1
00:00:05,749 --> 00:00:04,470
[Music]

2
00:00:07,110 --> 00:00:05,759
explain to everybody what did the

3
00:00:09,350 --> 00:00:07,120
founders mean

4
00:00:10,950 --> 00:00:09,360
uh when they said that all men are

5
00:00:11,830 --> 00:00:10,960
created equal in the declaration of

6
00:00:13,509 --> 00:00:11,840
independence

7
00:00:15,190 --> 00:00:13,519
well they meant all people are created

8
00:00:17,349 --> 00:00:15,200
equal in those days that

9
00:00:18,550 --> 00:00:17,359
you know just only recently stopped you

10
00:00:20,950 --> 00:00:18,560
know saying

11
00:00:22,390 --> 00:00:20,960
men for humankind so i mean all humans

12
00:00:25,349 --> 00:00:22,400
are created equal first

13
00:00:26,710 --> 00:00:25,359
but to understand that you have to

14
00:00:29,589 --> 00:00:26,720
understand

15
00:00:30,230 --> 00:00:29,599
the context in which it was said at that

16
00:00:31,910 --> 00:00:30,240
time

17
00:00:33,910 --> 00:00:31,920
what we had in the world was utter

18
00:00:36,310 --> 00:00:33,920
inequality everywhere

19
00:00:37,110 --> 00:00:36,320
you traveled east or you traveled west

20
00:00:41,190 --> 00:00:37,120
people were

21
00:00:42,790 --> 00:00:41,200
subjects to monarchs who were the state

22
00:00:44,229 --> 00:00:42,800
and people so the whole system

23
00:00:45,270 --> 00:00:44,239
everywhere was based on the

24
00:00:48,150 --> 00:00:45,280
idea that there were some who were born

25
00:00:50,869 --> 00:00:48,160
to rule tiny you know one person

26
00:00:52,310 --> 00:00:50,879
right and his cohort and everybody else

27
00:00:54,069 --> 00:00:52,320
was born to be ruled

28
00:00:55,990 --> 00:00:54,079
that was just the way it was it was

29
00:00:58,950 --> 00:00:56,000
accepted as the way of things

30
00:00:59,349 --> 00:00:58,960
so when the founders came out and said

31
00:01:02,389 --> 00:00:59,359
uh

32
00:01:03,990 --> 00:01:02,399
all people are created equal

33
00:01:05,670 --> 00:01:04,000
what they were standing against with

34
00:01:09,670 --> 00:01:05,680
this worldwide

35
00:01:13,109 --> 00:01:09,680
uh system of kings and emperors

36
00:01:14,630 --> 00:01:13,119
and subjects that's the context of that

37
00:01:18,310 --> 00:01:14,640
claim

38
00:01:21,350 --> 00:01:18,320
and also very significant that

39
00:01:23,429 --> 00:01:21,360
it's are created equal

40
00:01:24,710 --> 00:01:23,439
right we're talking about again i guess

41
00:01:26,630 --> 00:01:24,720
i'm repeating what you just said but but

42
00:01:28,310 --> 00:01:26,640
but that it's at birth

43
00:01:30,310 --> 00:01:28,320
is what is the equality that we're

44
00:01:33,510 --> 00:01:30,320
talking about yeah that's right

45
00:01:36,230 --> 00:01:33,520
so so one guy born doesn't now

46
00:01:37,910 --> 00:01:36,240
become the future king and one person

47
00:01:40,630 --> 00:01:37,920
born doesn't then become

48
00:01:41,109 --> 00:01:40,640
you know a subject for life unable to

49
00:01:44,550 --> 00:01:41,119
even

50
00:01:45,590 --> 00:01:44,560
leave without permission that so so that

51
00:01:46,950 --> 00:01:45,600
happens at birth

52
00:01:49,350 --> 00:01:46,960
but you know they've got that word in

53
00:01:51,190 --> 00:01:49,360
there created created and then just a

54
00:01:53,350 --> 00:01:51,200
few words later it says creator

55
00:01:55,510 --> 00:01:53,360
to make the point clear there's no

56
00:01:57,270 --> 00:01:55,520
question that for the founders

57
00:01:58,870 --> 00:01:57,280
we're talking about the nature of things

58
00:02:01,510 --> 00:01:58,880
as a result of

59
00:02:02,469 --> 00:02:01,520
what kind of creatures we are and what

60
00:02:06,550 --> 00:02:02,479
and what's

61
00:02:07,429 --> 00:02:06,560
what created us and how how truly unique

62
00:02:09,910 --> 00:02:07,439
was it at

63
00:02:10,710 --> 00:02:09,920
the time were there other countries

64
00:02:13,910 --> 00:02:10,720
before us

65
00:02:16,229 --> 00:02:13,920
that that had declared the same thing no

66
00:02:18,150 --> 00:02:16,239
it was it was a it was a it was a

67
00:02:19,430 --> 00:02:18,160
basically a contradiction in terms

68
00:02:20,710 --> 00:02:19,440
i mean people could look around the

69
00:02:22,710 --> 00:02:20,720
world and say well that's not true

70
00:02:23,430 --> 00:02:22,720
there's not they're not equality

71
00:02:27,589 --> 00:02:23,440
anywhere

72
00:02:29,430 --> 00:02:27,599
it was such a radical idea that it was

73
00:02:31,589 --> 00:02:29,440
that it was you know considered really

74
00:02:32,790 --> 00:02:31,599
by learned experts the experts of their

75
00:02:34,710 --> 00:02:32,800
time you know the people who tell us

76
00:02:36,470 --> 00:02:34,720
about global warming

77
00:02:38,550 --> 00:02:36,480
you know now what the experts in those

78
00:02:40,710 --> 00:02:38,560
days said what

79
00:02:41,670 --> 00:02:40,720
this whole system can't work it'll it'll

80
00:02:45,190 --> 00:02:41,680
fail

81
00:02:48,390 --> 00:02:45,200
what happened instead was that all those

82
00:02:51,589 --> 00:02:48,400
courtiers were to watch as the

83
00:02:53,830 --> 00:02:51,599
regimes based on this strange idea of

84
00:02:55,030 --> 00:02:53,840
rulers enrolled collapsed around them we

85
00:02:57,670 --> 00:02:55,040
don't have

86
00:02:59,270 --> 00:02:57,680
any nowhere in the real in any

87
00:03:01,030 --> 00:02:59,280
significance in this world do we have

88
00:03:03,589 --> 00:03:01,040
that system anymore which was the system

89
00:03:04,229 --> 00:03:03,599
everywhere i mean saudi arabia's got a

90
00:03:05,910 --> 00:03:04,239
king an

91
00:03:07,990 --> 00:03:05,920
official religion but that's kind of a

92
00:03:10,229 --> 00:03:08,000
special place basically

93
00:03:11,350 --> 00:03:10,239
kings and emperors are now ceremonial

94
00:03:13,750 --> 00:03:11,360
figures

95
00:03:14,949 --> 00:03:13,760
so america gets credit for basically

96
00:03:18,070 --> 00:03:14,959
putting the end

97
00:03:20,790 --> 00:03:18,080
putting an end to kingdoms we did it and

98
00:03:21,350 --> 00:03:20,800
uh you know late in his life jefferson

99
00:03:23,990 --> 00:03:21,360
said

100
00:03:24,710 --> 00:03:24,000
everybody's eyes are opening to this

101
00:03:26,550 --> 00:03:24,720
truth

102
00:03:28,070 --> 00:03:26,560
that all people are created equal

103
00:03:31,670 --> 00:03:28,080
there's no such people

104
00:03:35,270 --> 00:03:31,680
that none are born to be ridden

105
00:03:37,910 --> 00:03:35,280
and none are born to ride you know

106
00:03:39,110 --> 00:03:37,920
and so he was so he found her jefferson

107
00:03:41,030 --> 00:03:39,120
said it beautifully but

108
00:03:43,430 --> 00:03:41,040
the founders understood that they were

109
00:03:44,869 --> 00:03:43,440
about to turn the world right side up

110
00:03:47,509 --> 00:03:44,879
they understood the

111
00:03:48,470 --> 00:03:47,519
teaching mission of the american idea

112
00:03:50,149 --> 00:03:48,480
and

113
00:03:52,309 --> 00:03:50,159
not only has america been the most

114
00:03:53,429 --> 00:03:52,319
resplendently successful nation in the

115
00:03:55,350 --> 00:03:53,439
history of the world

116
00:03:58,149 --> 00:03:55,360
it changed the system around the world

117
00:04:00,949 --> 00:03:58,159
simply by example

118
00:04:02,070 --> 00:04:00,959
yeah they were truly radicals at the

119
00:04:03,990 --> 00:04:02,080
time

120
00:04:05,350 --> 00:04:04,000
truly radical and i know i know you've

121
00:04:06,949 --> 00:04:05,360
you've written about that yeah

122
00:04:08,710 --> 00:04:06,959
yeah it's really important to understand

123
00:04:10,789 --> 00:04:08,720
what a radical idea this was

124
00:04:12,149 --> 00:04:10,799
this is the american regime is the most

125
00:04:13,830 --> 00:04:12,159
radical attempt

126
00:04:15,190 --> 00:04:13,840
to bring about human liberty in the

127
00:04:18,150 --> 00:04:15,200
history of mankind

128
00:04:18,789 --> 00:04:18,160
it still is it's completely based on the

129
00:04:21,990 --> 00:04:18,799
idea that

130
00:04:24,390 --> 00:04:22,000
we the people are capable of self-rule

131
00:04:25,030 --> 00:04:24,400
which was just considered crazy at the

132
00:04:27,110 --> 00:04:25,040
time

133
00:04:28,469 --> 00:04:27,120
people need countries need kings and

134
00:04:30,150 --> 00:04:28,479
queens and emperors

135
00:04:31,909 --> 00:04:30,160
like the solar system needs the sun that

136
00:04:36,629 --> 00:04:31,919
was the idea and we

137
00:04:38,790 --> 00:04:36,639
showed that it was just a false belief

138
00:04:40,310 --> 00:04:38,800
yeah i think it is really important for

139
00:04:40,950 --> 00:04:40,320
people to teach younger people how

140
00:04:44,070 --> 00:04:40,960
radical

141
00:04:47,189 --> 00:04:44,080
today in america are

142
00:04:50,310 --> 00:04:47,199
arguing for the exact opposite right and

143
00:04:52,870 --> 00:04:50,320
you're stodgy and mainstream

144
00:04:53,909 --> 00:04:52,880
to talk about the founders and the

145
00:04:56,550 --> 00:04:53,919
founding

146
00:04:57,670 --> 00:04:56,560
when as you point out that no that is

147
00:05:01,430 --> 00:04:57,680
the radical

148
00:05:04,070 --> 00:05:01,440
arguing against

149
00:05:05,590 --> 00:05:04,080
that radical notion they want to go they

150
00:05:08,230 --> 00:05:05,600
want to go back in time

151
00:05:09,909 --> 00:05:08,240
oh yes you have that is good for you

152
00:05:11,430 --> 00:05:09,919
that's exactly what they're doing

153
00:05:14,390 --> 00:05:11,440
they're arguing for us to go

154
00:05:15,189 --> 00:05:14,400
back to a time when there's rulers and

155
00:05:18,150 --> 00:05:15,199
and and

156
00:05:19,510 --> 00:05:18,160
the so the rat because you know because

157
00:05:21,990 --> 00:05:19,520
the american idea is like

158
00:05:23,110 --> 00:05:22,000
the ultimate in radicalism crazy idea we

159
00:05:26,950 --> 00:05:23,120
can rule ourselves

160
00:05:29,110 --> 00:05:26,960
anything that goes away from that is is

161
00:05:31,510 --> 00:05:29,120
these radicals have only one way to go

162
00:05:35,029 --> 00:05:31,520
which is back to what we overcame

163
00:05:37,029 --> 00:05:35,039
rulers yeah they here's a quote i think

164
00:05:38,790 --> 00:05:37,039
from one of your pieces the creation of

165
00:05:41,110 --> 00:05:38,800
the us it was the most

166
00:05:42,070 --> 00:05:41,120
radical attempt to establish a regime of

167
00:05:45,270 --> 00:05:42,080
liberty

168
00:05:46,390 --> 00:05:45,280
in the entire history of mankind these

169
00:05:49,430 --> 00:05:46,400
men were brilliant

170
00:05:51,990 --> 00:05:49,440
but also the opposite of traditional

171
00:05:53,350 --> 00:05:52,000
yeah they were overthrowing tradition

172
00:05:56,950 --> 00:05:53,360
everywhere

173
00:05:57,430 --> 00:05:56,960
and uh and uh thanks for reading that

174
00:05:59,029 --> 00:05:57,440
quote

175
00:06:02,230 --> 00:05:59,039
i think you read it i think it was i

176
00:06:08,790 --> 00:06:05,270
so um now let's talk about

177
00:06:09,430 --> 00:06:08,800
equality that we talk about today and

178
00:06:11,909 --> 00:06:09,440
compare it

179
00:06:13,430 --> 00:06:11,919
uh to what the founders had in mind i

180
00:06:16,629 --> 00:06:13,440
mean let's just start with

181
00:06:18,550 --> 00:06:16,639
what would the founders reaction be to

182
00:06:20,629 --> 00:06:18,560
these protesters

183
00:06:22,230 --> 00:06:20,639
that are in the streets and and this

184
00:06:23,510 --> 00:06:22,240
radical movement today what would that

185
00:06:25,510 --> 00:06:23,520
what would they say about it

186
00:06:26,950 --> 00:06:25,520
well you said it best it would be taking

187
00:06:27,670 --> 00:06:26,960
us in the wrong direction ruled by the

188
00:06:29,670 --> 00:06:27,680
mob

189
00:06:30,870 --> 00:06:29,680
you know that's what they you know the

190
00:06:32,629 --> 00:06:30,880
french

191
00:06:34,870 --> 00:06:32,639
didn't understand what was going on and

192
00:06:38,150 --> 00:06:34,880
they had that crazy french revolution

193
00:06:39,110 --> 00:06:38,160
you know uh which which was you know

194
00:06:41,830 --> 00:06:39,120
those mobs

195
00:06:42,710 --> 00:06:41,840
and uh and people's heads on st on

196
00:06:44,629 --> 00:06:42,720
stakes

197
00:06:46,070 --> 00:06:44,639
and a lot of people got uh guillotined

198
00:06:47,510 --> 00:06:46,080
remember that and then

199
00:06:50,070 --> 00:06:47,520
that thing kind of fell apart and then

200
00:06:52,870 --> 00:06:50,080
pretty soon they had napoleon

201
00:06:53,670 --> 00:06:52,880
um you know who was ruled as a military

202
00:06:56,150 --> 00:06:53,680
dictator

203
00:06:56,790 --> 00:06:56,160
kind of on the model of you know hitler

204
00:07:00,150 --> 00:06:56,800
that kind of

205
00:07:03,430 --> 00:07:00,160
in many ways and uh so what happened is

206
00:07:06,070 --> 00:07:03,440
when you go for the mob rule you go for

207
00:07:07,189 --> 00:07:06,080
killing off the uh eating the rich and

208
00:07:10,230 --> 00:07:07,199
all that sort of thing

209
00:07:11,110 --> 00:07:10,240
what happens is know from history what

210
00:07:14,469 --> 00:07:11,120
happens is

211
00:07:17,029 --> 00:07:14,479
breakdown of social order and and the

212
00:07:18,550 --> 00:07:17,039
clear risk even here is of someone

213
00:07:21,670 --> 00:07:18,560
taking over

214
00:07:24,710 --> 00:07:21,680
um the way napoleon did that's

215
00:07:27,749 --> 00:07:24,720
that's the game the american revolution

216
00:07:29,990 --> 00:07:27,759
moved towards liberty for all

217
00:07:32,230 --> 00:07:30,000
and also created a situation where we

218
00:07:34,230 --> 00:07:32,240
were able to become the most prosperous

219
00:07:36,309 --> 00:07:34,240
country in the world the french

220
00:07:37,990 --> 00:07:36,319
revolution based on mistaken ideas of

221
00:07:41,350 --> 00:07:38,000
equality

222
00:07:44,469 --> 00:07:41,360
resulted in chaos murder

223
00:07:45,350 --> 00:07:44,479
and finally tyranny and and and what was

224
00:07:49,430 --> 00:07:45,360
the f

225
00:07:53,430 --> 00:07:49,440
their view of equality

226
00:07:54,390 --> 00:07:53,440
the uh the uh um the the brilliance of

227
00:07:57,270 --> 00:07:54,400
the founders is

228
00:07:58,309 --> 00:07:57,280
no place more clear and the fact that

229
00:08:01,670 --> 00:07:58,319
they understood

230
00:08:05,029 --> 00:08:01,680
that equality only works if you have it

231
00:08:07,189 --> 00:08:05,039
together with unalienable rights if you

232
00:08:09,189 --> 00:08:07,199
if you have you have the idea of

233
00:08:11,029 --> 00:08:09,199
equality and you have the idea that

234
00:08:12,869 --> 00:08:11,039
you have your unanimous rights i have

235
00:08:15,830 --> 00:08:12,879
mine you all do

236
00:08:16,550 --> 00:08:15,840
then the system can work the french

237
00:08:19,270 --> 00:08:16,560
actually

238
00:08:21,029 --> 00:08:19,280
believed i know it sounds crazy but it

239
00:08:23,670 --> 00:08:21,039
you know rousseau actually said

240
00:08:25,749 --> 00:08:23,680
that you know that the assist what the

241
00:08:27,990 --> 00:08:25,759
system requires is that every person

242
00:08:29,909 --> 00:08:28,000
alienate their rights to the state

243
00:08:33,029 --> 00:08:29,919
completely

244
00:08:33,750 --> 00:08:33,039
and that was their idea so so the the

245
00:08:35,750 --> 00:08:33,760
idea was

246
00:08:36,790 --> 00:08:35,760
we're going to have equality enforced by

247
00:08:39,190 --> 00:08:36,800
the state

248
00:08:40,870 --> 00:08:39,200
as a and the means of it is we all

249
00:08:41,990 --> 00:08:40,880
alienate our rights to the state that's

250
00:08:43,750 --> 00:08:42,000
what happened

251
00:08:45,509 --> 00:08:43,760
it was a bit it was just it was crazy

252
00:08:49,350 --> 00:08:45,519
but i mean would you

253
00:08:52,070 --> 00:08:49,360
would you compare it to the view of

254
00:08:52,870 --> 00:08:52,080
black lives matter to as a pick one

255
00:08:55,590 --> 00:08:52,880
organization

256
00:08:56,470 --> 00:08:55,600
or you know the progressive movement in

257
00:08:59,910 --> 00:08:56,480
in america

258
00:09:02,230 --> 00:08:59,920
that um seems to have this utopian view

259
00:09:04,150 --> 00:09:02,240
that's the end result for everyone will

260
00:09:06,150 --> 00:09:04,160
be the same

261
00:09:07,190 --> 00:09:06,160
it's basically exactly right your

262
00:09:09,430 --> 00:09:07,200
question is so

263
00:09:11,430 --> 00:09:09,440
brilliant because what we're what we did

264
00:09:12,470 --> 00:09:11,440
is we had the one successful revolution

265
00:09:14,550 --> 00:09:12,480
in the history of the world

266
00:09:16,310 --> 00:09:14,560
you know the american revolution what's

267
00:09:17,430 --> 00:09:16,320
happening now is an attempt to replace

268
00:09:19,350 --> 00:09:17,440
that revolution

269
00:09:20,550 --> 00:09:19,360
let's let's do this over and let's do it

270
00:09:22,230 --> 00:09:20,560
the way the french did

271
00:09:23,910 --> 00:09:22,240
well if we do it over the way the french

272
00:09:25,350 --> 00:09:23,920
did it's pretty clear

273
00:09:26,790 --> 00:09:25,360
we know how it turned out for france

274
00:09:29,269 --> 00:09:26,800
there's no reason to believe it wouldn't

275
00:09:32,070 --> 00:09:29,279
turn out that way for us

276
00:09:33,269 --> 00:09:32,080
so here's a perfect example to to use to

277
00:09:35,509 --> 00:09:33,279
talk about how its

278
00:09:36,310 --> 00:09:35,519
equality is getting perverted i don't

279
00:09:38,070 --> 00:09:36,320
know if you've

280
00:09:40,150 --> 00:09:38,080
you probably are aware of this but you

281
00:09:43,430 --> 00:09:40,160
know in california right now

282
00:09:45,269 --> 00:09:43,440
uh you know one one person

283
00:09:47,269 --> 00:09:45,279
knew some maybe a couple other people

284
00:09:48,949 --> 00:09:47,279
because we also have

285
00:09:50,630 --> 00:09:48,959
people making independent decisions in

286
00:09:52,870 --> 00:09:50,640
each jurisdiction whether it be a

287
00:09:55,030 --> 00:09:52,880
county health official telling you when

288
00:09:56,949 --> 00:09:55,040
you're allowed to go outside

289
00:09:58,389 --> 00:09:56,959
but you also have newsome creating these

290
00:10:00,870 --> 00:09:58,399
rules and

291
00:10:02,630 --> 00:10:00,880
just when it looked like los angeles was

292
00:10:06,310 --> 00:10:02,640
close to meeting our covid

293
00:10:09,910 --> 00:10:06,320
requirements of x percent infected

294
00:10:11,910 --> 00:10:09,920
and below a certain number per day

295
00:10:13,269 --> 00:10:11,920
the state came up with a new rule that

296
00:10:16,069 --> 00:10:13,279
said well it's not

297
00:10:18,230 --> 00:10:16,079
enough for the county's numbers to be

298
00:10:21,590 --> 00:10:18,240
below the thresholds

299
00:10:22,389 --> 00:10:21,600
each minority community within that

300
00:10:24,630 --> 00:10:22,399
county

301
00:10:26,230 --> 00:10:24,640
oh yeah this came out just a few days

302
00:10:26,790 --> 00:10:26,240
ago this is why we're not going to open

303
00:10:28,150 --> 00:10:26,800
anything

304
00:10:30,870 --> 00:10:28,160
each minority community now they

305
00:10:34,230 --> 00:10:30,880
identify which minority communities

306
00:10:36,870 --> 00:10:34,240
it's african-american it's latino

307
00:10:38,310 --> 00:10:36,880
in its pacific islander those are the

308
00:10:41,430 --> 00:10:38,320
three communities

309
00:10:43,030 --> 00:10:41,440
that if there's pockets in within your

310
00:10:44,870 --> 00:10:43,040
county those communities must

311
00:10:46,470 --> 00:10:44,880
test also below those numbers and

312
00:10:48,230 --> 00:10:46,480
everyone must wait

313
00:10:49,990 --> 00:10:48,240
for them to get their numbers down to

314
00:10:50,470 --> 00:10:50,000
where everybody else is and that's you

315
00:10:52,790 --> 00:10:50,480
know that's

316
00:10:53,509 --> 00:10:52,800
that's just healthcare quality that you

317
00:10:56,389 --> 00:10:53,519
hear about

318
00:10:58,949 --> 00:10:56,399
health equity i think is the term so

319
00:11:01,269 --> 00:10:58,959
what's wrong with health equity

320
00:11:02,710 --> 00:11:01,279
meaning that everybody gets the same

321
00:11:05,990 --> 00:11:02,720
level of health care

322
00:11:08,710 --> 00:11:06,000
right if you're the founders

323
00:11:10,870 --> 00:11:08,720
shouldn't you love that idea no that's

324
00:11:12,790 --> 00:11:10,880
not their idea of equality at all

325
00:11:14,310 --> 00:11:12,800
their idea the quality is that you know

326
00:11:16,870 --> 00:11:14,320
that that we

327
00:11:18,230 --> 00:11:16,880
are uh not born to be ruled and we can

328
00:11:20,150 --> 00:11:18,240
rule ourselves and we will rule

329
00:11:22,150 --> 00:11:20,160
ourselves by this system that we

330
00:11:23,910 --> 00:11:22,160
designed do you like it americans said

331
00:11:26,230 --> 00:11:23,920
yes or we get to pick our

332
00:11:27,430 --> 00:11:26,240
our our leaders in government who work

333
00:11:30,389 --> 00:11:27,440
as our agents

334
00:11:31,030 --> 00:11:30,399
well you know newsom is a is a tyrant

335
00:11:32,870 --> 00:11:31,040
you know

336
00:11:35,430 --> 00:11:32,880
and these uh these crazy things that

337
00:11:37,750 --> 00:11:35,440
he's doing are um

338
00:11:39,590 --> 00:11:37,760
unbelievable the founders wouldn't

339
00:11:42,470 --> 00:11:39,600
believe in doing it

340
00:11:43,750 --> 00:11:42,480
that way the idea is all human beings

341
00:11:46,389 --> 00:11:43,760
are created equal

342
00:11:47,350 --> 00:11:46,399
so this kind of equality is the one that

343
00:11:51,190 --> 00:11:47,360
that says

344
00:11:52,949 --> 00:11:51,200
if there's more people in physics

345
00:11:54,710 --> 00:11:52,959
well if they're more men in physics than

346
00:11:56,870 --> 00:11:54,720
women we have to fix that

347
00:11:58,550 --> 00:11:56,880
ratio which is you know everything has

348
00:12:00,629 --> 00:11:58,560
to be equal but that's crazy of course

349
00:12:01,910 --> 00:12:00,639
because um people have different

350
00:12:04,389 --> 00:12:01,920
interests and talents

351
00:12:06,470 --> 00:12:04,399
um well the the en i mean to create the

352
00:12:08,310 --> 00:12:06,480
the give out the dumb example but uh the

353
00:12:08,710 --> 00:12:08,320
nba needs to be finished that's where i

354
00:12:09,910 --> 00:12:08,720
was going

355
00:12:11,990 --> 00:12:09,920
right there's far too many african

356
00:12:13,910 --> 00:12:12,000
americans i'm sorry you called it a dumb

357
00:12:15,829 --> 00:12:13,920
example that's exactly where i was going

358
00:12:17,670 --> 00:12:15,839
i mean you know it's because it's so

359
00:12:19,829 --> 00:12:17,680
obvious yeah it's not

360
00:12:21,750 --> 00:12:19,839
why is it that why is if that's so if if

361
00:12:24,310 --> 00:12:21,760
more men are physicists than women

362
00:12:25,110 --> 00:12:24,320
why isn't it a problem that you know

363
00:12:28,389 --> 00:12:25,120
that uh

364
00:12:29,829 --> 00:12:28,399
it wasn't a scandal right so

365
00:12:31,509 --> 00:12:29,839
there's really two problems it seems to

366
00:12:34,310 --> 00:12:31,519
me from the founders would have

367
00:12:35,430 --> 00:12:34,320
with this uh looking at these minority

368
00:12:37,030 --> 00:12:35,440
communities and the health and the

369
00:12:38,069 --> 00:12:37,040
minority communities one is you're

370
00:12:41,350 --> 00:12:38,079
identifying groups

371
00:12:42,230 --> 00:12:41,360
based on their their race right ethnic

372
00:12:45,269 --> 00:12:42,240
background

373
00:12:48,310 --> 00:12:45,279
right and number two you're looking for

374
00:12:49,990 --> 00:12:48,320
health equality among all people when

375
00:12:53,190 --> 00:12:50,000
the founders were not concerned about

376
00:12:55,750 --> 00:12:53,200
that type of equality at all at all the

377
00:12:57,509 --> 00:12:55,760
whole notion that that that that jeff

378
00:12:58,949 --> 00:12:57,519
bezos has more money than you and i do

379
00:12:59,910 --> 00:12:58,959
and that you're better looking than i am

380
00:13:03,590 --> 00:12:59,920
it's some kind of

381
00:13:05,030 --> 00:13:03,600
you know equality

382
00:13:06,790 --> 00:13:05,040
it's just it's just not just not what

383
00:13:08,389 --> 00:13:06,800
they were thinking about but they were

384
00:13:09,750 --> 00:13:08,399
there's a communist idea that says we

385
00:13:10,150 --> 00:13:09,760
have to take all the wealth from the

386
00:13:12,230 --> 00:13:10,160
middle

387
00:13:13,269 --> 00:13:12,240
street and everybody gets exactly the

388
00:13:17,190 --> 00:13:13,279
same slice

389
00:13:20,389 --> 00:13:17,200
that's a that's an idea that really um

390
00:13:21,509 --> 00:13:20,399
it came as not to get too complicated

391
00:13:24,790 --> 00:13:21,519
but it came part of

392
00:13:27,350 --> 00:13:24,800
as part of a reaction to what america

393
00:13:28,069 --> 00:13:27,360
showed about how things could be so you

394
00:13:30,470 --> 00:13:28,079
know the

395
00:13:31,269 --> 00:13:30,480
the marxist thing happened you know like

396
00:13:33,750 --> 00:13:31,279
like

397
00:13:35,110 --> 00:13:33,760
you know almost a century later it got

398
00:13:37,269 --> 00:13:35,120
it got going

399
00:13:39,509 --> 00:13:37,279
and it was part of a reaction to the

400
00:13:42,310 --> 00:13:39,519
founders and not at fulfillment

401
00:13:43,189 --> 00:13:42,320
so what's wrong with trying to make

402
00:13:47,670 --> 00:13:43,199
health care

403
00:13:53,110 --> 00:13:50,389
it's the it's this it's not the idea of

404
00:13:54,790 --> 00:13:53,120
equality that the founders had

405
00:13:56,949 --> 00:13:54,800
they so that's one of the mix you know

406
00:14:00,069 --> 00:13:56,959
so equality gets

407
00:14:01,189 --> 00:14:00,079
is being used as if you know it's from

408
00:14:03,910 --> 00:14:01,199
the

409
00:14:05,269 --> 00:14:03,920
declaration what is actually being used

410
00:14:08,389 --> 00:14:05,279
to promote is basically

411
00:14:09,990 --> 00:14:08,399
a communist idea right so let's get

412
00:14:11,750 --> 00:14:10,000
but let's just divorce ourselves from

413
00:14:12,870 --> 00:14:11,760
the founders for a second and just

414
00:14:15,110 --> 00:14:12,880
say you know what's wrong with it in

415
00:14:17,269 --> 00:14:15,120
general yeah what would the founders say

416
00:14:18,710 --> 00:14:17,279
if they were alive today to this idea

417
00:14:20,710 --> 00:14:18,720
that hey

418
00:14:21,910 --> 00:14:20,720
we're our push is to make health care

419
00:14:23,269 --> 00:14:21,920
equal for

420
00:14:25,110 --> 00:14:23,279
everyone that should be an important

421
00:14:30,069 --> 00:14:25,120
objective and the government

422
00:14:33,590 --> 00:14:30,079
should ensure that everyone in america

423
00:14:34,470 --> 00:14:33,600
gets equal healthcare you know it's one

424
00:14:37,670 --> 00:14:34,480
of the i would say

425
00:14:38,310 --> 00:14:37,680
if i have a single criticism of the

426
00:14:40,710 --> 00:14:38,320
founders

427
00:14:41,509 --> 00:14:40,720
and and i say that as someone who who

428
00:14:43,430 --> 00:14:41,519
respects them

429
00:14:44,870 --> 00:14:43,440
so much the more time i spend thinking

430
00:14:48,230 --> 00:14:44,880
about them and reading them

431
00:14:51,430 --> 00:14:48,240
the more my respect grows

432
00:14:53,990 --> 00:14:51,440
but then the mistake they made

433
00:14:55,350 --> 00:14:54,000
that was evident now that it never even

434
00:14:57,910 --> 00:14:55,360
occurred to them then

435
00:14:59,110 --> 00:14:57,920
was the the american founder should

436
00:15:01,430 --> 00:14:59,120
emphasize

437
00:15:02,150 --> 00:15:01,440
freedom of religious care of freedom of

438
00:15:05,269 --> 00:15:02,160
health care

439
00:15:06,949 --> 00:15:05,279
just like they emphasized a religious

440
00:15:09,030 --> 00:15:06,959
conviction i mean that was like the

441
00:15:12,470 --> 00:15:09,040
biggest thing to the founders really

442
00:15:14,949 --> 00:15:12,480
that the big change they made was

443
00:15:16,550 --> 00:15:14,959
that there wasn't a state religion it

444
00:15:17,829 --> 00:15:16,560
wasn't going to be a state religion

445
00:15:19,750 --> 00:15:17,839
certainly there was in every other

446
00:15:21,110 --> 00:15:19,760
country with the monarch so here we're

447
00:15:24,790 --> 00:15:21,120
going to have religious freedom

448
00:15:27,189 --> 00:15:24,800
and that was madison's most ardent

449
00:15:28,150 --> 00:15:27,199
concern and belief founders were really

450
00:15:29,910 --> 00:15:28,160
big on all that

451
00:15:31,509 --> 00:15:29,920
they just didn't see what was possible

452
00:15:33,430 --> 00:15:31,519
for medicine

453
00:15:34,550 --> 00:15:33,440
and they should have if they had known

454
00:15:35,670 --> 00:15:34,560
and they didn't know and so they're

455
00:15:37,590 --> 00:15:35,680
completely forgiven

456
00:15:39,030 --> 00:15:37,600
by everyone who thinks about it they

457
00:15:43,509 --> 00:15:39,040
should have emphasized that

458
00:15:44,790 --> 00:15:43,519
the need of freedom of health care

459
00:15:47,990 --> 00:15:44,800
you're happening to you haven't talked

460
00:15:51,749 --> 00:15:48,000
to somebody who um

461
00:15:52,710 --> 00:15:51,759
is very skeptical of much that goes on

462
00:15:55,269 --> 00:15:52,720
in medicine

463
00:15:58,150 --> 00:15:55,279
and extremely alarmed by the idea that

464
00:16:01,670 --> 00:16:00,949
straightjacketed into a certain level of

465
00:16:05,670 --> 00:16:01,680
government

466
00:16:09,990 --> 00:16:05,680
dispensed rationed and uh and

467
00:16:11,990 --> 00:16:10,000
and bureaucratic care as like they have

468
00:16:14,629 --> 00:16:12,000
for example in england are you familiar

469
00:16:17,350 --> 00:16:14,639
with that you know with the scandals of

470
00:16:18,230 --> 00:16:17,360
people laying in you know in hospitals

471
00:16:19,910 --> 00:16:18,240
and gurneys

472
00:16:21,430 --> 00:16:19,920
you know in halls and dying and stuff

473
00:16:24,710 --> 00:16:21,440
like that because because

474
00:16:26,550 --> 00:16:24,720
places run bureaucratically i mean i can

475
00:16:28,470 --> 00:16:26,560
i'm going on too long but i now have my

476
00:16:30,230 --> 00:16:28,480
answer

477
00:16:31,590 --> 00:16:30,240
remember back when at the beginning of

478
00:16:33,590 --> 00:16:31,600
the trump administration

479
00:16:35,670 --> 00:16:33,600
when he talked about the scandal at the

480
00:16:36,470 --> 00:16:35,680
um you know for healthcare for veterans

481
00:16:38,470 --> 00:16:36,480
at the veterans

482
00:16:40,150 --> 00:16:38,480
administration those doctors were

483
00:16:42,629 --> 00:16:40,160
government employees

484
00:16:43,829 --> 00:16:42,639
operating by bureaucratic rules and the

485
00:16:46,870 --> 00:16:43,839
victims in that same

486
00:16:49,030 --> 00:16:46,880
situation were the veterans so

487
00:16:50,230 --> 00:16:49,040
so those when you have that kind of a

488
00:16:52,629 --> 00:16:50,240
situation where the people who are

489
00:16:53,829 --> 00:16:52,639
giving the treatment can't be fired

490
00:16:55,749 --> 00:16:53,839
and the people who are getting the

491
00:16:57,829 --> 00:16:55,759
treatment can't go anywhere else you

492
00:17:01,110 --> 00:16:57,839
have a predictable outcome just like

493
00:17:03,430 --> 00:17:01,120
you had at the va which trump corrected

494
00:17:05,590 --> 00:17:03,440
and just like you have today in england

495
00:17:09,350 --> 00:17:05,600
now when i was last in england

496
00:17:12,150 --> 00:17:09,360
they had they still had um free

497
00:17:12,710 --> 00:17:12,160
you know they had an open market in real

498
00:17:15,029 --> 00:17:12,720
doctors

499
00:17:16,150 --> 00:17:15,039
outside of that bureaucratic system so

500
00:17:19,029 --> 00:17:16,160
when i was there

501
00:17:20,549 --> 00:17:19,039
um i i sought treatment you know from uh

502
00:17:23,590 --> 00:17:20,559
from a doctor that i

503
00:17:25,189 --> 00:17:23,600
was privileged to hire and um and pay

504
00:17:27,429 --> 00:17:25,199
as opposed to somebody assigned to me at

505
00:17:30,710 --> 00:17:27,439
random

506
00:17:32,470 --> 00:17:30,720
um yeah so you're talking about complete

507
00:17:32,789 --> 00:17:32,480
government takeover of healthcare that's

508
00:17:36,070 --> 00:17:32,799
what

509
00:17:40,710 --> 00:17:36,080
have been some

510
00:17:43,990 --> 00:17:42,950
amendment in the bill of rights freedom

511
00:17:45,430 --> 00:17:44,000
of healthcare

512
00:17:47,029 --> 00:17:45,440
what about government state government

513
00:17:48,390 --> 00:17:47,039
stays out of health care just like it

514
00:17:52,310 --> 00:17:48,400
stays out of religion

515
00:17:53,750 --> 00:17:52,320
stays out of uh the press you know

516
00:17:56,710 --> 00:17:53,760
what would they say though about the

517
00:17:58,230 --> 00:17:56,720
government simply helping out the poor

518
00:17:59,669 --> 00:17:58,240
when it comes to health care so so the

519
00:18:00,070 --> 00:17:59,679
government is going to provide free

520
00:18:03,430 --> 00:18:00,080
health

521
00:18:06,070 --> 00:18:03,440
care and it did the poor uh

522
00:18:06,630 --> 00:18:06,080
it it uh there were there were there was

523
00:18:08,710 --> 00:18:06,640
you know

524
00:18:11,270 --> 00:18:08,720
nothing like the welfare state then but

525
00:18:13,350 --> 00:18:11,280
but the poor were always

526
00:18:14,390 --> 00:18:13,360
taken care of in colonial america and in

527
00:18:16,150 --> 00:18:14,400
the early days

528
00:18:17,430 --> 00:18:16,160
you know they had homes for these people

529
00:18:18,710 --> 00:18:17,440
and things like that

530
00:18:20,230 --> 00:18:18,720
but wasn't that private wasn't it

531
00:18:21,909 --> 00:18:20,240
private charity primarily that was

532
00:18:24,710 --> 00:18:21,919
providing for that

533
00:18:26,470 --> 00:18:24,720
um or is it actually the government you

534
00:18:28,870 --> 00:18:26,480
it's mostly private charity

535
00:18:29,510 --> 00:18:28,880
but but uh there were government poor

536
00:18:32,070 --> 00:18:29,520
houses

537
00:18:32,630 --> 00:18:32,080
and which were residences for the poor

538
00:18:35,029 --> 00:18:32,640
that were

539
00:18:35,750 --> 00:18:35,039
paid for by government of course it was

540
00:18:37,990 --> 00:18:35,760
it was

541
00:18:40,150 --> 00:18:38,000
in those days it varied very much from

542
00:18:43,190 --> 00:18:40,160
from state to state and city to city

543
00:18:45,350 --> 00:18:43,200
so i'm not an expert enough to tell you

544
00:18:46,870 --> 00:18:45,360
overall what the percentages were and

545
00:18:47,750 --> 00:18:46,880
probably nothing from the federal

546
00:18:50,070 --> 00:18:47,760
government

547
00:18:50,870 --> 00:18:50,080
it would all be local oh yeah oh

548
00:18:52,390 --> 00:18:50,880
definitely and

549
00:18:53,909 --> 00:18:52,400
the founders intended for the federal

550
00:18:55,830 --> 00:18:53,919
government to be concerned with our

551
00:18:56,630 --> 00:18:55,840
america's relations with states around

552
00:18:58,630 --> 00:18:56,640
the world

553
00:18:59,750 --> 00:18:58,640
and and economic relations among the

554
00:19:02,789 --> 00:18:59,760
american states

555
00:19:05,909 --> 00:19:02,799
so the original uh cabinet you know was

556
00:19:10,150 --> 00:19:05,919
was a uh war and

557
00:19:13,510 --> 00:19:10,160
and navy treasury and state that was it

558
00:19:14,870 --> 00:19:13,520
because the the idea was that the united

559
00:19:15,909 --> 00:19:14,880
states the states were to come together

560
00:19:19,110 --> 00:19:15,919
and unite

561
00:19:22,310 --> 00:19:19,120
and the federal government would deal

562
00:19:25,430 --> 00:19:22,320
collectively with the world and

563
00:19:25,909 --> 00:19:25,440
also coordinate the economic keep open

564
00:19:29,590 --> 00:19:25,919
the

565
00:19:32,070 --> 00:19:29,600
um

566
00:19:33,029 --> 00:19:32,080
so there really wasn't a uh the founders

567
00:19:35,190 --> 00:19:33,039
never dreamed of a

568
00:19:36,630 --> 00:19:35,200
department of health and human services

569
00:19:38,630 --> 00:19:36,640
or our

570
00:19:39,990 --> 00:19:38,640
housing and urban development or any of

571
00:19:44,549 --> 00:19:40,000
that kind of stuff and

572
00:19:47,190 --> 00:19:44,559
it was in individual individual freedom

573
00:19:48,070 --> 00:19:47,200
was their focus they called it the

574
00:19:50,549 --> 00:19:48,080
liberty of the

575
00:19:51,990 --> 00:19:50,559
of the individual and recognizing that

576
00:19:54,470 --> 00:19:52,000
everyone is free

577
00:19:55,909 --> 00:19:54,480
to choose their course in life make

578
00:19:59,029 --> 00:19:55,919
their own decisions

579
00:19:59,590 --> 00:19:59,039
right go out and live their life as they

580
00:20:01,350 --> 00:19:59,600
choose

581
00:20:03,350 --> 00:20:01,360
as a free individual free thinking

582
00:20:05,029 --> 00:20:03,360
individual so

583
00:20:07,190 --> 00:20:05,039
uh absolutely so you're in agreement

584
00:20:08,789 --> 00:20:07,200
with that okay so how would the founder

585
00:20:10,630 --> 00:20:08,799
what would the founders say about the

586
00:20:13,510 --> 00:20:10,640
way we're treating kovid

587
00:20:15,110 --> 00:20:13,520
and we are putting aside the example i

588
00:20:16,310 --> 00:20:15,120
gave but just speaking more generally

589
00:20:17,990 --> 00:20:16,320
about the idea that

590
00:20:20,710 --> 00:20:18,000
you know we're not being allowed to make

591
00:20:21,590 --> 00:20:20,720
our individual choice as to how much

592
00:20:22,950 --> 00:20:21,600
risk

593
00:20:24,789 --> 00:20:22,960
to put ourselves through i mean

594
00:20:27,350 --> 00:20:24,799
theoretically

595
00:20:29,350 --> 00:20:27,360
there could be no rules regarding covid

596
00:20:32,310 --> 00:20:29,360
and everyone makes their own decision

597
00:20:33,830 --> 00:20:32,320
as to whether to leave the house whether

598
00:20:35,350 --> 00:20:33,840
to wear a mask whether to go to a

599
00:20:36,149 --> 00:20:35,360
restaurant whether to go to a sporting

600
00:20:39,270 --> 00:20:36,159
event

601
00:20:39,750 --> 00:20:39,280
um and if you're afraid to do those

602
00:20:42,789 --> 00:20:39,760
things

603
00:20:44,549 --> 00:20:42,799
or you're in a high risk category you

604
00:20:45,830 --> 00:20:44,559
would choose to be much more cautious

605
00:20:48,390 --> 00:20:45,840
and perhaps stay home

606
00:20:50,390 --> 00:20:48,400
and people who are in low risk or don't

607
00:20:52,630 --> 00:20:50,400
mind taking the risk would would go out

608
00:20:53,750 --> 00:20:52,640
and everybody would individually decide

609
00:20:55,510 --> 00:20:53,760
what to do

610
00:20:57,110 --> 00:20:55,520
so that's the alternative to what we're

611
00:20:57,750 --> 00:20:57,120
doing what would the founders say about

612
00:20:59,590 --> 00:20:57,760
all this

613
00:21:00,870 --> 00:20:59,600
yeah but that was that would they would

614
00:21:02,070 --> 00:21:00,880
assume that you know that's they

615
00:21:03,350 --> 00:21:02,080
wouldn't even think about it i mean they

616
00:21:04,630 --> 00:21:03,360
did it in sweden by the way and it's

617
00:21:07,909 --> 00:21:04,640
worked out great

618
00:21:11,990 --> 00:21:07,919
this um you know i was recently in um

619
00:21:14,149 --> 00:21:12,000
hill country of texas for a week and um

620
00:21:16,149 --> 00:21:14,159
people there weren't wearing masks now

621
00:21:16,950 --> 00:21:16,159
the employees who had to wear masks were

622
00:21:19,190 --> 00:21:16,960
wearing them

623
00:21:19,990 --> 00:21:19,200
so my wife and i talked to the the

624
00:21:22,149 --> 00:21:20,000
texans about

625
00:21:23,669 --> 00:21:22,159
why they didn't wear masks and they said

626
00:21:26,070 --> 00:21:23,679
well you know this is uh

627
00:21:27,110 --> 00:21:26,080
that the word sheep was mentioned off

628
00:21:28,789 --> 00:21:27,120
and really

629
00:21:30,149 --> 00:21:28,799
everybody we talked about the same same

630
00:21:33,190 --> 00:21:30,159
thing this is

631
00:21:36,310 --> 00:21:33,200
this is theatrical and its meaning

632
00:21:38,549 --> 00:21:36,320
is conditioning people to um

633
00:21:41,110 --> 00:21:38,559
to be uh more and more accepting of

634
00:21:43,190 --> 00:21:41,120
being pushed around by the government

635
00:21:45,110 --> 00:21:43,200
and uh i think that's absolutely true

636
00:21:47,190 --> 00:21:45,120
there's no you know

637
00:21:48,310 --> 00:21:47,200
this is some kind of strange political

638
00:21:48,950 --> 00:21:48,320
thing it doesn't have any to do with

639
00:21:50,390 --> 00:21:48,960
health

640
00:21:52,390 --> 00:21:50,400
and that's why we should have our

641
00:21:55,110 --> 00:21:52,400
independent ability

642
00:21:55,669 --> 00:21:55,120
guaranteed by the uh by the bill of

643
00:21:57,190 --> 00:21:55,679
rights

644
00:21:59,270 --> 00:21:57,200
that would protect us from this kind of

645
00:22:00,870 --> 00:21:59,280
nonsense i mean dennis prager wrote

646
00:22:02,710 --> 00:22:00,880
i'm going on too long all right dennis

647
00:22:03,270 --> 00:22:02,720
frager wrote a beautiful thing and he

648
00:22:04,950 --> 00:22:03,280
said that

649
00:22:06,950 --> 00:22:04,960
okay maybe the two weeks made some sense

650
00:22:07,510 --> 00:22:06,960
but since then this is a crime we know

651
00:22:12,870 --> 00:22:07,520
this is

652
00:22:14,549 --> 00:22:12,880
going to happen with every virus

653
00:22:16,549 --> 00:22:14,559
eventually the whole the whole

654
00:22:18,630 --> 00:22:16,559
population of the world

655
00:22:19,830 --> 00:22:18,640
is going to um be exposed to it and

656
00:22:22,549 --> 00:22:19,840
adapt to it

657
00:22:23,270 --> 00:22:22,559
that's it's a fact it's it's just so

658
00:22:26,390 --> 00:22:23,280
stunning

659
00:22:28,149 --> 00:22:26,400
how few people articulate this though

660
00:22:31,270 --> 00:22:28,159
this idea that i just

661
00:22:32,870 --> 00:22:31,280
stated which is i'm not claiming uh

662
00:22:34,230 --> 00:22:32,880
credit for it obviously but just the

663
00:22:35,510 --> 00:22:34,240
idea that everybody makes their own

664
00:22:38,710 --> 00:22:35,520
individual decision

665
00:22:41,590 --> 00:22:38,720
as to how to act in light of kovid

666
00:22:42,950 --> 00:22:41,600
but it's not here but i'm not hearing

667
00:22:44,789 --> 00:22:42,960
anyone

668
00:22:45,990 --> 00:22:44,799
for the most part you just said prager i

669
00:22:47,510 --> 00:22:46,000
mean obviously some conservative

670
00:22:49,750 --> 00:22:47,520
commentators and so on

671
00:22:51,190 --> 00:22:49,760
but as far as politicians in office

672
00:22:53,590 --> 00:22:51,200
politicians

673
00:22:55,270 --> 00:22:53,600
you don't hear anybody advocating for

674
00:22:58,149 --> 00:22:55,280
this you don't hear trump

675
00:22:59,190 --> 00:22:58,159
trump's you know really bad in my view

676
00:23:01,350 --> 00:22:59,200
even though the left

677
00:23:02,310 --> 00:23:01,360
criticizes him for not doing enough i

678
00:23:04,710 --> 00:23:02,320
think he deserves

679
00:23:05,990 --> 00:23:04,720
more critique from the right for doing

680
00:23:08,310 --> 00:23:06,000
too much

681
00:23:09,669 --> 00:23:08,320
you've got desantis in florida at least

682
00:23:11,029 --> 00:23:09,679
he seems to be

683
00:23:13,430 --> 00:23:11,039
kind of getting what you and i are

684
00:23:17,190 --> 00:23:13,440
saying which is this is individual

685
00:23:19,110 --> 00:23:17,200
choice but gosh besides desantis i just

686
00:23:22,310 --> 00:23:19,120
don't see anyone

687
00:23:23,909 --> 00:23:22,320
it's a frightening thing uh the the way

688
00:23:24,630 --> 00:23:23,919
the people the american people have

689
00:23:26,070 --> 00:23:24,640
accepted

690
00:23:27,750 --> 00:23:26,080
having their rights taken away i mean

691
00:23:28,950 --> 00:23:27,760
people are having are being subject to

692
00:23:30,710 --> 00:23:28,960
house arrest for

693
00:23:33,830 --> 00:23:30,720
just for living in america i mean this

694
00:23:36,310 --> 00:23:33,840
is not this is this is crazy we've had

695
00:23:37,110 --> 00:23:36,320
it may be that the hong kong flu was

696
00:23:40,149 --> 00:23:37,120
more deadly

697
00:23:41,909 --> 00:23:40,159
well not that long ago we made we

698
00:23:43,750 --> 00:23:41,919
didn't do any of these things we left it

699
00:23:46,710 --> 00:23:43,760
in this way you described which is

700
00:23:48,390 --> 00:23:46,720
okay take you know use your head make

701
00:23:50,870 --> 00:23:48,400
your own decisions

702
00:23:52,549 --> 00:23:50,880
consider your health consider how

703
00:23:54,070 --> 00:23:52,559
confident you are in your immune system

704
00:23:55,430 --> 00:23:54,080
you know whatever and go about your

705
00:23:56,789 --> 00:23:55,440
business that's the way we've always

706
00:24:01,110 --> 00:23:56,799
handled these things

707
00:24:03,430 --> 00:24:01,120
one you know one one one you know sars

708
00:24:04,870 --> 00:24:03,440
you know uh swine flu all of them have

709
00:24:08,310 --> 00:24:04,880
been handled the same way this is

710
00:24:10,789 --> 00:24:08,320
completely new and completely crazy

711
00:24:12,870 --> 00:24:10,799
yeah i don't think in the history of our

712
00:24:15,269 --> 00:24:12,880
country we've ever quarantined

713
00:24:16,149 --> 00:24:15,279
um healthy people it's never been done

714
00:24:17,510 --> 00:24:16,159
before

715
00:24:19,269 --> 00:24:17,520
i know a little bit about this and i've

716
00:24:22,630 --> 00:24:19,279
written quite a bit by the way about

717
00:24:25,510 --> 00:24:22,640
this mistake i just i just want to say

718
00:24:26,710 --> 00:24:25,520
kind of in trump's defense um that when

719
00:24:28,789 --> 00:24:26,720
i saw him

720
00:24:30,390 --> 00:24:28,799
come out there the very first time he

721
00:24:32,149 --> 00:24:30,400
felt she was by his side

722
00:24:34,549 --> 00:24:32,159
i turned to my wife said okay we're in

723
00:24:36,470 --> 00:24:34,559
trouble now because you may not remember

724
00:24:39,830 --> 00:24:36,480
but fauci was the person

725
00:24:41,990 --> 00:24:39,840
who had america believing

726
00:24:42,870 --> 00:24:42,000
that we were all at risk just from

727
00:24:45,669 --> 00:24:42,880
contact

728
00:24:47,590 --> 00:24:45,679
from getting aids so that was a so he

729
00:24:48,950 --> 00:24:47,600
went before the congress back in the 80s

730
00:24:50,549 --> 00:24:48,960
and said i need hundreds of millions of

731
00:24:52,149 --> 00:24:50,559
dollars to do research so we can find a

732
00:24:54,070 --> 00:24:52,159
vaccine

733
00:24:56,630 --> 00:24:54,080
because everybody's at risk of getting

734
00:24:58,630 --> 00:24:56,640
aids we have to have a vaccine or else

735
00:25:00,549 --> 00:24:58,640
populate we could have the population be

736
00:25:02,310 --> 00:25:00,559
devastated by aids well he got the

737
00:25:03,669 --> 00:25:02,320
hundreds of millions you still don't

738
00:25:07,430 --> 00:25:03,679
have a vaccine for it

739
00:25:10,149 --> 00:25:07,440
and he's and this time it was uh the

740
00:25:11,110 --> 00:25:10,159
reigns if you'll excuse the quote marks

741
00:25:14,149 --> 00:25:11,120
around that word

742
00:25:14,870 --> 00:25:14,159
of this of this response he's a guy who

743
00:25:18,470 --> 00:25:14,880
should have been

744
00:25:21,909 --> 00:25:18,480
uh when he testified before congress

745
00:25:23,750 --> 00:25:21,919
i knew better and i believed then that

746
00:25:25,590 --> 00:25:23,760
that he knew better that what he was

747
00:25:26,310 --> 00:25:25,600
saying wasn't true now it's possible he

748
00:25:29,110 --> 00:25:26,320
was

749
00:25:30,549 --> 00:25:29,120
mistaken but it seems very hard for me

750
00:25:31,830 --> 00:25:30,559
to believe it because the information

751
00:25:34,710 --> 00:25:31,840
that he was

752
00:25:35,430 --> 00:25:34,720
was wrong about aids is as clear as the

753
00:25:38,630 --> 00:25:35,440
information

754
00:25:42,230 --> 00:25:38,640
is that he was wrong about kobe

755
00:25:43,269 --> 00:25:42,240
i think he's run a you so whether he was

756
00:25:46,630 --> 00:25:43,279
mistaken

757
00:25:49,029 --> 00:25:46,640
or whether he was lying uh

758
00:25:50,630 --> 00:25:49,039
he got he's frightened to come the

759
00:25:53,110 --> 00:25:50,640
country was frightened

760
00:25:54,390 --> 00:25:53,120
congress was frightened into giving him

761
00:25:55,990 --> 00:25:54,400
you know really

762
00:25:58,310 --> 00:25:56,000
million tens i think hundreds of

763
00:25:59,750 --> 00:25:58,320
millions of dollars even

764
00:26:01,830 --> 00:25:59,760
yeah well there's this battle going on

765
00:26:03,029 --> 00:26:01,840
you know trump gets criticized that he

766
00:26:04,870 --> 00:26:03,039
doesn't you know trust

767
00:26:06,070 --> 00:26:04,880
the scientists we need to trust the

768
00:26:10,230 --> 00:26:06,080
scientists right

769
00:26:11,510 --> 00:26:10,240
well you know the the politicians job is

770
00:26:13,990 --> 00:26:11,520
to listen to

771
00:26:15,110 --> 00:26:14,000
all sides and yes listen to the

772
00:26:17,110 --> 00:26:15,120
scientists

773
00:26:18,230 --> 00:26:17,120
but you also have to take into account

774
00:26:19,830 --> 00:26:18,240
everything else

775
00:26:22,230 --> 00:26:19,840
so this whole idea that we should just

776
00:26:24,390 --> 00:26:22,240
lock step do what the scientists

777
00:26:25,669 --> 00:26:24,400
tell us to do my doctor tells me not to

778
00:26:27,669 --> 00:26:25,679
eat red meat

779
00:26:29,510 --> 00:26:27,679
but i make my own decision and i said no

780
00:26:31,909 --> 00:26:29,520
i eat red meat in moderation i make my

781
00:26:33,350 --> 00:26:31,919
own individual so i get the advice

782
00:26:35,909 --> 00:26:33,360
and then i decide what to do with that

783
00:26:39,590 --> 00:26:35,919
advice we've fallen into this trap

784
00:26:41,269 --> 00:26:39,600
where no the the scientists tell us

785
00:26:43,430 --> 00:26:41,279
what the doctors who are always very

786
00:26:46,230 --> 00:26:43,440
conservative inherently

787
00:26:47,750 --> 00:26:46,240
all about protecting your health we

788
00:26:49,990 --> 00:26:47,760
should be doing what they tell us

789
00:26:50,870 --> 00:26:50,000
to do but they're just looking at it

790
00:26:52,950 --> 00:26:50,880
from one's

791
00:26:54,870 --> 00:26:52,960
one vantage point it's fine what they're

792
00:26:56,870 --> 00:26:54,880
advising that's one vantage point

793
00:26:58,549 --> 00:26:56,880
just like they can advise us that going

794
00:26:59,430 --> 00:26:58,559
fast on the freeway is more likely to

795
00:27:01,350 --> 00:26:59,440
result in

796
00:27:03,269 --> 00:27:01,360
an accident and then we make the

797
00:27:04,630 --> 00:27:03,279
decision where to set the speed limit so

798
00:27:05,909 --> 00:27:04,640
that's what seems to be

799
00:27:07,990 --> 00:27:05,919
missing this equation and i would

800
00:27:11,110 --> 00:27:08,000
criticize trump for this that he's

801
00:27:13,190 --> 00:27:11,120
not showing that other side

802
00:27:14,230 --> 00:27:13,200
enough you know you've you've got the

803
00:27:16,549 --> 00:27:14,240
the the coveted

804
00:27:17,990 --> 00:27:16,559
uh task force but what happened to that

805
00:27:19,350 --> 00:27:18,000
economic task force that there was going

806
00:27:21,190 --> 00:27:19,360
to be i mean every time they come out

807
00:27:22,310 --> 00:27:21,200
with three with with reporting on how

808
00:27:24,789 --> 00:27:22,320
we're doing on covid

809
00:27:26,310 --> 00:27:24,799
i want a report side by side with that

810
00:27:29,029 --> 00:27:26,320
on how we're doing with the economy

811
00:27:31,110 --> 00:27:29,039
and how we're doing with the unintended

812
00:27:32,230 --> 00:27:31,120
consequences health consequences of the

813
00:27:35,350 --> 00:27:32,240
shutdown that should be

814
00:27:37,029 --> 00:27:35,360
on the very next slide yeah

815
00:27:38,549 --> 00:27:37,039
well you know the first thing i wrote on

816
00:27:40,470 --> 00:27:38,559
this back in back

817
00:27:41,750 --> 00:27:40,480
at the beginning i wrote three on our

818
00:27:42,950 --> 00:27:41,760
series of three articles and what i

819
00:27:45,190 --> 00:27:42,960
argued for is that

820
00:27:47,029 --> 00:27:45,200
you know fauci was shown to be uh on

821
00:27:49,190 --> 00:27:47,039
someone not to put your trust in

822
00:27:50,470 --> 00:27:49,200
and that and that besides to listen to

823
00:27:52,389 --> 00:27:50,480
one doctor

824
00:27:54,070 --> 00:27:52,399
is not what we do in our personal life

825
00:27:54,710 --> 00:27:54,080
uh you know you you seek a second

826
00:27:57,269 --> 00:27:54,720
opinion you

827
00:27:58,630 --> 00:27:57,279
seek a third opinion and so i argued

828
00:28:00,070 --> 00:27:58,640
that what we needed was a team b

829
00:28:02,389 --> 00:28:00,080
approach there's a lot of

830
00:28:04,950 --> 00:28:02,399
epidemiologists out there who said

831
00:28:05,909 --> 00:28:04,960
exactly what's happened you know at the

832
00:28:09,029 --> 00:28:05,919
time

833
00:28:10,070 --> 00:28:09,039
and i said that that uh you know that

834
00:28:13,110 --> 00:28:10,080
that cruise ship

835
00:28:14,230 --> 00:28:13,120
was a perfect test it tells us we don't

836
00:28:16,149 --> 00:28:14,240
know anything now

837
00:28:17,909 --> 00:28:16,159
that we didn't know from looking at how

838
00:28:19,190 --> 00:28:17,919
the people on that cruise ship did

839
00:28:21,350 --> 00:28:19,200
they were locked together they couldn't

840
00:28:25,110 --> 00:28:21,360
get off everybody was exposed

841
00:28:26,870 --> 00:28:25,120
only the old died some were sick

842
00:28:28,950 --> 00:28:26,880
sitting more we had a rough time some

843
00:28:30,789 --> 00:28:28,960
weren't so sick that's that that profile

844
00:28:32,389 --> 00:28:30,799
is the profile we have today

845
00:28:33,909 --> 00:28:32,399
so uh and there were plenty of

846
00:28:34,950 --> 00:28:33,919
epidemiologists pointing to that into

847
00:28:36,710 --> 00:28:34,960
other factors that said

848
00:28:37,830 --> 00:28:36,720
hey you know the right thing to do is

849
00:28:39,750 --> 00:28:37,840
what you were talking about the right

850
00:28:42,789 --> 00:28:39,760
thing is what sweden did do

851
00:28:43,269 --> 00:28:42,799
and um and we needed a team b at the

852
00:28:45,990 --> 00:28:43,279
beginning

853
00:28:47,669 --> 00:28:46,000
i i i actually tried to get some

854
00:28:49,990 --> 00:28:47,679
messages to trump about the today of the

855
00:28:55,669 --> 00:28:53,990
yeah and i mean it's just stunning how

856
00:28:57,269 --> 00:28:55,679
state governors have fallen in line for

857
00:29:00,549 --> 00:28:57,279
the most part and

858
00:29:01,830 --> 00:29:00,559
internationally that sweden is the only

859
00:29:04,549 --> 00:29:01,840
example

860
00:29:06,870 --> 00:29:04,559
and surprising it's surprising right who

861
00:29:10,070 --> 00:29:06,880
would have guessed sweden

862
00:29:11,430 --> 00:29:10,080
but but also you you also still don't

863
00:29:12,310 --> 00:29:11,440
hear that much about sweden i mean

864
00:29:14,789 --> 00:29:12,320
sweden no they've been

865
00:29:16,070 --> 00:29:14,799
it's talked about huh it's being

866
00:29:18,789 --> 00:29:16,080
suppressed and people still

867
00:29:20,310 --> 00:29:18,799
think that you know uh a long time new

868
00:29:22,230 --> 00:29:20,320
york times another said that the sweden

869
00:29:23,750 --> 00:29:22,240
experiment was a nightmare

870
00:29:25,350 --> 00:29:23,760
and uh so they're not they're not

871
00:29:26,950 --> 00:29:25,360
changing their story you know they're

872
00:29:27,750 --> 00:29:26,960
not coming out and telling how how well

873
00:29:29,269 --> 00:29:27,760
it worked

874
00:29:30,389 --> 00:29:29,279
yeah i mean i think the right thing to

875
00:29:31,750 --> 00:29:30,399
say about this is this doesn't have

876
00:29:35,190 --> 00:29:31,760
anything to do

877
00:29:37,269 --> 00:29:35,200
with the um with the with this flu

878
00:29:39,350 --> 00:29:37,279
we've never reacted to a flu like this

879
00:29:43,350 --> 00:29:39,360
before this is a worldwide

880
00:29:46,389 --> 00:29:43,360
impulse to tyrannizing over citizens

881
00:29:49,669 --> 00:29:46,399
it's amazing yeah and it's um

882
00:29:51,990 --> 00:29:49,679
reflective of the american population

883
00:29:52,710 --> 00:29:52,000
today that we have become so accepting

884
00:29:55,350 --> 00:29:52,720
of it

885
00:29:55,990 --> 00:29:55,360
the other barometer that i've used is

886
00:29:59,269 --> 00:29:56,000
the fact

887
00:30:02,630 --> 00:29:59,279
that bernie sanders a

888
00:30:05,990 --> 00:30:02,640
devout open socialist

889
00:30:07,990 --> 00:30:06,000
yeah got half of the votes from uh

890
00:30:10,230 --> 00:30:08,000
the primary voters uh in when he ran

891
00:30:12,389 --> 00:30:10,240
against clinton and also was

892
00:30:13,590 --> 00:30:12,399
almost you know he almost went one twice

893
00:30:17,269 --> 00:30:13,600
basically so

894
00:30:18,870 --> 00:30:17,279
that that that a large of a swath of

895
00:30:21,190 --> 00:30:18,880
americans

896
00:30:23,430 --> 00:30:21,200
believed that socialism is the right

897
00:30:26,470 --> 00:30:23,440
direction for america

898
00:30:28,549 --> 00:30:26,480
when that is the antithesis of what the

899
00:30:30,870 --> 00:30:28,559
founders

900
00:30:32,389 --> 00:30:30,880
would have ever thought of for this

901
00:30:34,310 --> 00:30:32,399
country maybe maybe you could just touch

902
00:30:36,230 --> 00:30:34,320
on that a little bit you know

903
00:30:37,430 --> 00:30:36,240
hey how did you know how did we get here

904
00:30:40,149 --> 00:30:37,440
and be

905
00:30:42,149 --> 00:30:40,159
kind of explaining why yes socialism is

906
00:30:43,269 --> 00:30:42,159
the opposite of what america was founded

907
00:30:51,350 --> 00:30:43,279
on

908
00:30:54,470 --> 00:30:51,360
years ago

909
00:30:57,269 --> 00:30:54,480
the progressives um

910
00:30:58,630 --> 00:30:57,279
came you know came to take over came to

911
00:31:01,190 --> 00:30:58,640
take over

912
00:31:03,110 --> 00:31:01,200
thought in america and so it got to the

913
00:31:06,389 --> 00:31:03,120
point you know you know bill ayers

914
00:31:09,110 --> 00:31:06,399
the terrorist you know he he he stopped

915
00:31:10,789 --> 00:31:09,120
um blowing up police stations became a

916
00:31:13,190 --> 00:31:10,799
professor of education

917
00:31:13,830 --> 00:31:13,200
he was very honored and uh and had a big

918
00:31:17,110 --> 00:31:13,840
role

919
00:31:19,950 --> 00:31:17,120
so what's been happening is educators

920
00:31:21,830 --> 00:31:19,960
have been being educated by people in

921
00:31:24,149 --> 00:31:21,840
anti-americanism

922
00:31:24,870 --> 00:31:24,159
and the anti-americans all say socialism

923
00:31:27,269 --> 00:31:24,880
is better

924
00:31:29,190 --> 00:31:27,279
so you're these kids out there who are

925
00:31:30,870 --> 00:31:29,200
knocking over statues of washington

926
00:31:33,269 --> 00:31:30,880
they learned in school of washington was

927
00:31:36,549 --> 00:31:33,279
a bad man slave owner

928
00:31:38,630 --> 00:31:36,559
and that communism socialism is better

929
00:31:40,070 --> 00:31:38,640
and so they're just carrying out what

930
00:31:42,389 --> 00:31:40,080
they were taught

931
00:31:44,070 --> 00:31:42,399
so it didn't come from nowhere if you'd

932
00:31:47,430 --> 00:31:44,080
be shocked if you

933
00:31:51,110 --> 00:31:47,440
you watched your alma mater

934
00:31:53,190 --> 00:31:51,120
where did you go to school uh uc irvine

935
00:31:54,389 --> 00:31:53,200
well i don't know how up you are and

936
00:31:55,990 --> 00:31:54,399
what's going on there but there's some

937
00:31:57,590 --> 00:31:56,000
things going on at uc irvine that would

938
00:31:59,029 --> 00:31:57,600
curl your hair if you don't know about

939
00:31:59,590 --> 00:31:59,039
it you might want to find out about it

940
00:32:02,710 --> 00:31:59,600
because

941
00:32:05,269 --> 00:32:02,720
what's happened is the the 60s

942
00:32:05,909 --> 00:32:05,279
radicals took over the universities and

943
00:32:08,149 --> 00:32:05,919
then

944
00:32:09,990 --> 00:32:08,159
and their uh those guys have retired to

945
00:32:12,070 --> 00:32:10,000
put even more radical people in

946
00:32:14,470 --> 00:32:12,080
and the things that are being taught in

947
00:32:16,070 --> 00:32:14,480
uc irvine partici has got some really

948
00:32:18,870 --> 00:32:16,080
horrifying things going on

949
00:32:21,029 --> 00:32:18,880
and that's where it came from so so

950
00:32:22,789 --> 00:32:21,039
americans

951
00:32:24,230 --> 00:32:22,799
the young people were victims of a

952
00:32:25,830 --> 00:32:24,240
miseducation

953
00:32:27,590 --> 00:32:25,840
and the americans who are frightened who

954
00:32:28,149 --> 00:32:27,600
are wearing these masks and i'm all into

955
00:32:30,950 --> 00:32:28,159
this

956
00:32:32,070 --> 00:32:30,960
they're the victims of a very deceitful

957
00:32:34,310 --> 00:32:32,080
press

958
00:32:35,590 --> 00:32:34,320
that's frightening though and so they're

959
00:32:39,190 --> 00:32:35,600
they're disoriented

960
00:32:40,870 --> 00:32:39,200
by fear american people are the

961
00:32:42,549 --> 00:32:40,880
the american people in general are right

962
00:32:44,230 --> 00:32:42,559
now disoriented by fear and the young

963
00:32:45,990 --> 00:32:44,240
people are disoriented by what they were

964
00:32:48,310 --> 00:32:46,000
taught in school

965
00:32:49,990 --> 00:32:48,320
so one of the mantras that's used to

966
00:32:52,149 --> 00:32:50,000
discredit the founders

967
00:32:53,029 --> 00:32:52,159
um in the founding documents is the fact

968
00:32:56,470 --> 00:32:53,039
that slavery

969
00:33:00,230 --> 00:32:56,480
existed at the time so and i mean i

970
00:33:01,509 --> 00:33:00,240
it's very very significant to justifying

971
00:33:05,430 --> 00:33:01,519
i think their movement

972
00:33:07,509 --> 00:33:05,440
to yes discredit so when the declaration

973
00:33:09,029 --> 00:33:07,519
of independence says that all men are

974
00:33:09,590 --> 00:33:09,039
created equal and you've explained that

975
00:33:13,350 --> 00:33:09,600
means

976
00:33:16,389 --> 00:33:13,360
everyone uh not just males but females

977
00:33:19,430 --> 00:33:16,399
um but you had slaves

978
00:33:22,549 --> 00:33:19,440
so what what is the explanation for

979
00:33:25,110 --> 00:33:22,559
for that well do you know about you know

980
00:33:28,310 --> 00:33:25,120
what about happened in haiti

981
00:33:29,430 --> 00:33:28,320
about the same time 1791

982
00:33:31,830 --> 00:33:29,440
what happened is that there was an

983
00:33:35,669 --> 00:33:31,840
uprising in haiti and and basically

984
00:33:37,029 --> 00:33:35,679
um it was a race war and in the end

985
00:33:39,269 --> 00:33:37,039
all of the white people were killed

986
00:33:39,590 --> 00:33:39,279
that's so 80 haitian had its revolution

987
00:33:41,669 --> 00:33:39,600
you know

988
00:33:42,870 --> 00:33:41,679
france had it are we had ours haiti had

989
00:33:43,669 --> 00:33:42,880
theirs and theirs turned out to be a

990
00:33:46,070 --> 00:33:43,679
race war

991
00:33:46,870 --> 00:33:46,080
and all what what what that haiti was a

992
00:33:49,830 --> 00:33:46,880
colony of

993
00:33:50,789 --> 00:33:49,840
what country france of france so they

994
00:33:53,190 --> 00:33:50,799
they cast off

995
00:33:54,389 --> 00:33:53,200
france and killed all the french killed

996
00:33:55,350 --> 00:33:54,399
yeah killed all the white people on the

997
00:33:57,830 --> 00:33:55,360
island yeah

998
00:33:59,750 --> 00:33:57,840
and so it was a terrifying thing at the

999
00:34:01,430 --> 00:33:59,760
end the guy who took over said

1000
00:34:03,269 --> 00:34:01,440
all the white people can come forward

1001
00:34:05,110 --> 00:34:03,279
and be uh you know be forgiven and they

1002
00:34:05,590 --> 00:34:05,120
all came forward and they killed all of

1003
00:34:08,950 --> 00:34:05,600
them

1004
00:34:11,030 --> 00:34:08,960
so so anyway so they so the the uh

1005
00:34:12,069 --> 00:34:11,040
it's a terrible thing to think about but

1006
00:34:13,750 --> 00:34:12,079
but there was a lot

1007
00:34:15,430 --> 00:34:13,760
there was a real fear of racial

1008
00:34:19,109 --> 00:34:15,440
animosity

1009
00:34:20,629 --> 00:34:19,119
of race war you know uh and so

1010
00:34:22,470 --> 00:34:20,639
for example jefferson said there's

1011
00:34:25,750 --> 00:34:22,480
nothing that justifies this

1012
00:34:27,270 --> 00:34:25,760
the the slaves have are

1013
00:34:29,589 --> 00:34:27,280
have un uh you know have unanimous

1014
00:34:31,349 --> 00:34:29,599
rights just as we do

1015
00:34:32,869 --> 00:34:31,359
how do we get out of this situation

1016
00:34:34,869 --> 00:34:32,879
that's been created

1017
00:34:37,589 --> 00:34:34,879
which was created on ideas about

1018
00:34:38,230 --> 00:34:37,599
property pre-existed the ideas of the

1019
00:34:39,990 --> 00:34:38,240
founders

1020
00:34:41,270 --> 00:34:40,000
so they inherited a situation where

1021
00:34:44,069 --> 00:34:41,280
these people were here

1022
00:34:44,790 --> 00:34:44,079
they didn't like it what to do let's

1023
00:34:47,829 --> 00:34:44,800
just

1024
00:34:49,030 --> 00:34:47,839
let's every bit to declare everybody's

1025
00:34:50,950 --> 00:34:49,040
free tomorrow

1026
00:34:53,430 --> 00:34:50,960
would have a lot of problems one of them

1027
00:34:54,710 --> 00:34:53,440
would be these people

1028
00:34:57,109 --> 00:34:54,720
might not be able to take care of

1029
00:34:58,630 --> 00:34:57,119
themselves the people who claim to own

1030
00:35:00,230 --> 00:34:58,640
them might not be willing to go along

1031
00:35:00,950 --> 00:35:00,240
with that i mean it was a terrible

1032
00:35:04,150 --> 00:35:00,960
problem and

1033
00:35:06,310 --> 00:35:04,160
what happened was the the

1034
00:35:08,550 --> 00:35:06,320
the american founders laid down the

1035
00:35:10,870 --> 00:35:08,560
marker all men are created equal

1036
00:35:12,390 --> 00:35:10,880
people are created equal that and that

1037
00:35:16,069 --> 00:35:12,400
and that marker was fulfilled

1038
00:35:16,950 --> 00:35:16,079
at great cost in america 350 000 million

1039
00:35:20,230 --> 00:35:16,960
lives

1040
00:35:23,589 --> 00:35:20,240
to free slave it's a

1041
00:35:26,790 --> 00:35:23,599
story of incredible noble

1042
00:35:29,829 --> 00:35:26,800
sacrifice so instead of a race war

1043
00:35:31,190 --> 00:35:29,839
we had a war between between the south

1044
00:35:32,630 --> 00:35:31,200
and the north that settled that we

1045
00:35:35,829 --> 00:35:32,640
weren't going to have slaves

1046
00:35:38,150 --> 00:35:35,839
and and and it cost an enorm

1047
00:35:38,950 --> 00:35:38,160
it was an incredible body blow to

1048
00:35:41,829 --> 00:35:38,960
america

1049
00:35:42,950 --> 00:35:41,839
and one of the no and what the noblest

1050
00:35:46,069 --> 00:35:42,960
war ever fought

1051
00:35:47,750 --> 00:35:46,079
one of them surely so it was what you're

1052
00:35:49,750 --> 00:35:47,760
saying is it was it's it's the f it's

1053
00:35:52,870 --> 00:35:49,760
those founding principles

1054
00:35:55,270 --> 00:35:52,880
yes permitted that permitted the end

1055
00:35:57,990 --> 00:35:55,280
to slavery that's what i was trying to

1056
00:36:01,109 --> 00:35:58,000
say yeah the founding principles

1057
00:36:03,349 --> 00:36:01,119
you know you know put the um you know it

1058
00:36:05,190 --> 00:36:03,359
put an end to slavery it just took time

1059
00:36:06,630 --> 00:36:05,200
like a lot of things do to work out once

1060
00:36:08,069 --> 00:36:06,640
that was once america was

1061
00:36:10,150 --> 00:36:08,079
you know america was the only country

1062
00:36:10,950 --> 00:36:10,160
ever founded on the idea that were

1063
00:36:12,390 --> 00:36:10,960
created equal

1064
00:36:15,030 --> 00:36:12,400
that country wasn't going to continue to

1065
00:36:17,670 --> 00:36:15,040
display the country it just took

1066
00:36:18,390 --> 00:36:17,680
a lot to get that worked out it was the

1067
00:36:20,710 --> 00:36:18,400
big problem

1068
00:36:22,069 --> 00:36:20,720
it was a real practical difficult

1069
00:36:23,030 --> 00:36:22,079
problem what do you do about this

1070
00:36:25,910 --> 00:36:23,040
problem

1071
00:36:26,870 --> 00:36:25,920
but it was it was resolved with the

1072
00:36:28,470 --> 00:36:26,880
civil war

1073
00:36:30,150 --> 00:36:28,480
and at that point you've got the

1074
00:36:32,310 --> 00:36:30,160
founding complete

1075
00:36:33,990 --> 00:36:32,320
you've got liberty you don't have

1076
00:36:36,310 --> 00:36:34,000
slavery

1077
00:36:38,230 --> 00:36:36,320
america lincoln's the last of the

1078
00:36:41,510 --> 00:36:38,240
founders

1079
00:36:42,390 --> 00:36:41,520
interesting well in today's cancel

1080
00:36:44,950 --> 00:36:42,400
culture

1081
00:36:46,470 --> 00:36:44,960
unless you were absolutely perfect

1082
00:36:47,589 --> 00:36:46,480
throughout your entire life in all

1083
00:36:50,390 --> 00:36:47,599
respects

1084
00:36:51,829 --> 00:36:50,400
you get canceled out so if you oh if you

1085
00:36:53,990 --> 00:36:51,839
owned a slave

1086
00:36:54,870 --> 00:36:54,000
even though slavery was legal at that

1087
00:36:57,829 --> 00:36:54,880
time

1088
00:36:58,790 --> 00:36:57,839
or if you didn't do you know spill your

1089
00:37:02,630 --> 00:36:58,800
blood

1090
00:37:03,190 --> 00:37:02,640
to free the slaves in 1776 or what have

1091
00:37:06,230 --> 00:37:03,200
you

1092
00:37:07,670 --> 00:37:06,240
to get

1093
00:37:09,750 --> 00:37:07,680
your comments on cancel culture and what

1094
00:37:10,310 --> 00:37:09,760
the founders would say i'd like to give

1095
00:37:12,310 --> 00:37:10,320
my

1096
00:37:14,069 --> 00:37:12,320
favorite thing to say about that is that

1097
00:37:17,589 --> 00:37:14,079
that barack obama

1098
00:37:21,030 --> 00:37:17,599
needs to be canceled also because

1099
00:37:23,349 --> 00:37:21,040
he opposed gay marriage

1100
00:37:24,390 --> 00:37:23,359
so you know so so he needs to be

1101
00:37:25,589 --> 00:37:24,400
canceled out also i don't know if

1102
00:37:29,109 --> 00:37:25,599
there's any statues of

1103
00:37:31,670 --> 00:37:29,119
obama or whatever but he was a homophobe

1104
00:37:32,790 --> 00:37:31,680
who ran for president and became

1105
00:37:36,150 --> 00:37:32,800
president

1106
00:37:36,790 --> 00:37:36,160
opposed to gay marriage well you know

1107
00:37:38,310 --> 00:37:36,800
he'll get

1108
00:37:40,069 --> 00:37:38,320
a pass because it was a wink wink

1109
00:37:42,310 --> 00:37:40,079
opposition wasn't it i mean

1110
00:37:43,190 --> 00:37:42,320
yeah nobody really took that that was to

1111
00:37:45,349 --> 00:37:43,200
get elected

1112
00:37:46,470 --> 00:37:45,359
you know not he showed me quite quite

1113
00:37:48,069 --> 00:37:46,480
clearly afterwards

1114
00:37:50,230 --> 00:37:48,079
yeah the whole idea of cancer culture

1115
00:37:52,550 --> 00:37:50,240
yeah the founders believed that we

1116
00:37:53,349 --> 00:37:52,560
were going to settle things by like

1117
00:37:56,550 --> 00:37:53,359
common sense

1118
00:37:59,109 --> 00:37:56,560
people are going to come together

1119
00:38:00,310 --> 00:37:59,119
with freedom of speech to say what they

1120
00:38:03,670 --> 00:38:00,320
believe

1121
00:38:04,550 --> 00:38:03,680
and in an open market of ideas and

1122
00:38:06,870 --> 00:38:04,560
beliefs

1123
00:38:08,069 --> 00:38:06,880
and that we were going to respecting

1124
00:38:10,950 --> 00:38:08,079
each other

1125
00:38:12,950 --> 00:38:10,960
come to conclusion about what's the best

1126
00:38:16,150 --> 00:38:12,960
that we can do in this circumstance

1127
00:38:17,109 --> 00:38:16,160
and uh that's not cancer culture

1128
00:38:19,510 --> 00:38:17,119
the founders wouldn't even have

1129
00:38:23,270 --> 00:38:19,520
understood the idea he couldn't have

1130
00:38:25,349 --> 00:38:23,280
made him understand well

1131
00:38:26,550 --> 00:38:25,359
the key idea is individual liberty yeah

1132
00:38:27,670 --> 00:38:26,560
well it's the height of political

1133
00:38:30,870 --> 00:38:27,680
correctness

1134
00:38:33,750 --> 00:38:30,880
and i think maybe to kind of as our last

1135
00:38:36,150 --> 00:38:33,760
thing to cover will help you give people

1136
00:38:38,310 --> 00:38:36,160
a little bit of an education because i

1137
00:38:39,670 --> 00:38:38,320
uh pulled out some quotes from uh i

1138
00:38:42,710 --> 00:38:39,680
think was an article that you

1139
00:38:44,630 --> 00:38:42,720
wrote about the issue of equality

1140
00:38:46,310 --> 00:38:44,640
and what it really meant to the founders

1141
00:38:48,150 --> 00:38:46,320
and how it's been perverted

1142
00:38:49,349 --> 00:38:48,160
so i think it'd be helpful to people i'm

1143
00:38:51,589 --> 00:38:49,359
going to read some of this

1144
00:38:53,270 --> 00:38:51,599
and then but then i'll stop for you for

1145
00:38:54,150 --> 00:38:53,280
you to comment but this part's a little

1146
00:38:55,829 --> 00:38:54,160
bit long but i think it's really

1147
00:38:58,390 --> 00:38:55,839
important for people to to hear

1148
00:38:59,670 --> 00:38:58,400
for for the founders our natural

1149
00:39:02,230 --> 00:38:59,680
equality

1150
00:39:02,950 --> 00:39:02,240
and our in unalienable rights define

1151
00:39:06,310 --> 00:39:02,960
each other

1152
00:39:08,550 --> 00:39:06,320
the golden coin of liberty has two sides

1153
00:39:09,589 --> 00:39:08,560
on one side is our natural equality on

1154
00:39:12,470 --> 00:39:09,599
the other side our

1155
00:39:14,470 --> 00:39:12,480
unalienable rights the enemies of

1156
00:39:16,950 --> 00:39:14,480
american liberty in academia

1157
00:39:18,550 --> 00:39:16,960
in the media have substituted a

1158
00:39:21,109 --> 00:39:18,560
counterfeit

1159
00:39:22,870 --> 00:39:21,119
now in wide circulation in our nation

1160
00:39:24,870 --> 00:39:22,880
this debased coin

1161
00:39:25,910 --> 00:39:24,880
of the political realm is easy to

1162
00:39:28,470 --> 00:39:25,920
recognize

1163
00:39:29,990 --> 00:39:28,480
on one side is the debased understanding

1164
00:39:31,910 --> 00:39:30,000
of equality

1165
00:39:33,829 --> 00:39:31,920
it claims to legitimize government

1166
00:39:37,030 --> 00:39:33,839
redistributing property

1167
00:39:38,069 --> 00:39:37,040
robbing peter to give to paul call it

1168
00:39:41,270 --> 00:39:38,079
the cp

1169
00:39:42,790 --> 00:39:41,280
side for confiscation of property so

1170
00:39:44,310 --> 00:39:42,800
i'll stop there and then we'll talk

1171
00:39:46,630 --> 00:39:44,320
about how they've perverted the other

1172
00:39:49,270 --> 00:39:46,640
side of the coin

1173
00:39:49,670 --> 00:39:49,280
um gosh it's just it's so well written

1174
00:39:51,190 --> 00:39:49,680
isn't it

1175
00:39:52,790 --> 00:39:51,200
it's so well written i just hardly know

1176
00:39:55,990 --> 00:39:52,800
what to say

1177
00:39:59,589 --> 00:39:56,000
yeah you know i think that the situation

1178
00:40:01,670 --> 00:39:59,599
is that americans are no longer

1179
00:40:02,630 --> 00:40:01,680
trained in the in the in the ideas of

1180
00:40:05,910 --> 00:40:02,640
the founder

1181
00:40:08,390 --> 00:40:05,920
they are no longer led by examining

1182
00:40:10,790 --> 00:40:08,400
its beauty and its wonder and its depth

1183
00:40:14,390 --> 00:40:10,800
to love the ideas of the founder

1184
00:40:16,870 --> 00:40:14,400
and so and now people

1185
00:40:18,470 --> 00:40:16,880
don't know what a real what the real

1186
00:40:19,349 --> 00:40:18,480
coin looks like and they accept a

1187
00:40:21,910 --> 00:40:19,359
counterfeit

1188
00:40:22,950 --> 00:40:21,920
thinking they're actually that they

1189
00:40:25,430 --> 00:40:22,960
actually are given the real

1190
00:40:27,270 --> 00:40:25,440
deal you've got to do two things you've

1191
00:40:29,030 --> 00:40:27,280
got to make a population

1192
00:40:31,750 --> 00:40:29,040
that's ignorant of what the what the

1193
00:40:34,309 --> 00:40:31,760
what the what that dollar looks like

1194
00:40:35,030 --> 00:40:34,319
and then you've you've got to make it so

1195
00:40:38,309 --> 00:40:35,040
that

1196
00:40:51,109 --> 00:40:38,319
the

1197
00:40:54,150 --> 00:40:51,119
that we're doing so damn well

1198
00:40:56,230 --> 00:40:54,160
that it's easy to for people to get

1199
00:40:58,870 --> 00:40:56,240
complacent and to comply

1200
00:41:00,950 --> 00:40:58,880
because you know am i going to go out as

1201
00:41:01,829 --> 00:41:00,960
upset as i am about these stupid coveted

1202
00:41:04,069 --> 00:41:01,839
rules

1203
00:41:04,870 --> 00:41:04,079
has my ass been out there marching

1204
00:41:07,349 --> 00:41:04,880
downtown los

1205
00:41:08,550 --> 00:41:07,359
angeles or whatever no because i got a

1206
00:41:09,589 --> 00:41:08,560
pretty nice house and i got my

1207
00:41:11,750 --> 00:41:09,599
television set

1208
00:41:12,870 --> 00:41:11,760
so you know and i got a car that i can

1209
00:41:16,150 --> 00:41:12,880
go get an airbnb

1210
00:41:19,270 --> 00:41:16,160
somewhere so you know i'm coping

1211
00:41:22,470 --> 00:41:19,280
so i comply right

1212
00:41:24,710 --> 00:41:22,480
it's that's all right that's the problem

1213
00:41:26,950 --> 00:41:24,720
is we've been too successful

1214
00:41:28,470 --> 00:41:26,960
well you know i think it's so we're so

1215
00:41:29,510 --> 00:41:28,480
wonderful that we've been so successful

1216
00:41:31,030 --> 00:41:29,520
and it's the free

1217
00:41:32,790 --> 00:41:31,040
it's the free uh it's the idea of

1218
00:41:34,230 --> 00:41:32,800
freedom brought to you know economic

1219
00:41:37,109 --> 00:41:34,240
activity that made us so

1220
00:41:38,309 --> 00:41:37,119
so successful you know i really think

1221
00:41:39,510 --> 00:41:38,319
that you've touched on the problem but i

1222
00:41:41,510 --> 00:41:39,520
want to put it just a little bit

1223
00:41:43,910 --> 00:41:41,520
differently there's two kinds of people

1224
00:41:45,670 --> 00:41:43,920
in america the people who are grateful

1225
00:41:47,349 --> 00:41:45,680
for all that it has given us and all it

1226
00:41:47,990 --> 00:41:47,359
does for us all the opportunity gives us

1227
00:41:50,790 --> 00:41:48,000
and they're the people

1228
00:41:52,630 --> 00:41:50,800
who manage to be ungrateful ingratitude

1229
00:41:55,270 --> 00:41:52,640
is the basis of socialism

1230
00:41:56,470 --> 00:41:55,280
this kind of revolutionary uh idea

1231
00:41:58,309 --> 00:41:56,480
that's going on you know that's

1232
00:42:00,069 --> 00:41:58,319
burning uh rioting in the streets and

1233
00:42:03,910 --> 00:42:00,079
knocking over statues and stuff

1234
00:42:06,230 --> 00:42:03,920
you know the the uh the

1235
00:42:07,030 --> 00:42:06,240
and it's and it's it's it's not easy i

1236
00:42:10,390 --> 00:42:07,040
think

1237
00:42:11,670 --> 00:42:10,400
to to uh to convince people who are so

1238
00:42:14,230 --> 00:42:11,680
privileged

1239
00:42:16,150 --> 00:42:14,240
to be mad it takes pretty good

1240
00:42:17,030 --> 00:42:16,160
propaganda to do that but in one of my

1241
00:42:19,510 --> 00:42:17,040
articles i wrote

1242
00:42:20,630 --> 00:42:19,520
you don't have to go back very far in

1243
00:42:23,750 --> 00:42:20,640
your own family

1244
00:42:25,430 --> 00:42:23,760
to find a time when the people and that

1245
00:42:28,069 --> 00:42:25,440
ancestor of yours would be simply

1246
00:42:30,950 --> 00:42:28,079
astonished by the liberty

1247
00:42:31,990 --> 00:42:30,960
and the affluence of our lives you know

1248
00:42:33,270 --> 00:42:32,000
uh

1249
00:42:35,589 --> 00:42:33,280
you don't have to go back very far at

1250
00:42:37,270 --> 00:42:35,599
all but it's and it's not just when you

1251
00:42:37,670 --> 00:42:37,280
use the term privileged you know my

1252
00:42:39,349 --> 00:42:37,680
point

1253
00:42:41,030 --> 00:42:39,359
is that you know i'm obviously not

1254
00:42:41,910 --> 00:42:41,040
talking about white privilege i'm just

1255
00:42:49,270 --> 00:42:41,920
talking about

1256
00:42:50,069 --> 00:42:49,280
98 of americans that are doing pretty

1257
00:42:52,470 --> 00:42:50,079
well we've got

1258
00:42:53,270 --> 00:42:52,480
a roof over our heads we have air

1259
00:42:55,430 --> 00:42:53,280
conditioning

1260
00:42:57,990 --> 00:42:55,440
we have electricity we have good

1261
00:43:01,030 --> 00:42:58,000
plumbing we have a plasma television set

1262
00:43:01,430 --> 00:43:01,040
on the wall i mean that's you know not

1263
00:43:04,790 --> 00:43:01,440
even

1264
00:43:07,430 --> 00:43:04,800
excuse the specific 98 97 99 whatever

1265
00:43:09,349 --> 00:43:07,440
it's the vast majority of americans

1266
00:43:10,710 --> 00:43:09,359
so when you have everyone doing that

1267
00:43:13,430 --> 00:43:10,720
well

1268
00:43:14,790 --> 00:43:13,440
and you take away liberties it's it's

1269
00:43:15,589 --> 00:43:14,800
not surprising that people aren't

1270
00:43:17,349 --> 00:43:15,599
fighting it

1271
00:43:18,870 --> 00:43:17,359
i guess it should not be surprising i i

1272
00:43:21,190 --> 00:43:18,880
like to act surprised and

1273
00:43:22,150 --> 00:43:21,200
complain that why be people being so

1274
00:43:24,829 --> 00:43:22,160
sheepish

1275
00:43:26,390 --> 00:43:24,839
um but you know there's only so much i'm

1276
00:43:29,270 --> 00:43:26,400
doing you know

1277
00:43:29,829 --> 00:43:29,280
arguably all of us should be doing more

1278
00:43:32,870 --> 00:43:29,839
well it's

1279
00:43:33,270 --> 00:43:32,880
i think it's true um you know i i think

1280
00:43:38,470 --> 00:43:33,280
that

1281
00:43:39,510 --> 00:43:38,480
have lost the historical story they

1282
00:43:42,790 --> 00:43:39,520
don't realize how

1283
00:43:44,790 --> 00:43:42,800
what a wonderful experiment america is

1284
00:43:46,069 --> 00:43:44,800
how much we created the prosperity

1285
00:43:48,550 --> 00:43:46,079
that's now

1286
00:43:49,750 --> 00:43:48,560
not like ours but worldwide that comes

1287
00:43:52,790 --> 00:43:49,760
from us too

1288
00:43:54,870 --> 00:43:52,800
you know people are thinking um

1289
00:43:56,550 --> 00:43:54,880
they're not thinking with any sense of

1290
00:43:59,270 --> 00:43:56,560
the depth of the history

1291
00:44:00,950 --> 00:43:59,280
you know um you know i was raised on i

1292
00:44:03,349 --> 00:44:00,960
was born and raised on a farm

1293
00:44:04,390 --> 00:44:03,359
where uh all the work was done by

1294
00:44:05,829 --> 00:44:04,400
animals there were no

1295
00:44:07,510 --> 00:44:05,839
machines and there was no electricity

1296
00:44:09,910 --> 00:44:07,520
either and um so

1297
00:44:10,550 --> 00:44:09,920
i know i mean i you know holes and

1298
00:44:12,870 --> 00:44:10,560
everything but

1299
00:44:13,990 --> 00:44:12,880
it wasn't that long ago and a lot of

1300
00:44:17,190 --> 00:44:14,000
americans live

1301
00:44:20,390 --> 00:44:17,200
like that and and uh we are

1302
00:44:22,230 --> 00:44:20,400
we're so fortunate all of us are so rich

1303
00:44:25,030 --> 00:44:22,240
even the people on welfare

1304
00:44:26,790 --> 00:44:25,040
have air conditioning which louis the

1305
00:44:30,069 --> 00:44:26,800
14th didn't have

1306
00:44:32,309 --> 00:44:30,079
they have you know um uh you know

1307
00:44:33,829 --> 00:44:32,319
access to health care that was undreamed

1308
00:44:35,670 --> 00:44:33,839
of the 14th day

1309
00:44:37,430 --> 00:44:35,680
by the way you know courtiers used to

1310
00:44:39,910 --> 00:44:37,440
try to get extra points with really by

1311
00:44:41,670 --> 00:44:39,920
catching uh you know ticks and um and

1312
00:44:44,069 --> 00:44:41,680
fleas and stuff off him and uh

1313
00:44:46,069 --> 00:44:44,079
and crushing them for him so those so

1314
00:44:48,950 --> 00:44:46,079
even louie the 14th lived in uh

1315
00:44:51,510 --> 00:44:48,960
you know in really by our standards in

1316
00:44:54,069 --> 00:44:51,520
many ways extreme privation

1317
00:44:54,710 --> 00:44:54,079
you know we got it we got pretty good

1318
00:44:56,230 --> 00:44:54,720
yeah

1319
00:44:58,150 --> 00:44:56,240
all right let's let's go back to the

1320
00:45:02,390 --> 00:44:58,160
coin and go to the other side

1321
00:45:03,910 --> 00:45:02,400
uh quoting from robert curry again

1322
00:45:05,750 --> 00:45:03,920
on the other side in place of

1323
00:45:07,270 --> 00:45:05,760
unalienable rights are the ever

1324
00:45:08,710 --> 00:45:07,280
expanding dictates of political

1325
00:45:11,109 --> 00:45:08,720
correctness

1326
00:45:12,950 --> 00:45:11,119
call it the pc side the founders

1327
00:45:14,950 --> 00:45:12,960
believed that we have a natural

1328
00:45:16,150 --> 00:45:14,960
and unalienable right to judge for

1329
00:45:18,550 --> 00:45:16,160
ourselves

1330
00:45:20,390 --> 00:45:18,560
today in america political correctness

1331
00:45:21,430 --> 00:45:20,400
increasingly determines which of our

1332
00:45:25,109 --> 00:45:21,440
thoughts and feelings

1333
00:45:26,950 --> 00:45:25,119
are forbidden and which are required

1334
00:45:28,710 --> 00:45:26,960
americans who accept this counterfeit

1335
00:45:30,150 --> 00:45:28,720
without protest do so because they have

1336
00:45:34,150 --> 00:45:30,160
forgotten or never knew

1337
00:45:37,589 --> 00:45:36,069
yeah i think political correctness is

1338
00:45:38,950 --> 00:45:37,599
you know the

1339
00:45:40,069 --> 00:45:38,960
america is the common sense nation and

1340
00:45:41,750 --> 00:45:40,079
the idea was we're going to rule

1341
00:45:43,750 --> 00:45:41,760
ourselves by common sense but political

1342
00:45:44,710 --> 00:45:43,760
correctness is the opposite of common

1343
00:45:47,430 --> 00:45:44,720
sense

1344
00:45:48,550 --> 00:45:47,440
you know um you know what you're saying

1345
00:45:50,630 --> 00:45:48,560
sir

1346
00:45:52,230 --> 00:45:50,640
is may be true but it's not politically

1347
00:45:53,670 --> 00:45:52,240
correct that's kind of the world we're

1348
00:45:55,349 --> 00:45:53,680
living in now where

1349
00:45:57,030 --> 00:45:55,359
political what is what's required by

1350
00:46:00,630 --> 00:45:57,040
political correctness

1351
00:46:03,030 --> 00:46:00,640
has replaced um your own ability

1352
00:46:04,390 --> 00:46:03,040
to uh try to understand for yourself and

1353
00:46:06,550 --> 00:46:04,400
even to express yourself

1354
00:46:08,069 --> 00:46:06,560
so more and more you're being required

1355
00:46:10,470 --> 00:46:08,079
to think a certain way

1356
00:46:11,990 --> 00:46:10,480
certainly to speak a certain way i mean

1357
00:46:14,150 --> 00:46:12,000
political correctness is you got to wear

1358
00:46:17,670 --> 00:46:14,160
that mask when you go outside

1359
00:46:21,510 --> 00:46:17,680
you know political correctness is is

1360
00:46:24,870 --> 00:46:21,520
is a social force of

1361
00:46:27,349 --> 00:46:24,880
tyrannizing over people's right

1362
00:46:28,069 --> 00:46:27,359
to unable right to think and judge for

1363
00:46:30,710 --> 00:46:28,079
themselves

1364
00:46:31,589 --> 00:46:30,720
founders are big on that it's basically

1365
00:46:35,990 --> 00:46:31,599
thought police

1366
00:46:39,190 --> 00:46:36,000
all that kind of stuff it's it's

1367
00:46:40,470 --> 00:46:39,200
it's you have to and and that's brought

1368
00:46:42,309 --> 00:46:40,480
back to the cancer culture if you don't

1369
00:46:44,550 --> 00:46:42,319
think a certain way there's

1370
00:46:46,550 --> 00:46:44,560
there's already severe consequences

1371
00:46:50,630 --> 00:46:46,560
people have lost their jobs

1372
00:46:53,190 --> 00:46:50,640
people have um have been ostracized

1373
00:46:54,230 --> 00:46:53,200
simply for not agreeing with what's

1374
00:46:56,950 --> 00:46:54,240
politically correct

1375
00:46:58,710 --> 00:46:56,960
even when what they were saying was

1376
00:47:00,630 --> 00:46:58,720
actually correct

1377
00:47:01,829 --> 00:47:00,640
and and last thing to touch on as far as

1378
00:47:03,510 --> 00:47:01,839
how the founders would feel about

1379
00:47:05,750 --> 00:47:03,520
the the identity politics where it's

1380
00:47:08,309 --> 00:47:05,760
just everything

1381
00:47:09,510 --> 00:47:08,319
is about what is the person's gender

1382
00:47:12,069 --> 00:47:09,520
what is the person's

1383
00:47:13,750 --> 00:47:12,079
race what is their sexual orientation

1384
00:47:17,510 --> 00:47:13,760
and lumping everybody in

1385
00:47:19,190 --> 00:47:17,520
based on these categories uh

1386
00:47:21,270 --> 00:47:19,200
what would they say about that

1387
00:47:23,750 --> 00:47:21,280
unthinkable i mean the whole idea was

1388
00:47:25,270 --> 00:47:23,760
we're going to have a country everybody

1389
00:47:28,150 --> 00:47:25,280
all human beings

1390
00:47:28,549 --> 00:47:28,160
had their had not recognized because we

1391
00:47:32,390 --> 00:47:28,559
found

1392
00:47:34,710 --> 00:47:32,400
system and a country around the idea

1393
00:47:35,510 --> 00:47:34,720
that was dedicated to the idea that we

1394
00:47:39,990 --> 00:47:35,520
have

1395
00:47:42,069 --> 00:47:40,000
rights

1396
00:47:43,109 --> 00:47:42,079
so the idea that would be divided up by

1397
00:47:45,030 --> 00:47:43,119
these kind of things

1398
00:47:46,549 --> 00:47:45,040
never occurred to them around the world

1399
00:47:47,990 --> 00:47:46,559
that's the way it was

1400
00:47:49,829 --> 00:47:48,000
you know there was the king and there

1401
00:47:51,190 --> 00:47:49,839
were the aristocrats and the aristocrats

1402
00:47:51,510 --> 00:47:51,200
at various levels you know dukes out

1403
00:47:55,270 --> 00:47:51,520
right

1404
00:47:57,430 --> 00:47:55,280
outran kang counts and so on and

1405
00:47:58,870 --> 00:47:57,440
where where what you were as you were

1406
00:48:00,710 --> 00:47:58,880
born

1407
00:48:02,870 --> 00:48:00,720
determined everything about your life

1408
00:48:04,230 --> 00:48:02,880
you know in america the idea was

1409
00:48:05,829 --> 00:48:04,240
still working towards it many ways but

1410
00:48:06,630 --> 00:48:05,839
the id was doing a pretty good job the

1411
00:48:10,230 --> 00:48:06,640
idea was

1412
00:48:12,150 --> 00:48:10,240
you individual are free and equal

1413
00:48:13,510 --> 00:48:12,160
and it should go out there and achieve

1414
00:48:15,829 --> 00:48:13,520
what you can have

1415
00:48:17,190 --> 00:48:15,839
the life that you choose for yourself

1416
00:48:20,790 --> 00:48:17,200
that's

1417
00:48:21,270 --> 00:48:20,800
an idea when people come here from

1418
00:48:22,870 --> 00:48:21,280
abroad

1419
00:48:24,790 --> 00:48:22,880
that's what they say i came here because

1420
00:48:26,790 --> 00:48:24,800
i want to create my own life

1421
00:48:27,910 --> 00:48:26,800
i don't want to live live the life that

1422
00:48:30,549 --> 00:48:27,920
was laid out for me

1423
00:48:31,589 --> 00:48:30,559
because of where i was born or who my

1424
00:48:34,470 --> 00:48:31,599
father was or

1425
00:48:36,390 --> 00:48:34,480
what town it was in or it's almost as if

1426
00:48:38,309 --> 00:48:36,400
it's it's recent immigrants these days

1427
00:48:39,670 --> 00:48:38,319
that we almost have to rely upon they're

1428
00:48:41,109 --> 00:48:39,680
they're the ones

1429
00:48:43,190 --> 00:48:41,119
that tend to have the genuine

1430
00:48:44,790 --> 00:48:43,200
appreciation for america

1431
00:48:46,549 --> 00:48:44,800
i know some you know these are not

1432
00:48:48,710 --> 00:48:46,559
illegal immigrants but they're

1433
00:48:50,230 --> 00:48:48,720
people who came here you know one of my

1434
00:48:52,390 --> 00:48:50,240
friends peter shroud

1435
00:48:54,150 --> 00:48:52,400
you know he was from hungary and his his

1436
00:48:55,990 --> 00:48:54,160
father said we're americans

1437
00:48:59,030 --> 00:48:56,000
we just happen to be born and hungry and

1438
00:49:01,589 --> 00:48:59,040
when we can we're going to america

1439
00:49:02,230 --> 00:49:01,599
and you know peter is a peter i loved

1440
00:49:03,190 --> 00:49:02,240
peter

1441
00:49:05,510 --> 00:49:03,200
one of the reasons i loved it was

1442
00:49:08,309 --> 00:49:05,520
because he loved america

1443
00:49:09,670 --> 00:49:08,319
and i did too yeah america is supposed

1444
00:49:12,150 --> 00:49:09,680
to be a concept but

1445
00:49:13,190 --> 00:49:12,160
people have forgotten the concept it's

1446
00:49:14,950 --> 00:49:13,200
been beaten out of them

1447
00:49:16,549 --> 00:49:14,960
when kids go to school that i know i say

1448
00:49:17,910 --> 00:49:16,559
look they're going to try to

1449
00:49:19,750 --> 00:49:17,920
beat the common sense out of you they're

1450
00:49:20,390 --> 00:49:19,760
going to try to teach them not to love

1451
00:49:35,230 --> 00:49:20,400
america
