• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Trump accounts?

  Speaker 1: Is that awesome or what?
• 0:06
  Speaker 3: Well, let's ask our Americ and mama's Alma mama, she.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: Said, and joining us now, our American mama is Terry
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: Needville and Kimberly Burlison.
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: So Michael Dell and his wife Susan decided to donate
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: six point two five billion dollars to put into Trump accounts,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: which didn't exist before. Donald Trump has created this platform
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: where the government can put money into savings accounts for
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: young children. But the Dells have decided to add six
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: point two five billion dollars of their own money to
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: this and expand it to any child under the age
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: of ten. They're saying as many as twenty five million
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: kids could receive two hundred and fifty dollars into a
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: savings account in there.
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: Name incredible. I think this is so incredible. This is
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: much larger than I think people are even given this
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: this credit for. I believe now that they're going to
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: do this, I feel like, now, let's add business education
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: to every elementary in the school. Let's start teaching the children,
• 1:20
  Speaker 4: what to do with money, how to invest money. One
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: of the biggest highlights of my entire life with starting
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: a business program being part of that for my children's school.
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: Her school. Her children's school did it as well. These children,
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: I'm talking kindergarten, you can start as young as kindergarten
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: through sixth grade. They absorbed everything to do with business
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: and they loved it. We made them write business plans,
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: We made them go to bankers, which I would be
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: a banker, some other people to be bankers. They would
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: come and they would propose their business to us. At
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: the end of the year they would have we'd have
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: a huge workshop where they all share their businesses with
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: the public. Kids are so ready for this. We need
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: this because this is the future and we need these
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: kids zoned in and knowing understanding business.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: You know, I was actually a little bit of a
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: nerd in school.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: I don't know, if you get no way. So when
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: I was attending school in sixth grade, I started a
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: business in the school.
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: I sold hot chocolate at lunch to.
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: Other kids in the school.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I thought I was going to keep that
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: money for myself. And at the end of the year,
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: my mom made me donate the money back to Oh.
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, I remember one of the boys in
• 2:31
  Speaker 5: my class, fifth grade, sixth grade. They used to I
• 2:33
  Speaker 5: don't know if y'all remember these toothpicks. They were sent
• 2:35
  Speaker 5: them in toothpists, remember those? And he would, I guess,
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: go buy the cinnamon toothpicks and then sell one for
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: a quarter to each of us.
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I remember that.
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: But it is there's and I feel like there's this
• 2:47
  Speaker 5: renewed purpose to teach children about capitalism. Yeah, and because
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: there's been such a just a downpour of socialism, you know,
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: taught especially on the left, And so I think this
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: might be just the brainchild of something very special that
• 3:04
  Speaker 5: can happen. And this will only make other billionaires millionaires
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: billionaires right start thinking, well, wait a minute, I want
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: to contribute to this kind of Yeah, what can I
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: do to leave a legacy for the children of a marriage?
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: I love that.
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: Have you been reading some of the comments though, I
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: am so frustrated. I know I'm not trying to take
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: it negative, but I have to. It's amazing when you
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: have people like this that are donating this kind of
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: money and they're really doing something to make our country better.
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: The number of people that try to tear it down.
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: I just can't even believe the pundits, the people that
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: come out and immediately immediately start saying, well, what about
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: the single mom that's, you know, barely making ends meet.
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: Because you can match every family can match up to
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: five thousand dollars in this account every year, and it
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: then starts compounding, right, And yet people are immediately talking
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: about who's going to come up with five thousand dollars.
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: It's like, this is part of it. It's part of it.
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: This is a family thing that you can learn together,
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: donate together, figure it out together. Stop waiting for everybody
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: to give you stuff for nothing.
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: Is it Michael Dell's job to give your kid anything?
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: Exactly?
• 4:17
  Speaker 5: Think that they would be responding like this had it
• 4:20
  Speaker 5: been something that happened under President Biden.
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: Oh no, if this had been.
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: A Democrat president and these people, these billionaires were Democrats,
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: Democrat donors that said we want to do this. The media,
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: the left, yeah, they would be on the cover of
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: you know, a couple of the year magazine.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: Well, and the other thing that I think people they
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: have this mindset to where they get to criticize someone's
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: charity right, Yes, Michael, this is not the government doing
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: this exactly.
• 4:49
  Speaker 6: This is an individual and two individuals, Michael and Susan,
• 4:53
  Speaker 6: and they both said, this is how we want to give.
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: That's what That's part of what makes charity so powerful.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: Government programs, it's all about political about how the money
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: spent charity, it's what does my heart say I'm supposed
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: to do with this.
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: Money, right exactly? And that it made me think about
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: when Dolly Parton she has that program where she gets
• 5:13
  Speaker 4: gives a book to every single child program and people
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: were like, what am I going to do with one book?
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: I mean, so what she's given us one book? And
• 5:21
  Speaker 4: I'm like, yeah, it's one. But she's giving you a
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: book for your child.
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: She doesn't know you with you That's why I just
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: that entitlement. Yes, that has it seems to be more
• 5:33
  Speaker 5: prevalent today. Ungratefulness it is. We have got to get
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: back disgotiating and being so grateful for those that have
• 5:42
