1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:02,040 Speaker 1: Can't I am six forty. 2 00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:05,560 Speaker 2: You're listening to the John Cobel Podcast on the iHeartRadio app. 3 00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 2: We are on every day from one until four o'clock 4 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 2: and after four o'clock John Cobelt Show on demand on 5 00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,240 Speaker 2: the iHeart apps the podcast, so whatever you missed. 6 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:17,160 Speaker 1: We did a lot on. 7 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,800 Speaker 2: Charlie kirk shooting in the first hour, on the shooter 8 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 2: and the shooter's partner, the trans person who was going 9 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:32,919 Speaker 2: from guy to girl and is also a furry, and 10 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 2: we delve deeply into what furries are because furries have 11 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,479 Speaker 2: been connected to the last two major shootings before that 12 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:43,560 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago in Minnesota, the guy who 13 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 2: shot up the church and hit about twenty people and 14 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 2: killed two kids, and he was angry because his girlfriend, 15 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 2: who was a furry, he got. 16 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:53,000 Speaker 1: Sick of her. 17 00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 2: There are such sick subcultures that live on the Internet 18 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 2: and things that never existed when many of us were children, 19 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 2: and now they have blossomed, they have metastasized. This is 20 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 2: like all kinds of weird brain sicknesses, and everybody's demanding 21 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: civil rights for their weird mental illnesses. So that's what 22 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:21,320 Speaker 2: we did in the one o'clock hour. You should listen 23 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,040 Speaker 2: to that. Chrys Lacrosse coming on now. He's been with 24 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,800 Speaker 2: us quite a few times a journalist, and he's been 25 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 2: covering the Senate Bill seventy nine. This is a bill 26 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 2: that would override local zoning laws because in Sacramento, Scott Wiener, 27 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 2: Gavin us, some want to get rid of single family 28 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 2: housing and they're going to do it little by little. 29 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 1: This is a big step. 30 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 2: There's going to be neighborhoods who are going to see 31 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 2: single family homes disappear. Developers will buy the lots and 32 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 2: put up six stories, seven stories, maybe even nine stories. 33 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 2: And if you're it's in a half mile of a 34 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 2: transit stop, that's where the trouble starts and a lot 35 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 2: of people are because you just have to be half 36 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 2: mile near a major boulevard that has a bus stop 37 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 2: nearby and train stops as well. Let's talk to Chrys Lagron. 38 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: How are you, Chris good John? 39 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 3: How are you good? To hear from you? 40 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,239 Speaker 2: So there's no stopping this, huh. Gavin Newst actually is 41 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 2: going to sign this thing because this is evil stuff. 42 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,239 Speaker 3: He's one of the champions. And you remember, this is 43 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 3: the same legislature and the same governor that undercover of 44 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 3: darkness gutted SEQUA two months ago, so they're on quite 45 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 3: theear this year. 46 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 2: So really, so, I guess what's it going to mean 47 00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 2: in practical terms in somebody's life. Let's say they're a 48 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 2: half mile away from a boulevard that has a bus stop. 49 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 3: Well, for right now, the way the bill passed is amended. 50 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 3: You know, this is all about incrementalism, So right now 51 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 3: your average bus stop doesn't fall under SP seventy nine, 52 00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,800 Speaker 3: although they will very quickly expand and amend it in 53 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 3: the coming sessions and the coming years. Right now, it's 54 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,639 Speaker 3: mostly light rail, heavy rail and certain categories of bus 55 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 3: stops that are known as bus rapid transit, and they're 56 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 3: really focusing. They're really hitting Southern California herd. I mean, 57 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 3: Bay Area lawmakers never underestimate how Bay Area lawmakers just 58 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 3: have it out to Southern California, LA and southern California 59 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 3: have always been even though we're the population center and 60 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 3: the economic center of the state, we've always been the 61 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 3: redheaded step child when it comes to California politics and lawmaking. 62 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 3: So the way this bill in its final form, by 63 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 3: the way Scott Wiener had to amend this bill fourteen times, 64 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 3: or I should say it had to be amended fourteen 65 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 3: times just to get across the finish line, quite literally 66 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 3: in the last hours of the last day of the session. 67 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 3: And just as an aside, that shows you how thoroughly 68 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 3: undemocratic this process has been. Because if you spend nine 69 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 3: months and you barely get across the finish line like 70 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 3: two votes, that's not democracy. That is backroom dealing. That's 71 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 3: wheeling and dealing. That's given these lawmakers whatever they need 72 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,600 Speaker 3: in exchange for their vote. So on top of everything else, 73 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 3: it was a very intentionally opaque process. But if you're 74 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 3: in southern California and particularly Los Angeles or San Diego, 75 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 3: Orange County, and you're within a half mile of a 76 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 3: metro stop, you could see in your single family or 77 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 3: even a small multi family neighborhood minimum of five stories 78 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 3: and actually, with what's called density bonus, some of these 79 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 3: buildings within a quarter mile could be up to fifteen stories, 80 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 3: and you could have ten stories within a hat. So 81 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 3: it's not even what's in the bill. You have to 82 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 3: piece everything together like a jigsaw puzzle to get to 83 00:04:58,680 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 3: the final result. 84 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 2: You're in a single family home, and you have another 85 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,719 Speaker 2: single family home next to you. Let's say it's one story, 86 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,799 Speaker 2: like a ranch style home. That lot could be purchased 87 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 2: by a developer and he'll put up up to fifteen 88 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 2: stories of apartments on the same lot. 89 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 3: Yep. 90 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 2: In a regular neighborhood, like it's just something like Oak Street, right, 91 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 2: and everybody's living and minding their own business. They have 92 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 2: ordinary looking, middle class holms. All of a sudden, you 93 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,280 Speaker 2: have a fifteen story apartment building there. 94 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. 95 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 3: And the neighborhoods that are going to get hit first 96 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 3: and worst are working class and lower income neighborhoods because 97 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 3: that's where the land is cheaper, obviously, and that's where 98 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 3: there tends to be more transit service, even though nobody 99 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 3: really uses it. So the places that are going to 100 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 3: get hit first and worst are the very places that 101 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 3: these self righteous progressive democrats otherwise to care claim to 102 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 3: care so very much about. Those are the people who 103 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,839 Speaker 3: are going to get screwed first and the hardest. 104 00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: And these people don't know what's coming. 105 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:04,839 Speaker 3: No, no, there's no public outreach requirement, there's no notification requirement. 106 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 2: No, of course not. 107 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:08,919 Speaker 3: And by the way, the city will be on the 108 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 3: hook for all the services. So you take a single 109 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 3: family house replaced that, well, let's say let's just go minimum. 110 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 3: Let's say a seven story apartment building, and you've got 111 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 3: one hundred units in that seven story apartment building. The 112 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 3: city of Los Angeles, not the state of California, will 113 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 3: be on the hook for the sewage service and the 114 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 3: water service, and the power service and all the rest 115 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 3: that's necessary to service that building. Sacramento's not going to 116 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:38,799 Speaker 3: pay for that. So they're doubly screwing the cities. They're saying, 117 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 3: you have no control over this kind of growth within 118 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 3: your boundaries. Oh and by the way, you have to 119 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 3: pay for it. 120 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: Are there parking space requirements? 121 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 3: No? No, And there's a single law that says developers 122 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 3: can replace parking spaces with bicycle racks, So you could theoretically. 123 00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 4: Get what imaginary world, are they living in bicycle wrecks 124 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,480 Speaker 4: and encouraging people to take buses. 125 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: Nobody's gonna do that. 126 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 3: Of course, not. Eighty three percent hate Californians. Eighty three 127 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 3: percent of Californians of all backgrounds, of all income levels, 128 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 3: all walks of life live in single family houses, duplexes, townhouses, 129 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 3: or small apartments with nine or fewer units. That's US 130 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 3: Census Bureau data, eighty three percent. And so the legislature 131 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 3: has just declared war on eighty three percent of Californias. 132 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 2: I can't believe there's gonna be blowback about this when 133 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 2: people start and start waking up and they're seeing huge 134 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,520 Speaker 2: apartment buildings with no parking spaces for them, and all 135 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 2: the extra traffic that's going to come, and then God knows, 136 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 2: God knows who they're going to be renting to. I 137 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 2: have a feeling it's not going to be the same 138 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 2: demographic that's currently owning the homes. 139 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 3: Well, you know, talking about blow back, there are actually 140 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:06,040 Speaker 3: some uncanny parallels between what's emerging in California today and 141 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 3: the situation in California in the early seventies that culminated 142 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 3: with Prop thirteen. You've got massive increases in housing costs 143 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 3: in a short period of time, stagnant wages. That's where 144 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 3: we got stagflation. Well, here we are in twenty twenty five. 145 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 3: We're in stagflation two point zero. Here in California. We 146 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 3: create five low paying jobs for every decent middle class 147 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 3: or above middle class job, but we create so we've 148 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 3: created Stagplation two point zero, massive government waste that was 149 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:36,319 Speaker 3: a big thing in this said, that's one of the 150 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 3: key contributors to Prop thirteen. So today it's you know, 151 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 3: the bull trained public tensions, the homelessness industrial complex, and 152 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 3: at the same time government actually making the whole situation. 153 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 3: Where so the stars are aligning for a massive blowback 154 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,200 Speaker 3: that I think is going to make Prop thirteen look 155 00:08:55,400 --> 00:09:00,200 Speaker 3: like child's play. And there's already a movement out there 156 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 3: to amend the California State Constitution to get rid of 157 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 3: all this crap in one fell swoop, because it would 158 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:11,320 Speaker 3: amend that it's called our Neighborhood Voices, and it would 159 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 3: amend the California State Constitution to restore local control that 160 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 3: is city and county control, and local Planning Department control 161 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 3: of rezoning, land use and development, and of course the 162 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 3: constitution Trump's statue. So with one fell swoop, one ring 163 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,720 Speaker 3: to rule them all, that would just like Prop thirteen 164 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 3: did with local property taxes, this constitutional amendment would almost 165 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 3: be like Prop thirteen two point zero.

And you can see 186 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 2: the people in Palisades were so terrified at this and 187 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 2: they were fighting to get exempted. He is a monster, 188 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 2: Scott Wiener who writes these things as a monster. Also 189 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 2: all this, they do have time, though in Sacramento to 190 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 2: pass a bill which is banning federal immigration agents from 191 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 2: wearing masks, believe it or not. And you know they 192 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 2: have all kinds of hysterical rhetoric as to why this 193 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:20,320 Speaker 2: is justified. They passed this bill. They cannot cover their 194 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 2: faces while interacting with the public, and they don't know 195 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 2: if something is going to sign it or not. We're 196 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 2: looking at the constitutionality of it. Here's the constitutional constitutional question. 197 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 2: There's something called the supremacy caulk, the supremacy clause. Federal 198 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 2: law overrides state law. You can't design a dress code 199 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 2: for federal immigration agents. For federal law enforcement. These people 200 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 2: in Sacramento, this is performative nonsense. They're a bunch of nitties. 201 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 2: You can't tell the federal government how to dress their 202 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 2: law enforcement officers. Your bunch e attention hungry wind bags, 203 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 2: vawyeur rhetoric. I'm just astonished they're wasting all this time. 204 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 2: The way not to encounter an immigration agent is don't 205 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 2: be here illegally. Like every other nation on the planet, 206 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 2: if you're breaking the law and you're here illegally, you 207 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 2: may encounter a law enforcement agent from the federal government. 208 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 2: So don't stay here. It's time to go. Hasn't the 209 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,839 Speaker 2: message gotten through yet? And they can't wear masks. Oh, 210 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 2: they can't wear masks, So the agent can be dosed 211 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:51,560 Speaker 2: and their family could be terrorized.

You can't say anything you want at work, 341 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 2: you can't post anything you want. Your employer can take 342 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 2: any action they wish if they don't like it. Are 343 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 2: people shout free speech? They have no idea what that 344 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 2: concept means. It means the government can can't stop you 345 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:29,680 Speaker 2: from speaking that. The government can't punish you a workplace 346 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 2: definitely can if they think you're making their business look 347 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,920 Speaker 2: bad and you're going to hurt their business in some way, 348 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,720 Speaker 2: then of course they can suspend you, or fire you, 349 00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 2: or publicly reprimand you. The people, but I guess you 350 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 2: know they don't even teach this in school, like exactly 351 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 2: what the Constitution says. No, we don't have a right 352 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 2: to free speech twenty four to seven wherever we want 353 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 2: without consequences. 354 00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:00,879 Speaker 1: There's plenty of consequences, good lord. 355 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 2: And the people screaming about it now were the people 356 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 2: doing the canceling a few years back. It's the same people. 357 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 2: They're the ones shouting f Charlie Kirk, And now they're 358 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 2: squealing that they've been canceled. 359 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 5: Good lord, you're listening to John Cobels on demand from 360 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:22,919 Speaker 5: KFI six. 361 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: You know. 362 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom tries to mislead everybody in thinking that California 363 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 2: is this huge success because we have one of the 364 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 2: largest economies in the world, fourth largest, he claims, if 365 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 2: it was its own country, except that as extremely overweighted 366 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 2: in one direction towards the tech companies Google, Apple, Meta, 367 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 2: and VideA. That's for the Magnificent seven, which is for 368 00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 2: the largest companies and the most valuable companies. These companies 369 00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 2: are worth the trillions of dollars in market capitalization, and 370 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:05,879 Speaker 2: they're here in California, they're headquarters. So California gets credit 371 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 2: for producing all that revenue, all that economic output, but 372 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 2: a lot of it's from for those companies, those four companies. 373 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 2: The rest of the state, well, there's seven million people 374 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,280 Speaker 2: who live in poverty in California, and that is not 375 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 2: only the largest number of any state, it is the 376 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 2: highest rate of poverty in the nation, the highest rate 377 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 2: of poverty, not just total cases. 378 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 1: Because we're the biggest state, we. 379 00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 2: Are tied with Louisiana for number one, number one with Louisiana. 380 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 2: That's the real state of the California economy. And how 381 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 2: much do you think that poverty is aggravated by having 382 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 2: by far the highest electricity prices in the state and 383 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 2: by far the highest gas prices in the state. Electricity 384 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:04,360 Speaker 2: price is double most other states. Gas two dollars more 385 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:10,160 Speaker 2: than many other states. This is from US census data 386 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 2: that was analyzed by the California Budget and Policy Center. 387 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 2: Seventeen point seven percent of the state lived in poverty. 388 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 2: And they don't Those seven million people don't have the 389 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 2: resources to meet their basic needs. We have the worst unemployment, 390 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 2: the highest electricity prices, the highest gas prices. 391 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 1: It's the worst job market in the country. 392 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 2: And then he blows his gas about, Oh, I've got 393 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:51,159 Speaker 2: the fourth largest economy. It's the tech companies. Yeah, he 394 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 2: had nothing to do with that. Google and Apple and 395 00:26:56,280 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 2: Meta and Nvidia. They conduct all their business without any 396 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 2: Gavin Newsome input. 397 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: And I hear people. 398 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 2: Repeating that nonsensus, this statistic over and over again. Sure, 399 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 2: I read that, you know, an average engineer at Facebook 400 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:16,399 Speaker 2: is making four thousand dollars a year. I see that 401 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 2: they are signing AI geniuses for two hundred and fifty 402 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 2: million dollar contracts. They're gonna be getting paid like baseball 403 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:35,159 Speaker 2: or basketball players. Yeah, they're doing great, but if you're 404 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 2: in poverty, you try pay five five dollars a gallon 405 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 2: for gas. 406 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: Unbelievable what he gets away with. 407 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:48,199 Speaker 2: Conway's up next.
