- 3:14Speaker 1: to be picking me up. Follow Correll Official on Instagram
- 3:17Speaker 1: if you don't already. My name is spelt kil Today
- 3:22Speaker 1: in history, in eighteen sixty eight, it's part of the reconstruction,
- 3:26Speaker 1: the Continental Congress passed the fourteenth Amendment of the United
- 3:30Speaker 1: States after it was ratified by two thirds of the
- 3:33Speaker 1: states and by a I'm sorry three quarters of the
- 3:36Speaker 1: states a two third vote and three quarters of the
- 3:39Speaker 1: states all ratified it. And it's I bring this up
- 3:44Speaker 1: because that happened today in eighteen sixty eight, and Donald
- 3:48Speaker 1: Trump is trying desperately to get that repealed. When you
- 3:52Speaker 1: hear birthright citizen, that is the fourteenth Amendment. It was
- 3:56Speaker 1: done after reconstruction to say that the slaves that had
- 3:59Speaker 1: chill here, that those children were American. Also that the
- 4:04Speaker 1: slaves that were brought here against their will were also citizens. However,
- 4:09Speaker 1: there is some controversy around that amendment. And see like
- 4:12Speaker 1: Thomas Jefferson, I believe the Constitution should be revisited every
- 4:17Speaker 1: four years. We haven't done it in thirty forty years,
- 4:20Speaker 1: but I believe it should be revisited every four years
- 4:23Speaker 1: with a constitutional convention. Do I agree with the fourteenth Amendment?
- 4:28Speaker 1: Not entirely. Does Donald Trump have a small point? He does,
- 4:34Speaker 1: and I bet y'all are like, what, but he does.
- 4:39Speaker 1: So there are now countries that send people to America
- 4:44Speaker 1: on birth tourism, China and other countries. A pregnant woman
- 4:49Speaker 1: in her eighth months comes to America on a thirty
- 4:53Speaker 1: day visa and during that time has a baby. That baby,
- 4:58Speaker 1: because of the fourteenth Amendment, is technically a citizen. Is
- 5:03Speaker 1: that right? No, Actually, that's not right. I believe this
- 5:10Speaker 1: is just me and I don't make the laws, but
- 5:12Speaker 1: I believe that in order for you to be a
- 5:15Speaker 1: citizen by birth of the United States, your parents should
- 5:20Speaker 1: live here. Now notice I didn't say they should be citizens.
- 5:26Speaker 1: In other words, if they're here on a visa, if
- 5:28Speaker 1: they're here applying for citizenship, if they have sought asylum
- 5:32Speaker 1: but have not been granted it yet. And you are
- 5:35Speaker 1: born here, okay, you're a citizen. And as long as
- 5:40Speaker 1: the parents live here, and I do think there should
- 5:44Speaker 1: be a time like they should have had their live here.
- 5:47Speaker 3: You are visiting really corell dot com daily. You're missing out.
- 5:52Speaker 3: Get the podcast videos and the blog including recipes at
- 5:55Speaker 3: really corell dot com.
- 5:57Speaker 1: That's really ka r e l dot com.
- 6:01Speaker 2: Show Time is here. No time to fear. Corell is
- 6:06Speaker 2: so near because show time is here. So on with
- 6:09Speaker 2: the show. Let's give it a go.
- 6:12Speaker 1: Carell is the one that you need to know. Now.
- 6:17Speaker 1: I don't want to sound all Bill Maher here because
- 6:19Speaker 1: you know he's turned into a well Republican light and
- 6:23Speaker 1: I don't want to act like I'm agreeing with the
- 6:24Speaker 1: other side. Just to gain points with Magar or something.
- 6:27Speaker 1: But I will say, okay, there should be some time limit.
- 6:33Speaker 1: In other words, the parents should have to have lived
- 6:35Speaker 1: here ninety days, you know, half a year. I don't know.
- 6:40Speaker 1: A year. We could decide that, but I just don't
- 6:44Speaker 1: think that. You know, you get off an airplane, you
- 6:48Speaker 1: know you're you're coming to America to visit. You get
- 6:51Speaker 1: off an airplane, you're here for two weeks, you have
- 6:53Speaker 1: a baby while you're here, and suddenly that baby is
- 6:56Speaker 1: an American citizen.
- 6:57Speaker 3: No.
- 6:59Speaker 1: I also don't say the baby should be an American
- 7:01Speaker 1: citizen if you have citizenship somewhere else and are not
- 7:08Speaker 1: in the application process to become an American citizen. Now again,
- 7:13Speaker 1: I didn't plan on doing this as a topic. It
- 7:15Speaker 1: is my little meme for the day that I send
- 7:17Speaker 1: out to all my friends that today, in eighteen sixty eight,
- 7:20Speaker 1: the Fourteenth Amendment became law. Times have changed, and Thomas
- 7:25Speaker 1: Jefferson said, I am not an advocate for frequent changes
- 7:30Speaker 1: in laws and institutions, but laws and institutions must go
- 7:35Speaker 1: hand in hand with the progress of the human mind.
- 7:39Speaker 1: As times change and societies adapt. It would be as
- 7:44Speaker 1: if we were asking a man to wear still the
- 7:47Speaker 1: coat which fitted him as a boy, as it would
- 7:51Speaker 1: be for future generations to live under the tenants of
- 7:54Speaker 1: their barbarous ancestors. And what he was trying to say,
- 7:58Speaker 1: and he was referencing the Constitution, what he was trying
- 8:01Speaker 1: to say, is it needs to change as we change. Okay,
- 8:07Speaker 1: back when they wrote this, you couldn't get to America
- 8:10Speaker 1: in eight hours. Okay, that just didn't happen. The quickest
- 8:14Speaker 1: you could get to America was months, and not many
- 8:18Speaker 1: pregnant women made the trip. Okay. So nowadays where you
- 8:26Speaker 1: can literally be in Hong Kong this morning and be
- 8:29Speaker 1: in La tonight, we do need to have some restrictions
- 8:34Speaker 1: on the fourteenth Amendment. Donald Trump is partially right there.
- 8:40Speaker 1: Now what those restrictions are I leave up to a
- 8:43Speaker 1: competent Congress, which we don't have. I fully believe the
- 8:47Speaker 1: parents should either be in some form of adjudication of
- 8:51Speaker 1: citizenship having applied seeking asylum, whatever that might be. But
- 8:58Speaker 1: if they are full blown residents of another country and
- 9:02Speaker 1: they have every intention of going back to that country,
- 9:06Speaker 1: then their child should be a resident of the country
- 9:09Speaker 1: from which they came, not our country. And it shouldn't
- 9:14Speaker 1: get dual citizenship. Now, I don't want that to be controversial,
- 9:18Speaker 1: and I don't want that to be like I'm siding
- 9:19Speaker 1: with Donald Trump, and I certainly don't want that to
- 9:21Speaker 1: be the whole topic of the show today. But it
- 9:24Speaker 1: just really goes to show that, yes, some of the
- 9:27Speaker 1: Constitution could use some sprucing up, a glow up. I mean,
- 9:31Speaker 1: look at Mitch McConnell. He fell down six weeks ago
- 9:35Speaker 1: and now he looks thirty years younger, practically doing backflips
- 9:39Speaker 1: at some unknown facility. So all of us need a
- 9:44Speaker 1: little glow up now and again andeenth. The Second Amendment
- 9:48Speaker 1: should be removed, just taken out. You don't have a
- 9:51Speaker 1: right to bear arms anymore because you're not part of
- 9:54Speaker 1: a well regulated militia. If you were, Ice would be
- 9:57Speaker 1: afraid of us instead of US afraid of Ice. If
- 10:01Speaker 1: we had well regulated militias in each state, these militias
- 10:06Speaker 1: would go out and greet Ice and tell them they're
- 10:09Speaker 1: not welcomed, and they would be armed under the Second Amendment.
- 10:13Speaker 1: But we don't have well regulated militias. We gave that
- 10:18Speaker 1: up to police, to National Guard, army, Navy, all of that.
- 10:22Speaker 1: So the Second Amendment should come out, and the fourteenth
- 10:26Speaker 1: Amendment should be amended to say that you're an American
- 10:30Speaker 1: citizen if you're born here in this country as long
- 10:34Speaker 1: as your parents are residents or in some step of
- 10:40Speaker 1: becoming a citizen. I think that's fair. If the parents
- 10:45Speaker 1: here seeking asylum, if they have applied whatever it might be,
- 10:49Speaker 1: if they are here illegally, and I don't mean I
- 10:53Speaker 1: mean if they just came across and never filed one
- 10:57Speaker 1: piece of paper, because can we we just talk about
- 11:01Speaker 1: that for a moment and have once again see Maga
- 11:04Speaker 1: and Republicans. They start with a grain of truth. They
- 11:08Speaker 1: start with a grain of something that is not right,
- 11:11Speaker 1: and then they just explode it like a popcorn kernel
- 11:13Speaker 1: into something that it's not. If you want to be
- 11:17Speaker 1: a citizen of the United States, I feel you have
- 11:21Speaker 1: to come here, and once you get here, you have
- 11:24Speaker 1: to immediately go fill out some paperwork immediately, like the
- 11:28Speaker 1: day you get here or the next day. Either go
- 11:32Speaker 1: apply for asylum and say I'm coming from a country
- 11:35Speaker 1: that I need to escape, please help, or apply for
- 11:39Speaker 1: a green card for citizenship. But if you just come
- 11:43Speaker 1: here and you ignore the system altogether, you don't go
- 11:48Speaker 1: apply for anything. You don't apply for asylum, you don't
- 11:51Speaker 1: apply for a green card. Now, look, I know that
- 11:55Speaker 1: people that did those things are getting caught up in
- 11:57Speaker 1: the ice raids and getting deported, and that's wrong. I'm
- 12:01Speaker 1: talking about the people that come here and they simply
- 12:04Speaker 1: don't apply for citizenship, they don't apply for a visa,
- 12:08Speaker 1: they don't apply No, that is wrong. I can't do
- 12:11Speaker 1: that in Ireland. I can't go to France and do that.
- 12:14Speaker 1: You know, I can't get into their country without a
- 12:18Speaker 1: proper visa or paperwork. And if I don't have that,
- 12:22Speaker 1: if I'm trying to flee to their country, they have
- 12:26Speaker 1: a procedure for that as well. Now are those Is
- 12:31Speaker 1: it broken? Yes? And does it need to be revamped? Absolutely?
- 12:34Speaker 1: And is it easy? No? But you should at least
- 12:40Speaker 1: try to do it legally, Okay.
- 12:44Speaker 3: So if the.
- 12:44Speaker 1: Parents are here and they have tried to do something legally,
- 12:48Speaker 1: they've applied for citizenship, they've applied for asylum, whatever, that
- 12:53Speaker 1: might be, okay. Then the kids, any kid born here
- 12:56Speaker 1: as a citizen. But if they're here and they did
- 13:00Speaker 1: not apply for anything, they have filled out no paperwork
- 13:04Speaker 1: to be legal, and they have a kid then no,
- 13:07Speaker 1: I don't think that kid should be a citizen of
- 13:10Speaker 1: the United States. Now you all may hate me for that,
- 13:13Speaker 1: but that's just how I feel. And if you're here
- 13:17Speaker 1: on a visa for like a ninety day visa and
- 13:20Speaker 1: you have to go back to your country and you
- 13:21Speaker 1: have a kid while you're here, no, you're going back home,
- 13:26Speaker 1: you know. So I do believe the fourteenth Amendment could
- 13:29Speaker 1: use a glow up, and how we work that out
- 13:32Speaker 1: would be left to the lawmakers and public opinion and
- 13:35Speaker 1: all that. But I just don't think it should stay
- 13:38Speaker 1: the way it is. Let me put these on and
- 13:40Speaker 1: check the chat room real fast. Let's see blah blah blah.
- 13:50Speaker 1: Our policies made up of maga. Our police is made
- 13:53Speaker 1: up of MAGA, I agree. And they've infiltrated the military too,
- 13:57Speaker 1: I agree. I heard Fox talled up one of the
- 14:02Speaker 1: most extreme examples of DSA candidates. I don't know what
- 14:05Speaker 1: they're talking about. Oh DSA is that Democratic Socialist of America?
- 14:13Speaker 1: You know? But yeah, Trump isn't always wrong about everything.
- 14:16Speaker 1: He's not, and it'd be dumb to say that anybody
- 14:19Speaker 1: is a broken clocket right twice a day. He's not
- 14:24Speaker 1: always wrong. Sometimes the stuff he's talking about has a
- 14:29Speaker 1: root in fact or in a problem. It's just how
- 14:33Speaker 1: he implements the solution that's the real issue. So when
- 14:38Speaker 1: it comes to the fourteenth Amendment, no, we should not
- 14:41Speaker 1: end birthright citizenship. No he's wrong about that. However, we
- 14:46Speaker 1: should glow up the amendment for the times Again. Our
- 14:51Speaker 1: founders never really envisioned on America where you could be
- 14:56Speaker 1: in America and from anywhere in the world within twelve
- 15:01Speaker 1: They just didn't, you know, that wasn't on their mind.
- 15:04Speaker 1: Jet travel and all of that, Nor did they anticipate
- 15:09Speaker 1: how the world would unfold. So if you want, if
- 15:14Speaker 1: you have a kid here and you've applied for citizenship
- 15:18Speaker 1: or you've applied for asylum, et cetera, Okay, then it's
- 15:22Speaker 1: an American. But if you're here on a visa, if
- 15:25Speaker 1: you're going back to your own country, or if you're
- 15:29Speaker 1: just visiting you just happen to be in the country
- 15:31Speaker 1: and you have a baby, then no, it shouldn't be
- 15:32Speaker 1: a citizen just because it fell out of your womb
- 15:34Speaker 1: in our country. If if my pregnant wife, wouldn't that
- 15:38Speaker 1: be something If my pregnant wife went to Ireland with
- 15:42Speaker 1: me just for a visit for two weeks and had
- 15:45Speaker 1: a baby in Ireland. It shouldn't be an Irish citizen,
- 15:48Speaker 1: and I don't think it would be, so, you know, okay,
- 15:51Speaker 1: So there all of that from today in history, because today,
- 15:54Speaker 1: in eighteen sixty eight, the Fourteenth Amendment passed. Now in
- 15:59Speaker 1: the chat im at YouTube dot com, forward slash really
- 16:01Speaker 1: Correll when I put my glasses on, which are fashionable
- 16:04Speaker 1: ray bans, aren't they fabulous? They're talking about Democratic Socialists
- 16:09Speaker 1: of America. I don't want you all to start bad
- 16:11Speaker 1: mouthing them. Don't badpo mouth dsays in my presence, because
- 16:17Speaker 1: I am basically turning into a democratic socialist. Okay, I
- 16:22Speaker 1: fully believe what they believe, or some of it. Maybe
- 16:29Speaker 1: not all of it, but some of it. So I
- 16:33Speaker 1: am truly. My late husband Andrew was a socialist. He
- 16:36Speaker 1: identified as a socialist, and a lot of socialism's beliefs
- 16:41Speaker 1: I agree with. You know, they say in capitalism something
- 16:47Speaker 1: about there are rich people, blah blah blah, but in
- 16:50Speaker 1: socialism there are rich people, but there are no poor people.
- 16:56Speaker 1: And having been raised the way that I was raised
- 17:00Speaker 1: poor and as an adult being basically poor, you know,
- 17:04Speaker 1: I asked chat GPT, chat GPT about some numbers. Let
- 17:09Speaker 1: me see if I still have them here chat GPT
- 17:13Speaker 1: because Sid Castro, a listener, sent me, you know what
- 17:17Speaker 1: the average American makes, and you know the average American
- 17:21Speaker 1: salary and all of that, and that is a little deceptive, okay,
- 17:28Speaker 1: because you got to break it down by you know,
- 17:32Speaker 1: demographic and all of that. So let's see. Let's see
- 17:39Speaker 1: right here. Okay, here we go. So I got sent
- 17:44Speaker 1: a thing that said the average American has a salary
- 17:47Speaker 1: of sixty two, six hundred dollars. We'll talk about housing
- 17:51Speaker 1: affordability in a second and how that plays into it.
- 17:54Speaker 1: And this has everything to do with my topic today
- 17:56Speaker 1: that the Democrats need to read the room, and that
- 17:58Speaker 1: includes some of you in my chat room who are
- 18:00Speaker 1: bad mouthing democratic socialist. You need to read the room.
- 18:05Speaker 1: Young people are gravitating to democratic socialism, and if that's
- 18:10Speaker 1: what they want, if that's the form of government that
- 18:14Speaker 1: speaks to them, that gets them to go vote, that
- 18:17Speaker 1: excites them, then you better shut the fuck up and
- 18:20Speaker 1: get out the way, okay, or else we're gonna lose.
- 18:23Speaker 1: And I'm tired of losing to Republicans because Democrats can't
- 18:27Speaker 1: get their shit together and read the room, because Democrats
- 18:31Speaker 1: are turning into Bill maher to crotchety old people who
- 18:35Speaker 1: want things done the way they were always done. If
- 18:39Speaker 1: that's who you are, sit down and shut up and
- 18:41Speaker 1: move out of the way, and let AOC step on in,
- 18:44Speaker 1: let Mendami step on in, because that's what the people
- 18:50Speaker 1: that are young want. Okay. So the average American has
- 18:56Speaker 1: a salary of sixty two six hundred dollars, has a
- 18:59Speaker 1: mortgage somewhere around two hundred and seventy five thousand dollars,
- 19:03Speaker 1: has sixty seven hundred dollars of credit card debt, has
- 19:07Speaker 1: twenty four thousand dollars in car loan, has forty six
- 19:10Speaker 1: thousand in a helock per, which is a home equity
- 19:14Speaker 1: line of credit, purchased their first home somewhere around thirty
- 19:17Speaker 1: eight years old, has less than one thousand dollars in savings,
- 19:22Speaker 1: and has about thirty eight thousand, four hundred dollars in
- 19:24Speaker 1: student loans. Does any of that sound like you? Okay?
- 19:30Speaker 1: So I asked CHATJPT, which is good for some things,
- 19:32Speaker 1: and I asked it are these numbers correct? And it's
- 19:35Speaker 1: said The answer is mostly yes, but it's a mashup
- 19:39Speaker 1: of different statistics. So here's how it breaks down. The
- 19:43Speaker 1: salary of sixty two thousand, six hundred depends on whether
- 19:45Speaker 1: you're looking at individual workers all adults, or household average
- 19:51Speaker 1: wages are in that general range, but the median earning
- 19:55Speaker 1: is actually lower. A mortgage of two hundred and seventy
- 19:59Speaker 1: four thousand actually a bit high. It says. The average
- 20:02Speaker 1: median mortgage is two hundred and fifty eight thousand. Credit
- 20:05Speaker 1: card debt is spot on sixty seven hundred and thirty
- 20:08Speaker 1: five dollars, and I have about that much car loan
- 20:12Speaker 1: twenty four thousand, three hundred. It's actually twenty four thousand,
- 20:15Speaker 1: six hundred, so that number is right in there. I
- 20:18Speaker 1: don't have a car loan for twenty five thousand dollars.
- 20:21Speaker 1: Helock a forty six thousand, it says. The current average
- 20:24Speaker 1: is closer to forty eight. Amongst people who have one,
- 20:27Speaker 1: most Americans don't have one. I have one, and I
- 20:31Speaker 1: owe forty six thousand, five hundred dollars. I am. I
- 20:34Speaker 1: am that statistic right there. Bought first home at thirty eight.
- 20:39Speaker 1: Actually that's lowered now to the low thirties, less than
- 20:44Speaker 1: one thousand in savings is misleading. The Federal Reserve find
- 20:48Speaker 1: sixty three percent of adults could cover a four hundred
- 20:50Speaker 1: dollars emergency with cash savings or a credit card, which
- 20:54Speaker 1: they would then pay off immediately. Many households have much
- 20:58Speaker 1: more than a thousand in savings, though many have very little.
- 21:02Speaker 1: Student loans dated the average is about thirty two thousand,
- 21:06Speaker 1: and of course not every American at a student. So
- 21:11Speaker 1: I'll tell you the real numbers when we come back,
- 21:14Speaker 1: and then we'll equate that to the cost of living state.
- 21:32Speaker 1: No is shoes, all right. So one of the most
- 21:39Speaker 1: misunderstood statistics in America today is the average income to
- 21:44Speaker 1: describe things that actually are apples and oranges. So you say,
- 21:49Speaker 1: like the average of whom. So there isn't one average
- 21:52Speaker 1: American salary, not like there used to be. The major
- 21:56Speaker 1: ways that we measure this are a median full time worker. Okay,
- 22:01Speaker 1: this is the middle of the road full time worker.
- 22:04Speaker 1: They do make about sixty two thousand, six hundred dollars
- 22:07Speaker 1: a year before taxes, which means they only bring home
- 22:10Speaker 1: about forty two thousand dollars a year, which is less
- 22:14Speaker 1: than four thousand dollars a month. It's about eight hundred
- 22:17Speaker 1: dollars a week. Nine hundred, yeah, right, around nine hundred
- 22:21Speaker 1: a week. Half of the full time workers earn more
- 22:24Speaker 1: and half earn less. So when you hear that sixty
- 22:27Speaker 1: two to six, that's the middle. Half of the workers
- 22:30Speaker 1: make less than that and then half make more. Okay. Now,
- 22:35Speaker 1: the mean average full time worker mathematical average, and this
- 22:41Speaker 1: is if you include the higher earners, is about seventy
- 22:44Speaker 1: thousand dollars a year. So when you add everybody in,
- 22:49Speaker 1: it pulls it up to about seventy thousand dollars a year. Okay. Now,
- 22:55Speaker 1: the median household didn't come. This is when there's two
- 22:58Speaker 1: people working in the house is eighty three thousand, seven
- 23:03Speaker 1: hundred a year. That means fifty percent of the people
- 23:06Speaker 1: with two household incomes make less than that, and fifty
- 23:10Speaker 1: percent make more than that. So the middle is eighty
- 23:14Speaker 1: three seven And the median personal income, which includes retirees,
- 23:19Speaker 1: part time workers, students, unemployed people, or people on disability,
- 23:25Speaker 1: that's forty five thousand dollars a year. And sad for me,
- 23:30Speaker 1: that's where I am. That's that's right where I fit.
- 23:35Speaker 1: So you have half the workers making more than sixty
- 23:41Speaker 1: or seventy thousand a year, and you have half the
- 23:43Speaker 1: workers making less than seventy thousand dollars a year. And
- 23:48Speaker 1: that's pretty damn interesting. So how many workers make over
- 23:53Speaker 1: one hundred thousand? So it depends on again whether you're
- 23:57Speaker 1: talking individuals or household. The full time, year round worker,
- 24:02Speaker 1: about twenty five percent earn one hundred thousand dollars or more.
- 24:07Speaker 1: So that means the single full time worker, seventy five
- 24:12Speaker 1: percent of them do not make one hundred thousand or more.
- 24:18Speaker 1: And I use that figure because we now know to
- 24:22Speaker 1: because of rents and the cost of gas and food,
- 24:25Speaker 1: to live comfortably in America, not be rich, but just
- 24:30Speaker 1: to be getting by paying your bills with the one
- 24:33Speaker 1: third of your income being your rent, having money for food,
- 24:38Speaker 1: cell phones, vacation once a year, vacation just once a year, vacation,
- 24:44Speaker 1: and putting away ten percent in having enough to put
- 24:47Speaker 1: ten percent away in savings. That figure is now one
- 24:52Speaker 1: hundred k because they're only going to bring home seventy
- 24:55Speaker 1: of that and again that's not even fifty five hundred
- 25:00Speaker 1: a month, that's not even two grand a week. So yeah,
- 25:07Speaker 1: three out of four people make less than one hundred
- 25:11Speaker 1: thousand dollars a year. Okay. Now, if you broaden it
- 25:15Speaker 1: to everybody, all people, retiree, students, part time workers, then
- 25:21Speaker 1: it goes down to only sixteen percent making one hundred
- 25:26Speaker 1: thousand or more, because that lower income bracket pulls that
- 25:30Speaker 1: number down. Okay, households where there's two earners forty percent
- 25:37Speaker 1: of US households or four out of ten or two
- 25:41Speaker 1: out of five, so two out of five households make
- 25:45Speaker 1: more than one hundred thousand combined. Okay. So if you
- 25:50Speaker 1: have one hundred Americans, about out of those, about sixty
- 25:54Speaker 1: five are employed. Okay. Out of that, about eighteen makeover
- 25:59Speaker 1: one hundred thousand a year, or forty households bring in
- 26:03Speaker 1: over one hundred thousand. So what I'm saying here, and
- 26:07Speaker 1: I don't mean to confuse you with all these numbers,
- 26:10Speaker 1: is that we're not making a shit ton of money. Okay.
- 26:14Speaker 1: We are not. We're just not and it cost a
- 26:18Speaker 1: shit ton of money to live, Okay. And so I
- 26:23Speaker 1: bring that up because yesterday we talked about housing cost.
- 26:29Speaker 1: So let's go with the fact that seventy five percent
- 26:32Speaker 1: of us make less than one hundred thousand a year
- 26:38Speaker 1: the average rent for a two bedroom and you know
- 26:41Speaker 1: chat GPT could tell me that right now average rent
- 26:45Speaker 1: in USA for a two bedroom apartment. The average rent
- 26:50Speaker 1: in the United States for a two bedroom apartment is
- 26:55Speaker 1: about nineteen hundred dollars a month. That can go up. Again,
- 27:01Speaker 1: that's average. That means fifty percent of the rents are
- 27:03Speaker 1: more and fifty percent or less so a typical number.
- 27:08Speaker 1: An average typical number in the lowest market around thirteen
- 27:13Speaker 1: hundred a month in an average metro area, two grand
- 27:17Speaker 1: a month in an expensive city Los Angeles, Seattle, New York, Dallas.
- 27:23Speaker 1: All of that average is thirty two hundred a month
- 27:28Speaker 1: San Francisco, fifty five one hundred a month for a
- 27:34Speaker 1: two bedroom median price again fifty percent being higher than
- 27:40Speaker 1: fifty five hundred a month, fifty percent being lower. So
- 27:45Speaker 1: using the median full time worker salary of sixty two
- 27:49Speaker 1: thousand and nine a year, your gross monthly income is
- 27:52Speaker 1: fifty two hundred dollars. A typical two bedroom is nineteen
- 27:57Speaker 1: hundred dollars. You're already at almost four forty percent of
- 28:00Speaker 1: your income for just rent, and that doesn't include utility.
- 28:05Speaker 1: So when you add in utilities. You're at about forty
- 28:07Speaker 1: five percent of your income for just rent. That's fifteen
- 28:12Speaker 1: percent over what it's supposed to be. And this and
- 28:18Speaker 1: I do it on the show all the time, and
- 28:20Speaker 1: I call it the math of America. This math is
- 28:23Speaker 1: why we are all suffering. Okay, the math of America
- 28:29Speaker 1: is not adding up because when you look at those numbers,
- 28:35Speaker 1: the poverty level in America should be about seventy thousand
- 28:39Speaker 1: dollars a year. If you're not making seventy k, you're
- 28:42Speaker 1: not making it. And some of you are going to go,
- 28:44Speaker 1: I don't make anywhere near that. Corella and I make
- 28:46Speaker 1: it just fine. Good for you. You're not average. The
- 28:53Speaker 1: average person in America can't make it because the math
- 28:58Speaker 1: ain't mathing. Okay to period. If that what's driving the
- 29:06Speaker 1: kids to be democratic socialist, you bet your buppi. We'll
- 29:11Speaker 1: talk about how the Democratic parties lives. Some of my
- 29:14Speaker 1: viewers need to read the room. Yeah, girl, let's top that.
- 29:20Speaker 1: Let's go.
- 29:23Speaker 3: It's broadcasting from a completely different point of view.
- 29:27Speaker 1: Yours. Listen daily to the.
- 29:29Speaker 3: Corral Cast on your favorite streaming service. Who has helped
- 29:40Speaker 3: You're listening to the Corral Cast? Driving you home or
- 29:44Speaker 3: driving you crazy. It's broadcasting from a completely different point
- 29:49Speaker 3: of view yours.
- 29:52Speaker 1: Listen daily to.
- 29:53Speaker 3: The Corel cast on your favorite streaming service. You're listening
- 30:04Speaker 3: to the corell cast driving you home or driving you crazy.
- 30:12Speaker 1: No, all right, Democrats, this is part of your problem.
- 30:19Speaker 1: You're in my chatroom right now and you're spreading lies.
- 30:22Speaker 1: Someone said, well, democratic socialist, you know, so you're for
- 30:27Speaker 1: no prisons, no military, no borders, government will own most
- 30:30Speaker 1: of the corporations. Sounds a bit too radical for me.
- 30:34Speaker 1: What democratic socialist candidate has come forward and said, let's
- 30:39Speaker 1: get rid of our borders, let's empty our prisons and
- 30:42Speaker 1: not have them, let's get rid of our military. Name
- 30:45Speaker 1: the candidate who has said those things, Show me the links,
- 30:50Speaker 1: post them in the chat room. Show me what democratic
- 30:55Speaker 1: socialist candidate has said these things. Because we're not talking
- 31:01Speaker 1: about pure socialism here, okay, we're talking about a mixture
- 31:06Speaker 1: of democratic principles and socialist principles, which we already have.
- 31:12Speaker 1: But you're letting the rights scare you. You're letting them
- 31:17Speaker 1: use the word like a dirty word. If you don't
- 31:20Speaker 1: like socialism, don't go drive on our roads. If you
- 31:23Speaker 1: don't like socialism. Don't collect Medicare, don't collect social Security,
- 31:28Speaker 1: don't collect medicaid, don't ever use the SNAP program, don't
- 31:32Speaker 1: use the post office. If you don't like socialism, write
- 31:36Speaker 1: a check to the federal government for all the years
- 31:39Speaker 1: you or your children went to public school. Just get
- 31:43Speaker 1: out your checkbook and write a check to the government
- 31:46Speaker 1: for all the years that you or your children went
- 31:49Speaker 1: to public school. Because that, by definition, is socialism. And
- 31:56Speaker 1: as you talk about government owning corporations, Donald Trump is
- 32:01Speaker 1: buying on behalf of the US government stakes in major corporations.
- 32:07Speaker 1: He's gonna buy five percent of open AI, of CHAT
- 32:11Speaker 1: of of you know, chat GPT, the federal government already has.
- 32:16Speaker 1: And by the way, for those of you that say
- 32:18Speaker 1: you are not for the federal government owning corporations, then
- 32:22Speaker 1: why the fuck are you allowing all of the subsidies
- 32:26Speaker 1: that go to these corporations and we get nothing back.
- 32:30Speaker 1: We give the airlines billions of dollars, and what do
- 32:33Speaker 1: we get? High prices, long lines, and bad service, and
- 32:39Speaker 1: yet we build them out to the tune of billions
- 32:41Speaker 1: of dollars. We gave the auto manufacturers in two thousand
- 32:45Speaker 1: and nine billions of dollars. They all marched up to
- 32:48Speaker 1: the hill and wanted a handout. You must save our industry.
- 32:52Speaker 1: And what did they give us? Low gas mileage, gas
- 32:55Speaker 1: guzzling vehicles that just made us go to the oil
- 32:59Speaker 1: companies as customers. Did they give us affordable electric cars? No,
- 33:03Speaker 1: they took billions of our dollars and gave us nothing back.
- 33:08Speaker 1: At least if we owned the corporations, we'd get things
- 33:12Speaker 1: we needed. So what is your problem with the federal
- 33:18Speaker 1: government running key corporations that we need? What is your
- 33:22Speaker 1: problem with that? You're afraid Jeff be Thos will go hungry.
- 33:26Speaker 1: You're afraid Elon Musk won't have enough money to buy
- 33:28Speaker 1: a new rocket. The US government should own a car
- 33:34Speaker 1: company that makes a ten thousand dollars a year, I
- 33:38Speaker 1: mean a ten thousand dollars electric car period. The United
- 33:43Speaker 1: States government should own a car company that makes and
- 33:49Speaker 1: sells ten thousand dollars a year electric cars period. Hitler OWNVW.
- 33:57Speaker 1: You love VWS? Hitler own it? Ike owned it. Why
- 34:04Speaker 1: wouldn't the United States run an energy company to manage
- 34:09Speaker 1: all of our oil so the profits from all of
- 34:12Speaker 1: our oil sales would go right back into our services
- 34:17Speaker 1: like infrastructure, better public transportation. Why is it better that
- 34:22Speaker 1: the CEOs of Chevron and Enron and all of these
- 34:26Speaker 1: make billions of dollars in profits and we don't see
- 34:29Speaker 1: any of that money for oil they pull out of
- 34:31Speaker 1: the ground under our fucking feet. Why do we get
- 34:36Speaker 1: nothing from that? It's our oil, over our country, and
- 34:43Speaker 1: yet Chevron makes all the money. Enron makes all the money.
- 34:48Speaker 1: But if you suggest that the United States should have.
- 34:51Speaker 4: The Saudis own their oil, the Saudi government owns the
- 34:57Speaker 4: Saudi oils, and they lease, they lease to other countries
- 35:03Speaker 4: or other entities like Chevron or Shell or whatever.
- 35:09Speaker 1: What read the room. People are tired of corporations making
- 35:14Speaker 1: billions and us getting nothing.
- 35:16Speaker 3: If you're not visiting really corell dot com daily, you're
- 35:20Speaker 3: missing out. Get the podcast videos and the blug including
- 35:23Speaker 3: recipes at reallycorrell dot com. That's really KA R e
- 35:28Speaker 3: l dot com.
- 35:30Speaker 2: Show time is here. No time to fear Corrill is
- 35:35Speaker 2: so near because show time is here.
- 35:37Speaker 1: So on with the show.
- 35:39Speaker 2: Let's give it a go.
- 35:41Speaker 1: Correll is the one that you need to know. So
- 35:47Speaker 1: if the co chair of the DSA Democratic Socialist of America,
- 35:51Speaker 1: made a video stating that she's for no prisons, no borders. No,
- 35:56Speaker 1: then she's a whacked out nut job who is not
- 35:58Speaker 1: really a democratic socialist, and she's not a candidate running
- 36:01Speaker 1: for anything, because that is not what any Democratic socialist
- 36:07Speaker 1: that I have seen has said. Okay, should the United
- 36:12Speaker 1: States run grocery stores? You bet, you're ass we should.
- 36:16Speaker 1: Why shouldn't it be one of the government's responsibilities to
- 36:19Speaker 1: feed its people and to make sure food stays affordable.
- 36:23Speaker 1: Why is that obtuse to you or anybody that the
- 36:28Speaker 1: United States runs grocery stores instead of these private for profits?
- 36:34Speaker 1: Why do we give away all of the things that
- 36:38Speaker 1: directly affect our lives to private for profit entities? How
- 36:44Speaker 1: does that make sense? How does it make sense that
- 36:48Speaker 1: private corporations are in charge of your healthcare? How does
- 36:52Speaker 1: that make sense? It doesn't work. It certainly doesn't work
- 36:56Speaker 1: for you. Young kids are tired of not being able
- 37:00Speaker 1: to access healthcare because of money. They're tired of it.
- 37:04Speaker 1: They want socialized medicine. And does it have it problems?
- 37:08Speaker 1: You bet it has its problems. Can those problems be solved?
- 37:11Speaker 1: You bet they can. Why shouldn't the United States own
- 37:16Speaker 1: an oil company get and run gas stations. Why is
- 37:22Speaker 1: that obscene or obtuse to you? Why is it better
- 37:24Speaker 1: that Shell and Arco and Chevron, Why is it better
- 37:27Speaker 1: that they run the gas companies? If you need gas
- 37:31Speaker 1: to power your life, and you do, then why shouldn't
- 37:34Speaker 1: the government be involved in providing that? Can you explain that?
- 37:44Speaker 1: Why shouldn't the federal government set rents? Answer that? Why
- 37:49Speaker 1: shouldn't the federal government work with local municipalities to set rents?
- 37:54Speaker 1: Why are rents allowed to be fifty five hundred dollars
- 37:57Speaker 1: in San Francisco? That should be period. There should be
- 38:02Speaker 1: a cap on how much you can charge for a
- 38:05Speaker 1: two bedroom, two bath unit. Period. There should be a range.
- 38:10Speaker 1: You can start it zero and go up to four
- 38:16Speaker 1: grand to you know, on the in the pricey markets.
- 38:19Speaker 1: But fifty five hundred, six thousand, seven thousand, Why should
- 38:26Speaker 1: developers and rich landowners get all of that money and
- 38:34Speaker 1: not you? And I? Every time someone tells me they're
- 38:37Speaker 1: against socialism, I ask, why don't you feel you deserve
- 38:40Speaker 1: the best? I mean, don't you feel that you're worthy?
- 38:47Speaker 1: Why shouldn't the federal government make electricity free, build solar
- 38:52Speaker 1: farms across the country, and make sure that every person
- 38:56Speaker 1: that needs power has it. Why do private companies run
- 39:00Speaker 1: our water? Why are private companies being allowed to buy
- 39:04Speaker 1: water rights? Why is that even allowed? Why would a
- 39:08Speaker 1: private company be able to buy the water rights in
- 39:12Speaker 1: a state because they are We died without water. You
- 39:17Speaker 1: want to leave that to a private corporation? No? So, yeah,
- 39:22Speaker 1: I'm a socialist. The people should own their own water.
- 39:26Speaker 1: The people should own the minerals and oil that comes
- 39:30Speaker 1: out of the land underneath their feet from their country,
- 39:34Speaker 1: and they should benefit in the profits. Government should set
- 39:40Speaker 1: housing prices in terms of rentals. Government should set all
- 39:46Speaker 1: kinds of things that there should be socialized medicine and healthcare.
- 39:50Speaker 1: No insurance companies. We don't need an insurance company. We
- 39:55Speaker 1: have Medicare. It's an insurance company. Everybody should buy their
- 39:59Speaker 1: health insurance through Medicare, and it should be a very
- 40:04Speaker 1: small sliding scale. If you're a millionaire, okay, you pay
- 40:08Speaker 1: five or ten grand a year for health insurance. If
- 40:12Speaker 1: you make under one hundred thousand dollars, it's free. Why
- 40:17Speaker 1: is that fair? Carell because it is fair because those
- 40:21Speaker 1: that have can pay and those that don't can't. And
- 40:25Speaker 1: in a socialist society, that still means that everybody has.
- 40:32Speaker 1: And this is what the kids want, This is what
- 40:35Speaker 1: young voters want. If Democrats don't start reading the room,
- 40:38Speaker 1: they're going to lose and Republicans will win. Is that
- 40:43Speaker 1: what we want? I don't want that. I don't think
- 40:49Speaker 1: you want that. Read the room. You know, young people
- 40:54Speaker 1: don't want Democrats to run from gay rights issues. They
- 40:58Speaker 1: want them to stand up. Young voters don't want Democrats
- 41:02Speaker 1: to be weaker on social issues. They want them to
- 41:05Speaker 1: be stronger. All the older Democrats are saying, no, no,
- 41:09Speaker 1: walk away from the social issues. Let's not champion the gays,
- 41:13Speaker 1: Let's leave abortion alone for a while. Those are old Democrats,
- 41:18Speaker 1: new young democratic socialists. They want to stand up for
- 41:23Speaker 1: gay and buy rights and trans rights. They want to
- 41:26Speaker 1: stand up for a woman's right to choose. Read the room, Lord,
- 41:33Speaker 1: have mercy, all right, let me check what's going on here.
- 41:38Speaker 1: Current prisons are for profit, private businesses. We jail most
- 41:41Speaker 1: people for things that are currently legal. Jail is a business. Yes,
- 41:44Speaker 1: I agree, And that's a bad idea, a very bad idea.
- 41:49Speaker 1: France does all the things you are promoting right now.
- 41:51Speaker 1: I've spent a lot of time in France, and everything
- 41:53Speaker 1: is much better for them. Well, of course it is.
- 41:56Speaker 1: You know, abolish borders in prisons. We should abolish prisons,
- 42:04Speaker 1: but we should abolish the private prisons. Do you know
- 42:10Speaker 1: that a majority of ICE detention centers are privately owned
- 42:14Speaker 1: and therefore they have to be stocked with people, so
- 42:18Speaker 1: the owners get checks from the government, so they don't
- 42:21Speaker 1: care who they're go pulling off the fucking streets so
- 42:23Speaker 1: long as they end up in a detention center. Oh,
- 42:25Speaker 1: poor Andrew Tate. Have you heard about poor Andrew Tate?
- 42:29Speaker 1: Oh my god, he's got a screaming cannibal next to
- 42:31Speaker 1: him in his water faucet doesn't work and brown water
- 42:34Speaker 1: comes out and he can't drink the water. And you mean,
- 42:37Speaker 1: like the conditions you advocated for for people and now
- 42:41Speaker 1: what is it, alligator Alcatraz? You mean like the prisons
- 42:47Speaker 1: you advocate for people to be taken by ice. Because
- 42:50Speaker 1: you've been sucking Donald Trump's dick since he got elected,
- 42:55Speaker 1: Andrew Tate, I hope you're in the worst hell hole
- 42:58Speaker 1: in the world. But I agree federal prisons and state
- 43:03Speaker 1: prisons should be nicer facilities and half the guards should
- 43:06Speaker 1: be fired, you know, and a majority of the people
- 43:12Speaker 1: in our prisons are in there for things they should
- 43:14Speaker 1: not be in there for. Why Because they're private prisons
- 43:18Speaker 1: and we have to keep them full so their owners
- 43:21Speaker 1: will get a check. I don't Half the people in
- 43:26Speaker 1: prison should not be in prison. For instance, no one
- 43:28Speaker 1: should be in prison for a drug crime, nobody unless
- 43:32Speaker 1: someone was hurt in the commission of that crime. No
- 43:35Speaker 1: one should be in jail for selling drugs, buying drugs,
- 43:39Speaker 1: arranging for drugs to be sold. No one should be
- 43:42Speaker 1: in prison for that. Those are not They should go
- 43:45Speaker 1: to rehab whatever it might be. No one, no drug addict,
- 43:51Speaker 1: should be in prison. If someone was arrested for a
- 43:55Speaker 1: crime and it's not a crime where someone got hurt,
- 43:59Speaker 1: if it was burglary or whatever, and they're a drug addict,
- 44:03Speaker 1: they should go to rehab, not to prison. So do
- 44:08Speaker 1: I want to close prisons. I do. Actually, something's wrong
- 44:12Speaker 1: that in our country we need more prisons than any
- 44:15Speaker 1: other country. That something's wrong there, okay, And what's wrong
- 44:21Speaker 1: is we privatize them. Prisons should be run by the
- 44:26Speaker 1: state and the federal government. They should not be hell holes.
- 44:30Speaker 1: Their job should be rehabilitation, not incarceration. The job of
- 44:35Speaker 1: prisons right now is strictly incarceration period, no rehabilitation at all,
- 44:41Speaker 1: strictly incarceration. That's wrong. The federal government and the states
- 44:47Speaker 1: should own the prisons. They should not be hell holes
- 44:51Speaker 1: that half the guards should be fired and most of
- 44:53Speaker 1: the people shouldn't be in them period period. If do
- 45:01Speaker 1: you know how many women are in prison right now
- 45:03Speaker 1: because they killed their abusers. They shouldn't be coral. They
- 45:09Speaker 1: committed murder. It's self defense. If you are a woman
- 45:14Speaker 1: that is being beaten and abused on a daily basis
- 45:16Speaker 1: by a man and he wakes up dead one day,
- 45:20Speaker 1: Sela Gere, and I mean it justifiable homicide. So yeah,
- 45:28Speaker 1: we should do away with prisons. We don't need as
- 45:30Speaker 1: many as we've got. And we should really do away
- 45:33Speaker 1: with private prisons. We do not need private prisons. So
- 45:39Speaker 1: read the room, democrats, and I'm speaking to you my
- 45:44Speaker 1: listeners who are commenting in the chat room, and you're like, no, well,
- 45:48Speaker 1: read the room. It is time to swing to the
- 45:52Speaker 1: far left, because the far left isn't that far left.
- 45:57Speaker 1: We have now been dumbed down, Democrats have been our
- 46:01Speaker 1: expectations have been lowered about what we should expect from government.
- 46:06Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders has not been dumbed down. Everything Bernie Sanders says,
- 46:11Speaker 1: I agree with everything. He's a socialist. Bernie Sanders is
- 46:16Speaker 1: a democratic socialist. There's no two ways about it. And
- 46:20Speaker 1: everything he says, I agree with. Why are we paying
- 46:24Speaker 1: such a fortune for drugs? Why all drug companies should
- 46:28Speaker 1: be run by the government. If the people need drugs,
- 46:32Speaker 1: then the drug companies should be run by the government,
- 46:34Speaker 1: and there should be no profit margins. They shouldn't be
- 46:37Speaker 1: for profit industries. Drugs, prescription drugs should not be a
- 46:43Speaker 1: for profit business. Period. No one should profit off of
- 46:47Speaker 1: someone else's sickness. No one should have to face cancer
- 46:53Speaker 1: and not be able to afford a drug that is
- 46:54Speaker 1: out there for them and so they can't take it
- 46:57Speaker 1: unless they raise it through GoFundMe or something. No one
- 47:00Speaker 1: should have to sell their house to give the money
- 47:02Speaker 1: to a drug company to buy a drug for their illness.
- 47:05Speaker 1: Nobody ever, anywhere. Drugs should not be for profit. Prison
- 47:13Speaker 1: should not be for profit. Healthcare should not be for profit.
- 47:19Speaker 1: Do you see where we're going with this. Food should
- 47:23Speaker 1: not be for profit. Now, that doesn't mean farmers shouldn't
- 47:28Speaker 1: get paid and grocery store employees shouldn't get paid. That's
- 47:31Speaker 1: not what I'm saying. I'm saying the head of Kroger
- 47:35Speaker 1: shouldn't be a millionaire. The head of Smiths, the head
- 47:39Speaker 1: of Vond's, the head of Pigly Wiggly or the pig
- 47:42Speaker 1: as they call it. Those people should not be millionaires.
- 47:45Speaker 1: There shouldn't be enough money in groceries to make anybody
- 47:48Speaker 1: a millionaire. If everybody needs food, and they do, then
- 47:54Speaker 1: there should be no profit margin in it. All of
- 47:58Speaker 1: the cost should be covered. And those costs include paying
- 48:01Speaker 1: your employees and yes, paying some more than others, all
- 48:05Speaker 1: of that. But should there be profit. No, because the
- 48:12Speaker 1: profit should be reinvested into the product. The profit should
- 48:16Speaker 1: be reinvested into the store, the product should be The
- 48:19Speaker 1: profit should be reinvested to make the place nicer, to
- 48:23Speaker 1: make more selection, to pay the farmers more, not to
- 48:28Speaker 1: pay some CEO somewhere. So am I a socialist? Yeah?
- 48:35Speaker 1: I guess I sound like one, and so do young people.
- 48:40Speaker 1: So if Democrats want to win, they better get off
- 48:42Speaker 1: this Democratic socialism is bad. It's what young people want,
- 48:49Speaker 1: and they want it for a reason because they've tried
- 48:51Speaker 1: it our way. Okay, I'm sixty three My generation is
- 48:58Speaker 1: still doing things like the generation before it. We are
- 49:02Speaker 1: still everything in our country is set up the same
- 49:05Speaker 1: as it was in the nineteen twenties. And kids are
- 49:09Speaker 1: tired of that. They don't want it anymore. They want
- 49:13Speaker 1: something new, and they want someone new. And I can't
- 49:18Speaker 1: blame them. I do too. This system is not working.
- 49:23Speaker 1: It's not working for me, it's certainly not working for you.
- 49:26Speaker 1: No one should make a trillion dollars while there are
- 49:31Speaker 1: other people starving. They just shouldn't happen. Period. No one
- 49:38Speaker 1: should be worth a billion dollars when the average salary
- 49:42Speaker 1: is sixty two thousand. Nobody. No one works that hard, period. Ah,
- 49:50Speaker 1: they're a self made billionaire. No one's a self made billionaire.
- 49:54Speaker 1: Someone tried to tell me Oprah is a self made billionaire. No,
- 49:57Speaker 1: she's not. Tyler Perry has made her a shit ton
- 50:00Speaker 1: money with his movies and acquiring his network, own the
- 50:04Speaker 1: own network has made her a ship ton of money.
- 50:06Speaker 1: And that's a whole lot of people doing a whole
- 50:08Speaker 1: lot of shows. Oprah has not single handedly made her billions.
- 50:13Speaker 1: She has used other people to get the money. She's
- 50:18Speaker 1: not self made. Many people made her money. No one
- 50:24Speaker 1: is a self made billionaire. No one worked one hundred
- 50:29Speaker 1: hours a week until they finally had a billion dollars.
- 50:32Speaker 1: It doesn't happen. Doesn't happen. The doc market can make
- 50:36Speaker 1: you it fower by money around you see what I'm saying.
- 50:44Speaker 5: Read the room, sat stay, No, it's show side.
- 51:06Speaker 1: Yeah. I agree. We have a revenge system of justice
- 51:09Speaker 1: and it's not justice. It's not justice. Our justice system
- 51:12Speaker 1: is woefully broken. There's no justice in our system. They're
- 51:17Speaker 1: just not villains walk away all the time while poor
- 51:21Speaker 1: people are underrepresented. People go to jail for things they
- 51:24Speaker 1: should not go to jail for and spend way too
- 51:27Speaker 1: much time. I watch a show, you know, I watch
- 51:29Speaker 1: all these murdered death kill shows. I watch this show
- 51:32Speaker 1: about wrongly convicted people and how the Innocence Project can
- 51:36Speaker 1: go to a judge with clear evidence that this person
- 51:40Speaker 1: is innocent and they still don't get a new trial. Nope,
- 51:44Speaker 1: they had a judge, they had a jury, they were
- 51:46Speaker 1: found guilty. That's that the justice system isn't interested in justice.
- 51:52Speaker 1: The backlog to test DNA for people in jail is
- 51:56Speaker 1: years long. Why it should all be tested with a
- 52:00Speaker 1: month Because it exonerates black people that's why, because it
- 52:06Speaker 1: leads young black people out of jail. That's why our
- 52:12Speaker 1: prison system is racist. Look, one of my friends is
- 52:16Speaker 1: a prison guard, and the things he tells me makes
- 52:20Speaker 1: me realize our prison system is woefully broken, just woefully broken,
- 52:27Speaker 1: so there's no justice in it. So if I hear
- 52:30Speaker 1: a democratic socialist say we need to get rid of
- 52:32Speaker 1: prisons as they are now, we do need to get
- 52:35Speaker 1: rid of prisons, you know, some hell hole with you know. Look,
- 52:40Speaker 1: I despise Andrew Tait and I he should rotten fucking hell.
- 52:44Speaker 1: But should he have potable water that's drinkable? Yes? Should
- 52:49Speaker 1: his cell have rats in it? No? You know, should
- 52:53Speaker 1: he have access to certain things books that yes? You know,
- 52:59Speaker 1: you can hunt's someone for a crime, but still treat
- 53:02Speaker 1: them with some humanity. We don't. We don't care you
- 53:08Speaker 1: and I don't care. You hear about a person going
- 53:12Speaker 1: to jail, You don't care what their life is going
- 53:14Speaker 1: to be like because you think, well, if you don't
- 53:16Speaker 1: want to live in those conditions, you shouldn't commit a crime.
- 53:18Speaker 1: There are so many people in jail that did not
- 53:21Speaker 1: commit crimes, or the crimes are stupid, like money crimes.
- 53:27Speaker 1: No one should be in jail for a money crime
- 53:29Speaker 1: at all. None. They should have to pay the money back.
- 53:34Speaker 1: They should have to be working. They shouldn't be in jail.
- 53:39Speaker 1: You want to go to jail quickie quickly and bezzel
- 53:41Speaker 1: from a rich person, steal from a rich person, ask
- 53:45Speaker 1: Bernie Madoff, you'll be in jail that fast. Kill a
- 53:49Speaker 1: poor person, you might be gout in two years, four years.
- 53:53Speaker 1: I saw one of my shows yesterday. This guy killed
- 53:56Speaker 1: his wife and his two children. He got out of
- 53:59Speaker 1: jail in eleven years. Hattie robbed money from a town elder.
- 54:05Speaker 1: Probably go to jail for life. So yeah, Democrats need
- 54:11Speaker 1: to read the room if they want to win, and
- 54:13Speaker 1: the room is saying it's time for radical change. Inside
- 54:16Speaker 1: the Democratic Party. Democrats can even embrace Bernie Sanders. Many
- 54:22Speaker 1: Democrats cannot even embrace him. I think Bernie Sanders should
- 54:25Speaker 1: have been president twenty years ago. What's her name? Elizabeth Warren?
- 54:31Speaker 1: Elizabeth Warren is a socialist. She may not call herself
- 54:33Speaker 1: a socialist, but she's a socialist. People like Elizabeth Warren
- 54:38Speaker 1: and Bernie Sanders, they should be in power. People that
- 54:43Speaker 1: say drug companies should not make this kind of profit.
- 54:47Speaker 1: People that say healthcare should be free for all people
- 54:51Speaker 1: that say the government should subsidize a ten thousand dollars
- 54:54Speaker 1: a year electric or a ten thousand dollars total price
- 54:57Speaker 1: electric vehicle, so then everybody could forward one. Bernie Sanders
- 55:03Speaker 1: is for rent control. I'm for rent control. You know,
- 55:08Speaker 1: landlords they just rape you. They charge you whatever they
- 55:11Speaker 1: want to charge you. Oh. I was going to do
- 55:14Speaker 1: this as a topic today. Do you know that, now
- 55:17Speaker 1: that work from home has been a thing, there are
- 55:18Speaker 1: landlords in San Francisco trying to charge people two hundred
- 55:22Speaker 1: dollars more on their rent if they work from home.
- 55:25Speaker 1: I am not making this up. If a landlord finds
- 55:28Speaker 1: out you are working from home in San Francisco, certain
- 55:32Speaker 1: landlords now want to charge two hundred dollars a month
- 55:35Speaker 1: more because you're using it as an office. It's your home.
- 55:41Speaker 1: I think you should be able to do whatever the
- 55:42Speaker 1: fuck you want to up in it. But landlords are saying, no,
- 55:46Speaker 1: if you work from home, we want more money. Read
- 55:50Speaker 1: the room. Kids don't want that. Democrats don't you know,
- 55:55Speaker 1: socialists don't want that. That's what I'm saying about. Read
- 56:01Speaker 1: the room. Young people are yearning for more change than
- 56:05Speaker 1: we have given them, you know, you know, yes, Elizabeth
- 56:10Speaker 1: Warren is an economist and she's very smart, very very smart.
- 56:15Speaker 1: Have you heard about the podcast about Ron Owen's daughter,
- 56:17Speaker 1: Laura Owens. Oh, don't get me into the Please don't
- 56:21Speaker 1: pull me into the Ron Owens story. You know, I
- 56:25Speaker 1: used to envy Ron Owens. He had the best spot
- 56:29Speaker 1: on kg O radio. He made the most money of
- 56:32Speaker 1: anyone on kg O radio, and I wanted to be
- 56:36Speaker 1: ron Owens. Now that he's retired, he's had to file
- 56:39Speaker 1: bankruptcy a few times. His daughter continually scams men about
- 56:44Speaker 1: being pregnant and scams them for money and all kinds
- 56:47Speaker 1: of things, and he is probably going to go to
- 56:50Speaker 1: jail for it. And it made me. You know, I've
- 56:55Speaker 1: been thinking a lot about that. I have a friend
- 56:56Speaker 1: named Oliver. He helped me do some projects back in
- 56:59Speaker 1: Long each and at the time he wasn't really employed
- 57:02Speaker 1: that much and wasn't dating. And now he's had a
- 57:06Speaker 1: husband for fifteen years. They adopted a child who is
- 57:09Speaker 1: now almost a teenager. They're taking vacations. He works for Apple,
- 57:15Speaker 1: and I thought his life turned out better than yours.
- 57:20Speaker 1: And I've been saying that a lot about people from
- 57:22Speaker 1: my past where Well, like my friend Ken, who doesn't
- 57:25Speaker 1: speak to me because I told him he was an
- 57:27Speaker 1: alcoholic and needed an intervention. He's got a husband. He
- 57:31Speaker 1: lives in a rent control department on Santa Monica Beach
- 57:34Speaker 1: on the beach on the thirteenth floor for twelve for
- 57:38Speaker 1: fourteen hundred dollars a month for a one bedroom rent
- 57:41Speaker 1: controlled now for thirty plus years. The buildings offered them
- 57:45Speaker 1: three hundred thousand dollars to move, and they said no,
- 57:49Speaker 1: because when they move, they can charge eight nine thousand
- 57:52Speaker 1: a month for that unit. And I thought, well, he
- 57:56Speaker 1: may be an alcoholic that just works at AT and T Wireless,
- 57:59Speaker 1: but he's got a pen, he's got a husband, he
- 58:03Speaker 1: has his dog and his life and a beautiful beachfront house.
- 58:06Speaker 1: He ended up better than you. And I've been doing
- 58:09Speaker 1: that a lot the last week. Well, they ended up
- 58:11Speaker 1: better than You're alone in Las Vegas in the heat.
- 58:14Speaker 1: You know, you don't have a ton of money, And
- 58:16Speaker 1: and I realized that I'm gauging my life by the
- 58:19Speaker 1: wrong standard. You know, I've had an extraordinary life and
- 58:23Speaker 1: just a life full of so many experiences that Ken
- 58:26Speaker 1: will never have. That Oliver will never have just incredible
- 58:31Speaker 1: once in a lifetime experiences that I have, like every day.
- 58:36Speaker 1: I've touched a lot of a lot of men. So
- 58:39Speaker 1: I don't give so I don't want to be long
- 58:42Speaker 1: on this. I have coralbe Do you want to be
- 58:45Speaker 1: full to hurt anybuddy or a lot of people? Most
