I know, I know.
Sometimes it takes me 30 seconds when I hit command print to get the print dialog box.
Still, even after upgraded at 10.6.3, it still takes me sometimes 60 seconds just to hit the box.
Let me hit the print button.
Uh am I doing what on Saturday?
No, I'm not getting the iPad on Saturday.
I'm waiting until late April to get the full Boar iPad.
I'm getting the 3G iPad along with Wi-Fi.
I'm not going to go at the cheap version.
What do you think?
What do you what do you take me for?
Just to be first in line to be first in line?
No way, Snerdly.
I signed up for the big iPad.
The Big 64, whatever the biggest drive in it, memory is in the uh 3G as well as uh well as Wi-Fi.
Does uh again, once again, what people like me go out and buy the most expensive version, makes the cheaper version affordable for everybody.
But that won't that won't last long, folks, as nobody in this country is gonna have disposable income before this guy is through.
Greetings, welcome back, Rush Limbaugh and the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
800 282-2882 if you want to be on the program email address, L Rushbow at EIBNet.com.
So pension plans, underfunded pension plans, the UAAW via the Chrysler and General Motors bailout had their pension plans totally bailed out, and their retirement benefits totally bailed out.
You know who got screwed.
Let's not forget the bondholders, the people who Obama said were being unreasonable.
They wanted their full investment back, and they were told to go pound sand.
So, you know, the 108 billion dollars for UAW health benefits is in the Senate version of the final health care bill.
It is in there, page 48.
You will see it, and they just keep coming at us.
From the Hill.com, the Transportation Department and the Environmental Protection Agency, the EPA, will roll out final rules today that boost car and light truck fuel efficiency and create first-time auto emission standards for carbon dioxide.
Thursday's completion of the rules has long been expected, but it will provide the White House and environmentalist wackos a chance to sing off on the same song sheet a day after Obama announced major offshore oil and gas drilling expansion that green groups strongly criticized.
Obama said the rules would ultimately save 1.8 billion barrels of oil, which he called akin to taking 58 million cars off the road for a year.
The new car and light truck rules cover model years 2012 through 2016.
This wasn't supposed to go into effect until 2020.
The plan boosts the corporate average fuel economy, the cafe standards, to 34.1 miles per gallon by 2016, and combined with greenhouse gas requirements will create a standard equivalent to 35.5 miles per gallon.
Now let's just take a look at this.
Obama said the rules will ultimately save 1.8 billion barrels of oil, which he called akin to taking 58 million cars off the road for a year.
How's this all going?
Do you realize what the cost of gasoline's gonna go up to?
It's gonna skyrocket.
The cost of automobiles is gonna skyrocket.
Demanding all of these technology changes this soon, it's gonna cause the price to just skyrocket left and right.
And if he goes ahead and just announces cap and trade next week, bails out the unions, folks.
I mean, I you know, they've got health care.
Uh they've they they rammed that down their throats.
Why stop?
Everybody's missing the point here.
Everybody thinks Obama now trying to get back in everybody's good graces, going out selling the healthcare bill.
Why?
Why sell it after it's already done?
Why do well that's just to make you think that he has your concerns at heart?
He wants to reassure you it's not Armageddon, like it's being said it is.
He wants to um drill for oil now.
When he doesn't.
The dirty little secret is they're doubling tripling down.
They are all in.
Cap and trade, union pension bailouts, card check.
They're gonna get as much of it done as quickly as they can.
Because they figure None of it will be rolled back.
None of it will be able to be rolled back significantly.
So they're all in.
Now here's the story about business titans, a wash in cash.
This from the Los Angeles Times, the the tide or headline of this auto say, how dare there be profit?
Big corporations sitting on mountains of cash.
They are hoarding it all.
The brutal recession has left many American families, small businesses, state and local governments in financial ruin are teetering on the brink.
But it's a much different story for the nation's biggest companies.
Many have emerged from the economy's harrowing downturn loaded with cash, thanks to deep cost cutting that helped drive the U.S. unemployment rate into double digits.
So you see here, it's more of the demonization of business.
This is a conveniently placed story.
Right in front of Henry Waxman demanding at all these firms taking the first quarter charge because of health care expenses.
Have them come up to Washington, be treated as the bad guys.
You are sitting on hordes of money.
What are you doing?
Cutting this are you doing taking away all of this from your employees?
Why are you doing this?
The healthcare bill was designed to lower costs.
They're going to be portrayed as the greedy, selfish demons that liberal Democrats have been portraying them as my whole life.
And here's the LA Times.
I'm pretty sure it's the LA Times just backing them up here.
A much different story for the nation's biggest companies.
They've emerged from the economy's harrowing downturn to loaded with cash thanks to deep cost cutting that helped drive the U.S. unemployment rate.
So it's their fault.
It's business's fault that we have high-end employment.
It's not Obama's.
Now, one firm I happen to know hoards a bunch of cash is Apple.
Apple Computer Incorporated, Apple Inc., has about 40 billion dollars in cash.
They haven't cut any employees.
They're not downsizing.
Apple Inc.
has that money and their stock is at an all-time high, 230 bucks a share, because they are making products that are innovative and people line up to buy.
They haven't gotten rich by cutting corners and firing people.
I mean, this is just absurd, this never-ending assault on people and companies in the private sector.
You know, a company is nothing other than people and the people who work there, but the people who run these companies apparently are the devil incarnate.
They are Satan.
They are evil.
What about the people who just work there?
They end up being penalized and demonized as well.
You know, guilt by association, even though they're portrayed as uh trapped and mistreated by these evil corporate titans.
It's a business philosophy.
If you want to hoard cash in a market like this, if that's what your analysts say is best for you to, or if that's what you as the CEO want to do, so what?
What business is it of the LA Times?
You know, what what what business is it of the LA Times?
What these companies do with their profits.
See, what really bugs them is that they have a profit.
It bugs them and they have a profit, and the larger the profit, why, the worse it is.
Corporate America's robust finances have been a boon for the company's stock prices.
The blue chip Dow Jones industrial average has risen to 18 months' highs.
And that's bad news now.
That's not right, even though the stock market is a good place to put your money these days.
It's better than the American private sector economy.
The stock market is a real growing enterprise.
Some experts say that the strength of the largest firms will be a key advantage for the nation in the next phase of the economic recovery.
Joseph Carson, economist at money management firm Alliance Bernstein in New York said, the good news for America now is that companies are very competitive, flush with cash, ready to expand, but others worry that the business giant's clout has increased significantly at the expense of workers.
The millions in the banks, a Millions in the ranks of the jobless, as well as those who remain employed but must work harder than ever.
More and more of the balance of power in society is shifting toward corporations, said Thomas Cochran, a management professor and co-director of the Institute for Work and Employment Research at MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Does anybody believe that more and more of the balance of power in society is shifting toward corporations?
Good lord.
They are the targets of this administration.
And that's what this story indicates and proves.
By one prominent measure, major companies had extraordinary success weathering the recession.
Industrial companies in the Standard and Poor's 500 index.
A list that includes such giants as 3M, Coca-Cola, United Technologies Corporation ended last year with a record $832 billion in cash and short-term securities on their books up 27% from a year earlier.
The U.S. economic recovery could be stunted unless a large share of that corporate wealth flows to average workers, either in the form of new jobs or higher wages.
If we don't get jobs growing soon, and we don't give ordinary working families a sense that they're benefiting from this recovery, there's going to be an economic price.
can't believe I am reading this.
There have been some signs that businesses overall are beginning to reinvest their cash mountain.
FedEx, the shipping giant, last week said that its profit more than doubled in the quarter ended February 28th, compared with last year's depressed level.
Although the company earlier this year reinstated merit-based pay increases, it remains very strict on hiring, said their chief financial officer.
No job can be filled without the okay of a senior management committee.
Anyway, the story goes on and on and on.
Just rip businesses from one side of the room to the other because they have so much cash that are not paying their employees, they're benefiting during the recession, and they are causing unemployment, and it's a great setup for when Waxman gets these companies before his committee, because the whole point is to blame them, to blame individual corporations and business in general for the recession for high unemployment, uh, for sabotaging Obama's health care bill.
Get ready for it.
In the meantime, the real sabotage.
The real death threat to this country is Barack Obama and his agenda.
Okay, let's go get some phone calls.
The I promised this 30 minutes ago.
And we've only taken what, one today?
That's what happens when I've been gone for a little while.
There's a lot to catch up on, and I really appreciate all of you holding on.
We'll go to Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
Ed, thank you for waiting.
Welcome to the program.
Hey, make a carbon dear rush.
It's an honor to talk to you.
Thank you, sir.
Hey, I just want to comment.
I work in the financial and insurance field, and one of the things that I see is emails that come back and forth from wholesalers and stuff that talk to these insurance companies.
And they're already saying the first phase of adding children to these plans and putting all these guaranteed issues on is at least going to raise premiums in the next six to eight months, at least ten to fifteen percent to start with.
You know, worth worth all these savings coming out the dirt talking about.
Well, but there's there's uh there's one problem with that.
That's eventually going to be true, but it isn't true now because the Democrats left that out of the bill.
Remember, we had this last week.
The guaranteeing children's coverage who have pre-existing conditions doesn't go into effect until 2014.
Obama's out there touting it as though it's immediate, but it's not in the bill.
They're gonna have to go in and do some kind of uh, I don't know what kind of fix to put it back in, but it's not that that's no, it's not gonna be a technical fix.
I mean they're gonna have to they're gonna have to rewrite the uh the law.
They can't just go in and say, Oh, we meant we meant immediately and scratch out 2014 and put you say they're gonna do an executive order.
Well, okay, if they do an executive, why stop of course.
Why didn't I think they would do an execution?
We're not a democracy anymore.
What the hell?
It's I it's it's I apologize, folks.
I'm you know, I'm an American.
Uh I'm not used to the way things would doing them now.
And and uh yeah, of course.
Executive order.
So your your insurance agent is right when that happens.
There's no way premiums can do anything but go up.
Look, folks, when you I don't know if people understand what health insurance is.
I I think people don't understand, even some of these people in Washington do not understand what insurance is.
Nobody can insure their health.
You can't do it.
It's not possible, and that's not what you're buying.
You're not insuring good health.
When you have health insurance, you theoretically are guarding against the risk or of insuring yourself against a risk of a catastrophic event or accident.
Same thing with your homeowners, same thing with an automobile.
You're you're insuring yourself against something catastrophic.
And the higher deductible you pay, the theoretically the uh the lower your premium.
Well, health insurance is now become just nothing more than a public utility.
And if you can wait until you uh get sick or crash the car to insure yourself and get full coverage, you're not talking insurance, you're talking private sector subsidies, which can't work.
Private sector can't subsidize anything, goes out of business.
And the private sector cannot compete with government because government does not have to show a profit.
So we're all headed to single payer, pre-existing condition.
Uh you know, if you if you have if you're driving your car, you have an insurance policy, and you have a wreck, and it's your fault, your premium goes up.
Now, a lot of people don't like it, but it's business.
It's the way it works.
You have become a greater risk.
Pure and simple.
The statistics don't lie.
Kids, you give them their car or driver's license, age 16 or 17.
The statistics are that they're gonna have a bunch of wrecks.
It's gonna cost more to insure your kids than it will you.
And if your kid has an accident, then look out because the premium's gonna skyrocket even more, and everybody understands why.
Now, people still get mad when it happens.
No, it took us one wreck, and they canceled me.
One wreck, I had to go to another insurance company.
But you found one.
Now, a pre-existing condition.
What is a pre-existing, let's say pre-existing condition is uh terminal cancer.
You want to insure somebody against terminal cancer.
You're not insuring anybody anything.
You're simply going out and making somebody else pay for your coverage.
Or your treatment, not your coverage, you're paying for your paying for your treatment.
Now, if an insurance company is mandated by law to cover your treatment, even though you have an identifiable disease, and that treatment is gonna be very expensive.
I'm sorry, the premium is going to be very high.
Because somebody has to pay for your treatment.
Somebody has to, and eventually where we're headed here is that your neighbors, all of our neighbors, all of our taxpayer friends, those who work and pay taxes are going to pay the brunt of it.
Those who don't work and don't pay taxes are gonna get all the coverage by design, returning the nation's wealth to its rightful owners.
Um Jay, you're next on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hello, Rush.
It's a pleasure to talk to you.
Thank you.
Um give you a little background.
I have a small construction company.
And uh we received notice this week, and I don't know if we're on an island out here or not, but uh our health insurance policy is gonna go up 54% uh in that renewals in in June.
Uh your insurance company sent you this uh this as a notification?
Yes.
Uh did they tell you why?
No.
Um we have a healthy group.
We don't have anything, uh, any problem, so uh, it can't come from that direction.
Uh the only thing that I can imagine is they're just anticipating their going up and the start of what's gonna happen.
Well, now you see what's gonna happen here Is that once these kind of things are learned by people like Pelosi and Henry Waxman, they are going to say that there's no reason for this.
That Obamacare, the health care legislation, lowers costs, that this is just the greedy insurance companies taking advantage of this and and trying to fool people because the Republicans have put out the word that this is an Armageddon type thing, and they want to turn everybody against their insurance company so that the private insurance industry ceases to exist in a few years.
54% increase.
You ought to ask them why.
Just as a you know, curiosity, they'll tell you.
Ask them why.
We're asking.
We haven't received uh uh an answer yet.
It I guess it takes some time.
I don't know.
Well, how long has it been since you requested uh the reason?
Three days.
Oh, that's nothing.
They might not even gotten to it yet.
Did you ask them on the phone or ask them by written uh communication?
Well, I I asked them on the phone when I when I received notice, I was pretty quick to jump on the phone.
Yeah.
And they said they'll get back to you?
Yep.
Well, I sure like to know what they say when they get back to you.
Snerdley's gonna get your phone number.
We're gonna check it if you don't mind.
Nope, that's fine.
We'll check in with you uh periodically, because I want to find out what they tell you as to why you're getting a 54% increase.
It may have nothing to do with health care.
It may be that they've lost a bunch of people uh that they also ensure that their pool has gotten smaller, and that they have to charge everybody else remaining in the pool a little bit more.
It could be any reason at all.
Uh, and it could also be that they're crooks, which is what Obama is going to try to portray them as.
I just want to hear what they have to say.
Back after this.
All right, here it is.
I missed this uh in trying to catch up uh with show prep for today.
It's yesterday from uh life and health insurance news.
The health insurance industry has agreed to comply with a provision of the health care reform law requiring them to provide insurance to children with pre-existing medical conditions within six months.
So the caller was right.
Um I was not wrong, I was just uninformed.
But now I'm uh I am properly informed.
The industry is doing so, even though some of its lawyers dispute the scope of the provision in the law as interpreted by Congress and the administration.
Health insurers' view, supported by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, as well as health care lawyers and consultants, is that the provision mandating that insurance allow parents to buy coverage for children with pre-existing conditions doesn't kick in under the law till 2014, but they're gonna say, oh, we know we'll look at we know we didn't mean that.
Uh they meant it to happen pretty soon, so we're gonna go ahead and do it.
In a letter to Capleen Sabilius, Secretary of Health and Human Services, America's health insurance plans said in a letter dated March 29th, it will comply with the administration's interpretation of the provision.
Now, this group, uh the National Associated uh well, not no that group, that the uh whatever the America's health insurance plans, they're all in.
Um the insurance health insurance industry, by the way, has pretty much now bought into Obamacare.
And a lot of people will why?
I mean, he's targeting them for destruction.
Look, folks, they know it, but this is called protection.
If the insurance companies fight Obama on this, they're not gonna have time to make a quick buck and get out in time.
Um he has told them.
He's targeted them, and they know full well.
Uh this is it's like trying to get the drug companies on board for health care.
You promise them a bunch of goodies, uh, we won't hit you as hard if you become our allies in this.
And that's basically what they've told the insurance companies.
So you just it's it's it's trying to be the last one eaten by the alligator.
That's that's just what they're doing here.
Um that's why I'm gonna really be interested to see what the CEOs say to Waxman when they get up there on April 21st.
Folks, Easter is this week.

Pittsburgh, Jeff, you're next on the EIB network.
Hello, sir.
Hi, Rush.
Welcome back.
Thank you very much, sir.
Uh this oil exploration uh Obama do, I think we can all deem that as BS.
Um But the nuclear part of it, strangely enough, in the Sports Illustrated from 1979, um there's a full page ad having all industrialized countries going nuclear, and only America has been slow to decide its energy future.
I don't think we went too much further than that.
I think we're getting ourselves in a uh behind the eight ball on it, so to speak.
Oh, we've been behind the eight ball for a long time.
Well with one movie shut down the nuclear industry in this company, uh the China syndrome.
China syndrome, yeah.
Jane Fonda, Jack Lemon, uh shut it down.
Michael Douglas, I think was he in that.
Uh Jane Fonda, that's all you need to know.
Uh that that one movie uh shut us down.
We used to say we're behind the eight ball.
We've been behind the eight ball on energy.
I don't know for how long.
I mean, what all of this moratorium on offshore drilling, moratorium on providing our own energy, and oil being portrayed as the worst scum of the earth that's destroying the planet when oil, the internal combustion engine, all of the technology resulting has led to the most productive, enhanced lifestyle humanity has ever known around the world, not just here.
And yet oil's being demonized, and there's no such I mean, these windmills are putting windmills out, they freeze up, they don't run when there's not enough wind and you can't make wind, and they're not efficient anyway.
I mean, th we we're just you know, the left has just gotten hold of of all of this, and their desire is to cut this country down to size.
They don't like our superpower status.
They don't like it because they think it's not fair that we should have so much and the rest of the world can have so little.
They think we've stolen it from the rest of the world.
They don't understand capitalism, they hate it, they don't understand the concept of productivity.
All they understand is the redistribution of wealth, but they resent the creation of it.
And you can't redistribute what you don't have.
And we don't have what we are redistributing now.
We are printing it, we are borrowing it, and we're running up a debt that at some point's gonna come due.
It is a situation is dire.
We are a great nation at risk in a dangerous world.
The fact of the matter is that the biggest threat we now face is internal.
Our own radical left.
Here's Emily in Jacksonville, Florida.
I'm glad you waited.
You're next on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hello, how are you today?
Fine, thank you very much.
I um I had a question for you because I, you know, you they they spent however much money on the census commercials, and I got my census and I filled it out and I sent it back.
And um I wondered if you heard about this um it's called an American community survey.
And it came in the mail for me today, and it's from the Census Bureau.
It's actually signed by Robert M. Groves, the director of the uh Department of Commerce, and it told me that I have to fill it out by law just like the census.
And so I'm filling it out, and it says it takes about 38 minutes to do it.
And um I'm looking at the questions and I'm like, why do I have to tell this to some random person?
I mean, it's it's the most ridiculous question.
Like, because of a physical, mental, or emotional condition, does this person have serious difficulty concentrating, remembering, or making decisions?
Like, what the heck?
Like I I'm just confused, like, how much of this do I have to fill out?
Well, you know, I'd have fun with it.
If if I haven't seen the form.
Mm-hmm.
I I haven't seen the form, but a question.
It's literally like 40 questions per person.
Well, if you get a is if you get a question out there that says um uh physical, mental or emotional condition, does this person have serious difficulty concentrating?
Uh yes, so much so that I can't answer this question.
Well, it doesn't give you a line to say that, but it's just like yes and no questions.
I mean, has this person given birth to any children in the past twelve months?
Like, how does this how does this affect our country?
Like, I just don't get it.
Like it's asking me if I have a bachelor's degree and how many kids, you know, how many kids I have in my house and this, that and the other, which the census I already filled out.
So what penalty by law, it says you will be penalized if you don't fill this out.
What is the penalty?
Do you know?
I mean I I'm just kind of confused.
I don't know, probably jail.
I mean, we were talking of Obama administration.
I know.
I was that's what I was thinking.
I'm like, great, Obama sent out this thing, and it says it's totally random, and it doesn't even say our name on the front, it just says to the resident of our address.
And I'm like, so like, how are they gonna figure like what are they gonna do?
Come to my house and if they're not satisfied with the answers, they will come to your house, yes.
Are you kidding me?
No, I'm not kidding.
It's already happened.
I've read accounts, it's already happened to people or come to the house.
In fact, they they've come to house two or three times and they're harassing people, even though they've gotten all the answers they uh they want.
Why?
What is the like what what is them knowing if I in other language?
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Who did you vote for?
Oh, of course I voted for McCain.
Well, then you ought to know what this is all about.
I not only worked uh voted for him, I worked on his campaign to no end until my fingers were bloody because I was like, dear God, I'm not a socialist.
I don't want to be a socialist and I don't want to live in a socialist company.
Well, then you you understand what's going on here.
I just it just blows me away.
Like I wonder if I leave them blank, are they really gonna come to my door and start asking me questions?
And can they really do something to me if I don't want I mean, I don't want to answer this.
How many times has this person been married?
They want you to think so.
They want they want you to just like the IRS wants you to fear being audited.
Right.
They want you to fear the black boots coming to your house.
The black booted uh jack booted whatever thugs, they want you to fear whatever the penalty is, so they want they want you to fill it out.
They don't have enough people to go to everybody's houses.
But I guarantee you, my luck is they'd come to my house, and I just don't know what to say to them.
I want to say, look, you're asking some really personal questions, but I don't see how they affect the I don't see how it affects the census in any way, shape, or form.
And it says that it's totally random, so why am I being like, you know, I I just I don't understand.
Like it's just really um I wondered if you had heard about it because it is literally like Yeah, look it.
It's 27 pages long, 28 pages long, and it's like you better answer all of the names and all of the health and questions.
I I I I've heard about it.
But see, this is this is where we differ.
None of this surprises me.
We know who we're dealing with here.
We're dealing with total control statists.
We're dealing with people who want to intimidate populations into conforming with the rules that they propose and implement.
Uh I'm I'm not not surprised by any I we tried to warn people here, you know, what was headed down the tracks.
I don't know what to tell you to do.
I haven't seen the form.
I did not get my warning that the form was coming, and I did not get my form.
So that I'm probably going to get a visit at some point.
So I until I get the visit, I mean I don't know, I don't know what uh you know I I haven't seen it, but I'm not surprised by anything you say.
I remember and I gotta tell like really long here.
I just noticed the clock.
Um Emily, I'm sorry I'm I'm not uh I'm not more help here.
Um but you should answer your own.
What are they trying to do?
It's random.
What do they think they're doing?
Um they are trying to intimidate you into giving answers that you think will keep them off your back, and they're trying to redesign congressional districts, they're trying to rig future elections in favor of Democrats.
There's a whole bunch of stuff rolled up into this.
But first and foremost is the intimidation of citizens.
Back in a sec.
All right, Emily from Jacksonville.
I missed something crucial that you said.
I'm sorry.
You said you'd already gotten a census form, and this was a supplemental.
Now, I there are not two census forms.
And the thing that you got that there's a lot of fraud in the census out there.
There's a lot of people sending out phony forms to fill out, send them back, and there are phony Census Bureau people coming to your people's people's doors.
And this happens every census.
Now, I I have I gotta be honest here, I have not ever seen a census form since I left home at age 20.
Wherever I've lived, I've never gotten one.
So I haven't seen this one.
But I just talked to Brian and said, His is two pages.
They basically want to know your race, how many people live in the house, uh, and where you like the vacation.
Or whatever the hell.
It was two pages.
It was nothing to it.
But I checked the email.
A lot of people are getting a second supplemental form they think is from the census.
And it may not be.
I don't know how to identify it.
Well, this I guess I should go out and try to get a census form here so I know what I'm talking about.
I haven't seen one.
I'm I'm 59 years old.
So I'm 20.
I haven't seen a census form in almost 40 years.
I don't know what they've never talked to a census.
I have never been counted that I know of.
I don't know how that happens.
I mean, my this doesn't, but it hasn't.
Anyway, wouldn't it be nice?
If when you went to the doctor, he told you to take care of yourself by taking vitamins, doing exercises.
If you did that, he'd guarantee your health insurance in case of catastrophic health problems with no out-of-pocket expense.
For life, wouldn't that be great?
Yeah, but it's not gonna happen.
But when it comes to your car, it can happen.
BG products offers lifetime protection from catastrophic failure of your engine, transmission, drive line, power steering, and brake systems for the life of your vehicle, even if you sell it.
Now, if you already have an oil chain scheduled, this is important.
Call a shop where you have the appointment, make sure they have BG oil service.
If they don't cancel it, take your car to a shop that does offer BG products.
You can't buy this stuff at the store because it's not that simple to use.
Very scientific.
The reason BG products are not available off the shelf in retail stores is they require trained technicians using professional equipment in order to ensure they are properly maintained and in order to offer lifetime protection and coverage.
There's a website to find out where the nearest BG oil service is to you, 17,000 of them uh dealers, independent shops at uh BG Findashop.com is the website.
Trust me, it's the best.
If you want the best for your card, a lifetime guarantee on the engine, BG products.

Welcome to the EIB network.
Hello, sir.
Hey, thanks, Russ.
Thanks for having me on.
Hey, I just wanted to briefly bring up that letter that Waxman sent out to those corporations.
I read the letter.
I think it's complete and total joke.
Let me tell you what's gonna happen.
These corporations are gonna show up and they're gonna lay their financials out, and they're gonna be able to defend the position that they've made because they have to redo the reporting, and they're not like the government.
They can't just print money out of thin air.
So once they do that, then Obama's gonna have to keep to the one promise of making sure nobody else loses their their health care.
And the way they're gonna do that is they're gonna offer to support these companies that they're too big to fail.
Too many people are gonna suffer and lose their coverage, and so they're gonna nationalize these cut these companies.
They're gonna they're gonna offer to support them, and the people that risk of losing their health insurance, these corporations are gonna support that position.
Interesting.
I hadn't considered that.
That'll be interesting to watch.
I gotta take a quick break.
We'll be back.
Stay with us.
Okay, now I'm fully informed.
What uh what Emily got in Jacksonville is legit.
It's the American Community Survey Forum.
It goes out randomly every year to people.
The census once every ten years, but the American Community Survey uh form goes out randomly to people, and it's up you.
I mean, they'll try to harass you to get you to fill it out, I suppose.
I don't know what happens to you if you don't.
Uh census is another matter, and they can fine you for that.
I'll get the answer to all this by tomorrow, and we'll see you then.
