  Speaker 1: You're List Saints KFI AM six forty the bill handles
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: show on demand on the iHeartRadio f.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: Kf I AM the six twenty bill handle.
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: It is a Monday morning, August twenty fourth, Hotter than
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: hell out there. It is a real bad one. Here's
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: some interesting news before we jump into the topic. This
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: is twenty five years after the nine to eleven attacks,
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: and for the first time, the Office of Chief Medical
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: Examiner Examiner and the NYPD have identified a single nine
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: to eleven victim using genetic genealogy, which combines DNA testing
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: with the family tree research. Because there are still dozens,
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: if not hundreds of people still unidentified who were there
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: by all evidence outside of confirmation of DNA. So we
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: have one now that just was was in fact discovered
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: and ascertained to well, was identified.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: The US and Canada, the talks between the trade talks
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: that have broken down completely. Now, what was it last week?
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: A deal was to be struck between Canada and the
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: US that the tariffs would for the most part be
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: lifted or not introduced or not going forward. Those talks
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: fell apart hours before the tariffs were going to go
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: in effect, and then the deal was struck. Okay, Well
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: it turns out that it wasn't, and now the tariffs
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: are moving forward. The administration is now tariffing twenty twenty
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: billion dollars worth of goods from Canada. Hockey Sticks, for example,
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: are tariff. This is fifty percent stuff. I mean, that's
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: a big tariff. Steel cars that are built in Canada
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: and so many are and so these are huge tariffs.
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: And Carney, who is the Prime Minister, is saying, dollar
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: per dollar, we're going to match the tariffs, which basically
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: blows up the relations, the economic relations between Canada and US,
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: and it's going to go down a very miserable path.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: The President has said that Canada is screwing the United
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: States in terms of the tariffs that it imposes, and
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: has been for a long time, and in.
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: Some cases he's absolutely right.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: For example, the tariffs on dairy goods, eggs, poultry, milk
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: going into Canada are one hundred percent tariff from the
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: United States, which means effectively they're blocked. And he said, hey,
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: we're not going to take that now. Most goods are not.
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: Canada and the US had a pretty good relationship but
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: relative to tariffs, but the President has said, we're done
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: with that and we are going to now tariff twenty
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: billion dollars worth of goods, tongue depressers or another one.
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: But the big wa I mean, okay, tongue depressers, but
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: the steel and the cars. That's a big, big deal. Now,
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: there were very few tariffs between the two countries between
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: US and Canada because there was a deal that was
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: struck between Canada, Mexico and the US, and that was
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: the USMCA Bill, the agreement, and that was done signed
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: by Trump during his first term, and that governs about
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: two trillion dollars in goods and services between the three countries.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: And the President pulled out of that after Canada and
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: Mexico formally requested that it be renewed for another sixteen years. Now,
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: why is the president so enamored of tariffs? He is
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: enamored of tariffs, and he has said during his campaign
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: even I think the first time or certainly the second
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: time around, the most beautiful words in the English language
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: are tariffs. Why because he genuinely believes that it is
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: to protect American workers. It's that simple. And does it
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: protect American workers to some extent? It does and does
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: it force foreign companies who sell to the United States
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: that their goods are going to be tariffed up the
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: yin yang. Does it force them to build factories in
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: the United States. So the argument can be these were
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: American goods and you can't tear if your own goods. Well,
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: certainly the amount of money that has been promised, and
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: in fact, factories have opened up or they have been started,
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: construction has begun. And the only issue is that the president,
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: how unusual, he has exaggerated beyond belief what the number
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: is like, almost beyond comprehension. And the trillions of dollars, No,
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: in the trillions of trillions of dollars, in the bazillions
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: of dollars that does coming in, and it's not you know,
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: for example, there have been promises, there have been Okay,
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: we'll consider it. And so the President's motivation is I
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: think terrific. He wants to protect American workers, and to
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: the extent tariffs do protect American workers. But here is
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: a huge problem. The tariffs are right now. Building a
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: new factory is years in the making, and so the
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: American worker is going to suffer. The American consumer is
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: going to suffer dramatically for the next couple of years
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: based on what the President is doing, and even he
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: has said the pain will be for the short term
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: and there will be pain, And then their economists are
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: saying that this is completely crapola. And it turns out
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: that if everything is even Stephen, if there are no
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: tariffs coming in the United States, then I'm assuming Trump
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: would say if other countries don't tear off us, we're
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: not going to tear off them. But I think to
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: benefit the American worker, it would happen anyway. So there
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: is now a war starting September eighth, the war begins
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: with the Canada and the US. Now, the other thing
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: that's important I want to finish it up with this
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: is how the US is situated in the world. Because
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: the US is willing to tear off Canada to this extent,
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: those can disappear with the America the next president. Tariffs
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: can happen immediately, and they can be undone immediately as
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: the same day. Even but the way the world views,
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: our allies view us, the trust that they have in
• 6:56
  Speaker 3: US that has for the most part disappeared, that is
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: not going to go away very quickly. That's going to
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: take a very very long time to repair if ever again. Okay,
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: so much for that. A big story about the billionaire tax.
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: A couple things about the billionaire tax I want to
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: share with you. Thing Number one is that the billionaire tax,
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: which is up in November, which we're going to vote
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: for in November, is a five percent tax based on
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: anybody's well worth over a billion dollars at five percent,
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: So let's say someone is worth two hundred and fift
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: well and that's not fair, okay, because there aren't very
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: many people that are. But let's say you're worth five
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: billion dollars, and they're more in California than anyplace else
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: probably in the world. And so on five billion dollars,
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: you get to pay what two hundred and twenty five
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: million or two hundred and fifty million dollars in tax
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: one time to the government. So what's the problem here
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: When you look at these billionaires, they're worth several billion
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: dollars on paper.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: They don't have.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: Billions of dollars in the bank, they don't have two
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: hundred and fifty million dollars to write a check. All
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: of their wealth is in the worth of their company,
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: and so a lot of people are saying, A lot
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: of billionaires are saying, wait a minute, that's not fair
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: to us. I mean, you're asking us to pay the
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: state of California five percent of our net worth. That
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: on top of our income tax. But income tax is
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: not a whole lot. Depending on how much a billionaire
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: takes out well, I mean, you can take out tens
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: of millions of dollars. You know, depending on how high
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: you live, you can take out hundreds of millions dollars.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: But that's ordinary income. This is a five percent one time.
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: Now it's a little bit complex because the billionaires could
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: pay the tax right away and this is their worth
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: of I think January first, twenty twenty six is what
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: it does.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: So it goes back.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: Billionaires could pay the tax right away or spread it
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: over five years, though over five years are charged an
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: extra seven and a half percent of the tax bill
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: each year. The other thing which helps the billionaires is
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: the confer defer the payment until the assets are sold.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: So okay, we'll buy that. That makes that makes some sense. Okay,
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: So a lot of people, including me, saying, come on,
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: all you need to do is tax the rich.
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: That's it. You tax the rich.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: And when you're done taxing the rich, you tax the
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: rich again because the rich it's their fair share. I
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: love that statement. They have to pay their fair share.
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: What does that mean? The highest marginal tax rate in
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: California is fifty two percent if you count California taxes
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: on top of federal taxes, fifty two percent. Surveys have
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: come out. Do you know what the what taxes would be?
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: Neil?
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: What do you think income tax should be? If you
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: had to guess? Just what do you think is fair?
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: What do you mean should be? Oh?
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: What do I think it's fair? Yeah? What do you
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: think is fair? I don't know?
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, that's gonna work. Cono, what do you think
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: is fair? You're not helping?
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: Okay, Amy, Amy? What do you think is fair? Text? Okay, Will?
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: What do you think is fair? I was doing something
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: else and I have no idea what you're talking about? Okay?
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: What do you think is fair? Income tax? What is
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: fair to you? What do you think it's fair? You
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: don't know either?
• 10:42
  Speaker 2: Okay?
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, move on? Okay, Yeah? I mean and what
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: if they pay you in coupons for all you can
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: eat buffets?
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: That? Yeah? And then I'm not gonna go through it.
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: Let me tell you what surveys have done, and it's
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: been universal surveys. About a third people think about a
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: third is fair. California, we're at fifty two percent. The
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: rich pay the taxes, and we want more tax to
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: be paid. So that doesn't make a lot of sense
• 11:13
  Speaker 3: those for people who don't have money or don't have billions.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: The other thing is, which is really interesting, we talk
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: about how billionaires, how wealthy people are leaving the state
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: because of taxes.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: Are you ready for this?
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: California still dominates money coming in.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: Venture money.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: Venture money funding in California is three times more than
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: every other state in the Union combined. That's how much
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: money is coming in. Ninety percent of all venture capital
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: from the US is coming into California. Why the taxes
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: are insane, Well, we have a deep pool of talent,
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: we have rich and investors, we have tech infrastructure, and
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: so we are ground zero for what the AI explosion there.
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: It is, the whole thing is being driven by AI.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: Four out of the top twenty five companies that raise
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: the largest venture capital in twenty twenty six, we're based
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: right here in southern California, and so you will wait,
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: wait a second, billionaires and they become billionaires. Someone funds,
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: they bring in funding those people in southern California. The
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: businesses are here, they are taxed in California, the owners
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: of these businesses. And it looks like that five percent
• 12:43
  Speaker 3: tax is going to kick in, because is there any
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: chance that the people in California are not going to
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: vote let's soak the rich again. I'm sorry, We're not
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: soaking the rich. We are simply asking that they pay
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: their fair share. Interestingly enough, you know it's against the tax,
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: is Gavin new.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: Arguing. And it makes sense to me that the more
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: you're going to tax.
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: These incredibly wealthy people, the more they're the quicker they're
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: going to leave the state, and companies leave the state.
• 13:14
  Speaker 3: Tesla left California. A number of huge companies have left California,
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: although they still keep manufacturing here because it's hard to
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: move a factory. So we'll see what happens in November.
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: Do I think a billionaire's tax is going to kick in? Absolutely,
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: I'm just interested in seeing the numbers, how much it's
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: going to win by the proposition.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: I'll tell you what though.
• 13:39
  Speaker 4: I don't think anybody would give a roadent toll about
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: what you're paying in taxes if they've fulfilled the things
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: they're supposed to sidewalks, streets, law enforcement.
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: I know, I disagree. I still think fifty percent between.
• 13:56
  Speaker 3: You don't think it's worse to pay fifty percent. Oh yeah,
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: of course, of course it is. That's worth. But that's
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: not something I understand. But that's not the issue. The
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: issue is what you think is reasonable. That is, I
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: assume the services are being given to us with the
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: taxes that would be high. The point is the taxes
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: are high, and no services are being given.
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: To us unless you're homeless or a legal immigrant.
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: If you're homeless, you don't get many you don't get
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: a lot of services. And if you're at and if
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: you're a ill legal immigrant, you don't get a whole
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: lot of services other than free medical if you're completely poor. Okay,
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: that works, you know, RS? Yeah, RS, that's true. Well,
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: once they're stabilized, you're kicked out. And then and you
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: have education because the kids of those who are undocumented
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: get get free education through high school. So yeah, I
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: think you're argument kicks in. Okay, before we jump into
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: a really fun topic about basically how naive and dumb
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: you are.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: And I do believe this.
• 15:03
  Speaker 3: I usually sometimes I don't have much credibility when I
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: say you guys are morons and idiots cretans, because I
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: just enjoy doing that. Oh, this one is absolutely true.
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: First the Dodgers with Neil or Neil of about the Dodgers.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: What said that? Didn't? None of that worked? Neil, what's
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: going on? Wow? That was incredible. I know, smooth, smooth, smooth. Yeah,
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: I got it.
• 15:27
  Speaker 4: Your official home for Dodgers baseball is AM five seventy
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: LA Sports. Tomorrow afternoon, You're back to back world champion
• 15:34
  Speaker 4: Dodgers take on the Braves in Atlanta, first pitch at
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: four Los Angeles.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: You can listen on AM five seventy LA Sports and
• 15:43
  Speaker 4: stream on the iHeart Radio app brought to you by Sapporo.
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: Great Moments, start with Sapporo Beer, Good with sushi, Great
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: with baseball.
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: Now, what I want to do is, first of all,
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: tell you a fact.
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: And one of the facts that we know is that
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: it's now twenty four hour coverage of course in news,
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: between the Internet, between insta, between the chat rooms, I mean,
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: all of that is twenty four hour news and the
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: conspiracy theorists go crazy because.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: Of the Internet. I mean that has really really exploded.
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: Some of the conspiracy theories are I think outright dangerous.
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: I really do about voting for example, and the fact
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: that elections were rigged. All of those I think are
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: dangerous towards our democracy, and some are just fun. The
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: conspiracy crazy people are just fun. And one of the
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: fun facts about crazy conspiracy people has to do with
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: UFO news coverage. And there was a survey of two
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: thousand Americans and asked the question, is your belief in
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: aliens in sing because of news coverage?
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: Okay, first we start, are there aliens out there? Neil?
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: Are there aliens that visit Earth, that visit Earth? No? Okay,
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: cono aliens that visit Earth? Yes? Okay, excellent, Kono is
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: a moron? Uh, there we go. Will aliens that visit Earth?
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: Of course? Okay? Do they visit Earth at restaurants and
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: talk to you a lot?
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: Not?
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: No, But of course you actually believe that aliens do
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: visit Earth, I'm sure, George says.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: So.
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: George has been in space ships. Uh, he has played
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: ma jong with aliens in their space ships. All right,
• 17:47
  Speaker 3: So oh and just came back in the room and
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: are there aliens out there that visit Earth?
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: No? Okay? Good?
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: Uh so you are not a moron? And Amy is
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: running around someplace in the studio. Now here is the question,
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: the rise in UFO news coverage, and boy has a
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: news coverage increase is an increasing belief in aliens? The
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: answer is a very firm you betcha, particularly for younger Americans.
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: Now remember this is a survey of two thousand people.
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: Thirty seven percent of Americans say that the news coverage
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: about aliens has made them believe more that aliens have
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: visited Earth. Gen z far more likely than baby boomers,
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: men far more likely than women. And what if alien
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: life were confirmed tomorrow, Neil, would you be curious or
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: would you be.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: Fearful of aliens visiting Earth? Oh? By far more curious?
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: So would I be.
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: And that's thirty eight percent versus fearful seventeen percent. If
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: an alien came to Earth and I heard take me
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: to your leader, I would think they're arguing how Americans?
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: Why Americans use quartz as of measuring liquids. See, that's
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: a that's a measurement joke. Okay, take me to your leader. Okay, jeez, you.
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: Had to explain it again. I was like, going, what
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: is he talking about? Exactly?
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: There you go, Amy, Oh, and you're the last one
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: I'm going to ask. Are there aliens that have visited Earth?
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: Okay, good, so most of us say no. So the
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: only Cretans in our group are is Actually it's oh,
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: cono and will the two of you ought to sit
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: down and have lunch together. Aliens, Cono, you better eat
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: quickly on my ear, I foil has Okay, more more
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: than half says their opinion on aliens visit the Earth
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: has not changed, and ten percent actually made them believe less.
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: I'm one of those people where it hasn't changed my
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: belief at all. I still don't believe in aliens visiting Earth.
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: And here's my question. Why do aliens when they visit
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: the Earth never do it publicly? Why don't they go
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: down Pennsylvania Avenue and march with their nineteen legs or
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: whatever they have, and take their four eyes and just
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: look around. Why why is it always some super secret place. Well,
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: by the way, more than half believe that the UFOs
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: that governments know more about the UFOs than are publicly shared.
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: That's sixty percent. That's the other question. Why would the
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: government not share information about UFOs about aliens?
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: Why would they leave it out? Why they're frightened?
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: Is that it because they know that aliens are trying
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: to eat us or make us slaves. So I just
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: don't get It's interesting that more people, a huge number
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: of people say that the coverage makes them more belief,
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: give you a bigger belief, and the majority feel that
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: we are not prepared as a society to properly comprehend
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: the existence of other worldly beings. And maybe that's why
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: the aliens are not being made public or not going public,
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: because they fear that we don't understand what aliens are
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: about and who they are. All Right, for those of you,
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: I don't want to make a value judgment, okay, but
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: I will tell you those of you who believe in aliens,
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: basically your IQ is about par golf.
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: Just want to point that out, all right.
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: An issue, a legal issue, questions that I get all
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: the time on handle in the law, mold mold in
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: my house? What do I do? Do I sue the builder? Well, yeah,
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: what happened I have respiratory problems. Okay, can you prove it?
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: Can you get a doctor? They'll say, yes, the mold
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: caused your respiratory problems. Yes, how about the doctor they're
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: going to bring in? The says no, that's not easy
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: to prove. That's for starters. Second of all, mold isn't
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: that big an issue. In southern California and Louisiana there
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: are thousands of lawsuits have been filed against one of
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: the biggest builders. And here's the reason that mold is
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: so pervasive because as the plaintiffs and these lawsuits are
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: saying that builders are building quicker, they'll be there building
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: cheaper and therefore that causes mold. Well, I got news
• 22:47
  Speaker 3: knowing people and having built homes and in the construction business,
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: builders have always tried to build as cheaply and as
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: quickly as they can, so that doesn't fly. Here is
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: the issue, though, the cost of litigation, because everybody now sues.
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: Everybody sues, and you know you can't get Look at
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: your home insurance policy and look at the exclusions. One
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: is earthquake coverage that's not covered. You have to have
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: a separate policy. Another one is flood insurance that's not covered,
• 23:20
  Speaker 3: not in California. You have to have separate insurance even
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: if it's available, which I don't even know if it is.
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: The other one is mold insurance. That's an exclusion. You
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: can't get mold insurance. Look at your policy because lawsuits
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: abound like crazy with mold insurance or companies that are
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: insuring against mold. Too many lawsuits. They're all over the
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: country and they have gone The reason is the story
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: is those lawsuits have gone up so dramatically because people
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: are discovering mold. It used to be if you had mold, okay,
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: you take some bleach, you kill the mold. Anymore, Now
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: if you have mold, you no longer can breathe, You
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: have heart problems, you have.
• 24:08
  Speaker 2: Nightmares, you're hysterical.
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: Now you can't sleep because you envision mold coming and
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: taking over your body as you go to sleep. What
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: sci fi film is that one where the mold creeps
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: over your body. It's one of the I think that
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: I'm trying to remember which one in the fifties.
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: But the point is lossuit bob.
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: Now the blob was that mold or was that a blobo?
• 24:33
  Speaker 3: It was a blob. Okay, so you think mold is
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: a blob. How about blobby mold. I think we're done, guys. Anyway,
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: Lawsuits of plenty, we finished it on that one.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: That was short.
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: I just wanted to give you a handle on the
• 24:49
  Speaker 3: lost story that I get all the time. Tomorrow we
