Why Names Matter

| Hello, y'all. | |
| Dennis Prager here. | |
| The top boy's name in 2019 was Oliver. | |
| So, instead of... | |
| So, Johnny, why do you want to be when you grow up? | |
| I'll have to do Ollie. | |
| Ollie, why do you want to be when you grow up? | |
| Alan is not in the top 100. How do you like that? | |
| Alan is no longer there. | |
| And if Dennis is not... | |
| Maybe there are three Dennis names last year. | |
| But Alan? | |
| I was shocked about Alan. | |
| Even John... | |
| It's not on the list. | |
| John was not in the top hundred. | |
| That's a change. | |
| It did have a long run. | |
| That is a very... | |
| Arlo is on. | |
| You know any Arlos? | |
| It does. | |
| USA Today. | |
| Give me a foot massage or give me death. | |
| The contempt that the people who make a living have for the people who are without work, the left... | |
| See, I know this because I studied communism. | |
| They use workers to gain power. | |
| Workers buy their lies and vote for them. | |
| But they have utter contempt for workers. | |
| Marx had utter contempt for workers. | |
| This has always been your theme. | |
| Marx, who sat in a library his whole life, had utter contempt for people who worked. | |
| When he met them? | |
| Yes. | |
| He treated them terribly. | |
| Was that in Paul Johnson's Intellectuals? | |
| Great book. | |
| I'm just finishing a book, 363 pages, and it is about Virginia Hall. | |
| You've never heard of Virginia Hall, have you? | |
| Right. | |
| Most decorated woman in World War II in intelligence. | |
| She ran anti-Nazi operations in France. | |
| An amazing... | |
| There is something I always knew, but I didn't know it as much until the recent past. | |
| And you're going to think, Dennis, give me a break. | |
| You're a bright guy. | |
| You didn't know this? | |
| You know what it is in life? | |
| There's knowing and there's knowing. | |
| Right? | |
| If you know, everybody knows that fire is painful if it touches your skin. | |
| But you know it a lot better if fire touches your skin. | |
| Right? | |
| I mean, so you knew it. | |
| Everybody knows it. | |
| But there's a knowing. | |
| I don't know what to make of it, but I simply look at reality. | |
| People are born with natures. | |
| This woman, Virginia Hall, just marched to the beat of a different drummer. | |
| And that's the way it is. | |
| But you can't rely on the rare, spectacular person with courage for society to survive. | |
| You have to... | |
| Even if it's not your nature, you have to develop good traits. | |
| If it's your nature, it's easier. | |
| Andrei Sakharov, the great Soviet dissident, he could not abide by lies. | |
| He just couldn't. | |
| Most Soviet citizens swam in the world of lies. | |
| Americans are swimming in the world of lies with the mainstream media. | |
| And have less excuse because... | |
| You can hear anti-media things all the time and read them all the time. | |
| Soviet citizens could not. | |
| Anyway, what was it a... | |
| An unknown woman? | |
| I gotta get, I'll get you the name. | |
| Just about done. | |
| Give me a foot massage or give me death. | |
| The contempt for the workers on the part of the left is so deep. | |
| And nobody talks about it. | |
| You want to go to work? | |
| Oh, you want your nails done. | |
| Says a woman who, is it a woman? | |
| Yeah, Patricia Murphy. | |
| Who's Patricia Murphy? | |
| Is she a former Republican strategist too? | |
| I love that. | |
| She is a political columnist and correspondent based in Atlanta. | |
| Dying for cute toes would be a hilarious state motto if the situation here weren't also so serious. | |
| This is what they think of those of you who want to go to work. | |
| It's people who want their toes done. | |
| God, am I proud to be a Republican and a conservative now. | |
| It has all become as clear as possible. | |
| We are less frightened. | |
| We are less panicky. | |
| We are more rational. | |
| We are more decent. | |
| We care about the people who are suffering. | |
| Oh, but we care about death. | |
| Everybody cares about death. | |
| That's a given. | |
| So the question is, what do you do? | |
| Compound the death? | |
| Which, by the way, in this country is 50% nursing homes. | |
