Time Text
And let me ask you this question, folks.
What's going to happen when that 47% who are not paying any income taxes become 50%, which is certain to happen during the Obama regime?
All you have to know about that is that a family of four making $88,000 a year gets their health care insurance subsidized with the new health insurance bill.
$88,000.
Family of four will have their health insurance subsidized.
by everybody who makes more than $88,000 a year.
April 15th is no longer going to be tax day.
It's going to become Christmas Day to the 50% of the people who don't pay income taxes who are going to soon realize, if they don't get already realize it, that tax increases will lead to a better lifestyle for them.
So this is how you do it.
This is how you create a permanent underclass.
You have to make, we had a call if you just joining us.
Guy from Pennsylvania made $30,000 a year or made $30,000 last year, had $900 in taxes withheld.
His income tax refund is $2,300 because of all of the earned income tax credits and child tax credits and so forth that he qualified for using IRS rules.
And he said he had a crisis of confidence and conscience.
He didn't know what to do with this because he thinks the system sucks.
But it's tough to give the money back.
My grandfather, for his whole life, tried to give his Social Security check back and they wouldn't take it.
So he gave it to charity, created an account, just put the checks in there every month, let it build up and then gave the money to charity at some point.
But regardless, you have to make being poor comfortable.
And this is how you do it.
88 grand a year, which is not poor.
88 grand a year, your health insurance is subsidized under this regime's health care plan.
$50,000 a year and less, and you pay no income tax.
Got to make it comfortable, though.
So people will just be satisfied enough to stay there.
And then hopefully, if you are the one designing the permanent underclass, you want them to quickly learn that their well-being depends on future tax increases.
Now, the super rich, they're protected by their friends in Congress.
The super rich, the people that are rich with no income.
They don't pay.
If you ever wonder why all these rich Democrats always support tax increases, because they don't pay them either, because they don't have earned income.
I'm talking about the super rich who inherited a bunch of money or worked for a lot of money and then retired and have that nest egg of gazillions of dollars and it earns investment income.
They are going to get taxed now with Medicare on that, 3.8% for the first time.
But they take care of their rich buddies.
They take care of themselves and they're taking care of the non-producers.
Anyway, greetings, folks, and welcome back.
I am Rush Limbaugh.
This is the EIB network at the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies.
Also, in the first hour, I threw down all inhibitions and made the point that what is happening in this regime and in Congress is nothing different than what would be called crime and fraud for which you would go to jail in the private sector.
Stealing, bribes, payoffs.
Virtually every way that they used to get this health care bill passed involved criminal activity if it took place at a corporation or a small business or in your neighborhood.
Now, these guys make Bernie Madoff look like a piker.
And these guys, Obama, Pelosi, Reed, they are hurting more people than Bernie Manoff ever dreamed of hurting.
They are bilking more people than Manoff ever dreamed of bilking.
And yet when they do it, it's called compassion.
It's almost virtue, the way they are described, virtuous.
Look at what they do for people.
Look at how much they care for people.
They are stealing.
They are printing money that they don't have.
They are bankrupting the country.
They are destroying the very engine of wealth creation that has enabled them to redistribute this wealth in the first place.
And as they continue to destroy that, they are going to continue to run this country into the ground with more and more debt, higher deficits.
It's a never-ending cycle if the policies of this regime are not stopped.
Here's another example.
Insurance companies.
The states have laws on insurance companies.
We've had this call from our insurance babe in Georgia.
They have a requirement that they have certain cash reserves on hand to pay out claims in case of an emergency or something that involves a lot of claims being paid off at one time.
Shouldn't that apply to government health care?
Shouldn't the federal government have the same requirement that insurance companies have?
Shouldn't they be required to have a cash reserve on hand?
Well, no, they will not have a cash reserve on hand because they don't have any cash.
They are bankrupt.
We don't have any money.
All they'll do is print it or borrow it from someplace, somebody, and spend it.
And they will run these poor private insurance people out of business because the government does not have to make a profit, which is a good thing because there's nobody there that knows how to.
In fact, most of the people in this regime look at profit and sneer.
They see profit as greed.
You know where the real greed is?
The real greed is at the White House.
The real greed is in Pelosi's office.
The real greed is in Harry Reid's office.
The real greed is throughout Washington, D.C. What else would you say?
See, when they talk about rich corporations, greedy corporations, what are they saying?
They're exploiting the proletariat.
They're exploiting people.
They're by high prices, lousy service, and killing them with bad cars and so forth.
And it's just the pursuit of greed.
What the hell is what they are doing if it isn't greed?
They have the power to act on their greed by stealing other people's money, calling it the tax code or calling it printing money they don't have.
You talk about greed.
These are the people that don't spend a dime of their own money, but give yours away in order to buy votes to keep themselves in power.
That's another thing.
You try that at a corporation.
See how long you survive if the SEC hears about it.
Greed?
Corporate sector?
No.
Pursuit of profit?
Yeah.
But that's even been demonized.
These people in the White House, these people in Congress sneer at the very back to profit.
They somehow believe that a company will stay in business with a zero balance sheet.
They spend as much as they earn and they'll keep doing it.
And the company will stay in business.
And they need it to stay in business so they can continue to fleece it.
And yet the thing that allows them to fleece it, profit, they attack.
A little change of subject here because I'm getting bombarded with this.
People are genuinely upset.
that threatened Pelosi, he's not all there mentally.
KGO television in San Francisco is reporting that the mother of this, his name is Greg Gusti, the mother, Eleanor Gusti, who's 83, believes that he got his radical ideas from watching Fox News.
And that's what's being reported.
So they are now criminalizing Fox News.
They're trying to criminalize talk radio.
Let me ask you a question.
What did Fox News do except tell the truth about the health care bill?
Do you people in the White House, do you people in the media, do you ever stop to consider that you have an intelligent, informed electorate who simply doesn't like being raped?
And being raped is what is happening to people in this country by their government?
No other way to put this.
Do you think it's quite possible that people know what's happened here?
They know the financial condition of the country.
They know this can't be sustained.
They know that this government is governing against their will.
They know that 55% of them oppose this.
And you expect them not to be mad?
You think it takes a Fox News or talk radio to work them up?
They're worked up on their own.
These are Americans.
They're far more informed of what's going on than most of you in the media are.
Learn it, love it, live it, and stop trying to criminalize citizenship because it's all that's going on out there back after this.
Welcome back, Rush Limbaugh here on the Excellence in Broadcasting Network.
Yesterday, we went through a detailed explanation of what's wrong in California.
$550 billion in unfunded pension liabilities for state teachers and public employees.
$550 trillion, a billion, over half a trillion dollars.
The taxpayers in the state of California are liable for this.
At some point, the regime is going to have to bail out this state.
And when that happens, guess who calls the shots in the state?
The regime.
The regime calls the shots in the school lunch program and school curriculum because of the school lunch program, wherever they give money.
Look at compensation on TARP-based companies, ownership of the automobile companies, practical ownership of some banks, near ownership.
Once the regime gets its fingers in it, they own it and they run it.
Multiple states are facing level five financial hurricanes and Obama is silent about it.
Every lie, every lie being spewed by a liberal about George Bush's calculated incompetence regarding Katrina and New Orleans and its aftermath is exactly true about Obama.
Multiple states facing cat five financial hurricanes and Obama is silent.
MIA, has Obama ever said a word about what Chris Christie is doing as governor in New Jersey to save it from bankruptcy?
Even Democrats, I got the story here, even Democrats are starting to side with him on cutting back pensions and payoffs and so forth to unions, even Democrats in New Jersey.
Chris Christie, a pleasant political surprise, according to the Washington Examiner.
Has Obama ever once cited this guy and what he's doing as a model for what we need to do around the country or even in Washington?
Of course not.
Is there a plan in place to cut taxes and help grow the job base?
No.
Are there warnings to states they better cut spending and not look to Washington for help?
Of course not.
A disaster preparedness plan exists for all of this.
It's called conservatism, and it will be elected en masse in November.
California, New York, New Jersey, all financially underwater.
The levies, speaking figuratively here, poorly designed and in need of immediate repair.
Unemployment is the storm.
Public sector pensions are the floodwaters.
The state's leaky budgets are the levy.
And Obama is not warning one of them about it.
In fact, he's tacking on more expenses by shifting even more Medicare and Medicaid expenses to the states in his health care plan.
Terese in Littleton, Colorado.
I'm glad you called.
You're on the EIB network.
Hello.
Thank you, Rush.
I am furious.
I've been trying to get on your program for years since 1993.
I've been listening to you.
I'd love to tell you how much I love you and how much you've inspired me and changed my life.
But I don't have time because I'm furious with that gentleman that called.
I am so tired of people looking and saying, oh, I'm guilty, but then doing nothing about it.
You know what?
It's about time that people get off the dole when they don't need to be on it because they're going to the government and knowing that they're going to their neighbors to get a handout versus just getting off their butts and working.
And you know what?
I'm just furious.
My husband and I, my husband and I have made less than $15,000.
Well, less than $20,000 in the past two years in a row because we've worked our asses off up to that point to get him through a doctor program.
We've opened up our own business this year doing up and we're being hit by this insurance thing too because we're an upper cervical spinal clinic and we're cash only because we refuse to be dictated to by insurance companies and by the government.
And it is hard work to be a business owner.
It is hard work to go out and make it on your own.
But I refuse to do it any other way.
And I look to my family for the support that they've given me.
I look to you to empower us to be able to say, yeah, we can do this if we work hard.
And I'm just furious at being in my early 30s and being hit by this is our nation.
What has happened?
You know, you said two days ago, I think it was, or three days ago, you asked about kind of what we think about the generation around us.
And I have to say, the people that we associate with, the friends, our friends are very intelligent people and they work hard.
And most of them are business owners.
And we can really commiserate with one another right now.
And it's just infuriating what is happening.
And really, I thought I was going to call you and I was going to say, you know what?
We're a really awesome generation.
And then I hear that phone call from that gentleman who's just so happy to go to the government to get assistance.
No, no, no, no, wait.
He was not happy.
He said he had a crisis of conscience because he didn't want, he didn't like it at all.
He didn't know what to do with it.
Then stop.
Why do you need to look to somebody else?
No, no, no, wait, wait, wait.
Wait, hold a second.
It's more insidious than that.
He didn't try to get this.
He went to the IRS website.
He filled out his tax form as they directed, put in all the numbers that they said he needed to put in.
And he was shocked to get his $2,300 refund check when his total tax liability was only $900.
The government arranges it.
This is how you go about creating a permanent underclass.
Your anger should not be at this guy because your anger, there are some people out there who are gaming the system this way.
And your anger at them is justified.
Your real anger ought to be at the regime.
It is.
Believe me, it is.
I'm so, I'm just tired of it all.
And I look to the future and I think, really, I don't, there's a part of me that just doesn't know what to do.
And then at the same time, I know that there are intelligent, strong, self-motivated people that would never, never go do that.
And those are the people that are being demonized, like you've said so many times, by the media.
I'm right.
You know, the key part, it's just, I just can't believe it.
I cannot, there are days that I just shake my head.
I think, how is this happening?
Look at what they're doing to this mine owner.
Look at what they're doing to this mine owner up in West Virginia.
They are trying to criminalize this guy, not because of his violations, but because he donated to a legal political party legally, the Republicans.
This blanketship guy, they're trying to criminalize.
Meanwhile, Ram Emmanuel can stand up at a banquet at the head table, start yelling the names of politicians and stab the table with a knife and shout dead.
And nobody gives or care about that.
But they're trying to destroy this guy.
They're trying to criminalize work.
They're trying to say that you and I and everybody else like us that work, we're the ones that are greedy.
We're the ones who need to have our taxes raised because life's been too fair for us.
And these poor people that don't have anything, the theft that is being taken from us, the theft is being performed on us is called virtue and compassion.
It's really, it's just outrageous.
And you know, Rush, in opening this clinic that we've opened, the people that come to us, because we're cash only, the people that come to us are typically people that are either paying individual insurance so they get it or they're not, they really understand, they want to take their health into their own hands.
And so they see the value in it.
And it's our patients that, you know, we help our patients that have insurance get reimbursement for this.
And they're the ones that come in and say, you know, how, why aren't you doing this?
Why aren't you, why aren't you a member of, why aren't you taking insurance?
Why aren't you doing this?
And they actually tend to not see because their employer is paying their insurance for them.
They don't see it.
And so they look at it in a different way.
And it's just, it's amazing to me because I think that that sense of entitlement, I just, how do we get the people that when the more that you're entitled, like, the more that you have this sense of entitlement, you have to keep looking at who's giving you that sense of entitlement?
And if you give them that right, then soon enough they're going to dictate.
And like you said, they're going to act like they are compassionate and they're giving with this whole health care thing.
But you just wait and then they're going to screw you because you've looked to them and you've said, we want you to be the provider.
And guess what?
They're going to screw you.
And I just, I just blows my mind that people don't see it.
Well, no, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait just a second.
If you look at the polling data out there on any issue or at Pelosi, Obama, or Reed, you'll see that a clear majority does get it.
They may not get every stinking detail, but they know something's not right.
And most of them are very sophisticated in their knowledge of what's going on here.
And that is why the Democrats are going to lose bigger than they have ever lost before in November.
It's going to be the equivalent of a political bloodletting.
the anger.
All Obama has to do is do his next agenda item, and he alone keeps the agenda item up and the momentum against him up.
Don't think you're alone out there.
You really aren't.
The real question is, what's going to happen when the under 50% who pay taxes stop paying them?
What's going to happen when they shrug?
That's the question everybody should ask.
Now they tell us.
Now they tell us.
Get this, folks.
This is, what is this from thehill.com on the money blog?
Fundamental changes to the federal budget will be needed to rein in unsustainable deficits, according to the Congressional Budget Office today.
U.S. fiscal policy is unsustainable and unsustainable to an extent that it can't be solved through minor changes, said the CBO director.
Where was this before the health care bill?
How come you didn't tell us this before you scored that health care bill as deficit neutral?
I'll bet you nobody's going to pay attention to this.
They take the CBO's word for gospel when they score legislation and come out with news like this, and it's on a blog.
You have to find it on a blog.
U.S. fiscal policy unsustainable and unsustainable to an extent that it can't be solved through minor changes, said Doug Elmendorf to reporters at a Christian Science Monitor breakfast.
Spending on Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security plus defense programs and debt interest will exceed the rest of the federal budget in 10 years if most of the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts are extended.
What?
As Obama has proposed?
Wait a second.
Obama hadn't proposed extending the Bush tax cuts.
So this clown's blaming tax cuts for this?
Spending on Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security plus defense programs and debt interest will exceed the rest of the federal budget in 10 years.
How about it exceeds it now?
What is a deficit of $1.5 freaking trillion dollars?
If most of the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts are extended as Obama has proposed, Elmendorf, what have I missed here?
The Bush tax cuts are going to sunset at the end of next year, aren't they?
Oh, the middle class tax cuts are going to extend it?
I hadn't heard that.
But where was this?
Where was this analysis before they lopped on off?
Look at, you really can't blame the CBO.
They can only use the number Congress gives them.
And Congress lied to them, gave them a bunch of numbers that don't make any sense whatsoever, just to make sure the CBO score would come in at under $1 trillion.
But the full 10-year cost and expenditure equation on health care as designed is $2.5 trillion, not $900 million.
It's $2.5 trillion.
And now this guy today tells us all this is unsustainable after waving his magic wand and making another $2.5 trillion added to the budget.
Okay.
It gets even worse.
Fed Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke warned yesterday, Americans may have to accept higher taxes or changes in cherished entitlements like Medicare and Social Security if the nation is to avoid staggering budget deficits that threaten to choke off, threaten to choke off economic growth.
How about that have choked off economic growth?
These choices are difficult.
And it always seems easier to put them off until the day they can't be put off anymore.
Bernanke said, unless we as a nation demonstrate a strong commitment to, this is, well, I was going to say this is not our problem, but actually part of it is our problem.
Part of it is blamable on whatever percentage of people in this country who refuse to work and accept their definition of citizenship as being entitled.
Because they do elect people like Obama, who will keep their gravy train flowing.
U.S. faces difficult tax choices, Bernanke says.
Facing unsustainable budget deficits, the U.S. will have to make difficult choices between higher taxes and social spending.
Does anybody really believe that there's going to be any cuts in any spending?
Will there be any cuts in any entity?
Hell, we just added a brand new entitlement.
We're not going to be cutting any entitlements.
This is why I say and why I have been saying, A, I hope he fails, and B, this stuff is being done purposely.
We have a president who does not like this country very much.
We have a president who apparently does not like Americans very much.
And for whatever reason, he's seeking his revenge here for whatever it has done to him or whatever he thinks this nation's done to his brothers and sisters, his people, whoever he's identifying with.
He's out there.
He thinks this country needs to make amends for something, and he's seeing to it that we do.
Who's next on this show?
Kensett Arkansas.
This is Ruth.
Welcome, Ruth.
Great to have you on the program.
Thank you, Mr. Rush.
I appreciate that.
You bet.
Let me just thank you, thank you, thank you for what you do.
I don't know how you do it.
I'm a little nervous here, but we just appreciate what you do.
Thank you very much.
You don't sound nervous at all.
Oh, well, let me tell you, I may get to going here.
We are mad out here, no doubt about it.
I don't really have any great words of wisdom.
And tell you the truth, people may get aggravated at what we do.
One of the things my husband and I do is volunteer for our church's food pantry.
And I can tell you that it is not getting better out there.
We have more people than we have ever seen.
We're a small pantry.
We give away food and clothes once a week.
What kind of food do you give away?
Well, whatever we can get from the food bank and Little Rock.
And it depends on what they have, what we get.
We get canned goods and meats, dry goods, things like that.
You give away food that has to be cooked?
Yes, sir, we do.
And some of it is not.
But some of it is.
Some of it's perishable.
Sometimes there's fresh produce.
It just depends on what's donated to them.
I feel like I'm doing this show in the 1930s.
Yeah, well, you know, I know people, but people are hurting out there.
We have more homeless than we've ever seen before.
We feed between 20 and 30 families a week.
And we're a small pantry.
And we have more people living in churches, living out of their car, moving into garages with friends because they're hurting out there.
And some of these people know they're not looking for work.
We have elderly and retired that need help.
But also we have people that come in that are looking for work.
Every week we have people coming in asking if we have any ideas of work, you know, where they might find work or workloads, you know.
But it is sad out there.
It is hard.
And there's little children living in places like this.
And it's hard on people.
I just don't know how you do what all you do.
Can't even stand to watch Obama, tell you the truth.
How you can watch them and listen to them.
And then, of course, you have to, I know, to report and everything.
But it is unreal.
I tell you, I'm going to tell a little story on myself.
Years ago, oh, back in the last century, as my husband likes to say, he came in one evening and he said, Have you heard about this Rush Limbaugh guy?
And I said, No, I don't think so.
And that was when you were on late night TV.
Yeah.
So we started watching you.
Now, the first time I heard you, I told my husband, I said, He thinks a little bit of himself, doesn't he?
My husband just said, Well, listen, and being the fair-minded person I have always tried to be, I started listening to you.
And you probably said, Boy, they're not going to let this guy stay on the air very long.
Well, it didn't take me too long to learn that you're the man that has the finger on the political pulse of America, no doubt about it.
And we do appreciate what you do, and I know it's hard on you.
My concern is that if we get Republicans, when we get Republicans in there in November, are they going to be able to sustain this?
That in 2012, we won't go back in with another Democrat in there, tell you the truth.
I just hope we're very conservative.
Can't predict the future.
It's going to depend on which kind of Republicans are elected.
It will be Republicans that are elected, there's no question.
You know, as I listened to her, the food pantry and the food bank.
I'm reminded that the federal government routinely advertises food stamps.
What happened to that program?
Are these people somehow ineligible for food stamps?
That would be hard to believe because we've seen the newspaper ads.
You might be eligible for food stamps.
Call the Department of Agriculture this number.
And I'll bet virtually everybody who calls is qualified.
You have to have an address for food stamps?
Maybe.
Well, if that's the case, the government ought to set up a food stamp outlet store for people to go in there, walk in, and have them passed out.
All right.
I'm sorry to do this to you, folks.
We did this story back on the 2nd of April.
Here it is again.
It is from the Greenville, South Carolina News.
10 people illegally in the United States pleaded guilty for their involvement in a four-year, $13 million fraud against the IRS, said acting U.S. Attorney Kevin McDonald.
Nine defendants pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit mail fraud and for entering the U.S. without authorization, according to the assistant U.S. Attorney.
So, 13 illegals have figured out how to bilk the IRS.
Or, well, I guess they did bilk them because they were convicted here.
I was going to ask, maybe they just gave them the money.
And we are back.
Rush Limbaugh.
Fox News just released their poll.
Obama's approval number has hit an all-time low.
I don't know what the number is.
They're not putting that up there.
They just have a little Chiron graphic on the screen as a a.
That's the healthcare law.
39% favorite, 54% opposed.
So the sales job out there is not working.
By the way, you do not need an address to get food stamps from the government's website.
We went and looked it up.
Homeless people and food stamps.
If you are homeless, you can still get food stamps, even if you don't have an address, a place to stay, or a place to cook.
You're considered homeless if you do not have a fixed regular nighttime residence or your primary nighttime residence is temporary in a supervised shelter, a halfway house, the residence of another person, or a place not designed for regular sleeping, such as a hallway.
See, if you live in a hallway, you can get food stamps.
It spreads right from the government's website.
I mean, they're selling this stuff.
We have seen the ads periodically.
At the end of every budget year, they try to get more and poor people to set up food stamps so that the budget doesn't get cut the next year.
Oh, and this is heartwarming.
This is comforting.
As the U.S. Census nears its final stages, and they still haven't found me, as the U.S. Census nears its final stages, the government is preparing for possible debacles that could derail the $15 billion headcount for mass identity theft and lawsuits to homeowners who refuse to answer their doors.
Homeowners are not afraid to answer their doors for the census.
They are not excited about this community survey thing that how many times you flush your toilet.
You know, all these irrelevant questions that are nobody's business.
Speaking of identity, they're worried now mass identity theft.
And in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, they've now had to open a census help office at the city hall.
Mayor Linda Thompson said it's important to get the right information because she has already been the victim of a census scam.
The mayor.
Bernanke had his identity stolen.
The mayor said that she received and filled out a census form a few weeks ago.
She didn't realize it was a fake form until her legitimate census form arrived and it asked for her social security number.
And she's a mayor.
She's not somebody sleeping in a hallway.
She's a mayor and she didn't know that the census does not ask for your social security number.
So these census scammers are out there, folks.
No better time.
And now your government is really worried about mass identity theft.
This is a time to sign up for Life Lock.
Nobody's going to stop identity theft totally.
But when you see articles like this, when I see them, why do people not have Life Lock?
People who don't.
Because when it comes to protecting your family, your identity, why would you go with anybody but Life Lock?
They're the trusted leader here.
They protect your information.
They never sell it to anybody like some of their competitors do.
And their identity alert system is the best there is.
It's cheap.
I mean, it's you hardly notice it.
And it costs even less, 10% less if you mention my name when you call them.
1-800-440-4833.
It's LifeLock.
Offer code Rush.
1-800-440-4833.
Here is Patrick in St. George, Utah.
Great to have you on the EIB network.
Hello.
Hey, thanks for letting me be on.
You bet, sir.
First, what I wanted to say is I've actually haven't listened to the news or anything for about two years.
And I've been going to college.
And two weeks ago, I actually quit college because my wife's building a business and we need more help there.
And that's when I actually started listening to your station.
And I give you congrats everything that you say I believe just because that's my feelings on it too.
Now, to get to the point, earlier you were talking about the housing market.
And I've done real estate and stuff like that.
And I believe that the regime is putting a blanket over our eyes, saying that the market's going to come back with the foreclosure rates slowing down.
But I don't think people understand that there are more than just the three-year adjustable rate mortgages that put us into this situation.
That next year, we're coming up onto the five-year adjustable rate mortgages, six-year adjustable rate mortgages.
That's just going to add to another big wave of foreclosures that will add to the permanent underclass that you keep talking about.
What do you have to say about that?
Well, my theory is a little different on it, but that could be a valid reason.
I think the reason why there could be a second housing bubble is because the unemployment number is going to keep going up.
That's simply people aren't going to be able to pay for the homes that they're in.
And therefore, home prices are going to continue to fall.
Look at all the homes that are underwater now.
And folks, try as you might want to believe it.
Well, I know none of you in this audience believe it, but the government cannot stop any of this kind of stuff.
The government can't make you whole.
The government can't pay your mortgage.
Now, this bunch, this regime will tell you they're going to do it, but they're not.
Folks, look, there may be a bright side to all this.
I remember growing up, I got so sick and tired.
My parents warning me, telling me about the Depression.
You better save your money, son.
You better save your money.
Why, Dad?
The Depression.
I got all these horror stories with the Depression.
Dad, I didn't live through it.
I appreciate the warning, but I can't relate to it.
Well, now maybe so.
Maybe in a few short years, we're going to be able to nag our kids and grandkids about our own Great Recession and maybe get back at them.
And we are back.
Michigan gets $5 million for smart grid job training from the slush fund.
Now, why does anybody need a smart grid?
You know what the purpose of a smart grid is?
It is to let the regime control your thermostat.
That's why you put in a smart grid.
And so $5 million for smart grid job training in Michigan.
