- 0:03Speaker 2: Hey, thirty fifty five KRCD Talk station, Happy Friday. Another
- 0:08Speaker 2: website you should book mark the Ohio Pressnetwork dot com.
- 0:12Speaker 2: It's a good news stump site. And also some writing
- 0:15Speaker 2: from our guests every Friday at this particular time. The
- 0:18Speaker 2: man who runs a site, it's his site. Jack Windsor
- 0:20Speaker 2: from the Ohio Press Network, Welcome back to the morning show,
- 0:22Speaker 2: my friend. Happy Friday to you, Brian.
- 0:24Speaker 3: Always an honor to be here with you in the
- 0:26Speaker 3: fifty five KRC family.
- 0:27Speaker 4: Thanks for having me.
- 0:28Speaker 1: I'm glad to have you. I have to ask you.
- 0:30Speaker 2: I've been on this tar all morning because and the
- 0:32Speaker 2: more I review the Democrats Socialist in America platform, the
- 0:34Speaker 2: more I just it makes my head hurt. And I've
- 0:38Speaker 2: been asking my friends in the listening audience, you know,
- 0:40Speaker 2: go through the thought exercise of how you navigate and
- 0:43Speaker 2: cope with life or even exist as a society if
- 0:46Speaker 2: you give them their due and give them at least theoretically,
- 0:50Speaker 2: why as we walk through post DSA policies put in place,
- 0:55Speaker 2: what's the world gonna look like without police, without prisons
- 0:58Speaker 2: and wide open borders? Those three of the multitude of
- 1:01Speaker 2: insane principles that they advance. How can that possibly work?
- 1:07Speaker 3: You know, it's guys like you and me, I think
- 1:10Speaker 3: probably scratch our heads and eventually end up pounding them
- 1:14Speaker 3: against the wall.
- 1:16Speaker 4: It's appealing, you know the thing.
- 1:19Speaker 3: I try to make comparisons, and I guess if you
- 1:23Speaker 3: ever played sports growing up, you have some tough choices
- 1:26Speaker 3: to make, right Like during the final days of summer,
- 1:30Speaker 3: you can sit on your porch and and drink some
- 1:32Speaker 3: sweet tea and hang out with your buddies and sleep
- 1:35Speaker 3: in if you want, Or you can get your butt
- 1:37Speaker 3: up early and you can go to two a days
- 1:38Speaker 3: and two days suck, but ultimately you become a better
- 1:42Speaker 3: football player. You get to put the jersey on and
- 1:44Speaker 3: play football on Friday night and life is good. And eventually,
- 1:47Speaker 3: if you continue to not show up for life, that
- 1:50Speaker 3: sitting on a porch turns into maybe your overweight, not
- 1:53Speaker 3: in shape life doesn't go as well. Whatever, It's kind
- 1:56Speaker 3: of the same thing. There's an allure to things being free,
- 2:00Speaker 3: and allure to sticking it to the man and changing
- 2:02Speaker 3: the system. But you only have to look at history
- 2:04Speaker 3: to figure out you can only take other people's money
- 2:07Speaker 3: for so long, and the Republic may not be perfect,
- 2:12Speaker 3: and capitalism may not be perfect, but it is levels
- 2:16Speaker 3: better than anything else available.
- 2:18Speaker 1: Oh for a whole host and multitude of reasons.
- 2:20Speaker 2: And thanks for bringing back bad Vietnam like flashbacks for
- 2:23Speaker 2: me my double I was a swimmer, but double workouts
- 2:26Speaker 2: over the summer morning and afternoon. Man, I just want
- 2:29Speaker 2: to shoot myself in the head back of those days.
- 2:31Speaker 2: But you can advance this and you can say this
- 2:35Speaker 2: is what we want, and it will appeal to the dumb,
- 2:38Speaker 2: the lazy. I don't know, but you know there are
- 2:40Speaker 2: a lot of college educated, I guess, rich white women
- 2:44Speaker 2: who adopted this craziness in large measure. I mean in
- 2:47Speaker 2: large numbers. If you look at the breakdown of the DSA,
- 2:50Speaker 2: it's a lot of you know, wealthy, suburban I guess,
- 2:53Speaker 2: guilty women because of where they are and who they are.
- 2:56Speaker 2: But ask them, please come on, solve my problem. Read
- 3:00Speaker 2: need to embrace what you're demanding or suggesting. We need
- 3:02Speaker 2: for society, which is getting rid of those evil police,
- 3:04Speaker 2: getting rid of prisons and wide open borders. But how
- 3:08Speaker 2: are we going to deal with the As I mentioned earlier, Jack,
- 3:11Speaker 2: Conceptually speaking, if you have a group of terrorists in
- 3:15Speaker 2: your country that want to bring about a theocracy, let's
- 3:19Speaker 2: say like they did in Iran when they overthrew the
- 3:21Speaker 2: shaw and put a theocracy in which doesn't embrace these
- 3:25Speaker 2: principles and be more than happy to murder you rather
- 3:27Speaker 2: than even give you due process before putting you in
- 3:29Speaker 2: an evil prison.
- 3:32Speaker 1: You can't have an answer to that question.
- 3:33Speaker 2: There must be accountable, there must be law enforcement, and
- 3:36Speaker 2: must be a place to put the evil doers to
- 3:38Speaker 2: keep that kind of element out of your society. They're
- 3:40Speaker 2: going to take over.
- 3:42Speaker 3: Yeah, history is standing here saying, don't make me repeat myself, right,
- 3:47Speaker 3: And what's really interesting, and I'm sorry I'm going to
- 3:49Speaker 3: go down this rabbit hole, is when you think about
- 3:52Speaker 3: the idea of policing.
- 3:54Speaker 4: What is policing supposed to do. It's supposed to keep
- 3:56Speaker 4: the peace.
- 3:57Speaker 3: It's supposed to make sure that if they're is some
- 4:00Speaker 3: sort of infraction, that that infraction gets confronted and if
- 4:04Speaker 3: it's found out to be true, then then you deal
- 4:06Speaker 3: with it right, And there are rules and laws and
- 4:09Speaker 3: penalties in all of those things. The same people who
- 4:13Speaker 3: want us to believe they don't have a stomach for
- 4:15Speaker 3: law enforcement are the same type of people who are
- 4:19Speaker 3: aged and politically active, and if they see an XX
- 4:25Speaker 3: or x Y sign at a women's basketball game, they
- 4:29Speaker 3: go over and they want to police a sixteen year
- 4:32Speaker 3: old girl who's saying thank you, Sophie Cunningham for standing
- 4:35Speaker 3: up for girls. I couldn't see people who don't want
- 4:38Speaker 3: police are very happy to go police themselves things that
- 4:41Speaker 3: they shouldn't be policing. So it's not that they really
- 4:44Speaker 3: don't want police, it's just they really haven't thought about
- 4:46Speaker 3: their worldview.
- 4:48Speaker 2: Well, it's just they really haven't thought period. Fill in
- 4:53Speaker 2: the black stop Yes, Jack Windsor Theohio Pressnetwork dot Com.
- 4:57Speaker 2: We're going to talk about the Yes, the ongoing war
- 4:59Speaker 2: on data enter We had Brigham Account and Studio for
- 5:01Speaker 2: a full hour on energy policy. Jack Windsor, so perfect
- 5:05Speaker 2: springboard to talk about the war on data centers that's
- 5:07Speaker 2: ongoing and driven largely in part by the influence of
- 5:10Speaker 2: the Chinese Communist Party.
- 5:12Speaker 1: I said it. We'll see if Jack agrees, don't go away,
- 5:14Speaker 1: be right back. Fifty five KRC the fifty five KRC
- 5:18Speaker 1: the talk station.
- 5:22Speaker 2: Hey, thirty eight to fifty five KRCD Talk station, Happy Friday.
- 5:25Speaker 2: We've got some great plans for the weekend, and I
- 5:26Speaker 2: hope you don't get rained down tomorrow, which is what
- 5:28Speaker 2: it looks like. And I hope you have the Ohio
- 5:31Speaker 2: pressnetwork dot com book mark on your web browser because
- 5:33Speaker 2: that's where you find Jack Windsor and the all the
- 5:35Speaker 2: news he's got there. Great stuff it is. Let's pivot
- 5:38Speaker 2: back to the ongoing saga, the war on data centers.
- 5:41Speaker 2: And as we learned from Brigham account, Jack Windsor, we
- 5:45Speaker 2: you know, I boiling it down. And I know my
- 5:47Speaker 2: listeners are sick of me talking about small modular reactors,
- 5:49Speaker 2: but just given all the information I've got about them,
- 5:51Speaker 2: they are literally right there. They're done, they can work,
- 5:53Speaker 2: they're off the shelf. You can build a bunch of
- 5:55Speaker 2: them pretty easily.
- 5:57Speaker 1: They could be.
- 5:57Speaker 2: Brought with a AI data and right there. Look, we
- 6:01Speaker 2: have a semi size small modular reactor providing us with
- 6:04Speaker 2: all the power we need. We don't need your grid,
- 6:06Speaker 2: we don't need anything. But we have a regulatory scheme
- 6:09Speaker 2: that is a nightmarish reality. The federal government's in charge
- 6:12Speaker 2: of nuclear power. They won't let us have them, apparently,
- 6:14Speaker 2: And if you do, try to permit for one it's
- 6:16Speaker 2: going to be a decade or more before it finally
- 6:18Speaker 2: gets built. That is the snail's pace that is impeding
- 6:21Speaker 2: our progress. It's the thing that would solve the energy
- 6:24Speaker 2: red flag that people are waving about AI. So focusing
- 6:29Speaker 2: on that element. The easy answer, revivik Ramaswami embraces it.
- 6:34Speaker 2: Have them bring their own power. Simple solution, achievable right now,
- 6:40Speaker 2: solution Jack Windsor. But it's one that's impossible to achieve
- 6:44Speaker 2: because of federal regulations and quite often state regulations. As
- 6:48Speaker 2: I said earlier in the program, we've met the enemy
- 6:50Speaker 2: there us.
- 6:52Speaker 4: Yeah, Brian, everyone's mad about.
- 6:55Speaker 1: Their electric bill.
- 6:56Speaker 3: And like every good story, there's always a victim in
- 6:59Speaker 3: a villain, right and right now, data centers are the villain.
- 7:04Speaker 3: I sat down with the number two of the Department
- 7:06Speaker 3: of Energy this week and here's the truth. The fight
- 7:11Speaker 3: isn't whether to build, although there are some people still
- 7:15Speaker 3: scrambling and squawking about that, it's really about who pays.
- 7:19Speaker 3: And in Ohio, believe it or not, we really are
- 7:22Speaker 3: on the bleeding edge of what's going on as far
- 7:25Speaker 3: as states.
- 7:26Speaker 1: Now.
- 7:27Speaker 3: You're right, there are some things nationally that still need
- 7:29Speaker 3: to happen. But there's just this political war brewing against
- 7:33Speaker 3: data centers, and you have the Bernie Sanders style push
- 7:37Speaker 3: to ban them out right. But to me, the right
- 7:41Speaker 3: answer is already in place. You make big tech pay
- 7:44Speaker 3: its own freight. And in Ohio we have implemented at
- 7:49Speaker 3: least a tariff, which is good news. And then nationally
- 7:52Speaker 3: you have Trump's rate payer Protection Pledge and there are
- 7:57Speaker 3: companies who are signing on to that, at least at
- 8:00Speaker 3: a top level. That seems to be the starting point. Obviously,
- 8:05Speaker 3: you have to figure out in each locale how that
- 8:08Speaker 3: looks and make sure that you're dotting your eyes and
- 8:12Speaker 3: crossing your t's and making sure that the tax payers
- 8:15Speaker 3: are not footing the bill in a bevy of ways.
- 8:18Speaker 2: Well, but there are two components to that, and you
- 8:20Speaker 2: find if you can level the playing field. In terms
- 8:23Speaker 2: of power, the power demands are increasing, and with increased demands,
- 8:27Speaker 2: necessarily economic reality kicks in. The price goes up, laws
- 8:30Speaker 2: of supply and demands a finite supply of power. And
- 8:34Speaker 2: then there's that pesky infrastructure component, because our infrastructure can't
- 8:38Speaker 2: keep up with the demands on the electric grid. So
- 8:40Speaker 2: how do you deal with those two components. You got
- 8:43Speaker 2: to need more power and you're going to need an
- 8:45Speaker 2: infrastructure to deliver it. And therein you run right headlong
- 8:48Speaker 2: into the regulatory nightmare that prevents things from being done.
- 8:52Speaker 1: Yes.
- 8:53Speaker 3: Absolutely, and I think you know when I talked with
- 8:56Speaker 3: Alex Fitzsimmons, now Associate Deputy Secretary of Energy and senior
- 9:00Speaker 3: advisor at Secretary Wright, he framed it this way. So
- 9:03Speaker 3: the Department of Energy is working with tech companies and
- 9:07Speaker 3: the power sector to implement this rate pair of protection pledge.
- 9:11Speaker 3: And the idea is that you buy it, you bring it,
- 9:14Speaker 3: or you build it. And I'm with you. We have
- 9:19Speaker 3: laid down the foundation in Ohio to say if you
- 9:22Speaker 3: want to build a mini reactor, you can do it.
- 9:24Speaker 3: So administratively, we need to figure that part of it out.
- 9:28Speaker 3: And look, the eight hundred pound gorilla in the room
- 9:32Speaker 3: is that nuclear has had a black eye from a
- 9:35Speaker 3: marketing perspective for a long time.
- 9:37Speaker 4: But it's really time to re examine that and let's.
- 9:40Speaker 2: Start reminding people as we did with bring him a gown,
- 9:42Speaker 2: this isn't nineteen seventy Yes, you know what, correct, You
- 9:47Speaker 2: know they didn't have small modulear reactors back in nineteen
- 9:49Speaker 2: seventy had it was a one size fits none. It
- 9:51Speaker 2: was one size, custom tailored like a bespoke suit, build
- 9:54Speaker 2: two size and suit one specific location, not off the
- 9:58Speaker 2: shelf like a Lego. And that took forever. Every element
- 10:01Speaker 2: of the new design had to be approved. Every eye
- 10:03Speaker 2: had to be crossed, every eye had to be dotted
- 10:06Speaker 2: and t crossed. Every environmental rule and regulation had to
- 10:09Speaker 2: be parsed through for each individual project, and then you
- 10:13Speaker 2: do it all over again at some other site elsewhere.
- 10:15Speaker 2: We have overcome the challenges not only of the size
- 10:18Speaker 2: and scope they used to be. We've got them built
- 10:21Speaker 2: down into small you can fit in the back of
- 10:22Speaker 2: a semi tractor trailer size. It's we're still thinking of
- 10:27Speaker 2: it along the lines of meltdowns and nuclear waste and
- 10:31Speaker 2: all these problems that no longer exist technologically.
- 10:35Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, you think about it. Just to make
- 10:37Speaker 3: a funny comparison. In the seventies, your phone was on
- 10:40Speaker 3: the wall, and today you have a phone, a computer.
- 10:44Speaker 3: You have everything you need that's this size, and technology
- 10:49Speaker 3: is amazing and things have advanced, and we really need
- 10:52Speaker 3: to look at it that way.
- 10:53Speaker 4: In Ohio, though, I do want to make sure.
- 10:55Speaker 3: I mentioned you know, the Public Utilities Commission approved a
- 10:59Speaker 3: tariff for a he requiring large loaded customers to pay
- 11:03Speaker 3: at least eighty five percent of their contracted capacity for
- 11:06Speaker 3: up to twelve years, regardless of actual use. And that's
- 11:09Speaker 3: another I think big win.
- 11:11Speaker 1: Now.
- 11:12Speaker 3: I think Duke is another that we're going to have
- 11:14Speaker 3: to make sure that they're on board with that. But
- 11:16Speaker 3: that's what it looks like, right. You need to make
- 11:19Speaker 3: sure that these companies are are footing the bill so
- 11:23Speaker 3: that Grandma doesn't get stuck with it in December.
- 11:26Speaker 2: Amen to that. I think that's all anybody wants, and
- 11:28Speaker 2: I think we can accomplish that. Let's squeeze the skids
- 11:32Speaker 2: and get it done. We are all amen to that.
- 11:34Speaker 2: We're capable of doing. No again, I'll go back to
- 11:36Speaker 2: the fact we've done it. We've done it. Yeah, it's
- 11:40Speaker 2: that written thing in the book, in the law. That's
- 11:42Speaker 2: the thing that's to get in there and scratch it
- 11:44Speaker 2: out and let's move forward with our lives and solve
- 11:46Speaker 2: everybody's problems. Jack wins or how pressnetwork dot Com don't
- 11:49Speaker 2: go away? Because one of Jack's favorite topics, and I
- 11:51Speaker 2: know it's Governor de Wine's topic one of his favorite topics,
- 11:54Speaker 2: topics Haitian deportations. We'll talk about that with Jack in
- 11:57Speaker 2: just a minute. Don't go away fifty five krs.
- 12:00Speaker 4: You're one stop for advertising five krs.
- 12:03Speaker 1: The talk station.
- 12:07Speaker 2: A forty eight fifty five krsee the talk station. Happy Friday,
- 12:10Speaker 2: Brian Thomas with you. How Press Networks, Jack windsor the
- 12:12Speaker 2: Ohio Pressnetwork dot com. Appreciate what you're doing throughout the week,
- 12:16Speaker 2: Jack Wins, and I was enjoy having you on the
- 12:18Speaker 2: fifty five KRCY Morning show on a Friday, and I've
- 12:20Speaker 2: been getting am I'm not gonna say I'm experiencing Shodenfreud
- 12:25Speaker 2: a bit. Mike the Wines kind of rubbed me the
- 12:26Speaker 2: wrong way for a lot of different reasons, being, you know,
- 12:29Speaker 2: the little old libertarian type that I am, and I
- 12:32Speaker 2: know he kind of rubs a lot of my Republican
- 12:34Speaker 2: friends the wrong way as well, So I'm referred to
- 12:36Speaker 2: him as a rhino. I'm not quite sure he even
- 12:37Speaker 2: has a political guidepost. But I've never quite understood his
- 12:41Speaker 2: relationship with the Haitian community other than the fact that
- 12:44Speaker 2: he I guess his family did some charitable work there.
- 12:47Speaker 2: But we have about thirty thousand of them who made
- 12:49Speaker 2: their way and found their way into Springfield under temporary
- 12:52Speaker 2: protected status. And it was because of the the earthquake
- 12:56Speaker 2: for back in twenty ten. I hate he not exactly
- 12:59Speaker 2: a fun filled, in roible experience for pretty much all
- 13:01Speaker 2: the time, given its political instability, But the earthquake was
- 13:05Speaker 2: twenty ten temporary protected status I think by its own
- 13:09Speaker 2: name means not permanent. There was no justification or basis
- 13:14Speaker 2: upon which someone could claim that they were entitled, by
- 13:17Speaker 2: virtual being here under temporary protected status to stay here
- 13:20Speaker 2: forever and lo and behold in new administration decides that, well,
- 13:23Speaker 2: that temporary event is over with. It's time for the
- 13:27Speaker 2: temporary folks here to have that status revoked and send
- 13:30Speaker 2: them back home. Mike Dwin's got a problem with that,
- 13:33Speaker 2: Jack windsor you're analysis of his response.
- 13:37Speaker 3: Well, the top line is this. Brian DeWine's closing argument
- 13:42Speaker 3: as governor is that federal immigration law shouldn't apply to
- 13:47Speaker 3: Ohio because employers got.
- 13:50Speaker 4: Used to the cheap labor.
- 13:51Speaker 3: And if you remember, I know we've talked about this,
- 13:55Speaker 3: I was in Springfield back in twenty twenty four, then
- 13:59Speaker 3: candidate for Vice president jd Vance made it a point
- 14:01Speaker 3: to reach out to me in the middle of my
- 14:03Speaker 3: coverage there and said, thanks for covering what you're covering.
- 14:06Speaker 3: I labeled it what I saw it as back then,
- 14:09Speaker 3: reverse offshoring. And what Dwine is doing now is he's
- 14:13Speaker 3: just saying it out loud, and it tells you exactly
- 14:16Speaker 3: whose side Columbus has been on since twenty twenty three
- 14:19Speaker 3: on this whole matter.
- 14:21Speaker 2: And that's the side of manufacturers getting very very inexpensive
- 14:25Speaker 2: labor here on temporary protected status.
- 14:27Speaker 1: Which does give them the lawful ability to work.
- 14:30Speaker 3: It does, and I think therein is part of the issue.
- 14:33Speaker 3: I was in Springfield last week and I am seed
- 14:37Speaker 3: a town hall and one of the rules that I
- 14:40Speaker 3: put in place was, look, we're not going to call
- 14:42Speaker 3: the Haitians illegals because many of them are here on
- 14:45Speaker 3: temporary protected status. If you remember, there's also there was
- 14:48Speaker 3: the CHVN parole program under the Biden administration that allowed
- 14:53Speaker 3: many of them to come in and apply. But the
- 14:56Speaker 3: bottom line is this, the president has the authority to
- 15:00Speaker 3: you enforce the law. Yes he did. The Supreme Court
- 15:03Speaker 3: backed him up. And now you have a governor who
- 15:06Speaker 3: used to be Attorney General, interestingly, who basically says, I
- 15:10Speaker 3: just don't like the law, and so he's on TV
- 15:13Speaker 3: lobbying the Trump administration to make an exception for Ohio
- 15:17Speaker 3: and spending time in Springfield.
- 15:19Speaker 4: When I say a majority, I mean a majority.
- 15:22Speaker 3: The problem with mainstream press is they bastardize the truth often.
- 15:26Speaker 3: That's what happened in Springfield. A majority, I would say,
- 15:29Speaker 3: even a super majority of people in Springfield say why
- 15:31Speaker 3: aren't you worried about us? Why can't you consider us too?
- 15:37Speaker 3: You're on TV making a case for the Haitians and
- 15:41Speaker 3: temporary means temporary. Why can't you consider us? And I
- 15:44Speaker 3: think that's where Mike Dwaine again is tone deaf.
- 15:46Speaker 2: Well, I have asked others, and I'm going to go
- 15:48Speaker 2: ahead and ask you. Not that I necessarily think you
- 15:50Speaker 2: might have any information on it, but since you move
- 15:52Speaker 2: follow on this subject for so long. The jobs that
- 15:54Speaker 2: these Haitians, the Haitians in Springfield are doing are not
- 16:01Speaker 2: like high degree requiring jobs. You don't need a six
- 16:05Speaker 2: year education or a four year college degree, or even
- 16:08Speaker 2: an associate's degree to perform the labor that some of
- 16:10Speaker 2: these folks are doing. In other words, they don't require
- 16:13Speaker 2: a tremendous amount of job training or go I don't
- 16:17Speaker 2: care what type of person you are. If you're able bodied,
- 16:20Speaker 2: working age, you can perform the job that the Somali
- 16:22Speaker 2: community happens to be doing. Does that sound like a
- 16:24Speaker 2: fair assessment of the situation?
- 16:26Speaker 1: Jack?
- 16:27Speaker 4: It does? It does.
- 16:28Speaker 3: And here's the caveat that I think is where the
- 16:31Speaker 3: discussion goes a lot.
- 16:33Speaker 4: But here's the caveat.
- 16:34Speaker 3: I thought it was interesting Governor Mike DeWine when he
- 16:36Speaker 3: was talking I think it was with CBS, he said, well,
- 16:38Speaker 3: they start businesses and they buy houses, And I went,
- 16:41Speaker 3: do they because I know a lot of people in
- 16:43Speaker 3: their thirties who feel like they can't afford their first home.
- 16:46Speaker 3: But you're telling me that the Haitians who are working,
- 16:49Speaker 3: and here's here's what I'm going to get to. They
- 16:52Speaker 3: are working at a wage that is probably below what
- 16:55Speaker 3: a Springfield resident could make because they're getting subsidized by taxpayers.
- 17:00Speaker 3: That's the bottom line. And so if you're a business,
- 17:02Speaker 3: you can pay the employee less because the employees bunking
- 17:05Speaker 3: with ten other Haitians in a house paying six hundred
- 17:08Speaker 3: dollars a month and has other government stipends and handouts
- 17:14Speaker 3: that the average Springfield resident doesn't, and that's the part
- 17:17Speaker 3: that nobody in the press wants to talk about.
- 17:19Speaker 2: Well, the easy way to answer that question is the following,
- 17:21Speaker 2: Jack windsor wait a second, we now have a work requirement.
- 17:25Speaker 2: If you are able bodied and capable of being employee,
- 17:28Speaker 2: you now must do what eighty hours of work a
- 17:30Speaker 2: month or something along those lines. You have to engage
- 17:32Speaker 2: in education, training or work an effort to get work.
- 17:37Speaker 2: You got thirty thousand, I guess potential jobs in the
- 17:40Speaker 2: city of Springfield if they're capable of getting rid of
- 17:42Speaker 2: every single Haitian person there, and therefore you've got a
- 17:45Speaker 2: whole bunch of people apparently who qualify or who are
- 17:48Speaker 2: able bodied, that nonetheless are receiving public assistance in the
- 17:51Speaker 2: form of taxpayer dollar welfare. That's a place for them
- 17:54Speaker 2: to work. Apparently, it doesn't require a tremendous amount of
- 17:58Speaker 2: job training to perform the task. They could fulfill their
- 18:01Speaker 2: work obligation at oh Jack. If these jobs allow people
- 18:04Speaker 2: and pay people enough money that they can buy houses
- 18:07Speaker 2: and participate in the community that way, and then pay taxes,
- 18:11Speaker 2: it sounds to me like these people might be permanently
- 18:13Speaker 2: employed and then buying houses next week. But I guess
- 18:16Speaker 2: what you're telling me, Jack, it wouldn't work out that
- 18:20Speaker 2: way because they're not paying a quote unquote living wage
- 18:24Speaker 2: as the left might characterize it.
- 18:27Speaker 3: That's fair. I think that is absolutely fair. And listen,
- 18:31Speaker 3: I can't talk about Springfield without saying, we can't ever
- 18:34Speaker 3: forget the residents of Springfield housing schools, driving government services.
- 18:44Speaker 4: For years.
- 18:44Speaker 3: They've been clamoring and you know what, they were dismissed
- 18:47Speaker 3: as racist, as fringe, as big at it. I spent
- 18:50Speaker 3: time with him again last week. That's not the case.
- 18:53Speaker 3: They absolutely welcome migrants, but they also recognize that there's
- 18:58Speaker 3: a point beyond which you get stress that you just
- 19:00Speaker 3: can't be elastic anymore.
- 19:02Speaker 2: And that racism bigoted thing is ridiculous. You could pick up. Okay,
- 19:05Speaker 2: is it because of the color of their skin?
- 19:07Speaker 1: Jack?
- 19:07Speaker 2: Then is this a color of skin racism argument? All right,
- 19:11Speaker 2: Let's say you went over to, oh, pick a European country.
- 19:13Speaker 1: You got all the people in Germany or something.
- 19:18Speaker 2: You picked up thirty thousand of them because they wanted
- 19:20Speaker 2: to come to the United States of America, and you
- 19:22Speaker 2: landed them at a bus stop in Springfield, Ohio, and
- 19:25Speaker 2: they were the ones that got hired by these employers
- 19:27Speaker 2: because they were allowed to work and they were willing
- 19:29Speaker 2: to take less of a wage because they agreed that
- 19:31Speaker 2: they would all live in small apartments with fifteen or
- 19:34Speaker 2: twenty people. And then blah blah, the same thing that's
- 19:36Speaker 2: going on. You can't scream racism. It's not the color
- 19:39Speaker 2: of their skin, it's not their country of origin. It's
- 19:41Speaker 2: that they showed up one day unannounced and completely took
- 19:44Speaker 2: over all these jobs to the benefit of the factory
- 19:47Speaker 2: owners and the people employing them because they worked for
- 19:50Speaker 2: less money. This isn't about racism.
- 19:53Speaker 3: Well, but then they would find another label, right, because
- 19:56Speaker 3: that really what is that?
- 19:58Speaker 4: It's point number thirteen.
- 19:59Speaker 3: And in a Lenski's rules for radicals, you got to isolate, castigate,
- 20:04Speaker 3: and try to cancel. So I guess where my head
- 20:07Speaker 3: goes is they would call you a white Christian nationalist.
- 20:09Speaker 3: You're a bad evil nationalist. I mean there's always an excuse,
- 20:13Speaker 3: but yes, I digress. Your point is spot on.
- 20:16Speaker 2: Jack Lindsor always loved our conversations. We never disagree too much.
