I 7 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 1: don't even know if I'll play it again. It's a 8 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 1: dagne embarrassing, but it is what it is. Let's move on, 9 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:43,239 Speaker 1: you know what. Let's step away from politics to deal 10 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 1: with a couple of things. Military matters, veterans, suicide. Where's 11 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 1: the worst place to fight? This guy says, dear Oracle. 12 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 1: Regarding your hammock story, if you missed it the other night, 13 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 1: I retold the story I've told before about my hammock 14 00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: exploding in the middle of the jungle and Thailand and whatever. 15 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: Go download a podcasts of the show if you missed it. 16 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 1: iHeart Spotify iTunes. Anyway, Regarding your hammock story, as you 17 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: have experience of desert warfare from fighting in Iraq, was 18 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 1: it less hellish than jungle fighting? What environment do you 19 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:22,759 Speaker 1: consider most conducive to warfare jungle, desert, temperate planes, forests 20 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,759 Speaker 1: of Europe and North America. Warfare is hellashawan warriors wherever 21 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: they fight, But what environment would be the least hellish? 22 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 1: My cousin, who also listens to you, wonder what life 23 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:35,680 Speaker 1: is like for you up in the sixth age stratosphere. 24 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 1: His name is Michael. Okay. Well, first of all, being 25 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 1: as how I'm six eight, let me just clue you 26 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: in on just something, just something. Everyone has different philosophies 27 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: in life. I'm not saying mine's correct about everything or 28 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: really anything. Who knows, right? But I never wanted to 29 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: be boring. I just don't want to be boring. Isn't 30 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: that isn't that bad? I don't want to be boring. 31 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 1: So let me tell everyone, when you see a really 32 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 1: tall person, try the best you can not to ask 33 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 1: them how the weather is up there, And if you 34 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 1: can make that effort, maybe go one step further and 35 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: don't ask them if you play basketball, Because it's not 36 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 1: that you're going to offend me if you've ever said 37 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: these things to me, it's just you really really need 38 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: to understand how painfully unoriginal those two questions are about 39 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 1: ninety percent of the people I get in an elevator 40 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: with will ask me those two questions on our way 41 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: up or down wherever we're going. Oh my gosh, how 42 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 1: tall were you? Do you play basketball? It just comes 43 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 1: out of people. So that part of being six eight's annoying. 44 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 1: It's very, very annoying to have to purchase first class 45 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: air travel seats. I've never traveled first class in my 46 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: entire life. Our honeymoon we got upgraded for free because 47 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: they found out we were on our honeymoon. It was 48 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 1: the greatest moment of my life. And now it's gotten 49 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 1: to the point where my right kneel. But whatever. Now 50 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 1: I basically have to buy them if it's a long flight, 51 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 1: and it really irks me to spend that kind of money. 52 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: So that sucks. Other than that, six eates being great now. 53 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: The best environment to fight a war now, I would 54 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: argue the desert. And I've been doing a bunch of 55 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: reading lately on Rommel, that German general Rommel in the fighting. 56 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: He was fighting the Brits for a long time in 57 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: Northern Africa before we ever got there, Before Patten and 58 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: whatnot got there, he was fighting the Brits and the 59 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: Nazis would push him back, and then the Brits would 60 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: push them back, and then the Nazis would push them back. 61 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: All this desert warfare training, and you would think the 62 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: desert would be uniquely horrible. And don't get me wrong, 63 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 1: it was most definitely horrible. It was hot and miserable 64 00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: and it sucked. But it is fairly open. You can 65 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 1: move around. And it depends on what kind of army 66 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: you have, obviously, but if you are a mobile army 67 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: that wants to move and can move, the desert is 68 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: amazing because you don't have canyons and gullies and all 69 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: kinds of things like that. Trees, you just don't have 70 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 1: that stuff. Chris said, sand Well, when I say desert, 71 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 1: I should clarify I'm not talking about sand dunes and 72 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: things like that. You generally don't see a ton of 73 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 1: fighting and that kind of you're thinking Sahara from the movies. 74 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,119 Speaker 1: You're thinking that Sahara desert from the movie. You generally 75 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: don't see a lot of fighting there, and yes, that 76 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: would be a pain, but believe me, that would suck too. 77 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 1: The worst from I shouldn't say the worst because I 78 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 1: don't know. I've only fought in one. I only fought 79 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 1: in the desert. I did training in other kinds. But 80 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: have you ever, how much do you know about the 81 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: fighting that took place around Port Moresby in New Guinea, 82 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 1: New Guinea? You know where New Guinea is. It's over 83 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 1: by Australia. It's thank you, John, over by Australia. So 84 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: I'm not going to go into that. We're not doing 85 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: a bunch of history. But you should know that it 86 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: was a combination of the thickest, most horrific jungle you 87 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,479 Speaker 1: can imagine, and everything that came with that, the jungle disease, 88 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:22,720 Speaker 1: the poisonous animals, honestly hostile tribes that many still exist 89 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: there to this day. A combination of jungle like that 90 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: with mountains that are as big as the Rocky mountains 91 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: the jungle. There are stories about Japanese rampant, stories about 92 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 1: Japanese cannibalism during World War II. The environment was so 93 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: horrific the men were starving so badly they started eating 94 00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: each other. Did you know over two hundred thousand Japanese 95 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 1: troops died in New Guinea in World War Two? Two 96 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 1: hundred thousand. It is fighting. Most people don't even know 97 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 1: about it. There's stories about men who would you'd be 98 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 1: humping up and down up through the jungle, but it's 99 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:08,600 Speaker 1: straight up and down where you're on your hands and knees, 100 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 1: you're on all fours trying to get to the top 101 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: of this single jungle path. There are stories of men 102 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 1: getting to the top and being so happy they finally 103 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: made it, they would weep with joy. It sounds like 104 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: a living hell. And speaking of the Japanese, you know 105 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: how they were all over the place. They were in India, Java, 106 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: they were obviously the Philippines. They were all over all 107 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 1: over for the Japanese, and they wrote about it. A 108 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: lot of them did. The worst place they had in 109 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 1: their empire that they were trying to defend and take 110 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,839 Speaker 1: over by a mile was New Guinea. New Guinea a 111 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:55,239 Speaker 1: combination of jungle warfare with mountain warfare. Oh my gosh. 112 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 1: And this, what I'm about to say, is going to 113 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: make a lot of people, a lot of military types 114 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: probably angry. And you're welcome to argue with me about this, 115 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: because this is personal opinion stuff. But I have always found, 116 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: at least in my own personal dealings and in my reading, 117 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 1: I have found mountain fighters. Mountain people to be the toughest. Genuinely, 118 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: you would think it might be jungle fighters as mountain fighters, 119 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: like if you, oh, please forgive me my fellow Marines. 120 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 1: But Mountain division mm hmm, you any any unit. There 121 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 1: are different seal units that specialize in mountain warfare. There 122 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: are different depending on which group you're in, different special 123 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: forces units. But the mountain warfare guys, they're always mocked 124 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: their by their veteran buddies because they got the worst assignment. 125 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: Because you're just hiking. You're humping up and down cluills, cliffs, 126 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: it's cliffs, it's cold, it's whatever. They always get mocked 127 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: for getting the worst assignment, but everyone kind of knows 128 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: in the back of their head those are the toughest 129 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: dudes they had. I'm so mad at myself. I can't 130 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,680 Speaker 1: think of it. I'm doing this on the fly. They 131 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,440 Speaker 1: referenced this a little bit in the HBO series Band 132 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: of Brothers. But the German troops there were many different, 133 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: very very elite German units, speaking of World War Two. 134 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: In World War Two, there were many elite German units, 135 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: and some of the most elite units would walk around 136 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: with a flower. They had a flower. I want to say, 137 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: is Aidelweiss a flower? I want to say it was 138 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: an Adelweiss flower. That may be wrong. I'm almost pauseive 139 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: that's what it is though. Either way. You had these 140 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 1: super tough troops and there are in these you know, 141 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 1: German army uniforms, and they would have a flower stuck 142 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: in their uniform. Well what was that flower? You? There 143 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: was some mountains somewhere that you had to crest, or 144 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 1: you had to get above a certain level as part 145 00:08:56,400 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: of your military training, and if you achieved to that, 146 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 1: you that was like a mark, a serious mark of admiration. 147 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: Guys would see that be like, oh crap, oh wait, crap, 148 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,959 Speaker 1: there's one of those guys that got the flower. It 149 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:13,719 Speaker 1: was a device, Yeah, it was right. It is Adovice anyway. Mountains, 150 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: the guys who've been through the mountain trials, the mountain tribulations, 151 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:23,560 Speaker 1: there are amazing stories and I mean really really incredible stuff. 152 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 1: The fighting in Italy was so much mountain fighting, and 153 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: of course the Italians couldn't defend anything, so the Germans 154 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: had to take it all over. And there are stories 155 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 1: because you're fighting on cliffs of guys they're attaching explosives 156 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 1: to string, and they're fighting vertically straight up or straight down, 157 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 1: and they're essentially dropping ex explosives on strings and swinging 158 00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 1: them back and forth until they try to swing it 159 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 1: into the cave opening. And we're talking mountain fighting like that. 160 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: It's wild, it's crazy, right, mountain fighting manh No thanks, 161 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 1: And then you combine mountain fighting with young fighting. No, 162 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:03,719 Speaker 1: I'm too old and fat. I would just die. I 163 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: would just fall over and die. My back hurts just 164 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: thinking about it.

I 202 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 1: like this, dude. I'll tell you if I lived in 203 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: San Diego, I know what church I've been going through. 204 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,199 Speaker 1: This sounds like a man after my own heart. 205 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 2: Tremendous option. We have as parents to make a difference 206 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 2: in the lives of our children, and if we're honest, 207 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 2: we know that much of that difference is made in 208 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 2: those early years. Many of the principles that we live 209 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,559 Speaker 2: by for all of our lives are ingrained into us 210 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:51,199 Speaker 2: when we're very small. So don't ever throw those years away. 211 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,760 Speaker 2: Don't ever say I'll wait until they're older. If you 212 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 2: do that, you will have waited too long. I'm going 213 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 2: to tell you something that's become very apparent to me, 214 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 2: and it might not make some of you happy when 215 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 2: I say this, but I really don't care. I'm going 216 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:09,079 Speaker 2: to say it because it's important. If you train off 217 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 2: your children for twelve grades and send them to a 218 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 2: private or secular school. 219 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 1: You will regret it. 220 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 2: You will be sorry you ever did it. I don't 221 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 2: know one school that has not been taken over by 222 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 2: the crazies and the communists and all the rest of 223 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 2: the people that are filling the heads with all that's 224 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 2: junken cause them to do what we're watching on television. 225 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 2: I can't imagine someone you love, you train them for 226 00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 2: twelve years or twelve grades, and then you say, okay, 227 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 2: why don't you go to Harvard. Harvard's a good school 228 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 2: that it used to be. Not anymore. It's full of 229 00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 2: woke people who just want to destroy your children, and 230 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 2: that will be the cause that happens. If I didn't 231 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 2: want to embarrass some people, I could tell you the stories. 232 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,439 Speaker 2: There are people in this church who I love who've 233 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 2: gone through that process, enamored with the intelligentia that's a 234 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 2: part of the big schools with the big names, not 235 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 2: realizing that when they send their child there their praying 236 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 2: Russian Roulette with their soul. There are other schools to 237 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 2: go to. There are Christian schools. There are schools where 238 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 2: this craziness doesn't happen. I'll tell you what, if my 239 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 2: children were at the age and getting ready to go 240 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 2: to college, I'd never send them to Harvard or Yale 241 00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:24,760 Speaker 2: or Pen. 242 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: I love this guy. Might want to take those words 243 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 1: to heart. Do you love Aiden, Jaden and Braden? And 244 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: I'm glad you do love them enough to not send 245 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: them to be educated by your mortal enemies. This is 246 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:47,640 Speaker 1: not nineteen sixty. Colleges are not liberal, that kind of 247 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:53,720 Speaker 1: left leaning. They are openly hostile, many of them to you, 248 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: to your babies, to your belief system, to everything. Do 249 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: you take your kids to the zoo and chuck them 250 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: in the gorilla enclosure? I don't, so don't send them 251 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:08,320 Speaker 1: to Harvard. Oh great crayon eating Oracle. I literally, why 252 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 1: do you guys have to do that? Met my hero today. 253 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: When people say the heroes of the past wars don't exist, 254 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 1: I just want to say they still exist. I met 255 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: and talked to Marcus Marcus Latrelle, aka the Loan Survivor. 256 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: He was talking about veterans' suicide. My mentality is completely 257 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: changed after hearing him talk. Thankfully, it's a commercial, so 258 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 1: hopefully all of America can hear what he has to say. 259 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: But my question is, how do you recommend helping veterans. 260 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 1: Have you thought about bringing some veterans on and letting 261 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: them talk about the transition to civilian life to help 262 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 1: us non military understand we might all need some chock 263 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 1: to get through this. You're welcome for the transition. No, 264 00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna tell you about chock right now. But look, first, 265 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 1: I'm not going to speak for all veterans. I'm not 266 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: some veteran's voice out there where I and every veteran 267 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 1: and how they all feel. I can simply tell you 268 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 1: about me, how I felt, how I feel, and how 269 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 1: many of the guys I served with how they felt 270 00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: and feel, depending on whether they're still alive or not. First, 271 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 1: and foremost, when you sign up to join the military 272 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: as a young man, you do so oftentimes. Yes, you 273 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: want to serve your country, you want to better yourself. 274 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: That both those things were true of me. Also, this 275 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: was true of me. I wanted some adventure. I want 276 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: an adventure. Young men, much of their mother's chagrin, young 277 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 1: men crave a little bit of danger. They do. They do. 278 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: It's how God made us. It's why they always march 279 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: off to war. Who marches off towards the young men. 280 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 1: It just it's their thing, it's our thing. It's what 281 00:16:54,720 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 1: we do. Well, I shouldn't say our. I'm not a 282 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 1: young man anymore anyway, but it's what we do. And 283 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: what happens is you join the military. I'll just make 284 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 1: it about the Marines, and they're going to grow you 285 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 1: up fast and you're going to find yourself very quickly. 286 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: At least I can only speak from my experience in 287 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 1: the Marine Corps. You are going to find yourself quickly 288 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 1: within a year or two, unless you're a turd or something. 289 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 1: You're going to be in a leadership position, a revered 290 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: leadership position where men under you must follow your orders 291 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: to the letter and they will. You are trusted with things, weapons, equipment, ammunition. 292 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:45,959 Speaker 1: You are given incredible responsibilities over things you are and 293 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,200 Speaker 1: I hate putting it this way, but I am. I'm 294 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:55,160 Speaker 1: just going to tell you you're important, and you feel important, 295 00:17:55,640 --> 00:18:01,679 Speaker 1: you feel significant, you matter, and you do. I at gosh, 296 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: I was twenty one or I was twenty two. I 297 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 1: think I was twenty two years old, and I was 298 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 1: in charge of ten men in combat. I was our 299 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: mortar section leader. By the time we left Iraq. It 300 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 1: was my section. I was a section leader. Ten men, 301 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 1: life or death mine. We're going out on a patrol 302 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 1: at night, me another NCO. You're leading the patrol. We're 303 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,879 Speaker 1: in charge at twenty two. And then I'll tell you 304 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 1: the other half of the story. Before i tell you that. 305 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: Let me do this really quickly here. Let me tell 306 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: you about what's happening with our money. It's not only bad, 307 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: it's getting worse. And we keep previewing things about inflation 308 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: and interest rates, and have you noticed something that they 309 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 1: keep saying things like, well, next year, the interest on 310 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 1: the debt's going to cost more than the military. And now, 311 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 1: because everything keeps going the wrong way, they're saying, well, 312 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 1: never mind, that's going to actually be this year too. 313 00:18:56,160 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 1: Things are not going the right direction monetarily. So we 314 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 1: have to do things to protect ourselves. Getting some precious 315 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 1: metals in your hands and in your retirement is a 316 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: basic way to do that. Not going crazy, doing some basics. 317 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 1: Just do some basics, the little things. Oxford Gold Group 318 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 1: will do these things for you. They will mail it 319 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,120 Speaker 1: to your front door. It's anonymous, it's insured. You don't 320 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 1: need a bank vault. We're just talking little coins here. 321 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: They'll get it in your retirement account and they'll make 322 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:33,880 Speaker 1: it easy. Eight three three nine gold, let's talk about 323 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,439 Speaker 1: this veteran stuff. Hang on, he doesn't care if you 324 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:44,040 Speaker 1: believe him, but he's right. Jesse Kelly, it is the 325 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 1: Jesse Kelly Show on a Friday, and ask doctor Jesse 326 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 1: Friday reminding you you can email the show and you 327 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 1: should Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com. So before we 328 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 1: get back to the politics, someone wants to talk about 329 00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: spending and this Biden Trump debate and many other things. 330 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 1: Before we get to that, we're talking a little bit 331 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 1: about veterans and veterans suicide and things like that. And 332 00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: I was just kind of going over how it feels. Okay, 333 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 1: so you're young, you sign up, you go fight, because 334 00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 1: the guys who are struggling with depression and suicide, of 335 00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 1: the guys who went over and fall, you go over 336 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: and you fight, and you're important. I really want to 337 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 1: stress that you're important. You remember you ever see that 338 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 1: movie First Blood? The first Rambo? Everyone thinks it's called Rambo, 339 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: but it's called First Blood. You ever see First Blood? 340 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,440 Speaker 1: Most people have seen First Blood. If you haven't he's 341 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 1: this green beret who comes back from Vietnam and gets harassed. Whatever. 342 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,439 Speaker 1: It's a great movie, how they recommend it. But at 343 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 1: the end, at the end, when his buddy's trying to 344 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 1: get him to turn himself in, he starts screaming about 345 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: I am mattered. I was important. I was in charge 346 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 1: of million dollar equipment, and now I can't even find 347 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:53,919 Speaker 1: a job parking cards for the guys I serve with. 348 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 1: For some of the guys I serve with, it wasn't 349 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 1: just the explosions and the blood and whatever. Was you 350 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 1: come back from that? Remember I told you I was 351 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: a mortar section leader, and I wasn't a good one. Okay, 352 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 1: I'm not bragging, believe me. But I was in charge 353 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 1: of the section. Ten men under my command. They're under 354 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 1: my charge in Afghanistan. At twenty two, I am a leader. 355 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,840 Speaker 1: When the leader of our company, he wants something done, 356 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 1: calls in the NCOs I'm one of them, I'm standing 357 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,120 Speaker 1: there in a small circle. You do this, and you're important. 358 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: Twenty two, you come back, you get out. You're not 359 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:36,439 Speaker 1: the same. Now, I would argue that you're you probably 360 00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 1: have prioritized the wrong things, but you think about this. 361 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 1: I want you to think about this, and what I'm 362 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:44,439 Speaker 1: about to say is no insult, no insult to blue 363 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 1: collar workers or whatever. But I went and did construction 364 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 1: when I got back. Okay, so I was twenty two 365 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 1: fifteen minutes ago, I was twenty two years old leading 366 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: men on night patrols in Baghdad. At one point in time, 367 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,760 Speaker 1: we were on a night with green berets in the 368 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 1: night in Bagdad with mvgs on fifteen minutes later. I'm 369 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: not only on a construction crew. I'm pretty much the 370 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:13,160 Speaker 1: low man on the construction crew. And if somebody needs 371 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:19,400 Speaker 1: the trash picked up, Kelly, pick up the trash. That's hard. 372 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 1: I cannot speak for women. I will not speak for 373 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: a women for men. We have this picture in our minds. 374 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 1: I certainly did I do. I'm no different, not separating 375 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 1: myself from this. Where throughout life our rank in society 376 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 1: or place in society, I don't know how I want 377 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 1: to put that. We just assume it's going to slowly 378 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:43,440 Speaker 1: and steadily go up. Yeah, you'll have this entry level job, 379 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: but then you'll keep your nose to the grindstone and 380 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: you'll work your way up and soon you'll be in management. 381 00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 1: Maybe one day you'll start your own business. Hey, look 382 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,280 Speaker 1: at that, I'm fifty years old. I bought a Mercedes. 383 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 1: Hey i'm fifty five. I fly for his class. Oh 384 00:22:55,960 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 1: we have a beach house now at sixty. Oh, I 385 00:22:58,200 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 1: retire one day and my wife and I are very 386 00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: comfortable down in boc over tone. You just have this 387 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,919 Speaker 1: picture in your head that you're slowly and surely in 388 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 1: your life. If it was one of those charts, it 389 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 1: would just slowly but surely you hit it, be heading 390 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 1: up up, up, up, up up up. But you go 391 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 1: do combat, all this responsibility, all this adventure, and you 392 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 1: come back and it doesn't feel like you went up. 393 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 1: It feels like now all that was for not and 394 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:30,360 Speaker 1: you're not really anybody anymore. That hurts. I will tell 395 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 1: you it affected me, it did. It bothered me a lot. 396 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,879 Speaker 1: The noises bothered me a lot. To this day. I 397 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 1: actually do not do that great with loud noises. I'm fine, 398 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:41,920 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm not gonna hide under the desk 399 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 1: and cry if a balloon pops. But I will tell 400 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,199 Speaker 1: you if if Chris and Michael were to actually do 401 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 1: something nice for me, for once, for my birthday or 402 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: something and blow up a bunch of balloons and put 403 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:54,359 Speaker 1: them in the studio, and then they started popping the balloons. 404 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,679 Speaker 1: I mean, I wouldn't cry or scream or yell, but 405 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 1: I would find an excuse to leave. Hey, guys, I 406 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:01,720 Speaker 1: gotta run to the story. You need anything. I would 407 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:03,919 Speaker 1: not do well with that. I just wouldn't. I wouldn't 408 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 1: do well with it. I still prefer the dark, ever, 409 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 1: sitting in the light. I just if I'm alone at 410 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 1: home there are no lights on. Ever, I like it 411 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:14,879 Speaker 1: in the dark. I don't know why. I don't know 412 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 1: what's wrong with me, and I am not putting myself 413 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: in the shoes of other guys who I mean, I 414 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: never had to hold my best friend and watch him die. 415 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: When you're a young man and you go through all that, 416 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 1: you can get yourself so twisted up and lost and 417 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 1: messed up, and then what else do you do? And 418 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: I did this too, is you turn to drugs or alcohol. 419 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 1: I didn't do the drugs, but booze, it's just drinking 420 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 1: all the time, just drinking and drinking and drinking. And 421 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 1: then it came back to me later on in life, 422 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 1: after I've shaken it drink and drink and drinking, and 423 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 1: finally ended up conquering those demons by the grace of God, 424 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 1: and only by the grace of God. But that makes 425 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:03,000 Speaker 1: it worse. So they go through all these things, and 426 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 1: what it really comes down to, what a lot of 427 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 1: it comes down to, is guys will convince themselves. Men 428 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:13,680 Speaker 1: will convince themselves that that awesome, admirable thing they did, 429 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 1: that it's the last great thing they'll ever do. There 430 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, they were twenty two and important. 431 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 1: Now they're twenty five and they're a garbage man. Not 432 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 1: that there's a daggun thing in the world wrong with 433 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,879 Speaker 1: being a garbage man, but you're a garbage man, or 434 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 1: you're on a construction crew like I was, or you're 435 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 1: backing groceries or whatever you're doing, and you feel like, well, crap, man, 436 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:39,879 Speaker 1: my friends are dead, I'm all messed up. I drink 437 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,159 Speaker 1: too much. I just did the last great thing I'm 438 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: ever gonna do. Hey, I'm checking out. That is why 439 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: when I talk to veterans, I practically scream this from 440 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: the rooftop. And if you're one of those guys listening 441 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: right now, and I'm sure there are more than one. 442 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 1: Listen to me, you did do something incredible. You did 443 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: you should be proud of it, and on the resume 444 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: of your life. Believe me, that's going to stand out 445 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 1: to people. Your kids one day will admire it. To 446 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:11,359 Speaker 1: this day. My old dress blues and the Marines, they 447 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 1: hang up high in my clause and I don't put 448 00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: them on, but my boys will look at them. My 449 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 1: boys will talk. I mean, that's dad. Well look at 450 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 1: that ribbons and stead. I mean for them, it's cool. 451 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,919 Speaker 1: But it is not the last good thing you have 452 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 1: to do in this life. It's a thing good. You did, 453 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 1: a great thing. You put it on your resume. God's 454 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 1: not done with you yet. I promise you cross my 455 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 1: heart and hope to die when your time is up. 456 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 1: Your time is up. No need to rush it. There 457 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,200 Speaker 1: was a show. I'm gonna move on to other things. 458 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 1: This can get a little heavy, so move on to 459 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,359 Speaker 1: talk about politics and spending and debates and things like that. 460 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 1: But there was a show I never watched in its completion. 461 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: I've had people ask me if you watched it. But 462 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,639 Speaker 1: it was called Generation Kill. I believe it was on HBO. 463 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 1: But Generation Kill. It was about our generation and the 464 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:06,000 Speaker 1: fighting and everything, and there was one young man who, 465 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 1: by all accounts, he just looked like a wonderful young 466 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 1: marine and just looked like a solid dude. And they're 467 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,440 Speaker 1: interviewing him one night, and he's sitting there and there's 468 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: explosions going on around him, and he's talking about how 469 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,199 Speaker 1: he's just ready to be out, he's ready to be done, 470 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 1: can't wait to get back home like any other young man. Hey, 471 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 1: I want to get back home and see my woman 472 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: and need a hot meal. And I went in and 473 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,120 Speaker 1: then something blows up behind him and he's like, I'm 474 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 1: tired of that too. And I remember watching it, and 475 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:36,360 Speaker 1: I remember thinking, man, I really hope that guy makes 476 00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: it back. I hope he makes it. I hope he 477 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: makes it back. And I hope. I hope he has 478 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 1: a wife one day and ten kids running around, and 479 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 1: you know, Bill's stacking up of course, and stresses of life. 480 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 1: But I hope, you know he's there, he's doing it. 481 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:53,360 Speaker 1: He's awesome, he's brave, he's a good dude. I hope 482 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:57,199 Speaker 1: he makes it. He oded about two months after, or 483 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: two years, two or three years after that little footage 484 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: was shot. He overdosed. He's gone. Now, gentlemen, don't check 485 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 1: out on us, all right?

De fritto Buntito, 515 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 3: you must not up in unch munch a bunch. 516 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 1: Of dear oracle of oratory opulence. I would fully support 517 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: your dictatorship and hutting almost all the federal government, But realistically, 518 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 1: how much of the government and it's spending would you 519 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 1: have to cut in order to start making a debt 520 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 1: in our national deficit and start running in the black again? 521 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 1: Do you know or know someone it's an economist, so 522 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: on and so forth. As name is Tony, and we 523 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 1: can dig into this more. If it's something that we 524 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 1: really want to get into the details of, we can 525 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 1: have on more budget experts. But let's just let's think 526 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: of it this way. Okay. So we're running now regularly 527 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 1: over a trillion dollar deficits. Now, remember, deficit and debt 528 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: are different things. Just for all the kids out there. 529 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: A deficit that's how much yearly you spend more than 530 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: you take in. So if I take in three trillion, 531 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 1: I spend four trillion, we have a one trillion dollar 532 00:30:54,440 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 1: deficit that year. The debt is different. The debt is 533 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 1: all of the deficits we've ever accumulated, all of our debt, 534 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 1: all lumped into one. Deficit is your yearly overspending. Debt 535 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: is your lifetime overspending. Okay, so here's why our situation 536 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 1: is so brutal and so scary. To be honest with you, 537 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 1: it's not only that we spend far more than we 538 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 1: take in. Now, it's that the government because politicians never 539 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,560 Speaker 1: want to have to make hard choices. That's the last 540 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 1: thing a politician wants to do. A politician never wants 541 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 1: to go to the voters and say, sorry, I've got 542 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 1: to cut you off from this. I've got to take 543 00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 1: away this that you're used to. Politicians love to give 544 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 1: away things. Vote for me, I'll give you this, vote 545 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 1: for me, I'll give you that. Because of that, over 546 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 1: the years, what they've done is have you ever heard 547 00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:58,960 Speaker 1: the terms discretionary spending or non discretionary spending. Let me 548 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 1: just go ahead and simply this for everybody. What they've 549 00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 1: done is they've made most of our spending mandatory mandatory, 550 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 1: meaning no matter what Congress does, it goes through period, 551 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 1: end of story. They've done that with the gigantic popular 552 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:20,560 Speaker 1: entitlements that everyone loves. I'm honestly, I'm done wasting my 553 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 1: breath on it. I'm just gonna wait till they go bankrupt, 554 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 1: and then I'll come on here on the radio, very 555 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,600 Speaker 1: obnoxiously and tell everyone I told you so. I've accepted 556 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:30,960 Speaker 1: the left and the right. They love Medicare and Social Security. 557 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,440 Speaker 1: They believe they'll be there forever. You're gonna get a 558 00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 1: whole bunch ironed it stuff, and then it's gonna collapse 559 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,440 Speaker 1: the United States of America. And I'll just sit there 560 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 1: and trug my shoulders and say, I told you so, 561 00:32:40,080 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 1: so I'm not wasting my breath on that again. But 562 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 1: that's one great example. If a politician, any politician, even 563 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:50,239 Speaker 1: hints that we have to adjust these programs before they 564 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 1: end America, that politician will probably lose his seat in office. 565 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 1: The reason I'm sitting here today talking to you on 566 00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 1: the Jesse Kelly Show, and I'm not a member of Congress. 567 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,320 Speaker 1: Is social Security? I went on camera and I said, 568 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 1: it is the largest Ponzi scheme in human history, which 569 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: it obviously is by any definition, and we have to 570 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 1: take steps to phase it out and privatize it. That's 571 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 1: what I said. That is the reason I lost in 572 00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,320 Speaker 1: a Tea party year by four thousand votes. I can't 573 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 1: tell you how many Republican old people came up to 574 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,240 Speaker 1: me and told me they voted for my Democrat opponent 575 00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 1: because of the commercials she ran on social Security. Any 576 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 1: politician who speaks about those issues in an honest way 577 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 1: will lose their seat in Congress Monday when I show up, what, 578 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,480 Speaker 1: Chris All, you have it? I'll go ahead. Yeah. 579 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 4: Is jesse Kelly listening to you? Was jesse Kelly listening 580 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 4: to you when he said on Social Security, I'd love 581 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:49,960 Speaker 4: to eliminate the program jesse Kelly said he would work 582 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 4: to eliminate Medicare over time. Was he listening to you? 583 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 1: Then? 584 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:56,920 Speaker 4: How about when Jesse Kelly said, at the same time 585 00:33:57,160 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 4: he'd cut taxes in half for millionaires. Is Jesse Kelly 586 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 4: listening to you? Just listen to Jesse Kelly. 587 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 1: We didn't make that up. Chris pulled that. It's still 588 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 1: available on YouTube. That was an ad on the television 589 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: set when you sat down. When I was running for 590 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 1: Congress in Arizona, people would watch that cost me my race. 591 00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 1: I'm not mad about it. I'd much rather be here. 592 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 1: But because the voters love those programs and that's going 593 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:25,880 Speaker 1: to end the country. The politicians know that. So what 594 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: they've done is they've taken it's not just those programs, 595 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:32,319 Speaker 1: it's other things, and they make it mandatory so they 596 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: can then go to the voters and say, I can't 597 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 1: do anything about it. All this is mandatory. We have 598 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:42,399 Speaker 1: realized this. The money we spend over eighty percent of it, 599 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 1: over eighty percent of it is mandatory. It would be like, oh, 600 00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,320 Speaker 1: let me explain. Let's say I made one hundred thousand 601 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 1: dollars a year and we were spending two hundred thousand 602 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 1: dollars a year. Oh my gosh, we're going to go broke, right, Oh, 603 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,400 Speaker 1: problems in the Kelly household. I'm making one hundred thousand, 604 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 1: I'm spending two hundred thousand. But through some weird thing 605 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 1: I've written into law, that it's a requirement that I 606 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:13,359 Speaker 1: spend one hundred and seventy thousand. So can I ever 607 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,800 Speaker 1: save myself if, no matter what, it's written into law 608 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 1: that I spend far more than I'll ever take in, 609 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:24,399 Speaker 1: it's not problem. They've made it a situation where it's 610 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 1: not legally possible to save the financial system. Does this why, 611 00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:33,799 Speaker 1: I tell you all the time, I don't know how 612 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,319 Speaker 1: you write the debt ship. I just thought there's no 613 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:38,360 Speaker 1: appetite for it in the country, and there won't be 614 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: until the social Security checks stop coming, and they will 615 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:45,840 Speaker 1: until Medicare stops being accepted, and it will until we 616 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 1: have collapse of these systems, and they will collapse because 617 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 1: no one wants to reform them, no one wants to 618 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 1: adjust them. Everyone wants to just promise handouts. So to 619 00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:00,400 Speaker 1: answer your question, we would have to You would have 620 00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:05,799 Speaker 1: to cut spending in half at least to eliminate the 621 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 1: deficit in this country, to truly eliminate the deficit. Now, 622 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 1: you can do that any way you want. Go look 623 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,480 Speaker 1: at a pie chart of the government. Cut this, cut 624 00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,520 Speaker 1: that little here, little there. Ideally, you do this stuff 625 00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: in phases so you're not destroying people. But you want 626 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:25,359 Speaker 1: to stop running a deficit, That's what it would take. 627 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 1: All right, let's talk about Joe Biden getting bounced at 628 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 1: the convention, homeschooling, and so much more.
