0:02
Speaker 1: What the healthcare system should do is not just pay
0:04
Speaker 1: the bills, which would make you so healthy that you
0:07
Speaker 1: flourished in life and you would engage the workplace.
0:11
Speaker 2: We'll do it making mornings great again. We'll do the
0:13
Speaker 2: first thing today. Do it on the tunk Media and
0:16
Speaker 2: Apple by Joe Thomas.
0:17
Speaker 3: We'll do it.
0:18
Speaker 4: Line Jord said, steal men.
0:21
Speaker 5: Have a day. You think we're live this morning, Please.
0:24
Speaker 6: For work when the sun comes ups to school.
0:31
Speaker 7: All the chos said in need am into that. The
0:34
Speaker 7: one that Joe's smiled, he only as.
0:41
Speaker 5: Joe, thank you for joining me on this Saturday morning
0:44
Speaker 5: and allowing me to be a service to you. Four
0:49
Speaker 5: three four eight eight two four two one seven. That
0:52
Speaker 5: is the phone number or text message hotline you can
0:55
Speaker 5: do either call in or text message to us. They
1:00
Speaker 5: and join us and opine on what's going on and
1:06
Speaker 5: how the news is impacting you where you are. And
1:10
Speaker 5: that's the important bit here is that you should be
1:14
Speaker 5: engaged in this. You are the single most important local
1:17
Speaker 5: aspect of your radio station while you bask there in
1:21
Speaker 5: either the amplitude or frequency modulation goodness of this Saturday morning.
1:27
Speaker 5: So much to get into. Eric Holder dragged into the
1:30
Speaker 5: news by me nobody else talking about Eric Holder and
1:35
Speaker 5: what he's doing behind the scenes in all of the redistricting,
1:40
Speaker 5: especially in the Blue States. Barack Obama in California campaigning
1:44
Speaker 5: for Prop fifty. Also, they can rejigger all these districts
1:49
Speaker 5: and violate all of their constitutions. If you ever wondered
1:53
Speaker 5: why progressive prosecutors ignore things like theft and assault car
2:00
Speaker 5: theft and burglary, it's because that's who they are. They
2:06
Speaker 5: ignore the law. The law is just an impediment at worst,
2:10
Speaker 5: and at best it's a weapon they can use against
2:14
Speaker 5: a political opponent. Think about attorneys general like the one
2:18
Speaker 5: running for Attorney general in Virginia that wants to shoot
2:22
Speaker 5: his opponents rather than sway them with his brilliance. Email
2:30
Speaker 5: here Terry, listening to us in Selden, Long Island. Hey Terry,

2:42
Speaker 5: were going to float an idea to change the name
2:45
Speaker 5: of the town into Zelden, New York. No, nobody here,
2:49
Speaker 5: I don't know. Let me know if there's still that
2:52
Speaker 5: move to try to re brand the town name Zelden,
2:58
Speaker 5: Long Island because as there he said, Hey, voting early, voting,

4:13
Speaker 5: to be First Lady Jill Biden's press secretary, and he
4:17

4:24
Speaker 5: it instead, he said it was probably needed. Trump administration
4:30
Speaker 5: is warning that it cannot use emergency funds to pay
4:33

Speaker 5: appointed Steve Fagan, career Foreign Service officer as the civilian
4:51
Speaker 5: lead for the center working to implement the peace deal
4:55
Speaker 5: in Gaza. Speaking of border skirmishes, dug Ford, Ontario Premier
5:02
Speaker 5: admitted they were the ones behind the faked up Ronald

5:58
Speaker 5: first things on this Saturday morning here on the talk
6:01
Speaker 5: media network.
6:10
Speaker 9: Hi, this is Bud Foster, co host of Foster and
6:12
Speaker 9: Friends and former Virginia Tech football coach.
6:15
Speaker 5: When I brought the.
6:16
Speaker 9: Fame lunch Fail to our team, it symbolized teamwork. The
6:19
Speaker 9: word win stood for what's important. Now, the Lunch Pail
6:22
Speaker 9: Defense Foundation realizes the importance of helping others. Our foundation
6:27
Speaker 9: is a nonprofit corporation that helps fund academic scholarship for
6:30
Speaker 9: eligible high school students. Since two thousand and nine, the
6:33
Speaker 9: Lunch Pail Defense Foundation is raised nearly four hundred thousand

7:02
Speaker 3: Did you know that healthy arteries make a gas?
7:06
Speaker 10: Yes?
7:07
Speaker 3: Actually three known gas is. I'm doctor Mitch and Nitric
7:12
Speaker 3: oxide is a gas that's readily made all day long
7:17
Speaker 3: to keep our arteries open by relaxing the blood vessel walls.
7:22
Speaker 3: By doing this, our circulation is increased, bringing blood, oxygen,
7:27
Speaker 3: and nutrients to every part of your body. Both age
7:31
Speaker 3: and poor diet can lead to a loss of this
7:35
Speaker 3: precious gas, and in turn, blood pressure can go up,
7:38
Speaker 3: energy can go down, and you can get tingling in
7:41
Speaker 3: your hands and feet. Well, our product, Ultimate nitric oxide
7:46
Speaker 3: can easily help fix this lack of nitric oxide. Go
7:50
Speaker 3: to total Wellness dot com. That's total wellness dot com

Speaker 3: where we are helping you to look good, feel good,
7:57
Speaker 3: and enjoy total wellness. Considered by most, Optimized curcumin is
8:06
Speaker 3: one of the few bioavailable and highly absorbable curcumin products
8:11
Speaker 3: on the market. Hi, I'm doctor Mitch. Since most chronic
8:15
Speaker 3: diseases have inflammation, our optimized curcumin seems to be a
8:20
Speaker 3: perfect addition to any nutritional program. It makes sense to
8:25
Speaker 3: me that preventing or reducing inflammation is a key component
8:30
Speaker 3: to our overall health. The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin
8:34
Speaker 3: can decrease swelling and inflammation, has antioxidant properties, and research
8:40
Speaker 3: suggests that kurcumin can prevent cancer or at least slow
8:44
Speaker 3: the spread of cancer, and in many instances, make chemotherapy
8:48
Speaker 3: more effective. It protects our healthy cells even from radiation.

9:16
Speaker 11: personal information. Do not fall for these tricks. These calls
9:21
Speaker 11: are not from US. Real solid security employees will never
9:25
Speaker 11: threaten you for information or money. If you receive a
9:29
Speaker 11: call like this, hang up. Never give the call of
9:33
Speaker 11: your personal information like your Social Security number or bank account,
9:37
Speaker 11: or send money in any form cash, gift cards, wire
9:41

Speaker 12: Hi, everybody, I'm Jack Hannah. It's always a boy growing
10:01
Speaker 12: up on a farm in Tennessee. I've been fascinated with animals.
10:04
Speaker 12: I'm not only in alle of their beauty and kindness,
10:06
Speaker 12: but also their tireless work ethic. Just look at the
10:08
Speaker 12: birds who gather supplies to build nests, or Swiss foxes
10:12
Speaker 12: who work hard to provide for their young, or penguins
10:15
Speaker 12: who travel up to five hundred miles to secure food
10:17
Speaker 12: for their families, or bush babies whose impressive jump allows
10:21
Speaker 12: them to navigate the trees and the wild in search
10:23
Speaker 12: of fruit. This remarkable work ethic is shared by our
10:25
Speaker 12: best friends, the canines. We know dogs are wonderful pets
10:29
Speaker 12: at home, but because of their acute senses, they also
10:32
Speaker 12: perform life saving work every day. Dogs keep us safe
10:35
Speaker 12: at airports. They comfort returning veterans, some of whom suffer
10:38
Speaker 12: from PTS. They work with diabetics, alerting them when there's
10:41
Speaker 12: a change.
10:41
Speaker 13: In their blood chemistry.
10:43
Speaker 12: Working dogs have a variety of highly trained roles that
10:45
Speaker 12: contribute to society and help those in need. So please
10:48
Speaker 12: join me an American Humane and supporting our heroic working

Speaker 20: first to notice when a veteran you love has been

13:08
Speaker 3: It is the challenge of p.
13:11
Speaker 13: From the home of the First Amendment. First thing today, what.
13:37
Speaker 1: The healthcare system should do is not just pay the bills,
13:40
Speaker 1: which would make you so healthy that you flourish in
13:43
Speaker 1: life and you would engage the workplace.
13:46
Speaker 5: That's doctor Mehmedaz was brought onto Fox Business and the
13:50
Speaker 5: premise of talking about what President Trump is getting at
13:53
Speaker 5: I still and his visit did not dissuade me from
13:56
Speaker 5: the idea that Senate a majority leader John Thune is
14:01
Speaker 5: going to cave on the Obamacare subsidies. The subsidies are
14:07
Speaker 5: again driving up costs. And he did say during his
14:13
Speaker 5: chat that fifty percent of the people that are on
14:16
Speaker 5: these plans don't claim anything, but they're on them because
14:22
Speaker 5: they have to be on them. And understand that even
14:27
Speaker 5: though there's no penalty currently no financial penalty for not
14:32
Speaker 5: being on the patient protection of an Affordable Care Act
14:35
Speaker 5: or having some healthcare insurance whatsoever, if you tell on
14:40
Speaker 5: your tax form that you do have insurance and you don't,
14:45
Speaker 5: that's twenty years in federal prison. I know you're like, hey,
14:49
Speaker 5: that's just I mean, it's lying on a federal form,
14:54
Speaker 5: it's lying under oath. You've signed it. That's your oath
14:57
Speaker 5: that the statements are true. You've lied to a federal officer.
15:03
Speaker 5: That's ten to twenty eleven worth, or at least five
15:06
Speaker 5: to ten in Woolworth. Gold and silver are friends at
15:12
Speaker 5: jcsgold dot com. Whatever the price of healthcare is, I'm
15:18
Speaker 5: sure you could use some gold or silver more good
15:22
Speaker 5: buying opportunities or on sale silver that had peaked out
15:26
Speaker 5: at like fifty three dollars is now forty eight sixty
15:30
Speaker 5: this morning. If you go to jcsgold dot com. You'll
15:33
Speaker 5: see that gold is down to forty one twelve. I mean,
15:36
Speaker 5: it has you down to four one hundred and twelve
15:39
Speaker 5: dollars announced, both of them down a bit since yesterday
15:44
Speaker 5: on a quite a roller coaster. As I said to
15:47
Speaker 5: my friend James Lucke, fourth generation of the family business
15:51
Speaker 5: at JCS Gold, keep your arms and hands inside the
15:56
Speaker 5: roller coaster until it comes to a complete stop. Holy cow.
16:00
Speaker 5: But but that's the thing. I mean, this is why
16:02
Speaker 5: you buy and hold, right, This isn't this is yeah,
16:07
Speaker 5: that's exactly right.
16:08
Speaker 21: This is you know where I don't have the stomach
16:11
Speaker 21: for the roller coaster, that's for sure.
16:12
Speaker 5: That's why I really try not.
16:14
Speaker 21: To pay attention to the little dips and the runs
16:16
Speaker 21: of just buying over time. And you know that's what
16:19
Speaker 21: we talk to our clients about every day. We just
16:21
Speaker 21: constantly buy whenever you're ready, whenever your portfolio is ready.
16:27
Speaker 21: Then you can just add to it, and you can
16:29
Speaker 21: cost average in you can get some at a discount,
16:32
Speaker 21: and you can get some ounces a little bit higher.
16:35
Speaker 21: But ultimately you're you're building your wealth and you're you're
16:38
Speaker 21: building it with gold and silver, and that's the main
16:40
Speaker 21: thing that's.
16:41
Speaker 5: It and that, and it's something that's always been there
16:44
Speaker 5: and that's the surety of it. So I appreciate that.
16:48
Speaker 5: And of course right now you can do it a
16:49
Speaker 5: little bit more easily than you could last week because
16:52
Speaker 5: you're getting it at a discount, is what they say
16:55
Speaker 5: in the retail establishments, right right, James.
17:00
Speaker 21: After forget it for a little bit cheaper today. It's
17:03
Speaker 21: always it's always a good thing to take advantage of
17:05
Speaker 21: while while these prices last.
17:07
Speaker 5: Jcsgold dot com you can order anytime over the weekend
17:11
Speaker 5: and James gets onto the shipping of it on Monday morning.
17:15
Speaker 5: So go take a look some of the neat stuff
17:17
Speaker 5: they've got there. No to balloons yet, but if it's
17:19
Speaker 5: private Saturday for you, anyway, you can pretend or maybe
17:22
Speaker 5: that's the costume are prepared to be boarded. Maybe. So
17:26
Speaker 5: anyway back to doctor Oz, and doctor Oz is going
17:32
Speaker 5: to go into the basket this week of Trump officials
17:36
Speaker 5: who are concerning me. And I'm not doing this just
17:41
Speaker 5: for the shock value of it, but we need to
17:45
Speaker 5: get the government out of our lives, not further into it,
17:49
Speaker 5: or do we because the argument for what doctor Oz
17:53
Speaker 5: is saying is this is what the American people want.
17:56
Speaker 5: They want the government to do these things. We vote
18:00
Speaker 5: did for it. We want that.
18:02
Speaker 1: What the healthcare system should do is not just pay
18:04
Speaker 1: the bills.
18:04
Speaker 5: What do you mean, not just pay the bills? Government
18:07
Speaker 5: should not be paying the bills at all. But maybe
18:11
Speaker 5: I'm being pedantic about it.
18:12
Speaker 1: What the healthcare system should do is not just pay
18:14
Speaker 1: the bills, which would make you so healthy that you
18:17
Speaker 1: flourish in life and you woult to engage the workplace.
18:22
Speaker 5: We should make you healthy. And I know, I know,
18:28
Speaker 5: I know, I know. We have issues with the red
18:33
Speaker 5: flags that Pam Bondi enacted when she was Florida's AG.
18:39
Speaker 5: I have big issues with Brendan Carr, the FCC commissioner,
18:43
Speaker 5: because he views your license to broadcast as some grant
18:48
Speaker 5: from the lords and ladies of the land, instead of
18:55
Speaker 5: the deed filed with the government to protect my mind,
19:00
Speaker 5: broadcast position on the dial, my storefront. They and and
19:07
Speaker 5: the perfunctory idea that the government gives you. This stuff
19:11
Speaker 5: has become so prevalent that Republicans and Democrats and alike
19:16
Speaker 5: are infected with this to a point where I don't
19:20
Speaker 5: believe you can convince them otherwise. And that's dangerous because
19:28
Speaker 5: you know, what we're looking at is a country that
19:30
Speaker 5: can't afford this idea anymore. You know, when when the when?
19:36
Speaker 5: And I know what he's saying, and memin Oz is saying,
19:39
Speaker 5: we're gonna We're going to make this a conservative nationalized
19:43
Speaker 5: healthcare system.
19:44
Speaker 1: What the healthcare system should do is not just pay
19:46
Speaker 1: the bills.
19:48
Speaker 5: No, what the healthcare system should do is not pay
19:51
Speaker 5: the bills federally, because that's how we wind up here.
19:57
Speaker 5: And I know, I know it's Trump. Don't be critic Trump.
20:01
Speaker 5: What do you Nick Fointes or Laura Lumer or No.
20:04
Speaker 5: I'm just saying that if it's wrong under Barack Obama,
20:09
Speaker 5: it's also wrong under Donald Trump. If surveillance of your
20:14
Speaker 5: enemies is wrong under Barack Obama, it's wrong if any
20:18
Speaker 5: other president, George W. Bush, Ronald Wilson, Reagan, whatever it
20:24
Speaker 5: may be. And I'm not trying to say he's wrong
20:28
Speaker 5: for this. I'm not trying to cost people the midterm elections.
20:32
Speaker 5: I'm trying to be honest with you. You're the only
20:35
Speaker 5: person in this I give a crap about your healthcare costs.
20:41
Speaker 5: Your pharmaceutical costs are all too high because of all
20:46
Speaker 5: these subsidies. I wrote a piece for the Daily Signal
20:54
Speaker 5: talking about Barack Obama coming here to Virginia to campaign

Speaker 5: victory of David. I want to get to the victor
21:07
Speaker 5: at Davis Hansen piece in a little bit. But I
21:14
Speaker 5: take a part her three step plan for governing Virginia,
21:19
Speaker 5: and all three parts are government subsidies. The prices and
21:26
Speaker 5: the costs are never going to come down. Reality is
21:30
Speaker 5: never going to set back into this marketplace as long
21:33
Speaker 5: as we have this cronyism. This isn't capitalism, this isn't
21:38
Speaker 5: the free market. This is everything that the Democrats claim
21:46
Speaker 5: that they rail against, and by claim, I mean stand
21:50
Speaker 5: there and say they're against it while participating and in
21:53
Speaker 5: some cases inventing it out of whole cloth. That's why
21:56
Speaker 5: they need to rejigger the elections so they can get
21:58
Speaker 5: back into power.

Speaker 6: Today's modern vehicle, whether it's a car, suv, or light truck,
23:14
Speaker 6: is designed with a specific fuel in mind. Read your
23:16
Speaker 6: owner's manual. What octane rating does the vehicle manufacturer call for?
23:20
Speaker 6: That's what you should use, But there are exceptions to
23:23
Speaker 6: the rule. Many high end or luxury vehicles call for
23:26
Speaker 6: premium or higher octane fuel, and the reason for this
23:29
Speaker 6: is not just due to the octane rating. There are
23:31
Speaker 6: better fuel system cleaners in premium fuels. Gasoline companies know too,
23:35
Speaker 6: the vehicles that run on premium won't perform as well
23:38
Speaker 6: with carbon deposits, so they pack more cleaning power into
23:41
Speaker 6: their premium fuels than their regular blend. If you rotate
23:44
Speaker 6: your fuel choices around, say every third tank full, you
23:46
Speaker 6: may find better performance and miles per gallon because you
23:50
Speaker 6: are cleaning your engine and fuel system while you drive.
23:53

24:18
Speaker 3: optimized curcumin seems to be a perfect addition to any
24:22
Speaker 3: nutritional program. It makes sense to me that preventing or
24:26
Speaker 3: reducing inflammation is a key component to our overall health.
24:31
Speaker 3: The Mayo Clinic found that kurcumin can decrease swelling and inflammation,
24:36
Speaker 3: has antioxidant properties, and research suggests that kurcumin can prevent
24:41
Speaker 3: cancer or at least slow the spread of cancer, and
24:45
Speaker 3: in many instances, make chemotherapy more effective. It protects our

Speaker 13: But from the home of the first amendments, first thing today.
28:15
Speaker 10: Doctor didn't even news a gotta case loving you.
28:28
Speaker 1: What the helpful system should do is not just pay
28:30
Speaker 1: the bills, which would make you so healthy that you
28:33
Speaker 1: flourish in life and you want to engage the workplace.
28:37
Speaker 5: That's good because we now have technology invented here in
28:41
Speaker 5: our flagship area of Central Virginia. University of Virginia in
28:45
Speaker 5: an effort to sniff out those evil, murderous COVID germs spreaders,
28:53
Speaker 5: super spreaders. They invented, and it exists. It's now commercially available.
29:01
Speaker 5: Let's call it sniffer technology. It actually scans your affluent.
29:07
Speaker 5: They installed this into the University of Virginia dormitoriums and
29:12
Speaker 5: apartment complexes so that you could monitor the wastes, find
29:22
Speaker 5: out who's number one with number two, and so it
29:26
Speaker 5: would scan the evacuations to see if you had COVID.
29:34
Speaker 5: And as the doctors who patented this and are making
29:38
Speaker 5: a good living off of it said, you could use
29:41
Speaker 5: it to program it to scan for anything, high blood pressure,
29:47
Speaker 5: a couple of extra beers. I mean, it's only a step.
29:53
Speaker 5: Remember when Sarah Palin called them death panels and Paul Krugman,
29:58
Speaker 5: the economic architect of the Affordable care acts that they're
30:02
Speaker 5: not death panels. There are no death panels in Obamacare.
30:07
Speaker 5: I mean, there's advisability of care panels. He said that
30:12
Speaker 5: will decide whether a patient should get or not receive
30:16
Speaker 5: some particularly expensive treatment, quoting him here on a visit
30:20
Speaker 5: to ABC's This Week back in twenty ten. But they
30:28
Speaker 5: are not called death panels. There's nothing in the Affordable
30:33
Speaker 5: Care Act called a death panel. They're just called advisability
30:36
Speaker 5: of care panels and understands several things about vaccines and
30:41
Speaker 5: government mandated health care and government subsidized insurance care. So
30:47
Speaker 5: you have to get all the vaccines and all the
30:49
Speaker 5: boosters so that the insurance company doesn't back out of
30:53
Speaker 5: covering you for some medical condition. If you get the
30:58
Speaker 5: flu and you didn't get the flu shot, there are
31:00
Speaker 5: insurance policies out there that will bail on you. Not
31:03
Speaker 5: that you necessarily would be asking your doctor to care
31:07
Speaker 5: for you in the flu, but if you have an
31:09
Speaker 5: acute case and it becomes walking pneumonia and you need
31:13
Speaker 5: to be hospitalized, and you're on your way to Stonybrook
31:16
Speaker 5: right now to be hospitalized. See what I did there,
31:20
Speaker 5: Long Island. Or you're on your way to Centaur of
31:26
Speaker 5: Rockingham Memorial Hospital and your insurance company said did you
31:36
Speaker 5: get the flu shot? And you say no, they said, well,
31:40
Speaker 5: we're sorry you got the flu and you didn't get
31:41
Speaker 5: the flu shot, as it states on page seven hundred
31:45
Speaker 5: and three of your Healthcare Insurance Policy Writers sub Section
31:49
Speaker 5: b A, And it's a back door for them to
31:55
Speaker 5: duck out of That's what they're there for. You know,
31:59
Speaker 5: those giant offices that insurance companies are full of, they're
32:02
Speaker 5: not full of people coming up with new ways to
32:05
Speaker 5: care for you. They're trying to make sure that their liability,
32:10
Speaker 5: their exposure is minimum. That if you don't live up
32:16
Speaker 5: to all the provisos in your insurance policy, as Willy
32:22
Speaker 5: Wonka said to Charlie Bunkett, you get nothing. That's why.
32:31
Speaker 5: And again not a flaw but a feature, because then
32:33
Speaker 5: we start saying, you know, Bernie Sanders would never say
32:36
Speaker 5: this to me.
32:37
Speaker 1: Oh really, what the healthcare system should do is not
32:42
Speaker 1: just pay the bills, which would make you so healthy
32:45
Speaker 1: that you flourish in life, and you would engage the workplace.
32:50
Speaker 5: Make you so healthy. No, I'm not saying you shouldn't
32:54
Speaker 5: buy your own personal agenda. Be healthy comes in. Dean
33:02
Speaker 5: writes in Joe, isn't it possible that doctor Oz is
33:09
Speaker 5: selling the idea so that the left doesn't have this
33:13
Speaker 5: to campaign on and then they will repeal and replace.
33:19
Speaker 5: But you see, if the mindset is the government is
33:22
Speaker 5: there to make things less expensive by subsidizing them, that's
33:27
Speaker 5: how we get here. This was from yesterday's program, I
33:32
Speaker 5: asked former Chair of the House Freedom Concus Bob Good. Bob,
33:37
Speaker 5: last question for you actually comes in as a text message.
33:40
Speaker 5: Does this have to do with Kevin McCarthy's power over No,
33:44
Speaker 5: that's not the question I wanted to know right now,
33:46
Speaker 5: said no, no, No, that wasn't the question. I want to
33:48
Speaker 5: do it again. I wanted to get his bit on
33:53
Speaker 5: the Affordable Care Act and whether or not the government
33:56
Speaker 5: was going to subsidize and kay, I appreciate your visit, sir,
34:01
Speaker 5: and we'll talk to you again. You got the wrong clip.
34:06
Speaker 5: I think it was the question before. That is what
34:08
Speaker 5: I wanted is his answer on whether or not Republicans
34:12
Speaker 5: were going to cave on the Affordable Camera And.
34:16
Speaker 24: It's definitely the Republicans favor. The race has clearly tightened.
34:19
Speaker 24: All the polls seemed to end well. Democrats are going
34:23
Speaker 24: to try to wield partisan power to redraw the districts.
34:29
Speaker 5: Now you completely lost it. Go get go back to
34:32
Speaker 5: the drawing board and find me the clip where we
34:33
Speaker 5: were talking about his view on whether it's not irrelevant
34:39
Speaker 5: per se. But you got me the wrong clip from
34:41
Speaker 5: Bob Good. But your your point is well made. That
34:45
Speaker 5: an effort to keep the Democrats from demagoguing this coming
34:49
Speaker 5: to the mid terms. It is possible. Anything is possible
34:54
Speaker 5: that they do want to do or repeal and replace,
34:56
Speaker 5: just like I said, though when that became possible, they didn't.
35:03
Speaker 5: So you have to know them by your actions. And
35:05
Speaker 5: do I think that the government could install sniffers into
35:09
Speaker 5: all of your sewer systems? Sure? Absolutely? Ask anyone who
35:15
Speaker 5: had to put a smart meter on their house. Oh,
35:19
Speaker 5: I went there, didn't I? I brought up the smart meters,
35:22
Speaker 5: didn't I? Yeah, I had to put a smart meter
35:25
Speaker 5: on your house so that the government can kind of
35:28
Speaker 5: check in on what temperatures you have part of your
35:33
Speaker 5: Internet of things? Right, did you get a choice in
35:40
Speaker 5: whether or not you had a smart meter on your
35:43
Speaker 5: electric system? So when they say to you and I
35:52
Speaker 5: live on a septic system, I don't have government sewers.
35:55
Speaker 5: I have my own septic tank. What about the permitting process?
36:01
Speaker 5: I have permits from the state and the city and
36:04
Speaker 5: the county. What if the county inspector came and said,
36:09
Speaker 5: your septic tank has to have one of these sniffers
36:13
Speaker 5: on it because we need to monitor if you're staying healthy.
36:23
Speaker 5: Is that a worthwhile thing to exchange for the government
36:30
Speaker 5: to pick up the tab sometimes, and again I remind
36:35
Speaker 5: you that it would be sometimes, not all the time. Sometimes.
36:44
Speaker 5: So when they tell you these things that we're going
36:48
Speaker 5: to fix this stuff, what they mean is they're going
36:50
Speaker 5: to fix your wagon, and your individual liberty and your
36:54
Speaker 5: right to eat badly and die young is exchanged for
37:01
Speaker 5: somebody looking out for you so that you don't have
37:04
Speaker 5: a bad health outcome because the government is now in
37:09
Speaker 5: charge of it. It's the same reason HMO's got such
37:12
Speaker 5: heat for the way they were trying to treat well.
37:15
Speaker 5: I didn't have a good diet, your blood pressure. You
37:18
Speaker 5: have to have to visits doctor visits a day, not
37:22
Speaker 5: a day a year, so that we can monitor your health.
37:26
Speaker 5: Because if you don't take care of your health, we
37:27
Speaker 5: get out of some of our responsibility to you because
37:32
Speaker 5: you didn't do your part, and you should. You should
37:39
Speaker 5: endeavor to live healthy, but doesn't have to be because
37:42
Speaker 5: the government is sniffing your effluent to check and see
37:48
Speaker 5: if you had too many beers or a cheeseburger when
37:52
Speaker 5: that's not prescribed on your medical plan. Diet Uh I
37:58
Speaker 5: sent gluten in there?
38:01
Speaker 15: Can you believe with all the recent violent protests, looting,
38:05
Speaker 15: and destruction. Some areas are considering either defunding or abolishing
38:09
Speaker 15: the police.
38:11
Speaker 26: At a time when America's neighborhoods need the protection of
38:14
Speaker 26: police the most, some elected officials would rather create.
38:17
Speaker 15: More chaos by playing politics.

38:23

44:14
Speaker 2: the first thing today.
44:16
Speaker 15: Doctor, Doctor, didn't even news.
44:19
Speaker 10: I gotta case loving.
44:22
Speaker 5: You itches no, I've remember.
44:29
Speaker 24: I think the bottom line is Republicans are weak. Republicans compromise.
44:33
Speaker 24: Republicans are going to be afraid that letting the Obamacare
44:36
Speaker 24: subsidies expire, which just means people have to shorder more
44:39
Speaker 24: of their own health insurance costs. Letting those expire will
44:44
Speaker 24: will cost them in the midterms because they're popular with
44:46
Speaker 24: some folks. However, you've got forty percent of those who
44:49
Speaker 24: get the enhanced subsidies who haven't even filed acclaim.
44:53
Speaker 5: So you found it good those former Chair of the
44:55
Speaker 5: House Freedom Concas Bob good on why heath that all
45:01
Speaker 5: of this memotas out there talking about things the government
45:05
Speaker 5: should do for healthcare is a signal that one of
45:08
Speaker 5: the things that will be caved on to end the
45:11
Speaker 5: government shutdown partial government shutdown is the extension of the
45:17
Speaker 5: Obamacare subsidies, which is what is exactly causing all the
45:22
Speaker 5: high costs. Meanwhile, a bill it's called the Keep Snap
45:28
Speaker 5: Funded Act of twenty twenty five has been introduced yesterday
45:31
Speaker 5: evening by Marionette Miller Meeks of Ohio of Iowa, Republican,
45:38
Speaker 5: along with the Senate companion bill filed by Senator Josh Hawley.
45:47
Speaker 5: And I saw a statistic here in our home state
45:49
Speaker 5: of Virginia, eight hundred and fifty thousand people use supplemental
45:53
Speaker 5: nutrition program that's not county, the ones that are only
46:00
Speaker 5: getting you know, women and infant children stuff, and it
46:02
Speaker 5: was probably closer to a million people. How do you
46:08
Speaker 5: get there? How do you get there is through subsidy.
46:16
Speaker 5: I mean, my gosh. We had John Stewart on Monday
46:19
Speaker 5: night sitting there sounding like the conservative Adam Smith economist
46:24
Speaker 5: because he was sitting next to Bernie Sanders and Bernie's
46:26
Speaker 5: answer to the subsidy, he was, well, that's why the
46:29
Speaker 5: government needs to take it over. Then we don't have
46:31
Speaker 5: to subsidize it. We just do it. And maybe there
46:37
Speaker 5: is some fiscal sense to the idea of just saying
46:40
Speaker 5: do it. And no, I didn't hit my head. But
46:46
Speaker 5: this is why I said Obamacare, I said in two
46:49
Speaker 5: thousand and nine Obamacare, the whole point of it was
46:53
Speaker 5: to crash the private healthcare system because it was forcing
47:00
Speaker 5: the private healthcare system to do things that knew it
47:04
Speaker 5: would eventually break it doing, and more and more insurance
47:07
Speaker 5: companies leave, which means the fewer insurance companies remaining can
47:12
Speaker 5: charge higher costs because they're the only ones there. And
47:18
Speaker 5: then the government comes in and subsidizes it, so now
47:21
Speaker 5: they have no market incentive to lower costs or rates
47:24
Speaker 5: or anything like that. And meanwhile, as Bob said, that
47:29
Speaker 5: are forty percent of the people never used it, but
47:32
Speaker 5: we funded it. We send it to people and they
47:35
Speaker 5: put it in their your organization's bank accounts and bought
47:38
Speaker 5: lunch with it and what not else. And that's the
47:47
Speaker 5: part that is so concerning, as we've so lost the
47:52
Speaker 5: narrative regarding what is good economic sense. We think what
48:04
Speaker 5: we're living in is a free market. It's not here.
48:11
Speaker 5: Just listen to John Stewart, all of a sudden sounds
48:13
Speaker 5: like it's Adam Smith filling in the Daily Show.
48:19
Speaker 27: Solutions have never been go back to the beginning again.
48:24
Speaker 27: This gets to the democratic solutions have never been too
48:31
Speaker 27: directly provides. It's always been a subsidy to roto man.
48:36
Speaker 27: But what happens is when the government promises endless funds
48:42
Speaker 27: to insurance companies or private universities without any cost controls.
48:48
Speaker 28: And Trump seems to understand this. Prices rise far beyond
48:52
Speaker 28: the rate of inflation.
48:53
Speaker 5: So he gets the point. But what he's making is
48:57
Speaker 5: the case for government run. He's setting Bernie up for
49:02
Speaker 5: the punch line.
49:03
Speaker 28: And we've seen it in tuition, and we've seen it
49:06
Speaker 28: in pharmaceutical and we've seen it in healthcare.
49:10
Speaker 5: So a guy like me, when I say this, I'm
49:13
Speaker 5: a racist, I'm a bigot. I want Americans to be
49:16
Speaker 5: stupid uneducated. When John Stewart says it, because he's setting
49:20
Speaker 5: up the narrative for the government is the answer.
49:24
Speaker 28: My question is, will Democrats recognize the poison pill that
49:31
Speaker 28: they've often placed into well intentioned policy.
49:36
Speaker 5: And there's where he says the quiet part out loud
49:39
Speaker 5: because the poison pill is there intentionally. Romeo and Juliet
49:43
Speaker 5: both got their poison pills. They knew what they were doing.
49:49
Speaker 5: The poison pills are there to make us say enough
49:52
Speaker 5: of this. Get Bernie Sanders in here and put him
49:56
Speaker 5: in charge.
49:57
Speaker 29: What they end up doing is coming up with very
49:59
Speaker 29: com complicated proposals. You make forty eight, nine hundred and
50:03
Speaker 29: sixty four dollars, yes, you will get this thing. You
50:06
Speaker 29: make a dollar more, you finished, and blah blah, blah blah. Look,
50:08
Speaker 29: we have got to make it simple. In the wealthiest
50:11
Speaker 29: country in the history of the world. Should healthcare be
50:13
Speaker 29: a human right? Yes, it should human right. That means
50:17
Speaker 29: you have the right. And this goes back to John Locke.
50:21
Speaker 29: John Locke says that rights are defended and secured by government,
50:26
Speaker 29: but there are certain things that cannot be rights. If
50:28
Speaker 29: you read John Locke, and Bernie is just parsing John
50:32
Speaker 29: Locke saying that if the government chooses to defend your
50:36
Speaker 29: right to healthcare, then we have given you the right
50:38
Speaker 29: to healthcare. No, because you cannot give somebody the right
50:44
Speaker 29: to the work of another.
50:47
Speaker 5: Read John Locke. I mean he says this specifically, that
50:51
Speaker 5: the efforts, the toil, the products produced by other humans
50:58
Speaker 5: cannot be made into a right. You don't have the
51:02
Speaker 5: right to the services of another, whether it be a
51:06
Speaker 5: doctor or a nurse, or a midwife, a pharmacist. You
51:13
Speaker 5: don't have the right to have somebody work for you. You
51:17
Speaker 5: don't have the right to a carpenter and a bricklayer
51:23
Speaker 5: and all the folks who would be necessary to build
51:26
Speaker 5: you housing. You don't have a right to those people's efforts.
51:31
Speaker 5: Good morning, you're on the air first thing this morning
51:33
Speaker 5: with Joe Thomas.
51:34
Speaker 8: Who's this, Hey, this is Moscow Bob calling you this morning.
51:40
Speaker 5: You mean it's not pharmacist Bob.
51:43
Speaker 8: Well, it's a combination of both, because you know, in
51:46
Speaker 8: Russia they have in Germany they have the national healthcare
51:50
Speaker 8: systems in which Bernie Sanders is talking about. But the
51:54
Speaker 8: thing is is the reason why most people don't aren't
51:59
Speaker 8: worried about the Constant Affordable carect expiring is because that
52:05
Speaker 8: number is such a small percentage of the population, because
52:10
Speaker 8: most of the people don't have Abomacare. So that's why
52:14
Speaker 8: it's really a non issue for the majority of people
52:16
Speaker 8: in the United States.
52:17
Speaker 5: Well, but it is an issue because the insurance companies
52:21
Speaker 5: that you have to purchase insurance from. Remember we're in
52:25
Speaker 5: a mandated insurance economy. You have to buy healthcare insurance
52:30
Speaker 5: otherwise you will be You're not fined currently, but the
52:34
Speaker 5: metrics are still there for you to be fined. And
52:37
Speaker 5: if you tell the irs you have health insurance when
52:40
Speaker 5: you don't, that's a twenty year sentence in Leavenworth because
52:44
Speaker 5: you've lied on a federal form. I know it sounds
52:47
Speaker 5: pedantic to say it, but it's it's really possibility, you know.
52:51
Speaker 5: It's true.
52:52
Speaker 23: Difficult times have a way of focusing us. We have
52:55
Speaker 23: to think about what matters most when it comes to
52:57
Speaker 23: our spending our healthcare. This is why so many people
53:00
Speaker 23: are joining meta share right now. Metashare is a trusted
53:05
Speaker 23: way to save up to fifty percent on your monthly
