No thictocrats allowed, because we've got 2 00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:07,040 Speaker 1: a country to say, so let's get her teed up. 3 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:16,720 Speaker 1: Subdgo Triple eight nine seven one seven two four to 4 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:19,520 Speaker 1: three Triple eight ninety seven one s A G.

Jasmine Crockett, who's running for 6 00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:28,320 Speaker 1: Senate in Texas, says she's counting on the Texas AOC 7 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:31,640 Speaker 1: and Texas Mom Donnie voters. She also, by the way, 8 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:35,240 Speaker 1: said Latinos who vote for Donald Trump have a quote 9 00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:38,600 Speaker 1: slave mentality close quote. I'm sure that's going to go 10 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 1: over well with the text of Latino voters. Obamacare's faults 11 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 1: are suddenly a Republican problem. Fraud, however, is rampant.

And I don't think Letterman was joking. 14 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 1: Some day Democrats are saying that Donald Trump has lost 15 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,800 Speaker 1: it mentally. You know, the same ones who were saying 16 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: that Joe Biden was sharp as attack. Bernie Sanders says 17 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 1: he's quote not a great supporter of Obamacare close quote, 18 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:16,119 Speaker 1: because of course he wants it to go further. Illinois 19 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:20,839 Speaker 1: governor signs a bill giving illegal aliens greater protection against deportation. 20 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 1: Joy Reid and Charlottage the God say that Donald Trump 21 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 1: has no intention of leaving office when his term ends. 22 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: You're not gonna take me alive, Copper. The BBC that 23 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:41,199 Speaker 1: admitted earlier that they deceptively edited Trump's January sixth speech 24 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: to make it look like he was encouraging violence are 25 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 1: now admitting that they falsely accused Trump of wanting to 26 00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: kill Liz Cheney. Why does rint control not work? And 27 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 1: where is the so called housing affordability crisis in Red States? 28 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: What's this? Trump's approval ratings up three points in just 29 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 1: one week. I repeat, Trump's approval ratings up three points 30 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: in just one week. A judge has ordered the release 31 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 1: of the Epstein grand jury files, and as expected, today, 32 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: the Fed cut interest rates by one quarter of a point. 33 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: But first, hope you're sitting down. If you're driving, you 34 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: probably are. Rasmussen poll finds fifty one percent of likely 35 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: voters under the age of forty want a Democrat socialist 36 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 1: to win the twenty twenty eight presidential election. Let me 37 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 1: read that again. New Rasmussen poll fifty one percent of 38 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: likely voters under forty want a Democrat socialist to become 39 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: our next president. Among young Democrats, eighty two percent support 40 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: a Democrat socialist president. Again, among young Democrats those forty 41 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: and under, eighty two percent want a Zoron Mom, Donnie 42 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: or a Bernie Sanders type to become president. Even twenty 43 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:30,040 Speaker 1: four percent of Republicans under the age of forty want 44 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: a Democrat socialist to become president. What gives When asked 45 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: who influenced them towards socialism, twenty seven percents that their 46 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 1: parents seventeen percent set online videos and podcasts. That means 47 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: one in four learned to love socialism because of mom 48 00:03:54,120 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: and dad. What's going on here? Young people raised in 49 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: affluence have no blooming idea the damage socialism has caused societies. 50 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: They're spoiled, and they believe that there's some big money 51 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 1: tree in the back. All you have to do is 52 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:24,679 Speaker 1: shake it and money comes reining in from the pockets 53 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:34,480 Speaker 1: of rich people who are undeserved. Consider this. This is CNBC. Now, 54 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: CNBC is no right wing organization, It's a part of NBC. 55 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: NBC despises Trump. They issued a report came out this 56 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 1: month Apartment vacancies around America have climbed to an all 57 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 1: time high. What wouldn't that mean rents should be going down? 58 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: Apartment vacancies across America all time high, which shows you 59 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 1: America does not have a housing shortage, It has a 60 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: policy shortage. The people like Mamdani blame landlords, they blame developers, 61 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: they blame corporate greed. They never look into the freaking mirror. 62 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: According to the CNBC report, not Wah, the cities with 63 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 1: the worst so called affordability crises are the ones that 64 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: impose heavy handed regulation zoning, rent control, endless environmental reviews, 65 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: height and density limits, years of fees, permits, approvals that 66 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: slow development to a crawl. I wrote a book called 67 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 1: As Goes California, My Mission to rescue the Golden State 68 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: and save the nation. In California, it's ground zero for 69 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: all this nonsense. During my race for governor, I was 70 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 1: interviewed by a black newspaper in Sacramento, and the guy 71 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 1: that interviewed me was not hostile. He asked me sensible questions, 72 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: which I appreciated, didn't think I was a sellout. And 73 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: then during the break in the interview, he told me 74 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: that he was probably going to move from California to 75 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 1: Nevada because he's starting a family and he can't afford 76 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: the price of a home. I said, yeah, the regulatory 77 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 1: scheme here in California. I mean, particularly because of SEQUE, 78 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: he said, because of what I said, sequel, the California 79 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 1: Quality Environment Act. Never heard of it. You never heard 80 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: of sequel, he said, No, I said, was passed when 81 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: Reagan was a governor. The idea was to make sure 82 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: that our water was cleaned and their air wasn't dirty. 83 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: But since then the environmentalists have expanded it to the 84 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 1: point where almost anybody who wants to build anything has 85 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: to file endless environmental reports and will be sued here 86 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: and there by environmental groups and by labor groups to 87 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: pull out extractions, commands, demands. As a result, California's probably 88 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 1: a million fewer units than otherwise would have. And I 89 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: told him. According to an economist that I've often interviewed 90 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: who specialize us in, among other things, real estate, Leohanian 91 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 1: from UCLA, he said, the average price of a home 92 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: in California should be no more than ten to fifteen 93 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 1: percent higher than that of the rest of the country. Instead, 94 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: it is one hundred percent higher because of all these 95 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: rules and regulation, primarily because of sequel. The guy had 96 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: never heard of it. The report from CNBC says the 97 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: patterns always the same. Bureaucrats stack regulation on top of 98 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: regulation until it becomes nearly impossible to build a new 99 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: house at a reasonable cost, and then they are stunned 100 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: shocked when the price goes up, and then they run 101 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: around talking about an affordability crisis, pass even more rules 102 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 1: and regulation to make things worse. Record high vacancy should 103 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: be putshing rents down, but the system is so warped 104 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:48,680 Speaker 1: that it doesn't overcome this systemic dysfunction. Developers can can't 105 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 1: address pricing because of regulatory burdens. Landlords can't reduce rent 106 00:08:56,040 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: because rent control eviction freezes punishes people try to operate 107 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: a property like an actual business. So the incentive to 108 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: build has collapsed. That's why you have fifty thousand so 109 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 1: called ghost units in New York that just sent empty 110 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,839 Speaker 1: because the landlords say, I can't make a profit if 111 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 1: I put somebody in there because of rent control, I 112 00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 1: can't raise the rents, I can't get the person out, 113 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: so it's better to just leave the apartment vacant. Meanwhile, 114 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:36,079 Speaker 1: red states operate under a very different system. Florida, Texas, 115 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: Tennessee and other pro growth states have streamline. They're permitting 116 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:49,559 Speaker 1: pro building zoning policies that attract a development. So these 117 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: states don't have ghost apartments and they're seeing population growth, 118 00:09:55,200 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: robust construction and competitive pricing. Contrast could not be clearer. 119 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,439 Speaker 1: And the losers are not wealthy people. They can afford 120 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 1: to live wherever they want. The losers are young families, 121 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: first time renners, seniors on fixed income, teachers, police officers, nurses, 122 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,520 Speaker 1: service workers, you know the ones that Democrats purport to 123 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: care about. Perhaps Zoran mom Dami is listening. I doubt it. 124 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 1: More on this business about socialism and about the welfare 125 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 1: state that young people believe a society cannot become prosperous 126 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:37,600 Speaker 1: without triple eight nine seven, one, seven, two four three. 127 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: I'm Larry Yonder Angel Tree Christmas campaign with our friends 128 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 1: at the non profit Prison Fellowship. There are literally thousands 129 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,079 Speaker 1: of children all over America who have a mom or 130 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: dad in prison, meaning they will not see their parent 131 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 1: on Christmas.

That's Larryelder dot com. We're talking about a 191 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:03,440 Speaker 1: shocking Rasmussen poll that minds fifty one percent of likely 192 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: voters under the age of forty want a Democrat socialist 193 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:11,839 Speaker 1: to become president. Eighty two percent of Democrat likely voters 194 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: under the age of forty want a democrat socialist to 195 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: become president. The principal promise that Zoran Mamdami has made 196 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: is to freeze the rent for two million New Yorkers 197 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:31,000 Speaker 1: who already are in rent stabilized apartments. So they've already 198 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: got rent control. But because the prices can rise to 199 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 1: some degree under the rent control, that's just too much. 200 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,920 Speaker 1: Say's promising to freeze the rent for two others, two 201 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: million New Yorkers who already have rent stabilized apartments. Fifty 202 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 1: one percent likely voters under forty want a democrat socialist. 203 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: You know, we've had lots of real world cases where 204 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 1: you can compare one system versus another with exactly the 205 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 1: same people, whether it's East Germany versus West Germany, North 206 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 1: Korea versus South Korea, Cuba versus South Miami. But here's one. 207 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: A lot of people don't talk about. 208 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 3: Hong Kong. 209 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: After World War Two, Hong Kong was taken over by 210 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: Great Britain. Now this is important. Great Britain, of course, 211 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 1: is socialist. But the person that was put in charge 212 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 1: of Hong Kong by the Brits was a big free 213 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:59,400 Speaker 1: market guy, a big Adam Smith guy. And while Britain 214 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: was moving towards socialism and a welfare estate. He insisted 215 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:08,280 Speaker 1: that Hong Kong practice free markets in very little regulation. 216 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:17,080 Speaker 1: His name was John Cooperthwaite, and Great Britain appointed him 217 00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: to be the Financial Secretary of Hong Kong. Now nineteen 218 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: fifty five, ten years after the war ended, it was 219 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 1: a pretty miserable place, very poor. Bunch of one room 220 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 1: sells that the government had thrown up one family, one room. 221 00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: That people would live in such abject poverty is a 222 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 1: testament to their desire to leave communist China, and that's 223 00:16:52,960 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 1: where so many of the refugees came from. In nineteen sixty, 224 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: the average per capita income in Hong Kong was twenty 225 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:09,600 Speaker 1: eight percent that of Great Britain. Thirty six years later 226 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,959 Speaker 1: it had risen to one hundred and thirty seven percent 227 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 1: of that of Great Britain. In short, from nineteen sixty 228 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:23,399 Speaker 1: to nineteen ninety five, the Hong Kong per capita income 229 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: rose from around a quarter of Great Britain's to more 230 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 1: than a third larger than that of Great Britain. Now, 231 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:38,439 Speaker 1: think about Hong Kong. No resources other than a great harbor, 232 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 1: just a rock overcrowded, But within four decades, the residents 233 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:51,080 Speaker 1: of this overcrowded land had achieved a level of income 234 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: a third higher than that enjoyed by the residents of 235 00:17:54,800 --> 00:18:02,360 Speaker 1: its mother country. How did this happen? No minimum wage, 236 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 1: very little regulation. Government spending at its maximum was no 237 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:12,639 Speaker 1: more than fifteen percent of national income, substantially lower than 238 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 1: that of Great Britain, substantially lower than that of ours. 239 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:26,680 Speaker 1: How did that happen? Light touch, very little regulation, allowing 240 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 1: people to do what people do. Somebody once said, capitalism 241 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 1: isn't in ism, It's what happened when you leave people alone. Now, 242 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:43,239 Speaker 1: if you believe in democrats socialism, what happened in Hong 243 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: Kong could not possibly happen. If you believe in rent control, 244 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: what happened in Hong Kong could not possibly have happened. 245 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 1: If you believe in a what is he proposing thirty 246 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 1: dollars minimum wage in New York, then what happened in 247 00:18:58,240 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 1: Hong Kong could not have happened. They had no mindum 248 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 1: way until twenty eleven. And that's not the only example. 249 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 1: People like Bernie Sanders in ALC when asked to name 250 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: an example of a successful socialist country. They often point 251 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 1: to Sweden. Let's talk about Sweden. Fifty one percent likely 252 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 1: voters under the age of forty want a Democrat socialist 253 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:41,439 Speaker 1: to become president in twenty twenty eight.

Now, 317 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 1: as I was saying before, I was so rudely interrupted. 318 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 1: When people like Bernie Sanders AOC are asked name a 319 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:41,800 Speaker 1: successful socialist country, they point to Sweden. Here's a problem. 320 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:47,679 Speaker 1: Sweden did not begin to become a welfare estate until 321 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 1: after it become a very successful country because of free 322 00:23:52,320 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 1: market capitalism between eighteen forty eighteen seventy rapid rapid growth. 323 00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 1: As early as nineteen fifty, Sweden was the fourth richest 324 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 1: country in the world, also one of the freest in 325 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 1: terms of the amount of money that the government took 326 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 1: from taxpayers. Public spending was below twenty percent of GDP 327 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: twenty percent here in America, all three levels, it's around 328 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 1: thirty two percent. And if you put a price tag 329 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 1: on mandates, that's when the government tells you to do something, 330 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 1: buy something that you don't believe you want to buy 331 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 1: or should buy, it could be as high as fifty percent. 332 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 1: Nineteen fifty government in Sweden was smaller than in other 333 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 1: Western countries and taxes were lower than here in America. 334 00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 1: Only in the seventies. In nineteen eighties did Sweden expand 335 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 1: its government dramatically, with more spending, more taxation, and more regulation. 336 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 1: And guess what. Growth slowed down and centives for work 337 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: and entrepreneurship were weakened, Welfare dependency increased, private sectors stopped 338 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:18,640 Speaker 1: creating jobs, real wages stagnated, and many of Sweden's most 339 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 1: important businesses, like Ikea, left the country. Sweden ran large 340 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 1: budget surpluses every year and had a dangerous spiral of 341 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: inflation and debt. Had a deep financial crisis in the 342 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: early nineteen nineties. Then Sweden woke up the reversed course, 343 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:53,119 Speaker 1: deregulated the economy, reduced taxes, reduced the size of government, 344 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:58,840 Speaker 1: introduced a bunch of fiscal rules that reduced public debt substantially. 345 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:06,159 Speaker 1: System was reformed. Government owned businesses were privatized, and Sweden 346 00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 1: abolished taxes on wealth, on gift gifts, and on inheritances. 347 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:19,200 Speaker 1: And guess what, real growth exploded. Sweden became a pioneer 348 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: in privatizing welfare services, giving people the freedom to choose 349 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 1: different providers of elder care, healthcare, preschool. Around a fifth 350 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,800 Speaker 1: of all tax funded welfare services were now provided by 351 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:36,879 Speaker 1: the private sector. Its welfare state is still larger than ours, 352 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 1: but it has a value added tax. The point is 353 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 1: Sweden could not have been Sweden without free markets.

That's relieffactor dot com. Now, 362 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 1: I've talked for decades about the number one social problem 363 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 1: facing this country, which is the epidemic of fatherlessness. Today, 364 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 1: forty percent of all American children into the world without 365 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,120 Speaker 1: a father in the home married to the mother, fifty 366 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: percent of Hispanic kids, roughly seventy percent of Black kids. 367 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: And the numbers are clear. When you're raised out a father, 368 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: you're five times or are likely to be poor and 369 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,439 Speaker 1: commit crime, nine times we're likely to drop out of school, 370 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 1: and twenty times we're likely to end up in jail. 371 00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 1: These are numbers that even Barack Obama once cited. But 372 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 1: culture can change and policy can change. This wasn't always 373 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 1: the case. In the mid sixties, Lyndon Johnson, Democrat, launched 374 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:18,120 Speaker 1: what he called the War on Poverty, and since then 375 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,440 Speaker 1: we have financially and incentivised women to marry the government 376 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 1: and financially incentivizes men to abandon their moral and financial responsibility. 377 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 1: There's a really interesting and long article in The City 378 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: Journal headlined how Dagger john Saved New York's Irish came 379 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 1: out of nineteen ninety seven. This article and it mentioned 380 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 1: that one hundred years earlier in New York, tens of 381 00:28:51,560 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 1: thousands of Irish seemed like a lost community. Poverty, ignorance, idleness, drinking, violence, criminality, illegitimacy, 382 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:12,720 Speaker 1: but it changed eventually. The sons of criminals were now 383 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 1: the policeman, the daughters of illiterates had become city school teachers. 384 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 1: Those who had been outcasts were now running its political machinery. 385 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: And it was no government job training program or welfare 386 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: system that did it. What accomplished it you ask a 387 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 1: moral transformation, a revolution and values, a change in culture, 388 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 1: led primarily by a man named John Joseph Hughes, an 389 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 1: Irish immigrant gardener who later became known as Dagger. John 390 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: grew up in poverty. His father brought the family to 391 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: America in eighteen seventeen. Teen seventeen, Hughes, twenty years old, 392 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: went to work as a gardener, became a priest. Ultimately 393 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 1: he led a diocese between eighteen twenty eighteen thirty immigration. 394 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 1: Hundreds of thousands of Irish came here, impoverished, unskilled, little education. 395 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 1: Hughes did not want the Catholics to become second class 396 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:42,120 Speaker 1: citizens in America as they had been in the old country, 397 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: and he immediately went to war over the city schools. 398 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: Thought they were poorly run, did not emphasize kind of 399 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:56,080 Speaker 1: education necessary. He built a Catholic school system that would 400 00:30:56,200 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 1: educate Catholic children the way he thought they should be educated. 401 00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:04,959 Speaker 1: It emphasized not only the three hours, but also a 402 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 1: faith based code of personal conduct that demanded respect for 403 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 1: teachers and fellow students. Parents had to attend meetings with 404 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 1: teachers and do repair work and help clean the schools. Eventually, 405 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 1: he created over one hundred such schools, and not content 406 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 1: to just do primary and secondary schools, he also founded 407 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 1: or helped to found institution like Fordham University. Nineteen forty five, 408 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 1: he had his greatest challenge. That was a year the 409 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 1: potato crop failed completely in Ireland. Massive massive immigration caused 410 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 1: two million Irish to come to the country between eighteen 411 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 1: forty five and eighteen sixty. Most arrived in New York, 412 00:31:55,880 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: and what were called coffin ships densely passed no toilet facilities, 413 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: Filth and disease were rampant. They slept on narrow, closely 414 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: stacked shelves. Women were so vulnerable to molestation they slept 415 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: sitting up. In eighteen forty seven, about forty thousand died 416 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: making the voyage. They took up residence in New York. 417 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: Dilapidated housing one rooms sellers became dwellings atticts, became dwellings, 418 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 1: Hughes went to work. Death was everywhere. There were an 419 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 1: estimated fifty thousand Irish prostitutes. The death rate of Irish 420 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 1: families in New York in the eighteen fifties was twenty 421 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 1: one percent. Among non Irish it was three percent. Life 422 00:32:53,960 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: expectancy New York's Irish average maybe forty years. Tuberculosis became 423 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: a natural death. His solution was through spiritual revitalization. He 424 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: bought abandoned Protestant church buildings, foreigned parish councils, sent parish 425 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 1: priests on a mission of urban development, religion and personal responsibility, 426 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 1: stressing the importance of hard work and accountability and good morals. 427 00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 1: Alcohol was a huge problem. He preached abstinence. He found 428 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 1: jobs for people, encouraged the nuns to find jobs, encouraged 429 00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:51,760 Speaker 1: support groups kind of like alcoholics anonymous to help people 430 00:33:51,800 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 1: deal with concerns. The nuns developed employment agencies. When it 431 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:08,760 Speaker 1: came to charity, he had nothing but contempt for government charity. 432 00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 1: Things we're done through through donations. He encouraged the formation 433 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 1: of a Society for Destitute Catholic Children to rescue the children. 434 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 1: Mission was clear, hard work, proper religious instruction and behavior 435 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 1: that emphasized personal responsibility. Within a few decades, things have 436 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 1: changed dramatically. I'll talk about that when I come back. 437 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:43,160 Speaker 5: Now. 438 00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:45,839 Speaker 1: Ever been in a bad relationship, You know the kind 439 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,279 Speaker 1: it just wears you down, you suddenly and even though 440 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 1: deep down you know this isn't how it's supposed to be.

The governor of Illinois has signed a 484 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 1: bill providing illegal alien's greater protection against Trump, and Bill 485 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 1: Maher says, you know, I would consider voting Republican, but 486 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:20,520 Speaker 1: they have to stop denying elections first. All of this 487 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 1: and more, let me just finish this thought here now. 488 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 1: Thirty or forty years after the New Yorkers viewed the 489 00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:38,880 Speaker 1: Irish as a criminal class, by the eighteen eighties eighteen nineties, 490 00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:42,520 Speaker 1: the Irish proportion of arrest for violent crime had dropped 491 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 1: from sixty percent to less than ten percent. Three quarters 492 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 1: of the police force became Irish. The Irish were prosecutors, judges. 493 00:37:54,880 --> 00:38:00,279 Speaker 1: Alcoholism and drug addiction pretty much withered away. By the 494 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:03,920 Speaker 1: eighteen eighties. It is estimated that sixty percent of Irish 495 00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,080 Speaker 1: women and almost a third of Irish men totally abstained 496 00:38:07,080 --> 00:38:11,160 Speaker 1: from alcohol. Many sections of the City of New York 497 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:16,320 Speaker 1: became known for their peacefulness, order and cleanliness. Irish sections 498 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:20,800 Speaker 1: a far cry from the filth and violence of places 499 00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 1: like Five Points and Sweeneysh shambles of the mid century. 500 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 1: Irish prostitution virtually disappeared from the city. The army of 501 00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 1: Irish young boys wandering around the city without adult supervision 502 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:43,320 Speaker 1: almost completely gone. Children entered the priesthood or the convent 503 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 1: went into professions politics, sports, show business, and commerce. By 504 00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,399 Speaker 1: eighteen ninety, some thirty percent of the New York City's 505 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:58,880 Speaker 1: teachers were Irish. The Irish literacy rate exceeded ninety percent. 506 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 1: All this happened over a period of thirty or forty years. 507 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:15,359 Speaker 1: I'm Larry Elder, so let's get her teed up. 508 00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 4: You trying to play shutting off to my ear with 509 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 4: that subdigal. 510 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 1: Triple eight nine seven one s A g E.

If 530 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 7: the leader of the free world is a fool, the 531 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:03,920 Speaker 7: leader of the free world then should expect and examine 532 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,520 Speaker 7: every bit of ridicule he receives. 533 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:14,680 Speaker 1: I'm not even sure what that even means. Jimmy Kimmel's 534 00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:18,880 Speaker 1: wife says she's lost family members because of Trump, but 535 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:23,320 Speaker 1: her husband is fighting Trump every day in the trenches, 536 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:27,799 Speaker 1: taking income, wearing a kevlar vest number ninety four. 537 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 9: Thankfully, my immediate family all they did not vote for 538 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 9: Donald Trump. They did the first time, a few of 539 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 9: them we flipped them the second time. It's it's weird. 540 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:45,600 Speaker 9: When Donald Trump was first elected, I was so upset, 541 00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:48,839 Speaker 9: we all were. But I remember thinking, I understand it 542 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:53,760 Speaker 9: because I grew up in a very conservative Republican house. 543 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,160 Speaker 9: I mean, I bought my dad a rush limbought taie. 544 00:41:56,239 --> 00:42:00,799 Speaker 9: In high school, I voted Republicans straight ticket, and that's 545 00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,880 Speaker 9: what I was told to do. And then I left 546 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,600 Speaker 9: Saint Louis, Missouri, and I met people from different backgrounds, 547 00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:11,320 Speaker 9: and I started to understand different things and different needs 548 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,200 Speaker 9: and different people. And so there's like a little bit 549 00:42:14,200 --> 00:42:17,279 Speaker 9: of sympathy I have for people in my family that 550 00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:21,719 Speaker 9: I feel are kind of being deliberately misinformed every day. 551 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:26,719 Speaker 9: And they've yeah, they are deliberately being misinformed every day, 552 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:30,920 Speaker 9: and they believe it. But it hurts me so much 553 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:35,279 Speaker 9: because of the personal relationship I now have, where my 554 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:39,799 Speaker 9: husband is out there fighting this man, and to me, 555 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 9: them voting for Trump is them not voting for my 556 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 9: husband and me and our family, and I unfortunately have 557 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 9: kind of lost relationships with people in my family because 558 00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 9: of it. This is not just Republican versus Democrat for 559 00:42:56,640 --> 00:43:00,200 Speaker 9: me anymore. It is to me it's family value, and 560 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 9: it's it's really hard for me because I grew up 561 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:06,200 Speaker 9: believing in these Christian ideals of taking care of the 562 00:43:06,280 --> 00:43:08,359 Speaker 9: sick and taking care of the poor, and I don't 563 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 9: see that happening with this Republican party. And so it's 564 00:43:11,840 --> 00:43:14,480 Speaker 9: I feel like I'm kind of in constant conflict and 565 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,879 Speaker 9: I'm angry all the time, which isn't healthy at all, 566 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:22,680 Speaker 9: But I like personalize everything now. When I see these 567 00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:26,800 Speaker 9: terrible stories every day, I'm immediately mad at certain aunts, uncles, 568 00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:30,560 Speaker 9: cousins who put him in power. And it's really hard, 569 00:43:30,600 --> 00:43:34,520 Speaker 9: and it's I wish I could like deprogram myself. 570 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 1: In some way. Republicans don't care about the sick, don't 571 00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:43,719 Speaker 1: care about the poor. How many times do you hear 572 00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:49,880 Speaker 1: this nonsense? I've talked you about this before. There's a 573 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 1: book called Who Really Cares? Read by a former professor 574 00:43:54,640 --> 00:44:03,759 Speaker 1: at Syracuse, and he wanted to do a paper and 575 00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:08,440 Speaker 1: found out Arthur Brooks that no one had ever done 576 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,480 Speaker 1: a study on who was more generous with their time 577 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,319 Speaker 1: with their money conservatives or liberals. He assumed the ante 578 00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 1: would be liberals, but no one had ever done a 579 00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:22,960 Speaker 1: real study, and he was shocked, so he did the 580 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:26,640 Speaker 1: research over again. It turned out conservatives were far more 581 00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:30,840 Speaker 1: generous with their money and with their time than liberals, 582 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 1: and there were primarily two reasons for this. The first 583 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:37,520 Speaker 1: is conservatives tended to be more religious than liberals, and 584 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:40,200 Speaker 1: religious people give much more of their time and their 585 00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:44,760 Speaker 1: money than non religious people. By the way, religious liberals 586 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,240 Speaker 1: give just as much as religious conservatives, they're just fewer 587 00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:52,840 Speaker 1: of them. And the second reason is a conservatives believe 588 00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:56,960 Speaker 1: that the needs of the need should be dealt with privately, 589 00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:00,479 Speaker 1: not through government, and they talked the talk and walk 590 00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:03,880 Speaker 1: the walk. So if you hear Jimmy Kimball's wife, her 591 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:07,960 Speaker 1: reason for disliking Trump is he believes he and presumably 592 00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,560 Speaker 1: his voters don't care about the sick, don't care about 593 00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:14,480 Speaker 1: the poor, don't care about the elderly. Win In fact, 594 00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:18,640 Speaker 1: based on who's more generous with their time and with 595 00:45:18,680 --> 00:45:26,960 Speaker 1: their money, it is completely false. Bill Maher says he 596 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:30,680 Speaker 1: may lose friendship with Jimmy Kimball over his willingness to 597 00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:34,000 Speaker 1: even talk to Trump supporters number ninety three. 598 00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:36,399 Speaker 8: I don't want to rage. I feel like I'm the 599 00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 8: anti rager, even though I am very critical obviously of 600 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 8: both sides and love my job and doing that, but rage. 601 00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:50,600 Speaker 8: I'm trying to get the rage down and the mental 602 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:54,520 Speaker 8: part down. And you know, I mean it's Thanksgiving. Yeah, 603 00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:57,560 Speaker 8: you know, my message last week on our last show 604 00:45:57,600 --> 00:46:00,520 Speaker 8: this season, and every Thanksgiving really for the last five years, 605 00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 8: has been I'm in the talk to them wing of 606 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:08,319 Speaker 8: the Democratic Party. I'm not in the cut your people off, right, 607 00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:11,799 Speaker 8: don't cut them off. And you know I have friends 608 00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:15,440 Speaker 8: who you know, are not on that side of it 609 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 8: and didn't like what I said and. 610 00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:18,720 Speaker 10: They cut you off. 611 00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:24,720 Speaker 8: Well, that's such an interesting issue. One relationship is that's 612 00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:28,360 Speaker 8: in the balance. I mean, you know it was and 613 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 8: that's not a real friend like well, I mean we 614 00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,640 Speaker 8: weren't close. I mean, I'm talking to like it it 615 00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:35,880 Speaker 8: was Jimmy Kimmel. I mean, I said it publicly and 616 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 8: I liked Jimmy a lot. And his wife wrote that 617 00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:44,840 Speaker 8: thing that said, you know, she did lose family members. 618 00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:48,160 Speaker 8: She wrote them before the election and said, here's ten 619 00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:50,799 Speaker 8: reasons why you just can't vote for Trump. And then 620 00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 8: some of them, you know, just didn't follow that. And 621 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:58,160 Speaker 8: I was as kid gloves as I could, and I 622 00:46:58,320 --> 00:47:01,480 Speaker 8: see they're they're met at me, and I'm sorry. I mean, 623 00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 8: I was being again as respectful as I could, but 624 00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:10,439 Speaker 8: I don't agree with that point of view. And since 625 00:47:10,480 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 8: she went public with it, it wasn't out of school 626 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:15,520 Speaker 8: for me to go public with it. I love Jimmy, 627 00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:17,279 Speaker 8: I've always have. I don't know him that well, but 628 00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:21,080 Speaker 8: he's a great guy and we have a connection. Like 629 00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:25,680 Speaker 8: we were both fired by ABC and he took my 630 00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,640 Speaker 8: I had that time slot, so like, it's so interesting, 631 00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 8: the same ABC, I mean, Disney executive Candice both. It's 632 00:47:34,160 --> 00:47:38,120 Speaker 8: interesting the connections, and so I hope we're friends forever. 633 00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:42,920 Speaker 8: But I don't know, you know, these the liberals and 634 00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:44,240 Speaker 8: the woke, that's a schism. 635 00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:45,440 Speaker 4: It just is. 636 00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:51,520 Speaker 1: This is where we are where Bill Maher It's perceived 637 00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:56,360 Speaker 1: to be courageous for just being willing to talk to 638 00:47:56,400 --> 00:48:01,120 Speaker 1: Trump supporters, just the very act of time talking to them. 639 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:05,879 Speaker 1: He's compromising his friendship with Jimmy Kimball. He says, how 640 00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:11,239 Speaker 1: asinine is this? What did Jade Vance say? When you're 641 00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:15,160 Speaker 1: taking politics this seriously and you're ending friendships that you've 642 00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:17,560 Speaker 1: had for years. Although Bill Maher says he doesn't know 643 00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:21,640 Speaker 1: Jimmy Kimball that well. But a lot of people listening 644 00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:24,279 Speaker 1: to me have had friendships that have ended that have 645 00:48:24,360 --> 00:48:28,680 Speaker 1: lasted for decades because of Donald Trump.

Thank you so much. Now, 702 00:51:57,480 --> 00:52:02,160 Speaker 1: this one drives me crazy, idea that just Republicans are 703 00:52:02,200 --> 00:52:05,520 Speaker 1: the ones who quote deny elections one fifteen. 704 00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:10,960 Speaker 4: Imagine yourself ever voting Republicans. 705 00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:13,319 Speaker 8: Of course, you know, but they would have to be 706 00:52:13,480 --> 00:52:16,040 Speaker 8: very different. I mean, they would have to certainly lose 707 00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:19,279 Speaker 8: the idea of we don't concede elections. 708 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:24,160 Speaker 1: That have to lose the idea of we don't concede elections. 709 00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:34,440 Speaker 1: Every election presidential election since two thousand one by Republicans, 710 00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:40,560 Speaker 1: Democrats have attacked the electoral process and try to decertify 711 00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:47,120 Speaker 1: certain states. Two thousand, Supreme Court five to four stops 712 00:52:47,160 --> 00:52:53,280 Speaker 1: the Florida count January following gear during the certification procedure, 713 00:52:54,840 --> 00:53:01,879 Speaker 1: roughly ten House Democrats try to decertify Flora, which gave 714 00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:05,760 Speaker 1: the race to George W. Bush, claiming that the Supreme 715 00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:10,600 Speaker 1: Court unlawfully stopped the count. To this day, al Gore 716 00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:13,840 Speaker 1: says had the Supreme Court not intervened, he would have 717 00:53:13,880 --> 00:53:18,120 Speaker 1: won that election. Studies have shown that's not the case, 718 00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:25,640 Speaker 1: but he still claims he was cheated. Fast forward two 719 00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:29,680 Speaker 1: thousand and four election, George W. Bush wins Ohio, without 720 00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:33,680 Speaker 1: which he would not have been reelected. That following January, 721 00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:38,480 Speaker 1: thirty House Democrats and the then Senator from California Barbara 722 00:53:38,520 --> 00:53:43,640 Speaker 1: Boxer try to decertify Ohio, claiming that the de bowled 723 00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:47,799 Speaker 1: voting machines have been tampered with, without which George W. 724 00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:56,319 Speaker 1: Bush would not have won Ohio. One of those who 725 00:53:56,520 --> 00:54:01,080 Speaker 1: joined that effort, by the way, was Benny Thompson. Minnie 726 00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:05,440 Speaker 1: Thompson is a chairman of the so called January sixth Committee, 727 00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:09,280 Speaker 1: claiming that Donald Trump had engaged in insurrection on January 728 00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:17,439 Speaker 1: sixth insurrection, So in two thousand four was he an 729 00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:25,800 Speaker 1: insurrectionist because he tried to desertify Ohio twenty sixteen election, 730 00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:33,560 Speaker 1: Democrats challenged more states nine than Trump did four years later, 731 00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:36,760 Speaker 1: And of course Hillary ran around for the four years 732 00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:39,879 Speaker 1: of Trump's first term referring to him as illegitimate, claiming 733 00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:43,040 Speaker 1: the election had been stolen. Did anybody accuse her of 734 00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:46,840 Speaker 1: being an election denier, of threatening the foundations of our republic? 735 00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:47,000 Speaker 11: No? 736 00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:54,960 Speaker 1: Stacy Abrams of course claim that because of voter suppression 737 00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:59,680 Speaker 1: she lost her gubernatorial election in Georgia. Fact check organization 738 00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:03,320 Speaker 1: found no evidence of it. Anybody call her an election denier? 739 00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:10,920 Speaker 1: Jimmy Carter said he believes the Russians put Donald Trump 740 00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:14,759 Speaker 1: in office in the twenty sixteen election and we talked 741 00:55:14,760 --> 00:55:19,879 Speaker 1: about this a bunch of times. J Johnson, Obama's DHS secretary, 742 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:22,520 Speaker 1: said the Russians tried to change vote tallies in the 743 00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:29,000 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen election, but they failed to change a single one. However, 744 00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:33,200 Speaker 1: a UGUV poll found sixty six percent of Democrats believe 745 00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:36,279 Speaker 1: the Russians quote changed vote tallies close quote in order 746 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 1: for Donald Trump to win the twenty sixteen election, even 747 00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:42,640 Speaker 1: though Obama's DHS Secretary secretary testified under oath that that 748 00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:46,440 Speaker 1: was not the case two years earlier. I guess Democrats 749 00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:50,239 Speaker 1: didn't get the memo in regarding whether or not the 750 00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:54,120 Speaker 1: Russian interference, and there was interference, altered the outcome of 751 00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:57,919 Speaker 1: the election. Jay Johnson said he does not know. He'd 752 00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:00,319 Speaker 1: have to have a world where there was interference versus 753 00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:02,000 Speaker 1: one where there wasn't compared the twos, So if we 754 00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:08,000 Speaker 1: can't do that, it would just be speculation. I don't know. However, 755 00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:11,920 Speaker 1: a Gallup poll found that seventy eight percent of Democrats 756 00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:23,080 Speaker 1: believe the Russian interference altered the outcome of election. CNN 757 00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:29,960 Speaker 1: did a report. It found out that seventy six percent 758 00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:37,320 Speaker 1: of Republicans believed that there was widespread fraud in twenty 759 00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:45,279 Speaker 1: twenty seventy six percent. So a lower percentage of Republicans 760 00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:53,680 Speaker 1: believe twenty twenty involve widespread voter fraud, then Democrats believe 761 00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:59,880 Speaker 1: that about twenty sixteen? Do we call Democrats voter deny? 762 00:57:01,239 --> 00:57:03,120 Speaker 1: So when I hear Bill Maher say, well, if I 763 00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:05,319 Speaker 1: old Republican, they're gonna have to stop this business about 764 00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 1: not conceding elections. Did you feel that way about Hillary? 765 00:57:10,239 --> 00:57:13,160 Speaker 1: Do you feel that way about what Jimmy Carter said? 766 00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:16,760 Speaker 1: You feel that way about sixty six percent of Democrats 767 00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:21,680 Speaker 1: that believe the Russians altered vote tallies when the DHS 768 00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:24,840 Speaker 1: secretary under Obama said they didn't alter a single one. 769 00:57:27,080 --> 00:57:29,760 Speaker 1: You feel that way when a greater percentage of Democrats 770 00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:34,280 Speaker 1: believed that was voter fraud in twenty twenty, then Republicans 771 00:57:34,280 --> 00:57:37,040 Speaker 1: feel about in twenty sixteen the Republicans feel about twenty twenty. 772 00:57:38,040 --> 00:57:41,600 Speaker 1: Why is it when Republicans expressed skepticism about an election, 773 00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:46,240 Speaker 1: they're called election deniers, accused of attacking our republic when 774 00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:50,600 Speaker 1: Democrats do it well, And the response is, well, Democrats 775 00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:55,240 Speaker 1: didn't storm the Capitol Building on January six, it's because 776 00:57:55,240 --> 00:57:58,240 Speaker 1: Democrats weren't in office, But don't tell me that Democrat 777 00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:03,360 Speaker 1: voters were not violent. Trump wins in November twenty sixteen, 778 00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:09,720 Speaker 1: there were protests all over America, including some violent. So 779 00:58:11,560 --> 00:58:14,640 Speaker 1: just a bit of a double standard, mister Moore. Hypocrisy, 780 00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:19,320 Speaker 1: selective outrage. Triple eight nine seven one sage, let's talk 781 00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:31,920 Speaker 1: about Oldkare Obamacare triple late nine seven one sage, triple 782 00:58:31,960 --> 00:58:33,960 Speaker 1: eight nine seven one seven two four to three. A 783 00:58:34,040 --> 00:58:39,440 Speaker 1: new GAO report Government Accounting Office ordered by the Republicans. 784 00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:43,000 Speaker 1: By the way, if the Democrats had taken control of 785 00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:44,920 Speaker 1: the House, you think to be a report on fraud 786 00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:49,880 Speaker 1: and Obamacare, estimated to be twenty seven billion dollars a year. 787 00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:53,720 Speaker 1: Berndie Sanders says he's not a great supporter of Obamacare. 788 00:58:54,360 --> 00:58:56,200 Speaker 1: And the reason he's not a great support of Obamacare 789 00:58:56,200 --> 00:58:58,160 Speaker 1: is because he wants there to be a quote unquote 790 00:58:58,160 --> 00:59:00,880 Speaker 1: public option, in other words, seeing a payer one O 791 00:59:01,000 --> 00:59:03,960 Speaker 1: two one three. 792 00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:04,240 Speaker 12: Yeah. 793 00:59:04,240 --> 00:59:07,600 Speaker 13: But he's a fraud. Yeah, but he's a fraud. That's 794 00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:11,440 Speaker 13: what he says. Now, what's there, Well, mister Trump may 795 00:59:11,520 --> 00:59:15,479 Speaker 13: have to explain to them why their prices are going 796 00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:17,840 Speaker 13: down when they're going to see a doubling in their premiums. 797 00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:21,280 Speaker 13: The reality is it is a disaster, uh, and it's 798 00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:24,680 Speaker 13: just another indication of the failure of our healthcare system. Look, 799 00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:27,040 Speaker 13: my own view is I am not a great supporter 800 00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:30,760 Speaker 13: of the Affordable Care Act, but I think we've got 801 00:59:30,800 --> 00:59:37,200 Speaker 13: to extend the tax credits because you cannot allow millions 802 00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:41,560 Speaker 13: of people are to see huge increases in their premiums. 803 00:59:41,680 --> 00:59:44,320 Speaker 13: But if we are able to do that, and I 804 00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:46,240 Speaker 13: suspect that you're right that we're not going to be 805 00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:48,880 Speaker 13: able to do that, we need to take the time 806 00:59:49,520 --> 00:59:53,240 Speaker 13: to ask ourselves a very simple question, why are we 807 00:59:53,320 --> 00:59:58,360 Speaker 13: spending twice as much per capita on healthcare as the 808 00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:01,640 Speaker 13: people of any other major country, all of whom managed 809 01:00:01,680 --> 01:00:04,919 Speaker 13: to provide healthcare all of their people as a right. 810 01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:09,160 Speaker 13: And the answer is, our current healthcare system is dominated 811 01:00:09,320 --> 01:00:12,520 Speaker 13: by the insurance companies and drug companies. They want more 812 01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:16,240 Speaker 13: and more money and profits. It is succeeding for them. 813 01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:20,040 Speaker 13: We need to expand Medicare, guarantee healthcare every man, woman, 814 01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:22,080 Speaker 13: and child. We can do that in a course of 815 01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:22,840 Speaker 13: effective way. 816 01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:26,320 Speaker 1: And you see, that's the kind of logic that causes 817 01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:28,280 Speaker 1: that we've talked about in the first hour of the show, 818 01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:33,320 Speaker 1: fifty one percent of likely voters under the age of 819 01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:37,000 Speaker 1: forty to want a Democrat socialist like Bernie Sanders to 820 01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:40,920 Speaker 1: become president. It would never cur to somebody like that 821 01:00:40,920 --> 01:00:44,280 Speaker 1: that all the problems he's talking about are because of 822 01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:49,120 Speaker 1: government involvement and health care. In the first place, here 823 01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:52,440 Speaker 1: is the late great Milton Friedman ninety seven. 824 01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:55,720 Speaker 4: I'm going to talk about the economics and medical care. 825 01:00:57,320 --> 01:00:59,880 Speaker 14: This is an area in which, as we all know, 826 01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:04,000 Speaker 14: there has been a trend toward ever greater government involvement. 827 01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:09,880 Speaker 14: The spending for the provision of medical care inevitably leads 828 01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:12,720 Speaker 14: to control over the fees that are charged. 829 01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:15,560 Speaker 4: For medical care, and it should if. 830 01:01:15,440 --> 01:01:17,400 Speaker 14: Government is going to spend money and ought to be 831 01:01:17,440 --> 01:01:20,720 Speaker 14: concerned with what it pays for what it gets. Control 832 01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:26,480 Speaker 14: over fees inevitably leads to control over the practices that 833 01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:34,120 Speaker 14: are followed, over the behavior of the medical personnel, and 834 01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:40,320 Speaker 14: if this trend continues, in inevitably leads to completely socialized medicine. 835 01:01:40,720 --> 01:01:45,080 Speaker 14: I believe that this trend, including many of the steps 836 01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:48,560 Speaker 14: that have already been taken, is very much against the 837 01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:54,680 Speaker 14: interests of patience, of physicians and of other healthcare personnel, 838 01:01:55,400 --> 01:01:58,080 Speaker 14: and in the brief time I have available today, I 839 01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:02,680 Speaker 14: want to explain why believe the trend is so much 840 01:02:02,720 --> 01:02:06,240 Speaker 14: against their interests, why it has occurred, and what, if anything, 841 01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:12,040 Speaker 14: can be done about it. The toward increasing government involvement 842 01:02:12,080 --> 01:02:14,840 Speaker 14: in healthcare is not an isolated phenomenon. 843 01:02:14,880 --> 01:02:16,520 Speaker 4: It is not restricted to healthcare. 844 01:02:17,400 --> 01:02:20,480 Speaker 14: It is part of a general trend in our society 845 01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:27,800 Speaker 14: toward replacing voluntary free market arrangements by government control and regulation. 846 01:02:28,400 --> 01:02:30,640 Speaker 14: It is a trend that is happening, happening all over 847 01:02:31,120 --> 01:02:34,440 Speaker 14: It has happened in one industry after another. There is 848 01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:41,280 Speaker 14: nothing special in this respect about the move to replacing private, 849 01:02:41,560 --> 01:02:47,880 Speaker 14: voluntary medical arrangements with compulsory governmental arrangements. This movement in 850 01:02:47,960 --> 01:02:50,720 Speaker 14: the medical care field is not special in another sense. 851 01:02:52,560 --> 01:02:58,360 Speaker 14: In industry after industry producers who protest most strongly their 852 01:02:58,400 --> 01:03:05,280 Speaker 14: belief in free markets have fostered and help produced government takeover, 853 01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:06,760 Speaker 14: government regulation. 854 01:03:07,280 --> 01:03:08,200 Speaker 4: Government control. 855 01:03:10,720 --> 01:03:16,480 Speaker 14: To begin with, a greater involvement of government in medicine 856 01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:20,600 Speaker 14: may seem to serve the interest of at least the 857 01:03:20,680 --> 01:03:25,360 Speaker 14: purveyors of medical care by providing an additional source of finance. 858 01:03:26,880 --> 01:03:31,920 Speaker 14: This is a hunting that has leded persons and industry 859 01:03:31,960 --> 01:03:39,200 Speaker 14: after industry to support and promote governmental involvement which has 860 01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:42,920 Speaker 14: reacted ultimately against I have been impressed. 861 01:03:42,960 --> 01:03:47,160 Speaker 1: We will finish the thoughts about health care from Nobel 862 01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:49,560 Speaker 1: Laureate Milton Freeman. On the other side, stick around Triple 863 01:03:49,560 --> 01:03:52,240 Speaker 1: eight nine seven one seven two four three Larry Older, 864 01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:05,880 Speaker 1: Tripleate Night seven one seven two three, Tripleate Night seven 865 01:04:05,920 --> 01:04:08,600 Speaker 1: one seven two four to three Larry Old Stale News Channel. 866 01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:10,920 Speaker 1: And we're brought to you by the Relief Factor Studio 867 01:04:11,320 --> 01:04:14,000 Speaker 1: eight hundred four Relief eight hundred four Relief, Relief Factor 868 01:04:14,080 --> 01:04:17,640 Speaker 1: dot Com, Relief Relief Factor dot Com. Back to Milton Friedman. 869 01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:23,680 Speaker 14: Governmental involvement which has reacted ultimately against them. I have 870 01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:29,120 Speaker 14: been impressed again and again with how often businessmen leaders 871 01:04:29,160 --> 01:04:32,520 Speaker 14: in various areas, who are very foresighted when it. 872 01:04:32,440 --> 01:04:34,120 Speaker 4: Comes to their own activities and to. 873 01:04:34,320 --> 01:04:37,680 Speaker 14: Concerns within their enterpriduses, are very short sighted when it 874 01:04:37,720 --> 01:04:40,960 Speaker 14: comes to the area of public policy and allow themselves 875 01:04:40,960 --> 01:04:46,600 Speaker 14: to be led by small advantages to foster and favor 876 01:04:46,640 --> 01:04:50,080 Speaker 14: policies which ultimately redown very much to their disadvantage. 877 01:04:51,680 --> 01:04:57,160 Speaker 4: In the medical case, the initial inducement. 878 01:04:56,680 --> 01:04:58,760 Speaker 14: Is that here is a new source of money, and 879 01:04:58,840 --> 01:05:04,440 Speaker 14: presumably This is one organized medicine has been schizophrenic about 880 01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:08,680 Speaker 14: the trend toward government involvement. It has, on the one hand, 881 01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:12,800 Speaker 14: tended to protest against the move towards socialized medicine. It has, 882 01:05:12,840 --> 01:05:16,840 Speaker 14: on the other hand, engaged in activities which have promoted 883 01:05:17,480 --> 01:05:18,240 Speaker 14: that development. 884 01:05:20,360 --> 01:05:21,080 Speaker 4: As the one. 885 01:05:21,160 --> 01:05:24,000 Speaker 14: The government is taking over any activity, there is more 886 01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:24,840 Speaker 14: money available. 887 01:05:25,680 --> 01:05:27,360 Speaker 4: But what typically happens. 888 01:05:27,040 --> 01:05:30,880 Speaker 14: Is once the government has taken it over, the situation changes. 889 01:05:31,600 --> 01:05:33,640 Speaker 14: There are no more votes to be gotten by taking 890 01:05:33,640 --> 01:05:36,400 Speaker 14: it over some more. You have to move on to 891 01:05:36,520 --> 01:05:38,760 Speaker 14: new fields and take over new areas in order to 892 01:05:38,760 --> 01:05:41,400 Speaker 14: get some new votes, and the result of that is 893 01:05:41,440 --> 01:05:45,080 Speaker 14: that those areas already taken over get starved, and instead 894 01:05:45,080 --> 01:05:48,840 Speaker 14: of there being more resources available, there are fewer. In 895 01:05:48,880 --> 01:05:51,840 Speaker 14: addition to the fact that the ultimate result of a 896 01:05:51,880 --> 01:05:58,160 Speaker 14: government takeover is less resources, you invariably get lower quality 897 01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:02,160 Speaker 14: in a lower quantity of medical care. I am going 898 01:06:02,200 --> 01:06:04,240 Speaker 14: to cite from a study that was made by a 899 01:06:04,400 --> 01:06:08,640 Speaker 14: British physician, doctor Max Gammon, who spent five years studying 900 01:06:09,320 --> 01:06:14,439 Speaker 14: the British Health Service. Mister Gannon, in a rather amusing way, 901 01:06:14,520 --> 01:06:18,440 Speaker 14: developed what he called a theory of bureaucratic displacement. 902 01:06:18,760 --> 01:06:23,080 Speaker 4: He argued that whenever you have any organization taken over by. 903 01:06:22,960 --> 01:06:27,240 Speaker 14: A bureaucracy like a government, what tends to happen is 904 01:06:27,280 --> 01:06:30,200 Speaker 14: that input goes up and output goes down. 905 01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:33,680 Speaker 4: That useless work tends to displace useful work. 906 01:06:33,720 --> 01:06:38,200 Speaker 14: In a further extension of Parkinson's laws, and he illustrated 907 01:06:38,200 --> 01:06:41,840 Speaker 14: it with hospital service in the United Kingdom. He took 908 01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:44,800 Speaker 14: the eight year period from nineteen sixty five to nineteen 909 01:06:44,880 --> 01:06:49,280 Speaker 14: seventy three. In that eight year period, the hospital staff 910 01:06:49,560 --> 01:06:54,160 Speaker 14: the number of people went up twenty eight percent. Incidentally, 911 01:06:54,640 --> 01:06:57,560 Speaker 14: administrative and clerical help went up forty one percent. 912 01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:02,760 Speaker 4: But what about out what about what they were producing? 913 01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:05,280 Speaker 4: Input was up? Well. 914 01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:10,000 Speaker 14: He measured output by the average number of beds occupied daily. 915 01:07:11,120 --> 01:07:13,640 Speaker 14: It turned out that the average number of beds occupied 916 01:07:13,720 --> 01:07:18,480 Speaker 14: daily went down by eleven percent, and he hastened to 917 01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:22,320 Speaker 14: go on to explain that the decline in the average 918 01:07:22,400 --> 01:07:25,080 Speaker 14: number of beds occupied was not for want of patience, 919 01:07:25,920 --> 01:07:28,800 Speaker 14: that at all times there was a waiting list in 920 01:07:28,880 --> 01:07:33,880 Speaker 14: the neighborhood of six hundred thousand people waiting for hospital beds. 921 01:07:34,560 --> 01:07:36,760 Speaker 14: I don't know how many of you know the scandals 922 01:07:36,800 --> 01:07:42,800 Speaker 14: in Britain about the waiting period for what is regarded 923 01:07:42,840 --> 01:07:48,760 Speaker 14: as optional or postponable surgery, including for example, bypass operations 924 01:07:48,800 --> 01:07:53,080 Speaker 14: for heart problems. There are stories of people who waited 925 01:07:53,120 --> 01:07:56,120 Speaker 14: three years to have a bypass operation because that could 926 01:07:56,120 --> 01:08:00,720 Speaker 14: be postponed. Indeed, some of them managed to before the 927 01:08:00,800 --> 01:08:07,680 Speaker 14: operation was performed. But six hundred thousand people waiting on 928 01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:13,080 Speaker 14: the waiting list, and for rather more readily more obviously 929 01:08:13,120 --> 01:08:17,080 Speaker 14: postponable operations, the wait may be much longer than three years. 930 01:08:17,800 --> 01:08:21,719 Speaker 14: Let me turn to Sweden. I quote from a report 931 01:08:21,760 --> 01:08:26,680 Speaker 14: by doctor Gunnar b. Yorke in Minnesota. I should be 932 01:08:26,680 --> 01:08:30,400 Speaker 14: able to pronounce a Swedish name, but it takes more 933 01:08:30,479 --> 01:08:36,280 Speaker 14: than physical connection. He's a professor of medicine at the 934 01:08:36,360 --> 01:08:39,839 Speaker 14: Karolinska Institute. He's a head of the department of medicine 935 01:08:39,840 --> 01:08:43,479 Speaker 14: at a major hospital in Stockholm. He formerly was, and 936 01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:46,000 Speaker 14: maybe still is, a physician to the King of Sweden. 937 01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:49,920 Speaker 14: He gave a repaper in nineteen seventy six at the 938 01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:53,439 Speaker 14: University of Chicago. Unquote how to be a clinician in 939 01:08:53,479 --> 01:08:54,559 Speaker 14: a socialist country? 940 01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:56,840 Speaker 4: And I quote from his papers. 941 01:08:57,479 --> 01:09:00,719 Speaker 14: It is obvious that the existence of a competing free 942 01:09:00,760 --> 01:09:04,600 Speaker 14: market constitutes a continuous threat to the operation of a 943 01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:10,200 Speaker 14: socialist public service, however heavily subsidized by taxpayer's money. The 944 01:09:10,280 --> 01:09:14,519 Speaker 14: element of quality that derives from patients personal preference for 945 01:09:14,720 --> 01:09:19,040 Speaker 14: and confidence in certain doctors cannot easily be done away 946 01:09:19,080 --> 01:09:21,920 Speaker 14: with so long as people are willing to pay for 947 01:09:21,960 --> 01:09:25,559 Speaker 14: a free choice of physicians. To do away with such 948 01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:30,800 Speaker 14: opportunities therefore has become a new goal of Swedish healthcare politicians. 949 01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:36,160 Speaker 14: The introduction of these various regulatory processes has resulted in 950 01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:40,320 Speaker 14: a cancerous growth in the numbers of medical administrators at 951 01:09:40,360 --> 01:09:46,720 Speaker 14: all levels of incompetence. The Board of Welfare I go 952 01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:50,400 Speaker 14: on Quoting has recently issued a sixty page book trying 953 01:09:50,439 --> 01:09:54,479 Speaker 14: to describe how to calculate the number of physicians needed 954 01:09:54,720 --> 01:09:57,719 Speaker 14: to cover the necessary staff of any one clinical department. 955 01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:02,920 Speaker 14: The book is a fascinating monument over the total absurdity 956 01:10:03,080 --> 01:10:07,800 Speaker 14: into which legislat, tours, administrators and trade union representatives have 957 01:10:07,920 --> 01:10:14,519 Speaker 14: finally brought a previously simple and efficient machinery. The setting 958 01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:17,479 Speaker 14: in which medicine has been practiced during thousands of years 959 01:10:18,120 --> 01:10:20,120 Speaker 14: has been one in which the patient has been the 960 01:10:20,160 --> 01:10:24,320 Speaker 14: client and employer of the physician. Today, the state in 961 01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:27,280 Speaker 14: one manifestation or the other claims to be the employer 962 01:10:28,280 --> 01:10:31,160 Speaker 14: and thus the one to prescribe the conditions under which 963 01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:34,680 Speaker 14: the physician has to carry out his work. These conditions 964 01:10:34,720 --> 01:10:40,760 Speaker 14: may not and will eventually not be restricted to working hours, salaries, 965 01:10:40,760 --> 01:10:44,640 Speaker 14: and certified drugs. They may invade the whole territory of 966 01:10:44,680 --> 01:10:48,519 Speaker 14: the patient's physician relationship. If the battle of today is 967 01:10:48,560 --> 01:10:51,360 Speaker 14: not fought, and not one, there will be no battle 968 01:10:51,439 --> 01:10:52,040 Speaker 14: to fight on. 969 01:10:53,160 --> 01:10:59,439 Speaker 1: And what the Democrats want is not even Obamacare, which 970 01:10:59,479 --> 01:11:04,000 Speaker 1: they admit has not worked. Senator from Vermont Democrat said 971 01:11:04,040 --> 01:11:08,160 Speaker 1: Obamacare failed to control costs. What they want is single payer, 972 01:11:08,240 --> 01:11:10,960 Speaker 1: which will make things, as Milton Freeman just now said, 973 01:11:11,360 --> 01:11:17,320 Speaker 1: much much worse, the Antwerp free market, more competition, fee 974 01:11:17,360 --> 01:11:20,400 Speaker 1: for services, and even Republicans are not talking about that 975 01:11:20,439 --> 01:11:26,960 Speaker 1: other than Ran Paul. Now, so many people are living 976 01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:30,320 Speaker 1: with everyday pain and they think they're just stuck with it. 977 01:11:30,320 --> 01:11:33,680 Speaker 1: It is what it is, but it doesn't have to be. 978 01:11:34,280 --> 01:11:36,400 Speaker 1: Let me tell you about George from Oregon and his 979 01:11:36,560 --> 01:11:40,360 Speaker 1: relief Factor story. George is a hard working guy, spends 980 01:11:40,400 --> 01:11:42,760 Speaker 1: ten hours a day in a garbage truck. It's a 981 01:11:42,800 --> 01:11:45,559 Speaker 1: tough job made even tougher because he was dealing with 982 01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:49,599 Speaker 1: a sore right knee that just wouldn't ben. Now here's 983 01:11:49,600 --> 01:11:53,080 Speaker 1: the amazing part. George started taking relief Factor and it 984 01:11:53,200 --> 01:11:56,800 Speaker 1: changed his life.

But 1047 01:15:12,920 --> 01:15:18,200 Speaker 10: for one million percent, he never specismically said people who 1048 01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:21,200 Speaker 10: commit crimes.

You reminded me though, of a 1126 01:19:53,760 --> 01:19:59,240 Speaker 1: story Rubin you mentioned. Rosie was an Englewood cop and 1127 01:19:59,320 --> 01:20:02,280 Speaker 1: also did a lot of character acting, and he and 1128 01:20:02,280 --> 01:20:05,960 Speaker 1: I became very good friends. He is no longer with us, 1129 01:20:06,880 --> 01:20:09,920 Speaker 1: and I knew I was having a connection because when 1130 01:20:10,000 --> 01:20:13,720 Speaker 1: Rosie would arrest young people, he'd often give them a 1131 01:20:13,800 --> 01:20:16,559 Speaker 1: lecture and try to tell them to straighten up and 1132 01:20:16,600 --> 01:20:18,439 Speaker 1: what the consequences are going to be if they don't. 1133 01:20:20,040 --> 01:20:23,960 Speaker 1: So he was lecturing some teenager about hard work and accountability, 1134 01:20:24,800 --> 01:20:27,519 Speaker 1: and he said the teenager said to him, that sounds 1135 01:20:27,560 --> 01:20:30,080 Speaker 1: like some of that Larry Elder bleep, except he didn't 1136 01:20:30,160 --> 01:20:36,000 Speaker 1: use the word bleep. So I'm not quite sure that's 1137 01:20:36,000 --> 01:20:38,559 Speaker 1: the reaction that I wanted. But at least people were 1138 01:20:38,560 --> 01:20:40,960 Speaker 1: aware of the kind of thing that I was talking about. Anyway, 1139 01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:42,439 Speaker 1: Thank you very much for the call, and we'll take 1140 01:20:42,439 --> 01:20:47,200 Speaker 1: care of that.

And I mean, you're 1146 01:21:09,720 --> 01:21:13,400 Speaker 17: watching what's going on in Canada with those socialized medicine, 1147 01:21:13,400 --> 01:21:16,400 Speaker 17: are you? Is anybody listening to the Glenn Beck program. 1148 01:21:16,680 --> 01:21:19,240 Speaker 17: We're trying to bring us thirty plus year old woman 1149 01:21:19,439 --> 01:21:22,960 Speaker 17: down here so she can have surgery to keep her 1150 01:21:23,040 --> 01:21:27,240 Speaker 17: life because they've offered her use in Asia on January seventh, 1151 01:21:27,439 --> 01:21:30,400 Speaker 17: as opposed to having surgery that would save her life. 1152 01:21:30,800 --> 01:21:35,120 Speaker 17: I mean, this is what our country is introducing. And 1153 01:21:35,439 --> 01:21:37,920 Speaker 17: I take care of people every weekend. I have to 1154 01:21:37,960 --> 01:21:42,400 Speaker 17: have one hundred and twenty interpreters in my little interpreter 1155 01:21:42,520 --> 01:21:45,680 Speaker 17: thing to take care of all these illegal immigrants. And 1156 01:21:47,320 --> 01:21:52,639 Speaker 17: our country we are at Our healthcare system is totally 1157 01:21:52,680 --> 01:21:57,360 Speaker 17: at risk, and there's as opposed to all the fraud 1158 01:21:57,439 --> 01:22:00,599 Speaker 17: in the country. It's going on in the healthcare system. 1159 01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:04,320 Speaker 17: We have people that are waiting for hours and hours 1160 01:22:04,320 --> 01:22:07,640 Speaker 17: and days to get surgery. But we know if we 1161 01:22:08,080 --> 01:22:11,360 Speaker 17: put the illegal immigrant ahead of them, their bill is 1162 01:22:11,360 --> 01:22:13,599 Speaker 17: going to get paid. I mean, and we'll just say 1163 01:22:13,640 --> 01:22:18,080 Speaker 17: we'll send you a bill. And I'm telling you, the 1164 01:22:18,160 --> 01:22:22,040 Speaker 17: system is so corrupt and our veterans, our veterans are 1165 01:22:22,080 --> 01:22:27,280 Speaker 17: being so ignored and put aside, and that is such 1166 01:22:27,320 --> 01:22:30,400 Speaker 17: a shame. It is so shameful. And if you go 1167 01:22:30,520 --> 01:22:33,840 Speaker 17: to the veteran hospital, you wait four hours on a prescription, 1168 01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:38,799 Speaker 17: no wonder, there's an officer sitting in the lobby waiting 1169 01:22:38,840 --> 01:22:41,680 Speaker 17: for somebody to act out because there's PTSD And you 1170 01:22:41,760 --> 01:22:44,760 Speaker 17: come back four hours later and the prescription is still wrong, 1171 01:22:45,080 --> 01:22:48,600 Speaker 17: and they're not available after hours on weekends or holidays. 1172 01:22:49,040 --> 01:22:51,639 Speaker 17: I mean, those veterans should be able to get their 1173 01:22:51,720 --> 01:22:56,200 Speaker 17: care anyway. They show up and they need a toothpold, 1174 01:22:56,280 --> 01:22:58,400 Speaker 17: or they need a tooth filled. You go in, you 1175 01:22:58,479 --> 01:23:00,479 Speaker 17: show up, Oh well you're not active, do so we 1176 01:23:00,479 --> 01:23:03,400 Speaker 17: can't take care of your dental needs. I mean, this 1177 01:23:03,479 --> 01:23:07,720 Speaker 17: is ridiculous. Our veterans should have access to everything they 1178 01:23:07,760 --> 01:23:12,000 Speaker 17: possibly need. I mean, I'm telling you. The healthcare system 1179 01:23:12,120 --> 01:23:16,240 Speaker 17: is so corrupt, and our CEOs in these hospitals, they 1180 01:23:16,240 --> 01:23:20,360 Speaker 17: have several houses, several cars, and they know that the 1181 01:23:20,400 --> 01:23:22,840 Speaker 17: bills are getting paid by the government for all these 1182 01:23:22,920 --> 01:23:27,200 Speaker 17: illegal aliens. And I send people home with paperwork. Oh, 1183 01:23:27,320 --> 01:23:30,080 Speaker 17: we'll send you a bill, We'll give you free prescriptions, 1184 01:23:30,120 --> 01:23:32,720 Speaker 17: we'll send you anything you need. You know, thank you 1185 01:23:32,800 --> 01:23:37,799 Speaker 17: for coming, you know. I mean, the system is so corrupt, 1186 01:23:38,240 --> 01:23:40,600 Speaker 17: and of all the things that are going on in 1187 01:23:40,640 --> 01:23:44,040 Speaker 17: this government, our healthcare is the most fraudulent of all 1188 01:23:44,080 --> 01:23:44,280 Speaker 17: of it. 1189 01:23:44,720 --> 01:23:48,679 Speaker 1: Well, Melanie, thank you very much for that. I appreciate it. Look, 1190 01:23:48,760 --> 01:23:50,519 Speaker 1: this is a study that was just done by the 1191 01:23:50,560 --> 01:23:55,400 Speaker 1: Government Accounting Office. Twenty seven billion dollars a year and 1192 01:23:55,520 --> 01:23:59,000 Speaker 1: fraudulent payments because of Obamacare. And here's what they did. 1193 01:24:00,080 --> 01:24:03,880 Speaker 1: Created fake applicants. They created twenty fake applicants to apply. 1194 01:24:05,160 --> 01:24:10,880 Speaker 1: Out of those twenty fake applicants, eighteen of them received benefits. 1195 01:24:13,200 --> 01:24:16,639 Speaker 1: They did it again last year and one hundred percent 1196 01:24:16,680 --> 01:24:20,759 Speaker 1: of the fake applicants receive benefits. Now, this is when 1197 01:24:21,000 --> 01:24:25,439 Speaker 1: these people are applying with no documents or fake documents, 1198 01:24:25,760 --> 01:24:38,200 Speaker 1: fake citizen documents, illegal immigrants applying in one case, one 1199 01:24:38,600 --> 01:24:41,680 Speaker 1: Social Security number. The same number was used for over 1200 01:24:41,680 --> 01:24:43,680 Speaker 1: a one hundred and twenty five policy. Let me say 1201 01:24:43,680 --> 01:24:48,720 Speaker 1: that again, a single Social Security number was used for 1202 01:24:48,720 --> 01:24:52,559 Speaker 1: over one hundred and twenty five policies. Nobody did anything. 1203 01:24:54,640 --> 01:24:59,400 Speaker 1: So again, there were twenty fake applicants that were created 1204 01:25:00,280 --> 01:25:09,040 Speaker 1: applying for suppedized coverage and the Center for Medicare and 1205 01:25:09,120 --> 01:25:15,640 Speaker 1: Medicaid paid off. And what they want to do, the Democrats, 1206 01:25:16,320 --> 01:25:19,880 Speaker 1: they want to keep it going. And I said this yesterday, 1207 01:25:20,560 --> 01:25:23,880 Speaker 1: the same people that cheered when the CEO was murdered 1208 01:25:23,880 --> 01:25:29,040 Speaker 1: by Luigi MANNGIONI. Why because he believes that healthcare insurance 1209 01:25:29,040 --> 01:25:36,000 Speaker 1: companies like United Healthcare are greedy. So what does Chuck 1210 01:25:36,000 --> 01:25:40,120 Speaker 1: Schumer want to do? Continue paying the same suppidies to 1211 01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:45,120 Speaker 1: the same insurance companies for three more years. So you're 1212 01:25:45,200 --> 01:25:48,200 Speaker 1: cheering the assassination of a CEO of a health insurance 1213 01:25:48,200 --> 01:25:51,439 Speaker 1: company because a company is greedy, and the reason that 1214 01:25:51,479 --> 01:25:53,720 Speaker 1: their stock has appreciated to the extent that they have 1215 01:25:54,280 --> 01:25:57,439 Speaker 1: because of all the subpodies that you want to continue 1216 01:25:57,680 --> 01:26:00,599 Speaker 1: to the same greedy company that you were upset with 1217 01:26:01,400 --> 01:26:07,080 Speaker 1: when Luigi Mangione murdered the CEO. Does this make any 1218 01:26:07,160 --> 01:26:11,960 Speaker 1: sense in the answer of course, its government should get 1219 01:26:12,000 --> 01:26:16,880 Speaker 1: out of health care, whether it's Medicaid or medicare, all together, 1220 01:26:17,439 --> 01:26:22,960 Speaker 1: all together, obviously more fraud and more abuse and more waste. 1221 01:26:23,080 --> 01:26:26,240 Speaker 1: When it's not your money. When it's somebody else's money 1222 01:26:26,400 --> 01:26:33,160 Speaker 1: on somebody else, you attract substantial amount of fraud. Private 1223 01:26:33,200 --> 01:26:39,679 Speaker 1: sector whole different ballgame. But the left believes that healthcare 1224 01:26:39,760 --> 01:26:42,559 Speaker 1: is a right and that economic one on one economics 1225 01:26:42,560 --> 01:26:46,040 Speaker 1: one on one do not apply to healthcare. This is 1226 01:26:46,040 --> 01:26:51,160 Speaker 1: where we are. Fifty percent of likely voters under forty 1227 01:26:51,200 --> 01:26:54,160 Speaker 1: want a Democrat socialist to be president. Are you kidding me? 1228 01:26:54,640 --> 01:26:55,400 Speaker 1: I'm Larry Yelder. 1229 01:26:58,680 --> 01:27:04,160 Speaker 18: Fails to extend the town credits. It increases costs, adds 1230 01:27:04,240 --> 01:27:09,120 Speaker 18: tons of new abortion restrictions for women, expands junk fees, 1231 01:27:09,800 --> 01:27:17,720 Speaker 18: and permanently funds cost sharing reductions. Their bill is junk insurance. 1232 01:27:18,320 --> 01:27:22,280 Speaker 18: It's been repudiated in the past. The American people will 1233 01:27:22,280 --> 01:27:29,240 Speaker 18: repudiate it once again because it is junk insurance that 1234 01:27:29,320 --> 01:27:32,600 Speaker 18: puts the burden on people. We should call it what 1235 01:27:32,720 --> 01:27:38,519 Speaker 18: it is. Misdirection, smoke in mirrors, the cover up. Blocking 1236 01:27:38,560 --> 01:27:43,040 Speaker 18: the ACA tax credits that keep healthcare costs down. Our 1237 01:27:43,080 --> 01:27:49,640 Speaker 18: bill keeps premiums down. Their chaos sends premiums up. Republicans 1238 01:27:49,640 --> 01:27:53,519 Speaker 18: have forty eight hours to choose join Democrats and stop 1239 01:27:53,600 --> 01:27:57,439 Speaker 18: the spike or stick millions of Americans with higher costs. 1240 01:27:57,560 --> 01:28:02,240 Speaker 18: This is their last chance before January first, when the 1241 01:28:02,280 --> 01:28:04,439 Speaker 18: American people have to pay these bills. 1242 01:28:05,880 --> 01:28:08,479 Speaker 1: Triple eight ninetemb one seven two four three, Triple eight 1243 01:28:08,560 --> 01:28:11,679 Speaker 1: nineteen one SAG. That, of course, was Senator Chuck Schumer 1244 01:28:12,160 --> 01:28:15,679 Speaker 1: saying that the ACA, the Affordable Care Act, keeps costs down. 1245 01:28:16,320 --> 01:28:19,839 Speaker 1: Even a Democrat Senator from Vermont said the ACA failed 1246 01:28:19,960 --> 01:28:25,439 Speaker 1: to control costs. Now, I want to take a pause, 1247 01:28:25,520 --> 01:28:29,439 Speaker 1: to take a moment to say thank you to everybody 1248 01:28:29,439 --> 01:28:32,760 Speaker 1: who's already joined my Angel Tree Christmas campaign and to 1249 01:28:32,800 --> 01:28:34,880 Speaker 1: invite the rest of you listening to chip end as well, 1250 01:28:35,600 --> 01:28:38,160 Speaker 1: because of your generosity and that of other caring friends 1251 01:28:38,160 --> 01:28:41,280 Speaker 1: who've gone to my website Larryelder dot com and clicked 1252 01:28:41,320 --> 01:28:44,360 Speaker 1: on the angel Tree banner, meaning deserving boys and girls 1253 01:28:44,400 --> 01:28:47,439 Speaker 1: will experience the joy of an angel Tree Christmas with 1254 01:28:47,600 --> 01:28:50,760 Speaker 1: a Christmas gift, a personal note from his or her 1255 01:28:50,800 --> 01:28:54,320 Speaker 1: parent in prison, and the good news of Jesus.

When I met her, she had just gotten 1291 01:30:51,560 --> 01:30:56,960 Speaker 5: enrolled and she had Blue Cross, but because of a 1292 01:30:57,080 --> 01:31:00,960 Speaker 5: rare disease that she came down with to used up 1293 01:31:01,080 --> 01:31:08,160 Speaker 5: her lifetime limits and became uninsurable. You know, with Obamacare, 1294 01:31:09,640 --> 01:31:17,360 Speaker 5: your pre existent edishes didn't care, didn't count. So she 1295 01:31:17,880 --> 01:31:22,800 Speaker 5: has she was able to go to UCSF until and 1296 01:31:23,040 --> 01:31:28,400 Speaker 5: still today she has about five different doctors, neurologists, surgeon 1297 01:31:28,640 --> 01:31:33,800 Speaker 5: and colleges. And I also, because I saw what it 1298 01:31:33,960 --> 01:31:38,280 Speaker 5: had done for her, I got out into the community 1299 01:31:38,960 --> 01:31:45,400 Speaker 5: and help enroll people into Obamacare. And to this date, 1300 01:31:45,840 --> 01:31:51,439 Speaker 5: I don't know anyone personally that was not happy with 1301 01:31:51,600 --> 01:31:52,360 Speaker 5: the insurance. 1302 01:31:53,520 --> 01:31:56,080 Speaker 1: I have a number of responses to that. First of all, 1303 01:31:56,120 --> 01:31:59,040 Speaker 1: we're in California. Even before Obamacare, there was already a 1304 01:31:59,080 --> 01:32:01,560 Speaker 1: high risk pool for people who had pre existing illnesses. 1305 01:32:02,120 --> 01:32:05,479 Speaker 1: Many states already had them, but more than that. And 1306 01:32:05,520 --> 01:32:07,519 Speaker 1: I'm happy that your that your wife was able to 1307 01:32:07,520 --> 01:32:10,760 Speaker 1: get her coverage. But there's lots of ways to skin 1308 01:32:10,880 --> 01:32:13,280 Speaker 1: this cat uh, And there's no reason to believe that 1309 01:32:13,320 --> 01:32:15,599 Speaker 1: but for Obamacare, there wouldn't have been something that would 1310 01:32:15,640 --> 01:32:18,479 Speaker 1: have been done for people like your like your wife. 1311 01:32:18,920 --> 01:32:20,599 Speaker 1: You know, you look at the fraud, you look at 1312 01:32:20,600 --> 01:32:22,719 Speaker 1: the abuse, you look at the fact that it's cost 1313 01:32:22,800 --> 01:32:26,320 Speaker 1: far more than what the planners said that would cost you. 1314 01:32:26,320 --> 01:32:28,559 Speaker 1: You could not keep your plan if you wanted your plan, 1315 01:32:28,640 --> 01:32:30,639 Speaker 1: could not keep your doctor if you wanted your doctor. 1316 01:32:30,840 --> 01:32:32,439 Speaker 1: It didn't bend the cost curved down. I can go 1317 01:32:32,479 --> 01:32:33,680 Speaker 1: I can go on and on and on about all 1318 01:32:33,720 --> 01:32:36,639 Speaker 1: the broken promises that were made. Obviously it helps some people. 1319 01:32:36,680 --> 01:32:39,280 Speaker 1: The question is is that the best way of making 1320 01:32:39,280 --> 01:32:42,559 Speaker 1: sure that healthcare is cheap, affordable with high quality, And 1321 01:32:42,600 --> 01:32:43,160 Speaker 1: I say. 1322 01:32:43,000 --> 01:32:48,760 Speaker 20: No, Well, I'm also at the age of Medicare, and 1323 01:32:48,800 --> 01:32:51,360 Speaker 20: so am I so which I love. 1324 01:32:51,760 --> 01:32:52,960 Speaker 5: I think is great. 1325 01:32:53,280 --> 01:32:56,360 Speaker 1: Well, well, well, James, James, let's let's let's assume. Let's assume, however, 1326 01:32:56,600 --> 01:32:59,799 Speaker 1: that you've been working a long time. Obviously you're retired. 1327 01:32:59,840 --> 01:33:02,720 Speaker 1: Now let's assume instead of the money that you put 1328 01:33:02,760 --> 01:33:05,320 Speaker 1: in Medicare you kept it. Instead of the money you 1329 01:33:05,360 --> 01:33:07,360 Speaker 1: put in Social Security, you kept it and you invested 1330 01:33:07,360 --> 01:33:10,760 Speaker 1: it over time. You'd have be better off. You've been 1331 01:33:10,800 --> 01:33:13,200 Speaker 1: able to buy your own policy with the high aductible 1332 01:33:13,280 --> 01:33:14,280 Speaker 1: and have money left over. 1333 01:33:15,760 --> 01:33:15,960 Speaker 14: Yeah. 1334 01:33:16,000 --> 01:33:18,800 Speaker 5: No, I agree, but that doesn't work for everybody. 1335 01:33:19,439 --> 01:33:25,559 Speaker 20: And maybe because I was thrifty, America has been very, 1336 01:33:25,680 --> 01:33:29,519 Speaker 20: very good to me. I was able to achieve my 1337 01:33:29,640 --> 01:33:35,640 Speaker 20: American dream because of my father. My father loved America, 1338 01:33:36,280 --> 01:33:40,120 Speaker 20: flew our flag every day and said there is no 1339 01:33:40,200 --> 01:33:42,479 Speaker 20: country in the world where he could have been born, 1340 01:33:43,120 --> 01:33:45,679 Speaker 20: where he couldn't have been that where he could have 1341 01:33:45,720 --> 01:33:49,320 Speaker 20: become as successful as he was. 1342 01:33:49,439 --> 01:33:52,479 Speaker 1: I understand that, James, don't agree with I don't disagree 1343 01:33:52,520 --> 01:33:55,479 Speaker 1: with anything you said. The question is, is Obamacare the 1344 01:33:55,520 --> 01:33:57,280 Speaker 1: only way to achieve the kind of thing that you 1345 01:33:57,320 --> 01:33:59,800 Speaker 1: and I want? And my answer is no. Now, if 1346 01:33:59,800 --> 01:34:02,479 Speaker 1: we didn't have Obamacare and you kept the money that 1347 01:34:02,200 --> 01:34:05,280 Speaker 1: you that we took out of your paycheck, you would 1348 01:34:05,280 --> 01:34:07,600 Speaker 1: have done something responsible with it, because you're responsible. So 1349 01:34:07,720 --> 01:34:10,160 Speaker 1: isn't the issue to encourage people to be responsible as 1350 01:34:10,200 --> 01:34:12,759 Speaker 1: opposed to saying let's just make a bad system for everybody, 1351 01:34:12,800 --> 01:34:14,840 Speaker 1: because there's certain people who are going to be irresponsible. 1352 01:34:15,960 --> 01:34:16,719 Speaker 15: Oh of course. 1353 01:34:18,000 --> 01:34:21,519 Speaker 20: But at that time, before I met, as I say, 1354 01:34:21,640 --> 01:34:26,080 Speaker 20: my prison's wife, I was married to a doctor and she. 1355 01:34:26,160 --> 01:34:33,480 Speaker 21: Had a hatred for insurance companies because they controlled everything. 1356 01:34:34,000 --> 01:34:36,120 Speaker 21: And she used to say to me all the time, 1357 01:34:36,479 --> 01:34:39,160 Speaker 21: you know, the uninsureds really had no value. 1358 01:34:39,240 --> 01:34:43,759 Speaker 1: Well, also, James, the insurance company's got far more power 1359 01:34:44,360 --> 01:34:47,360 Speaker 1: under Obamacare than they had before. That's why their stock 1360 01:34:47,400 --> 01:34:51,120 Speaker 1: has gone up like crazy. That's why insurance companies, for 1361 01:34:51,160 --> 01:34:54,400 Speaker 1: the most part, donate to Democrats far more than they 1362 01:34:54,479 --> 01:34:57,439 Speaker 1: donate to Republicans. And I find it remarkable, as I 1363 01:34:57,479 --> 01:35:00,759 Speaker 1: said earlier, the same people that celebrated the the murder 1364 01:35:00,760 --> 01:35:05,679 Speaker 1: of that healthcare insurance ceo want the subpidies that made 1365 01:35:05,760 --> 01:35:10,720 Speaker 1: ceo companies like that extremely wealthy. So you're happy that 1366 01:35:10,760 --> 01:35:14,479 Speaker 1: the greedy companies got slapped down by the assassination or 1367 01:35:14,479 --> 01:35:16,320 Speaker 1: the murder of the CEO. On the other hand, you 1368 01:35:16,360 --> 01:35:19,719 Speaker 1: want those supodies to keep going that made the insurance 1369 01:35:19,720 --> 01:35:23,400 Speaker 1: companies so rich. I don't get it. All I'm saying 1370 01:35:23,439 --> 01:35:24,880 Speaker 1: is it's a better way of doing this, and the 1371 01:35:24,880 --> 01:35:34,120 Speaker 1: better way is free markets. Triple eight nine seventy one Sage. 1372 01:35:38,920 --> 01:35:39,960 Speaker 22: Any debate. 1373 01:35:41,360 --> 01:35:41,720 Speaker 3: As to. 1374 01:35:43,240 --> 01:35:49,120 Speaker 22: The success or failure of this economy related to how 1375 01:35:49,120 --> 01:35:52,600 Speaker 22: it may be graded, the only question is whether the 1376 01:35:52,640 --> 01:35:55,360 Speaker 22: American people would give it a DEF disaster or f 1377 01:35:55,360 --> 01:36:03,320 Speaker 22: F failure. That's it. Nothing else. Our House Democrats are 1378 01:36:03,320 --> 01:36:08,559 Speaker 22: going to continue to focus on driving down the high 1379 01:36:08,600 --> 01:36:12,679 Speaker 22: cost of living, fixing our broken healthcare system, and actually 1380 01:36:12,760 --> 01:36:17,160 Speaker 22: making life better for the American people. And we can 1381 01:36:17,320 --> 01:36:21,479 Speaker 22: start by extending the Affordable Care Act tax credits. Time 1382 01:36:21,560 --> 01:36:26,880 Speaker 22: has run out. Democrats have been pressing our Republican colleagues 1383 01:36:27,000 --> 01:36:31,240 Speaker 22: four months to deal with the healthcare crisis that they 1384 01:36:31,280 --> 01:36:35,920 Speaker 22: have created, and in a matter of just a few weeks, 1385 01:36:36,240 --> 01:36:40,559 Speaker 22: tens of millions of Americans who live in every single 1386 01:36:40,640 --> 01:36:47,920 Speaker 22: state across this country are about to experience dramatically increased 1387 01:36:48,360 --> 01:36:49,400 Speaker 22: health care costs. 1388 01:36:51,640 --> 01:36:55,160 Speaker 1: Triple eight nine seven one Sage, Triple eight nine seven 1389 01:36:55,240 --> 01:36:58,320 Speaker 1: one seven two four to three. Larry elder Salem News 1390 01:36:58,360 --> 01:37:02,679 Speaker 1: Channel debt was Jakim Jeffreys, the Democrat leader in the House. 1391 01:37:04,560 --> 01:37:10,040 Speaker 1: Notice that Obamacare is called the Affordable Care Act, but 1392 01:37:10,120 --> 01:37:13,480 Speaker 1: we have a health care crisis because health care is unaffordable. 1393 01:37:20,479 --> 01:37:26,519 Speaker 1: Speaking of Obamacare, in twenty twenty four, seven thousand people 1394 01:37:26,520 --> 01:37:35,360 Speaker 1: were dead before their coverage began. The Centers for Medicare 1395 01:37:35,400 --> 01:37:40,599 Speaker 1: and Medicaid received two hundred and seventy five thousand complaints 1396 01:37:40,640 --> 01:37:44,800 Speaker 1: in just eight months from Americans who were enrolled in 1397 01:37:45,920 --> 01:37:51,920 Speaker 1: or we switched into plant without their consent, twenty seven 1398 01:37:52,120 --> 01:38:01,320 Speaker 1: billion dollars a year in improper payments, all the promises 1399 01:38:01,360 --> 01:38:07,760 Speaker 1: that were made. Bend the cost curved down false, save 1400 01:38:07,840 --> 01:38:10,559 Speaker 1: the average family twenty five hundred dollars a year in 1401 01:38:11,000 --> 01:38:16,800 Speaker 1: premiums false, keep your doctor false, keep your health care 1402 01:38:16,840 --> 01:38:23,519 Speaker 1: plan false. Bend the cost curved down false false false false. 1403 01:38:24,120 --> 01:38:29,280 Speaker 1: And what's the answer, Chuck Schumer says, extend the affordable 1404 01:38:29,479 --> 01:38:34,320 Speaker 1: tax credits for three more years. Keep in mind, during COVID, 1405 01:38:34,760 --> 01:38:39,600 Speaker 1: the numbers of people that were eligible were expanded supposedly temporarily. 1406 01:38:40,160 --> 01:38:42,320 Speaker 1: Now the COVID crisis is over, but they want those 1407 01:38:42,320 --> 01:38:48,439 Speaker 1: same elevated levels extended, and of course, the answer, as 1408 01:38:48,479 --> 01:38:52,880 Speaker 1: I said a million times, is free markets. And I 1409 01:38:52,920 --> 01:38:55,439 Speaker 1: don't know a single Republican other than Rand Paul who's 1410 01:38:55,439 --> 01:39:02,400 Speaker 1: sang this because it's political suicide. You tell people that 1411 01:39:02,439 --> 01:39:06,920 Speaker 1: we're going to alter the system so that you have 1412 01:39:07,000 --> 01:39:11,640 Speaker 1: your own money and a savings account tax free, and 1413 01:39:11,720 --> 01:39:13,880 Speaker 1: you can use it to buy a policy with a 1414 01:39:13,920 --> 01:39:19,679 Speaker 1: high deductible, you will not win elections because the other 1415 01:39:19,720 --> 01:39:24,839 Speaker 1: side is going to accuse you of attacking seniors, attacking 1416 01:39:24,840 --> 01:39:30,559 Speaker 1: the disabled. Works every time. Joe Biden once even said 1417 01:39:30,600 --> 01:39:34,879 Speaker 1: that said, at one time Republicans were opposed to Medicare, 1418 01:39:34,880 --> 01:39:37,640 Speaker 1: and now they're not, but we still keep saying that 1419 01:39:37,680 --> 01:39:40,640 Speaker 1: they're opposed to it, even though we know it's not true. 1420 01:39:40,920 --> 01:39:43,400 Speaker 1: Senator Joe Biden even said that in one of those 1421 01:39:44,720 --> 01:39:56,559 Speaker 1: unguarded candid moments. I remember when Geraldine Ferraro, the first 1422 01:39:56,600 --> 01:40:03,360 Speaker 1: female vice president candidate, was running Democrats under Walter Mondale. 1423 01:40:03,880 --> 01:40:06,960 Speaker 1: She was asked about the so called scheme to privatize 1424 01:40:06,960 --> 01:40:14,120 Speaker 1: social Security and who invested in markets, and she said, 1425 01:40:14,120 --> 01:40:17,000 Speaker 1: if you lack the knowledge and the wherewithal, you're out 1426 01:40:17,000 --> 01:40:20,280 Speaker 1: of luck, meaning that she believes that Americans are too 1427 01:40:20,280 --> 01:40:24,160 Speaker 1: stupid to be able to invest their own money. Not 1428 01:40:24,280 --> 01:40:26,559 Speaker 1: too stupid to take on the biggest challenge you can 1429 01:40:26,600 --> 01:40:28,280 Speaker 1: take on in your life, which is to have children, 1430 01:40:30,000 --> 01:40:31,519 Speaker 1: but too stupid to be able to figure out how 1431 01:40:31,520 --> 01:40:37,680 Speaker 1: to invest your own money. You look at things that 1432 01:40:38,200 --> 01:40:42,320 Speaker 1: government and insurance carriers are not involved in, like facelifts 1433 01:40:42,720 --> 01:40:49,000 Speaker 1: or hair grass or lasic surgery. Over the years gotten cheaper, better, 1434 01:40:49,720 --> 01:40:53,280 Speaker 1: more affordable, more accessible.

Now, you just showed a deal 1465 01:42:48,000 --> 01:42:53,400 Speaker 19: where all these people think we should have a communist president. 1466 01:42:54,840 --> 01:42:58,880 Speaker 19: That group of people should be sent to China for 1467 01:42:58,920 --> 01:43:03,559 Speaker 19: a two year learning curve deal. And see how they 1468 01:43:03,600 --> 01:43:07,919 Speaker 19: come back and say we should still have a communist president. 1469 01:43:08,800 --> 01:43:12,040 Speaker 1: Well, to be fair, they use the term democrat socialists, 1470 01:43:12,040 --> 01:43:14,000 Speaker 1: and you and I won't think there's much of a difference, 1471 01:43:14,000 --> 01:43:16,759 Speaker 1: but that was a term that they responded to. Fifty 1472 01:43:16,800 --> 01:43:19,280 Speaker 1: one percent of likely voters under forty say they want 1473 01:43:19,280 --> 01:43:21,960 Speaker 1: a Democrat socialist to be president in twenty twenty eight. 1474 01:43:23,800 --> 01:43:27,799 Speaker 12: Right, you can promise, oh, hey, we'll take care of everything. 1475 01:43:28,040 --> 01:43:31,760 Speaker 12: We're even going to pay off your credit card debt. 1476 01:43:32,120 --> 01:43:34,800 Speaker 12: And once you voted that guy in, do you think 1477 01:43:34,840 --> 01:43:36,280 Speaker 12: you're ever going to getting back out? 1478 01:43:36,439 --> 01:43:39,120 Speaker 1: Nope. No, when you when you rob Peter to pay Paul, 1479 01:43:39,160 --> 01:43:42,240 Speaker 1: you can always count on the support of Paul. The 1480 01:43:42,280 --> 01:43:45,040 Speaker 1: reason I make a distinction between a Democrat socialist and 1481 01:43:45,040 --> 01:43:48,360 Speaker 1: a communist is because of communism, to me, is done 1482 01:43:48,439 --> 01:43:53,680 Speaker 1: by point of bayonet, by the sword, by the barrel. 1483 01:43:55,000 --> 01:43:58,400 Speaker 1: These are people in New York City, for example, who 1484 01:43:58,479 --> 01:44:02,519 Speaker 1: have voluntarily gone to the voting booth or fell out 1485 01:44:02,520 --> 01:44:07,600 Speaker 1: their ballid application and voted for a Democrat socialist and 1486 01:44:07,640 --> 01:44:12,720 Speaker 1: surrendering their freedom voluntarily, which is exactly what this is 1487 01:44:14,280 --> 01:44:18,160 Speaker 1: telling a landlord he or she cannot charge fair market value, 1488 01:44:18,680 --> 01:44:22,320 Speaker 1: freezing the rents and therefore forcing a bunch of people 1489 01:44:22,600 --> 01:44:25,160 Speaker 1: who won't be able to make a profit and to 1490 01:44:25,200 --> 01:44:28,880 Speaker 1: make a decision to leave the apartment vacant or get 1491 01:44:28,960 --> 01:44:32,320 Speaker 1: ripped off, so they just leave it vacant. And as 1492 01:44:32,320 --> 01:44:33,639 Speaker 1: I said at the top of the show, if you're 1493 01:44:33,680 --> 01:44:37,000 Speaker 1: just now joining us, A Rasmussen poll found that fifty 1494 01:44:37,040 --> 01:44:40,439 Speaker 1: one percent of likely voters under the age of forty 1495 01:44:40,880 --> 01:44:43,840 Speaker 1: want a Democrat socialist to be president. In twenty twenty eight, 1496 01:44:44,120 --> 01:44:47,720 Speaker 1: seventy two percent of Democrat likely voters under the age 1497 01:44:47,720 --> 01:44:50,800 Speaker 1: of forty want a Democrat socialist to be president. Twenty 1498 01:44:50,800 --> 01:44:54,960 Speaker 1: four percent of Republican likely voters under forty two. This 1499 01:44:55,040 --> 01:45:00,559 Speaker 1: is an absolute scary scenario that so many young people 1500 01:45:00,600 --> 01:45:06,040 Speaker 1: believe that the things that they want can be obtained better, faster, 1501 01:45:06,760 --> 01:45:10,879 Speaker 1: more cheaply with good quality by government intervention as opposed 1502 01:45:10,880 --> 01:45:14,640 Speaker 1: to people competing to please their fellow man, which is 1503 01:45:14,680 --> 01:45:20,680 Speaker 1: what capitalism really is. Rain is in Melbourne, Florida. Rain 1504 01:45:20,760 --> 01:45:21,919 Speaker 1: in the Lario to show. 1505 01:45:23,840 --> 01:45:26,679 Speaker 24: Hey, Larry, I hope you have a merry Christmas. 1506 01:45:26,040 --> 01:45:28,920 Speaker 1: And you as well, thank you. 1507 01:45:29,000 --> 01:45:31,439 Speaker 24: I just wanted to mention about the Blue States and 1508 01:45:31,479 --> 01:45:34,640 Speaker 24: I just saw that politician you had up there and 1509 01:45:34,680 --> 01:45:38,200 Speaker 24: how he was trying to manipulate his audience about the 1510 01:45:38,520 --> 01:45:41,000 Speaker 24: state taxing and all this and saying, oh, we need 1511 01:45:41,000 --> 01:45:44,120 Speaker 24: a better life for everyone when they're the ones raising 1512 01:45:44,320 --> 01:45:47,400 Speaker 24: all the state taxes. And I guarantee that they took 1513 01:45:48,160 --> 01:45:50,920 Speaker 24: all the food stamps away from the people or actual 1514 01:45:51,000 --> 01:45:53,920 Speaker 24: citizens who are actually using them and giving them to 1515 01:45:54,000 --> 01:45:57,000 Speaker 24: the undocumented people to keep them fed, to keep them, 1516 01:45:57,120 --> 01:46:00,000 Speaker 24: you know, in line, so they can continue to use 1517 01:46:00,120 --> 01:46:02,880 Speaker 24: them people while they have our own citizens supper. So 1518 01:46:03,600 --> 01:46:05,960 Speaker 24: they need to get their factorate sublime to the people 1519 01:46:06,040 --> 01:46:07,680 Speaker 24: and use an emotional manipulation. 1520 01:46:08,920 --> 01:46:09,559 Speaker 1: That's what it is. 1521 01:46:09,640 --> 01:46:09,840 Speaker 11: Rain. 1522 01:46:09,960 --> 01:46:13,840 Speaker 1: And remember the big beautiful bill rooted out waste, fraud 1523 01:46:13,880 --> 01:46:18,920 Speaker 1: and abuse in the Metacaid program. And if you're forty 1524 01:46:18,960 --> 01:46:23,439 Speaker 1: years old, childless, no disability, that require you to work 1525 01:46:23,479 --> 01:46:26,439 Speaker 1: twenty hours a week. And they screamed like scalded kittens. 1526 01:46:26,439 --> 01:46:32,599 Speaker 1: The Democrats did and did not support that bill. Now 1527 01:46:33,920 --> 01:46:37,639 Speaker 1: let's turn to a little bit more of the Trump 1528 01:46:37,680 --> 01:46:43,040 Speaker 1: derangement syndrome. The governor of Illinois just signed the bill 1529 01:46:43,280 --> 01:46:47,240 Speaker 1: providing greater protections against deportation if you're an illegal alien. 1530 01:46:47,520 --> 01:46:51,200 Speaker 1: Here's what he said, one oh eight, you're. 1531 01:46:51,080 --> 01:46:57,040 Speaker 25: An intimidation have been visited upon us by fellow Americans. 1532 01:46:58,280 --> 01:47:04,080 Speaker 25: It's unconstitutional. It's not the Illinois or the America that 1533 01:47:04,240 --> 01:47:09,920 Speaker 25: I know our nation is better than this. Standing here 1534 01:47:09,920 --> 01:47:16,040 Speaker 25: today with friends and neighbors, small business people, advocates, community activists, partners, 1535 01:47:16,040 --> 01:47:19,600 Speaker 25: and government and the General Assembly, I'm here today to 1536 01:47:19,760 --> 01:47:24,000 Speaker 25: sign into law an expansion of legal protections for the 1537 01:47:24,080 --> 01:47:39,639 Speaker 25: people of Illinois. Together, we're sending a message to Donald Trump, 1538 01:47:39,760 --> 01:47:43,639 Speaker 25: to Christy Gnome, to Gregory Bavino, and anyone else seeking 1539 01:47:43,640 --> 01:47:49,599 Speaker 25: to terrorize our people. Your divisiveness and your brutality are 1540 01:47:49,680 --> 01:47:50,639 Speaker 25: not welcome here. 1541 01:47:51,439 --> 01:47:57,479 Speaker 1: Seeking to terrorize our people? Does your people include illegal aliens, 1542 01:47:57,520 --> 01:48:02,960 Speaker 1: including and especially violent illegals. Why do you need protections 1543 01:48:03,000 --> 01:48:07,599 Speaker 1: for your people if they're here lawfully. What he's doing 1544 01:48:07,800 --> 01:48:12,880 Speaker 1: is protecting those who are here unlawfully, particularly the worst 1545 01:48:12,920 --> 01:48:15,840 Speaker 1: and the worst, which is what Donald Trump is prioritizing. 1546 01:48:17,760 --> 01:48:20,960 Speaker 1: And again, the people that are most hurt by illegal 1547 01:48:21,040 --> 01:48:23,840 Speaker 1: aliens are the very black and brown people living in 1548 01:48:23,840 --> 01:48:26,439 Speaker 1: the inner city with high school or less against whom 1549 01:48:26,439 --> 01:48:30,200 Speaker 1: they compete for jobs and the presence of illegal aliens 1550 01:48:30,280 --> 01:48:33,080 Speaker 1: puts down with pressure on their wages. And these are 1551 01:48:33,120 --> 01:48:38,599 Speaker 1: the people who are supposed to be on your side. Now, 1552 01:48:38,960 --> 01:48:42,600 Speaker 1: got a question for you. Ever been in a bad relationship? 1553 01:48:43,040 --> 01:48:44,800 Speaker 1: Do you know the kind It just wears you down. 1554 01:48:45,320 --> 01:48:47,439 Speaker 1: You settle in, even though deep down you know this 1555 01:48:47,560 --> 01:48:49,880 Speaker 1: isn't how it's supposed to be. Well, that's what daily 1556 01:48:49,880 --> 01:48:52,080 Speaker 1: aches and pain can feel like. You stopped expecting to 1557 01:48:52,120 --> 01:48:54,200 Speaker 1: feel good. You start thinking, well, maybe this is just 1558 01:48:54,280 --> 01:48:57,040 Speaker 1: my life now. It is what it is, but it 1559 01:48:57,080 --> 01:48:59,160 Speaker 1: doesn't have to be.

And I told you about Kirk had 1565 01:49:15,280 --> 01:49:17,200 Speaker 1: difficulty going up and down the stairs in the morning. 1566 01:49:17,680 --> 01:49:20,240 Speaker 1: Finally followed my advice started taking Relief Factor.

E. Triple eight nine seven one seven two 1575 01:49:56,560 --> 01:49:59,360 Speaker 1: four to three. Larry Elder sail on the news channel, Kevin, 1576 01:49:59,400 --> 01:50:01,479 Speaker 1: is it rancho kokomonga? Kevin, thank you so much for 1577 01:50:01,479 --> 01:50:02,960 Speaker 1: holding on so long. I appreciate it. 1578 01:50:04,080 --> 01:50:07,160 Speaker 3: Hey learn well, I'm in and then I'm home. 1579 01:50:07,880 --> 01:50:08,880 Speaker 15: Okay. 1580 01:50:11,760 --> 01:50:21,479 Speaker 3: I have a question an advertisement for the tax credits 1581 01:50:21,560 --> 01:50:24,840 Speaker 3: to keep the cost for right, And that's exactly what 1582 01:50:25,040 --> 01:50:28,479 Speaker 3: the Democrats. I assume the tax credit is different. Can 1583 01:50:28,520 --> 01:50:30,840 Speaker 3: you explain that because the tax credit is a tax credits, 1584 01:50:30,880 --> 01:50:34,880 Speaker 3: so it's kind of it's it's a little money. 1585 01:50:35,320 --> 01:50:38,120 Speaker 1: It is money. It is money, Kevin. The term I 1586 01:50:38,200 --> 01:50:42,839 Speaker 1: prefer is suppodes. This is money given to insurance companies 1587 01:50:42,920 --> 01:50:45,960 Speaker 1: that they're supposedly supposed to use to lower the cost 1588 01:50:46,520 --> 01:50:49,479 Speaker 1: for their people that subscribe to them. So I prefer 1589 01:50:49,520 --> 01:50:53,799 Speaker 1: the term suppidy as opposed to tax credits. And here's 1590 01:50:53,840 --> 01:50:56,880 Speaker 1: the deal. As you know, because of the way Obamacare 1591 01:50:56,920 --> 01:51:01,439 Speaker 1: was designed, these suppides are tax credits expire, which will 1592 01:51:01,520 --> 01:51:05,080 Speaker 1: cause premiums to go up pretty dramatically. And the question is, 1593 01:51:05,680 --> 01:51:08,360 Speaker 1: in the real world, what are Republicans going to do 1594 01:51:08,400 --> 01:51:11,880 Speaker 1: about that? If they go up substantially, they're going to 1595 01:51:11,880 --> 01:51:14,800 Speaker 1: get slaughtered in the midterms. Everybody knows that. On the 1596 01:51:14,840 --> 01:51:18,120 Speaker 1: other hand, if you continue them, that means the waste, 1597 01:51:18,280 --> 01:51:22,400 Speaker 1: the fraud, and all of the cost of Obamacare continues. 1598 01:51:24,160 --> 01:51:27,479 Speaker 1: So what I suspect will happen is that Republican that fact, 1599 01:51:27,520 --> 01:51:31,320 Speaker 1: they've already proposed a plan to first roll back the 1600 01:51:31,400 --> 01:51:36,160 Speaker 1: submedies that were increased during COVID that Biden did, and 1601 01:51:36,200 --> 01:51:41,240 Speaker 1: then give money directly to taxpayers, to the people that 1602 01:51:41,280 --> 01:51:45,000 Speaker 1: subscribe to healthcare, that put in a healthcare account that 1603 01:51:45,040 --> 01:51:47,040 Speaker 1: they can use to buy a policy of their own. 1604 01:51:48,520 --> 01:51:51,960 Speaker 1: That's what the Republicans have gotten behind pretty much, and 1605 01:51:52,360 --> 01:51:54,400 Speaker 1: they need to have sixty votes. I'm not sure they're 1606 01:51:54,439 --> 01:51:56,840 Speaker 1: going to get sixty votes. So I don't know what's 1607 01:51:56,880 --> 01:51:59,880 Speaker 1: going to happen. All I know is this Obamacare was 1608 01:51:59,880 --> 01:52:03,040 Speaker 1: a neutron bomb dropped on this country. I read you 1609 01:52:03,120 --> 01:52:05,400 Speaker 1: the article that I wrote back in two thousand and 1610 01:52:05,479 --> 01:52:08,560 Speaker 1: nine where I said, right now, it looks like it's 1611 01:52:08,680 --> 01:52:12,960 Speaker 1: quote unquote affordable because they have backloaded it so the 1612 01:52:13,000 --> 01:52:16,479 Speaker 1: expenses are near the end and not the beginning. That's 1613 01:52:16,520 --> 01:52:20,760 Speaker 1: why they got that positive Congressional Budget Office score as 1614 01:52:20,800 --> 01:52:24,840 Speaker 1: it's called, but it didn't control costs. I knew it 1615 01:52:24,840 --> 01:52:27,280 Speaker 1: wouldn't control the costs. I said it wouldn't. But by 1616 01:52:27,320 --> 01:52:30,000 Speaker 1: the time the bill came due, Obama would be long 1617 01:52:30,040 --> 01:52:32,320 Speaker 1: out of office, and he's now long out of office. 1618 01:52:33,040 --> 01:52:35,240 Speaker 1: And then the American people, some of them would be 1619 01:52:35,240 --> 01:52:37,599 Speaker 1: getting Obamacare, like the gentleman who called earlier and said 1620 01:52:37,640 --> 01:52:39,760 Speaker 1: his wife was alive because of it. So you're going 1621 01:52:39,800 --> 01:52:43,200 Speaker 1: to have a constituent people that are now benefiting from it. 1622 01:52:44,000 --> 01:52:47,800 Speaker 1: That will create a class of people that people will 1623 01:52:47,840 --> 01:52:54,519 Speaker 1: be reluctant to turn against. And it means one more 1624 01:52:54,720 --> 01:52:57,360 Speaker 1: giant leap towards what the Democrats have always wanted, which 1625 01:52:57,360 --> 01:52:59,960 Speaker 1: is single payer, which is exactly what Ronald Reagan want 1626 01:53:00,080 --> 01:53:02,360 Speaker 1: and against.
