<v Speaker 1>punch did it? Thank you? Thanks very much, Harbor. Hold

0:00:12.800 --> 0:00:16.639
<v Speaker 1>what is sucker punch? Dittos? Well, sucker punch is just

0:00:16.680 --> 0:00:20.480
<v Speaker 1>instead of saying hello, Mary Christmas, I feel sucker punched

0:00:21.120 --> 0:00:24.720
<v Speaker 1>by the election. I'm calling from the lady from two

0:00:24.760 --> 0:00:28.479
<v Speaker 1>calls ago when you were talking about a reaction the

0:00:28.560 --> 0:00:31.040
<v Speaker 1>next day, the next week. You know, it's like a

0:00:31.120 --> 0:00:34.640
<v Speaker 1>sucker punch, babe, And you know this is how this

0:00:34.720 --> 0:00:37.560
<v Speaker 1>country was what seventy one years ago, although you wouldn't

0:00:37.600 --> 0:00:40.800
<v Speaker 1>know about the news today because nobody wants to talk

0:00:40.800 --> 0:00:44.240
<v Speaker 1>about Pearl Harbor and what where our country was then.

0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:48.120
<v Speaker 1>But let's go to the present, okay, and I'll tell

0:00:48.159 --> 0:00:53.320
<v Speaker 1>you you know this and just everything you just said

0:00:53.320 --> 0:00:56.880
<v Speaker 1>about women and looking at it. Oh, you're so right,

0:00:56.920 --> 0:00:59.800
<v Speaker 1>You're so right. And this is my Merry Christmas present

0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:04.800
<v Speaker 1>myself just talking with you because you I don't know

0:01:04.920 --> 0:01:11.759
<v Speaker 1>where we just pray for your daily effort. Well, thank

0:01:11.800 --> 0:01:15.200
<v Speaker 1>you very much because I need it and I appreciate

0:01:15.160 --> 0:01:18.920
<v Speaker 1>you must be so worn out because we're worn out.

0:01:19.400 --> 0:01:23.600
<v Speaker 1>But ba Dolly, you know and for me, I've got

0:01:23.640 --> 0:01:28.399
<v Speaker 1>two two boys military. One just came back. When you

0:01:28.480 --> 0:01:31.880
<v Speaker 1>stand with your kids at Arlington and he's buried one

0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:35.360
<v Speaker 1>of his men. Okay, you get it. You get what

0:01:35.400 --> 0:01:38.639
<v Speaker 1>we're fighting for and what the people before us have done,

0:01:39.560 --> 0:01:44.920
<v Speaker 1>and we we cannot quit. I am scared. I am,

0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:49.440
<v Speaker 1>I am realistic. I am in the real world, and

0:01:49.480 --> 0:01:53.320
<v Speaker 1>I think we were sucker punched with the stimulus. We

0:01:53.400 --> 0:01:57.320
<v Speaker 1>came so close to closing down Obama Care. But I

0:01:57.440 --> 0:01:59.800
<v Speaker 1>know that's not what you're sucker punched about. Let me try.

0:01:59.880 --> 0:02:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Let's let me help out, because I know correct me

0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:06.200
<v Speaker 1>if I'm wrong, but I don't think I am. What

0:02:06.560 --> 0:02:12.240
<v Speaker 1>really has you flabbergasted is the scary thought that we've

0:02:12.280 --> 0:02:16.000
<v Speaker 1>lost the country. But of the people who vote a

0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:22.120
<v Speaker 1>majority believe this crap, you're you're and you're one. How

0:02:22.160 --> 0:02:25.200
<v Speaker 1>in the world we change that? How do we reach

0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:28.280
<v Speaker 1>these people? That's what you're frustrating. Will never do it

0:02:28.440 --> 0:02:30.639
<v Speaker 1>with public schools. I've come out of the public schools

0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:34.640
<v Speaker 1>as a teacher for the last years, and your your

0:02:34.840 --> 0:02:37.080
<v Speaker 1>remarks on that have been right on, and I have

0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:39.320
<v Speaker 1>said that it's a wonder we still even have a

0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:44.680
<v Speaker 1>chance when those seniors votes in an election because they

0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:50.760
<v Speaker 1>do all voting. I'm telling you it's vote as demos.

0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:54.800
<v Speaker 1>How can we fight that? That's been going on for years?

0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:59.560
<v Speaker 1>They come out program well, a lot of people have

0:02:59.600 --> 0:03:05.799
<v Speaker 1>been making that events just by themselves as an example,

0:03:05.960 --> 0:03:11.959
<v Speaker 1>living through such a horrible economy with so few job prospects,

0:03:12.320 --> 0:03:16.000
<v Speaker 1>many people have been thinking that would do it. And

0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:22.160
<v Speaker 1>the real, sobering, shocking reality is that it doesn't. That

0:03:22.919 --> 0:03:26.040
<v Speaker 1>we have two things. We have a welfare we have

0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:29.480
<v Speaker 1>we have a Santa Claus president who is providing what

0:03:29.560 --> 0:03:34.200
<v Speaker 1>work used to provide, and a media which is blaming

0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:38.360
<v Speaker 1>people have nothing to do with this for the problem.

0:03:38.400 --> 0:03:42.000
<v Speaker 1>And you are scratching your head, like everybody, how do

0:03:42.080 --> 0:03:46.360
<v Speaker 1>we penetrate this? How do we stop this? Because you're

0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:48.680
<v Speaker 1>like every you don't want to see the country no

0:03:48.720 --> 0:03:50.720
<v Speaker 1>matter what happened this election, you don't want to give

0:03:50.720 --> 0:03:54.520
<v Speaker 1>it up. You call here talking about Pearl Harbor. Pearl

0:03:54.520 --> 0:04:00.600
<v Speaker 1>Harbor was nineteen one. Pearl Harbor probably isn't much, and

0:04:00.640 --> 0:04:07.360
<v Speaker 1>if it is, my fear is that it is really

0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:10.880
<v Speaker 1>downplayed as as an event, and it may even be

0:04:11.600 --> 0:04:14.680
<v Speaker 1>a vehicle for teaching how horrible this country is with

0:04:14.760 --> 0:04:19.279
<v Speaker 1>nuclear weapons in the public school system. Pearl Harbor is

0:04:19.279 --> 0:04:25.440
<v Speaker 1>probably a gateway for some anti war teacher to say,

0:04:25.480 --> 0:04:28.400
<v Speaker 1>it was Pearl Harbor the United State, it's overreacting and

0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:31.160
<v Speaker 1>killing innocent people with two nuclear bombs, and blah blah

0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:34.560
<v Speaker 1>blah blah blah, and the true nature Pearl Harbor, what

0:04:34.600 --> 0:04:40.680
<v Speaker 1>it meant, and what it revived. Pearl Harbor was the

0:04:40.760 --> 0:04:43.840
<v Speaker 1>catalyst for bringing this economy back out of f d

0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:49.520
<v Speaker 1>r's stagnation due to the New Deal. Pearl Harbor awakened

0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:55.240
<v Speaker 1>a great country and allowed this country to show what

0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:59.520
<v Speaker 1>it's made of and what it could again in liberating

0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:05.039
<v Speaker 1>millions of people, millions of oppressed people from tyranny. And

0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:11.720
<v Speaker 1>now you see people in this country unwillingly, you hope,

0:05:12.520 --> 0:05:19.320
<v Speaker 1>voting for a modified tyranny, voting for an ever expanding

0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Washington d C would ever expanding power over the individual.

0:05:26.120 --> 0:05:33.920
<v Speaker 1>You see developing a totally different relationship between citizen and government,

0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:40.240
<v Speaker 1>and you're scared to death. You think that a pretty

0:05:40.240 --> 0:05:45.360
<v Speaker 1>good shot was spent fighting this. A fairly decent effort,

0:05:45.400 --> 0:05:48.520
<v Speaker 1>not the best, but a fairly decent effort was made

0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:51.160
<v Speaker 1>in repelling it and beating it back, educating people it's

0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:55.000
<v Speaker 1>the wrong way to go, and it didn't work, and

0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:57.960
<v Speaker 1>so you're at your wits end. Everything you believe in

0:05:58.080 --> 0:06:01.200
<v Speaker 1>you think people are laughing at everything you believe in,

0:06:01.279 --> 0:06:05.599
<v Speaker 1>you think people I don't think is important anymore. Everything

0:06:05.640 --> 0:06:08.840
<v Speaker 1>you believe in, you think, you get the impression that

0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:13.320
<v Speaker 1>that people mock. And so you're tennis is the heck

0:06:13.360 --> 0:06:16.279
<v Speaker 1>with it? You know, why? Why why should I care anymore?

0:06:16.680 --> 0:06:22.640
<v Speaker 1>But as much as you'd like to quote unquote tune out,

0:06:22.720 --> 0:06:25.400
<v Speaker 1>you can't because you do care too much and it

0:06:25.440 --> 0:06:28.440
<v Speaker 1>does matter too much. And you're not quitters. I mean

0:06:28.440 --> 0:06:30.720
<v Speaker 1>you're talking to Pearl Harbor to me, you're not a quitter.

0:06:31.480 --> 0:06:34.239
<v Speaker 1>So I know that you're always going to be counted.

0:06:34.400 --> 0:06:39.480
<v Speaker 1>This is from Daniel Helper at the Weekly stand of

0:06:39.560 --> 0:06:45.520
<v Speaker 1>It's actually according to the Senate Budget Committee Welfare Spending.

0:06:46.760 --> 0:06:48.880
<v Speaker 1>Let me relate this to Pearl Harbor. If I may

0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:56.760
<v Speaker 1>seventy one years ago December, or as f DR said, December,

0:06:56.839 --> 0:07:01.839
<v Speaker 1>some nane to imploy won't all day which we're living

0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:11.080
<v Speaker 1>in Boma, n seventy one years ago. Whenever we went

0:07:11.120 --> 0:07:15.280
<v Speaker 1>to war to defend our country from tyranny, we were

0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:21.040
<v Speaker 1>attacked from outside. Now we are watching it being given away.

0:07:24.800 --> 0:07:28.400
<v Speaker 1>All throughout the Great Depression into World War Two, we've

0:07:28.640 --> 0:07:35.040
<v Speaker 1>fought to liberate people from tyranny, from oppression. Country that

0:07:35.120 --> 0:07:39.240
<v Speaker 1>stood for freedom and rugged individualism. And you know, it's

0:07:39.280 --> 0:07:41.160
<v Speaker 1>it's it's a term that gets thrown around. I actually

0:07:41.200 --> 0:07:47.160
<v Speaker 1>think this is probably tests negatively entrepreneurial. I think it

0:07:47.240 --> 0:07:50.080
<v Speaker 1>almost if I had to guess the Democrats focus group

0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:53.360
<v Speaker 1>that word, and it tests negative like the rich tests negatively.

0:07:54.040 --> 0:07:58.320
<v Speaker 1>So it probably ought to stop using it. But look

0:07:58.320 --> 0:08:01.920
<v Speaker 1>at what we've become here. According to the Senate Budget Committee,

0:08:02.680 --> 0:08:11.000
<v Speaker 1>welfare spending per day per household in poverty is one dollars.

0:08:11.040 --> 0:08:15.960
<v Speaker 1>That's higher than the one seven dollar medium in a

0:08:16.080 --> 0:08:19.320
<v Speaker 1>median income per day. Now, when you break that down

0:08:19.960 --> 0:08:23.960
<v Speaker 1>per hour, welfare spending per hour per household in poverty

0:08:24.040 --> 0:08:29.840
<v Speaker 1>is thirty dollars. That's higher than the median income per hour.

0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:35.280
<v Speaker 1>We're spending a hundred sixty eight dollars every day for

0:08:35.400 --> 0:08:37.959
<v Speaker 1>every household in poverty. And by the way, we're not

0:08:38.240 --> 0:08:45.319
<v Speaker 1>eradicating it. We are spending more in poverty than the

0:08:45.400 --> 0:08:48.920
<v Speaker 1>median income in this country. In other words, we are

0:08:49.120 --> 0:08:53.720
<v Speaker 1>giving more money away than the median family is earning.

0:08:55.720 --> 0:09:01.040
<v Speaker 1>What's gonna happen. That's a tipping point. Figures why work

0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:07.080
<v Speaker 1>I can get more not working, and welfare benefits are

0:09:07.080 --> 0:09:12.120
<v Speaker 1>not taxed. In addition, now this is said to be compassionate.

0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:16.040
<v Speaker 1>This is said to be caring for the downtrodden. It's

0:09:16.080 --> 0:09:21.480
<v Speaker 1>not compassionate. This is consigning people the lives far less

0:09:21.480 --> 0:09:23.920
<v Speaker 1>than what they could be on their own. But we

0:09:24.080 --> 0:09:29.400
<v Speaker 1>get just it's insensitive to say that, mean and all

0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:32.400
<v Speaker 1>that that's an amazing stat to stab it's a figure
