzvah or resist the temptation to look where you shouldn't you just gave life to 4,000 people 4,000 and if kala from yiden would suddenly take a day off Alto together stop doing the mitzah stop learning ding giving doing the world all 8.2 billion people would quite literally cease to exist it's really quite impressive how powerful our actions are politicians May value your vote at $85 and change but a Frum juu breathes life the most valuable gift in the world into 4,000 people every single second [Music]
