WEBVTT - Rush Limbaugh Mar 03, 2021

0:00:00.240 --> 0:00:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Stoke Dun, California, is amount to launch an experiment and

0:00:03.400 --> 0:00:07.160
<v Speaker 1>no strings, guaranteed basic income of five dollars a month

0:00:07.280 --> 0:00:11.840
<v Speaker 1>for its people to eliminate poverty. Supposedly. Now, they're going

0:00:11.880 --> 0:00:14.600
<v Speaker 1>to start with a select group of residents early next year.

0:00:14.640 --> 0:00:18.639
<v Speaker 1>Michael Tubbs, Stoke Dunes twenty seven year old mayor says

0:00:18.720 --> 0:00:20.759
<v Speaker 1>that those who get the free money are going to

0:00:20.840 --> 0:00:23.200
<v Speaker 1>be tracked and studied. He hopes that they'll collect enough

0:00:23.280 --> 0:00:26.440
<v Speaker 1>data in a few years to figure out the income

0:00:26.680 --> 0:00:30.400
<v Speaker 1>floor that people deserve. The money is not coming from

0:00:30.440 --> 0:00:34.800
<v Speaker 1>taxpayers yet. Yeah, the initial handout is from a group

0:00:34.840 --> 0:00:39.080
<v Speaker 1>calling itself the Economic Security Project. Facebook co founder Chris

0:00:39.200 --> 0:00:43.760
<v Speaker 1>Hughes also co founded this hair brain scheme. Now he

0:00:43.800 --> 0:00:47.680
<v Speaker 1>hopes taxpayers will eventually pay five hundred dollars amount to

0:00:47.840 --> 0:00:51.440
<v Speaker 1>every American earning under fifty thousand dollars a year so

0:00:51.520 --> 0:00:55.560
<v Speaker 1>that they can have income security. Now, as you would predict,

0:00:55.640 --> 0:00:58.320
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of Stoke Dun residents are drooling at the

0:00:58.360 --> 0:01:01.480
<v Speaker 1>idea to get free money. They're already sending letters and

0:01:01.520 --> 0:01:05.000
<v Speaker 1>emails to the young mayor begging to make the list. Now,

0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:08.880
<v Speaker 1>this is a special kind of stupid economic ignorance on steroids.

0:01:08.880 --> 0:01:13.600
<v Speaker 1>It's not income security, it's job security. For liberals, playing

0:01:13.680 --> 0:01:17.440
<v Speaker 1>Santa Claus with other people's money
