SOCIALISTS DEMAND $500 a month PAYMENTS to working Americans in low or middle incomes. Is this buying votes? · The Ben Ferguson Podcast

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: It lessens my bills. Yeah, there's your headline from the
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Associated Press. Five hundred dollars payments are now being tested
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: in upstate New York. This is also happening in other
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: places around the country. Now, when I say it's being tested,
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: let me explain to you what the Socialists Democratic Party
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: is doing. They're doing exactly what I warned you they
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: would do it. I told you they were going to
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: do it, and now they are doing it. There is
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: a individual the Associated Press decided to talk about, and
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: they start off their first sentence with this that this
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: person isn't destitute or unemployed, but for a year, she'll
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: receive five hundred dollars per month and no strings attached
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: payments as part of an experimental universal basic income program
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: in upstate New York. Did you hear me? Universal basic
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: income program meaning universe socialism in Upstate New York. Places
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: from Compton, California, to Richmond, Virginia are now trying out socialism.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: This socialism they're trying out is guaranteed income programs, which
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: gained more attention after the pandemic, and it put millions
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: of workers in a weird situation, some of them wanting
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: to work, some of them not wanting to work, some
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: of them being under employed they claim, or some of
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: them saying they don't feel safe to work, therefore they're
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: not going to work. So from California to Virginia to
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: New York, even in Seattle, in Washington State and others,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: we are seeing this now. This woman, Miss Steel, is
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: a special education school aide. This is a woman who
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: has a job. There's a woman who's getting paid now.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: She's getting her payments to a program in Ulster County,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: which covers part of the Caskill Mountains and the Hudson
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: River Valley. During the pilot program, one hundred county residents
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: making less than forty six nine annually, we'll get an
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: extra five hundred dollars a month for a year now.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: The income threshold was based on eighty percent of the
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: county of the county's average medium income meeting. It includes
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: both the poor and a slice of the middle class,
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: people who will face financial stress but might not originally
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: qualify for government aid based on income. In other words,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: we're going to do socialism, and we're going to raise
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: the amount of money you're allowed to make to then
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: get this socialist benefit. Now, of course they say, well,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: this isn't socialism. We're just doing research, right, This is
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: just research for researchers. The AP is trying to sell
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: you on this becoming normal. The pilot could give them
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: a fuller picture of what happens when a range of
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: people are sent payments that guarantee a basic living, in
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: other words, a basic level of living. For Steel, she's
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: fifty seven. She says it's a welcome financial boost that
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: helped her pay for car insurance and groceries. It lessens
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: my bills. She lives in a village of Ellensville with
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: her retired husbands. So, just to be clear about what
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: we're dealing with. Now, you've got a dude, a man
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: who's sitting at home who is retired. You got a
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: wife that works in the public school system, and I'm
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: assuming working and I'm assuming I don't know this, but
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: I'm guessing for a pension. She's making forty six nine,
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: she's gonna get an extra five grand. So if you
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: do the math on that, it's six there's six thousand
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: dollars a month. Okay, just to be clear, an extra
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: six thousand dollars a month or a year. Excuse me.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: So if you do the math on this, and I
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: want you to really think about what we're now advocating
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: for in this country and how this will absolutely fundamentally
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: change how this nation works. It will, it will change
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: it completely if you do the math. At forty six thousand,
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: nine hundred dollars is what she's making, plus another six
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: thousand bucks. She's now fifty two nine, with a pension
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: i'm assuming coming her way, and a husband who's already
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: at home retired, which means he's also getting money. It
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: lessens my bills. So we're not about actually helping people
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: in poverty because they're not in poverty. Hell, they got
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: a man retired at home. Right, this is about socialism.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Take from the rich, you're gonna give the poor. That's
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: how you pull this off. Right, You give poor people
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: this money through a pilot program. You tell them to
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: tell all their friends about it. They're going to vote
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: for socialism because hey, I got an extra six grand
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: and you would love it too. It lessens my bills.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: People think, because we've been working so many years, that
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: you make this tremendous amount of money, but no, Actually,
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: she goes on to sell the public less than one
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: hundred miles north of New York City, Ulster County is
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: a popular destination for weekend weekenders headed to Woodstock or
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: the Catskill Mountains. It's big city, Kingston is small, with
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: only twenty three thousand people. They go on to say
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: basic income programs elsewhere tend to focus on cities and contrast,
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: this upstate program stretches out over a mix of places
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: a city, small towns, and remote areas many miles from
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: bus lines and supermarkets, showing that this approach will work
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: not just in urban areas, but for rural parts of
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: the country, which we know is one of our big
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: national problems. I think there's great opportunity here, said Ulcer
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: County Executive Patrick Ryan. So see, we're now pushing socialism
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: outside of the city limits right in liberal cities. We're
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: now pushing it to the rural areas because that's where
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: we can grab some of these voters. This is buying votes.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: I want you to understand. This is nothing more than
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: buying votes and getting people addicted to a drug, which
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: is a government paycheck. It's a drug. It's just like crack,
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: it's just like heroin, it's just like LST. It's just
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: like marijuana. It's a drug. It's just like alcohol, cigarettes, tobacco.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: You get people addicted to this, right, you get people
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: add to this, and it's game on. Ryan saw cast
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: payments as a way to help local families struggling to
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: get ahead or even get by as a pandemic continues
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: to go on. Many people in the country were already
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: stretched in by housing costs before the pandemic, So hell'll
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: just give money, researchers say, they're coming together now to
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: see how it works. Researchers believe that they should study this,
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: and if they study it correctly, then they will know
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: exactly what to do. What do you think the research
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: is going to say. I'm just curious to these researchers
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: who were looking at these cash payments as a way
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: to help local families struggling to get ahead or even
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: get by. Many people in the country were already stretched
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: thin by the housing costs before the pandemic. With a
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: large influx, they say, of New York City residents led
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: to skyrocking real estate prices. All right, let's talk about
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: affordable housing real quick. Is there anything that says that
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: you have to live in New York? Is there anything
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: that says you have to live in California. Is there
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: anything that says that you have to live an extremely
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: high price housing market? For that matter, is there anything
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: that says that you have to be able to afford
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: to live in some of these places? I would argue
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: the answers no. I would argue that the answer is no.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: In fact, I know many people that don't live in
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: these areas for the exact reason that I just mentioned.
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: The reason why they don't live in these areas because
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: it's too expensive. In fact, I know people all the
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: time that move I know people all the time that
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: move away from states because it's too expensive to live
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: in those states. But there's a new push now, right,
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: you deserve to live in New York City, you deserve
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: to live in Connecticut, you deserve to live an upstate
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: A why or Z Right? You deserve to live in
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: those places. That's what you deserve. That's what they're selling.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: That's what they're saying you got to do. They're saying
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: you deserve all of that, and we're gonna help you
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: pay for it, because also that's what we do. We
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: help you pay for that stuff, and we're going to
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: give you a handout. Now, this is just socialism. They're
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: just slow selling it to you. There are a lot
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: of Americans that make not a lot of money. And
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: when I say not a lot, I'm talking about not
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: like six figures, right, There are a lot of Americans
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: that make less than six figures. It's true. There are
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: a lot of Americans that work paycheck to paycheck, and
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: a lot of them that work paycheck to paycheck, Let's
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: be very clear, do it on purpose. There's a lot
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: that work paycheck to paycheck that absolutely do it on purpose.
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: They deliberately choose not to save a single time, not
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: because they can't, but because they don't want to. Not
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: because they can't, but because they decide not to. They
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: deliberately choose not to do it. They specifically make a
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: decision to live paycheck to paycheck. They specifically make a
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: decision to not make smart financial decisions. You know, can
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: I can tell you a couple of different things that
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: I know to be true. I know people that are
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: poor living paycheck to paycheck. They make one hundred thousand
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: dollars a year because they choose not to save a
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: single penny. I know people that are that choose not
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: to make two hundred thousand, or that make two hundred
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: thousand or three under thousand. They live paycheck to paycheck.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: I know people that are actually quite wealthy and they
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: make forty five because they save and they invest, they
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: live under their means. I know people that make smart
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: financial decisions and bad financial decisions. And what you're saying
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: now is the government basically is arbitrarily decided that if
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: you have a certain amount of money that therefore you
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: don't really need that much. And the only way you
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: can pay for what they're experimenting with right now is
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: to take from those that work really hard or make
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: more money. And usually if you make more money, you
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: work really hard. Right, That's a that's not crazy to
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: think that. I want to make that very very very
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: very clear. So here we are experimenting with sending people cash,
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: not because they're destitute, and I'm quoting the ap article right,
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: not because they're destitute, but because we've decided that they
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: just need more of other people's money. Because the only
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: way you can do this if you mandate you take
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: other people's money. That's a fact, right, This is this
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: is about taking other people's money. Be very very very
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: very clear. You have to rob someone to pay for this.
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: We don't have the cash to do it without raising taxes.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: We don't have the money just randomly sitting around. Right,
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: it doesn't exist. It doesn't work that way, and everybody
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: should know that. Imagine if we start giving out these
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: checks the way the AP is putting this, it lessens
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: my bills. Is at the job of the government to
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: lessen your bills? Is that really the job of the
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: United States government? The first payments were made by the
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: way giving back to the article in mid May. Recipients
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: the money can spend it as a wish, but we'll
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: be asked to participate in periodic surveys about their physical health,
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: mental health, and employment status. So in other words, you
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: just tell them you're doing well, and then of course
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: they're going to say, well, we should keep doing this.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: The Center for Guaranteed Income Research the University of Pennsylvania,
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: which is school formed with the Mayor's Socialist Mayors for
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: a Guaranteed Income, is evaluating the pilot program, right, because
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: of course they're going to come back, and of course
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: they are going to tell you that when they come
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: back that this was so good for mental health, this
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: was so good for people. Right, this was the greatest
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: thing you could ever do. They're not going to tell
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: you it didn't work. Right. We're the socialist mayors for
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: guaranteed income, and we've got a university, the University of
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: Pennsylvania Vania, which is socialist, telling us that this is
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: exactly what we need to do. Recipient Eric Luna, at
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: twenty six year old electrical lab technicians, said the money
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: will help pay the bills at home he recently helped
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: his parents buy. In law kill, not a joke. The
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: money will help pay the bills at the home he
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: recently helped his parents buy. So we're now paying for
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: people to buy people homes because why not. He also
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: hopes set some aside, possibly for a master's degree. Let's
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: get all the rosy stories, folks. I'm also learning how
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: to save money as well, he said, So this will
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: be a learning experience. Really, we're now supposed to pay
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: for you to learn how to save money by giving
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: you extra money so you can save other people's money
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: that we stole from them. Because again, that is what
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: socialism is. You're gonna teach somebody how to save someone
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: else's money while someone else gets screwed. There were more
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: than four thousand, two hundred applicants for the program in
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: a county of one hundred seventy six thousand people. The
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: Center for Guaranteed Income Research, the co founder, Stacy West,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: who is evaluating more than twenty such pilot programs, is
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: interested in seeing how spending compared to cities like Stockton, California,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: where more than a third went for food. They claim, quote,
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: knowing what we know about barrier to employment, especially in
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: rural areas, we may see more money going towards transportation
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: than we've ever seen before in any other experiment. By
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: the way, this is a professor at the University Attendee
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: College of Social Work. Shoot me now, it remains to
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: be seen, she says. Proponents of Guaranteed in't come say.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: Recipients can decide how to spend the money, and that's
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: the most important point. Because they're in charge of the money.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: They can use it for food, job searches, or to
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: replace a refrigerator, or they could just spend it on
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: things that they won't mention the article, like beer or cigarettes,
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: or pod or filet mignon, or a vacation or a
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: new car or a car note, right, we won't put
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: any of that in there. Right, how much this was
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: just gonna go to like pure waste and abuse. They
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: may go get a new iPhone with this money, right,
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: because you can do whatever you want to. You might
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: get a new gaming system with this. You can do
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: whatever you want to. How you can go buy a
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: lotto tickets, you could go to the casino, you could
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: gamble more. But I'm sure we won't put any of
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: that in there, right, No, No, we won't put any
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: of that in the report. Proponents of the guaranteed income
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: say recipients can quote decide how they want the best
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: spend the money. So that's a good thing. They can
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: find that they can spend it on food or job searches. Yes,
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: because I'm sure there's a bunch of people that got
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: this money and immediately we're like, hey, let's do some
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: job searches. Right, Yeah, let's that's that's exactly what they're
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: going to spend the money on job searches, ord to
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: replace a refrigerator. The money can compliment the existing social
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: safety net, they say, or can be used as emergency
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: response when the economy starts tanking. I mean that that
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: is pretty darn interesting, isn't it. It's pretty pretty darn interesting.
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: It just it makes me laugh, It really does. It genuinely,
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: genuinely make me laugh. How much is this gonna be
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: spent on booze? How much is gonna be spent on
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: video games? How much is this gonna be spent on
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: like eating out? How many? How many? I mean, how
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: much money is gonna be just totally wasted? Now, the
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: end goal, they say, for a number of advocates, is
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: a universal basic income socialism. Anytime you hear the word universal,
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: it's socialism. They're now giving it a good algorithm or
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: good good, good name. Excuse me. They want you to
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: refer to it because it will sound scientific as a UBI,
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: which would distribute cash payments programs for you heard it,
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: all adults. I warned you this was going to happen
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: for all adults, all adults, for all adults. The UBI
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: idem help feel a stronger than expected Democratic presidential primary
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: run last year by Andrew Yang. This is how you
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: know socialism works when you sell it to people. At
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: least Andrew Yang, a guy that no one had ever
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: even heard of before, out of nowhere, becomes like some
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: sort of icon to young people because he said that
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: he was going to give a bunch of cash to people. Right,
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: give a bunch of money to people, And it certainly did.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: It helped him. People loved it. They were like, man,
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: this is a great idea. Yang is a guy that
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: said we need this. When he was running for president

  Speaker 1: last year, Yang proposed a thousand dollars a month for
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: every American adult. Now, of course that sounds great, right,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: And a lot of people voted for him in the primary.
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: And guy came out of nowhere to become somewhat of
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: a celebrity. Yang, who is a second home in Ulster County,
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: second home. Thing about that second home. Let's think about
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: that real quick, a second home. Just think about it,
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: is now running for New York City mayor with a
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: basic income proposal to help lower income residents get cash
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: every month no matter what Eventials say Yang hasn't been
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: involved in this Ulsters program, but that the nonprofit he founded,
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: Humanity Forward, was helping and sharing experiences on starting a
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: UBI pilot. Finally, the Associated Press puts this in their
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: article Critics of cash transfer programs worry about their ineffectiveness
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: and costs compared to aid programs at target funds for
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: food shelter or help raising children. Drake University Economists Economics
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: Professor Heath Anderson is concerned the program are the programs
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: miss need of your people less likely to apply, including
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: those without homes. It's a good point, by the way, Well,
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: there are times people might be benefit from a cash infusion,
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: the money is unlikely to address the structural issues holding
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: people back, like inadequate healthcare in schools. The Drake University
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: Economists also said, quote, if we keep thinking about the
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: remedying of poverty in terms of just throwing cash at people,
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: you're not thinking about the structures, the kind of reproduce
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: that reproduce poverty in the first place, and you're not
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: really solving the problems at all. Wait, hold on a second.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: So you're telling me that I could be right that
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: just handing out cash to people may actually do nothing
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: but just give them cash and they blow it on
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: stuff and it may not change the world. No way,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: you're telling me that's possible, that this five hundred dollars
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: a month, people just may just grab it and go
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: spend it and not save it and not change their life,
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: not change the way they do anything. You mean, if
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: you give irresponsible people who have a job or those
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: that don't have a job a bunch of money, you're
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: telling me you don't think it's going to change your life.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: How could this possibly be? But be clear, this is
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: not really about helping people. This is about redistributing wealth,
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: taking from people that you believe have too much money
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: and giving it to people that you believe deserve to
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: have more of your money. This is robbing Peter to
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: pay Paul. That is what this is, nothing more, nothing less.
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: This is robbing the rich and giving to the poor.
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: Maybe that's a better way of putting it. That's what
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: it is. That's what this is rob the rich. And
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: what is the definition of rich? Now it's not millionaires, folks. Okay, no,
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: that's not it's not millionaires. Okay, understand that it's not millionaires.
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: There's people that make a hundred thousand bucks, people make
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty thousand. This isn't this is not
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: We're no longer talking about people that make millions, right.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: We used to. We used to hate on the millionaires.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: That's who we used to really hate on. No, No,
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: this is anybody that basically just has a job, folks.
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: This is basically anyone that just got that has some cash,
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: and we're gonna take it from you, and we're gonna
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: redistribute it to those they don't have as much because
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: we bring you down while raising them up to the
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: same level that you're on, or we certainly at least
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: get you close to the same level. That's what we're
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: doing here. This is socialism. And if you don't think
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: people will vote for this, they will because they don't
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: even realize that they're voting for socialism, because all they
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: hear is, hold on a second, if I vote for
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: that guy, they're gonna give me five hundred dollars a month,
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: or a thousand dollars a month, no strings attached, no
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: monitoring of the money. I can do with it whatever
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: I want to do with it, Jackpot. Let's talk about
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: young people for a moment. Let's really really think about
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: young people for just a second. You don't think young
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: people are gonna go for this, They will, I promise you,
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: because they're gonna want to get out of school, whether
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: it's high school or college, it doesn't really matter, and
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: they're gonna want to get this cash. They're going to
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: want to do it. They're gonna want the cash big time.
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: They're gonna want this money, and they're gonna want it
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: right now, and they're gonna take the instant gratification and
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: are not going to think about the money coming from
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: them or how much harder it's going to be for
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: them down the road to actually be successful because the
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: government's sucking the life o the bank account each and
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: every day. Right, they're not going to do that, folks. No, no, no, no,
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: that they won't do no, sir, No, they're gonna they're
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: they're gonna just let it happen. It's just gonna happen. Folks,
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: vote for it. Take it here it is, here's your cash,
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: no strings attached. We want to do this forever. That's
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: what they said. They want to do it forever, indefinitely.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: This pilot program, they're gonna come back with some new
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: info for you, and the info, I'm going to tell
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: you exactly what it's going to say, because this is
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: not based in sciences, is based in propaganda. They're gonna
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: tell you it's gonna be amazing for the economy. They're
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: gonna tell you that it's gonna be amazing that without
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: it people are going to live in poverty. They're going
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: to tell you that people are going to live in
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: poverty and live a terrible life, and we have a
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: moral obligation to do this. And we saw incredible, a
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: credible transition of independence and freedom and happiness. Because you
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: notice what they're say they're studying with this right you
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: notice some of those keywords and phrases that they said
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: they were going to study with this mental health. They're
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: going to connect it to mental health. They're going to say,
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: we have a moral obligation based on mental health to
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: make sure that people have plenty of cash. And that's
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: the job of the United States government to give them that.
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: So if you're making fifty now you're gonna make fifty
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: six thousand. If you're making fifty six, we're now going
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: to pay you sixty two. It's just they're just going
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: to keep giving you the money. And there's going to
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: be a certain point, it's probably gonna be eighty grand
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: or one hundred grand where they're gonna cut it off,
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: and that's where they're going to tax the hell out
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: of you. And this is going to be a class
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: warfare issue. And as long as you do the math
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: on the number of voters who are under that threshold.
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: You can control every aspect of this country, and you
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: can suck the economic independence out of people's lives while
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: giving to people that aren't doing anything to deserve it.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: I'll say it again. Share this information because you cannot
