businessman who fought back after this happened. >> a tornado cut a path of destruction. t-72, what happened to it? that is our show tonight. hn: the dictionary says 82 means firmness of character and the indomitable spirit some people think of cowboys like characters played by john wayne and clint eastwood people think of patrick dorinson. who is he? a radio host who calls himself the cowboys a libertarian argues the bloated government is killing off grit in america. >> we have become a dependent state and we decided to trade freedom for security to saylet the government handle these things let's be dependent on the government. john: you say your parents are very different.

>> absolutely they said if you want to go be something in your life you have to get out there and start working when you are ung, start doing things and demonstrate the ability to stand by your own 2 feet the last few years we have been teaching self-esteem instead of self-reliance. john: they like them so. >> that is great we build an ice nation of narcissist. life has risk you cannot litigate or legislate your way out of every problem. something just happened. john: the one thing is we baby boomers embrace was the welfare state. i believed this would end poverty and it is a good example of the dependency talk because if you look at a graph of what happened after the war on poverty began it is true poverty dropped the first five years 9 million people were helped the look that since then the line goes up and down and the top people to be

dependent and progress stopped and looked at the five years before the war on poverty and le were lifting themselves out of poverty on their own without government. government helped a few people then stop the progress. >> look what else. katrina. hurricane katrina was predicted now we have the ability to know that hurricane is coming your way and will hit new orleans like a powerful powerful te. so people sat there and waited for the government to come to bring the bus to take them to safety. that you have 10 da warning you start walking. you pack up your gear in and say i have got to get out of here because i have to save myself. no. people sat there and said wait until the government picks me up then people were sitting in the superdome. american people have become more of urbanized a.m. suburbanized and they want

more things than the politicians are more than happy to say we will give you this a.m. best can that this tendency in this dependency and this service and people say keep doing that. give us more goodies. once congress can find out a can bribe the public with its own money that is the end of the republic. congress figured out how to do with every local official they take your money and then it is tha and saying stand by your own 2 feet. john: it offers extended unemployment benefits. we can learn from denmark they once gave laid-off workers five years of unemployment benefits when did th finally find work? surprise. after exactly five years so denmark cut benefits that for years then they found jobs in four years now it is limited at two years but at

least they are learning people in this country say know we should go the other way. these people are suffering and give more befit. >> social governments in europe are running away from the welfare state and away from the fire butmericans are dousing themselves as counsel -- gasoline that will burn do the whole structure because we cannot afford these things but it is about the character of the nation. if we ep putting the government do things for us what is this a about us as a people? john: i suppose you may say it is ea to talk about the harm done by the welfare state as we are privileged whit guys but what about poor people are minorities? let's talk to somebody who is not white and grew up far from privilege. deneen borelli author of "backlash" claiming the left is driving americans to the government's plantation? >> the government economic

plantation because there are way too many people who feel they are entitled to government support humphrey every day one and needed to look at the number of people who are obtaining government assistance we also trading that for votes. >> the number keeps going up and the numbers are deplorable money put that in perspective the state of california there are more people on food stamps. john: but the jobs are out there. may not be the job that you won but in my book "backlash" i have worked number of jobs and i was not the ly crazy look at new jersey department of motor vehicles of manual typewriters and without a typewriter it was an experience but not the ideal situation but i did it.

john: the jobs are out there last year i went to the welfare office not far from here and ask people why are you getting handouts? >> no jobs? didn't really? i asked my team to check that out. within a few blocks they found lots of businesses that want to hire people. of 79 businesses that we asked him less than two hours, 40 said they would hire, 24 said they'd take people with no experience. the owner of this restaurant said he would hire lots of people. >> dominated come with no experience? >> i would probably take nine people and train them. john: at the welfare office people would toll on -- tell us there are no jobs. >> the net this woman who says she works for a human-resources there are no jobs around? >> i don't think so or there wouldn't be a line.

john: arc some of them are not trying? some of them are not you can tell those that a. you think you encourage people to be dependent? >> yes we do. john: what should we do? >> i don't know. stop giving away the money then they get a job. john: handiwk for the government. >> that's right. %-someone in the government says that. >> the jobs are out there. you need to take responsibility and not rely on the governnt. it has extended unemployment benefits that after that people go on disability i don't understand that. but we are broke. john: using the racial part you use the government plantation that it implies slavery that is very different. >> i call it economic slavy and when you look at the people who are relying on government for the everydaynes antony's those resources are limited and

with those come strictions if you are gainfully employed you can do what everyone would resources and the sky's the limit is you can make as much money as you want when i left home i did not and no where job i would take but i took aob where i knew i could learn something and gain from it and indians from there. john: you say growing up you heard messages from civil rights -- rights leaders and said don't do that? >> yes. i call them the black liberal establishment community activist the naacp that message but it is the same message. john: that you cannot me it and blame others. john: charles murray said in the book losing ground we tried to provide more for the pork and produced more pork instead inadvertently we build a trap. >> absolutely.

to the people have babies will pay you to have children we would give you day and welfare for not working and housing that u don't have to pay for if you have no skin and the game if you don't have to fill out a lease with the deposit and pay rent andhen what is the difference? you have no skin in the game. she said plantation? i think we have a vertical indian reservation where we warehouse human beings. john: talk about the children you say you punish the children they are innocent. >> of course, but at some point* you have to break the cycle of poverty if you keep making more pork people because we are now for five generations into people who have nothing else than government support. >> joint -- judge judy overstocks about the case but then she says had to make a living?

i get aid and they know government programs like the back of their hand but that is all they now. john: on amazon we looked at your page 45 there are some nasty comments about you. >> you are despicable. it is easy and profitable to pander to the republicans give them one more blackface to try to show that we are not racist >> there are two types of conservatives, the very rich and pools and deneen borelli falls in to the latter category. >> i am an american i don't care what the comments are that people write about. the reason they're right those comments is to try to stifle me and shut me doown because my message is resonating. im about liberty. john: it is resonating? ic the welfare state growing >> people are coming out of the closet called black conservatives coming announcing ty apprecte

what i do and what i say but they are afraid to be targeted and criticized by friends andfamily when they agree with what i say. john: when you say we made progress and i am skeptical i think of snapped which is the new name for welfare i guess less of a stigma. >> the gb stupid name for atrocious program. [laughter] but they host the go themed parties for elderly to encourage them to get food stamps. >> whistle is how embarrassing our government is running ads for these parties to get more people to rely on the government and obama said he wants to fundamentally transform america to be more dependent on the government is part of that plan and it is the wrong plan for our country. john: you see people begging

in cities like this and when i was a kid i would feel sorry for them and give them many. then we did test to find almost all of them had homes and were skimming people annd the social service agencies say don't give to these people. by a chided for one hour and made $11. more than minimum wage by giving money to then you are teaching them to be dependent to y you don't need to work. >> we're teaching people to eat fish but not how to fish it is the old cliche it is true the more you make people dependent they will not try to fd themselves. >> we have to judge the program of milton friedman number their intention but their effectiveness. >> we have to many that are ineffective and you cannot get ready -- rid of any of them. thank you. coming up we want to protect our children but to as we

waiting room and was reading the newspaper with the magnifyi glass and of the '03 year-old came over his she said the words get bigggr and the mother said get away from her you have to there and mediately not to trust strangers so that women just made her child into a social crippled with things everybody is equall dangerous and every situation is bad in every stranger is a menace and i say the opposite that the more kids you get out and interact dimaria let them go and become human beings then they are safer. john: you brought this trophy? >> my son strophe but it as the of the teenage bowling league. john: eighth place out of nine because i think the

camp really thought we cannot send a kid come without a trophy because they cannot take it and that is another vote of non confidence. john: did your child survive? [laughter] >> he will not survive seeing it on tv but he was okay until now because he had understand he stinks a bowling talk about grit it is realizing you can be bad as something you can fall down and scrape your knee and is not the end of the world. grit is the ability to say that stinks' let me go forward. john: you once taped the t series. >> i cannot ride a bike my mom doesn't want me to fall and her myself. >> my momhinks that will cuty fingers off if i use a knife. i will teach and how to use a knife.

>> i cut cheese. >> what are you doing? >> i cut a tomato. john: the clips that i saw putting some grits into their lives made them and their parents happier. >> i c do everything i couldn't do. >> it makes me happy. john: the parents were shocked? >> all you have to do is take the children away from the overprotective family for a few hours in a few days in a row to derided by by, and use a knife then they are "built to succeed". they have the grit built into them and let them do things on their own they are happy and the parents are the pride and joy. john: thank you lenore skanayzy. do we need to protect college kids from this? oh the video shows him pushing and screang

and. are you ready colonel? john: today's some people make fun of western's but they often told the true story of the grit then made america possible. the pioneers left safe places to and travel enormous distances only to tough it out wilderness. the term called and dealing and used for nothing and the ranches and farms, of breaking side and plowing and suffering through cold winters grit is what it took to create civilization and requires delaying gratification wanting something bigger than yourself and in the case of america's pioneers, a start date and abusing children and wives and husbands to build communities. as john wayne character put

it we're building an asian. we have got to suffer. no great trail was never placed without hardship. that is life and grit is the stuff of life and greenness is achieved only after repeated failure. van gogh was unable to sell paintings he only sold one during his lifetime and he painted 900. cartoonist charles schulz had every cartoon he submitted rejected and the nets became one of the most successful cartoons of all time and thomas edison teachers told his mom he was too stupid to learn and was fired from his first two jobs for being nonproductive but he had therit to try and try again and got 1,000 u.s. patents including the electric railway and of course, the labeled that followed 1,000 unsuccessful attempts and a reporter asked him how does it feel to fail 1,000 times?

he said i didn't. the late fall was an invention with 1,000 steps. that is grit it is great we live in a wealthy country with the welfare state so big we worry abo for people getting fat but what makes most people happy is not comfort but earned success the struggle for the opposite of berndt success is learned helplessness and experiment when good things occurred that were not burned like nichols coming onslaut machines it did notncrease people's well-being but it produced helplessness and people gave up and became passive. that passivity is a threat to our future. everybody goes through pain and loss a struggle to overcome the about to happiness and prosperity and that is our show. thank you for watching.
