that is a great idea. in my experience, the best way to solve an argument between guys in boston, just add alcohol party on. righteous. here's glenn, now. [captioning made possible by fox news channel] captioned by the national captioning institute ---www.ncicap.org--- >> three, two, one, beck! glenn: hello and welcome to the glenn beck program. tonight, the healthcare bill that just won't ever go away. stop, please. wait until you see what we found hiding in this healthcare bill. also, how about a new behavior czar, to help you think more green, you know, i like the nice fluorescent light, yes, government, i like them. you won't believe this, either the whole world is upside-down, and the original plan for income tax. wait until you hear the promises they made at the beginning and where we are now. maybe you will think twice before you get into the new

programs they want. if you believe this country is great but it goes down a lot smoother with a cold one, come on, stand up. have a beer. it's beer picnic night, you know? come on, follow me! hello, america. we are less than an hour away from the first-ever presidential beer summit. oh, i'm so excited! the savior is going to be meeting with a couple of people in just a few minutes and the media is all a tick. i am guessing that someone who will remain nameless has a tingle running down their leg. yes, obama is meeting with sergeant james crowley and henry louis gates, jr., today, in just a few minutes at the white house. now, the post described them today as the distinguished

harvard professor and the cop who arrested him. well, it's a wonder wonderful teaching opportunity, i'm sure, and we're going to learn all kinds of lessons from this. i mean, i'm sure textbooks, all textbooks will be written about the amazing wounds that the savior can heal at a picnic table with just a little beer. wait a minute. hang on just a second. breaking news. yes, they're being moved now. they're moving the meeting to the rose garden. do we have a live shot? can we find out what kind of table it is? i know for days we have seen pictures of that beautiful picnic table. this is urgent stuff. i don't know what kind of lessons we're supposed to learn. maybe it's how not to racially profile. for years sergeant crowley taught classes on how not to racially profile. maybe he can teach the other two how to do that. then, the 911 calls prove the officers didn't even know the race of the possible suspect, so -- i'm not really what

we're supposed to learn here, but it's going to be a very important teaching moment, you know. maybe we're supposed to learn what kind of beer obama likes? is it guinness? is it milwaukee's best? is it zima? he looks like a zima man to me. i'm being told now, baking news, we can confirm president obama is a bud lite man, which is so amazing bud lite. do you know that's the best-selling beer in america? bud lite. he really is just like you. here's the one thing. the president is hoping you pay attention to the beer summit, which we're not going to anymore. he wants you to pay attention, because his poll numbers are tanking. remember, never waste a crisis when you're faced with a faltering domestic agenda and eroding overall support, time for healing over some beers, my friends! here is the bad news for obama.

only 23% believe healthcare costs will go down if his healthcare plan passes. 53% expect that healthcare prices will rise. 50% expect the quality of care to decline. the president's approval ratings, be according to gap lu, one of the shining examples, has dropped 8 points in the last month alone, so yes, the president is very happy to see the media diligently investigating, is it bud lite, i hope it is? what does that say about the man? perhaps support for the 1,000-plus pages of the healthcare bill is eroding because people are beginning to look into some of the things buried deep within, well, stuff like -- i hate to bring it in, it is so unimportant, section 140 of the house bill that reads and i quote "home visitation programs for families with young children and families expecting children, would

provide grants to states to establish home visitation programs to educate parents on child behavior and parenting skills." oh, well, gee, i hope it's a well-trained and competent staff, and oh, my gosh, here it is, in section 440, it's going to be a well trained and competent staff coming to your house. they're going to provide parents with knowledge with age-appropriate child development and cognitive language, social, emotional and motor domains modeling. i don't know if that is a modeling agency like -- you know, i don't know. coaching on parenting practices, skills to interact with their child, to enhance age-appropriate development. oh, that's going to be like christmas year-round! oh, but glenn, please, that's crazy talk. this is completely voluntary. yes, oh yes. sure it's going to stay that way, too. you know, it will be

voluntary, until we have too many little fat fatties in our grade school who are going to increase the cost of our healthcare. then, i don't want to come in your house, but i don't have a choice. gosh, i wouldn't want to send the fat police to the fat, fat, fatties and the fat, fat, fatty parents, because i have to, because you're hurting the collective, you know, the greater good. it's completely voluntary, are oh yeah. totally random. if you want it, you got it, unless there happens to be a specific problem area that we just need to target, like the one identified on page 840 of the bill. the state shall identify and prioritize serving communities that are in high need of such services. especially communities with a high proportion of low-income families or a high incidence of child maltreatment. oh, wow. this doesn't scare me at all. no!

that's just a crazy person, like winston smith, the mean character from "1984." i was just looking this up today. this is this one part where they're torturing him. they're like what is two plus two, and he's like, four, and they're like, no, it's five! anyway, he was crazy. on page 277, it says "he could for not fight against the party any longer, besides the party was in the right t must be so. how cot immortal collective brain be mistaken? by what external standard could you check its judgments. hannity was sta statistical. it was merely a question of learning to think as they thought. then the pencil felt thick in his fingers. he wrote down the thought that came to his head, freedom was slavery, and without pause he wrote beneath it, two and two makes five." you see, in the book, winston is no longer insane.

isn't that great? america, when did we become a nation? i mean, we used to believe in hard work and picking yourself up by the bootstraps and get the government out of my life. now we're a nation that wants government to control everything from our lightbulbs to now not in your bedroom, but in our homes teaching us how to parent our children. this bill must be stopped in any form. if there are any republicans supporting this thing, don't forget their names. if they don't get it now, and they don't get it in washington, they are reether out of their minds or they are part of the problem. either way, they are the ones who are rin sane, not those who still know and still will shout from the mountaintops two plus two equals four. here's the coanchor of abc's "20/20," john stossel. he has an update on the canada health system that will air

tomorrow night. is this another special? weren't you supposed to air a special on abc just two weeks ago? >> well, it's not even a special. it's just a segment, and yes, it got postponed. michael jackson died. glenn: oh, that's what it was, michael jackson died, because they're going to air tomorrow now. >> scheduled tomorrow. glenn: just wait until the whole thing passes and you can air it later and say here is some information you should have known. >> no. glenn: so, john, here is what i like to know from you -- we don't even know who is writing all of this stuff. we don't know what is in it. they made a compromise with the blue dog democrats. there is no paperwork on t we don't know what the compromise was. >> i assume we will know before they pass it. glenn: really? what gives you that thought? >> congressmen are saying i'm reading it right now, i'm

reading it. look, mommy, i read the bill. glenn: when i say don't let this pass in any form, i'm concerned that they're changing the structure of our country piece by piece, you know, and there's no good government small healthcare, big healthcare, is there? >> i don't think there's much good government. i think government is a necessary evil. the founders were brill brilliant talking about limited government. glenn: oh, please. necessary evil. go ahead and quote george washington some more. the system that i have seen around the world that everybody just loves, you have a piece in the segment tomorrow night, from, is it canada or where? >> some from canada, some from england. it's portrayed as paradise. they live longer. they spend less. it's great. they like their system, but when government takes charge, there are unintended consequences. glenn: ok. let's see this clip, please.

>> 1.7 million canadians say they can't get a family doctor. some towns like this one outside toronto hold a lottery. once a month the town clerk gets this box out of the closet. inside are names of everyone who wants a family doctor. she pulls out four slips and then calls the lucky winners. >> we will let you know that your name has been drawn for doctor care. >> others in town must wait. >>s that's just one example, both in canada and england. if you're going to give people free stuff, everybody wants it. some people can't get it, but of course, the politically connected, they get treated quickly. glenn: i find that hard to believe, john. no, you're just making that stuff up to scare people. john, did you find any evidence of real rationing, because i have heard this

several times that in england, if you're over a certain age, you're not going to get stuff. you're not going to get kidney dialysis if you're 65 or something like that. is any of that stuff true? >> sure. many of the drugs that are approved for patients in this country, the national health service won't pay for, but let's not kid ourselves. with or without obama care, we're going to have rationing in america. medicare is $30 trillion in the hole. it's a ponzi scheme. we can't afford to keep paying for what we promised to pay for the elderly. glenn: we're going to have rationed care. we have that coming, because medicare and medicaid, it can't survive. >> right. glenn: yet here in new york city, the number of people on medicare, i think has doubled, hadn't it, in the last tep years? >> politicians keep saying more people should be eligible, let's make the ponzi scheme bigger. glenn: are they just that stupid, john? >> maybe. maybe they just don't want to think about it when it comes to unfunded liabilities,

economics, the future. it's too complicated. glenn: i don't think so. you look at barack obama -- >> no, he's not stupid. glenn: he is not stupid at all. this man is an architect. i think he is an architect. i don't know what he is making but i do have a theory. oh, we don't have the -- where is the flag? i got to show this to you then later. i think we should replace all the stars. can you bring it out? >> yes. glenn: just bring it out real quick over here, because i think we should replace the stars. the stars used to represent the states. here is seiu. there is a new star. here is wal-mart, because they have caved now. g.e., got to love g.e. there you have it. g.m. citibank. acorn. >> everybody who gets a big chunk of money from the taxpayer. glenn: come on, what do these

matter anymore? we're designing something new. why don't we just put the new people that we're really representing in america, you know, one, two, three, four, five, six. ok. so we need a few more. it was original col you nies -- it was original colonies. what are the 13 original companies we will have as a nation? >> the 13 companies bailed out. >> we can add a.i.g. and seiu and g.e., who are big in designing the whole healthcare bill. i think they got a lot to win here. i can't find the things in the healthcare bill where the average american is a winner. i can find it for these guys, so i think that really we should stop calling it a flag and just start calling it the logo of our nation, and let's just be more honest. let's replace the stars with the companies. >> well, wal-mart is a good example to have up there.

there is a company that grew up by being better than everybody else. they got you goods faster and cheaper, and now they're con knifing with politicians, saying, oh, yeah, let's raise the minimum -- glenn: why? >> the founder died and now the bureaucrats are in charge and they can make more money by partnering with washington. glenn: i think they're afraid. >> that's, true, too. glenn: i think there are a lot of people in business afraid. >> if we don't cooperate, they will come down on us. glenn: yeah. let me show you an example of government-run healthcare in this country. we just sent one of our producers out to an indian reservation. one of the producers just returned from the loarl rural indian ressersvation in south dakota working on a special piece to show you. we're going to air it before healthcare passes, so you might try that, too. a special piece to show what we found, and here is a sample the of it.

>> last year i went in for my diabetes, and i had a cut, and it started off as a little cut, and i come in here and doctors and going, they put me on antibiotics each time i see the doctor. the infection got down to the bone, and it was too late, and i have to get my first toe amputated. that was back in '08, and not even a month later, i have to go back up there again for emergency surgery to get the rest of my toes amputated. >> so they ended up amputating all of your toes? >> yes. that was really, really stressful for me, because, you know, just like you have seen these doctors that i wasn't really diagnosed with the proper car at the first time. glenn: you want universal healthcare? we already have it.

we have been doing it a long time on our indian reservations. oh, we will show you the miracles that we have worked here. john stossel, the special segment is on tomorrow's "20/20." you're never going to come back, are you? >> you want to make a play about the indians but they have been more taken care of by the government and no group is in worse shape. glenn: oh, yeah, we have been taking care of the indians for quite some time. thanks, john. next, the government is about to conduct a huge scientific experiment, and oh, you're going to be a part of it. wait. that's next.

in 1977, an 8-year-old boy picked up the game of golf from his father. the odds of that same boy then making it to the u.s. and european pro-golf tours? 1 in 7 million.

the odds of the "big easy" winning the u.s. open once twice? 1 in 1.2 billion. the odds of him having a child diagnosed with autism?

glenn: had hey, for all you lab geeks out there, you'll be excited to know the government is gearing up to conduct one of the biggest scientific experiments, ever, and you get to be a part of it. it's called hr 3247, a bill proposed by congressman brian baird. it seeks to, and i quote, establish social and behavioral science research programs that would seek to identify and understand social and behavioral factors that influence energy consumption, to promote the utilization of the results of social and behavioral research to ill to

improve the disiep development and application of energy technologies policies and programs. " oh, this is fantastic. remember the book "1984"? sure. it is nothing like that, really. this is completely different. there will also be a director of social and behave quorl research. oh, man, i doubt if it will be anybody with crazy beliefs like every other czar. this one will be totally like you. they will study us and find ways to trick us into driving crappy hybrids, and i bet that's just the beginning. as "time" magazine summarized on ail pril 2, quote, president obama is still relying on behavioral science, but now his administration is trying to use it to transform the country." they didn't say this like it was a bad thing, either, because when you know what makes people tick, it's a lot easier to help them change. well, that doesn't sound creepy at all. it doesn't.

interestingly enough, it doesn't sound very american, either, but what is that now that we're in a global community? when has that ever stopped barack obama before? i mean, hey, is it for the betterment of the collective? you know what i'm saying? joining me is congressman dana roar bacher of california. congressman, you were one of the guys that was actually really fighting against this bill yesterday. what in crazy town, a.k.a. washington is going on? >> well, this exemplifies something that has been underneath the service to get someone as honest as brian baird and as sincere as he is explaining the real purpose behind his bill, which is behavior modification, so he wants to set up a behavior modification czar at the department of energy, you know. we republicans feel government is supposed to be controlled by the people, and obviously,

the frame of mind that comes from this bill is that the government should control the people. glenn: well, i'm just thinking, gosh, congressman, some might say this sounds like, oh, i don't know, propaganda. >> well, that is exactly what they intend, and i think the word was used in the debate. they believe that people just aren't doing the right things, because they're not making choices that these liberal leftists want them to make, and thus, there must be something wrong with them. let's psychoanalyze them. this is as arrogant as it comes, and i will tell you, and brian is a very nice guy. he is well intended, but you know what the people who put us on the road with all good intentions, they can put us on the road to you know where. glenn: i'm going to say t hell. >> thartd. glenn: or hell. one of the two. i will be out with this one. this is what

representative baird said. he said "we are not only going to unleash psychiatrists on you, but it's going to be anthropologists, economists an psychologists. this is vicious freedom grabbing mind control at its most pernicious and i think we should desperately hide in fear, because without a doubt, the martians an communists are right behind." he was mocking anyone who had a problem with a behavioral research czar and propaganda mocking. >> well, that's right. the trouble with this debate was -- and by the way, it was passed by party-line vote. all the democrats voted for t all the republicans voted against it, but you can't tell when they're being facetious or not. there are people making arguments up, that we have to tell our children whether or not to turn the lights on and off. our retort was you don't treat the american people like children. children shouldn't have all the rights and make independent decisions but adults in this country don't

be sent to psychiatrists if they disagree with some little liberal guru. glenn: thank you, congressman. keep up the good fight. now, listen, this is what obama said back in 2008. "he has called me a socialist so we can finally give tax relief to the middle class. i don't know what is next. by the end of the week, he will be accusing me of being a secret communist." that was barack obama. can we show the newsweek cover here? here he is calling me a socialist? do youer the newsweek cover "we're all socialists now"? oh, yeah, keep mocking because all of these things are crazy. i was thinking about this today, and instead of just getting another czar, why not get right to t let's think two steps ahead. i say forget about a social science czar. let's get right to the brainwashing. where is the hypnotist? there is our hypnotist. it's john se.

bone, the master. how are you? >> fab lutz. glenn: you are known to be able to put people to sleep lickety split? >> right. >> then you can give them things to do. i know you have worked with people here at fox to help them stop smoking. >> right. glenn: i would like to do something else. i would like you to put people to sleep and then give them the command to actually wake up and pay attention and then wake them up and they will forget we put them in a trance to wake up after we have told them to wake up. do you follow? >> i think so. glenn: got it? ok. how does this work? do you need, like a hypnotist thing, like a watch or a pendulum? >> no, i can just speak to people and get them to relax and talk to them about waking up and seeing this stuff. get comfortable, sit back and relax. take a deep and soothing wonderful breath, and visualize golden white life filling your lungs drifting,

tonight's hot list, common sense solutions to the stories stories -- the dumbest show on television possibly ever -- these are the stories where the mainstream media just isn't doing their job. i know that comes as a surprise to you. there has been a miracle in oregon. yes, the associated press reports that oregon is spending $176 million to supplement the federal stimulus plan to create jobs in their state. miracle of miracles, praise obama! now, state democrats are taking credit for creating over 3,000 new jobs in the program's first three months. that is fantastic. ok. there is one little -- there is a hitch. according to the associated press, those hate mongers, they just smear everybody, those jobs only are going to last an average of 35 hours or less than a full week's worth of week, and then the people are unemployed again. the statehouse speaker said

the plan was, quote, intentionally designed for short-term projects to pump needed jobs. nobody ever said they would be full-time jobs for months at a time! who would even think of that? of course you just hire people for 35 hours. i mean, are you nuts? oregon is not the only state to do this. at least ten others have launched stimulus plans. in ohio, for example, they passed and almost $1.6 billion stimulus package before the feds even passed theirs. ohio governor strickland estimated the program could create 80,000 new jobs. that is fantastic, governor, and let me just say this, and i mean this from the bottom of my heart. i hope your job lasts as long as those new jobs will. oh, i mean it. in north carolina, they ok'ed millions of dollars to, you know speed things up a bit. they have wanted to speed up the $147 million in government

building projects -- that is government, that is what they do. they run up debt to make money. back in oregon where their 12.4% unemployment rate is more than the average in the nation of 9.4%, they sold bonds to pay for everybody from replacing lightbulbs -- can we stop with the lightbulbs, please? to finishing construction on a school. oregon state senate president told the a.p. "sometimes work for an individual an individual is better than no work." sometimes? i mean, i think that's true all the time. here is something else that is true all the time. sometimes millions of dollars are better spent by the people and not by the government, and the federal government's $1 billion car allowance rebate system is plugging right along. you know it better as cash for clunkers. if you have a clunker, you just bring it on in, and get up to $4,500 cash on the spot! well, you don't actually get

actual money. you know, you get a rebate off of a more efficient car, but what is a clunker? in a model of government efficiency, the rules for dealers are spelled out in a little 136 pages of rules an guidelines book, but basically, you clunker must be no more than 25 years old, and have a combined highway/city rating of 18 miles a gallon. who drives one of those cars? it must be in driveable condition, and then owned and insured the previous year. that's the clunker. wow. well, if you meet those requirements, great. now you just go down and turn in your perfectly good car -- i mean, your clunker, and then you can get a prius. but what do they do with your old car? well, the government spells it out, again, in a book. the vehicle must be crushed or shredded so, you know, it won't be resold as an

automobile. they may sell some of the spare parts but not the engine or the drive change. according to the detroit news, dealer dealers must disable the jen gin by draining the oil and use a substance that destroys the engine after five minutes, which, as a side ♪, i think they are using the same substance on our constitution. where was i? oh, yeah, where are they going to put them? fill up the lan fills with crushed cars? that doesn't sound environmentally sound, you know what i mean? but according to one report, we may just sell all of these used cars, thee junker cars, the engines to china. isn't that kind of appropriate that we're selling american engines to china. wouldn't that drive up the price of hard to find spare parts? oh, yeah. then you would be forced to get rid of it and get a new fuel efficient car. oh, my gosh, i just thought of this, we could get our money

back -- not really -- from all the money we spent now that we own general motors and chrysler! this is great! force people to buy the cars that we don't want to buy. oh, that's great. some restrictions do apply. remember, deadline in november. now, our old friend, the national endowment for the arts may be spending stimulus money on pervert reviews and undergrown porn. i was hoping that would happen. the n.e.a. was just given $80 million in stimulus dollars to help artists around the country. stick with me on this story. most of the money is being spent to save jobs in museums, orchestras, theaters and dance troupes being hurt by the recession, but some grants are a little more controversial. $50,000 for san francisco's frame line film house, which recently screened thunder crack, described as, quote, the world's only underground

kinky art porno horror film, complete with four men, three women and a gorilla! i don't know how it ends, but gee it sounds great. $24,000 for counter pulse, where the weekly poll of perverts is put out, as the long running pan-sexual performance sear series. i don't know what a pan-sexual is because i don't know think i want to know. join your pell low pervs for twisted found. this is exactly where i wanted my hard-earned dollars going. it's great. here is the thing i would like to do i would like to show you something. i'm doing this for charity. i'm doing a series in paintings that will just really -- just because i want to -- well, here is what i want to do, really. really, art is just about exploring things, making people think, pushing the

edges, you know, all of of the bull crap you heard when they put crucifixes in urine, so i think how could i paint something that would really hack people off, so this is my first one in the series. it's going to be a long series and it only goes downhill from here. this is george washington, of course. gilbert stewart. it was unfinished. when i think of george washington, i think of truth. now, who is the opposite of truth? gee, i saw this as kind of the shroud of turin, the unfinished -- can you pull in on this, the unfinished part as the negative as i see it, and i may change this. ok. i put roosevelt here, and -- opposite of truth is deceit. i put roosevelt here. i'm trying to think, is there anybody else that's a president that represents deceit? nothing comes to mine yet, but i'm hoping for a federal grant, and then i'll sell it for charity, and that's your hot list.

>> the president of the ayn rand institute is here and we're going to talk about everything that has been going on. did you miss the beginning of the show? would you please show up on time? i'm here every day at 5:00. don't miss it. in the healthcare bill, section 440, this section where they say, hey, it's voluntary, but we will send people into your house to show you how to parent your children. yeah. why not? >> we are incompetent to make any other decision, why not have the government tell us how to feed them, clothe them, or what kind of education -- oh, yeah, they run the education system already.

look, this healthcare bill, you know how they're going to cut costs? they're going to tell you that you're too expensive to keep alive and cut costs by requiring that the elderly show up in front of committees of bureaucrats that justify the healthcare that they get, and if it's too expensive, won't be efficient, then you just die. glenn: people won't pay attention to this, because they will say that will never happen. that will never happen. how do we at all try to get through -- let's say this administration doesn't do it, but you don't want to give this much power to anyone. it's never worked out well. >> well, it really hasn't, and if you go back to healthcare. medicare, medicaid, they started out as relatively small programs. they started out as, you know, they projected budgets, 10, 20 years out. we are now at something like 100 times, spending 100 times more money on medicaid than the projections made in the '60's on how much we would be

spending at this point. government programs always grow. they always grow over our lives. glenn: let's look at some of the programs. the income tax in 1913, it was at 1% for, you know, all the normal people, and then it was 7% for the very rich. >> for the very, very rich and they promised at the time it wouldn't go anywhere. that was it. glenn: people would riot in the streets if it got over 10% and they promised it never would. >> within four years, president wilson, another one that is probably one of our favorite presidents launches america into one of the dumbest wars in history, world war i, and interestddddddd

glenn: the0th other networks have accountsdown to the beer summit. i'm just counting down to the end of our country and constitution. yuran is back with us now. all government programs start with the best of intentions. >> that's what they would like you to believe. that is the essence of what we face in this country, those intentions. the idea that government needs to solve these problems, the idea that we have a moral responsibility as individuals an as a nation is to support the weak, the unemployed, the people who retire, we're responsible enough to save them, the fact we have housing policy. all of that is motivated by an ethic that says the well-being of other people is at the heart of the problem. >> that is your choice as an individual. if you want to help, great. if you don't, great. >> if you are not helping enough and you believe in that ethic, the government will come in and force you. glenn: you think government is

saying, oh, no, we will keep it small, let's go through this. 1913, the income tax, 1% for the regular schmo like you and the president. 7% for the rich, you know, those evil rich. never more than 10% we were promised. 1918 for the rich it was 77%. social security, we have 1% for the bud man, 1% for the evil employers, and now it's 6 times more. here is the catch, the social security, the life expectancy was 63. you were never intended to get this money. >> it's a pyramid scheme. the whole social security of social is that you have a lot of people being employed and paying into the system ax few people retiring. it is a pyramid scheme. the only difference between this and madoff is that we're forced to participate and people will be as well off as madoff. >> now they over half of all of the homes, half of all of the homes in america, fannie mae and freddie mac.

the white house has the beer summit coming on in a few minutes. stay. we have our own beer summit. our very first own beer our very first own beer summit.........

rigier. what's going on? >> i'm an average guy at the table trying to figure out the world solutions. there is an difference between sean and sarah. sean asked for a nugget for breakfast and sarah said no. he obviously did the rational thing after this, which was jump up and down, wave his fists in the air and scream at the top of his lungs and sarah puts him in time-out. it is unbelieve am. glenn: that's crazy. >> so anyway, somebody asked me about it. i said look, i i don't know any of the facts at all, but i do know sarah is an idiot. that -- and of course i also know there is a history of abuse or something, so all that being said, i figured, you know what? it's time to get everyone together and crack open a beer or a yahoo and sit back and come together to a conclusion, and maybe we can com
