Credit refundable, which means it is paid in a check to those who don't owe any income tax.
The Internal Revenue Service in July started paying part of the credit in monthly checks.
All the better to get recipients hooked.
Hooked, get it?
Addicted.
On regular government payments.
All of this means that what started as a $500 political SOP in the 1990s is no longer really a tax credit.
It is kicked free of any connection to income or taxes and is now a full-fledged entitlement.
The credit traditionally phased in as parents earned a modest amount of income, an attempt to ensure the benefit flowed to families with a working parent, No longer.
Democrats say a fully refundable benefit will cut child poverty in half.
But Robert Doerr, who ran welfare programs in New York, has warned on these pages about the risks of sending families checks without any insight into the needs or circumstances of a household.
Checks that make families appear less poor on paper are no accomplishment if children are left in awful suffering, such as living with a parent who is an untreated mental illness or addiction.
Taxpayers should understand the magnitude of the benefits.
I will continue by reading that to you.
They don't care about our country.

you Jen Psaki, the pressure is getting to her, questioned by Peter Doocy, a famous clip already, cut number 11. Does the president have a sense that most of the criticism is not of leaving Afghanistan, it's the way that he has ordered it to happen, by pulling the troops before getting these Americans who are now stranded?
Does he have a sense of that?
First of all, I think it's irresponsible to say Americans are stranded.
They are not.
We are committed to bringing Americans who want to come home, home.
We are in touch with them via phone, via text, via email, via any way that we can possibly reach Americans.
Jake Tapper thinks they're stranded on CNN cut number four.
Look, I understand.
That people are working long hours in the White House, the National Security Council, State Department, Pentagon, and over in Kabul to get Americans out of that country.
And I understand the White House wanting to reassure the nation that all Americans will ultimately be evacuated, but there are no doubt Americans...
Who feel stranded in Afghanistan right now?
Of course there are.
It's absurd for the White House, and it tells you something about Joe Biden.
Britt Hume was on with our friend Guy Benson on his radio show yesterday, said this, cut number one.
But anybody who ever heard him speak for any length of time could tell this guy, this was not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
And, you know, he could talk forever and was famous for it.
But you never had the sense that he was terribly smart.
And on top of that, now he's manifestly senile.
And between those two things, this is a man with very, very severe limitations, who is well too old, in my opinion, to be the President of the United States.

What the Democrats are doing to this country is ruining it.
The Democratic Party is ruining the United States of America because it's controlled by the left, and the left ruins everything it touches.
To deny that is to engage in wishful thinking, and it's inexcusable.
It means you don't have the courage to say the left is evil.
The left is evil.
The left everywhere is evil, not liberals.
Liberals are naive.
Liberals often lack courage politically.
They're often wonderful individuals.
I love some of them, personally.
But they won't acknowledge, because it's very hard to stare at evil.
To destroy America, the last best hope of mankind.
If that's not evil, then I need a definition of evil.
So I'm very specific in what I mean by evil in this case.
They're destroying this country.
Intentionally.
Taxpayers should understand the magnitude of the benefits.
This is the Wall Street Journal editorial.
About the new entitlements that they are giving for children, basic income for families with children, basic income for all families.
Before the expansion, the average child credit for a family, Below 100% of the poverty line was about $975.
Now it's $5,421.
That comes on top of other transfer programs such as food stamps and the earned income tax credit.
The new child entitlement will reach well into the middle class, which is part of the political goal.
Of course.
That's the end of democracy when people understand that they could vote for politicians who will give them money.
That's it.
It's over.
Then nobody votes for what's better for the country.
They vote for how do I get more money.
A couple earning $100,000 that has three children ages 7, 4, and 2 would be eligible for $10,200.
That's a couple earning $100,000.
They would get $10,200 in payments.
The original tax credit rationale was to defray the costs of raising young children.
But the Democratic bill also creates new entitlements for a separate child care program plus paid family leave and universal pre-K education.
The only political cautionary word on all of this has come from Democratic Senator Joe Manchin, who was warned about severing the benefit from work.
He's right, but his party doesn't want to hear it.
I think that raising children is work, said Senator Sherrod Brown in HuffPost.
But paid employment has been the anchor of welfare progress, because the dignity and order of stable work is the most reliable path out of poverty.
The editorial concludes, topping all of this off is the blatant fiscal dishonesty.
Democrats end the payments after 2025 so that they can make them fit in their 10-year budget window.
This accounting fiction, aka lie, lets Democrats pretend the credits cost only roughly $556 billion over 10 years.
The real cost will be twice that.
In other words, over a trillion dollars.
Another trillion.
Millions of Americans have received checks from the IRS this year, and no doubt they like the money.
Now, listen, this is the key to all of it.
But this is like free starter chips at the casino.
The point is to condition American families to government benefits before the middle-class bill arrives in the future in the form of higher payroll, Value-added or energy taxes.
There is no free entitlement state.
That is exactly right.
Yep, my friends, that's the story.
Get as many Americans hooked on free money as possible and you have a guaranteed Democratic vote and then the Republicans are attacked.
For being mean and not caring for the poor and the middle class.
That's how it works.
Maria in San Diego, California.
Hello.
Good morning.
How are you?
I'm well, thank you.
Yes, I am a U.S. citizen, but I was born in Panama.
My family's in Panama.
I spoke to my brother this morning and there's 19,000 agents between Colombia and Panama coming to the good U.S. aid of aid.
How do you like that?
How does he know that?
It's all over the news in Panama.
19,000?
Yes.
So, explain to me Haiti is on an island shared with Dominican Republic.
So what does that have to do with Colombia?
Because it's easier for them to come by foot, I guess, and cheaper.
So what do they do?
Do they sail to Colombia and then fly to the U.S.? No, they come by land.
Well, they can't come by land because they're separated by water.
Well, once they're in the continent, they just walk up here.
They just have to make the cross across the ocean.
Oh, then they go through Central America, crossing the Panama Canal.
Correct.
I see.
Okay, that is a very long trip.
I need to bring to your attention, folks, how exactly they're doing this.
The Biden meanness to Haitians is something I ought to talk about.

Any progress made in any court, in any judge's courtroom in the United States with regard to COVID rights?
I cannot.
Well, not that much.
I mean, obviously the Supreme Court has recognized some religious liberties issues, but ironically enough, Dennis, there are actually some cases that go back to the beginning of this year where, of all things, federal...
Prisoners have sued for early release from prison because of the COVID outbreak in the prisons where they resided.
And the judges denied their claim for early release because the prisoners had previously contracted and recovered from COVID. So the doctors actually said, because you've gotten COVID and recovered, you are more protected than the average inmate and denied their claim.
I guess I'm just asking to be treated by my employer as well as federal prisoners get treated by the federal courts.
Yeah, well, stay with me because I don't know if courts will come through for liberty.

Hello, my friends.
Dennis Prager with Professor Todd Zwicky, professor of law at George Mason University.
He sued his university, demanded that he get a vaccination, even though he had already had COVID. By the way, there is a...
I don't know if you noticed, but at the Wall Street Journal article, your original one...
So, I don't know, do you read comments on pieces you write...
I do not.
I do.
I read comments on every article I read.
I find them as important as the article.
So I read the comments on your article that you didn't even read.
So there was one guy who...
No, I don't read all.
There were like 1,200.
I didn't read all 1,200.
But there was a guy who wrote, Professor Zewicki is lying through his teeth.
The data out of Israel show that you are not as protected by having had COVID as by having had the vaccine.
The guy gave no basis, no citation.
I never heard of that.
And I'm curious if that was an argument that you heard.
I'm surprised you had made that argument because even back at that time in August, it was known that vaccines were much more prone to breakthrough infections than natural immunity.
And since that time, a massive study has come out of Israel just a few weeks ago that found that vaccine breakthrough infections are 13 times more likely for any infection.
Twenty-seven more times likely that a vaccine breakthrough infection would than the natural immunity, and eight times higher risk of hospitalization for a vaccine breakthrough infection compared to natural immunity.
And so that argument is pretty much put to rest.
The Israeli data is pretty much considered to be definitive on the question at this point.
While at some point we thought vaccines might be as protective as natural immunity, What we've discovered now that the vaccines have been in effect for a while, is natural immunity over and over and over again now has shown to be more durable, more protective, and better against variants.
Right.
That's exactly what I know.
I'm only noting this so that my listeners know the number of Americans who live in an alternate reality In other words, a world of lies.
The man's name, according to here, Mark Geyser, G-E-Y-Z-E-R. The dear professor is lying through his teeth.
The research from Israel has shown that the natural immunity diminishes fast in a matter of months, and the dear professor has contracted the disease over a year ago.
So, the man made this up.
He literally made it up.
It would appear to me, am I right or wrong, that based on what you just said, the man made this up.
He clearly made it up, Dennis.
And what is so wicked about that is they want to make stuff up, false things to force me to undergo a completely unnecessary medical treatment that not only is risky at the same level as everybody else,
it's even more risky for somebody who has recovered from COVID. A recent study, In nature, scientific research found that the odds of being hospitalized or sent to the emergency room after being vaccinated with one shot if you've recovered from COVID is 6.8% compared to 0.6% for somebody who's never had COVID. So we're talking 11 times higher risk for a vaccine that provides me with literally
no benefit.
And they're making things up, just lying, in order to do this to fellow Americans.
I think it really makes my blood boil.
It's really despicable that somebody would be that irresponsible to spread that kind of information when all it does is damage other people for no good reason.
Here's another response to you by someone named Palmer Brown.
What a drama queen.
Referring to you.
That's why I think it's fascinating to read comments.
It does, because it gives you an insight into what the public thinks.
And these are subscribers to the Wall Street Journal.
These are not trolls.
Wearing a mask and exercising reasonable social measures does not keep you from performing your job.
The university is offering reasonable accommodation for you, if you choose.
That's you, professor.
If you choose not to get the vaccine, you have three options.
Exercise responsibility for yourself and others and get the vaccine.
Don't get the vaccine, but wear a mask and adhere to safety protocols they have outlined.
Three, seek employment elsewhere.
What's your comment to that?
Well, again, I'm fortunate that unlike millions, it's estimated that about 120 million Americans have recovered from COVID or COVID survivors.
And a lot of these, of course, are first responders, doctors, nurses, police officers, that sort of thing.
I was fortunate enough that my university ended up giving me a medical exemption and they ended up changing the rules so that essentially everybody has to wear a mask and what's going to be stigmatized and disadvantaged and that sort of thing.
But now we're talking about tens of millions of Americans are basically being forced into this position of getting an unnecessary and risky medical treatment that aren't getting medical exemptions, which I was fortunate enough to get after I wrote that article.
And they are basically being forced to choose between their employer and their job.
And in my case, You know, my doctor, my immunologist, the PhD immunologist who is, you know, prominent immunologist, was saying, dude, this man cannot be vaccinated, he doesn't need to be vaccinated because of natural immunity.
And some mid-level bureaucrats in the George Mason Human Resources Department were basically promulgating this one-size-fits-all policy.
And this is what they're doing to people, is people are basically being forced to ignore their doctor's advice.
So wait, has George Mason dropped the requirement of everybody being vaccinated?
No, no, you, I know.
But has they dropped it in general?
Okay, hold on.
I'm blown away.
So one man gets it because he brought a lawsuit?
We'll be back.

All right, everybody.
I'm on with a professor of law at George Mason University, Todd Zwicky.
He sued his university when they said everybody had to get vaccinated, even those who had COVID. I assume it's the first time in history, by the way, Professor, that people are arguing that it is better to get a vaccine than to actually have immunity from the virus itself.
I mean it.
We live in the age of the lie, so it's not shocking.
What bothers me, though, is they made an exception for you.
Does that mean that in order for a university or any institution to change, every single individual must bring a lawsuit?
Yeah, it does seem like that's one lesson from this experience, is that people who have the ability and the willingness to make trouble might be able to do it.
Even in some cases, universities still don't give in in that situation.
But it worked for me, and I'm not sure, you know, sort of what was going on with the university when they decided to give me the exemption.
But I got it, and I know a lot of other people who didn't.
Right, so there's little hope.
We can't have two million lawsuits.
I mean, there's probably more people between faculty and students at universities.
So there's almost nothing to be learned from your case other than one man can prevail who's a fighting professor.
Well, in my case, the university gave in Dennis.
But as I said, there are other cases going on.
The New Civil Liberties Alliance now has a case involving Michigan State University.
And I think you alluded to the point earlier, Dennis, which is the key here is eventually judges have to step up.
Yeah, but they won't.
Okay, judges and cowardice are somewhat synonymous in America today.
Oh, no, so are professors, and so is every profession.
There's nothing distinctive about judicial cowardice.
There's medical cowardice and legal cowardice.
That's the human condition in a nutshell, but I expected better from Americans, and I was naive about that, apparently.
So I don't even know what can be done.
So let me understand.
Prior to your winning, you did not have to wear a mask if you were vaccinated?
Right, exactly.
What happened was, at the time I brought my lawsuit...
If you were vaccinated, you didn't have to wear a mask.
You didn't have to socially distance, they said, and that sort of thing.
And after I filed my lawsuit, it changed the policy at the university.
Right.
So are you like the most hated man on campus?
I am not.
Not at my campus.
All right.
Anyway, listen, I got to go.
I thank you.

We'll see you next time.
I welcome you to the Dennis Prager Show.
Another report out about how young people are panicked.
As it's put in this CBS report, new study finds growing number of young people suffering from climate change anxiety.
It's an interesting question.
I have two sons.
And stepsons, none of them are suffering from climate change anxiety.
Now, let me ask you a question.
Who are luckier?
The children of adults who have panicked their children about having no future?
Or the children of parents Who have said this is largely hysteria.
Your future, at least insofar as climate change is concerned, is pretty secure.
Your future insofar as your freedom is concerned, that's actually worth worrying about.
One almost wonders whether the climate change hysteria is a way of producing a smokescreen over the deprivation of Americans of their freedom.
Like free speech, the most important freedom of all.
Oh, you don't have to worry about being deprived of free speech.
You have to worry about the existential threat of global warming.
Now, since the existential threat of global warming precedes the rapid decline in free speech in this country, I don't think it is a smokescreen.
It does serve such, however.
But it is interesting to find out what is it with regard to society, life in general, that scares your children.
Why would you want to produce scared children?
So the article is a case study in the power of media and the left, which is the same thing.
A new study finds a growing number of young people are suffering from anxiety about climate change.
It is quite worrying, and it makes me think about our future, and it's definitely not a place that I want my kids to live in, one student said.
Mm-hmm.
10,000 young adults from 10 countries were asked how they feel about climate change.
Researcher Caroline Hickman said, Children started telling us...
That they were feeling betrayed and abandoned and they felt that governments were lying about the effectiveness of the action they were taking to address the climate emergency.
What countries are these people living in?
Most governments are freaked out about it.
What are they talking about?
Unless you are governed in one of the handful of countries that has a conservative government The government is going crazy to try to meet the hysteria, to address the hysteria over climate change.
So here's the irony.
They're angry at their parents' generation for not doing enough.
The parents deserve the anger because they've allowed their kids to be panicked.
Researchers from the University of Bath say 84% of 16- to 25-year-olds surveyed are at least somewhat worried about climate change.
Well, that doesn't mean a thing.
60% say they are very, this means something.
60% say they are very or extremely worried about the climate crisis.
This is worrying.
75% say the future is frightening.
Well, insofar as freedom is concerned, it might be.
But that's not what they mean.
A concerned student said, that's the most scary bit, really.
What's going to happen in future generations down the line?
It reminds me of, what was the movie?
Which was the Woody Allen movie?
Was it Annie Hall?
Where it starts off with Woody Allen as like a 10-year-old.
And he's in the psychiatrist's office with his mother.
And he's talking about...
How upset he is that in a few billion years the sun will cease to exist.
It will explode.
And that will end all life.
And his mother says something to the effect, Alfie!
I think that was, or Alvie.
Alvie, I think.
Alvie!
You should worry more about your homework.
I didn't worry about homework either, as it happens, but she's right.
Researchers say the only cure for climate anxiety is governments around the world taking real action to protect the environment.
The researchers, this is what you call non-biased researchers.
Four in ten young people around the world are hesitant to have children as a result of the climate crisis.
That's something I cover often.
And so it ends the article.
Here's another one for you.
So there was...
Something he read.
Something he read, huh?
The universe is expanding.
The universe is expanding?
Well, the universe is everything.
And if it's expanding, someday it will break apart and that will be the end of everything.
What is that your business?
He stopped doing his homework.
What's the point?
What has the universe got to do with it?
You're here in Brooklyn.
Brooklyn is not expanding.
It won't be expanding for billions of years yet, Alvy.
And we've got to try and enjoy ourselves while we're here, huh?
It wasn't the sun, it was the universe.
Okay, but I got it right.
Oh, my God.
So I yesterday spoke about global warming and some other context, and it got placed on Twitter.
And here are the reactions by people to my saying I'm really not worried about this terribly, that human ingenuity will solve it just like air conditioning solved heat until now.
So here's an example of a response on Twitter.
And the extremes of weather, drought and excessive rains interrupting the food supply, massive famine and social upheaval, massive changes in ocean currents and water temp, and its effects on plankton and photosynthetic organisms in our oceans, millions, possibly billions dying?
Wow.
If I didn't have contempt for these people, I would have pity for them.
Can't tell you how much sleep people lose over the effects on plankton and photosynthetic organisms in our oceans.
Possibly billions dying.
Billions dying.
Because you have the audacity to fill your car with gasoline.
Yes, let's see here.
The comments on the video of me that was put up, you have to read them.
Okay, well, it's along that line.
They're all freaked out.
Just freaked out.
And none of them dealt with my challenge about nuclear power.
Why don't we use nuclear power if you really believe that fossil fuel is so damaging?
So let me repeat something that needs to be repeated on a daily basis.
I want you to understand, in the healthiest time in history, obviously COVID notwithstanding, but it's still the healthiest time in history, people living longer just about everywhere on Earth than 100 years ago, way longer, better quality of life physically, Far more money than people have had in the past.
Far more food than people have had in the past.
And at that time, and largely, an incredible amount of peace on Earth.
And kids are freaked out.
Freaked out.
Kids are panicked.
Kids have been deprived of anything to believe in.
America's past is disgraceful.
The American flag represents intolerance, bigotry, hatred, white supremacy.
I read to you about the teachers who wouldn't even allow the American flag in their classroom.
By the way, ten years ago I read to you about colleges that took down flags from their campuses.
Your past is vile and your future is vile.

But Biden is taking a hit and Democrats are trying to stay clear from him.
The caller in the last hour said, where's Kamala?
Kamala is doing her best to stay clear of Joe Biden.
I mean, her polls stink, but combined...
Both of them combined.
I guess it's extra stinky together because both of them stink.
And the funny thing is, her polls are worse than his, and she wants to be nowhere near this cat.
But people are finding out that this Build Back Better thing is a socialist agenda, and the $3.5 trillion partisan wish list that the Democrats are wanting is starting to turn people off because people are starting to realize that the economic pain is going to be felt at home.
Average, everyday Americans We're going to feel that pain.
Overall, the poll found that Biden's net approval averages negative seven.
That means 44% are approving of his job as the president and 51% disapprove.
So this is a major slide.
A generic Republican on the ballot at this time would lead in all seven districts going up against the Democrat incumbents by six percentage points on average.
So Carl, the elections are so far away.
Why are you worried about this or why are you talking about this now?
Polls don't matter.
Polls do matter to Democrats.
Unfortunately, I feel like Republicans are starting to do the same.
Republicans have an opportunity of a lifetime, in my opinion, to kick Biden while he's down.
And you have Kevin McCarthy.
Kevin McCarthy seems to have backtracked slightly.
But Mitch McConnell talking about they don't want to impeach.
Why not?

Hello.
Hello.
Hi, how are you?
I'm well, thank you.
Thank you for letting me in.
I just wanted to call up and put in some perspective.
Back in the 80s, Reagan and the Russians were talking about nuclear armaments and destruction and all that.
I know ABC News and a few others ran stories about surveys that were being done for schoolchildren to show us how upset they were that the world might end in nuclear destruction.
Now, what you can learn by asking a child what he thinks about a nuclear war upcoming, I don't know what they could possibly offer in a way of improvement in their perspective themselves.
The fact was that they were taking numbers on just how upset they were.
And what you're describing here reminds me that they just keep running the same routine.
Let's find out how upset the children are and see if we can't influence the parents with that.
Sounds like a Disney.
Yeah, it's very interesting.
That's true.
But I don't remember my generation being nearly as worried about nuclear war as kids.
As this generation is about global warming.
I would suspect, frankly, that the ratio of school time and news time, media time, devoted to global warming, is a thousand to one ratio versus the dangers of nuclear war.
I mean, we even had, in my elementary school, I remember nuclear...
Blast.
What do they call them?
Not tests, but rehearsals or whatever you want to call it.
Should there be a nuclear attack?
We were told to get under our desk.
I must have been in fifth grade.
A drill.
Yeah, a drill.
That's right.
Drill.
I have contempt for drills.
Anyway, we had the drill.
I went under my desk and I thought, Are these people kidding me?
There's going to be a nuclear bomb and my desk is going to protect me?
I actually do recall vividly thinking that.
And it just amused me.
And I think it amused most of the kids in the class.
They liked it because it took time away from boring studies.
But we didn't live with that fear.
But today...
I mean, to think what I lived with, I lived with freedom.
I lived with free speech.
I lived with pride in being American.
I lived in optimism for the future.
Nuclear war notwithstanding, kids today have none of that.
So I'm reading now where parents will now have their kids be given Vaccine starting age five.
I was told of a video of a kid who had asthma.
He was two years old.
And you may have seen the video.
I didn't see the video.
People I know did.
Someone I deeply respect told me that it was not possible to watch the whole video.
It was too painful.
Of this crying two-year-old with asthma and the airline throwing the mother and the child off the plane.
And I said, did any passengers say, what's going on here?
What has happened to America?
What has happened to our airlines?
A two-year-old with asthma has to wear a mask?
Man, I don't know if anybody said that.
Maybe some of you have seen the video and you can report to me.
But this person said to me that one witnesses today a sadism that in her case she did not expect to see in fellow Americans.
There does seem to be an element of sadism.
The joy of inflicting suffering by having power.
Are there any...
Does anybody who works as a flight attendant have misgivings at least?
I'm not saying you can defy your airline, but I'd like to know, do any of you have misgivings about forcing two-year-olds to wear masks?
And if you spoke out at your airline and said, you are asking me to enforce...
Something that is equally cruel and irrational, with a zero scientific basis.
Shame on you, my airline.
Is there one flight attendant who has written such a letter?
Privately, let alone publicly?
Do you feel odd doing this?
It's like I'd like to ask the police in Canada.
When you arrest fellow citizens for talking to each other outdoors, do you have any misgivings?
Because it's a very scary thing.
I fully understand that people have to live by the rules of their employer.
In one case, airlines, and in the other case, the police force.
But it's quite another to do it.
With no protest.
Or any inner misgiving.
These are very large issues that should frighten everybody listening.
This scares me a thousand times more than global warming.
The ability of flight attendants to have a conscienceless expulsion of a two-year-old from an airplane.
That's tough stuff for me to handle, to be honest.
I live on airplanes.
I'll be on one tomorrow.
I'm in Dallas right now.
It's a painful period.
We'll be back.

...about what happened in Texas this past year.
The great Texas freeze, I don't know if it's unprecedented, but very rare, extremely cold weather, knocked out the energy for vast numbers of Texans.
And you wonder, how does the most energy-rich state in the country, with the possible exception, I guess, of Alaska, have this problem?
How did that happen?
Too few Americans bothered asking, how did that happen?
How did the most oil-rich state in the country, or in at least contiguous 48 states, lose power just because it got very cold?
What does cold have to do with it in any event?
These are questions that need to be answered.
Well, we have answers at a PragerU video.
The Great Texas Freeze of 2021, given by Jason Isaac, a fellow at the Texas Public Policy Foundation.
Let's hear a minute or so of the beginning.
2021, the temperature dropped below zero.
Nobody could remember it being this cold for this long.
This was Texas, not Siberia.
But Texas is the energy state.
There was nothing to fear.
Just go home, turn on the heat, and hunker down.
That's how it should have gone.
Instead, over five days, four million Texans lost power during what turned out to be the coldest winter storm in half a century.
Hundreds died, including an 11-year-old boy who froze to death in his sleep.
The state's electric grid operator, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas, ERCOT, later reported the state was just four minutes away from total grid collapse.
The media was quick to blame the state government for not being fully prepared and not acting fast enough.
This may be true, but ERCOT's mistakes were symptoms, not the cause of the problem.
The real cause is decades of misguided policies that have left the Lone Star State with an unreliable energy infrastructure.
It's a cautionary tale that the rest of the country needs to learn from.
All right, let's hold it there and go to my guest, Jason Isaac.
And thank you for coming on the show, Jason.
It's, listening to it again, I realize four million Texans did not have power, is that correct?
That's correct, for several days, mind you.
Several days.
With freezing temperatures?
Yeah, the coldest temperatures we've seen for that long of a period for over 50 years.
Right.
Well, before you tell us why it happened, am I right in being somewhat puzzled by the lack of curiosity in America as to how that happened?
Yeah, I think you are.
It's interesting, and I'm in the swamp right now in Washington, D.C., and I've had a lot of members of Congress come up and ask me still about the February freeze and what caused it.
And I let them know that the problem is rooted in market-distorting policies that started in Washington, D.C. And then Texas even passed more of its own to prop up these unreliable electric providers to say that we're number one.
And in Texas, we like to say we're number one.
Everything's bigger in Texas, and unfortunately, we are the number one state for wind-generated electricity.
It's a third of our grid now.
33% of our grid is unreliable, variable, renewable electric generation.
And we've suffered the cost of that in February.
And we found out what's going to happen.
And it's things that have been happening in Germany, things that have been happening in California.
And I think people in Texas woke up and realized that cold weather is much more dangerous than warm weather.
Yeah.
That's right.
Well, far more people continue to die of cold weather in the world than from warm weather.
So, if what you're saying is accurate, then should this happen again in three years, then the exact same thing will happen again in three years.
Yeah, absolutely.
And what's being pushed in Washington, D.C. with this Build China Back Better program, the reconciliation package, It's going to happen all across the grid if this package gets passed.
What has happened in Texas?
Now, I don't think it's going to happen in Texas again because the governor, we had some legislation that we supported and advocated for this past legislative session in Texas.
The governor followed through with a strong executive order telling the Public Utility Commission of Texas to direct the cost of unreliable electric generation.
On the generators themselves, not on the ratepayers.
And it's all pushed down to the ratepayers now.
And so it'll be nice that the generators are going to be the ones that have to pay for reliable electricity.
All right, hold it there for a moment.
This is an incredibly important subject.

Jason Isaac of the Texas Public Policy Foundation explains.
In the new video from PragerU, see it at PragerU.com where we teach what is in total.
I have Jason Isaac on the line.
So, again, I want to review here.
Four million Texans did not have power during a sub-freezing...
How long a period of time?
It was about four to five days that those millions of people did not have electricity.
Right.
Well, how do you function in sub-zero, not sub-zero, sub-freezing temperature for four days?
Did they leave their homes?
I mean, what did they do?
Well, some people were fortunate that they still had natural gas supply, and so there's been a lot of pictures of people standing on their counter, heating their feet, using their oven and turning their stove top on.
Other people resorted to burning furniture in their homes, in their fireplace, to try to stay warm.
That's not healthy.
That's not a good way to generate heat.
And some people got in their cars, in their garage.
That's not healthy.
That's not safe.
And that's one of the reasons why hundreds of people lost their lives, including an 11-year-old boy who froze to death in his bed.
What do the environmentalists say about this?
What's their answer?
No, they think that we need more renewable electricity on the grid when the renewable electricity, again, 33% of our grid, the week of the blackouts, it produced 8.5% of the electricity we consumed.
That's nothing when the renewable thermal sources are 66% of our grid and they produced 91% of the electricity to the 22, 23 million Texans that had electricity.
I sound somewhat innocent here, but I don't understand their response.
Their response is a non sequitur.
We need more of what didn't work?
It makes that much sense to me, too, Dennis, and it doesn't make any sense at all.
But you're right.
That's what they say.
They need more of it.
And fortunately, our leaders in the legislature and our governor have said, no, we need reliable electricity.
Okay, so tell me another thing.
We, outside of Texas, have a sort of a romantic vision of the state.
So I don't understand having somewhat of that romantic vision myself.
How did the state of Texas get to the point where it is the, quote, leader in renewables?
Well, it was propped up with subsidies from the federal government, and then the state even extended subsidies.
Fortunately, we killed one of those this last legislative session, so it'll expire sunset next year on a property tax abatement for renewable energy.
That will go away, and so that'll help.
But we did.
We just had this fascination with being number one at wind generation electricity and then telling people around the world that, hey, look, we're better than California.
But it really put us in a bad position.
When wind gets $20 a megawatt hour in federal subsidies, they can sell electricity at a negative amount and still make money.
And we talk about that in the video.
They're actually paying their customers to take the product, and that's why we've seen a decrease in reliable thermal generation, because they simply can't compete.
So you're telling me that Republicans in Texas went along with this?
Yeah, starting in the late 90s and then extending these programs.
One of them was extended in 2019, a local property tax exemption for renewable energy.
If it creates certain numbers of jobs, interestingly enough, the renewable energy projects get waivers from the job requirements.
We're subsidizing.
Companies that are owned by the French government, owned and controlled by the French government.
So in Texas, we're actually subsidizing socialism.
Has nuclear power been discussed in Texas?
It has, and we have two nuclear reactors in Texas that generate about a very small percentage of our electricity, less than 10% of our electricity.
With the federal regulatory hurdles to get nuclear built, it just...
Doesn't make sense.
And with the abundance of natural gas that we have, that makes sense.
And natural gas generation is cheap to build, and it can be ramped up and ramped down.
And I think with the new signals that are being sent to the market based on the legislative action that was taken and the action from the governor, we're going to send signals to the market that it's time to reinvest in thermal generation in Texas again.
And that could be...
Clean coal technology.
That could be nuclear.
It could be natural gas.
And that is what's going to propel us back into having a world-leading grid that other countries and states will be envious of.
What's the difference between, I mean, just I don't know the answer.
I always need to be clear.
What's the difference between thermal energy and energy?
Well, there's thermal electricity, thermal generated.
It's basically you heat water.
You heat steam to spin turbines.
And that's done with coal and natural gas and nuclear.
But not fossil fuel?
No, well, that is fossil fuel.
But, yeah, fossil fuel is a thermal.
So that's what I mean.
So I don't understand.
Name me a form of energy that is not thermal.
Wind and solar.
Right.
So my question was legitimate.
All energy outside of renewables is thermal energy.
Correct.
Okay.
Reliable.
Yes, exactly.
I'm glad I asked because the term was used and I thought, gee, isn't everything thermal?
Okay.
I typically call them reliable and unreliable.
Yes, exactly correct.
So I'm curious, from a political standpoint, how many of the 4 million people who froze for 5 days and heard about the numbers of dead, including that Tragedy of the 11-year-old boy will vote Democrat.
Well, I imagine a great deal of them will because they're in places like the city of Austin, and so they're blinded by their own ideology.
Right.
I'm interrupting you deliberately because I need to understand.
It's almost rhetorical, and I'm going to get your response after we return.
Is there anything, and I don't have an answer to this, I'm asking you politically now.
We're not talking energy.
Is there anything that the Democrats could do that would lose them Democratic voters?
Is there any damage from what they're doing to education to what they're doing to energy to people dropping dead of freezing?
Is there anything to Afghanistan, to the border right now?
Is there anything that an Austin, Texas liberal...
will say, I can't vote Democrat.

I just listed a few things of utter damage done by the Democrats, including in Texas, hundreds of unnecessary deaths.
And you said they'll vote the same anyway.
So I'm curious what you think.
This is really just...
American to American talking.
Is there anything the Democrats could do that would lose them votes among Democrats?
...in Texas, and it's some things that you've discussed.
Critical race theory.
We're seeing that drive parents really upset at our public schools.
And more importantly than that, it's the mask mandates that have really mobilized suburban women around the state.
To attend school board meetings.
School board meetings' attendance is through the roof in Texas.
And people are just furious with these mask mandates, these proposed vaccine mandates.
And it is really turning the left against their ideology.
That and the border crisis.
What we're seeing at the southern border and Del Rio, thousands and thousands of immigrants camping under a bridge.
And the Democrats have made this.
And now they're even offering them more carrots in this Build Back Better reconciliation package.
$9 billion for jobs for people, quote, unquote, regardless of immigration status.
So we think 10,000 to 14,000 people sleeping under a bridge in Del Rio, that's just a crumb of what's expected to come.
And they're going to keep coming as long as the Biden administration throws these carrots at them.
I don't know if you have an answer to this.
I don't.
Are those who watch CNN or listen to NPR aware of what's happening at the border now?
Well, I don't watch or listen to either one of those networks, but I don't think so.
It's almost like the media is pushing it under the rug.
It is.
I'm not as sanguine as you about the...
Democrats leaving the Democratic Party.
They literally don't know what is happening.
No, they don't.
And they're going to wake up and they're going to be in their communities.
And they're going to be competing for jobs that their families are trying to get now and recover from this pandemic.
And competing against an illegal immigrant that will work for much cheaper is going to hurt the American family.
Yeah, but by then, who knows?
Anyway, I was just curious to know.
So, one final quick question.
You only have 20 seconds.
Are you optimistic about Texas remaining relatively Republican?
Absolutely.
The leadership that we've seen in the legislature in delivering tax relief, and we've got a special session going on right now, going to deliver property tax relief.

Best Prager with you.
you I'd like to raise a very important issue and get your take.
I don't always say that, but usually I offer you my take and then ask you to react, defer with me, agree with me, whatever.
But I'm very curious about your take, but first let me present the issue.
It was just raised in USA Today, but it's been raised in many publications, many websites, how few men are attending college.
The ratio is now 60% female, 40% male, and the ratio is actually rising.
There were many questions about this.
One is, why is it happening?
I'm curious to get your take on that, especially if you know somebody about whom that is true.
And here's an equally important and interesting question, one that people might not have raised.
I don't say you, but in general people.
Have not raised, along with their discussions of this, does it matter?
Yeah.
Does it matter that so many fewer men are attending college as opposed to the past in the ratio to women?
I'm ambivalent about it.
See, the questions are related because And now I'll give you the number, 1-8 Prager-776-877-243-7776.
So, the questions are related, because if what guys are doing are basically staying home and playing video games, then this is a very big problem.
If, on the other hand, they are simply desiring to do work, get jobs, That have nothing to do with a college education.
And many great jobs have nothing to do with a college education.
And many jobs don't need a college education.
And a college education is worthless in most instances and damaging in many.
So then I don't care.
But if they're playing video games, then I do care.
They're living in their parents' Basement, the proverbial imagery that we offer, that's a bad thing.
But otherwise, it's not a bad thing.
So I don't know if it's a bad thing, because I don't know what men are doing if they're not going to college.
Are they working, or are they doing a completely unproductive activity?
That's a big question.
Frankly, I don't blame a guy who doesn't want to go to college where he, from the opening day seminar on the rape culture, telling him two things.
He's white, so he's a pig, and he's a male, and he's a pig.
I don't know why men would really want to go there.
And what type of men will even go there?
Somebody just sent me a picture of a Harvard guy with lime green toenails.
And, you know, I don't know if this is at all typical.
Yes, exactly.
That's what they want to know.
That's what they would like to know.
What's wrong with that?
Men painting their toenails.
After all, you know, here's a guy who...
He's in touch with his feminine side.
Just exactly what America needs more of.
Men in touch with their feminine sides.
So this is a question that needs to be answered.
I have no desire for most people, male or female, to go to college.
Again, though, the question...
It really revolves around what are guys doing, what are males doing, if they are not attending college.
So USA Today has a piece on it, just I think yesterday, and the gist of it was that men are wasting their time on video games and porn.
At least that was part of it.
On the other hand, There was another piece in Psychology Today a couple of years ago that I found, Our College is Not Welcoming Young Men, where a, I guess he's a PhD in, yeah, professor of psychology at Wagner College.
I'm not familiar with Wagner College.
It doesn't matter.
Just noting that.
And he makes the case that Why would a guy go?
The place is basically male-hating institutions.
Young men have not changed, he writes.
They're still inquisitive and all this.
They still want to make a living.
However, the environment has changed on campuses, and men feel less welcome on many, perhaps most, college campuses.
A changing faculty changes in content of programs and courses.
The disproportionate male-female ratio causing young men to say no to college life, even though they know that not attending may mean being at a disadvantage when applying for certain jobs after graduation and being forbidden from going on for further study in the professions that require a bachelor's degree, medicine law, nursing, veterinary medicine, dentistry, and tech work.
On the other hand, Yes, young men have changed because a lot of them are entrepreneurial and they want to strike out on their own.
Perhaps they are telling us by their absence on campuses that something is wrong with academe.
Boy, no kidding.
They are finding a misandry is the equivalent to misogyny, but nobody knows the word because we only know hatred of women, as if there's no hatred of men.
It's like we only have names, we have the name Islamophobic, but we have no name for hatred of Christians.
Like it doesn't exist.
They are finding a misandric environment on campuses.
Indeed, what does it mean to a first-year male student to have to attend a date-rape seminar where they are told they harbor dangerous impulses that must be controlled when they have never for a moment Thought about coercing a female or anyone sexually.
Or perhaps it is the content of many courses, especially gender studies courses, once called women's studies courses, that draw on many disciplines and often present a disparaging image of males.
A balanced, all-are-welcome curriculum of content and discussion that honors all perspectives has been the hallmark of university education.
Well, it used to be.
Whatever the reasons, the fact is that a trend exists.
Fewer males applying, entering, and staying to completion of the bachelor's degree, and it means something.
My thought is that deciding not to attend university, no matter the tremendous cost and the certainty of accruing enormous debt over four years, should not be based on the perception that they are not welcome.
Okay.
Well, they're not welcome.
Their money is welcome.
They're not welcome.
That is correct.
So, that's the question.

Sean, are we okay with Rachel?
Hi, thanks for taking my call, Dennis.
Okay, thank you for calling.
Yeah, I hate to just echo what you pretty much said, but I feel like the new wave feminist culture and the liberal influence in academia has influenced men to kind of not want to pursue college as much, not want to pursue their goals as much when they're constantly getting berated.

All these articles about men not applying to college.
The ratio is 60-40 female.
Given the feminization of campuses, maybe they should just all be all female.
Why not?
Then they have no more rape culture.
They would not need any more seminars about date rape.
To engage in it.
That should be terrific for all concerned.
All female universities.
It would be an interesting question if they were all male universities, whether the enrollment would be up.
Maybe it's time to do that.
All right, let's see what you folks have to say.
Very curious, in fact.
Mark in Orange County, California.
Hello.
Hi, Dennis.
Hi.
Hi.
I've got a son.
He's 25 years old.
He was going to the local JC. He wasn't happy there.
He finished up.
He got his AA and then came home, told myself and mom that he no longer wanted to go there.
And we said, well, that's fine.
So what's plan B? What are you going to do?
Long story short, he signed up with an apprenticeship program at the local Ford dealership.
He's now a mechanic at the local Ford dealership.
He's very happy there.
He's making good money, and my wife and I are very proud of him.
You should be.
I think that's great.
Okay, there's a great story.
If you have stories, I'm curious.
It's a very interesting thing.
USA Today's take was the guys are spending their time.
With porn and video games.
That's the USA Today take.
And I have no idea.
Maybe it's true.
That's not what I'm hearing from people who are telling me that their kids are taking other jobs.
But I, in fact, believe that that is true for a certain number of them.
It would be very interesting to know, by the way, to the extent that that is true, a kid who is spending his time doing all of that.
I wonder how many of them would tend to be on the left and how many would tend to be on the right.
All right, Dave in Surprise, Arizona.
Hello.
Thank you, Mr. Prager.
Rare occasion where I'm disagreeing with you, sir.
That's why I took your call.
Yeah, I think this isn't the story about young men staying home to play porn and video games.
It's really just another facet in Operation Chaos to destroy the fabric of our nation.
Well, wait.
So you agree that that's what most men not going to college are doing?
I don't think that that's what they're doing exclusively.
I think like other colleges, they're probably searching for different paths in life.
But I think we need to remain in the form of ideas.
Wait, wait, wait.
Forgive me.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Of course.
Thank you.
You called to say that you think that men doing this, that is sitting at home, With porn and video games is part of the articulated chaos goal that is taking place in society.
So I asked, and I just asked someone to understand, do you think that most are doing it?
And then you said, you don't think most are doing it exclusively.
So I don't know what your position is.
Do you think more than 50% of men not going to college are spending most of their time at home?
Playing games and watching porn?
I do not.
I believe it's the misinformation narrative of the mainstream media.
Then where do you differ with me?
I thought your contention was that you believed this story.
I may have misunderstood you.
Oh, you did.
Okay, you did misunderstand.
No.
I'm simply asking, what do you folks think?
I actually said that I welcome a lot of men not going to college.
I would welcome a lot of women not going to college.
College stinks.
College hurts people.
Most people who attend college are hurt by the experience.
They either come out with an inability to think rationally, or they come out worse with truly disgraceful values.
A loathing of everything that is noble and good in this society and about this society.
I don't know how many men opting out are in their basements playing.
So I don't blame you for misunderstanding, but I wasn't taking a position.
I was asking if you folks have that experience with a young man.
I have no doubt there are young men who are doing that.
But the question is always numbers.
Okay, so I'm glad you called because maybe I wasn't clear.
Okay, so, by the way, I won't be taking the calls that are not on this subject, so forgive me, Lou in L.A., and I'll clear up a line there.
I'll clear up another line there.
I want to be able to get as many calls as possible.
Robert in Elberton, Georgia.
Hello.
Hey, how are you?
Good, thank you.
Yeah, well, I'm 18. I just graduated in May from high school.
And I decided to go into the workforce.
I'm on the job right now, making deliveries.
Making a pretty good job.
I don't know about going to college where I want to.
I want to enjoy the experience.
But I just don't know if that's right for me.
Well, that's going on in my views.
You know, I'll be able to actually get an experience.
Because if I tell what I believe in, you know, will I be vilified or whatever?
Give an example of what you believe in for which you'd be vilified.
Well, the vaccines, the immigration crisis, the Afghan, you know, what's going on in Afghanistan.
I just, all of that.
I have, you know, an outlook like we all believe in.
Because I wanted to go to UGA, but I just didn't know if I was to tell people that, oh, well, you're an evil man or whatever, you know?
Well, you would be.
You would be called an evil man.
That is correct.
You're right about that.
Oddly enough, it wouldn't bother me if a guy who had conservative views and was outspoken did go to college.
It would be a wonderful thing for the country.
I don't know if it's wonderful for you, but...
If you could maintain your clarity and strength for four years, it might be worth it.
But then there's the other factor.
The seminars you'll have to sit through that depict women as perpetual victims of the males on the campus.
Which has as much damage on women as it does on men, by the way.
Women are damaged also at college.
Trending now on the Hugh Hewitt Show.
When do the families of the people stranded there go public?
That's really the issue, Byron, because that will draw attention.
Well, I think it's going to be pretty soon.
I mean, the United States is dependent either on the Taliban or the Qataris or some other nation to help get United States people out of Afghanistan.
And let me say one more thing.
I think on this issue of evacuations, there are two sides to this issue.
There is who we have not yet brought out of Afghanistan, and there's who we have brought out of Afghanistan.
And that's a lot of interpreters that we brought out, and we are finding out more about the frenzied, confused, and incomplete vetting that has taken place with Afghans who have been brought to the United States.
We have one member of Congress, Representative Tiffany, I believe is his name, from Wisconsin, who went to an army base where thousands and thousands of people have been brought and is asking, well, what's the vetting on these people?
Did they need to be brought to the United States immediately?
immediately could they be waiting in a third country safe from being out of Afghanistan waiting in a third country while the United States conducts normal vetting operations all that we perform on all refugees so there's there's a and they're not I mean they're already they're already in the United States and The Biden administration is issuing them all what's called humanitarian parole.
That is, coming to the United States because we say so.

lot of articles about men not attending college.
Ratio is now 6 to 4. 60% college students female, 40% male.
And I don't know if it's good news or bad news, or just a mixed bag.
What are young men doing if they're not going to college?
For both young men and young women, college is a wasteland.
But I totally understand why a guy wouldn't want to go to college.
It is an anti-male, anti-masculine experience.
Period.
You really want to go to a place where people are...
Every single student is...
It's a sick place, college.
It just is.
I don't care if you have a preferred pronoun.
My view on that is very simple.
If you look like a woman, sound like a woman, dress like a woman, I have no concern about whether you're transgender.
I address you as a woman.
If you look like a man and dress like a man, or look like a man and dress like a woman for that matter, I will address you as a male.
I will address you as the way you appear to me.
If I can't tell which you are, then I will somehow figure out a way to find out what you would like to be called.
That's correct.
But otherwise?
I mean, asking me to address someone with a beard as she is asking me to lie, and I'm not prepared to.
Go to school to learn that men give birth, and that if you don't believe that and say that, you're a hater?
I salute the guys who consider the college experience a wasteland.
They do hate men there.
They certainly hate masculinity.
Toxic masculinity, right?
Yeah.
Craig, Columbus, Ohio.
Hello.
Hello, Dennis.
It's an honor to speak with you.
Thank you.
I was just calling what the colleges did to my son with my personal experience.
My son, him and I were close as you can get.
And when he went to college, it was during the McCain and Obama election.
And he was a part of the Republican campaign, and he would stand on a corner and hand out brochures for McCain.
And now, to this day, he's in the education system, and him and I can't even talk hardly anymore, what it's done, though.
Wow.
So, what did it exactly?
Did he go for a graduate degree in education?
Yes.
And now, you know, he's for the critical race theory when I can't speak to him about it.
Right.
Well, that's very sad.
You are...
My heart breaks for you.
You did nothing wrong, and you got a side swipe.
Sucker-punched, as it were, by college.
I warn people about this all the time, but everybody thinks it won't happen to them.
So I always wonder if I'm speaking for naught.
And it's not just college any longer.
It's elementary school and high school.
Critical race theory.
School rendered his son a worse person.
It's a very painful thing for me to say.
Best country that anyone of any race lives in.
It is.
That's why millions of blacks moved here voluntarily, and that's why millions more want to move here.
Correct?
I ask this all the time.
Nobody's ever given me an answer from the left.
If America's systemically racist, why do Africans and Caribbean blacks, why do they want to move here in such large numbers, and why do they?
Are they stupid?
Did Jews move to Germany in the 1930s?
Right?
That was systemically anti-Semitic.
It's a gigantic lie that America is systemically racist.
The left is systemically racist.
Not America.
I get approached by a lot of companies wanting me to endorse their products.
And on rare occasion, I reach out to a company on my own.
If you have numbness, needles burning in your hands or feet, nerve damage or congenitality, in my case, in the feet, Nerve Renew is a remarkable product.
It's a supplement that you take twice a day.
I had inserts made for my feet, which worked for years.
Then I read about Nerve Renew.
A year later, I threw away my inserts.
So I asked them if they would advertise.

There's about 57 Muslim states in the world.
There's one Jewish state.
The massive ingathering of Jews in the last 150 years back to the land is absolutely unprecedented.
They say that there's no greater sign of redemption coming than the Jewish people returning to the hills of Judea.
As a Christian, I've always supported Israel's claim to the Holy Land.
To me, the Palestinians were just getting in the way of God's plan.

So, men are not attending college nearly as much as they did.
The ratio is increasing.
It's now higher than 60-40 female to male.
Women apparently enjoy things like gender studies and other quote-unquote studies and intersectionality and learning that there are no sexes, there is just a spectrum, and that America is a piece of crap.
Apparently this comports with more female peace than with male peace of mind, anyway.
Whatever the reason, women find it far more okay to learn sick stuff.
I don't know why, but you can't deny it.
Whatever I just described to you is bad stuff.
Men don't want to go to a place where they're going to have to sit through seminars.
Not just sit through seminars telling them that there would be rapists.
And that a whole protocol about how to touch a woman.
May I touch you here?
Then may I touch you here again?
And then may I touch you there?
And pretty much to get it recorded, because on most campuses, thanks to Barack Obama and Joe Biden, if you are a male and you are accused, you have no rights of defense.
You are presumed guilty on a college campus, no matter what the charge, and no matter how much untruth there is, or how little truth there is to it.
I totally get it why a lot of guys don't want to go to college.
Victoria, Ocean Grove, New Jersey.
Hello.
It's an honor, Dennis.
Thank you.
I've listened to you for years.
I'm a Russian Jew.
I immigrated in 78. I'm heartbroken when I look at what's happening here.
I was thrilled when my son said he no longer wanted to go to college because I didn't want to give a dime to this institution that was trying to brainwash my kids.
I raised my kids to know politics.
I taught them everything I knew about Russia.
Every dinner was a political conversation.
And then I had to send my kids to college, which I dreaded.
And I was happy when my son had a very bad experience with a very liberal teacher.
And he told me he's had enough, and he left, and he's been doing very well, thank God.
Thank God.
What is he doing, if I may ask?
I actually moved him from New Jersey to Arizona, and he is a broker on a big center, a shopping mall center.
He works in my husband's company.
There was an opening, and God helped us, and I was able to start him fresh, and he's very successful, coming from, you know, a city.
He's a street smart and all of this, and he's very intelligent, aside from not having a degree.
I don't believe in degrees.
I don't believe I... No, no, no.
He's not intelligent...
Wait, wait, wait.
I have to correct you.
Forgive me.
He's not intelligent aside from having a degree.
He's intelligent because he doesn't have a degree.
Exactly.
To me, when I hear that somebody has a PhD, that means nothing.
No, it doesn't mean.
I assume the person is a fool.
I know that that's not always true, but I assume that.
That's all.
I know that there are people with PhDs who are not fools, but I assume if you have one in the liberal arts, not in physics, that you are a fool.
Because you've had that much more time to become a fool because of what the universities do.
They make fools make fools.
What else are fools going to make?
Wise people?
So there you go.
That's another great example.
Okay?

It's another great example.
Okay, so she's listening to the radio.
I'll get somebody to work.
Let's see.
Brian in Hendersonville, North Carolina.
Hello.
Hello.
Two things.
One is, I do think, I believe in the sovereignty of God, so I do believe God guides and directs us, and in one way, if we are meant to go, if you've got a kid and you're meant to go into the lion's den, so to speak, And that's what they're meant to do.
Wait, wait, wait.
How do you know if you're meant to go?
Well, I think that comes down to value and conviction.
And I think that comes down to, in some ways, spiritual guidance, if you believe in that sort of thing.
That's what I mean.
And in one way, for instance, I'm a mental health professional.
I could not have gotten to this point without having a master's degree.
And so, you know, what do you do?
Now, my degree actually happened to come from a seminary, so I chose to go the path that blended psychology and theology, because that was important to me.
Well, you're right.
Okay, you're right.
Look, there are professions that necessitate degrees.
I'm sorry to say, but I recognize that fact.
And in that sense, males would be penalized.
And we'll end up with a highly disproportionate number of professionals who are female.
There'll be far more female doctors and far more female psychologists and so on.
Might be fine.
It might be irrelevant.
It might be bad.
We'll find out.

Air Force Reserve and Guard components.
Oh, this is the San Antonio Express News.
Okay.
All reach elusive recruiting goals.
So now that's an interesting thing.
Because we were worried about this for years, about recruitment in the armed forces going down as the left feminizes the...
Military.
So, maybe a lot of the men not going to college are actually enlisting.
That's the subject here.
So let me review the calls here.
Candace in Plano, her son went to trade school.
Apparently that worked out.
John, Seneca, South Carolina.
Dropped out of college, went to trade school.
I assume that worked out.
Jeff, Dallas, Texas.
My son is thriving in real estate at the age of 21. That worked out.
Max, Erie, Pennsylvania, 42. So his...
Oh, he just...
I thought he was referring to him or his son.
Men want trade school to do men's work.
I think there's truth to that.
And Dan in Columbus, Ohio, Hillsdale College is roughly 50-50.
Right.
Which is an interesting, very interesting fact, which might prove the point that men don't want to go to the feminized universities that exist now.
The anti-male feminized universities.
That exists now.
There are consequences to the left's assault on every institution.
They don't play out immediately in many cases.
Over the long run, they play out both damaging and in terms of creating resistance.
So the question is, which will prevail in America?
The damage or the resistance to the left?
That's the most important question of our time in the United States of America.
Let me tell you, there are plenty of us who understand the damage that they're doing.
And if it weren't for the media playing the role of Pravda, the Communist Party in the Soviet Union, the role of the Washington Post is identical to the role of Pravda in the Soviet Union.
If they didn't have that and CNN, same thing, there would be no hope for the left.
But there is hope for the country if you get out of the closet and maybe not send your kid to college.
I'm Dennis Prager.
