WEBVTT - Rush Limbaugh August 24th 2018

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:02.760
<v Speaker 1>My friends, there's a nationwide strike going on right now

0:00:02.759 --> 0:00:05.160
<v Speaker 1>that you probably have not heard about because it's happening

0:00:05.200 --> 0:00:10.440
<v Speaker 1>behind bars in jails and prisons all across the fruited plane.

0:00:10.640 --> 0:00:15.480
<v Speaker 1>Inmates are protesting what they call the prison industrial slave complex,

0:00:16.280 --> 0:00:20.920
<v Speaker 1>put together by the Incarcerated Workers Organizing Committee and jail

0:00:20.960 --> 0:00:25.319
<v Speaker 1>house Lawyers Speak. The strike started on Tuesday, August twenty two.

0:00:25.440 --> 0:00:28.960
<v Speaker 1>It goes till September nine, which is the anniversary of

0:00:28.960 --> 0:00:32.559
<v Speaker 1>the nineteen seventy one Attica, New York prison riot. Now,

0:00:32.640 --> 0:00:35.600
<v Speaker 1>the striking inmates had a lot of demands. They demand

0:00:35.640 --> 0:00:38.480
<v Speaker 1>to be paid the prevailing state wage for any work

0:00:38.560 --> 0:00:41.839
<v Speaker 1>they do. They demand pell grant money for college and

0:00:41.960 --> 0:00:45.720
<v Speaker 1>access to rehab services. They want an end to life

0:00:45.760 --> 0:00:49.400
<v Speaker 1>sentences and to sentences without the possibility of parole. They

0:00:49.440 --> 0:00:52.400
<v Speaker 1>demand never to be denied parole because the victim of

0:00:52.440 --> 0:00:55.840
<v Speaker 1>the crime, the crime they committed, was white. And of

0:00:55.840 --> 0:00:59.520
<v Speaker 1>course they demand that they retained their Democrat party voting right,

0:00:59.680 --> 0:01:02.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean voting rights. I shouldn't have said democratic part,

0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:06.520
<v Speaker 1>even though it's true. Obviously these striking inmates want to

0:01:06.520 --> 0:01:10.600
<v Speaker 1>make the prison experience great again, so why shouldn't they

0:01:10.959 --> 0:01:13.560
<v Speaker 1>have it all folks. I mean, they're being discriminated against

0:01:13.560 --> 0:01:21.360
<v Speaker 1>many minorities. America sucks. It all fits h
