• 2:55
  Speaker 3: Starting us off this morning. Though the debt it's kind
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: of like what they say about the webb. Everyone talks
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: about it, but no one wants to do anything about it. Well,
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: what organization definitely has it on their radar and they
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: are called the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget. The
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: president of the group is Maya McGinnis and she joins
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: us now, Maya, good morning and welcome to the show.
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: Good morning, it's so nice to be with you.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: Thank you for being here. First of all, tell me
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: about the group. How was it founded, who's in it
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: and what is the mission statement of your organization?
• 3:25
  Speaker 5: Great, So, it was founded decades ago. I'm only the
• 3:29
  Speaker 5: second person who's run it. I've been for twenty years.
• 3:33
  Speaker 5: But it came out of a number of members of
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: Congress in the eighties early eighties who left frustrated that
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: they and their colleagues couldn't really act responsibly on the budget.
• 3:41
  Speaker 5: And I will tell you they were doing a lot
• 3:43
  Speaker 5: better than in most ways than we are now. What's
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: unique about it one critically important. We are so bipartisan.
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: I am a political independent. This is not about politics.
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: We have people of every stripe on our staff, on
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: our board, and the board is people who've actually been
• 3:59
  Speaker 5: in government running the treasury or the FED, or the
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: budget Committees or OMB or CBO, or a Office of
• 4:07
  Speaker 5: Management and Budget in the Congressional Budget Office. But they
• 4:09
  Speaker 5: have been into trenches. They know how hard this work is.
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: So we try to work with lawmakers in a realistic
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: way to help them. This is a mission improve the
• 4:18
  Speaker 5: fifth goal responsibility of this country and what that means.
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: It's not that you have to balance the budget every year,
• 4:24
  Speaker 5: but right now we are borrowing for almost everything. We
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: do not for economic reasons, because sometimes it's okay to borrow,
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: like during COVID or a recession. We are borring for
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: political reasons because our politicians just aren't willing to do
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: the hard work of budgeting, and that has huge dangerous
• 4:42
  Speaker 5: ramifications for our country, our long term economic health, and frankly,
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: our national security.
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: We're talking to Miyam again. I said, the subject is
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: the federal debt this morning, and I thought it was
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: interesting for you to start off the segment. I was
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: going to get into this a little bit later on.
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: I appreciate you bringing it up about how this is
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: a nonpartisan organization and and I would agree you're the expert,
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: not me, but I would agree in theory with what
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: you said that a part of the reason we're in
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: the shape we're in now is because everybody wants to
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: get a victory. You know, they all have, the Republicans
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: and Democrats. I mean, they're all pointing fingers. It's his fault,
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: it's her fault. Whatever. In the end, though, it comes
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: out on the taxpayers. And explain to our listeners this morning,
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: they hear all this talk about the debt, why should
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: they care about this maya?
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: And that is really the big challenge of this issue,
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: because people are struggling with the fact that healthcare is
• 5:31
  Speaker 5: not affordable, saving for retirement, putting their kids through college,
• 5:34
  Speaker 5: job in security, so many things going on. And you
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: don't see the direct effects of the national debt. But
• 5:41
  Speaker 5: what it does is it flows our economic growth. So
• 5:45
  Speaker 5: the point is today we are all making less than
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: we would have if we hadn't borrowed for so many
• 5:52
  Speaker 5: frankly dumb things in the past. It brings our standard
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: of living down. It also means that our interest payments
• 5:58
  Speaker 5: are the fastest growing part of the budget. It right now,
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: we spend more on interest than we do on the
• 6:03
  Speaker 5: national defense as of this year, and we spend more
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: on interest than we do on all federal spending for children,
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: so it crowds out other things we might do, whether
• 6:12
  Speaker 5: those are tax cuts for conservatives or spending increases for
• 6:15
  Speaker 5: progressives or both. The interest is squeezing out other things.
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: But it also means we're unable to respond to future
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: emergencies in a way we might be able to want
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: to be able to. And we no longer have flexibility
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: in our budgets. So if we needed to put in place,
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: say worker retraining because things are changing, because technology is
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: changing the economy, we don't have the resources available we
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: would have if we hadn't been borrowing in the past,
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: and that will only become a bigger squeeze if we
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: stay on this unsustainable path while we're borrowing like two
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: trillion dollars every year for the foreseeable future future, that
• 6:51
  Speaker 5: will just make things even worse. But I know it's hard.
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: You don't sit down at your kitchen table and worry
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: about it. I do. But that's why my kids didn't
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: like having sitting at the kitchen table with kit told.
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: But it is a real issue that affects everything else
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: that we care about.
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: We're talking about him again, this again with the organization
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: and Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget. I do want
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: to remind you the Dave v Allen Show on five
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: to eighty Live brought to you in part by Pinnacle Consultants.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: There Lead pain Inspection and Risk Assessment services are designed
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: to identify and to assess the presence of lead based
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: paints and buildings and other structures using a three phase
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: approach of inspection, sampling, the lab, analysis, and an assessment
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: reports Apinnacle Court dot net. Because what you don't know
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: can hurt you, you use the word sustainability or maybe
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: a lack of sustainability moving forward, get into that a
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: little bit more, and you talked about your kids, talk
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: about what this is going to mean for future generations
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: if we don't do something.
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: Absolutely so, our fiscal situation is not sustainable because our
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: debt is growing faster than our economy. If our economy
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: were growing faster, we would be okay, we might have
• 7:56
  Speaker 5: too much debt, but we would be on a trajectory
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: where things were going to get better. We are on
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: a trajectory where things are going to get worse. And frankly,
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: our political environment is such that it's likely to be
• 8:06
  Speaker 5: even worse than the numbers from the Congressional Budget Office
• 8:08
  Speaker 5: show us this means for our kids, you know, a
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: smaller economy than it would otherwise have been a lot
• 8:16
  Speaker 5: of the more dramatic things I think, and this isn't
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: as exaggerating, is we are gradually threatening our role in
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: the world. We may not be the economic superpower, we
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: may not have as much leverage as we have been
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: used to, and the debt will be underlying that. But basically,
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: we are handing our kids a budget where they have
• 8:33
  Speaker 5: so much to pay an interest, and so many promises.
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: They won't have the flexibility to deal with their own challenges.
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: And it's quite clear that younger generations are inheriting a
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: very complicated world. Whether it's natural disasters or terrorism, or
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: hot spots around the world or changes from technology, there's
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: going to be a lot to navigate and they need
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: to have a budget that allows them to respond nimbly.
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: But frankly, they will not have that. Sometimes I say,
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: it's just the same as if we turned to our
• 9:04
  Speaker 5: kids and said give me one hundred bucks. I want
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: to spend money right now, but I don't want to
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: pay for it, so you're going to have to it. Really, obviously,
• 9:11
  Speaker 5: it's more complicated than that, but it is shifting who's
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: going to pay for the things we are buying today
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: onto our kids instead of ourselves. And that's kind of
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: the opposite of what the American dream is supposed to be,
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: or relieve a stronger world and country and economy to
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: the next generation than the one we inherit it currently.
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: If we keep on this based on what you said
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: and then some of the reading I've done, if we
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: keep on this path that we're on now, we're certainly
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: not going to be doing what we're supposed to do
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: for future generations. So here's the multimillion dollar maybe i'll
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: say trillion dollar question for you, miya. How do we
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: fix this?
• 9:45
  Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah, we only deal with trillions here. I remember
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: when it went from billions to trillions, and that was
• 9:51
  Speaker 5: a bit of a shocker. Listen, these are the things
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: politicians promise they won't do, but they're the things we
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: have to do if we're going to get this under control.
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: We are going to have to raise taxes. Obviously no
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: one wants that, but we're going to have to, and
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: not just millionaires and billionaires, We're going to have to
• 10:08
  Speaker 5: raise real revenue. And we are going to have to
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: reduce spending. We are spending is at a very high
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: level right now, much higher than it's been historically. It
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: is going to continue to grow, and Congress is routinely
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: appropriating high increases in our spending, and it has automatic
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: programs that it's not checking and they are growing faster
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: than the economy. Finally, we have to make changes to
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: soci security and medicare. I know these are the opposite
• 10:36
  Speaker 5: of the things that our political candidates are promising us,
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: but they're pandering. They're telling us what they think they
• 10:43
  Speaker 5: need to say to win an election, not to guide
• 10:45
  Speaker 5: the country. But if we don't fix social security, where
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: the trust funds will run out of resources in less
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: than a decade, there will be automatic benefit cuts for
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: every single current retiree. That's unconscionable. There are many things
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: we can do today to make these changes gradually and
• 11:03
  Speaker 5: in a shared way where people who depend on the
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: program aren't affected at all. But by doing nothing, we
• 11:08
  Speaker 5: are harming the people who depend on the program to
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: the most. So honestly, it's the opposite of a political slogan.
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: We need more revenues, we need slower spending so that
• 11:17
  Speaker 5: we're not borrowing two trillion dollars a year, and we
• 11:20
  Speaker 5: need to fix social Security and Medicare so we can
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: honor the promises that we've made instead of hitting a
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: wall where there are large, abrupt across the board benefit
• 11:29
  Speaker 5: cuts for everybody which will do real harm.
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: Well, I appreciate you being here. It's fascinating stuff. Mia
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: McGinnis is the president of the organization Committee for a
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: Responsible Federal Budget. Where can people learn more about your organization?
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: Where can they do some more reading? Give us sand
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: the info you got there.
• 11:45
  Speaker 5: Even beyond reading, you can play some games. We have
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: a lot of interactive tools also, which I think are
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: fund greatly to have a Friday night party with our
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: debt fixer or our Social Security fixer. The point being
• 11:56
  Speaker 5: there's no one way to fix any of these things,
• 11:59
  Speaker 5: so you can look at them and learn more through
• 12:01
  Speaker 5: kind of interactive tools. But see r FB dot org
• 12:07
  Speaker 5: or just Google. Committee for Responsible Federal Budget. I know
• 12:09
  Speaker 5: it's a mouthful, but again, I think the nonpartisanship of
• 12:13
  Speaker 5: what we do is really important. We're not coming at
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: it from a political agenda. We encourage people to have
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: their own choices and preferences, but we can't borrow our
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: way to prosperity or security. We're going to have to
• 12:25
  Speaker 5: ask our political leaders to make the tough choices that
• 12:28
  Speaker 5: are necessary in actually creating a budget. That's the only
• 12:32
  Speaker 5: way we're going to get the situation under control and
• 12:34
  Speaker 5: help our economy and our security and our role in
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: the world stay as strong as they possibly can, because
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: this will undermine everything if we don't make those changes.
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: Maya, I appreciate you taking time out of your schedule
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: to be here. I know you're very busy. Great stuff
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: and have a great day and we will talk you hope.
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: Maybe we'll talk again soon. I appreciate you being here.
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: Thanks a lot, it'd be great.
• 12:53
  Speaker 5: Thanks so much. Bye.
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: Maya McGinnis is the president of the group entitled the Committee,
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: the Committee for a Responsible that Are Budget and Look.
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: She said at the outset that this is a nonpartisan group.
• 13:04
  Speaker 3: She herself. I didn't ask her what her political party was,
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: but she's a registered independent. And you know, again, I
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: am not an economist by any stretch of the imagination.
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: People that know me know that numbers ain't my thing.
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: But when we've got people that both sides are just
• 13:20
  Speaker 3: looking at each other, and nobody wants to be the
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: one to back down a little bit. That's how we
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: get where we are now. And some serious changes are
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: going to have to happen. No matter who is in
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: the White House, no matter who controls Congress, Senate, whatever,
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: some serious changes are going to have to happen at
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: some point. The Dave Allen Show in five eighty Live

  Speaker 3: jute dot Com. Text says why do Republican politicians only
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: care about debt and deficit when a Democrat is president? Well,
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: you know, as I said, that was a reference to
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: my guests, Maya. She her organization is nonpartisan. She herself
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: is a registered independent. But that is uh that that's
• 14:00
  Speaker 3: kind of why we are where we are now. And
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: to the textas point is, Republicans point to democrats, Democrats
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: point to Republicans. We got to start electing people that
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: take this thing seriously. That's just my little take on it. There,
• 14:14

• 18:30
  Speaker 3: before Brian because we're still trying to locate where Brian
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: Dayton is right now. I had a text at the
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: top of the show. This said, Dave. A news article
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: that I read this morning says that vehicle taxes paid
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: in twenty twenty four can be refunded on your twenty
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: twenty five return. The twenty twenty five return is filed
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: in twenty twenty six. Is this correct a correct or
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: do they mean twenty twenty four return. So I sent
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: a text out to Larry Pack, the State Revenue Secretary,
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: and he may have heard him on Happy yesterday. He's
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: been kind of making the rounds and I sent a
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: text out to Larry Pack, and Larry Pack responded by
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: saying twenty twenty four return, which is filed early twenty
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: twenty five. So there is your answer. Rusty Webb is here, Rusty,
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: good morning, Welcome to the show.
• 19:18
  Speaker 10: Well, I'm trying to put on social media that I'm
• 19:21
  Speaker 10: going to be on at nine twenty six instead of
• 19:23
  Speaker 10: thirty three.
• 19:24
  Speaker 9: Well, you know, it takes a second.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: It's you know, it's it's a flexible thing. Sometimes things happen,
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: you know. Well, I don't know what. I don't know
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: where Brian Daton is. It's not like Brian. He listens
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: to the show every day. And I will say that
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: today is his wedding anniversary. Oh and so he texted
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: me when we were texting back and forth yesterday, he said,
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: well that count is a gift for my wife. If
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: I'm on the radio. I said, no, it will not.
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: So maybe he stopped, you know, at a dollar tree
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: or something to pick up his his wife an anniversary gift.
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: We'll try to get Brian on a little bit later
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: if he comes in, but I appreciate you being here
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: early because it's time for thunder in the mountains.
• 19:58
  Speaker 10: In the mountains, and speaking of flexibility, we just made
• 20:00
  Speaker 10: this decision thirty minutes ago, and that is we're playing
• 20:06
  Speaker 10: the entire tournament at the y m c A. Because
• 20:09
  Speaker 10: of the rain we were gonna we've already we've already
• 20:12
  Speaker 10: decided to move Friday's matches because of the rain, but
• 20:16
  Speaker 10: we're gonna move the entire tournament up there. So uh.
• 20:21
  Speaker 10: Announcement number one. Announcement number two. We changed the format
• 20:25
  Speaker 10: this year.
• 20:28
  Speaker 9: The mayor.
• 20:31
  Speaker 10: Was really interested in having local people play and so
• 20:34
  Speaker 10: we're w and Marshall coaches like, let's have a singles
• 20:38
  Speaker 10: tournament flat out, just play, just play. So we changed
• 20:42
  Speaker 10: it so it's a Women's Open Singles. UTR is the
• 20:48
  Speaker 10: kind of like the organization that's putting it together, and
• 20:51
  Speaker 10: it has cash prizes. We have a cash purse, so
• 20:55
  Speaker 10: of course the high school kids can't they can't get
• 20:59
  Speaker 10: They can they can play, but they can't get money.
• 21:02
  Speaker 10: So so we have as a result, we're kind of
• 21:08
  Speaker 10: starting small because it kind of got a late start,
• 21:12
  Speaker 10: and we have some of the best high school players
• 21:15
  Speaker 10: in New Jersey, Maryland, in West Virginia playing in this
• 21:21
  Speaker 10: tournament along with Marshall players and WVU player.
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: I was going to say when you talked about the changes,
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: I was afraid you were going to say that there
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: wouldn't be Marshall and WVU. But they are taking part.
• 21:31
  Speaker 10: They are taking part, but they're taking part not as
• 21:33
  Speaker 10: a team but as individuals. As a matter of fact,
• 21:36
  Speaker 10: if you want to see WVU practice, they'll be at
• 21:41
  Speaker 10: the why tonight I think this afternoon, late this afternoon,
• 21:44
  Speaker 10: so anyway, so that's exciting. And then we also have
• 21:52
  Speaker 10: a lady from Morgantown who won the Triple A Girls
• 21:56
  Speaker 10: tennis tournament just what six May, just a few months ago.
• 22:01
  Speaker 10: And we have Naughty a or cut who if you
• 22:05
  Speaker 10: know anything about tennis and West Virginia and particularly Charleston,
• 22:11
  Speaker 10: Naughty and Julie orcutt are are are really really cream
• 22:14
  Speaker 10: of the crop. They are. They're great players. So Naughty
• 22:17
  Speaker 10: is playing and We're going to have a back draw,
• 22:20
  Speaker 10: so if if you know, if a player loses, we're
• 22:22
  Speaker 10: going to give them a guarantee two matches. So say
• 22:27
  Speaker 10: you know, somebody loses, we're gonna let them play a
• 22:29
  Speaker 10: backdraw so they can get at least two matches. In
• 22:36
  Speaker 10: first prizes one thousand dollars, second prize is five hundred,
• 22:40
  Speaker 10: and the two semi finalists will each receive two hundred
• 22:43
  Speaker 10: and fifty dollars.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: Talk about the involvement of getting some of the tennis
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: teams involved. I mean, like as far as the different
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: height schools and whatever, and even the maybe middle school
• 22:52
  Speaker 3: and I'm down to the elementary school age. I mean,
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: talk about the involvement because this is, you know, obviously
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: a showcase of fine tennis, but I know you're looking
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: for the future. You'd like to try to get these
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: young kids to.
• 23:03
  Speaker 10: Beg beg tennis coaches, bring, bring your players and watch this.
• 23:09
  Speaker 10: Here's what we're gonna do. If you know, if you
• 23:10
  Speaker 10: know the y MC a court, you look across the
• 23:14
  Speaker 10: courts and you can't see five, you can't see four,
• 23:17
  Speaker 10: you're up in this crow's nest. What we're going to
• 23:20
  Speaker 10: do is we're gonna play the matches on courts two, three,
• 23:23
  Speaker 10: and four, so you can set chairs on court five
• 23:26
  Speaker 10: and court one and watch between you know, between those two.
• 23:31
  Speaker 10: So what I'm saying is I'm begging middle school, high school,
• 23:35
  Speaker 10: grade school, anybody who plays tennis to come and watch
• 23:38
  Speaker 10: this outstanding tennis inside, you know, out the weather. And
• 23:46
  Speaker 10: like last year, Chapmanville rolled in, which was really cool.
• 23:50
  Speaker 3: I was really Chris Kid's still the coach Chapmanville, do
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: you know, I don't know. It's a good friend of
• 23:54
  Speaker 3: mine from the radio. He actually is a teacher, but
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: he also does some radio down there, and I knew
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: he was the coach for years the chapmanvilleage.
• 24:00
  Speaker 10: Well I'm just was really proud of chapman Field, you know.
• 24:02
  Speaker 10: But we have so much Look, look, we have what
• 24:05
  Speaker 10: twenty high schools and middle schools within a twenty minute
• 24:08
  Speaker 10: drive of the of this city. So I'm perplexed as
• 24:12
  Speaker 10: why why they don't come. It's great tennis, and it's
• 24:17
  Speaker 10: not like you're going to watch so much college. You're
• 24:20
  Speaker 10: going to see some really good high school Some of
• 24:22
  Speaker 10: these high school girls have ratings that are higher than
• 24:25
  Speaker 10: some of the college students. So you know there may
• 24:28
  Speaker 10: be an upset or two out there, but I just
• 24:31
  Speaker 10: I was not supposed to be here. I was supposed
• 24:33
  Speaker 10: to go to Florida and everything got canceled because of
• 24:36
  Speaker 10: the rain. And I'm tickled to death that I get
• 24:39
  Speaker 10: to stay and watch it. I'm not the director anymore,
• 24:42
  Speaker 10: Shane Saunders is okay, but I'm a assistant director for
• 24:46
  Speaker 10: public relations. I just made that up.
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: I like it. I mean, I make up my I
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: make up my own titles all the time. Why not?

• 25:51
  Speaker 10: you're hoping to go thirty two sixty four next year.
• 25:55
  Speaker 10: We got a late start, that's what I can say.
• 25:59
  Speaker 10: We got a late starts, so that's why we didn't
• 26:01
  Speaker 10: get a lot more colleges involved.
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: Okay, all right, well all right, now why you got
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: me here? Well, we're going to get back to the tournament.
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: I'll give all give an opportunity to give all of
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: the facts, details, time, so on and so forth. But
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: I always like to pick your brain about things when
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: it comes to political stuff.
• 26:14
  Speaker 10: I want to Dallas Cowboys.
• 26:17
  Speaker 3: The Cowboys playing to night Man. It's a tradition in
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: anytime the Cowboys, anytime the Cowboys and Marshall play their
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: respect always wear the gear. And yeah, the Cowboys play
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: the Thursday night game against the Giants. Rusty I have
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: been a Dallas Cowboy fan since Super Bowl twelve when
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: they beat the Broncos. I became a fan. They beat
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: the Broncos twenty seven to ten. Landry was the coach,
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: and I have been with this team ever since then.
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: I was seven years old and I have been with
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: this team ever since. And this is the year. This
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: is the year we're going to turn it around.
• 26:53
  Speaker 5: Here.
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: All we need is a running game and a defense,
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: and we've got it. We've got the highest paid quarterback
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: in the league, the highest paid wide receiver. If we
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: just had a running game, and just as they say,
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: other than that, missus Lincoln, how was to play? All right?
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: So let's talk about let's talk about some political stuff.
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: I want to get your opinion. I don't care, just
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: what's on your mind politically? What are you looking at
• 27:13
  Speaker 3: right now? Got the my.
• 27:17
  Speaker 10: Big concern, of course, if you follow me on social media,
• 27:19
  Speaker 10: you know exactly how I feel about the Democrat nominee.
• 27:23
  Speaker 10: But my biggest fear is for president.
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, you're not You're not on the hairs train.
• 27:30
  Speaker 10: No, not at all. My biggest fear is that she's
• 27:35
  Speaker 10: going to win those swing states. And so to the
• 27:38
  Speaker 10: extent I have any friends in other states showing whatever
• 27:44
  Speaker 10: I can for president.
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: Okay, what is it about? Did you feel the same
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: way about Biden or is it just Harris that you
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: had an issue with.
• 27:53
  Speaker 10: You know, Biden was actually a good moderate back in
• 27:55
  Speaker 10: the day. He was back in the day before they
• 27:58
  Speaker 10: got their hands on him. He was a decent moderate. Uh.
• 28:03
  Speaker 10: He was a lot like Joe Manchin in that sense.
• 28:06
  Speaker 10: As far as his politics, he was middle of the road.
• 28:10
  Speaker 10: Then they got their hands on him, and now he
• 28:12
  Speaker 10: went you know, well went liberal. But anyway, that's my
• 28:18
  Speaker 10: big concern. I'm these state races, in my opinion, are over.
• 28:25
  Speaker 10: I mean they're just over. I mean I don't and
• 28:27
  Speaker 10: I love everybody running. By the way, two of my
• 28:31
  Speaker 10: best friends are running against each other for governor, and
• 28:36
  Speaker 10: I I love love Steve, love him.
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: What about a debate though, you know, Jim Justice does
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: not want to debate Glenn Elliott, and he shouldn't.
• 28:44
  Speaker 10: He shouldn't. I mean, when you're up by thirty points,
• 28:46
  Speaker 10: why why why why why why do it just giving
• 28:49
  Speaker 10: the other part?
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: From a from a strategical standpoint, I would agree with you,
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: but I still don't think it's good for the people
• 28:57
  Speaker 3: in my opinion.
• 28:58
  Speaker 10: Uh, pass.
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: Okay, all right, pass, fair enough pass. Do you think
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: that to morrisse CV Williams is a slam dunk for Morrisey?
• 29:09
  Speaker 10: I do.
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: I think it's just the nature of the state. I
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: don't think it has anything necessarily to do with Steve Williams.
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: I don't. I don't care who's got the d after
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: the name.
• 29:17
  Speaker 10: If this was thirty years ago, it would be just
• 29:18
  Speaker 10: the opposite.
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: Yeah, thirty years in the future. It may be that.
• 29:22
  Speaker 10: I mean, you talk about being a cowboy fan since
• 29:25
  Speaker 10: age seven. I've been involved in politics since nineteen seventy two,
• 29:30
  Speaker 10: when I was eleven. Okay, I put an arch more
• 29:34
  Speaker 10: sign in the Boone County Courthouse lawn one time, not
• 29:38
  Speaker 10: knowing of course that you can't do well. A, it's
• 29:41
  Speaker 10: it's illegal, but B it was the most Democrat county.
• 29:46
  Speaker 10: You know, you were just down the road. Yeah, oh yeah, well,
• 29:50
  Speaker 10: I mean Logan. It was hard to compete with Logan
• 29:52
  Speaker 10: and Mingo back then, with you know, corrupt politics.
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: We kind of cornered the market out of that.
• 29:58
  Speaker 10: Yeah we did too. Yeah, we had our too, But
• 30:01
  Speaker 10: I remember, and I even it was raining, I put
• 30:03
  Speaker 10: cell aphane around it, so wouldn't get wet. That's how.
• 30:07
  Speaker 10: That's how. Now, that's that's a long time. I've been
• 30:10
  Speaker 10: around around it. So I know a law of the
• 30:11
  Speaker 10: history of the state. I know a law of that,
• 30:13
  Speaker 10: and I know both sides of the isle. I know
• 30:15
  Speaker 10: everybody on both sides of the isl.
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: But going back national before I let you go, yeah, yeah,
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: somebody you know here, And I've said this on the
• 30:21
  Speaker 3: show Restie. People have said on both sides. They said,
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: if Kamala Harris is elected president, that's the end of
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: democracy as we know it. I've heard people say if
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: Donald Trump is elected again, that's the end of democracy
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: as we know it. Is this grand old experiment that
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: we have of the United States of America not strong
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: enough to withstand either one of them being president. I'd
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: like to think.
• 30:42
  Speaker 10: So it's funny because I just I think about these
• 30:45
  Speaker 10: things like you do, and I had this, If I
• 30:48
  Speaker 10: had the technology, I'd have two people sitting, one in
• 30:50
  Speaker 10: blue and one in red, saying if she he, at
• 30:55
  Speaker 10: the same time is elected, our government will be destroyed
• 30:59
  Speaker 10: because both sides believe that. I've never seen a country
• 31:02
  Speaker 10: so polarized in my life. Yeah, we'll sustain it. One
• 31:07
  Speaker 10: of the you know as a conservative Republican we will
• 31:12
  Speaker 10: still have the Senate hopefully and gain the Senate and
• 31:16
  Speaker 10: have the House. So there's only so much a president
• 31:19
  Speaker 10: can do to destroy America. So we have the we
• 31:25
  Speaker 10: have the legislature to block stupid stuff.
• 31:28
  Speaker 3: Well we have. That's why we have safeguards. All right,
• 31:30

  Speaker 3: says a texture Texas Malden Volunteer Fire Department has a

  Speaker 3: how four years ago no one could stand her and

• 35:58
  Speaker 3: Yet now people act as if she's suddenly the second Coming.
• 36:01
  Speaker 3: It's disgusting. You already know how Trump governs. She did
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: it for four years and successfully, so says a Texter.
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: Texter says, have you heard of Democrats not being willing
• 36:11
  Speaker 3: to certify election results? Because I've heard a lot of
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: that on the side of Republicans. Republicans will try to
• 36:16
  Speaker 3: install Trump as president if he loses this election. Mark
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: my words, that is a definite concern of mine. I'm
• 36:23
  Speaker 3: not gonna lie to you is if Donald Trump wins that,
• 36:27
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry, if Donald Trump loses that he will not
• 36:30
  Speaker 3: accept the results. And then what do we have? Brian Dayton,
• 36:34
  Speaker 3: that's what we have, who has no comment on any
• 36:36

  Speaker 3: Isn't that Swee's okay? Moving on? So you are hoppy
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: if you guys a gate day days ago talking about
• 37:07
  Speaker 3: this campaign for jobs, digest and for those that may
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: have missed or do you want to put a little
• 37:10
  Speaker 3: bit more of a local Canal Valley spin on it?
• 37:12
  Speaker 3: What exactly is this?
• 37:14
  Speaker 9: So this is a publication we've been doing for a
• 37:16
  Speaker 9: number of years now, but it tracks West Virginia with
• 37:20
  Speaker 9: other states on fifty seven metrics of basically economic health
• 37:24
  Speaker 9: we believe that we are in a constant competition with
• 37:27
  Speaker 9: other states, and we want to know how are we doing,
• 37:31
  Speaker 9: How are we doing when it comes to tax rates,
• 37:33
  Speaker 9: how are we doing when it comes to workforce participation,
• 37:35
  Speaker 9: How are we doing when it comes to bringing people
• 37:38
  Speaker 9: into West Virginia versus having the brain drain leaving West Virginia.
• 37:43
  Speaker 9: So it's called the Campaign for Jobs Digest. It's a
• 37:46
  Speaker 9: red book. It is available on our website, so if
• 37:49
  Speaker 9: you want to get on, you can go on see
• 37:50
  Speaker 9: an electronic copy and read through these statistics. But it's
• 37:54
  Speaker 9: something we put a lot of time into this to
• 37:57
  Speaker 9: compile this and make this understandable for people to read
• 38:00
  Speaker 9: and say, Okay, what are we doing and help keep
• 38:03
  Speaker 9: the focus on what do we need to be doing
• 38:04
  Speaker 9: heading into the future.
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: Give us a summary right now for people that are working,
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: driving and can't go look at it right now.
• 38:09
  Speaker 9: Yes, if you are driving, don't pull up your phone
• 38:12
  Speaker 9: and please don't, please don't. So there's been some good
• 38:15
  Speaker 9: news in West Virginia, and there's been some unfortunate news
• 38:19
  Speaker 9: where we still have a lot of work to do,
• 38:20
  Speaker 9: but there are some things that we're really seeing that
• 38:23
  Speaker 9: I think are positive First of all, we've seen some
• 38:26
  Speaker 9: absolutely fantastic economic development announcements come into West Virginia. New
• 38:31
  Speaker 9: Core Steel, Procter and Gamble, owens of minor Mountain State
• 38:34
  Speaker 9: beverage Form Energy. Those are just some right off the
• 38:37
  Speaker 9: top of my head. Berkshire Hathway up in Jackson County,
• 38:40
  Speaker 9: that is really those were things we weren't hearing about
• 38:43
  Speaker 9: ten years ago. We didn't have that coming in. And
• 38:46
  Speaker 9: we have successfully changed I think our state's image on
• 38:49
  Speaker 9: the business climate to where these companies are now looking
• 38:52
  Speaker 9: and saying, hey, our next expansion or our next investment,
• 38:55
  Speaker 9: why not look at the Mountain state. That's been a positive.
• 38:58
  Speaker 9: Here's another one. When I graduated high school, I can
• 39:02
  Speaker 9: basically go down through the top of the roster of
• 39:05
  Speaker 9: my high school class. They ended up in Pittsburgh, they
• 39:08
  Speaker 9: ended up in Washington, d c. And Charlotte, North Carolina, Columbus, Ohio.
• 39:13
  Speaker 9: We had a brain drain in West Virginia and we
• 39:15
  Speaker 9: would see year after year people leaving West Virginia as
• 39:18
  Speaker 9: compared to coming in. We fix that for the past,
• 39:21
  Speaker 9: not by much, but for the past few years now
• 39:24
  Speaker 9: we have had more net domestic migration coming into West Virginia.
• 39:28
  Speaker 9: We ranked twenty third in the country for in terms
• 39:30
  Speaker 9: of domestic migration. We're still forty seventh on international migration.
• 39:34
  Speaker 9: But that's been a very positive break down. Domestic domestic
• 39:38
  Speaker 9: would be moving state to state, in international would be
• 39:41
  Speaker 9: moving from another country coming in, so state to state,
• 39:44
  Speaker 9: we're having more people move into West Virginia to move out.
• 39:46
  Speaker 9: That's positive. The problem is we have had more death
• 39:51
  Speaker 9: than births since two thousand and seven.
• 39:54
  Speaker 3: Since I'm glad that you are presenting both sides because
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: I get this all the time. But anytime I talk
• 39:58
  Speaker 3: about people coming into West Virginia, I live and you
• 40:00
  Speaker 3: and I both live in the Dayes Valley area. We
• 40:02
  Speaker 3: know what we see on a daily basis. It's not
• 40:05
  Speaker 3: true of everywhere in the state, you know, and but
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: hopefully it will be. But I always get somebody that
• 40:09
  Speaker 3: says people are not leaving. And the thing about it
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: is two things can be right at the same time.
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: So we were leaving, we're tops of the nation, or
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: were you know, among the top or whatever in people
• 40:19
  Speaker 3: moving here. Unfortunately, though, we have more people dying that
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: are being born because we're the oldest state in the nation.
• 40:27
  Speaker 3: So on both sides of the argument that I get
• 40:29
  Speaker 3: on the show via textra calls both sides are technically right,
• 40:33
  Speaker 3: I guess.
• 40:33
  Speaker 9: Yes, yes, And so we've got to figure out ways
• 40:37
  Speaker 9: to get our birth rip. That's going to be a
• 40:38
  Speaker 9: challenge because we do have a more elderly population in
• 40:41
  Speaker 9: West Virginia compared to other states. That's just a fact.
• 40:45
  Speaker 9: But one of the big issues we're hearing a lot
• 40:48
  Speaker 9: of talk about right now is it pertains the special
• 40:50
  Speaker 9: session heading into the regular session, for example, is childcare
• 40:53
  Speaker 9: and some people who are making plans on the size
• 40:55
  Speaker 9: of family they're going to have. That is a major
• 40:57
  Speaker 9: factor and can be the difference between do you have
• 41:00
  Speaker 9: one children or two, or have two versus three? You know,
• 41:03
  Speaker 9: So we're looking at things like that too. What do
• 41:05
  Speaker 9: you do to make it easier for people who may
• 41:07
  Speaker 9: want to have more children but are looking at the
• 41:09
  Speaker 9: finance and going, I don't know that I can, but yeah,
• 41:13
  Speaker 9: the good news is we are having more people move
• 41:15
  Speaker 9: here than we've had moved out. We got to fix
• 41:17
  Speaker 9: the birth rate.
• 41:19
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean just look at people and say go
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: have babies.
• 41:22
  Speaker 9: That I mean, you can say that I have two
• 41:26
  Speaker 9: and I'm looking at my wife and tell you that
• 41:27
  Speaker 9: that's great too.
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: Good. I'm good, I'm good, I'm good to you mentioned
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: the special session. Well, now we'll close with this, and
• 41:35
  Speaker 3: the special session is next week. We still, as of
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: right now, I know you followed it, you know a
• 41:40
  Speaker 3: lot more closely than I have. As of right now,
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: we still don't know what's going to be on the call.
• 41:43
  Speaker 3: Some of the legislators are kind of wringing their hands, saying, well,
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: what are we even talking about? Because he has to
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: put it on there. Are you hopeful that that meaningful
• 41:53
  Speaker 3: change or meaningful legislation or meaningful discussions or whatever you
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: want to call it will come out in that special
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: session as it pertains to childcare.
• 42:01
  Speaker 9: Yes, yes, I am, And there have been a lot
• 42:03
  Speaker 9: of very good conversations. Five years ago, Dave, this really
• 42:07
  Speaker 9: wasn't an issue that people talked about. It was an issue,
• 42:10
  Speaker 9: but it wasn't receiving intention. Now it's becoming, i think
• 42:13
  Speaker 9: more evident to lawmakers, to policymakers, to the business community,
• 42:17
  Speaker 9: the general public, we really have to address this. So
• 42:20
  Speaker 9: we've heard had some very productive conversations on that topic
• 42:24
  Speaker 9: that where we may be able to get some serious
• 42:26
  Speaker 9: things done during this special session. It's all going to
• 42:30
  Speaker 9: be combined with the governor wants an income tax cut.
• 42:33
  Speaker 9: You know, there are some other desires out there that
• 42:35
  Speaker 9: are being brought in. So what I would remind your
• 42:38
  Speaker 9: listeners is when it comes to a special session, the
• 42:42
  Speaker 9: legislature by two thirds can call themselves in. Otherwise, the
• 42:45
  Speaker 9: governor calls them in, and what he puts on the
• 42:48
  Speaker 9: call is what they can't address. It's not like a
• 42:51
  Speaker 9: regular session where you can introduce what else.
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it can only be what's on the agenda pretty much.
• 42:55
  Speaker 9: Yes, So what is on the call can dictate of
• 42:58
  Speaker 9: what they can consider.
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: All right. I appreciate you being here and for not
• 43:03
  Speaker 3: giving me crap like a rusty webdit about my Cowboys apparel.
• 43:06
  Speaker 9: I mean, hey, buddy, I'm a Steelers fan. I'm just
• 43:09
  Speaker 9: being nice today.
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: Real quick. I did have a text somebody said, what
• 43:13
  Speaker 3: counties are the folks migrating to in West Virginia? Do
• 43:15
  Speaker 3: you have that data? If they're coming here where? What
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: are some of the counties that I would imagine Berkeley's
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: probably on that list?
• 43:21
  Speaker 9: Jefferson, Yeah, you really look at it. The counties that
• 43:24
  Speaker 9: are growing. You have a lot that are kind of
• 43:26
  Speaker 9: saying stagnant. The Eastern Panhandle has seen some real growth
• 43:30
  Speaker 9: where you and I live out in Putnam County has
• 43:32
  Speaker 9: been growing a little bit, not as great. Montgelia County
• 43:35
  Speaker 9: has been doing well. So we've seen the growth focused
• 43:38
  Speaker 9: in a few areas. But what we have noticed is
• 43:42
  Speaker 9: that drain that's been going around is slowing in a
• 43:45
  Speaker 9: lot of areas. So I think that's a positive that
• 43:47
  Speaker 9: that is movement in the right direction. But where you're
• 43:49
  Speaker 9: really looking, where the growth is coming, Eastern Panhandle, Montingeya, Putnam,
• 43:54
  Speaker 9: those are the primary areas.
• 43:55
  Speaker 3: All right, Brian, will have you on again soon. I appreciate.

  Speaker 18: Hey, Dave, Yeah, russy game yesterday. I mean to be
• 47:56
  Speaker 18: honest with you, we always say how great it is
• 47:58
  Speaker 18: that we can play in the rain because of turf,
• 48:00
  Speaker 18: but that really just messed up our pitchers and not
• 48:03
  Speaker 18: just the dirty Birds pitchers, the other teams pitchers had
• 48:06
  Speaker 18: issues finding the strike zone wild pitches. It just so

• 48:31
  Speaker 18: a pretty depressing stat Since nineteen ninety one, we have
• 48:35
  Speaker 18: lost fourteen consecutive Championship Series games. So looking to break
• 48:40
  Speaker 18: that curse right now, trying to bring home a championship
• 48:42
  Speaker 18: from York, all right.
• 48:43
  Speaker 3: And remind people of because I don't know how many

  Speaker 3: They have come a long way from being the perennial

• 50:04
  Speaker 3: job to them. Tech says, I like how West Virginia
• 50:07

  Speaker 3: other fifty two hecty county with the capitol of Kanawa

  Speaker 3: Dunbar as well. The Winfield issue led to schools being
• 50:40
  Speaker 3: closed in that area in the Putnam County Courthouse as
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: well as Winfield City Hall. Would not want to be
