sort of the conflicts in europe via it's boxes. okay. and certainly up in the balkans is a hedge. i'm on the same time, but option books, if they're all critics of the cost of those specialist chambers, quote that has been trying to bring these men to justice. if these hearings were in public, perhaps we would find out the whole truth and not may be unpalatable. for west the need is, as it may expose the fluid narratives that have been good to take it over and of a while we see a similar narrative now playing out regarding ukraine. all that is all saw sign new off for this uh laptop. i'll go too much for team joint forces with the us comedian to travel around the country, south hampton, our free spots. find out why, why the latch tech. so anyway, i will see the,

[000:00:00;00] the most people i know they laser 8 hour job and go home and relax, but i have about 3 or 4 more hours to go. so i'll just keep my clothes, change my clothes, the 1st job, go to the 2nd and it just keeps and keeps me from wanting to go home. what's the book about this town? oh, well it is free to shoot you a piece of mailbox. it was, it was um each oh yeah,

i have listened to some of that one with you. the the, you, you didn't have to maybe work is hard to get by. you did uh maybe spend more time with your loved ones while you still have them. margaret, this was my grandpa sister. she came off a horse in a curve and i found her on the bank. and over here is my grand great grandmother in great grandfather. here it's pays full. i really lock it up here. and then since my family's buried here, i just feel like i need to come up here and take care of the cemetery. the i disliked volunteer and do things for my community in try to make

a difference. the no one ever dies and says, and i wish i had a better job. they say i wish i had more time to spend with my family. i wish i could have explored some of my interest of music or art or church, or being a baseball coach. and so i just think we're at a moment where we're going to have machines and artificial intelligence produce a lot of things much more cheaply than we've ever seen before. we're going to have the potential for abundance. and when we have abundance, what we should do is give people the chance to live out their dreams, whatever they are. and that's the gift of this moment. if we don't turn it into the 100 is the, we already spend billions of dollars every year in this country to try to address poverty and economic insecurity. what do we get for that money? we get 50 percent of americans living paycheck to paycheck. 50 percent of americans

who have little or no savings in the banks to tie them over if they encounter a serious illness. 50 percent americans don't have that kind of savings to get them over that kind of an offense to come on in the house here. it is what it is, but i'm happy here much the rocks very much of over. i seriously thought i was the help this person ever. i also just feel like someone helped me and my spine with an x and my blood pressure was 380 over 260. and then they finally came in and decided that i had a order dissection. there's 3 lines to your a order which fees all your body with blood. and mine was ripping apart both by the force of the blood. which means i have to my blood pressure down very, very low. because if it gets too high,

it will rupture and use dead wherever you're at me when you're sick and you're trying to deal with a potentially fatal health issue. there's just so much stress, you know, uh on the financial end of it because you're getting these phone calls every day and, and every attorney i would call it was like a $11200.00 just to file bankruptcy. and i'm thinking, or you know, am i so broke? i can't afford to file for bankruptcy. you know, of my um, cardiovascular specialist or vendor bill, he wrote on my medical records, they said, look, this guy does not need to wait for his disability. he needs it now, and i still had to wait 15 months. you know, if it hadn't been for a family and some friends,

i don't know what i would have done. i really don't because i mean, i had no money. and, you know, i had to, i had to eat the look at someone like you can look at me right now. perhaps and, and maybe think of it perfectly healthy, but you don't know what's going on inside someone's by the way. we spend another 4 trillion dollars on spend other trillion dollars on tax cuts for wealthy people. do you see the effects of wealthy people spending those tax cuts that we give them? and so i know, or do you think that instead of economic activity always coming from the top and trickling down, that economic activity might actually be kind of thing, the bubbles up from the ground right with, if everybody has

a decent amount of economic security and has money to spend then economic activity will spiral upwards and community like so on the left in the army originally. and when i got out, i just didn't come back home. i just started work for 27 years. there isn't that i'm here back in, so i is because i have custody of my 2 granddaughters. they are 11 and 10 and it's a full time saying i live here and go home, start getting ready for them to get home from school. and then of course, we have to have suffer and if their homework get their bass and it's bad time and ready to start all over. they've been through a lot of debate as small as they are the same things the hard things and the child should, you know, drugs is really bad thing here in this whole small town and it has destroyed

many families. it sure has showed minded the world to smarter live so you can do whatever you as the owner at one of the half works hard, is that you do still a lot of us live in the basement. the impact i gave up, the best job i ever had in my life when i came back to take care of girls in that it was either that or let them go into states custody. and so i gave it all up, came back. how am i need to stay what you have today? you know? so the

other thing about where i spend my money and i would much rather do it here, and they have to drive 30 or 45 minutes to look for the nearest place. the blue because it's we really would like to see the town come alive again, like i said, we just need more people that are willing to invest in the community. if we give everybody money, you know, everybody has something to spend and they can spend it in, in each of these businesses. and that creates an upward spiral of economic activity that can revitalize the small town likes lajna. and if i can make the analogy to afford team, if you think about the game monopoly tray time to go around the board, the costco, get another $200.00. you didn't have that $2.00 we telling you,

pasco and monopoly. the game would be over and about 3 turns. see that $200.00 you get for passing. go with monopoly. that's universal, basic income. there no matter what, it's unconditional. you know it's come, you're getting it, whether you're winning or you lose. and if you're losing, it can give you a chance, so you can give you hope that maybe just maybe you can still pull this off the, our representatives in the legislatures congress. they know the investments pay off . right. they know that, for example, $1000000.00 investments in the fish hatchery, it fail, hollow pays off in multiples of that amount, every year in the tourism that it brings into this community. a lot of people actually travel here just to fish and buy them, come and do a lot of just to fish and say, i have to buy groceries here. have to buy fusion license. i have to buy gas, you know they, they certainly like to economy. you know, quite

a bit the right, this is why our representatives fight for money in washington to bring back to our communities because they know that these investments can have multiplier effects that bring in much more than the cost of those programs. it goes straight up the river to offer just got a crown infrastructure like roads and bridges and rail rings and business. basic income is like infrastructure spending for families, for the less families to, to pay for the infrastructure that they need, whether it's child care or whether it's housing, whether it's food closing, for a car that works for medical expenses. these are all infrastructure investments as

well. in the productive power of our people and our families in our communities filing the outcome of this money and got yeah, it was hard on. i can't imagine what you had to go through the. i hated to put her in that predicament. now we never had to put her in that project. me again if i can't help it. but like i said, as long as hard to get work, it's hard to pay, you know, if you can get the money to pay, it scares me that. and any day, or if i know if i don't buy it after so, and they won't come get in time. anyways, my family in are you working right now? i'm fine and uh, off it on working roof and it's hard on me course. i'm notice you guys knows my is the, it's hard on me because i retain fluid and stuff but i get it now and i,

when i have to because my kids, you know, we try to go to a doctors office. they wouldn't accept him because they don't have insurance. and then that goes all the way back to the money thing. no money. so because you don't got no money, we don't care about your health. we don't care what's going on with you. we're not going to tell you good by they've been, they've all turned him down and he didn't show it to you guys, but when he slid down the hill over there to, to catch land and now i heard him a got in with a $1000.00 a month so you and i mean it would gone on mine. okay them i couldn't imagine what it would do for my family. may my wife would live better? we wouldn't our years much is allowed is our valid and

the, and i mean i'm in town to tape ok. maybe there we go for the in

the same rom, just don't have to shape out the application and engagement trails. when so many find themselves will support, we choose to look for common ground the the attempted assassination of donald trump appears to flip this width of american politics from once the unified democrats in divided republicans. now the democrats are in disarray and trump rule supreme within the g o. p. the debates and the shooting changed

the the, the

the, we have 2 choices when we design programs for the poor and for people who are struggling. we can say you need to prove to me 1st that you're worthy of my health and then i'll help you. ready more we can treat people the way we treat our families. our children are neighbors and say, are going to help you 1st because we have face and you. we believe that you're going to do something good with that help. and that's what the basic income does. i'm just a couple of different things. the 1st, the physician is that there is a, a belief of inherent good as that was in people. there's a common belief in understanding that most people are basically good. i believe in

that the we say that you have to pull yourself up by your own bootstraps. that's a really classic southern. so you know, some people don't have bootstraps to pull up. some people don't have hands to coleman and some people don't have feet to put them on the to be a person. no matter what was specific is or what other felicia as they are or where they are not jesus, be good enough for us to the

what's interesting to me talking to people about basic income, especially people that would benefit from it is there often resistance to the idea and often the resistance takes the form of, you know, some other people will be lazy, some other people will use it for drugs. some other people misuse that in some way . some other people choose not to work to do you think it sounds like they fully be gabriel? money they wouldn't turn into uh dope a couch, potatoes of course. and while we are name. mm hm. but when i asked people, well what would you do? right? no one has ever said to me like, oh, i'll sit on the couch and buy some drugs and some alcohol and be lazy. but i look at it this way. if i'm growing a garden and my family go out there that with national guard and we work hard on that. so you're saying i should just open the door and let the neighbor down the road and it will work so hard. come in there and get part of my garden. how is that right? for us of this kind of resistance is almost a question of human nature. you know, how do people think about other people beyond their own family and friends?

do they trust them or do they not trust them? and i think that's, that's what we kind of have to talk about. and that's where actually pilots are very useful because we have a little bit of them. and we have actually quite a lot of empirical evidence saying, well actually most people act like you and your friends in your family, basic income pilots have been done all over the world. and generally, they do not find that people misuse the cash or stop working when they receive it in 2019 the mayor of stockton, california launched and 19 month program where they gave $500.00 a month, no strings attached to a $125.00 residents and made less than the cities annual median income. one of those recipients spent the money on surprise. groceries paying bills, you know, the same things you and your family would probably spend the money onto the

so we are within the last $30.00 days of the pilot project. in this 1st year, with the 20 women that we worked with, we have seen them do everything from pay off credit torrie debt. go back to school, get veterans claimant opportunities to like be or more engaged. parents re establish relationships. really just have an opportunity to show up and we have their full lives. and that's the beauty and the power can i use the for so maybe things stay and on top of paying the bills, even household things i'm saving to like take the baby to glaze so you know, they, you know, you can't really just really have the baby is close though, the daycare allow them to be somewhere where you can also not, not just be watched, but i also learned the me. i was able

to go ahead and enrolled him in daycare and then just focused on school. i saw him in las vegas, the military and medical building the coding. as i finish that semester, i made the dean's list, there was very exciting gama g b. i graduated in june. i was very excited about that and because it was really one of the things that he cannot hand or me from, you know, job basically when the job receiving a $1000.00 a month, even though it is a blessing, is not enough to sustain yourself or your family, so individuals took this for what it was an opportunity to get a leg up an opportunity to put in place a plan for themselves and their families. so no one quit working individuals went and got better career opportunities individually that the school individual paid off the individuals they will show up in their own lives. because valentine's day it was, his name's diety, you can make them with the keys. 6 much warm the baby was way to got married had

a we in and i get up there on this line. oh my god, i have to do something to 2 years ago the road i got a row and i looked up a he below table. he crying hard and ever worn saturday or it was excited. yeah. she saw or the she started the, the ripple trying i actually was on that and i was working on so far so. so they also let our relationship goals and to let you know, my mom got sick and you know, she needed a lot or she got the medicine inquiry. she here with the bill she on with the key. so now her being down, you know, just to return the favor just to be like mom, we're for you just like you was here for me. even though it is a guaranteed income pilot,

and there are other guaranteed income pilots currently being conducted. ours is the only one working with extremely low income families. so families who have various subsidies that they are dependent upon. and even though individuals had a decrease in benefits, they still say that they are glad that they received the cash because the cash allowed and the opportunity to do whatever they needed. it wasn't about share or subsidy dedicated to one particular bank. or most importantly, we do like a family model, a viola movie. we were able to celebrate a lot they, we holidays and just count actually being able to get together. i have a family that have so many things lined up. i'm actually going to be looking for a job in bees and ministration. i met some great people with bright things to say let me know when cost

a breeze to come talk to them. so i'm very excited about the people you know, and looking out for you just see that you're trying to do something, you know, change your life, easy generations, then they are waiting like come on and we had to use that i think is gonna happen when you know, i believe that we spent a lot of time thinking about what happens when something ins and to me that's a clarify and i'm not trusting individuals that if i am going to say that i trust you enough to give you money and know that you are going to do what you and your family need. i have to say that i trust you enough to have put a plan in place for when is money and stuff. so i believe that individuals are going to continue to do whatever they need to do to take care of themselves and their on

the end, the end people want to be productive. they want to have a better tomorrow than they have today. and if you give people a stable, durable source of income that they can count on, then most people will invest that money in ways that are best for them. as we live in a moment of change, it's going to happen. driverless cars are going to arrive and artificial intelligence is going to improve progress though, in terms of people and whether they're better or worse off. that is optional. this is a moment to leave. this is a moment for debate because the future of our families and our children is realistic. cash to me it's freedom and it is bringing. it gives you options that without and you do not have cash allows them the freedom to actually make the decisions to determine what it is that they need for themselves. you know, right now i'm an academic, let's say for some reason academia doesn't work out. and i need to take

a couple of years to get some training or to switch careers. or let's say i have a parent that really needs my help. i can instantly fall back on that universal basic income and not pitch. so it's something i really want for, you know, the disadvantaged people in this country, but it's something i also really want for myself. and i think that's how you create really powerful political movements. take this opportunity and see that we do not have unlimited time. and so my ask for you all to night is for you to take this new vision of the economy, this trickle up economy, this human centered economy, this vision and make it yours. i don't, no doubt picked up on it or not, but right now, things are less than ideal for a huge number of people in this country. people are being let go from jobs that are never going to come back rakitin. medical bills are never going to be able to pay, you know, by the way,

a global freaking contagion level. pandemic. hard to feel very good about say, trend. don't you think you'd feel a little better if you had slightly more assurance that you and your family were going to be ok? we really believe in the land of the free lunch act, like it's a slip that giant economic boot off of people's next, let's give everyone a piece of the get all american pass so that no one has to start from nothing that's freedom that you be. i think about

the the attempted assassination of donald trump appears to flip the splits of american

politics from but once the unified democrats end divided republicans. now the democrats are in disarray and trump rule supreme within the g o. p. the debate and the shooting changed everything, the ukraine's a re branded as all the time in the past to europe, off to one of the neo nazis units members of uses with a hill plot points past the outspend desktop memorial. also had the sound pro war pollutions of the european union, the unhappy what we had been doing because they don't one piece. the hon. gary in foreign, minnesota in fis, on charging pools towards peace on the sidelines. at the latest we rushed to lead you and security council meeting. not says budapest spaces the is a raft, but trying to push paste, told. in the past 10 days and the ways of keys the gate schools including 6
