- 0:02Speaker 1: A lot of the fundamental misters of widow little cells
- 0:10Speaker 1: and an individuals. This is all right, everybody, welcome to
- 0:21Speaker 1: your one book show on this Thursday, December fourth. I
- 0:27Speaker 1: hope everybody's having a great week so far. And uh yeah, weekend,
- 0:33Speaker 1: it's just around the corner, all right. Uh so, uh
- 0:38Speaker 1: let's see, no real announcements. I don't have any real
- 0:42Speaker 1: announcements today. We will I'll see you tomorrow and on
- 0:47Speaker 1: Saturday we'll have a show probably both will be at
- 0:50Speaker 1: this time to be a East coast time. All right,
- 0:53Speaker 1: let's let's just jump in. I mean, we're going to
- 0:56Speaker 1: return to a topic that we keep returning to, and
- 0:58Speaker 1: I expect us to keep it to to this topic
- 1:00Speaker 1: because it's just keeps being out there and keeps being emphasized,
- 1:05Speaker 1: and it's a topic on which the left and the
- 1:07Speaker 1: right agree. Uh you know, you you It's one of
- 1:11Speaker 1: those topics that the populist left and the populist right
- 1:15Speaker 1: all agree about, and that is this idea that things
- 1:20Speaker 1: just suck today. I mean, Matt Walsh just had a tweet,
- 1:24Speaker 1: I mean just just just today this morning, just had
- 1:26Speaker 1: a tweet to reflect some of this in more broad
- 1:30Speaker 1: terms and then and then there's the whole economists think
- 1:35Speaker 1: thing about how you know you can't a vote anything
- 1:39Speaker 1: today and you could affote more in the past, and
- 1:41Speaker 1: and we'll go over some of that in a minute.
- 1:43Speaker 1: But here's here's Matt Walsh's tweet representing the right. But
- 1:47Speaker 1: this is I think this, This is feelings that you
- 1:50Speaker 1: get from the left as well. This is this could
- 1:52Speaker 1: be Elizabeth Waughan writing this. This could be pretty much
- 1:55Speaker 1: anybody writing this. Here's Matt Walsh. It's an empirical fact
- 2:00Speaker 1: that basically everything in ourday today lives has gotten worse
- 2:04Speaker 1: over time. Over the years. The quality of everything food, clothing, entertainment, air, travel, roads, traffic, infrastructure, housing, etc.
- 2:14Speaker 1: Has declined in observable ways. Even new inventions, search engines,
- 2:21Speaker 1: social media, smartphones have gone downhill, downhill drastically, not a
- 2:28Speaker 1: little bit drastically. This isn't a random old man yells
- 2:34Speaker 1: at the clouds complaint. It's true. It's happening that the
- 2:39Speaker 1: client can be measured. Everyone sees it, everyone feels it. Meanwhile,
- 2:44Speaker 1: political pundits and podcast hosts speaking of things that are
- 2:48Speaker 1: getting worse focus on anything and everything except these practical,
- 2:52Speaker 1: real problems that actually affect a quality of life. I mean,
- 3:03Speaker 1: it's true that pretty much everything that the gunment touches
- 3:07Speaker 1: has gotten worse over the years or is getting worse
- 3:10Speaker 1: to some extent, to some extent to another, But none
- 3:17Speaker 1: of this is really true. There are few things that
- 3:20Speaker 1: are getting worse that impact all of us. Education getting worse,
- 3:26Speaker 1: air traffic control getting worse. Air travel. Is it getting worse?
- 3:33Speaker 1: I mean maybe, but it's also getting cheaper and people
- 3:39Speaker 1: are doing it. I mean, if you just follow like
- 3:43Speaker 1: how much people do something, you assume that it's because
- 3:47Speaker 1: it's better or better for them within the context of
- 3:49Speaker 1: their lives and their abilities. People travel like one hundred
- 3:54Speaker 1: x what they used to, Like the Golden Age in
- 3:56Speaker 1: the nineteen seventies used to dress up in a suit
- 3:59Speaker 1: and tie and go to the airport, and most people
- 4:03Speaker 1: didn't fly like an American vacation was an American vacation.
- 4:06Speaker 1: Like in the nineteen seventies, it was you got it,
- 4:09Speaker 1: you got camper, and you got in a car and
- 4:12Speaker 1: you drove and maybe somebody, some of you feel nostalgic
- 4:16Speaker 1: to that, and that's great, good for you. I've done
- 4:20Speaker 1: I did those road trips. But today most Americans get
- 4:23Speaker 1: in their plane, they flying anywhere they want. I mean,
- 4:27Speaker 1: Americans are traveling more to Europe, they're traveling more to Asia,
- 4:30Speaker 1: They're seeing the world, They're traveling more. In the United States.
- 4:33Speaker 1: They're driving less, flying much much much much much much more.
- 4:39Speaker 1: So the travel might be worse. I don't know, space
- 4:43Speaker 1: for your knees or whatever. But it's so much cheaper
- 4:47Speaker 1: that people are doing it so much more that you
- 4:50Speaker 1: have to say that in the context of human life,
- 4:52Speaker 1: it is so much better. Food. Food, really, God, I mean,
- 5:00Speaker 1: I remember the nineteen seventies and what you can go
- 5:06Speaker 1: out there's no way to go out, what kind of
- 5:12Speaker 1: what kind of you know, options that you have fast
- 5:17Speaker 1: food and maybe some big chains and and and and
- 5:20Speaker 1: maybe an odd here in their Chinese restaurants, and but God,
- 5:25Speaker 1: think about the plufor of choices you have today, right
- 5:28Speaker 1: if you're foody or even a little bit of a food,
- 5:31Speaker 1: or you just enjoy food, the choices unbelievable. And and
- 5:37Speaker 1: and you can choose anywhere from a fast food but
- 5:41Speaker 1: a wide variety of fast food, much bigger than there
- 5:43Speaker 1: was in the seventies, to the fanciest restaurants possible. The
- 5:48Speaker 1: celebrity chef, the quality of the food, the healthy orientation
- 5:53Speaker 1: of the food. If you're vegan, if you're I don't know,
- 5:56Speaker 1: a carnivore, whatever you are, whatever type of diet you have,
- 6:00Speaker 1: the especiality restaurants that they go for you. And the
- 6:03Speaker 1: same with the supermarket. You're going to supermarket today. I mean, really,
- 6:09Speaker 1: you're insane if you think the variety is not so
- 6:13Speaker 1: much larger now. True, if you only like quote American food, flavorless, tasteless,
- 6:20Speaker 1: like meat and potatoes, then yeah, now there's flavor in
- 6:24Speaker 1: the food. And maybe you view that as a as
- 6:26Speaker 1: a downgrade. And I remember, like the nineteen seventies were
- 6:32Speaker 1: TV dinners. Maybe the variety of TV dinners has gone down,
- 6:36Speaker 1: maybe because we're more health conscious and now there are
- 6:39Speaker 1: other options, but like microwave dinners and living off of
- 6:43Speaker 1: microave dinners, maybe the quality of those has gone down.
- 6:46Speaker 1: I don't know. But oh my god. You can get
- 6:49Speaker 1: fruits and vegetables from anywhere in the world all year round.
- 6:54Speaker 1: You can get whatever you want. You want a boring
- 6:57Speaker 1: meat and potatoes dinner, yeah, you can get You can
- 7:01Speaker 1: get cobD meat. You can get meat from Japan, where
- 7:04Speaker 1: they massage the cows and they drink beer all day.
- 7:09Speaker 1: You can get anything you want. Things have gotten worse. Food.
- 7:14Speaker 1: You gotta be kidding me. Clothing, clothing, I mean, this
- 7:20Speaker 1: is where it just shows how ignorant this guy is
- 7:23Speaker 1: because he's got such narrow view of what is consumed
- 7:28Speaker 1: and what are the possibilities and what are the options,
- 7:31Speaker 1: and narrow view of everything. But God, there are more
- 7:39Speaker 1: options in terms of clothing today than ever before. You know,
- 7:42Speaker 1: maybe maybe the clothes last shorter, but I doubt it.
- 7:46Speaker 1: And you can get now especiality clothes for exercise, especiality
- 7:49Speaker 1: clothes for yoga, especially hoity clothes for I don't know what.
- 7:53Speaker 1: And and people have more clothes than ever because clothes
- 7:56Speaker 1: so cheap. And they're not cheap because they're worse. They're
- 8:00Speaker 1: cheap because they're cheap because they made in Bangladesh and
- 8:05Speaker 1: they're made in quantity. And if you look, you go
- 8:08Speaker 1: to the mall and you look at some of the
- 8:10Speaker 1: options in terms of the kind of kind of variety
- 8:14Speaker 1: of clothing and colors and styles I know, never in
- 8:19Speaker 1: human history, because they be more better, more choices now,
- 8:22Speaker 1: I know, right, I mean, the whole point of Matt Walsh,
- 8:26Speaker 1: his whole stick is choice is bad. Options are bad.
- 8:30Speaker 1: You should be white Christian with a white ful home
- 8:33Speaker 1: to make your dinner. Maybe it's what's cooking is not
- 8:36Speaker 1: that good. And he remembers his mother's cooking and he
- 8:38Speaker 1: misses that. And you should have three kids, maybe three
- 8:42Speaker 1: point two if you're really ambitious. A station wagon. Oh god,
- 8:46Speaker 1: no station wagons. That's why cause of deteriorated. Right now
- 8:50Speaker 1: he has an suv poor soul. And you know, no choices.
- 8:57Speaker 1: Choices are bad. But in all these realms they're more choices. Entertainment.
- 9:04Speaker 1: You know, I probably agree with him on entertainment. Art
- 9:07Speaker 1: is worse, education is worth. Anything to do with the
- 9:10Speaker 1: intellectual side is worse. Anything to do with the material
- 9:13Speaker 1: side much better, not even close, so much better. Housing housing, really,
- 9:24Speaker 1: nineteen sixties Davage house at American Bought was I think
- 9:27Speaker 1: under fifteen hundred square feet. Today it's over three thousand
- 9:32Speaker 1: square feet, so the houses have doubled in size. In
- 9:37Speaker 1: the nineteen fifties, many families would live in a house
- 9:41Speaker 1: together in order to be able to vote it. Today
- 9:45Speaker 1: we have small households. So not only do we have
- 9:48Speaker 1: three thousand square feet. It's two thousand square feet without
- 9:50Speaker 1: four kids, maybe with only two, maybe with zero. So
- 9:55Speaker 1: square feet per person living in the household has gone
- 9:58Speaker 1: through the roof, and the houses are just better. Refrigerators
- 10:03Speaker 1: are better, the stoves are better, the microwaves are better,
- 10:08Speaker 1: the gas stoves or electric stoves or whatever type of
- 10:12Speaker 1: whatever you call it. I don't know anything about kitchens
- 10:15Speaker 1: is better. All of it is better. I've given you
- 10:19Speaker 1: some stats on refrigeration. It's insanity. Now two infrastructure maintained
- 10:26Speaker 1: by governments, it's probably worse. Traffic is worse because, surprise, surprise,
- 10:32Speaker 1: in the nineteen seventies, fifties, sixties, people struggled to have
- 10:37Speaker 1: one car. Now they have two. Three foot every kid
- 10:41Speaker 1: has a call, everybody drives. Yeah, so traffic's gone up
- 10:43Speaker 1: because we have more people and everybody has a car.
- 10:46Speaker 1: Everybody has a car, and such sances have got it worse. Really,
- 10:52Speaker 1: does he tried trachypt as? He tried? You know what's
- 10:55Speaker 1: he talking about? Does he remember Yahoo? Social media is worse?
- 11:02Speaker 1: Well maybe I don't know. I have no idea. Smartphones
- 11:06Speaker 1: are worse. No, they're not. They're better, much better, hugely better,
- 11:10Speaker 1: not even in the same ballpark better. Never mind that
- 11:15Speaker 1: the very fact that you have a smartphone is a
- 11:18Speaker 1: modern phenomenon. This made life better. So it's true. This
- 11:23Speaker 1: is not the old man yells at clouds. This is
- 11:28Speaker 1: the bigoted, misogynistic, anti progress, anti Mondo unity conservative yelling
- 11:44Speaker 1: at the clouds. And he's wrong. He's just wrong on
- 11:50Speaker 1: everything everything. You know. Somebody points out that they can
- 11:56Speaker 1: order something at nine am in the morning and get
- 11:58Speaker 1: it chipped to the house by one pm in the
- 12:00Speaker 1: same day, and Matt Will's response to that is, yes,
- 12:04Speaker 1: you can get your cheap shit quickly, and it's still
- 12:07Speaker 1: cheap shit. It's cheap, it's not shit. Maybe he buys shit.
- 12:13Speaker 1: I don't buy shit. The stuff I get is mostly good.
- 12:17Speaker 1: And you know what if it's shit, you know what
- 12:18Speaker 1: I do. If it arrives and it's shit, what do
- 12:20Speaker 1: I do? I put it back in the box, turn
- 12:23Speaker 1: it around and send it back and get my money
- 12:24Speaker 1: back in the mail. Which is God just a miracle
- 12:28Speaker 1: that people will give you your money back. I mean, I
- 12:32Speaker 1: grew up in Israel, where nobody ever gave you your
- 12:34Speaker 1: money back. You bought something that was it, that was
- 12:36Speaker 1: for life. You could never get your money back. Even
- 12:38Speaker 1: if it turned out it was something else in the box,
- 12:40Speaker 1: then you intended. You never got your money back. In America,
- 12:44Speaker 1: you don't need sometimes you don't even need a receipts
- 12:46Speaker 1: and you get your money back. It's just my d
- 12:52Speaker 1: boggling to me how clueless people like Matt walshaw about
- 12:57Speaker 1: the world and how they their pessimism, the darkness, their
- 13:04Speaker 1: narrow mindedness sells as much as it does. I mean,
- 13:08Speaker 1: Matt walsh has three point nine million followers on Twitter,
- 13:13Speaker 1: three point nine million people exposed to his bullshit. It's
- 13:18Speaker 1: just and it's just untrue. It's unrelated to reality. And
- 13:25Speaker 1: what's amazing is pointing out reality, pointing out facts, pointing
- 13:29Speaker 1: out I mean, look what we're doing here. We're podcasting
- 13:34Speaker 1: as Matt Welsh does, but I'm doing it live, life
- 13:38Speaker 1: streaming life streaming all around the world, and it's instantaneous
- 13:44Speaker 1: and the quality is pretty damn good video live. How
- 13:49Speaker 1: much does it cost you to listen to you on
- 13:51Speaker 1: book show, particularly those who don't participate in the super
- 13:55Speaker 1: chat and don't go on payin, How does it cost
- 14:00Speaker 1: you nothing? Nothing? Life hasn't got a better I mean,
- 14:12Speaker 1: Matt Walls tapes his shows and he puts them up there.
- 14:15Speaker 1: I don't know if he does them to life. I
- 14:16Speaker 1: think he tapes them, puts them on there. How much
- 14:18Speaker 1: does it cost him to put them up there and
- 14:21Speaker 1: to get access to the world, literally the world with
- 14:25Speaker 1: his nonsense, with his crap, with his cheap shit. Not
- 14:31Speaker 1: a zero, He's really cheap. I think you might have
- 14:38Speaker 1: to buy a subscription to watch Matt Walsh's stuff here
- 14:41Speaker 1: in the Iron Book Show you get it for free.
- 14:45Speaker 1: That should make you want to trade value for value.
- 14:48Speaker 1: I don't see any superchats yet. Remember, you get to
- 14:53Speaker 1: dictate the content. With the superchats. You get to ask
- 14:55Speaker 1: questions that I then answer. And I know a lot
- 14:57Speaker 1: of you are saving up for the big New Years Eve,
- 15:00Speaker 1: but we got we gotta keep feeding. We gotta keep
- 15:03Speaker 1: running the show until New Year's Eve. It doesn't stop.
- 15:06Speaker 1: I should just go on vacation until New Year's Eve. Yeah,
- 15:12Speaker 1: I mean, it's just mind buggling to me. Just the
- 15:17Speaker 1: mentality that this requires to hold. This is the mentality
- 15:22Speaker 1: of a twelve twenty. Somebody wants to go back, and
- 15:25Speaker 1: somebody is obsessed with negativity and badness. I mean the
- 15:32Speaker 1: car he drives is so much safer than it was
- 15:35Speaker 1: in the in the nineteen seventies or eighties. It is
- 15:38Speaker 1: more sophisticated, it's more developed. Again, Matt is relatively young,
- 15:43Speaker 1: so maybe he doesn't know all this, and maybe maybe
- 15:46Speaker 1: it's also that he doesn't have much experience, right, he's
- 15:49Speaker 1: he was. He probably doesn't get out much. He probably
- 15:52Speaker 1: doesn't fly around the world much. Yeah, I mean, he
- 15:59Speaker 1: probably doesn't use this his phone that much. I don't know.
- 16:02Speaker 1: It sure appears that this ignorant is partially based on
- 16:06Speaker 1: lack of experience in living in life. And then you
- 16:11Speaker 1: have the economists like this finance guy who I told
- 16:15Speaker 1: you about, who published this essay about how in America
- 16:17Speaker 1: today poverty line is at one hundred and forty thousand dollars.
- 16:23Speaker 1: And since then there's been a lot of back and forth.
- 16:25Speaker 1: A lot of people have criticized it, and he's come
- 16:27Speaker 1: back and a lot of people have defended him, and
- 16:28Speaker 1: it's gone back and forth and so on. But the myth,
- 16:32Speaker 1: you know, the myth persists, you know, the basically you
- 16:37Speaker 1: cannot you cannot you know, in nineteen sixty three or whatever,
- 16:43Speaker 1: you know, in this essay, this guy writes. He writes,
- 16:46Speaker 1: and this is a really good essay today published by
- 16:49Speaker 1: Matt and Glesis. In this substax slow boring, and he writes,
- 16:55Speaker 1: I mean the guy who wrote one hundred and forty thousand,
- 16:57Speaker 1: Guy Green, Michael Green. Between nineteen twenty twenty four, everything changed,
- 17:06Speaker 1: and that today's a family needs two incomes to maintain
- 17:09Speaker 1: the standard of living. They used to be provided by one.
- 17:15Speaker 1: Here's what you wrote. The labor market shifted, the labor
- 17:19Speaker 1: model shifted. A second income became mandatory to maintain the
- 17:22Speaker 1: standard of living the one income formally provided. But a
- 17:25Speaker 1: second income meant childcare became mandatory, which meant two cars
- 17:29Speaker 1: became mandatory. Or maybe you'd simply be asking for a
- 17:32Speaker 1: lot of a lot, generationally speaking, because living near your
- 17:37Speaker 1: parents helps to defray those childcare costs. So you can't
- 17:40Speaker 1: move because you have to stay in your parents. Now
- 17:44Speaker 1: here's the thing. We need to compare apples to apples.
- 17:52Speaker 1: If you want a nineteen sixty three lifestyle, if you
- 17:56Speaker 1: are willing to live in a nineteen sixty three home
- 18:00Speaker 1: and your wife, you know, maybe maybe this is what
- 18:03Speaker 1: med Welsh does. Although Medwalsh makes millions of dollars, so
- 18:06Speaker 1: he probably doesn't. But if you want to live in
- 18:08Speaker 1: nineteen sixty three standards where the wife stays at home,
- 18:12Speaker 1: it doesn't work. Of course if she doesn't work, no
- 18:15Speaker 1: need for childcare, right, because she can take care of
- 18:17Speaker 1: the kids. And you don't go out to restaurants because
- 18:23Speaker 1: she kiks, right, she's not cooking, And you're willing to
- 18:27Speaker 1: live in a house like you could have lived in
- 18:30Speaker 1: nineteen sixty three. So let's say what you know if
- 18:36Speaker 1: you went out there and actually bought a house that
- 18:40Speaker 1: is about you know, fifteen hundred square feet, sixteen hundred
- 18:45Speaker 1: square feet this house posting I see here. This is
- 18:49Speaker 1: in Jacksonville. Jacksonville is about the median city in America
- 18:54Speaker 1: in terms of costs in terms of wages, so wages
- 18:58Speaker 1: about where the median is, and house spices about where
- 19:01Speaker 1: the median is. It's pretty pretty representative. You could buy,
- 19:06Speaker 1: you could rent this house for two thousand dollars a month,
- 19:09Speaker 1: sixteen hundred square feet. It's got three bedrooms, two baths.
- 19:13Speaker 1: And since you were living at trad con trad we're
- 19:17Speaker 1: not con just trad life, right, you probably have you
- 19:20Speaker 1: have four kids, so the kids would have to double
- 19:22Speaker 1: up in a bedroom. But I doubled uped with my
- 19:25Speaker 1: brother in a bedroom, and my sister's doubled up in
- 19:27Speaker 1: their bedroom. And that's how we lived. We had one
- 19:30Speaker 1: bathroom in the entire apartment. It was about I don't know,
- 19:39Speaker 1: twelve hundred square feet maybe fourteen hundred square feet the
- 19:42Speaker 1: whole apartment with one to three four bedrooms. You know,
- 19:50Speaker 1: my dad had an office in the home. Parents had
- 19:52Speaker 1: a bedroom, and we doubled up in the two bedrooms. Right,
- 20:00Speaker 1: That's how people lived. And we had a we had
- 20:02Speaker 1: one bathroom for all six of us, six people, one bathroom.
- 20:08Speaker 1: If you're willing to live like that, there's plenty of
- 20:11Speaker 1: homes you can buy for that kind of money. You
- 20:14Speaker 1: can rent for two thousand bucks. You can rent a
- 20:16Speaker 1: whole home like that. Now, if you're making kind of
- 20:19Speaker 1: the median, which is I don't know, about eighty thousand
- 20:22Speaker 1: a year, right, if you're in the age group of
- 20:27Speaker 1: thirty five to fifty four, which is the Pea coating
- 20:31Speaker 1: years and where you have kids, and you're making eighty
- 20:34Speaker 1: thousand a year, you can buy a home. You can
- 20:36Speaker 1: rent a home for two thousand dollars a month. That
- 20:38Speaker 1: kind of home, and your wife can stay home she
- 20:41Speaker 1: doesn't work, and you can have one car, and yeah,
- 20:47Speaker 1: you can have it all. No need for childcare. By
- 20:49Speaker 1: the way, this particular house Injectiononville is in a neighborhood
- 20:53Speaker 1: where the school is rated really high, so it's a
- 20:56Speaker 1: little bit more expensive, probably because school district is good.
- 21:05Speaker 1: So the whole thing is really really stupid. Now, it's
- 21:11Speaker 1: true college tuition has gone up, but you know, most
- 21:13Speaker 1: people didn't go to college in the nineteen sixties. Who
- 21:16Speaker 1: said all four of your kids need to go to
- 21:18Speaker 1: college certainly didn't happen in the sixties. We survived. Child
- 21:24Speaker 1: cares up, but you don't need childcare because your wife
- 21:26Speaker 1: is home. Health care costs up, you know that's true.
- 21:31Speaker 1: But you know, if you have a job. One, if
- 21:34Speaker 1: you have a job, you're probably getting health care through
- 21:37Speaker 1: your employee anyway. And you know, one person having a
- 21:43Speaker 1: job you can get the employer will pay your health
- 21:46Speaker 1: care for six people. So if you want to live
- 21:51Speaker 1: a trad life, you can live a trad life. Here's
- 21:55Speaker 1: the problem. Nobody wants to live that life. Nobody wants
- 22:01Speaker 1: to live that life. People are ambitious and in order
- 22:05Speaker 1: to achieve their ambitions, not just monetarily, but in terms
- 22:10Speaker 1: of fulfillment in life. Women go to work. They don't
- 22:16Speaker 1: go to work just for the money, because it's true that,
- 22:18Speaker 1: particularly in early days, and particularly if you have four kids,
- 22:21Speaker 1: a lot of that money just goes to pay the childcare.
- 22:25Speaker 1: But they want to have a job because it's fulfilling
- 22:28Speaker 1: and because you know what, one day the kids will
- 22:30Speaker 1: grow up and they continue to have a job. So
- 22:38Speaker 1: you know, women want fulfilling lives, say, go on and work,
- 22:42Speaker 1: or they go on and study, they go to school,
- 22:47Speaker 1: so they're not at home to take care of the
- 22:48Speaker 1: kids and to cook all your meals so you don't
- 22:50Speaker 1: have to go to restaurants. And you have a huge
- 22:54Speaker 1: number of restaurants in the world right now because people
- 22:55Speaker 1: are not cooking at home and they want to go
- 22:58Speaker 1: up the choices. Those are choices that indeed have enhanced
- 23:04Speaker 1: human life, particularly if you're a woman. Not maybe it
- 23:09Speaker 1: worse now. It's true if you're a tadman, traditional man,
- 23:13Speaker 1: and you expect the woman to be in the house
- 23:17Speaker 1: cleaning and taking care of the kods and washing and
- 23:22Speaker 1: cooking all day, and you don't want your wife to
- 23:26Speaker 1: have an education or career or to do anything too interesting,
- 23:31Speaker 1: then yeah, life might suck for you. Good. I'm cool
- 23:36Speaker 1: with that. I'm cool with people who have Neanderthal attitudes,
- 23:42Speaker 1: having you know, unhappy lives. That is not a bad thing.
- 23:47Speaker 1: It's actually called I think it's called justice. Justice. The
- 23:55Speaker 1: reality is that people have two incomes, not be they
- 24:00Speaker 1: need two incomes to live the lifestyle of the nineteen sixties.
- 24:04Speaker 1: They have two incomes because they want to live the
- 24:05Speaker 1: lifestyle of somebody in twenty twenty five. They want to
- 24:09Speaker 1: go to nice restaurants, They want to have a three
- 24:12Speaker 1: thy five hundred square foot home, particularly if they have
- 24:14Speaker 1: four kids. They don't want to have four kids. They
- 24:17Speaker 1: only want to have two kids and both want to
- 24:21Speaker 1: have careers, and they want to have nice stuff and
- 24:26Speaker 1: two cars and a nice home. They don't want to
- 24:33Speaker 1: be stuck in the sixties. So the reason we have
- 24:39Speaker 1: two income households is not because wages are down. It's
- 24:42Speaker 1: because wages are up. The reality is women can go
- 24:46Speaker 1: out now and make a good living. Nineteen sixties had
- 24:50Speaker 1: very few opportunities even if they wanted to go out
- 24:52Speaker 1: into the workforce. Workforce was not taking women. There weren't
- 25:01Speaker 1: enough jobs and they weren't interested in women. There was
- 25:04Speaker 1: clear discrimination. That's changed. Women have become more ambitious and
- 25:09Speaker 1: then and workplaces have opened up, so as we become richer,
- 25:17Speaker 1: not poorer. Richer. More people are working and that makes them,
- 25:22Speaker 1: as a household even richer. But of course expenses have
- 25:27Speaker 1: gone up as well. But expenses have gone up not
- 25:30Speaker 1: because we're maintaining a nineteen sixty three lifestyle, but because
- 25:34Speaker 1: we're maintaining a completely different, far superior, materially, far superior
- 25:41Speaker 1: materially lifestyle and spiritually, by the way, because a woman
- 25:45Speaker 1: working is spiritually better than women not working, or woman
- 25:48Speaker 1: getting an education or pursuing her passion is false superior
- 25:52Speaker 1: than a woman not doing that spiritually, then we are
- 25:57Speaker 1: living at a much better materially and spiritually spiritual way
- 26:02Speaker 1: of life. Nostalgia I mean, if you want to have
- 26:07Speaker 1: nostalgia for the spirit of the nineteenth century, for the
- 26:11Speaker 1: sense of life of the nineteenth century, for the music
- 26:14Speaker 1: and novels of the nineteenth century, I'm with you. For
- 26:17Speaker 1: the intellectual rigor and passion and interest of a very
- 26:23Speaker 1: small class of people, granted, but of the enlightenment of
- 26:27Speaker 1: the founding fathers. Yeah, I'm with you, but from a
- 26:33Speaker 1: material perspective, I will say it again, over and over
- 26:37Speaker 1: again and again. If you're a woman, if you're black,
- 26:40Speaker 1: if you're a minority of any kind, if you're gay,
- 26:44Speaker 1: it's never been better to be alive than right now.
- 26:48Speaker 1: If you're a trad man, I feel sorry for you
- 26:52Speaker 1: because the reality is that history is going to leave
- 26:54Speaker 1: you way behind. Unless you know the thiritarians come about
- 27:00Speaker 1: and impose a trad life on us. Most of us
- 27:04Speaker 1: do not want a trad life. We want a twenty
- 27:08Speaker 1: first century life. In that sense, we have even socially
- 27:15Speaker 1: better than we will. All right, so much for the nonsense.
- 27:24Speaker 1: And again it's not it's not a left or right issue.
- 27:28Speaker 1: It's on both left and right. They both think this,
- 27:31Speaker 1: and just generally people think this. It's crazy. All right,
- 27:39Speaker 1: all right, let me do my reminder. We have a
- 27:43Speaker 1: goal for every hour of the show. We're almost half
- 27:46Speaker 1: an hour into the show. We're not even scraping the
- 27:50Speaker 1: surface of the first goal, our goal, so please consider
- 27:54Speaker 1: doing the super Chats twenty dollars. The next thing about
- 27:57Speaker 1: super Chats is, I know many of you have questions
- 27:59Speaker 1: for me, or want to challenge me, or think I'm
- 28:02Speaker 1: completely wrong about something. The super chat is a great
- 28:04Speaker 1: way to get your voice heard, and the thousands of
- 28:07Speaker 1: people who listen to watch the show will actually hear
- 28:10Speaker 1: it because I will read every single super Chat, no
- 28:13Speaker 1: matter what you write in it. So and I do.
- 28:18Speaker 1: I answer all the questions. I read all the super Chats.
- 28:20Speaker 1: Sometimes slips into the next show, not today. I don't
- 28:23Speaker 1: think we'll have that many, but you know, yeah, I
- 28:26Speaker 1: read them all. So come and participate, engage. I know.
- 28:31Speaker 1: I see a lot of comments on the comments after
- 28:34Speaker 1: the videos about things people disagree with me. I wish
- 28:38Speaker 1: they'd come on the show and tell me and ask
- 28:40Speaker 1: questions and challenge me on the question. We get a few,
- 28:44Speaker 1: we get a few, but come on the show. I
- 28:47Speaker 1: love to answer the crazy stuff that you guys think.
- 28:51Speaker 1: I love to respond to it. And yeah, somebody's writing
- 29:00Speaker 1: about Einran being Jewish. Asked me about that? What I
- 29:05Speaker 1: think about being Jewish? Generally ask me about it. That'd
- 29:09Speaker 1: be cool, all right. So another set of mythologies that
- 29:19Speaker 1: exists out there, and a lot of what we do
- 29:21Speaker 1: in the show is talk about kind of the bs
- 29:24Speaker 1: that that goes for commentary and news out there in
- 29:28Speaker 1: the world. Another set of mythologies we talked yesterday about,
- 29:31Speaker 1: like the complete distortion of history and how people are
- 29:34Speaker 1: radical radicalized by some of the most stupid stuff there is. Yeah,
- 29:43Speaker 1: super chep me was Gnub. I don't know who Gnub
- 29:46Speaker 1: is anyway. Yeah. So one of those that I saw
- 29:53Speaker 1: yes yesterday. I was going to comment on it yesterday
- 29:55Speaker 1: but didn't ever, you ran out of time. One of
- 29:58Speaker 1: those was one of those is a headline I read,
- 30:06Speaker 1: and this is the headline, white fertility collapsed. The rest
- 30:12Speaker 1: of the planet didn't. Now, I just scratched my hair
- 30:17Speaker 1: had quite a bed on that one. White fertility. First
- 30:21Speaker 1: of all, it's just bizarre to me that people think
- 30:28Speaker 1: in terms of whiteness. I don't know what that means.
- 30:32Speaker 1: I don't really care. Why should I care if white
- 30:34Speaker 1: fertility collapsed? Why do I care about white people? Who
- 30:38Speaker 1: the fo white people? What is white people? What does
- 30:42Speaker 1: it even mean? I mean the amount of what's called melt.
- 30:47Speaker 1: Melt is something in your skin that determines whether you're
- 30:49Speaker 1: white or not. Why is that important? How does that
- 30:51Speaker 1: determine anything? How is that relevant for anything? I really do,
- 30:58Speaker 1: and I know many of you will be insulted by this.
- 31:00Speaker 1: They'll be, I'll be the comment section will just go
- 31:03Speaker 1: nuts over this. But I can't wait for the day
- 31:07Speaker 1: when you know we're all mutts wall you can differentiate us.
- 31:15Speaker 1: There's no line, right, I mean, people are really really
- 31:20Speaker 1: dark have now become you know, less dark, and people
- 31:23Speaker 1: really really light and become less light, and we're all
- 31:25Speaker 1: basically the same from an insignificant perspective of the color
- 31:29Speaker 1: of us skin. Maybe well, then focus on something else.
- 31:32Speaker 1: I don't know the shape of our eyebrows. I'm sure
- 31:38Speaker 1: they won't because racists won't give up. They won't give up.
- 31:43Speaker 1: They'll they'll find other distinguishing characteristics. Who the hell cares?
- 31:49Speaker 1: Race doesn't exist. It's a complete social construct. It's a
- 31:55Speaker 1: made up thing really, from the late eighteenth century and
- 31:59Speaker 1: into the nineteenth cent. Human beings exist, individual human beings,
- 32:08Speaker 1: And of all the characteristics one can attribute to individual
- 32:12Speaker 1: human beings, the skin color seems to me to be
- 32:15Speaker 1: the least important, the least significant, the least meaningful. So
- 32:20Speaker 1: the first thing that struck me in the headline is white.
- 32:22Speaker 1: Who cares? Second, it's just false, it's true. White fertility
- 32:28Speaker 1: is collapsed. But then the second part is the rest
- 32:31Speaker 1: of the world didn't. That's just completely, utterly, unbelievably false.
- 32:41Speaker 1: The article says, then, in the generation now starting school
- 32:44Speaker 1: is the first and recorded history that will grow up
- 32:46Speaker 1: on a planet where people of European descent are a
- 32:49Speaker 1: shrinking global minority. I mean people of European descent have
- 32:54Speaker 1: always been a minority, and yes, the shrinking, but so
- 32:58Speaker 1: is everybody else. Have you seen birth rates in Asia?
- 33:03Speaker 1: Like have you seen the birth rates in South Korea?
- 33:08Speaker 1: South Koreans are disappearing faster than Europeans Japanese. Have you
- 33:16Speaker 1: seen the birth rates in China? I mean Asians, East
- 33:21Speaker 1: Asians are disappearing. Even in India, which has had relatively
- 33:26Speaker 1: very high birth rates, their birth rates are collapsing. They're not,
- 33:32Speaker 1: you know, way down there below Evaser yet. But if
- 33:36Speaker 1: you look, you know, Italy is at one point two
- 33:39Speaker 1: five children per woman. I mean South Korea and Japan
- 33:42Speaker 1: would would would would kill for one point two four,
- 33:45Speaker 1: Spain one point two three, Germany one point three six.
- 33:48Speaker 1: Remember two point one is replacement. Poland one point twenty six,
- 33:52Speaker 1: Canada one point three three, Australia one point five eight.
- 33:56Speaker 1: Even the US non Hispanic white rate is only one
- 33:59Speaker 1: point six four. Yeah, meanwhile Toky is one point nine nine.
- 34:04Speaker 1: But here's the thing. The headline didn't say that fertility
- 34:12Speaker 1: in other countries, cultures, parts of the world, was that
- 34:20Speaker 1: it was higher than than in Europe. That's not what
- 34:23Speaker 1: the headlines say. It said fertility is collapsing. Well, fertility
- 34:27Speaker 1: is collapsing. In Tokey, it used to be three four five,
- 34:31Speaker 1: it's now only two. And guess what direction that's heading down?
- 34:36Speaker 1: Each of two point nine down from like six. Nigeria's
- 34:40Speaker 1: five point two down from like eight. Pakistan is three
- 34:44Speaker 1: point four down from like six, Indonesia two point two
- 34:48Speaker 1: down from like four five, and most of Sahavan Africa
- 34:52Speaker 1: remains above four down from above eight. The world fertility
- 35:00Speaker 1: is collapsing, and the reality is. The reality is this
- 35:06Speaker 1: was a really interesting data point that I didn't realize,
- 35:09Speaker 1: But it's true. Who do you think has more kids
- 35:13Speaker 1: in America today? Put people or rich people? Put aside
- 35:20Speaker 1: race because that's unimportant, but put people of rich people,
- 35:23Speaker 1: who has more kids? Who has more kids? In Europe?
- 35:29Speaker 1: In European countries, put people a rich people. The answer
- 35:35Speaker 1: is rich people, rich people having more kids than poor people.
- 35:41Speaker 1: Partially because with all the opportunities that are available, rich
- 35:46Speaker 1: people can afford to have their to have you know,
- 35:52Speaker 1: two family incomes, and to pay for childcare and for
- 35:55Speaker 1: an suv and for a big house. Put people have
- 36:00Speaker 1: fewer kids because they can't afford the childcare. The mother
- 36:02Speaker 1: still has to work, but they can't affoid the childcare,
- 36:04Speaker 1: and therefore they had fewer kids. So you're much more
- 36:09Speaker 1: likely to three to see in the US three kids
- 36:14Speaker 1: in a family that is relatively wealthy than you are
- 36:19Speaker 1: in a family that's poor. And my guess, my guess
- 36:25Speaker 1: is that you will see start seeing that on a
- 36:28Speaker 1: national basis, poor countries their fertility rates are going to collapse.
- 36:37Speaker 1: Now I know you you know, these people don't care
- 36:39Speaker 1: about poor and rich. They care about skin color. It
- 36:42Speaker 1: happens that the poor countries also have different skin colors
- 36:45Speaker 1: than white, so the whites tend to be richer, at
- 36:47Speaker 1: least for now. So you know what you're getting is,
- 36:57Speaker 1: you know, complete change. The fertility is going to change.
- 37:08Speaker 1: The dynamics of fertility are changing dramatically to loge extent,
- 37:12Speaker 1: and I'd say overwhelmingly because women have opportunity costs. They
- 37:18Speaker 1: have other options they have alternatives. They don't have to
- 37:22Speaker 1: stay home and have kids four five sixty seven. They
- 37:27Speaker 1: can actually go study at university. They can go work
- 37:32Speaker 1: and make money and become less dependent on a man.
- 37:36Speaker 1: They can marry later and have maybe two kids or
- 37:40Speaker 1: one kid, or no kids at all, and live a
- 37:41Speaker 1: fulfilled life. I know some of you think that's impossible,
- 37:46Speaker 1: but in reality, it's very possible. So the reality is
- 38:04Speaker 1: the birth rates are going down all over the world.
- 38:07Speaker 1: I expect them to go down for a long time,
- 38:12Speaker 1: for decades to come, as poor countries become richer, as
- 38:18Speaker 1: women in poor countries gain rights and get the opportunity
- 38:22Speaker 1: to go out and actually work, as the opportunity cost
- 38:29Speaker 1: of not working, you know, it's just ridiculous. So they
- 38:33Speaker 1: work because again of the independence and the pleasure that
- 38:42Speaker 1: that brings them. And then what I expect will happen
- 38:51Speaker 1: is as people become richer and they have living robots
- 38:56Speaker 1: to do a lot of the you know, day to
- 38:59Speaker 1: day stuff that needs to get done, and maybe they
- 39:01Speaker 1: have AI tutors for their kids. And you know, who knows,
- 39:06Speaker 1: we've become really, really rich, we'll start having more kids.
- 39:10Speaker 1: And I think which people will lead that effort, we'll
- 39:13Speaker 1: have more kids. I mean, isn't it like the guy
- 39:18Speaker 1: who has the most kids right now is a lune
- 39:21Speaker 1: musk ideas what thirteen fourteen kids? And it's fascinating to
- 39:25Speaker 1: me that thed trador whatever don't know what to do
- 39:30Speaker 1: with their luonn musku is. On one hand, he's having
- 39:31Speaker 1: a lot of kids. That's good, we love kids, we
- 39:33Speaker 1: want it to be and you know, and then mostly
- 39:36Speaker 1: white kids. But he's doing it in this unconventional way
- 39:42Speaker 1: by sleeping with lots and lots of different women who
- 39:44Speaker 1: land up raising the kids by themselves, and the trad
- 39:47Speaker 1: guys that are like, oh, that's wrong, that's somehow, that's
- 39:49Speaker 1: how we're all wrong. But you know, but he's a guy,
- 39:52Speaker 1: so it's okay. Maybe Here's the thing, though, The thing
- 39:58Speaker 1: that really upsets them is not fertility rates are really collapsing.
- 40:02Speaker 1: It's not even the white fertility rates are collapsing. What
- 40:04Speaker 1: really upsets them. What really upsets them is immigration. Continuation
- 40:13Speaker 1: of the story. This is Mario Nafal on Twitter. Lay
- 40:17Speaker 1: on top of the largest sustained migration in human history
- 40:21Speaker 1: between twenty twenty twenty five, roughly one hundred and ten
- 40:23Speaker 1: million people moved from the global South to the north,
- 40:27Speaker 1: North America, Europe, and Australia, with un projections showing another
- 40:32Speaker 1: two to three hundred million by mid century. No previous empire,
- 40:36Speaker 1: no previous century, has ever been population has seen such
- 40:40Speaker 1: population movements on this scale. Yeah, I mean, it's not
- 40:45Speaker 1: that long ago that the entire human population, not that
- 40:48Speaker 1: long ago at all, was five hundred million people. So
- 40:52Speaker 1: I don't know if they mean that in terms of
- 40:55Speaker 1: migration as a percentage of the total population, or they
- 40:58Speaker 1: mean that as a shier number. Clearly is a she
- 41:01Speaker 1: in a number it's never been seen before, because there's
- 41:03Speaker 1: never been this many people before, And they say the
- 41:06Speaker 1: result is already visible in every major Western city, Native
- 41:10Speaker 1: children are minorities today in the public schools of London, Paris, Emsdam, Stockholm, Toronto, Sydney,
- 41:15Speaker 1: and most large American metros. The rest of the West
- 41:19Speaker 1: is simply next in line. By twenty forty twenty fifty,
- 41:22Speaker 1: the native born European descent will be minorities in the
- 41:26Speaker 1: under thirty age group in every single Western country without exception.
- 41:31Speaker 1: There is no longer a national story. It is the
- 41:34Speaker 1: biggest demographic turnover the world has ever witnessed. I somehow
- 41:40Speaker 1: doubt this is true, completely doubt this is true. Happening
- 41:44Speaker 1: in one human lifetime driven by fertility differentials, no government
- 41:49Speaker 1: has ever reversed and migration flows, no democracy has ever
- 41:53Speaker 1: stopped once they reach a critical mass. So much bs there,
- 42:01Speaker 1: partially because the world's never being this rich, never being
- 42:07Speaker 1: this prosperous, never being this easy to move, never being
- 42:11Speaker 1: this easy to communicate, never being this easy to produce,
- 42:16Speaker 1: never lived this long. Yeah, everything that happens from now
- 42:21Speaker 1: on is going to be different than what's happened in history,
- 42:24Speaker 1: because we are dramatically different than anything that's happened in history.
- 42:33Speaker 1: So yeah, here's the headline. I think it was the
- 42:37Speaker 1: same day, right a little later on the same day,
- 42:40Speaker 1: and this one was was this one was retweeted. I
- 42:44Speaker 1: think they were both retweeted by lun Musk, but this
- 42:47Speaker 1: one was definitely retreated by lun Musk. White nations, White nations.
- 42:52Speaker 1: It used to be coude and uncouth to even talk
- 42:56Speaker 1: this way, and now it's like poor white nations in
- 43:00Speaker 1: sinc The replacement is no longer a theory. Again. Mariona
- 43:07Speaker 1: Fazz goes on in what statisticians are labeling the most
- 43:10Speaker 1: coordinated demographic event ever recorded. Coordinated. Who's exactly coordinating in this?
- 43:15Speaker 1: Every single major white Western country has since early nineteen
- 43:19Speaker 1: nineties simultaneously slashed native birth rates below revelation. That's right.
- 43:24Speaker 1: I mean the government basically had a one child policy
- 43:27Speaker 1: in the West. They slashed. Every culture slashed. It's from
- 43:31Speaker 1: the top down slash birth rates. It's so this is
- 43:38Speaker 1: I mean, he considers himself journalists. This is such garbage reporting.
- 43:44Speaker 1: Nobody slashed birth rates. Birthrates went down, not because anybody
- 43:49Speaker 1: decided they should go down, but because individuals made decisions
- 43:53Speaker 1: about their own lives. And you see, but when you
- 43:55Speaker 1: don't think about individuals, when you can only think about groups,
- 43:59Speaker 1: only think about nations, only think about races, only think
- 44:02Speaker 1: in terms of collectives tribes, then birth rates were slashed.
- 44:08Speaker 1: But no individuals made decisions in their own context, of
- 44:11Speaker 1: their own lives that led to low birth rates. Okay,
- 44:14Speaker 1: who cares simultaneously slash native birth rates? Somebody slashed made
- 44:20Speaker 1: birth rates below replacement while importing importing, I love that
- 44:24Speaker 1: word importing. We brought them in, We bought them like slaves.
- 44:29Speaker 1: Importing third world migration at levels that now drive eighty
- 44:33Speaker 1: to one hundred percent of their population growth. Census bureaus
- 44:38Speaker 1: from Washington to Warsaw are spilling the same terrifying numbers.
- 44:42Speaker 1: Farn Born shares of double triple, the worst in just
- 44:45Speaker 1: one generation. Oh my god, the world is going to end.
- 44:48Speaker 1: Sweden nineteen percent, Germany twenty percent, Canada pushing thirty percent.
- 44:52Speaker 1: Fans in the UK on the same trajectory. The platterin
- 44:56Speaker 1: is identical, the timing eerily aligned. There's a concer expiracy here.
- 45:00Speaker 1: There has to be. It's all planned. It's the world
- 45:04Speaker 1: Economic Forum. I think even Iceland, even Iceland has got
- 45:11Speaker 1: now twenty three point one percent farign Born. Iceland will
- 45:16Speaker 1: never be the same. That white ice and the white
- 45:19Speaker 1: skin that people have was attuned, people were tuned with nature.
- 45:24Speaker 1: And now there'll be brown skin on ice, on white snow.
- 45:28Speaker 1: I don't know if that's allowed. That's that's all wrong.
- 45:33Speaker 1: It goes against nature, it goes against the harmony whatever
- 45:39Speaker 1: aging boomers, collapsing pensions, corporate demand for endless growth, and
- 45:43Speaker 1: a corporate demand for endless growth. I love that. And
- 45:45Speaker 1: a post nineteen forty five legal framework weaponized to make
- 45:49Speaker 1: restrictive possible radioactive. No single phone call is no single
- 45:54Speaker 1: phone callers ever needed. The incentives locked in the media, narrative,
- 45:58Speaker 1: locked in the NGOs, and thought's locked in. The scent
- 46:02Speaker 1: was simply labeled hate until the numbers became undeniable. No
- 46:08Speaker 1: differentiation here between Islamist migration dedicated to turning Europe into
- 46:14Speaker 1: an Islamist caliphud and just plain old people migrating for
- 46:19Speaker 1: economic reasons, which is wonderful. Yeah, some migration is bad.
- 46:29Speaker 1: If the migrants are coming in order to change you,
- 46:32Speaker 1: that's bad. But if the migrants are coming to change themselves,
- 46:37Speaker 1: that's good. But you can't differentiate those because what matters
- 46:45Speaker 1: really to these people is skin color. Skin color. I mean,
- 47:00Speaker 1: if Mariana Fas is worried about Africa having high birth rates,
- 47:06Speaker 1: I've got a solution for it. He should advocate for
- 47:10Speaker 1: women to be educated for feminist emancipation and birth rates
- 47:16Speaker 1: in Africa will go down. Happens everywhere everywhere. Now there's
- 47:23Speaker 1: an issue about people not having kids and not getting married.
- 47:30Speaker 1: I think people are missing out by doing so. But
- 47:34Speaker 1: that's a different conversation worth having about the value of
- 47:38Speaker 1: marriage and the value of having kids. And you know,
- 47:44Speaker 1: the lack of meaning in the modern world. And you know,
- 47:47Speaker 1: it's a funny thing, is how much I find myself
- 47:51Speaker 1: on these shows defending the modern world when I'm such
- 47:56Speaker 1: a big critic of it. Because the criticisms I hear
- 48:02Speaker 1: are so off base, are so misaligned with reality, are
- 48:07Speaker 1: so you know, unconnected to what's really going on and
- 48:13Speaker 1: what the real problems are. Then I find myself constantly
- 48:17Speaker 1: defending the status quo. I don't want the status quo.
- 48:20Speaker 1: I want to blow up the status quo, but not
- 48:23Speaker 1: to go backwards to twelve twenty, but to go forward
- 48:26Speaker 1: to twenty two hundred. Not to reject the Enlightenment and
- 48:34Speaker 1: embrace a Christian theocracy as an white Christian theocracy, as
- 48:39Speaker 1: most of these people do, but because I want to
- 48:43Speaker 1: go forward to fully embrace the Enlightenment, fully, embrace reason fully, embrace,
- 48:48Speaker 1: embrace self interest fully, fully fully embrace capitalism, and then
- 48:54Speaker 1: see what individuals choose to do with their life. Have kids,
- 48:56Speaker 1: not have kids, by a big house, by a small house, work,
- 49:03Speaker 1: stay home, get married, not get married. I want people
- 49:07Speaker 1: to have choices, choices in the best possible world, in
- 49:14Speaker 1: a world where they have many, many, many good choices,
- 49:19Speaker 1: not in the world in which we live with you know,
- 49:21Speaker 1: a lot of crappy choices, a lot of choices dictated
- 49:24Speaker 1: by from above by governments, and a lot of you know,
- 49:30Speaker 1: garbage analysis and commentary by out people who call themselves intellectuals.
- 49:40Speaker 1: All right, we are approaching the end of the first hour.
- 49:44Speaker 1: We're still short in terms of our goals. So if
- 49:48Speaker 1: you would like to support the show, see it grow,
- 49:51Speaker 1: and if you would like to just value for value
- 49:56Speaker 1: for the content you're receiving, jump in with a sticker,
- 49:59Speaker 1: any amount with a question. Questions twenty dollars, fifty dollars,
- 50:03Speaker 1: questions are particularly appreciated. All right, let us continue with this,
- 50:08Speaker 1: with the with the discussion, because the next story I
- 50:11Speaker 1: have is about talent and immigration. And you know, there's
- 50:16Speaker 1: a story today post today on the American Enterprise Institute's
- 50:21Speaker 1: website talking about immigration and the reality that if you
- 50:28Speaker 1: look at today's economy, today's economy is driven by a
- 50:32Speaker 1: relatively small set of individuals who are pushing forward. Economic
- 50:36Speaker 1: growth today is dependent on a few industries, mainly in
- 50:40Speaker 1: Silicon Valley, that are pushing things forward. Chip makers, things
- 50:46Speaker 1: like chip makers, you know, designers, you know, AI programmers,
- 50:53Speaker 1: you know, this is in research groups technology. This is
- 50:56Speaker 1: where things are being pushed and where economic growth manifests itself.
- 51:05Speaker 1: If you think about that, you know you need to
- 51:14Speaker 1: be high skilled for that to keep pushing the frontiers
- 51:20Speaker 1: of innovation, the frontiers of science, the frontiers of engineering,
- 51:23Speaker 1: the frontiers of AI and everything that it implies. And
- 51:27Speaker 1: even when it comes to national security, if you constantly
- 51:30Speaker 1: want to combat the latest generation of drones, the latest
- 51:33Speaker 1: generation of AI, the latest generation of electronic interference, you
- 51:39Speaker 1: need smart people. You need a lot of smart people.
- 51:44Speaker 1: You need people with extraordinary abilities. It's the kind of
- 51:51Speaker 1: cognitive abilities that maybe one in one thousand people have
- 51:57Speaker 1: that would make about one hundred and sixty four thousand
- 51:59Speaker 1: Americans eligible. And let's say out of those, maybe one
- 52:04Speaker 1: hundred thousand are actually going to go into these areas
- 52:07Speaker 1: and fields and actually manifest this. One hundred thousand. That's it.
- 52:12Speaker 1: One hundred thousand people are going to drive the US economy.
- 52:15Speaker 1: I mean, there's just not enough Americans now. The way
- 52:21Speaker 1: we've done this in the past is no problem. We
- 52:25Speaker 1: suck into America the best, the smartest, the most able,
- 52:29Speaker 1: the most hard working people in the world. We bring
- 52:34Speaker 1: them to this country from everywhere. Indeed, China has played
- 52:39Speaker 1: a huge role in this. You know, five Asian countries India, China,
- 52:44Speaker 1: South Korea, Japan, and Philippines account for over thirty eight
- 52:48Speaker 1: percent of the growth in US software developers, twenty five
- 52:51Speaker 1: percent of the increase in scientists and engineers, twenty one
- 52:55Speaker 1: percent in the growth of physicians between nineteen ninety and
- 52:59Speaker 1: nineteen nineteen. So we would have significantly less software engineers, scientists,
- 53:07Speaker 1: physicians if we hadn't brought people in from those five
- 53:10Speaker 1: Asian countries. You know, in twenty nineteen, we had four
- 53:20Speaker 1: hundred thousand Chinese students studying in American universities. That was
- 53:25Speaker 1: more than a third of all international students in America.
- 53:30Speaker 1: Now that is declining significantly, and it's going to decline
- 53:36Speaker 1: even more under the you know, under the Trump administration.
- 53:50Speaker 1: I mean, when Meta launched its super Intelligence Lab, it
- 53:54Speaker 1: hired eleven researchers, eleven people into the super Intelligence Lab.
- 54:00Speaker 1: These are the best of the best in AI, all
- 54:06Speaker 1: of them, all eleven, every single one of them was
- 54:10Speaker 1: an immigrant. Seven of the eleven were from China. Indeed,
- 54:18Speaker 1: one third of the world's top AI scientists researchers are Chinese,
- 54:24Speaker 1: and most of those work in the United States. So
- 54:29Speaker 1: if you cut people off, if you don't accept Chinese immigration,
- 54:34Speaker 1: these people stay in China, and all the talent stays
- 54:37Speaker 1: in China. It doesn't come here. Does that benefit of
- 54:40Speaker 1: the United States, But we stay white and poor and
- 54:46Speaker 1: maybe occupied by the Greater Chinese Empire one day because they,
- 54:52Speaker 1: you know, they sucked up all the talent we didn't.
- 54:57Speaker 1: We're trying to restrict immigration. We're trying to restrict immigration
- 55:01Speaker 1: from everywhere. We're trying to restrict immigration of talented people,
- 55:05Speaker 1: of exceptional people, trying to restrict immigration in particular of Chinese.
- 55:12Speaker 1: And it's nuts. It is completely nuts. It's insane. Now, yeah,
- 55:20Speaker 1: we've got some security issues with China and you have
- 55:22Speaker 1: to vet these people and you have to watch out
- 55:24Speaker 1: fur them, but it's worth it. A few of them
- 55:28Speaker 1: will be spies, will survive, will thrive. Some of those
- 55:35Speaker 1: European scientists we brought in after World War Two who
- 55:37Speaker 1: all build atomic bombs and our hydrogen bombs and stuff,
- 55:40Speaker 1: turned out to be spies too. All we still beat
- 55:45Speaker 1: the Soviets, we still did better. And part of why
- 55:48Speaker 1: we beat the Soviets. Part of why we beat communism,
- 55:50Speaker 1: part of why we're richer than China, part of why
- 55:53Speaker 1: we're still the most successful country in the world is
- 55:57Speaker 1: because we've been open to immigrants, wide open to immigrants.
- 56:03Speaker 1: And now we view immigrants as a pest, as diluting
- 56:09Speaker 1: our whiteness, as making us poorer, as making us more violent.
- 56:16Speaker 1: All untrue, But it doesn't matter statistics. Don't let statistics
- 56:21Speaker 1: ever interfere with you know, I mean, don't let facts.
- 56:26Speaker 1: Don't let reality ever interfere with ideal you know, people's
- 56:29Speaker 1: ideology out there. I mean, a good friend Miller in
- 56:42Speaker 1: the Trump administration says migrants is just avatars of the
- 56:47Speaker 1: average characteristics of their own home country. This is not true.
- 56:53Speaker 1: Immigrants are individuals. Some of them are bad. Some of
- 56:58Speaker 1: them are bad, and you should deal with them, deport them,
- 57:02Speaker 1: put them in prison. But when they come here, if
- 57:10Speaker 1: we let them, if we encourage them, and mainly if
- 57:14Speaker 1: we just don't give them handouts, they don't become images
- 57:20Speaker 1: of what they wore back then. I mean, the best
- 57:22Speaker 1: example of this are Indians. I mean, Miller claims, to
- 57:29Speaker 1: quote Milla, that they recreate the conditions and terrors of
- 57:34Speaker 1: their broken homelands. Look at Indians, Indians a poor country
- 57:41Speaker 1: with a lower GDP per capita than Jamaica, Guatemala, South Africa,
- 57:47Speaker 1: very poor country, not hygienic, not a pleasant place. And
- 57:55Speaker 1: yet Indians come to America they become super ye, super successful.
- 58:02Speaker 1: They're a median household income, way above the American average,
- 58:07Speaker 1: even white American average. They're way over represented when it
- 58:14Speaker 1: comes to CEOs at elite colleges. And yet Indias in
- 58:17Speaker 1: India have arranged marriages and their tribal and they're you know,
- 58:23Speaker 1: they have a caste system. You know, they're untouchables. I mean,
- 58:27Speaker 1: it's completely cast different. They come to America and except
- 58:30Speaker 1: America as it is, and all those traditions, all those
- 58:34Speaker 1: all those bad stuff, it breaks away, it dissolves, it
- 58:36Speaker 1: goes away within one maybe two generations, all gone. But
- 58:41Speaker 1: think about how many of the leading CEOs in America
- 58:44Speaker 1: today are Indian. How many of Indians children of Indian
- 58:50Speaker 1: immigrants are in elite colleges. Now, it's true that the
- 58:58Speaker 1: people who immigrate from India the United States are not random.
- 59:02Speaker 1: They're the people who have the ambition, the wherewithal to
- 59:07Speaker 1: immigrate to America. They have above average drive. They're more conscientious,
- 59:12Speaker 1: the more ambitious they want to be in America. They
- 59:15Speaker 1: don't want to be in India anymore. And that's true
- 59:17Speaker 1: of almost all immigrants. I mean, the idea of keeping
- 59:25Speaker 1: immigrants out, particularly successful Indian immigrants out, is barbaric. American
- 59:31Speaker 1: whites who want to keep Indians out of America on Neanderthals,
- 59:45Speaker 1: it's barbaric. It's placing an essential on your skin color.
- 59:54Speaker 1: Or they're just cowards. Really, this is it. They're afraid
- 59:58Speaker 1: of the competition. They're afraid a beaten for their job
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: by somebody who doesn't look like them, who's going to
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: make more money than them, who's going to be more
- 1:00:09Speaker 1: successful than them. Oh, Fred's an electrician. He doesn't want
- 1:00:16Speaker 1: competition from Indian electricians. They might actually be better at
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: their jobs than Fred. They might make more money than Fred.
- 1:00:24Speaker 1: They might get the kids into Harvard easier than Fred
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: gets his kids into Harvard. So yeah, immigration birth rates.
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: Nostalgia for some distant past is so much driven by
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: a zenophobia, a racism, a kind of a barbaric you know,
- 1:01:04Speaker 1: longing for some distant place that never really existed. And
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: it's driven more than anything by fear. It's driven by blood.
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: Heites who don't want their life challenge, don't want their
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: income challenge, don't want their jobs challenged, don't want their
- 1:01:28Speaker 1: culture challenged. It's the culture, they tell me. Well, I mean,
- 1:01:33Speaker 1: if you believe your culture is so good as we did,
- 1:01:36Speaker 1: as we used to believe in this country, then we
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: assimilate everybody. They adapt to our culture. We don't adapt
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: to theirs. Again, they're cowards, they're afraid. They actually don't
- 1:01:49Speaker 1: believe in American culture. They don't believe the American culture
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: is strong. They don't believe the American culture is resilient.
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: And maybe elements of American culture are not. Maybe that
- 1:02:01Speaker 1: part of the culture that involves sitting around on your
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: sofa drinking beer, watching TV, skimping on work, skimping on education,
- 1:02:13Speaker 1: skimping on ambition, relying on welfare, maybe that part of
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: the American culture needs to die. And maybe some boost
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: of some energy for migrants who will compete with you.
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: But the part of American culture, the independence that don't
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: step on me, go get them the wealth, creation, including
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: the sports and everything else. If we're so confident that
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: that's good and it is good, I think then the
- 1:02:48Speaker 1: immigrants will just assimilate into it. The Jews who came
- 1:02:52Speaker 1: in the late nineteenth century, and the Irish and the Italians,
- 1:02:56Speaker 1: the Eastern Europeans and the Russians who came here, they
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: didn't have a similar culture to what America had in
- 1:03:05Speaker 1: the nineteenth century. They loved, they changed within a couple
- 1:03:10Speaker 1: of generations. They were Americans, just like anybody else. So
- 1:03:15Speaker 1: what is it you're afraid of that they have a
- 1:03:16Speaker 1: different color skin. I don't have hostility towards Americans. I
- 1:03:22Speaker 1: love Americans. I am an American God. I have hostility
- 1:03:27Speaker 1: towards anybody of any skin color, any nationality that believes
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: believes in stagnation. I have hostility towards anybody of any
- 1:03:37Speaker 1: skin color who evaluates other people based on their skin
- 1:03:40Speaker 1: color or their nation of origin. I have hostility towards
- 1:03:45Speaker 1: anybody of any skin color who's a tribalist and a collectivist.
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: And the thing is about America and Americans that I love. Oh,
- 1:03:58Speaker 1: here we go, here we go. Here's the question. Right,
- 1:04:02Speaker 1: are you Jewish? There's the question? So yes, Fred is
- 1:04:07Speaker 1: not just not just afraid of immigrants that might change
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: his culture, but he's just afraid of Jews, or he
- 1:04:20Speaker 1: just hates Jews, or he just things we run the
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: world and are trying to destroy him. Good. I'm glad
- 1:04:28Speaker 1: he's afraid. He should be afraid. America that I love
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: is an America of individualism and America of individuals, an
- 1:04:41Speaker 1: America of ambition, an America of achievement, and America of nothing.
- 1:04:50Speaker 1: No aim is impossible, No great achievement is out of reach.
- 1:04:58Speaker 1: And America that ins people from anywhere in the world
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: as individuals and treats them the way they deserve, if
- 1:05:06Speaker 1: they're productive, if they good human beings, treats them well,
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: is it criminals, put them in jail or send them packing.
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: That's the America worth saving. That's the America worth protecting. Yeah,
- 1:05:36Speaker 1: here it is. Here's the anti Semitism coming through. Do
- 1:05:39Speaker 1: Jewish people, and I'm reading this in the chat just
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: because you have to confront some of these straight on.
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: Do Jewish people advocate for immigrants as a means of
- 1:05:47Speaker 1: protecting themselves as they have done poorly in countries that
- 1:05:50Speaker 1: are ethnically homogeneous. Really, Jews in England, they have done
- 1:05:55Speaker 1: phenomenally well. England's fairly used to be fairly homogeneous and
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: in the nineteenth century. Jews did amazingly well in England.
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: Jews did amazingly well in Germany, amazingly well. In ethnically
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: homogeneous Germany, Jews did better than Germans. Maybe that's why
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: they were hated so much. Jews have done everywhere well,
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: whether they have been in homogeneous society or heterogeneous societies.
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: I mean, just look at America. Have Jews done well
- 1:06:32Speaker 1: in America because people came in who are less good?
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: Or did Jews do well in America because they out educated, outcompeted,
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: out thought many of the nan Jews because they were
- 1:06:47Speaker 1: more American than many Americans. See, this is the thing.
- 1:06:52Speaker 1: People like freed have been left behind. They're not succeeding.
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: The Indians are doing better than them. Oh have done
- 1:07:00Speaker 1: better than them for generations. Now those immigrants, I'll compete them,
- 1:07:06Speaker 1: do better, live better lives, and feed as upset. Fred
- 1:07:14Speaker 1: as upset. I advocate for freedom. Immigration is just an
- 1:07:21Speaker 1: aspect of freedom. I advocate for American's right to employ
- 1:07:28Speaker 1: anybody he wants to. It's none of the government's business
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: if that's a Mexican, if that's a Guatemalan, as long
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: as they're not a threat as long as they're not
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: they don't violate people's rights. I advocate for individuals, individual rights, individualism.
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: I advocate for the America, America of the nineteenth century,
- 1:07:47Speaker 1: where people could come from anywhere in the world, and
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: as long as they worked and fed themselves, they thrived.
- 1:08:01Speaker 1: I advocate for immigrants because I love America and America
- 1:08:08Speaker 1: is the land of individuals of any skin color. Israel
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: is a multicultural state. This is a question, do you
- 1:08:17Speaker 1: want multicultural un Isuela? Israe is one of the most
- 1:08:19Speaker 1: multicultural places on planet Earth. There are Jews in Israel
- 1:08:23Speaker 1: from Morocco, from Yemen, from Iraq, from Uzbekistan, as well
- 1:08:29Speaker 1: as from Russia and from Poland, from France and from Spain,
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: from Ethiopia. There are black Jews, completely black skin Jews.
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: There are brown skin Jews. You want to tell me
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: about Israel, Fred, Really, you ever been there? How many
- 1:08:50Speaker 1: years have you lived in Israel? I love it when
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: people are going to lecture me about Israel. And of
- 1:09:00Speaker 1: these really population, twenty percent of these redly population I'm
- 1:09:03Speaker 1: not even counting the West Bank and Gaza just in
- 1:09:05Speaker 1: Israel are Arabs. They might be Muslim Arabs, though Christian Arabs,
- 1:09:13Speaker 1: but they're Abbs. The reason I am playing amount with
- 1:09:20Speaker 1: fred it is because you know, you say Fed is
- 1:09:23Speaker 1: done as a post. I don't think Fed is done
- 1:09:24Speaker 1: as a post. I think Fed is typical of what
- 1:09:28Speaker 1: many many people out there, many young people out there think,
- 1:09:35Speaker 1: many young people think out there. So yeah, Israel is,
- 1:09:41Speaker 1: as I said, multicultural place. Israel is a place that
- 1:09:46Speaker 1: has twenty percent Arabs. Israel is a place that has
- 1:09:53Speaker 1: people from all over the world. The only thing that
- 1:09:56Speaker 1: unites those people eighty percent is that none Jews consider
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: them Jews. That's the only thing that unites them. And
- 1:10:07Speaker 1: Israel is the place for Jews to escape to, that's all.
- 1:10:14Speaker 1: And you know I'm for that as long as anti
- 1:10:17Speaker 1: Semitism exists, that Jews have a place to escape to.
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: If Frenchmen were being hunted down, then it's good that
- 1:10:30Speaker 1: they be one country where Frenchmen can go where they
- 1:10:32Speaker 1: won't be hunted down. So that is, that is the
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: value of Israel. America is never ethnocentric state, and it
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: shouldn't be now, shouldn't be. Now? All right, let's do
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: a few of these quickly. First, climate change. I've told
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: you climate change is on the retreat. The environmentalist movement
- 1:11:05Speaker 1: is not having a good, good, good time. First, a
- 1:11:09Speaker 1: Trumpet administration today lowered this is the kind of stuff
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: that Trump does that is good, that is really good,
- 1:11:16Speaker 1: and this is kind of offsets all the bad offsets
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: in terms of economics, not in terms of the character
- 1:11:21Speaker 1: of the administration, but offsets in terms of economics the
- 1:11:24Speaker 1: bad stuff that he does. Trumpet administration today lowered fuel
- 1:11:29Speaker 1: economy rules for car makers, so Biden raised them. Now,
- 1:11:33Speaker 1: ideally they would go to Congress and eliminate them completely,
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: but you know, lowering them is better than nothing, and
- 1:11:40Speaker 1: lowering them is significant because if you lower them enough,
- 1:11:43Speaker 1: then you get to the point where it's not it
- 1:11:46Speaker 1: doesn't matter to auto companies. Now, I don't know if
- 1:11:48Speaker 1: you know how fuel economy works. They set a standard
- 1:11:51Speaker 1: like fifty miles per gallon, which is what I think
- 1:11:54Speaker 1: the Obama you know, the Biden standard was by twenty something,
- 1:12:00Speaker 1: twenty twenty thirty two. What that means is the every
- 1:12:03Speaker 1: car makeup on average, the car that it makes have
- 1:12:06Speaker 1: to be that. So they can make make SUVs and
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: pickup trucks that are gas guzzling, where actually American car companies,
- 1:12:16Speaker 1: you know, do very well with those cars. They make
- 1:12:18Speaker 1: a good profit on them. But in order to sell
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: those cars, they have to sell a bunch of small
- 1:12:23Speaker 1: cars that have very very high gas mileage, or maybe
- 1:12:27Speaker 1: they have to sell a bunch of electric cars in
- 1:12:29Speaker 1: order that are on average they're the fifty miles per gallon.
- 1:12:35Speaker 1: The lower that average is, the fewer electric cars, the
- 1:12:39Speaker 1: fewer small cars American companies can make, which is good.
- 1:12:44Speaker 1: It's good because American companies are not good at making
- 1:12:47Speaker 1: small cars. They never have been if the market had
- 1:12:51Speaker 1: been allowed to work, if the government never intervened. I believe,
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: I mean, I can't prove this, and maybe I'm wrong,
- 1:12:58Speaker 1: but I believe have happened is instead of the American
- 1:13:02Speaker 1: car company is going bankrupt every decade, American car companies
- 1:13:06Speaker 1: would have specialized in the cause that they have a
- 1:13:10Speaker 1: comparative advantage in because gas guzzling cars, pickup trucks, SUVs,
- 1:13:18Speaker 1: station wagons, and just big cause. And they would have
- 1:13:23Speaker 1: left the small cause to the Japanese and there would
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: have been a division of labor. There's absolutely no reason
- 1:13:33Speaker 1: for Ford and Ge General Motors to be making little
- 1:13:38Speaker 1: cars that they can't make any money on. They can't
- 1:13:42Speaker 1: make any money on and that, you know, they don't
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: make any sense to them. They're not particularly good at building.
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: They should build the stuff they're good at. They should specialize.
- 1:13:58Speaker 1: But the gas mileage rules, the fuel economy rules force
- 1:14:03Speaker 1: auto companies to make small cars. Trump blowing this allows
- 1:14:09Speaker 1: a little bit more specialization. Again, eliminating it would let
- 1:14:12Speaker 1: the car industry in a sense focus on specialization. I
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: mean BMW should make you know, uh, a model three
- 1:14:23Speaker 1: little sports Sedan's, Mercedes should make luxury cars to Yota
- 1:14:31Speaker 1: and and those guys should make should make small family cars.
- 1:14:35Speaker 1: There should be a division of Labman. The Chinese should
- 1:14:37Speaker 1: make electric cars. So this is great. Of course, the
- 1:14:44Speaker 1: environmentalists and the climate change people are going nuts because
- 1:14:47Speaker 1: these stands are being lowered, which means more gas guzzling,
- 1:14:50Speaker 1: which means more uh you know, uh, more yes, emissions. Uh.
- 1:14:57Speaker 1: The auto companies are loving it. General Motors Ford today
- 1:15:02Speaker 1: came out with a statement stellanis Kreisler. You know, I
- 1:15:07Speaker 1: really like this. So this is a This was a
- 1:15:11Speaker 1: very pro auto company move, but it's pro everybody moved.
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: This is a pro everybody move. It's a pro rights
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: pro freedom move. The second story I found with this
- 1:15:26Speaker 1: was really interesting and expected. But last year there was
- 1:15:32Speaker 1: a study published, an economic study published in Nature magazine. Nature,
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: of course is not an economic magazine, but it's a
- 1:15:40Speaker 1: science magazine, and the study was about the economic consequence
- 1:15:44Speaker 1: of climate change. It was an economic paper and it
- 1:15:48Speaker 1: basically said that climate change was going to be a disaster.
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: The research predicted decline of sixty two in world output
- 1:16:00Speaker 1: because of climate change by twenty one hundred, by twenty
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: one hundred, sixty two percent. Now, the study was criticized
- 1:16:08Speaker 1: almost immediately. People challenged them, and it turned out it's
- 1:16:14Speaker 1: this is funny. It's funny because this paper would have
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: never been published in the econ magazine economics magazine, because
- 1:16:22Speaker 1: this is just a stupid error that people would have
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: caught it very quickly. It turns out that one outlier,
- 1:16:29Speaker 1: one country outlier in the data, who's bicky stunt, That
- 1:16:36Speaker 1: outlier explains the entire sixty two percent decline. If you
- 1:16:42Speaker 1: take are as Bikki Stan out of the data, the
- 1:16:45Speaker 1: decline is only twenty three percent. And of course that
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: is such an amateur mistake, that is such a stupid
- 1:16:52Speaker 1: mistake in data analysis that the twenty two percent is
- 1:16:56Speaker 1: bogus probably as well. Of course other people. You could
- 1:17:01Speaker 1: challenge this paper on a one hundred different ways, but
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: the reality is that Nature has retracted the paper, which
- 1:17:08Speaker 1: is rare. The paper now if you click on it,
- 1:17:13Speaker 1: if you click on the paper, it's and this is
- 1:17:15Speaker 1: like a hugely cited paper. The UN Climate Reports cites
- 1:17:20Speaker 1: it in every climate organization in the world, every anti
- 1:17:24Speaker 1: fossil fuel group in the world have cited this paper
- 1:17:27Speaker 1: as proof that we need to do something about climate
- 1:17:29Speaker 1: change because climate change will destroy the economy of the planet.
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: And now at Nature, when you click out the paper,
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: it says retract that article. I love it. So climate
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: change is losing politically, it's losing the mind, the hearts
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: and minds of people. It's losing, and it's also losing
- 1:17:53Speaker 1: people are challenging it scientifically, its consequences scientifically, and there's
- 1:18:00Speaker 1: a lot more criticism if you actually run the numbers.
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: The amount of money to be invested in climate change
- 1:18:08Speaker 1: mitigation today, if you run the numbers properly, is zero
- 1:18:14Speaker 1: because of how much wealthier we will be if we
- 1:18:17Speaker 1: don't mitigate climate change. Climate change mitigation is unbelievably expensive.
- 1:18:22Speaker 1: And if you take that into account, then we're actually
- 1:18:25Speaker 1: better off suffering whatever economic damage happens because we're so
- 1:18:28Speaker 1: much richer and we can deal with whatever problems we
- 1:18:31Speaker 1: have later when we're richer. But you're never going to
- 1:18:36Speaker 1: see a paper like that published in Nature. But they
- 1:18:39Speaker 1: do exist out there in the economic literature in different places,
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: all right, quickly in Heckseth. Two stories today on Heckseth
- 1:18:49Speaker 1: one is the Bottom of Defense came back with its
- 1:18:52Speaker 1: conclusions about remember Hexseth texting with other people about the
- 1:18:59Speaker 1: operation and in Yemen months ago when the US bombed
- 1:19:04Speaker 1: the Hooties and basically you know. The report says the
- 1:19:11Speaker 1: Secretary sent non public Department of Defense information identifying the
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: quantity and strike times of manned US aircraft over hostile
- 1:19:20Speaker 1: territory over an unapproved, unsecure network approximately two to four
- 1:19:26Speaker 1: hours before the execution of those strikes, using a personal
- 1:19:30Speaker 1: cell phone to conduct official business and send non public
- 1:19:34Speaker 1: DoD information through signal risks, potential compromises of sensitive Department
- 1:19:40Speaker 1: of Defense information which could cause harm the defensive Department
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: personnel and mission objectives. In other words, hexset actions could
- 1:19:50Speaker 1: have engaged US pilots and US goals for the mission.
- 1:19:57Speaker 1: Hexset does not have the power to declassif fine, you
- 1:20:01Speaker 1: can't just by tweeting it make it declassified. You know
- 1:20:08Speaker 1: what's clear here with that? Uh? You know heck Sith
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: acted completely inappropriately during this and that this for any
- 1:20:18Speaker 1: other person, any other person, would have been a reason
- 1:20:26Speaker 1: to dismiss hex Sith, on the other hand, wrote no
- 1:20:32Speaker 1: classified information, total exoneration case closed, untrue, untrue. Inspector General
- 1:20:40Speaker 1: found that he again, I read it to you identified
- 1:20:44Speaker 1: you know, department non public, department defense information. That's classified information,
- 1:20:50Speaker 1: strike times, strike weapons, classified information. You can read the
- 1:20:55Speaker 1: report yourself. And yet he will not be fired. He
- 1:21:03Speaker 1: will now be fired. There. Report actually states if this
- 1:21:15Speaker 1: information had fallen into the hands of US advertaries, HUTI
- 1:21:19Speaker 1: forces might have been able to county US forces or
- 1:21:21Speaker 1: reposition personnel and assets to avoid planned US strikes. Even
- 1:21:26Speaker 1: though these events did not ultimately occur, the secretary's actions
- 1:21:30Speaker 1: created a risk to operational security that could have resulted
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: in failed US mission objectives and potential harm to US pilots.
- 1:21:40Speaker 1: This is a fireable offense. He should be fired for
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: this now. Of course, the second story is about the
- 1:21:46Speaker 1: bombing of the boats. The admiral who approved that accept
- 1:21:51Speaker 1: the claims he went to the bathroom and wasn't in
- 1:21:53Speaker 1: the room when that happened. You love a commander, a
- 1:22:00Speaker 1: a senior officer, the guy in charge of things, blaming
- 1:22:05Speaker 1: subordinates and claiming he was out peeing while the decisions
- 1:22:08Speaker 1: were made to cover his ass. I mean, Hexeth is
- 1:22:13Speaker 1: just pathetic, just pathetic, just pathetic. Should be fired for
- 1:22:29Speaker 1: both of those things. For not taking responsibility for the
- 1:22:31Speaker 1: boat strike, I mean, the boat strikes illegal anyway. They
- 1:22:35Speaker 1: should all they should all be fired for that. Trump
- 1:22:37Speaker 1: should be impeached for that. Uh uh. And he should
- 1:22:41Speaker 1: be fired for revealing or discussing classified information over an
- 1:22:46Speaker 1: unsecure network. Any other defense Chairman of chief, head of
- 1:22:52Speaker 1: the Defense Department, Secretary of War would have been fired. Finally,
- 1:22:57Speaker 1: I saw this story. This is kind of interesting and
- 1:22:59Speaker 1: fits into what we do here. It says that Americans
- 1:23:02Speaker 1: are paying a lot less attention to the news than
- 1:23:04Speaker 1: they used to. In twenty sixteen, which was the first
- 1:23:08Speaker 1: year Pew ran the survey, asking Americans if they're likely
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: to follow the news, closely fifty percent of Americans said yes.
- 1:23:17Speaker 1: Today it's thirty six percent. So Americans, this is true
- 1:23:22Speaker 1: of Democrats, true of Republicans. People are you know, listening
- 1:23:27Speaker 1: to the news, following the news, tracking the news a
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: lot less? A lot of it has to do with
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: the fact that they are convinced now that the news
- 1:23:36Speaker 1: is reported by mainstream media, but as well as the
- 1:23:40Speaker 1: non mainstream media is just unreliable and just it's not
- 1:23:47Speaker 1: worth it. It's what I tell you all the time. Don't
- 1:23:50Speaker 1: listen to news, don't keep track of it. Just come
- 1:23:52Speaker 1: to you Iron Book Show for our daily news shows,
- 1:23:55Speaker 1: and you'll get everything you need to know. There's nothing
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: in the news right now. I don't cover that you
- 1:24:01Speaker 1: need to know. And if I don't catch it today,
- 1:24:05Speaker 1: I'll catch it tomorrow. So yeah, this saves you. So
- 1:24:09Speaker 1: you know that I'm I guess having news shows like
- 1:24:12Speaker 1: this is part of their fifty one percent going to
- 1:24:15Speaker 1: thirty six percent. I do this. You don't have to
- 1:24:17Speaker 1: follow the news closely. Maybe there seems to be a
- 1:24:22Speaker 1: market for this, Maybe not for my particular views about
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: the news. Not maybe not for my particular you know opinions,
- 1:24:30Speaker 1: but for condensing the news and not having to follow it,
- 1:24:36Speaker 1: you know, as closely as maybe people once used to
- 1:24:39Speaker 1: would be good. And then finally, this is just a
- 1:24:42Speaker 1: funny thing. I saw this video of Christy Gnome yesterday.
- 1:24:47Speaker 1: So you know how Pam Bondi in the past has
- 1:24:51Speaker 1: said that President Trump has saved two hundred and fifty
- 1:24:54Speaker 1: eight million lives by stopping the floor of fence and
- 1:24:57Speaker 1: all into the United States. Two hundred and fifty eight
- 1:25:01Speaker 1: million lives. Now, no one that we haven't stuck to
- 1:25:06Speaker 1: flow fentanyl into the United State. It's still flowing in.
- 1:25:09Speaker 1: But secondly, the total number of overdoses in the United
- 1:25:14Speaker 1: States is seventy thousand. Seventy thousand. How are you going
- 1:25:18Speaker 1: to save two hundred and fifty eight million lives? That
- 1:25:20Speaker 1: assumes all of us would take fentanyl if not for
- 1:25:23Speaker 1: Donald Trump. And Donald Trump has prevented all of us
- 1:25:25Speaker 1: from taking fentanyl. And she says this, Pam Bondi, who
- 1:25:30Speaker 1: is an intelligent woman. I mean she has to be,
- 1:25:32Speaker 1: because she's she's you know, she's a you know, head
- 1:25:36Speaker 1: of the Justice Department. You have to be intelligent to
- 1:25:38Speaker 1: do that. No, No, no, two hundred and fifty eight million. Anyway,
- 1:25:44Speaker 1: Trump on Monday said that he has saved three hundred
- 1:25:49Speaker 1: million people no, he said on Monday, the three hundred
- 1:25:53Speaker 1: million people have died last year from drugs. Three hundred
- 1:25:58Speaker 1: million people. Wow, that would empty America. That would make
- 1:26:01Speaker 1: America very very thin if three hundred million people had died.
- 1:26:06Speaker 1: I mean, FED would like that if the people who
- 1:26:08Speaker 1: had died were all of non white skin color, and
- 1:26:12Speaker 1: whites could be a majority again. Oh, maybe we can
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: get the right drugs into the right hands. We could
- 1:26:19Speaker 1: do that. Well, Chris chrisy known today or no yesterday, yesterday,
- 1:26:24Speaker 1: when during the or the day before, whenever the cabinet
- 1:26:29Speaker 1: meeting was. She said, You've saved She says this to Trump,
- 1:26:33Speaker 1: You've saved hundreds of millions of lives with the cocaine
- 1:26:38Speaker 1: you've blown up in the Caribbean. Cocaine was not coming
- 1:26:42Speaker 1: to America, by the way, Cocaina was not coming to America. FED.
- 1:26:50Speaker 1: I'm not labeling you anything. I'm just I'm just identifying
- 1:26:55Speaker 1: your views from what you have said. You're worried about
- 1:26:59Speaker 1: white Americas on track to becoming minority. You don't like that.
- 1:27:03Speaker 1: I was just suggesting a path to make them a
- 1:27:06Speaker 1: majority again, because that's what you care about, that's what's
- 1:27:10Speaker 1: important to you. That matters to you. Now that is racist,
- 1:27:14Speaker 1: that it matters to you. That is absolutely one hundred
- 1:27:16Speaker 1: percent racist. That's just a fact. That's just the definition
- 1:27:19Speaker 1: of racism. But put that aside. I mean, I'm just
- 1:27:23Speaker 1: just trying to help you out here, give you, give
- 1:27:26Speaker 1: you a way to achieve your goal. I know, you know,
- 1:27:35Speaker 1: people don't like to be called racists. And you know,
- 1:27:40Speaker 1: and and they reflect back to when they left called
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: people racist when they weren't racists. But this is the problem.
- 1:27:48Speaker 1: Some pay people, sometimes people are racists, some pay people.
- 1:27:51Speaker 1: Sometimes people say things that are racists, that are racists.
- 1:27:56Speaker 1: And by saying things that are that are racists are racists.
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: They are racists by by saying things, so these are racist.
- 1:28:11Speaker 1: In an ideal world, in a world with no anti semitism,
- 1:28:18Speaker 1: I don't care who lives in is room. There's no
- 1:28:24Speaker 1: anti Americanism, there's no anti whiteness. There's no persecution of
- 1:28:28Speaker 1: white people going on in most of the world. Maybe
- 1:28:32Speaker 1: in a maybe in a few places, a little bit
- 1:28:33Speaker 1: in South Africa, but generally no. So you don't need
- 1:28:38Speaker 1: you know, if you're really worried about your whiteness, there's
- 1:28:40Speaker 1: plenty of other countries you can escape too, and you know,
- 1:28:45Speaker 1: create you a little white enclaves or whatever. So I
- 1:28:48Speaker 1: have no worry about whites being here. No, I have
- 1:28:58Speaker 1: no problem with skin color being the dominant, dominant in
- 1:29:03Speaker 1: terms of anything. You know. I would like to see
- 1:29:09Speaker 1: Americans be the majority of people in America. But then
- 1:29:15Speaker 1: I think anybody should be able to become an American.
- 1:29:20Speaker 1: All right, guys, that is the news and commentary on
- 1:29:24Speaker 1: the news for this Thursday, December fourth, And now is
- 1:29:31Speaker 1: the point where we shift to your super chats. We
- 1:29:34Speaker 1: have a few, we could still use more. And the
- 1:29:36Speaker 1: more super chats, the more I get to talk about
- 1:29:39Speaker 1: things you want to talk about. I mean, I'm not
- 1:29:42Speaker 1: gonna respond to FED anymore, so FED can come in. Yeah,
- 1:29:49Speaker 1: Israel is a Jewish enclave because Jews are being I'll
- 1:29:53Speaker 1: respond to this, and then I'm stuck. Jews are being
- 1:29:56Speaker 1: run down, they're being hunted, they're being killed, being discriminated
- 1:30:00Speaker 1: against all over the world, and Israel there needs to
- 1:30:03Speaker 1: be a Jewish enclave for them to escape to. And
- 1:30:07Speaker 1: that's that Israel serves that purpose. Whites are not in
- 1:30:10Speaker 1: that situation and therefore they don't need an enclave. And
- 1:30:13Speaker 1: if they did, need an enclave. Then America is probably
- 1:30:16Speaker 1: not the right place for them anyway, because they're almost
- 1:30:18Speaker 1: a minority already in America. So they, you know, they
- 1:30:21Speaker 1: should emigrate to places that maybe are more likely to
- 1:30:24Speaker 1: stay quote white, I don't know, you all go to
- 1:30:27Speaker 1: Denmark or you know whatever. You know, The reality is
- 1:30:36Speaker 1: America is not Israel. I know that's hard for people
- 1:30:39Speaker 1: to get. America is not surrounded by countries they want
- 1:30:43Speaker 1: to destroy it. You know, America is not occupied by
- 1:30:49Speaker 1: by by a majority people who are discriminated against everywhere
- 1:30:53Speaker 1: else in the world they go to. America is not Israel.
- 1:30:56Speaker 1: I mean, it's hard to contemplate that, and you don't.
- 1:30:59Speaker 1: Not every country is the same, and every country is different,
- 1:31:03Speaker 1: and that's okay for every country to be different. In
- 1:31:10Speaker 1: an ideal world, it wouldn't matter what your skin color is,
- 1:31:13Speaker 1: wouldn't matter what your so called racist, and it wouldn't
- 1:31:15Speaker 1: matter what your religion is. I mean, one could hope
- 1:31:19Speaker 1: that there would be very few religions anyway. All right,
- 1:31:25Speaker 1: we are going to take super chats. Let me remind

- 1:32:42Speaker 1: you on I work in video games. You often criticize
- 1:32:45Speaker 1: people who play games in their mother's basement, But do
- 1:32:49Speaker 1: you think the medium can have real autistic value in
- 1:32:53Speaker 1: reevaluating games as a long term I'm reevaluating games as
- 1:32:57Speaker 1: a longtime productive career. Oh no, look, I am not
- 1:33:01Speaker 1: anti computer games. Even if computer games do not have
- 1:33:06Speaker 1: a a what did you call it? A real autistic value,
- 1:33:11Speaker 1: they have immense entertainment value. They're a lot of fun. Now.
- 1:33:15Speaker 1: I don't play video games, but I love that people
- 1:33:18Speaker 1: have video games and can play video games and get
- 1:33:20Speaker 1: excited about video games and compete on video games. Video
- 1:33:23Speaker 1: games are great. What I criticize is the people who
- 1:33:29Speaker 1: make video games the center of their life and give
- 1:33:34Speaker 1: up on the rest of life in order to play
- 1:33:36Speaker 1: video games. That's what I hate. So, yeah, video games
- 1:33:50Speaker 1: are great. There's nothing wrong with them. Could they have
- 1:33:55Speaker 1: autistic value maybe? I mean, I don't know, but potentially
- 1:34:00Speaker 1: they could. Absolutely, But in any case, the fund their entertainment,
- 1:34:06Speaker 1: so why not engage in it. Yeah. You know, if
- 1:34:13Speaker 1: you like video games then you enjoy playing them and
- 1:34:16Speaker 1: it's fun to program them, then go ahead and program them.
- 1:34:20Speaker 1: Go ahead and program them. By the way, alex Media,
- 1:34:23Speaker 1: if you're looking for a software engineer, my my son
- 1:34:27Speaker 1: is looking for a job, so let me know. You
- 1:34:34Speaker 1: can write to me if if if you have any
- 1:34:36Speaker 1: opportunities for him at your at yourn bookshow dot com.
- 1:34:39Speaker 1: Anybody out there, uh for a I guess a junior
- 1:34:42Speaker 1: software engineer, but without with quite a bit of experience
- 1:34:45Speaker 1: now worked at Amazon for a while. Uh not you
- 1:34:49Speaker 1: have any algorithm? Part one is fascism just socialism with
- 1:34:53Speaker 1: the worst brand. Are the concept of racial higherarchys or
- 1:34:57Speaker 1: higher keys in general, less appealing than a egalitarianism to
- 1:35:01Speaker 1: population saturated with Christianity and altruism. Altruism demands a zero
- 1:35:07Speaker 1: class societal structure, while Nazism and fascism demand altruistic sacrifice.
- 1:35:13Speaker 1: The essence of the structure they're trying to impose is
- 1:35:17Speaker 1: opposite of the meeksilli inherit doth so I think you
- 1:35:20Speaker 1: onto something. Now, remember both demand altruistic sacrifice. Christianity I
- 1:35:27Speaker 1: mean sorry, Communism demands the sacrifice of the able to
- 1:35:33Speaker 1: the unable. It demands the sacrifice of ability to need.
- 1:35:38Speaker 1: It demands the sacrifice of success failure. It demands the
- 1:35:43Speaker 1: sacrifice of the rich to the poor. So both communism
- 1:35:48Speaker 1: and Nazism demand sacrifice. But one of the reasons communism
- 1:35:53Speaker 1: is so appealing it's because it's the same kind of
- 1:35:57Speaker 1: sacrifice that Christianity demands. It's the mixill inherit the earth.
- 1:36:02Speaker 1: As you say, it's hard of a rich man to
- 1:36:06Speaker 1: you know, to pass through. It's hard if a camera
- 1:36:09Speaker 1: to pastor I of needle than a rich man to
- 1:36:11Speaker 1: get into heaven. It's the same kind of sacrifice as Christianity.
- 1:36:17Speaker 1: So communism goes together and socialism go together with Christianity.
- 1:36:22Speaker 1: Was the kind of sacrifice that Nazism demands is different.
- 1:36:27Speaker 1: It's still sacrifice, and in that sense it's still Christian,
- 1:36:32Speaker 1: but it's a different kind of sacrifice, more oriented around
- 1:36:36Speaker 1: other types of hierarchy, hiarchy related to uh for example,
- 1:36:42Speaker 1: related to race in some forms of fascism, or related
- 1:36:47Speaker 1: to affinity to a state. Sacrifice to the state again
- 1:36:50Speaker 1: very similar to the sacrifice of a Christian to the
- 1:36:54Speaker 1: Church or to God. The state just fills in for
- 1:36:58Speaker 1: the church in God. But it's it's not egalitarian, and
- 1:37:05Speaker 1: there's definitely a strong appeal of eganitarianism in a Christian culture,
- 1:37:10Speaker 1: and we live in way too much of a Christian culture.
- 1:37:21Speaker 1: Robert Positive shows for the win, ordinary decent people working hard,
- 1:37:28Speaker 1: living well, learning, creating, producing isn't news, but it's ninety
- 1:37:32Speaker 1: seven percent of everything that happens in the world every
- 1:37:36Speaker 1: day thanks to the Positive Show. Of course, Fetz says,
- 1:37:48Speaker 1: I don't care about Christian's part. But yes, America was
- 1:37:52Speaker 1: vastly majority white before nineteen sixty five. Yeah, and a
- 1:37:55Speaker 1: much worse place to live. It's so much richer today
- 1:38:00Speaker 1: to Loge extent because of all the immigrants that have
- 1:38:02Speaker 1: come in. As I described earlier, most of wealth created
- 1:38:05Speaker 1: is being created by immigrants who've come to this country
- 1:38:08Speaker 1: and made your life as a white person better richer. Yeah. Right.
- 1:38:23Speaker 1: I think the whole replacement, the whole replacement stuff replacement
- 1:38:27Speaker 1: that people talk about, it's just science fiction. Immigrants don't
- 1:38:31Speaker 1: come because you know, they're encouraged to replace whites. They
- 1:38:35Speaker 1: come because they see opportunities. Indians who migrated to this country,
- 1:38:41Speaker 1: you want to luck out of this country, Fred, That's
- 1:38:44Speaker 1: what you said. Did not come here because somebody advocated
- 1:38:48Speaker 1: for them to come and to replace whites. They came
- 1:38:49Speaker 1: here because they saw opportunities, and they came in and
- 1:38:52Speaker 1: they created wealth that you benefit from. That everybody benefits from,
- 1:38:55Speaker 1: no matter what just skin color you benefit from the
- 1:39:01Speaker 1: United States peaked at around nineteen sixty five. I wish
- 1:39:04Speaker 1: you had a time machine it could go back to
- 1:39:06Speaker 1: nineteen sixty five. I was alive in nineteen sixty five.
- 1:39:09Speaker 1: You want. You have no concept of how much better
- 1:39:14Speaker 1: life is today than nineteen sixty five. You've bought into
- 1:39:17Speaker 1: you've been brainwashed by a bunch of ignorant neanderthal traditionalists
- 1:39:28Speaker 1: who worship the past, but have no concept, no concept
- 1:39:35Speaker 1: of how much better life is today because they don't
- 1:39:39Speaker 1: like certain things, like their colored people in the streets.
- 1:39:44Speaker 1: But in terms of every objective measure, every objective measure
- 1:39:49Speaker 1: of wealth, of success, of quality of life, of stand
- 1:39:53Speaker 1: of living, of diversity of options, of ability to succeed
- 1:39:59Speaker 1: in life, life is so much better today than it
- 1:40:01Speaker 1: was in nineteen sixty five. There are a few realms
- 1:40:05Speaker 1: in which it was, but the realms that affect the
- 1:40:08Speaker 1: day to day lives of Americans, in all of those realms,
- 1:40:11Speaker 1: life is better today than it was in nineteen sixty five, Catherine,
- 1:40:17Speaker 1: And that has been a theme of this show and
- 1:40:20Speaker 1: today earlier, and it's been a theme of many of
- 1:40:22Speaker 1: my shows. Yeah, Catherine, why do you hear often that
- 1:40:29Speaker 1: Iinrand is only for students and younger people? Is it
- 1:40:32Speaker 1: because she tried to make things understandable? Partially? But I
- 1:40:36Speaker 1: think more than that, because she presented an ideal. She
- 1:40:42Speaker 1: thought the world was black and white, black and white,
- 1:40:45Speaker 1: and so it's a good and evil not in so
- 1:40:47Speaker 1: it's a skin color. She thought there were good guys
- 1:40:50Speaker 1: and bad guys. She thought there was truth, and that
- 1:40:56Speaker 1: is viewed as simplistic and juvenile and appeals to add
- 1:41:01Speaker 1: the lessons and doesn't appeal to really sophisticated people. Really
- 1:41:07Speaker 1: sophisticated people understand that life is gray and there's no
- 1:41:11Speaker 1: right or wrong, and everything everything is to be. You know,
- 1:41:16Speaker 1: nobody's really good and nobody's really evil, and you can't
- 1:41:21Speaker 1: never know the truth. And that's why it's ideals, like
- 1:41:27Speaker 1: capitalism is an ideal. I mean, that is so far
- 1:41:31Speaker 1: into the way people think. Lincoln for comparison on quality
- 1:41:37Speaker 1: of life, my grandpa bought my dad his first computer
- 1:41:41Speaker 1: for eighteen hundred dollars almost six thousand dollars inflation adjusted
- 1:41:47Speaker 1: for sixty four killerbytes of RAM. I paid around four
- 1:41:51Speaker 1: hundred dollars for lapped Up recently that had sixty four
- 1:41:55Speaker 1: gigabytes of RAM on Black Friday. Same story with video games,
- 1:42:01Speaker 1: Dad paid one hundred dollars in twenty twenty five dollars,
- 1:42:06Speaker 1: so for for low quality sixteen bit games, you know
- 1:42:13Speaker 1: I paid, I pay half for for that four K,
- 1:42:19Speaker 1: for that four K graphics, sixteen bit video games, I
- 1:42:25Speaker 1: pay half for the four K graphics. Same with television software,
- 1:42:28Speaker 1: and list goes on and run. Yeah, I mean, all
- 1:42:29Speaker 1: of those goods a ninety nine percent cheaper today, ninety
- 1:42:32Speaker 1: nine point nine percent cheaper today if you take into
- 1:42:35Speaker 1: quant if you take into kant quality. My first computer
- 1:42:39Speaker 1: was an SC thirty Mac. It was three thousand dollars.
- 1:42:44Speaker 1: It was a box with a little color screen in it.
- 1:42:49Speaker 1: It had I don't catter, it had, you know, megabytes.
- 1:42:53Speaker 1: Everything was megabytes. It hard drivers megabytes. I mean, you
- 1:42:58Speaker 1: can't even compare it to what what you have today. No,
- 1:43:01Speaker 1: it's kilobytes. Everything was kilobites. There's three thousand dollars, and
- 1:43:05Speaker 1: what I could write for three thousand dollars today is
- 1:43:08Speaker 1: much much better than any super cue computer that existed
- 1:43:11Speaker 1: when I bought my first computer Lincoln. Also, it was
- 1:43:18Speaker 1: really striking visiting my dad's childhood home. He said, it's
- 1:43:21Speaker 1: much smaller and worse than he remembers, since our house
- 1:43:24Speaker 1: now is triple the size. Yeah. Yeah, nineteen sixty five,
- 1:43:29Speaker 1: you should all go to nineteen sixty five. God, the ignorance.
- 1:43:34Speaker 1: But this is the thing. If you listen to Matt Walsh,
- 1:43:38Speaker 1: if you listen to these guys, they constantly tell you
- 1:43:41Speaker 1: the lie. They constantly create this mythology and it you know,
- 1:43:53Speaker 1: they constantly create a mythology and you know, but but
- 1:44:00Speaker 1: this is the mythology Matt Walsh creates, and you buy
- 1:44:03Speaker 1: into it. Whether he's a tool or not, you buy
- 1:44:04Speaker 1: into it. It's the Matt Walsh Is and Nick foyantis
- 1:44:08Speaker 1: Is of the world. It's the Tucker Causon's of the world.
- 1:44:12Speaker 1: All really from a from a you know, just a
- 1:44:16Speaker 1: just a factual basis, and am buiga bat basis. Basically morons,
- 1:44:23Speaker 1: and they know nothing, they understand nothing. They're anti American,
- 1:44:28Speaker 1: every single one of them. They have no concept of
- 1:44:30Speaker 1: what America is, what America stood for, what the founders
- 1:44:33Speaker 1: actually said, and what they stood for, what they what
- 1:44:36Speaker 1: they boards meant. They want some in nineteen sixty five
- 1:44:42Speaker 1: utopia that never existed, Lincoln. Lincoln says, nineteen sixty five
- 1:44:54Speaker 1: is too modern for Michael Knowles. He wants ninety sixty five.
- 1:44:58Speaker 1: No want he won a twelve to twenty three hundred
- 1:45:01Speaker 1: years you know, two undred fifty years later, don't exaggerate
- 1:45:06Speaker 1: christoph Aside from material wealth, isn't the case that government
- 1:45:10Speaker 1: regulations and taxes are worse today and people feel trapped?
- 1:45:14Speaker 1: I think I think government regulations are worse and taxes
- 1:45:17Speaker 1: are worse. Taxes, I'm not sure. The marginal tax right
- 1:45:20Speaker 1: in nineteen sixty five was much higher, right, marginal the
- 1:45:25Speaker 1: high marginal tax rates were much higher. Yeah, I mean,
- 1:45:27Speaker 1: there are many ways in which nineteen sixty five was better,
- 1:45:31Speaker 1: but they're not the ways in which people are complaining.
- 1:45:33Speaker 1: If people are complaining about I want to start a business,
- 1:45:37Speaker 1: and in nineteen sixty five was easier for me to
- 1:45:39Speaker 1: start a business, and today I'd say, yeah, absolutely, Yeah,
- 1:45:42Speaker 1: let's fix that. If they were saying, you know, I was,
- 1:45:45Speaker 1: taxes was significantly lower, they were two high and sixty
- 1:45:48Speaker 1: five they're too higher today. Yeah, I'm all for that absolutely.
- 1:45:54Speaker 1: You know, if they were if they were saying, what
- 1:45:56Speaker 1: we want is more economic freedom, and it's not clear
- 1:45:59Speaker 1: by some mentions there's more economic freedom now by some dimensions,
- 1:46:02Speaker 1: there was no economic freedom of sixty five. Its it's
- 1:46:07Speaker 1: tricky how to measure that. Right nineteen sixty five, the
- 1:46:11Speaker 1: government regulated the price of IF airline tickets if you
- 1:46:15Speaker 1: wanted to fly from I don't know, from Miami to
- 1:46:18Speaker 1: New York, you paid a price determined by the government,
- 1:46:22Speaker 1: and it was a very high price, much higher than today.
- 1:46:26Speaker 1: If you wanted to trade stocks, the commission your boke
- 1:46:29Speaker 1: a god was dictated by the government. In nineteen sixty five,
- 1:46:33Speaker 1: trucking was completely regulated. Every aspect of transportation was completely
- 1:46:37Speaker 1: regulated by the government. So in many respects were less
- 1:46:41Speaker 1: regulated and then nineteen sixty five. So it's tricky to
- 1:46:44Speaker 1: figure this out. Even in those realms, what was better
- 1:46:50Speaker 1: today or them clock As pessimistic as we all tend
- 1:46:55Speaker 1: to be, I do see objectives and growing online. I
- 1:46:58Speaker 1: think it'd be a real player in the next few decades.
- 1:47:01Speaker 1: I think it will be I hope. So it's going,
- 1:47:04Speaker 1: there's no question, And the number of intellectuals is going.
- 1:47:07Speaker 1: And that's what makes a difference. That's what makes a difference.
- 1:47:14Speaker 1: Why does how he been swaying a think faster than light?
- 1:47:18Speaker 1: Thinks faster than light? Sharing of information is possible. Does
- 1:47:22Speaker 1: objectivism have objections to the theory of relativity? No, The
- 1:47:26Speaker 1: fact that how he thinks that is not a position
- 1:47:29Speaker 1: shed by objectivism, and it's not a philosophical position. His
- 1:47:33Speaker 1: position is a scientific one. He has his reasons. I
- 1:47:38Speaker 1: have no idea what they are, but it's not a
- 1:47:41Speaker 1: position and objectivism. Objectivism is the philosophy of iron Man.
- 1:47:44Speaker 1: Iron Man had no position on the theory of relativity.
- 1:47:48Speaker 1: Objectivism has no opinion on the theory of relativity. That's
- 1:47:52Speaker 1: not a question of philosophy, it's a question of science.
- 1:47:56Speaker 1: Objective scientists might have an opinion, and I disagree. Cook
- 1:48:04Speaker 1: ll be card seen Deep Space nine, highly recommended. I
- 1:48:09Speaker 1: am a cook guy. I really love the first, the
- 1:48:14Speaker 1: initial Star Trek, but that's partially because I haven't seen
- 1:48:16Speaker 1: a lot of the latest Star Treks. Also, I did
- 1:48:21Speaker 1: not see Deep Space nine, although it's come highly recommended
- 1:48:24Speaker 1: by people. I careful people. I respect their opinions, but
- 1:48:27Speaker 1: I haven't seen it. I need to get into it
- 1:48:30Speaker 1: at some point. Lincoln, we live much better life than
- 1:48:35Speaker 1: that of George Washington, one of the richest men in
- 1:48:38Speaker 1: the colonies, but lots of his teeth, lost all of
- 1:48:41Speaker 1: his teeth at thirty and died at sixty seven. Absolutely
- 1:48:47Speaker 1: Lincoln collapsing White birth rate. My dude, Japan is literally
- 1:48:52Speaker 1: starting fertility visas and you can buy abandoned homes under
- 1:48:56Speaker 1: ten k there. Yep, Rafael Ayran, the corporate presentation went well.
- 1:49:04Speaker 1: Thanks for your advice. I'm glad it went well. Also
- 1:49:07Speaker 1: noticed it's my three anniversary as a YBS member. Cheers
- 1:49:11Speaker 1: to that. Absolutely, cheers Rafael. Thank you Lincoln. I'm suddenly
- 1:49:19Speaker 1: planning on having kids with my corent girlfriend and future wife,
- 1:49:23Speaker 1: but not until we're both done with our education in
- 1:49:26Speaker 1: our thirties. Yeah, good for you, John says AIRI YouTube
- 1:49:33Speaker 1: ice raids versus rule of law. Good good. I agree
- 1:49:37Speaker 1: with that. I'm glad they did a video of that.
- 1:49:42Speaker 1: Jason one. Washington State is not friendly to vouchers or
- 1:49:47Speaker 1: charter schools. Al Moses Lake School District is on its
- 1:49:52Speaker 1: fourth day of being closed due to a strike. The
- 1:49:57Speaker 1: district lost money in an accounting anomaly, levies didn't pass,
- 1:50:02Speaker 1: and teachers say they want what they used to have
- 1:50:06Speaker 1: and a cola. The district will go to courts to
- 1:50:11Speaker 1: push teachers back to work. I'd love to stand with
- 1:50:15Speaker 1: the signs saying privatize Redine Ran, but i'd be but
- 1:50:20Speaker 1: it'd be pointless. Well, you never know. If it'd be pointless,
- 1:50:23Speaker 1: people might actually Redine Ran because of it. They might say,
- 1:50:26Speaker 1: who is this crazy? What's he doing? Maybe there's something
- 1:50:29Speaker 1: maybe I should go find out. Is there any reasonable
- 1:50:33Speaker 1: way not to let this crisis go to waste for
- 1:50:37Speaker 1: capitalist cause? Any thoughts for the school district and teachers union? No,
- 1:50:42Speaker 1: I mean not really. I don't know how you take
- 1:50:46Speaker 1: advantage of the crisis, other than to say these kind
- 1:50:48Speaker 1: of things don't happen in private education. Maybe one school's
- 1:50:52Speaker 1: teachers strike and then you just shift your teachers to
- 1:50:55Speaker 1: your students to another school. You don't get teacher strikes.
- 1:50:58Speaker 1: That if everything was so, it's an opportunity to make
- 1:51:02Speaker 1: the case of privatization, accepting the fact that only a
- 1:51:07Speaker 1: few people will even have an openingir to it. Pi
- 1:51:14Speaker 1: Gupta Fred's question, so not all his questions are free.
- 1:51:19Speaker 1: I don't know what that means. Would you tolerate a
- 1:51:21Speaker 1: non Jewish majority in Israel? I mean again, when anti
- 1:51:27Speaker 1: Semitism doesn't exist? And yes, I don't care about being Jewish.
- 1:51:31Speaker 1: I don't care about Israel being Jewish or not. The
- 1:51:35Speaker 1: only reason Israel needs to have a Jewish majority right
- 1:51:38Speaker 1: now is because there is an existential risks to people
- 1:51:42Speaker 1: who are perceived to be Jewish by the world. If
- 1:51:47Speaker 1: if there was a perceived risk physical risk programs against
- 1:51:54Speaker 1: white people, then those people, I mean, you know, those
- 1:51:58Speaker 1: people should you don't have every right to gang together
- 1:52:02Speaker 1: to protect themselves. But that's not the case. And if
- 1:52:05Speaker 1: you can't tell the difference between those two, then you're
- 1:52:08Speaker 1: just evading. You're not trying, right, You're not trying. So
- 1:52:13Speaker 1: you can you can take a simplistic say oh, it's no,
- 1:52:17Speaker 1: or you can actually think about what my answer actually
- 1:52:20Speaker 1: means and what my actually, my actual answer is. It's
- 1:52:24Speaker 1: not bullshit. There's antisemitism everywhere in the world. Jews are
- 1:52:29Speaker 1: persecuted everywhere in the world. Even in America it's becoming
- 1:52:33Speaker 1: more antisemic. Submitted. I would love a world in which
- 1:52:36Speaker 1: there's no Israel, that Israel is never created, because a
- 1:52:42Speaker 1: world wid Israel was never created is a world where
- 1:52:47Speaker 1: the Dreyfus trial never happens. It's a world where there's
- 1:52:50Speaker 1: no massive anti semitism in Europe. It's a world where
- 1:52:53Speaker 1: Hitler doesn't kill six million Jews. It's a world where
- 1:52:58Speaker 1: Jews are not persecuted in Era and in Moroacco and
- 1:53:02Speaker 1: in Yemen and in all these other countries and kicked
- 1:53:05Speaker 1: out it's a better world where Jews just assimilate into
- 1:53:09Speaker 1: the population. I'm all for that. I have no affinity
- 1:53:14Speaker 1: to a Jewish state except and this is this is
- 1:53:19Speaker 1: where people can't think. This is the amazing part is
- 1:53:22Speaker 1: they they they just can't actually hold an argument, hold
- 1:53:27Speaker 1: hold an actual argument being made, except in a world
- 1:53:34Speaker 1: in which they're persecuted. They need some way to escape
- 1:53:36Speaker 1: to have Jews ever done any persecuting? Oh suddenly in
- 1:53:43Speaker 1: the Old Testament, Yeah, a lot of persecuting. They were,
- 1:53:46Speaker 1: It was awful, but since then very little, primarily because
- 1:53:52Speaker 1: they've had no political power to do it. So again,
- 1:53:56Speaker 1: you you're it's all collectivism with you. All you can
- 1:53:59Speaker 1: think of is this group and that group and that group.
- 1:54:02Speaker 1: And I don't care. They're bad people who are Jewish.
- 1:54:06Speaker 1: They're good people who are Jewish. They're bad people who
- 1:54:08Speaker 1: are white, the good people who are white, the bad
- 1:54:09Speaker 1: people who are black, the good people who are black,
- 1:54:11Speaker 1: That bad people who are Indian, The good people are Indian.
- 1:54:18Speaker 1: Tell me about Jewish persecution, you know, the Jews persecuting
- 1:54:23Speaker 1: who who exactly what if they persecuted? And don't tell
- 1:54:27Speaker 1: me Palestinians, because that will show you know what you
- 1:54:29Speaker 1: are of the israelly Palestinian conflict. But you know, did
- 1:54:33Speaker 1: they persecute the Germans? Did Jews persecute the Germans? They
- 1:54:36Speaker 1: persecute the English? Did they persecute the Romans, the Greeks?
- 1:54:41Speaker 1: Who did they persecute the Babylonians? Who did they persecute
- 1:54:44Speaker 1: exactly as a people? Oh, they persecuted ethnic Russians. All right,
- 1:54:53Speaker 1: wipe this guy out. He is a complete nutcase. He
- 1:54:58Speaker 1: doesn't know history, he does no facts. He is just
- 1:55:04Speaker 1: another run of the mill anti Semite. During the Bolshevik Revolution,
- 1:55:11Speaker 1: Jews didn't persecute anybody. Communists persecuted people. Some of those communists,
- 1:55:18Speaker 1: a minority were Jewish. So what white people persecuted? White
- 1:55:26Speaker 1: people persecuted the majority of Russians. Ethnic Russians were persecuted
- 1:55:33Speaker 1: by white people because most of the Communists were white.
- 1:55:41Speaker 1: Oh God, so pathetic. Sypathetic again, you know, brainwashed by
- 1:55:49Speaker 1: people who don't know history, don't know history, and people
- 1:55:55Speaker 1: who don't know, you know any anything about you know,
- 1:56:01Speaker 1: their own history, about European history, about Jewish history. And
- 1:56:05Speaker 1: they come on and they pretend that like they're experts,
- 1:56:09Speaker 1: they know stuff. They because what because they watch the
- 1:56:12Speaker 1: YouTube video by some racist creep. They've watched you know,
- 1:56:16Speaker 1: a say, and there's a reason I'm engaging with Fred.
- 1:56:20Speaker 1: There's a reason because you know, if he comes back up,
- 1:56:23Speaker 1: probably just block him. Because so many people out there
- 1:56:27Speaker 1: are like this, So many people out there are convinced
- 1:56:30Speaker 1: of their own knowledge because they've watched some video by
- 1:56:34Speaker 1: some creep out there, by some white nationalists, by some
- 1:56:38Speaker 1: white supremacists. And what they do is they can't they
- 1:56:48Speaker 1: ask you question, you give them an answer. They can't
- 1:56:50Speaker 1: follow the argument either. They because they don't want to,
- 1:56:53Speaker 1: not because they're not capable of they're smart enough to
- 1:56:55Speaker 1: follow it. They don't want to. It would actually require
- 1:56:58Speaker 1: an argument, they actually require following. They don't want to
- 1:57:03Speaker 1: follow it. They don't want to follow it. I don't
- 1:57:07Speaker 1: silence opposition. I silence useless people who refuse to think,
- 1:57:17Speaker 1: who refuse to confront evidence when presented with it. I
- 1:57:20Speaker 1: silence people who just repeat the same thing over and
- 1:57:22Speaker 1: over again, who have nothing to add to the conversation,
- 1:57:25Speaker 1: and who are fundamentally disruptive as a consequence. That's who
- 1:57:29Speaker 1: I silence. I don't silence people who disagree with me.
- 1:57:32Speaker 1: Lots of people who disagree with me on here. But
- 1:57:35Speaker 1: if you're not willing to engage with evidence, if you're
- 1:57:37Speaker 1: not willing to engage with facts, if you can't follow
- 1:57:40Speaker 1: an argument because following the argument would upset your world
- 1:57:45Speaker 1: view too much, then you're useless to me. Why would
- 1:57:48Speaker 1: I not block you? You know? What did Rush Limbaugh
- 1:57:52Speaker 1: used to say about you know, about his audience and
- 1:57:56Speaker 1: taking questions? Is the only purpose of it is to
- 1:57:59Speaker 1: make him look good? Yeah? I mean I'm with Rush.
- 1:58:07Speaker 1: I made an argument, you refuse to listen to it,
- 1:58:10Speaker 1: and that's why you're being removed. All right, Lincoln. If
- 1:58:22Speaker 1: I want an SUV, foward all the way. If I
- 1:58:25Speaker 1: want a non luxury sedan, I'm going to Yoda. I
- 1:58:30Speaker 1: have a Lexus Suv. It's a wonderful automobile. So if
- 1:58:34Speaker 1: you want a big SUV maybe, but even even the
- 1:58:37Speaker 1: big Lexus Suv is pretty cool, Matt. This administration has
- 1:58:42Speaker 1: made men such as Haig Saith. Yeah, I mean they
- 1:58:46Speaker 1: took nobody and made him into something. Uh, all right,
- 1:58:53Speaker 1: that is it for today. Oh we got we got
- 1:58:56Speaker 1: a question coming in from a vlus. What did I
- 1:59:00Speaker 1: want to remind you? Yeah? I want to remind you
- 1:59:02Speaker 1: of Patreon. I want to remind you that December thirty first,
- 1:59:06Speaker 1: we will have a big fundraising event. There'll be the
- 1:59:10Speaker 1: year end Show. We'll be raising a lot of money.
- 1:59:12Speaker 1: I think the goal of this year will be twenty
- 1:59:14Speaker 1: thousand dollars on the show. So if you want, if
- 1:59:20Speaker 1: you would like to contribute like more than five hundred dollars,
- 1:59:23Speaker 1: which is the max you can do on YouTube, then
- 1:59:29Speaker 1: you can do it on PayPal and just let me
- 1:59:35Speaker 1: know that you wanted to go towards. Once you let
- 1:59:41Speaker 1: me know that you wanted to go towards the year
- 1:59:46Speaker 1: end show. Lincoln said, I had a super chat on Fuentes.
- 1:59:51Speaker 1: I didn't see it. I'm looking back. I cannot see
- 1:59:59Speaker 1: the one Fort George Washington. Oh there it is, Okay,
- 2:00:05Speaker 1: there it is. I don't know what how that I skipped?
- 2:00:08Speaker 1: I skipped down, all right? A good rule of thumb
- 2:00:12Speaker 1: for your mental health. Never listened to anyone who had
- 2:00:15Speaker 1: Nick for Intese on this show. Yes that that that
- 2:00:19Speaker 1: would be a big improvement in people's lives. Avery Lasque says,
- 2:00:25Speaker 1: how much for your thoughts? On an NBA Ethics Assignment
- 2:00:28Speaker 1: Professor reflection, I had to do read through. It'd be
- 2:00:34Speaker 1: great content, I promise. So what do you want me
- 2:00:37Speaker 1: to read? I mean, how long is whatever it is
- 2:00:40Speaker 1: you want me to read? That would determine how much,
- 2:00:44Speaker 1: you know I would charge it depended how you know
- 2:00:46Speaker 1: it's an ethics assignment. So how long is it? You
- 2:00:50Speaker 1: know it's going to take me five minutes to read,
- 2:00:52Speaker 1: ten minutes to read. Let me know and I'll tell
- 2:00:56Speaker 1: you how much. All right, guys, I will see you tomorrow.
- 2:01:00Speaker 1: Don't forget the December thirty first show, two and a
- 2:01:03Speaker 1: half pages. I don't know one hundred bucks for me
- 2:01:06Speaker 1: to give you my feedback on that. It's like a song.
- 2:01:09Speaker 1: I guess. I will see you guys tomorrow. I guess
- 2:01:13Speaker 1: same time. Matt says. Coleman Hughes had a great video
- 2:01:16Speaker 1: on a fantasy she did. It was a very good
- 2:01:19Speaker 1: It was a very good Coleman Hughes does good stuff.
- 2:01:21Speaker 1: I like Coleman Hughes. He's one of the best commentators, podcasters,
- 2:01:26Speaker 1: whatever you want to call them out there, young intellectuals
- 2:01:29Speaker 1: out there. He's one of the best non objectives young
- 2:01:33Speaker 1: intellectuals out there. So check out Coleman Hughes. He's very good.
- 2:01:40Speaker 1: Thank you. Matt all right, guys see tomorrow. Bye.
