Speaker 1: production of iHeartRadio Podcasts.
0:18
Speaker 2: You have a sort of special podcast today in which
0:20
Speaker 2: I want to deal with only a few topics, but
0:24
Speaker 2: they're like big topics. I could actually do an entire
0:28
Speaker 2: podcast on each of these, but we're not going to
0:31
Speaker 2: break it down into just one topic, but several big ones.
0:35
Speaker 2: The first one starts with there was you know. One
0:39
Speaker 2: of the things that Charlie Kirk talked about a lot
0:41
Speaker 2: before he was assassinated was his focus on the term
0:45
Speaker 2: that's been used is the lost Boys of the West.
0:49
Speaker 2: The lost Boys of the West, the young American males
0:54
Speaker 2: who lacked any direction because of the atrocious messaging that
1:00
Speaker 2: they've been subjected to. The young males who've been told
1:05
Speaker 2: their entire lives that their whiteness was a problem, that
1:09
Speaker 2: their masculinity is toxic, that they have been given as
1:17
Speaker 2: a group too many advantages, and it was now time
1:19
Speaker 2: to correct and the ones that would be the victims
1:23
Speaker 2: of this correction would be them. And he had great
1:28
Speaker 2: success in getting many of them to be open to
1:31
Speaker 2: his message because he was the first guy to tell
1:33
Speaker 2: them a contrary message. There's nothing wrong with being a
1:37
Speaker 2: man and be a real man. Hey, get married, be
1:39
Speaker 2: a guy, pray, work, You're worth something. But the reality
1:50
Speaker 2: is there are only so many of them that he
1:51
Speaker 2: could reach, and those lost boys in the West are
1:55
Speaker 2: part of a larger group Generation Z you had way
2:02
Speaker 2: twenty years ago, lots of topics in the millennials, the
2:05
Speaker 2: generation prior to that. We even did a series of
2:07
Speaker 2: podcasts on millennials that got lots of attention and saved
2:11
Speaker 2: it for years, and it's still out there in podcast land.
2:14
Speaker 2: I think for somebody to be able to find. We're
2:17
Speaker 2: going to focus here on the situation revolving around gen
2:22
Speaker 2: Z and the take of a very prominent social commentator
2:26
Speaker 2: on them. First, have you ever been offered an add
2:28
Speaker 2: on option for premium or white gloves service? U line
2:32
Speaker 2: provides only one type of service, the best from knowledgeable
2:35
Speaker 2: customer service available twenty four to seven three sixty five
2:39
Speaker 2: to keeping every product in stock ready to ship the
2:41
Speaker 2: same day. When your business needs quality shipping supplies, reliable
2:45
Speaker 2: warehouse equipment or office furniture, fast contact you line and
2:50
Speaker 2: get the best service because you line believe service is essential,
2:56
Speaker 2: not an option. One of the greatest social commentators of
3:00
Speaker 2: our era is Victor Davis Hansen. He wrote an essay
3:07
Speaker 2: and you can find all of his stuff on the
3:08
Speaker 2: website I have belling dot com. There's a tabinet, said
3:11
Speaker 2: Victor Davis Hanson. Let's what of require some searching. He
3:13
Speaker 2: wrote this a couple of weeks ago. Actually, let's see
3:17
Speaker 2: November twenty seventh was his drop data, so it's about
3:20
Speaker 2: two weeks old. It's very relevant. The headline is can
3:27
Speaker 2: the Lost Generation be found? He writes, The current Generation Z,
3:36
Speaker 2: those roughly between thirteen and twenty eight years old, is
3:41
Speaker 2: becoming our twenty first century version of the Lost Generation.
3:46
Speaker 2: Members of Gen Z are often nicknamed zoomers, a term
3:51
Speaker 2: used to describe young adults who came of age and
3:54
Speaker 2: the era of smartphones, social media, and rapid cultural upheaval
4:00
Speaker 2: in their teens and twenties are prolonging their adolescence, rarely marrying,
4:06
Speaker 2: not buying a home, not having children, and often not
4:11
Speaker 2: working full time. The negative stereotype of a zoomer is
4:15
Speaker 2: a shiftless man who plays too many video games. He
4:19
Speaker 2: is too coddled by parents and too afraid to strike
4:23
Speaker 2: out on his own. Zoomers rarely date, supposedly out of
4:28
Speaker 2: fear that they would have to grow up, take charge
4:32
Speaker 2: and had a household. Yet the opposite, sympathetic generalization of
4:37
Speaker 2: gen Z seems more attractive. All through K twelve, young men,
4:44
Speaker 2: particularly white males, have been demonized for their quote toxic
4:48
Speaker 2: masculinity that draws accusations of sexes and racism and homophobia.
4:53
Speaker 2: In college, the majority of students are female. In contrast,
4:58
Speaker 2: white males to ten percent of admittees in recent years
5:02
Speaker 2: at elite schools like Stanford and the Ivy League. Think
5:05
Speaker 2: of that nine to ten percent of the people being
5:09
Speaker 2: admitted to prestigious University of United States are white males.
5:13
Speaker 2: First of all, if it's fifty to fifty half the
5:15
Speaker 2: admittes of males, they're not more female. But the majority
5:20
Speaker 2: of the males being admitted are not white. And again
5:24
Speaker 2: we all know all the reasons for this. Racial preferences
5:26
Speaker 2: et cetera back to Hansen are of no interest to
5:31
Speaker 2: college admission officers, so they are tagged not as unique individuals,
5:36
Speaker 2: but as superfluous losers on the wrong race. Gender, or
5:42
Speaker 2: sexual orientation. Gen Z men saw themselves escapegoaded by professors
5:48
Speaker 2: and society for the sins of past generations and on
5:52
Speaker 2: the wrong side of the preposterous reductionist binary of oppressors
5:58
Speaker 2: and the oppressed. Traditional pathways to adulthood, affordable homes, upwardly
6:05
Speaker 2: mobile and secure jobs, and safe and secure city and
6:08
Speaker 2: suburban living had mostly vanished amid overregulation, over taxation and
6:13
Speaker 2: under policing orthodox and loud student advocacies on campus climate
6:20
Speaker 2: change DEI. The Palestinians had little to do with getting
6:24
Speaker 2: a job, raising a family, or buying a house. During
6:28
Speaker 2: the Biden years, white males mostly stopped enlisting in the
6:31
Speaker 2: military in their accustomed over represented numbers. In Iraq and Afghanistan,
6:38
Speaker 2: they had died in frontline combat units at twice the
6:41
Speaker 2: percentages of their demographic No matter prior, Pentagon DEI commissaires
6:47
Speaker 2: still slandered them as suspects, unlikely to form, unlikely to
6:52
Speaker 2: form racist cabal likely to form racist cabals. Gen Z
6:56
Speaker 2: mails seemed bewildered by women and sex, and often withdrew
7:01
Speaker 2: from dating. Never has popular cultures so promoted sexually provocative
7:08
Speaker 2: fashions semi nudity and free wheeling lifestyles and careers of
7:13
Speaker 2: supposedly empowered single women, and never had the rules of
7:18
Speaker 2: dating and sexuality become more retrograde. Victorian casual consensual sex
7:25
Speaker 2: was flashed as cool everywhere on social media, and when
7:29
Speaker 2: it naturally proved in the real world to be selfish, callous,
7:32
Speaker 2: and empty, males were almost always exclusively blamed as if
7:38
Speaker 2: they were not proper Edwardian gentlemen. Soon, young men feared
7:43
Speaker 2: sexual hookups and promiscuity as avenues to post facto and
7:48
Speaker 2: one sided charges of harassment or worse. For the half
7:53
Speaker 2: of Generation Z who went to college, tuition had soared,
7:58
Speaker 2: rising faster than the rate of inflation. Administrators were often
8:02
Speaker 2: more numerous than faculty. Obsessive fixation with race determined everything
8:07
Speaker 2: from dorm selections to graduation ceremonies. Zoomers were mired in
8:13
Speaker 2: enormous student debt, yet they soon learned that their gut
8:19
Speaker 2: social science and studies degrees proved nearly worthless. Employers saw
8:25
Speaker 2: such certificates as neither proof of traditional knowledge nor of
8:30
Speaker 2: any needed specialized skill set. Unemployed or half employed as
8:35
Speaker 2: Zoomers then ended up with unsustainable five figure student loans
8:40
Speaker 2: and the insidious interest on them. Their affluent left wing
8:45
Speaker 2: tenured professors, who would once demonized them as oppressors, could
8:49
Speaker 2: have cared less about their dismal fates. Added all up
8:55
Speaker 2: and zoomers puzzled their parents, and they found scant guide
9:00
Speaker 2: gidance from the campus. Instead, they sought needed spiritual inspiration
9:05
Speaker 2: from a Jordan Peterson, entertainment and pragmatic advice from a
9:10
Speaker 2: Joe Rogan, but sometimes toxic venting from a demagogue, anti
9:14
Speaker 2: semitic Nick Fuentes. What would shock the lost generation back
9:20
Speaker 2: into the mainstream, barring a war, depression or natural catastrophe,
9:27
Speaker 2: one an nd DEI hectoring and blame gaming, and a
9:31
Speaker 2: return to class rather than race determining privilege to some
9:37
Speaker 2: sanity in the war between the sexies. When women represent
9:41
Speaker 2: nearly sixty percent of undergraduates, why does gender still assured
9:45
Speaker 2: advantage it admissions and hiring. Let me interject what a
9:49
Speaker 2: good point. If sixty percent of the people going to
9:52
Speaker 2: college at women, why are we still giving women preferences?
9:57
Speaker 2: The ends is pretty simple, because of just this declared
10:00
Speaker 2: that actual males are evil. The only males that aren't
10:04
Speaker 2: evil are females who describe themselves as male. Back to Hanson, three,
10:09
Speaker 2: the federal government needs to stop funding one point seven
10:12
Speaker 2: trillion dollars in student debt, often for worthless degrees and
10:16
Speaker 2: wasting away one's prime twenties and thirties. Let universities pledge
10:24
Speaker 2: their endowments to guarantee their own loans. They should graduate
10:29
Speaker 2: students in four years, and they must slash the parasitical
10:33
Speaker 2: class of toxic administrative busybodies who cannot teach but can
10:38
Speaker 2: hector and bully. Four. Society needs to stop granting status
10:43
Speaker 2: on the basis of increasingly meaningless letters and titles after
10:47
Speaker 2: a name. Skilled tradesmen like electricians and mechanics are noble professions,
10:52
Speaker 2: and their status and compensation should reflect their value to
10:55
Speaker 2: society far more than a bachelor's degree in a study
10:59
Speaker 2: in a study's major, or years vaporized in off and on. College. Finally,
11:05
Speaker 2: insteativized building homes rather than over regulating them and zoning
11:09
Speaker 2: them into one affordability. If the loss gen Z is
11:13
Speaker 2: not found soon, the result for everyone will not be pretty.
11:18
Speaker 2: Piece was written by Victor Davis Hanson addressing the plight
11:23
Speaker 2: of gen Z and particularly gen Z mails, and I
11:27
Speaker 2: want to give a counterpoint to that. This is based
11:32
Speaker 2: on my observation, and I pride myself of being a
11:34
Speaker 2: good social observer. There is an alternative group of them.
11:40
Speaker 2: I'll call them the gen Z male survivors. They're the
11:46
Speaker 2: ones that basically rejected all the bullblape, either because they
11:53
Speaker 2: were grounded by their parents or something. And I know
11:59
Speaker 2: the sounds rrogant. Sometimes that's something was me. I mean,
12:03
Speaker 2: I just hear from many people that are in that generation. Again,
12:06
Speaker 2: he's describing from thirteen twenty. They describe themselves as belling babies,
12:09
Speaker 2: and they thank me for offer. And I know why
12:13
Speaker 2: they're thanking me. Nobody else they had ever heard in
12:17
Speaker 2: their lives was saying these things. Maybe their parents are
12:19
Speaker 2: saying it because that's why they were exposed. But okay,
12:22
Speaker 2: your parents are saying and they're not cool. Here's this
12:24
Speaker 2: other person. In my case, it was me. For some
12:27
Speaker 2: of them, more recently, it was somebody like Rogan or
12:33
Speaker 2: some other podcasters that are kind of macho guys other
12:39
Speaker 2: than those you know, sometimes that was the only perspective
12:42
Speaker 2: that they got. And the ones that were exposed to
12:44
Speaker 2: that had started thinking for themselves and realizing my stupid,
12:47
Speaker 2: idiotic unionized school teachers not somebody to pay any attention to.
12:51
Speaker 2: These professors are full of crap. The ones that have
12:55
Speaker 2: rejected all of this, not only are they going to thrive,
12:59
Speaker 2: but it's more than that. This is an important point.
13:06
Speaker 2: What's the best field in general to go into? You
13:12
Speaker 2: don't have no idea of how to answer this really
13:14
Speaker 2: simple though, Well, you go into a field in which
13:22
Speaker 2: hardly anybody's any good. Now, I could kind of say
13:26
Speaker 2: that that's true of being a talk show host, but
13:28
Speaker 2: I think that's mostly just because I think I'm really good.
13:31
Speaker 2: But I'll be honest with you. Most people do talk
13:32
Speaker 2: shows aren't very good. I don't mean here in Milwaukee,
13:35
Speaker 2: I mean in general. Most podcasters aren't any good. The
13:40
Speaker 2: ones that you hear about that have a following, obviously
13:42
Speaker 2: they are good, but there's thousands, tens of thousand, hundreds
13:45
Speaker 2: of thousands of them out there. You want to go
13:47
Speaker 2: into a field that isn't very good because it's easier
13:50
Speaker 2: to get to the top. For instance, you be at
13:53
Speaker 2: a drummer. That's the opposite of that. You and I
13:56
Speaker 2: are part of a generation which zillions of people wanted
13:58
Speaker 2: to be involved in music, and some of the greatest
14:00
Speaker 2: music of all time was created. So you're going into
14:03
Speaker 2: a field in which the zillions, it's no wonder you're
14:06
Speaker 2: sitting there doing my show rather than drumming for Van
14:08
Speaker 2: Halen or something. On the other hand, if you go
14:11
Speaker 2: into a field in which some of these skilled trades
14:16
Speaker 2: right now, then not only is a shortage of people,
14:20
Speaker 2: probably some of the people that are going into are
14:21
Speaker 2: going into it because they see the money and maybe
14:23
Speaker 2: don't have a particular skill or an aptitude for it.
14:28
Speaker 2: Getting back to my point of the gen z's, those
14:31
Speaker 2: therefore that rejected all the crap, they are in the
14:37
Speaker 2: driver's seat for their generation because the vast majority of
14:41
Speaker 2: other males their age are all blaped up. If you're
14:48
Speaker 2: twenty four to twenty five and you have something vowing
14:51
Speaker 2: for yourself and you're a young male, you actually benefit
14:56
Speaker 2: from the fact that so many of your peers had
14:59
Speaker 2: all this crap choved into their heads, because these are
15:01
Speaker 2: the people now that you can soar past in your life.
15:09
Speaker 2: COVID I think created a mixed impact. And again we're
15:15
Speaker 2: talking a generation thirteen to twenty, and a lot of
15:17
Speaker 2: it had to do with what age you actually were
15:19
Speaker 2: at the time that it hit. For the kids that
15:21
Speaker 2: were in high school, the best years of their lives
15:22
Speaker 2: high school or in college ripped from them, virtual learning,
15:26
Speaker 2: being scared to death, masks being put on, graduation being
15:31
Speaker 2: taken away, all that crap. For some that had a
15:36
Speaker 2: negative effect. But for others, the effect, I think, long
15:38
Speaker 2: term was positive. You know that long term positive was
15:41
Speaker 2: they realized the establishment was full of crap. There are
15:47
Speaker 2: a whole lot of young people. I don't need the shot,
15:49
Speaker 2: I don't need to wear a mask. None of us
15:51
Speaker 2: are getting sick. They're killing me all this stuff, and
15:54
Speaker 2: I realize it's all garbage. Well, the ones that realized
15:58
Speaker 2: it was all garbage, they're they've lapped the field because
16:03
Speaker 2: there are others out there that bought into all of it.
16:09
Speaker 2: He doesn't mention this, but I could add in the
16:12
Speaker 2: drugging of this generation, the opioids, fenanol and all the
16:18
Speaker 2: marijuana that so much of them have, they're all sapping
16:21
Speaker 2: of spirit and energy. Short term, feel good, long term
16:25
Speaker 2: be a dead ass. You're not on that again, your
16:28
Speaker 2: laps ahead of the field of your peers. Let me
16:36
Speaker 2: move to another I think big topic. This is one
16:43
Speaker 2: of those that at some point I'm gonna do an
16:45
Speaker 2: entire podcast on the threat to American free speech from overseas.
16:54
Speaker 2: This sounds vague right looking at my TV screen, sometimes
17:01
Speaker 2: it just amazes me at how women change in appearance.
17:04
Speaker 2: I mean, guys like you and me, we just get older, right,
17:07
Speaker 2: but we still look we look like an older version
17:10
Speaker 2: of what we once did. It just seem that women
17:12
Speaker 2: have the ability to morph into entirely different human beings.
17:16
Speaker 2: Dagan McDowell is on my screen up there. I remember
17:18
Speaker 2: when she was on Imos's show, Paul. She did not
17:21
Speaker 2: look a bit like that. Do you ever want when
17:23
Speaker 2: iMOS had his show what I'mus would simulcasts radio show
17:26
Speaker 2: on television, First he was on I forget the first
17:29
Speaker 2: what he was on, then he went to Fox Business
17:31
Speaker 2: after he came back after the can of the first
17:33
Speaker 2: time around and she was out at the second. She
17:35
Speaker 2: doesn't look at all like she. I mean, I suppose
17:40
Speaker 2: we men could do that. You know, die are here
17:42
Speaker 2: and you know, you know gold with you know, blonde
17:46
Speaker 2: guys become dark hair or I mean, there's do you
17:52
Speaker 2: remember her when she was on iMOS? Does that look
17:55
Speaker 2: at all, would you have known? Would you have ever
17:57
Speaker 2: if you had just seen that face? Would you've ever
17:58
Speaker 2: known that was her? I'm glad you're backing me up
18:01
Speaker 2: with that. If you didn't, would have wasted five minutes
18:04
Speaker 2: of the show with me trying to argue the point. No,
18:06
Speaker 2: none of this. What are the primary forms of communication now?
18:15
Speaker 2: Essentially social media? Right? In fact, that term you probably
18:19
Speaker 2: need a new term for it. Facebook and X formerly
18:25
Speaker 2: owned as Twitter, are overwhelmingly the top sources of news
18:30
Speaker 2: and information and communication. I, for example, post a lot
18:37
Speaker 2: of things on X. Facebook used to be highly restrictive,
18:42
Speaker 2: and you said if you tried to offer a contrary
18:44
Speaker 2: point of view during COVID or many other things, you
18:47
Speaker 2: were smacked down, fact checked, or you simply couldn't say
18:50
Speaker 2: that at all. They've gotten better, I think thanks to
18:52
Speaker 2: the election of Trump and after Musk bought Twitter and
18:57
Speaker 2: rebranded it as X. Twitter was the worst. It's stifled everything,
19:01
Speaker 2: and Musk has allowed it to become essentially anything goes.
19:04
Speaker 2: Here's the butt. These are global platforms. You can post
19:17
Speaker 2: on X pretty much anywhere in the world other than
19:20
Speaker 2: a handful of countries are just blocked that. I don't
19:22
Speaker 2: know that you can in North Korea, but pretty much
19:23
Speaker 2: everywhere in the world, Facebook, Instagram, you name it, the EU,
19:32
Speaker 2: the nations of Europe. Then aren't the UK have become
19:37
Speaker 2: more and more repressive with regard to their speech codes.
19:41
Speaker 2: Late last week the EU find X. We get the
19:44
Speaker 2: dollar figure here, It was an extremely high amount. Yeah,
20:02
Speaker 2: I don't have it anyway, a giant fine from the
20:05
Speaker 2: EU on X. And it's because of content. In other words,
20:12
Speaker 2: X is being fined massively by the EU for not
20:16
Speaker 2: restricting content the EU doesn't approve of. In other words,
20:21
Speaker 2: one musk took X and allowed free speech to return
20:25
Speaker 2: to it so people could shoot off their mos and
20:27
Speaker 2: say all matter of things, including conservative saying anything at all.
20:31
Speaker 2: They've run a fall of the laws with regarding censorship
20:35
Speaker 2: in Europe. Remember these are global platforms. It's very hard
20:42
Speaker 2: for these platforms to allow me to post something that's
20:44
Speaker 2: seen in the United States but not seen in Canada
20:48
Speaker 2: or not seen elsewhere. If the EU is successful in
20:52
Speaker 2: cracking down on social media companies to restrict speech, it
20:57
Speaker 2: means de facto American speech has been restricted. You see
21:00
Speaker 2: what I'm saying here. It isn't any longer enough for
21:03
Speaker 2: us to push for the First Amendment of free speech
21:06
Speaker 2: in the United States. As the world becomes more globalized,
21:10
Speaker 2: and in the case of businesses that are global by nature,
21:12
Speaker 2: which is just about everybody on the Internet, a restriction
21:18
Speaker 2: in another country impacts the content of a social media
21:24
Speaker 2: company that is global. We have certainly been facing tremendous
21:29
Speaker 2: threats here in the United States because of speech codes
21:31
Speaker 2: from lefties who try to silence anybody who's right of center.
21:35
Speaker 2: But the greater threat is foreigners putting restrictions on companies
21:41
Speaker 2: that are global in nature that have become the primary
21:43
Speaker 2: form of communication of Americans. As I say that topic
21:49
Speaker 2: could be developed for an entire podcast. I'll leave it
21:53
Speaker 2: at that. But the only way we can deal with it,
21:59
Speaker 2: I think, is for the United States to assert itself
22:02
Speaker 2: and say hands off these companies. And this is where
22:05
Speaker 2: Trump needs to have the weapon of tariffs, because what
22:09
Speaker 2: else can you do to get them to back off?
22:11
Speaker 2: All Right, you find expert saying that they can't have
22:13
Speaker 2: free speech, I'm gonna teariff you on something or another.
22:16
Speaker 2: Trump has had tremendous success in getting the rest of
22:19
Speaker 2: the world to stop pushing us around by using the
22:22
Speaker 2: threat of tariff. If the Supreme Court takes that away,
22:26
Speaker 2: I don't know what weapon we particularly have. The alternative,
22:31
Speaker 2: I suppose is for some of these businesses like Facebook
22:34
Speaker 2: and x and some of the others to simply say
22:36
Speaker 2: we're not going to go into Europe. But that screws
22:38
Speaker 2: up your entire business model. If they're going to restrict
22:40
Speaker 2: themselves and not be It'd be like if Uber said
22:42
Speaker 2: we're only going to be in the United States. I
22:44
Speaker 2: don't know what percentage of the revenue is in the US,
22:46
Speaker 2: but I know it's not half. The difference is Uber
22:51
Speaker 2: is basically that people driving cars around you can have
22:54
Speaker 2: a speed limit in one country or something else in
22:56
Speaker 2: another in the United States and doesn't change anything. But
22:58
Speaker 2: when you post something on a social med platform that
23:00
Speaker 2: is accessible anywhere, if you run a fall of a
23:03
Speaker 2: government way off, if you run a fall of the
23:05
Speaker 2: government and Iceland or the government in France or such
23:08
Speaker 2: and such, and they levy a massive fine on you
23:11
Speaker 2: that you have to pay, it may affect your policies
23:14
Speaker 2: with regard to content that are in place everywhere in
23:17
Speaker 2: the world. You follow all that one hundred and forty million,
23:24
Speaker 2: I was looking for that number that's what the fight.
23:26
Speaker 2: And again, in the overall scheme of things, one hundred
23:28
Speaker 2: and forty million dollars for Elon Musk is not the
23:31
Speaker 2: end of the world, but it's a sizeable amount. It's enough,
23:34
Speaker 2: I suppose for somebody that wasn't as adamant or as
23:38
Speaker 2: rich as Elon Musk in favor of free speech potentially
23:43
Speaker 2: to buckle. Go back to the United States and COVID
23:46
Speaker 2: and look at the pressure of the Biden administration put
23:48
Speaker 2: on social media companies to knock down any type of
23:50
Speaker 2: descent on COVID policies. That descent that they knocked down
23:55
Speaker 2: turned out to be statements that were factual. Now, that
23:59
Speaker 2: was the threat from within, But the reality is we
24:02
Speaker 2: have some leverage from that threat within here in the
24:05
Speaker 2: United States so that we can vote them out of office.
24:07
Speaker 2: What are we supposed to do about the EU short
24:10
Speaker 2: of tariffs? I think nothing. This is the Mark Belling podcast.
24:18
Speaker 2: This is the Mark Belling podcast. I mentioned at the
24:21
Speaker 2: beginning of the program sort of big topics. I'm going
24:24
Speaker 2: to grab a small topic that has a big point
24:28
Speaker 2: to it. You could come up with a million examples
24:34
Speaker 2: to prove the following point. The example I'm going to
24:37
Speaker 2: use is the hepatitis B vaccine. It's in the cross
24:43
Speaker 2: here is now of RFK the hepatitis B vaccine. Again,
24:50
Speaker 2: there's different forms of hepatitis. The hepatitis B vaccine is
24:53
Speaker 2: in the schedule of vaccines for children. The schedule is
24:57
Speaker 2: the list of vaccines that they want kids to have.
25:04
Speaker 2: The potential of a child getting hepatitis B is extremely limited.
25:12
Speaker 2: So why is it on the vaccine schedule? I'm gonna
25:16
Speaker 2: pause for a few seconds there. The explanation for almost
25:21
Speaker 2: everything is money or power, and usually both. Why is
25:25
Speaker 2: hepatitis B on the vaccine schedule for young children? Are
25:31
Speaker 2: they engaging in any of the behaviors in which hepatitis
25:34
Speaker 2: B is transmitted? No? Why is it on there? Who benefits? Now?
25:50
Speaker 2: I know that some of you are ahead of me
25:52
Speaker 2: on this, and some of them are in the anti
25:53
Speaker 2: vaxer crowd. And I'm not an anti vaxer, as I
25:56
Speaker 2: put out all the time, I have become a skeptic
25:59
Speaker 2: in any of these areas, and we should be skeptics
26:01
Speaker 2: and everything. The anti vaccins are ahead of me on
26:07
Speaker 2: this because they've been making these arguments for some time.
26:11
Speaker 2: The point that I make is. I think lumping all
26:13
Speaker 2: vaccine all vaccines bad is. I'm not persuaded on that. However,
26:19
Speaker 2: I'm not one of these morns. It's gonna run around
26:20
Speaker 2: and say all vaccines are good. That's like saying all
26:24
Speaker 2: football coaches are good, or all podcasters are good, or
26:28
Speaker 2: all producers are good. Well, there aren't many good producers
26:32
Speaker 2: ei there. Well, you shouldn't want to see. I've never
26:36
Speaker 2: understood why people are defensive of the physition. I want
26:39
Speaker 2: to say that the most podcasters aren't any good because
26:41
Speaker 2: I am good. What are you defensive of the whole
26:44
Speaker 2: thing of free? You should say that they're almost all stink,
26:47
Speaker 2: and therefore you're one of the rarest standouts of somebody
26:49
Speaker 2: who knows what they're doing. Why don't you say that? Then?
26:58
Speaker 2: I think the majority stink. I think the majority of
27:00
Speaker 2: everything stinks, don't you. I think forty percent stank most
27:05
Speaker 2: yours forty percent stank, forty percent are okay, and twenty
27:08
Speaker 2: percent are really really good. Right, That's how quarterbacks are, right, Yeah, Well,
27:13
Speaker 2: that's what I said, for the most part, twenty percent
27:15
Speaker 2: forty percent. Why is hepve on the childhood vaccine? Who
27:27
Speaker 2: benefits now? That answer is very simple. The companies that
27:32
Speaker 2: sell it. If your kid gets vaccinated, that means you've
27:39
Speaker 2: bought the vaccine, either through your insurance, direct payment, the
27:44
Speaker 2: government paying whatever the form is from the drug company
27:48
Speaker 2: that makes the vaccine. This is where people get flowboxed
27:53
Speaker 2: when their insurance covers something, or in the case of COVID,
27:55
Speaker 2: when the government bought it. Well, but it's free. Who's
27:57
Speaker 2: making any money dot somebody's he's always making money. There's
28:01
Speaker 2: nobody out there cranking out these vaccines and say here
28:03
Speaker 2: they are for free. Now here's what happened with hepatitis V.
28:08
Speaker 2: I'm in the age group in which they start recommending
28:10
Speaker 2: vaccination for certain things that you wouldn't be recommended for before.
28:13
Speaker 2: I don't know what the age for pneumonia is, but
28:15
Speaker 2: I don't think they recommend then aemonia vaccine. I don't
28:19
Speaker 2: like to say these things. Sometimes I'm growing. I think
28:21
Speaker 2: that there's an age group in which they start recommending
28:23
Speaker 2: then ammonia vaccine. Anyway, the hepatitis, what shingles is like
28:28
Speaker 2: that some of them, you're likely to get it when
28:30
Speaker 2: you're old, then you're not in the same fashion that
28:32
Speaker 2: you know. Younger people are more likely to get something anyway.
28:37
Speaker 2: The hepatitis vaccine, the hepatitis B vaccine has been around
28:41
Speaker 2: for some time and hardly any adults for getting it.
28:46
Speaker 2: I'm almost positive I've never gotten it. I don't think
28:48
Speaker 2: I would need it if I got it. It was
28:51
Speaker 2: years ago when I forgot about it or they gave
28:52
Speaker 2: it to me. And a doctor's pointment saying, I'm pretty
28:55
Speaker 2: sure I never got it, and I'm not engaging in
28:57
Speaker 2: anything that would make I can't imagine that risk or
29:00
Speaker 2: appetitis be So here's the thing. Drug companies are making
29:03
Speaker 2: this vaccine and hardly any adults wanted it, So what
29:05
Speaker 2: did they do. They lobbied the government to get it
29:09
Speaker 2: on the childhood vaccine schedule. You wonder how it is,
29:16
Speaker 2: and again I don't. I don't. It's probably recorded somewhere.
29:21
Speaker 2: I mean, I got to I'm sure my parents got
29:22
Speaker 2: me all the ones you were supposed to get for
29:24
Speaker 2: a kid that was born when I was I still can't.
29:28
Speaker 2: I actually remember some of those shots probably were the
29:31
Speaker 2: ones that you were four. It's not saying I remember
29:34
Speaker 2: the ones that won, but I kind of remember a
29:36
Speaker 2: couple of because that was like a traumatic thing. You
29:38
Speaker 2: get the shot and you know all of that. The
29:42
Speaker 2: number of vaccines has exploded from what they were when
29:45
Speaker 2: I was a kid. In some cases it's because they
29:48
Speaker 2: developed a vaccine that didn't exist before, but in other
29:51
Speaker 2: cases it's because the drug companies lobbying to have it included,
29:54
Speaker 2: to well, we need to protect the kid against this,
29:55
Speaker 2: that and the other thing. And this is where the
29:57
Speaker 2: anti vaxxs movement has started, where some parents just all
30:00
Speaker 2: of them, and they're wondering, why is my kid a
30:02
Speaker 2: pin cushion? And then look at it, my kid's never
30:04
Speaker 2: going to get this. Why are they getting all of
30:06
Speaker 2: these things? And those people who've been raising those questions
30:09
Speaker 2: have been smacked. Oh, you can't question, you can't question,
30:11
Speaker 2: You can't question why. We have not only seen the CDC,
30:17
Speaker 2: but we have seen the opinion leaders in our society
30:21
Speaker 2: simply become shills for drug companies trying to sell something.
30:26
Speaker 2: Every one of these things should be treated individually on
30:29
Speaker 2: a case by case basis. The hepatitis B vaccine and children,
30:49
Speaker 2: this is the canary in the coal mine. This is
30:52
Speaker 2: the indication that there is a warning sign about what
30:56
Speaker 2: the CDC. And again Kennedy has gotten in there. It
30:59
Speaker 2: is shaken the CDC. And this is causing great waves
31:02
Speaker 2: because the CDC, historically, no matter whether the president was
31:05
Speaker 2: a Republican or a Democrat, was nothing but a revolving
31:08
Speaker 2: door for people who worked in the drug industry, go
31:11
Speaker 2: to work for the drug industry, get put into the CDC,
31:14
Speaker 2: leave the CDC, go back to the drug industry, and
31:16
Speaker 2: so on. And they tended to rubber stamp everything that
31:19
Speaker 2: the drug industry put out with regard to vaccines or
31:22
Speaker 2: many other treatments. It set aside. But let me throw
31:25
Speaker 2: it in. One of the things that we learned early
31:29
Speaker 2: on with COVID, and doctors will tell you this, they
31:31
Speaker 2: noted that a whole lot of people who were getting
31:33
Speaker 2: really sick from COVID had lower levels of vitamin D
31:36
Speaker 2: in their bodies. I mean, it was picked up right away.
31:44
Speaker 2: I remember having a discussion with so I won't identify
31:46
Speaker 2: the prest somebody that I know about that. And this
31:52
Speaker 2: is somebody that was very, very skeptical of all the
31:56
Speaker 2: stuff that was coming from FAUCI and the CDC and
31:58
Speaker 2: all of this. And this person was saying to me,
32:03
Speaker 2: I mean, the vitamin D thing, if you wanted to
32:05
Speaker 2: do any one particular thing to avoid getting COVID. Making
32:08
Speaker 2: sure that you have enough vitamin D is such an
32:10
Speaker 2: important thing. And I said it was a female. I
32:13
Speaker 2: said to her, well, yeah, I think that word is out.
32:15
Speaker 2: I mean I know it. I mean somehow I was
32:19
Speaker 2: able to be exposed to that information. And in fact,
32:21
Speaker 2: nobody's ever disputed that shorted low levels of vitamin c D,
32:25
Speaker 2: just as B city at a number of other risk factors.
32:28
Speaker 2: What well, I'm just saying that I knew it, so
32:31
Speaker 2: I don't think it's being suppressed. And she said, you
32:33
Speaker 2: would not believe the number of people who don't know
32:35
Speaker 2: what the reality is. I don't ever recall the media
32:38
Speaker 2: pounding make sure your vitamin D levels are high enough.
32:41
Speaker 2: Why vitamin D is damn near free. It's generic. You
32:45
Speaker 2: go into the drug store like there's a house brand
32:47
Speaker 2: for CVS and Walgreens, and then others charge for it.
32:50
Speaker 2: And nobody's got a patent anymore on vitamin D. It's
32:52
Speaker 2: not free or anything. But it's nothing that the major
32:55
Speaker 2: drug companies are making any money off of. All these
32:57
Speaker 2: different drug companies manufacturer and charge what they can charge
32:59
Speaker 2: for et cetera. And the cost of it and so on.
33:02
Speaker 2: But none of the big drug companies are making a
33:04
Speaker 2: big profit off of it, So I get why they
33:06
Speaker 2: wouldn't be pushing it. But what's that? How is that
33:08
Speaker 2: an excuse for the media or public health divisions? All
33:11
Speaker 2: these public health offices across the United States. Why couldn't
33:13
Speaker 2: they be doing that. Why wasn't the CDC hammering it?
33:16
Speaker 2: Because the CDC is bought and paid for by the
33:18
Speaker 2: drug industry, at least the CDC that was in place
33:21
Speaker 2: Trump's first term, during Biden prior to that, Obama and
33:24
Speaker 2: so on. All Right, a quote. This quote is from
33:33
Speaker 2: a number of decades ago. It's it sounds like this
33:39
Speaker 2: is the prophet Isaiah for seeing and talking about something
33:42
Speaker 2: that would happen in the future that then happened. I'll
33:48
Speaker 2: tell you who the quote is from after I read
33:50
Speaker 2: the quote. It has to do with skepticism about creating
33:56
Speaker 2: a welfare program that is sufficient for a person to
34:03
Speaker 2: live on. If we don't want to destroy financially every
34:08
Speaker 2: city in the United States, we're going to have to
34:11
Speaker 2: get people off welfare. Welfare is not the answer. It
34:16
Speaker 2: destroys the individual, and it destroys the family. Now many
34:20
Speaker 2: of us Conservatives have been saying this for years, that
34:23
Speaker 2: long term welfare dependency is the same as an addiction,
34:29
Speaker 2: that it is not humanitarian to have somebody sucking on
34:31
Speaker 2: welfare for eight or nine years. If welfare is high
34:35
Speaker 2: enough that you can live on it, what's the incentive
34:37
Speaker 2: to get off of it and change your life and
34:39
Speaker 2: make yourself productive. I mean that conservative wo argue this forever.
34:43
Speaker 2: This statement, however, is it's nearly sixty years old. Not
34:46
Speaker 2: quite so. This was stated well back when welfare was
34:50
Speaker 2: in the stages of growing. You know who we gave
34:53
Speaker 2: that quote RFK Senior Bobby Kennedy Bobby Kennedy senior Darling
35:03
Speaker 2: of the left in that era, this was when there
35:07
Speaker 2: were some Democrats who actually had compassion. You know, Johnson
35:12
Speaker 2: created the Great Society that's in the welfare programs are
35:14
Speaker 2: being invented, and it was a great argument about the
35:17
Speaker 2: social safety net. And in that era, a lot of
35:19
Speaker 2: people were not getting by at all, and we created
35:22
Speaker 2: the welfare program for this. And what some people were
35:25
Speaker 2: arguing at the time is, yeah, but you can't you
35:28
Speaker 2: have to make it as a transitionary step for people
35:31
Speaker 2: that are in hard times that you can't let it
35:34
Speaker 2: become something that they suck off of forever. Well, they
35:37
Speaker 2: have sucked off of it forever, and now there were
35:40
Speaker 2: so many of them that you not only have all
35:43
Speaker 2: of the social problems with people who can live off
35:45
Speaker 2: the various welfare programs that are with there, but the
35:49
Speaker 2: problem that we're now seeing, particularly with the Somali situation.
35:52
Speaker 2: The more of these programs there are, the more they
35:55
Speaker 2: can be scammed. Remember that it's the same thing that
35:59
Speaker 2: I was staying with regard to the FDA and the
36:01
Speaker 2: drugs and the CDC and the drug companies and the vaccines.
36:05
Speaker 2: Every vaccine is sold by somebody. Every welfare program is
36:09
Speaker 2: administered by somebody, and for the cases of many of them,
36:12
Speaker 2: they're subcontracted out. The Fed's create a program and it's
36:15
Speaker 2: administered at the local level by an SDC or an
36:18
Speaker 2: organization like that. The money is being skimmed off the
36:21
Speaker 2: top right and left? Are you saying I'm skimming off
36:30
Speaker 2: the top? Mic who said that no is the Godfathers.
36:38
Speaker 2: It was the guy that the guy with the glasses
36:43
Speaker 2: who got moul green got shot in the glasses. Well,
36:47
Speaker 2: I mean that's a Michael Corleone came out and tried
36:49
Speaker 2: to take over his casino, and you're not making any money, said,
36:51
Speaker 2: are you choosing me? A skimming off? Of course, that's
36:53
Speaker 2: what the mob was doing, was skimming off the top.
37:00
Speaker 2: That's on all of our welfare programs. That's being excited.
37:02
Speaker 2: It's skimmed off the top, off the middle, and off
37:04
Speaker 2: of everything else. And you know, you go back to
37:10
Speaker 2: and I've talked about Reagan talked about this a lot
37:12
Speaker 2: a lot of people who are liberal, you know, back
37:14
Speaker 2: in the day. In the case of Reagan, he was
37:16
Speaker 2: a union guy in the fifties and the sixties. He
37:18
Speaker 2: came over much of what the Democratic Party was then
37:22
Speaker 2: basic level compassion, also included standing up for the working
37:26
Speaker 2: man and so on. It was a way for people
37:29
Speaker 2: to get ahead. What the Democrats have become now is
37:33
Speaker 2: out and out Marxist, in which they want everything to
37:36
Speaker 2: be given away and nobody to work at anything, to
37:38
Speaker 2: take away and confiscate everything that we all have, and
37:41
Speaker 2: the end result would be a welfare state on steroids
37:45
Speaker 2: where everybody is in the same You'll never get ahead,
37:48
Speaker 2: You're just gonna be stuck in the same thing that
37:50
Speaker 2: Marxism always creates, which is the woman in Russia standing
37:53
Speaker 2: for nine hours in the potato line. I use that
37:56
Speaker 2: point all the time, but that is the answer. It's
37:58
Speaker 2: something else. There's I don't know if it's potatoes, but
38:00
Speaker 2: they're standing in line in Cuba for nine hours to
38:02
Speaker 2: every single venezuela. They're standing in line for hours for
38:05
Speaker 2: that because the system doesn't work, and when there's no
38:10
Speaker 2: way out of it, at least in our welfare system,
38:12
Speaker 2: there is a way out. You just have to decide
38:15
Speaker 2: that you're going to give up the dol that you're
38:17
Speaker 2: living off of, in which you get to set on
38:18
Speaker 2: your asshole and you get all of these payments. That
38:21
Speaker 2: requires a little bit of an initiative. When you get
38:23
Speaker 2: to Marxism, though, there's no way to get out of it,
38:25
Speaker 2: because it punishes edyone who tries to succeed or escape
38:29
Speaker 2: the dole at all. This brings me to the perfect
38:40
Speaker 2: example of it, the Minnesota case Alicia Finley recent column
38:48
Speaker 2: in The Wall Street Jennal diagnosis rates of autism. Let
38:56
Speaker 2: me give you my transition to this, the Minnesota some
39:00
Speaker 2: Malli scandal. The point that I was trying to make
39:02
Speaker 2: here and I got into the column a little quickly,
39:06
Speaker 2: is a proxy for understanding every government welfare program, the
39:12
Speaker 2: Democrats don't even want to expose the abuses in it
39:15
Speaker 2: because the constituency is the people that are abusing it,
39:19
Speaker 2: not the people that are supposed to receive the somalis
39:23
Speaker 2: would be the ones in that case that we're skimming
39:25
Speaker 2: off the top. Now let's go to everything else. Here's
39:29
Speaker 2: the connection. I've been talking for some time about how
39:34
Speaker 2: it is that something as rare as autism has become
39:39
Speaker 2: so common. I think it's a combination of two things.
39:42
Speaker 2: As I've said many times, I think a lot of
39:44
Speaker 2: people are being described as autistic. Whod weren't being described
39:46
Speaker 2: as autistic before? But secondly, I think there is an
39:49
Speaker 2: increase in autism. And my own belief is that a
39:53
Speaker 2: lot of the things that Kennedy and some of the
39:55
Speaker 2: others are pointing to probably have a contributing factor. But
39:57
Speaker 2: I think the biggest component that's out there all the
40:00
Speaker 2: drugs that were pumping into all of our bodies. I
40:02
Speaker 2: think that it is numbing down people's minds, and in
40:04
Speaker 2: some cases this may be passed in utero. A mother
40:08
Speaker 2: that's on ninety seven different pills that affect her brain
40:11
Speaker 2: and affect her moods are screwing up the brains of
40:13
Speaker 2: these kids who become functioning somewhere as autistic. But does
40:18
Speaker 2: that mean that every single kid that's being diagnosed as
40:23
Speaker 2: autistic is autistic? Which brings us down to the friendly
40:25
Speaker 2: column Let me pick up there. Diagnosis rates of autism
40:28
Speaker 2: among children have more than tripled over the past fifteen years.
40:32
Speaker 2: One reason which Minnesota's welfare scandal lays bare with shocking
40:36
Speaker 2: details is Medicaid fraud and abuse. So we think of
40:40
Speaker 2: Medicaid fraud and abuse. One part of it was scammed
40:42
Speaker 2: by Somali's in Minnesota. Don't think that all components of
40:47
Speaker 2: the welfare fraud program aren't being scammed. Back to the column.
40:51
Speaker 2: Medicaid pays healthcare providers big box to diagnose and three
40:54
Speaker 2: children with autism, sometimes tens of thousands of dollars a
40:58
Speaker 2: month for a single child. Yet states rarely verify that
41:03
Speaker 2: kids who are diagnosed actually meet the medical criteria for
41:07
Speaker 2: the disorder, or that they get appropriate treatment from qualified specialists.
41:11
Speaker 2: The result, children covered by Medicaid or the government run
41:15
Speaker 2: children's health insurance program are two point five times as
41:19
Speaker 2: likely as those with private coverage to be diagnosed with autism.
41:22
Speaker 2: All right, I hope you didn't miss that point. If
41:25
Speaker 2: you did, I'm gonna bail you up by explaining it.
41:28
Speaker 2: Let's suppose your health care coverage is private insurance. Now,
41:32
Speaker 2: let's suppose your health care coverage is Medicaid. If it's Medicaid,
41:37
Speaker 2: you're two and a half times are likely to have
41:38
Speaker 2: your kid being diagnosed as artistic. Why Because Medicaid is
41:43
Speaker 2: scammed more easily than the private health care insurance. You
41:47
Speaker 2: can get on the private health care insurance fit denying
41:49
Speaker 2: coverage and all sorts of things. And clearly that's a problem.
41:52
Speaker 2: But one of the reasons that they do so is
41:53
Speaker 2: that they don't want to pay out money right and
41:55
Speaker 2: left for something that isn't a real problem. If Medicaid
42:01
Speaker 2: is scanned, Okay, this kid's diagnosed as autistic, we're gonna
42:04
Speaker 2: spend one hundred thousand dollars a month on them. That's
42:06
Speaker 2: somebody that's getting that one hundred thousand dollars to provide
42:09
Speaker 2: the treatment. Back to the column. In twenty fourteen, the
42:15
Speaker 2: Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services began requiring state Medicare
42:18
Speaker 2: Medicaid programs to cover autism therapy such as applied behavioral
42:23
Speaker 2: analysis or ABA, a technique that uses positive reinforcement to
42:27
Speaker 2: improve social and communication skills. All right, somebody, you think
42:31
Speaker 2: that's a good thing. Maybe you think it's a bad thing.
42:33
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what it also is the moment that
42:35
Speaker 2: they approved that, all sorts of people went into the
42:38
Speaker 2: field to do that. The government says we're going to
42:42
Speaker 2: cover such and such. All of a sudden, people come
42:45
Speaker 2: out and say, I'll be the one that provides such
42:47
Speaker 2: and such. Think of all the solar energy companies that
42:53
Speaker 2: popped up starting fifty degree with the Green New Deal
42:56
Speaker 2: and all of that. I think I'll go into that business. Yeah,
42:59
Speaker 2: I bet you will. Since the government is out suddenly
43:02
Speaker 2: saying that we're going to pay for this, Obamacare plans
43:05
Speaker 2: also required to cover such therapy as an essential benefit. Previously,
43:10
Speaker 2: the responsibility providing such treatment fell mainly on public schools.
43:14
Speaker 2: Many lacked the expertise and were happy to shift the
43:16
Speaker 2: cost of federal taxpayers, which cover between fifty and seventy
43:19
Speaker 2: five percent of Medicaid bills for most maneficiaries. Autism behavioral
43:23
Speaker 2: services quote comprised one of the fastest growing healthcare industries
43:27
Speaker 2: in the United States. The Massachusetts Offits of the Inspector
43:30
Speaker 2: General noted last year in an audit of the state's
43:32
Speaker 2: Medicaid program, there is an increased need for vigilance in
43:35
Speaker 2: program integrity to keep pay to the growing number of
43:38
Speaker 2: ABA providers. In Minnesota, the number of ought and I'm
43:41
Speaker 2: discussing you could go to every part of the welfare
43:44
Speaker 2: program in Minnesota and see it abused. That Somali thing
43:47
Speaker 2: was not a one off. The somalis merely sized up
43:50
Speaker 2: here in Minnesota that the welfare system pays for anything,
43:53
Speaker 2: So they grabbed into the area of COVID. Don't think
43:57
Speaker 2: that that doesn't mean the timb Walls and the other
43:59
Speaker 2: lefties over there haven't left the barn door open in
44:01
Speaker 2: every other part of that program. In Minnesota, the number
44:06
Speaker 2: of autism providers soared seven hundred percent. The people who've
44:11
Speaker 2: treated autism soared seven hundred percent. The minute the government
44:14
Speaker 2: started paying people to provide treatment for autism, and payments
44:18
Speaker 2: to them increased three thousand percent between twenty eighteen and
44:21
Speaker 2: twenty three, that's five years. Payments increased three thousand percent
44:27
Speaker 2: in Minnesota in five years to providers of autism treatment.
44:32
Speaker 2: You can see why there are a whole lot of
44:34
Speaker 2: people who don't want Kennedy to come up with a
44:36
Speaker 2: cure for autism. In order to get paid, you need
44:40
Speaker 2: to have the disease out there. You need to have
44:42
Speaker 2: the threat of the disease out there. Go back to
44:45
Speaker 2: my earlier point, how did the edge help b vitis
44:48
Speaker 2: get on the childhood vaccine thing? Some drug companies get
44:51
Speaker 2: to sell it. The story goes on. You know, everybody
45:00
Speaker 2: hears the rule follow the money. Yet I think despite
45:06
Speaker 2: the fact that everybody hears that rule, people don't realize
45:09
Speaker 2: that they have to follow the money in almost everything
45:13
Speaker 2: in life. One of the great changes that has occurred
45:19
Speaker 2: in my lifetime in the American Left is they have
45:23
Speaker 2: gone from being extremely suspicious from big corporations and how
45:27
Speaker 2: they make money two shills for the same big corporations
45:33
Speaker 2: and how they make money. How the left has hoard
45:37
Speaker 2: itself out to the drug companies, an entity that only
45:40
Speaker 2: a decade ago they have hated, has been a remarkable thing.
45:46
Speaker 2: It is also coincided with the drug companies bankrolling Democratic politicians,
45:51
Speaker 2: who then turn around in bankroll lefty social service and
45:54
Speaker 2: advocacy organizations. Always follow the money this is the Market
46:00
Speaker 2: Belling podcast. All right, that's it for today's podcast. Thursday
46:07
Speaker 2: podcast coming out early afternoon, and that's the one in
46:09
Speaker 2: which we will have our weekly football preview and football picks.
46:13
Speaker 2: And I actually won my pick last week. That's a
46:16
Speaker 2: rare occurrence. It hadn't happened it seven weeks. I tied
46:19
Speaker 2: one in law five weeks. I think actually won my
46:22
Speaker 2: pick you, Oh yeah, that's right. Paul took the Beers.
46:27
Speaker 2: I think it was six and a half in the
46:29
Speaker 2: Packers one by seven. You know, seven point thing is
46:32
Speaker 2: so tricky. I mean, a close game doesn't necessarily have
46:35
Speaker 2: to have a close number. I mean one score could
46:38
Speaker 2: be one point or six or seven points and so on.
46:40
Speaker 2: All right, talk to you soon. Bye.
