4:30 pm
is likely to lead to a 13 percent savings in national health care expenditure of privilege to more than $450000000000.00 annually medicare for all of us would save us 450000000000 dollars but there's more to the entire system could be funded with less financial outlay then it's incurred by employers and households paying for health care premiums combined with existing government allocations so not only would it save just about every citizen money it would also save money for our ruling elite the only people who would end up worse off would be the parasites who get rich off the insurance industry that is yes and is anyone surprised that those people who employ thousands of lobbyists don't want that to happen why are we even asking them it be like if a rabid raccoon were running around terrorizing the whole town in order to decide whether to get rid of the raccoon you asked the tape worm inside the raccoon.
4:31 pm
and kapler him said definitely don't kill this record. everything is going great. the insurance companies and every politician funded by the insurance companies are the case forms they form paper paper. here's one more notes from the last study we estimate that insuring health care access for all americans would save more than 68000 lives and 1730000 life years every year compared with the status quo let me say it slowly for you medicare for all would save $68000.00 americans every year or 2 if you don't want medicare for all then you want to kill americans which makes you. anti-american joe biden is
4:32 pm
anti-american michael bloomberg is anti-american donald trump is anti-american now i'm all ears if they want to come forward and defend their point by saying look a lot of americans are are. we need to thin the herd. don't tip well or they own truck knives listen to macklemore out loud on the subway or they think it's ok to spend $2000.00 on a shirt and then complain about a $50.00 parking ticket that they got for leaving their car park with one of the tires up on an old man's foot. if we're lucky the thousands of americans our health care system killed every year would be those people. that's a fair point but i don't hear any of them making that argument instead i hear this crap let's talk about medicare do you think there's been any truth in advertising
4:33 pm
that it's going to raise taxes on middle class people such as wealthy people do me a favor can we ban the type of plastic surgery where people look shocked at everything there's a. still alive. my face c was dead in taxidermy years ago. joe wants you to believe that your taxes would skyrocket on medicare for all but in fact everyone would be paying a lot less once you calculate medical costs in the united kingdom which has a national health care system national health system even after accounting for taxes they spend less than half of what americans spend per person on health care and yet life expectancy is higher so joe biden like all the corporate candidates is full of. bugs but. the buddha did was. also full of. but it's different it's
4:34 pm
a different 2 different brand entirely new judges using the bus store to talk companies medicare for all who is one of the health care plan against medicare for all who want to means we take a version of medicare and we make it available for every american i believe this will be a better option than any of the private plans out there. medicare for all who want kids guess what p.d. medicare for all already is medicare for all the one tent because just like in the british system if you're rolling in cash you could still buy some gold plated extra special health care where they massage your prostate even when you come in for a tooth ache. what pete is actually talking about is having some sort of crabtree public option to treat people like feral dogs so that everyone who can even slightly afford it still feels the need to get private insurance that way all the big insurers can continue to make ends and all the poor middle class people can
4:35 pm
continue to be so to sum up medicare for all is cheaper for american cheaper for the country better for long term health of everyone and would bring us in line with the rest of the industrialized world i wonder why so many people are starting to support it now you are wise if you think about things the right. i'm really can't take the news from behind investigative journalist friend of the show and guy with greg palast has won a lawsuit against the governor of georgia the last i heard was to find out that thousands of names purged from the voter rolls. using something called interstate
4:36 pm
cross-check now the name interstate project may sound to space just plopped have no fear it is simply the way republicans make sure black people don't vote all right no need to worry the palace website stated a key issue at stake are the interstate cross-check purge list secretly provided to georgia by the city by the kansas secretary of state chris kobach who worked closely with donald trump and is known for his racially biased vote suppression techniques come on greg and no warning for let's not exaggerate kris kobach is known for many things he can balance of broom what is no. 5 sag and he can make that farting noise under the arms. because he's kris kobach of kansas his friends call him k.k.k. . you know. the race is voter
4:37 pm
suppression is just one of his many talents. anyway this is a big step towards finding out who are the millions of people nationwide who have been illegally knocked off the voter rolls in fact donald trump would have lost provably lost the last election without interest a cross-check and the democrats are either too stupid or too corrupt to actually stand up against it so apparently they've left it all to the man in the hand like it's curious george. however i don't think this story is appropriate for children. like kids george is curious as to who are the millions of people purged from the bunker also so that a new yellow factors can take over the white house what a silly monkey. just like switching on to the to the scout's honor boy scouts of america has officially filed for bankruptcy as it faces hundreds of sex abuse claims. it's doing that
4:38 pm
so that the organization doesn't have to pay their victims now this does bring up a good question which i feel is long overdue and that is how ridiculous is that the boy scouts organization exists or. we already know of over 12000 sexual assault how does anyone need to go where no. learning how to tie at x. and stuff worth big scar from. putting your kid in a tiny uniform and sending him off with a strange lonely middle aged man is not a sustainable business model. and less the kid is a chimney sweep that has its own moral questions. the amount of harm that can be done versus what could be gained he didn't say ratio it would be like if there were
4:39 pm
an organization that taught little kids how to knit koala bear hats all right cool sounds great let's do it but then you find out that one out of every 15 kids gets the everloving snog kicked out of them by a durans death metal fan. no no not worth it no thank you koalas began. moving on to environmental news even the bright red state of utah has now embrace the plan to tackle the climate crisis apparently they have just figured out that when climate scientists say we're on the path for all humans to go extinct. that could hurt ski season. intil chill yesterday they thought ski season would be fine. also due to climate change the new york times this wigs falsely stated this is the end of australia as we know it yes yes that's true oh
4:40 pm
but this is also the end of the world as we know it you know. tell try to recall at the end of australia as we know it challenge the hollows it's the end of australia town of birds areas of california it's the end of australia child vanished it's the end of australia tell the island nations that are only surviving vs storable right now that it's the end of australia the new york times is terrible i would say it's only good for covering the bottom of your bird cage but there aren't even that many parts laughed. why well part of it probably has to do with the fact that there are enough insects for them to eat the guardian is reporting this week that karsh black comet or tests have a real and huge decline in the number of insects research shows insect abundance and sites in europe has plunged by up to 80 percent in 2 decades if you're wondering what black tom litter is zigzagged clear what you think of it. scientists
4:41 pm
have been testing the number of bugs that splat on car windows because scientists are asked. couldn't they test how many insects show up when you leave a nice warm pile of dog. because they do that did you have to send your their face through their 70 mph on. the way this insect die off fellows terrible things for humanity but it is good news in some ways it means fewer flies will be stuck to the tanning spray on donald trump's fish. i think we all want that to go to a short break but i'm going to perform live it. austin and dallas texas flagstaff and tucson arizona and new york city take you to details are redacted torah dot com also get the new app by r d america it's called portable t.v. and it's free wherever you get your wrapped up right barrel of course.
4:42 pm
you'll.
4:43 pm
please. list celebs. licked. and a very warm welcome to you watching us in such. is your media a reflection of reality. in
4:44 pm
a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation full community. are you going the right way or are you being led. away. what is true what is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. or inmate in the shallows. we're still in an era of resource colonialism again this is a big risk and the one big thing that could really inhibit the kind of electric vehicle revolution that a lot of us want to see is if we can't resource the battery components in
4:45 pm
a sustainable ethical way then it's not going to be a successful revolution. freedom of speech is one of the pillars of democracy and also one that in the whist is perceived as being in greatest peril with the left claiming that it's become a vehicle co-opted by the right to spread hate and the right to write english has sinister snowflake sense it's just what the boundaries of free speech. blunts of become a battleground in the u.s. government people are demanding the shut down of a local plant from my yankee is right. now my focus because it's a very dangerous oh no clare power plant that was attempting to run the reactor
4:46 pm
beyond its operational limits this case just sort of puts a magnifying glass on where's the power in this country where's it going is it moving more towards corporate interests or is it more in the idea of a traditional participatory democracy is are powerline with the people this case demonstrates that struggle in the very real way. the struggle on aunty. welcome back to early came after our big dumb president started trade war in china american farmers were hit with higher tariffs on crops they export such as soybeans and when our government bailed out farmers to the tune of $28000000000.00 multiple investigations have found that a crazy amount of that money did not go to regular farmers for more we go to our senior agricole later now to him again oh. ok. so which farmers did this money actually reach it reached the ones who grow the ship that
4:47 pm
tofu is made out of and as a vegetarian isn't that all you need to know i mean where else are you going to get your protein from i don't know if you heard but there are these things called vegetables no no no no no i don't put anything in my mouth that looks colorful and doesn't taste sweet and i learned that when i was 4 with crayons. and again at 34 when i drunkenly made out with this juggalo anacondas and. sees this why did you ever think that would taste sweet because juggalos like to go so early that everyone knows this but if you insist on knowing which farmers got the bailout the majority of aid has gone to the wealthiest 10 percent of farmers and as of last summer more than 99 percent. trump's bailout went to white farmers so now rich white from supporters will finally have something in common with poor whites from
4:48 pm
supporters receiving welfare. america's wealthiest farmers got the bailout money we sometimes rich white people need help. even mike bloomberg need it the d.n.c. has helped to get into wednesday's democratic debate. and if he couldn't get in just all the wealth alone the rest of us are fucked. plus when it comes to our food supply it's better to overestimate the impact of the trade deal than under estimate which might be why according to several independent economists the u.s.d.a. is paying farmers twice as much as the actual harm they suffered from the trade wars so the people who need the least help are the only ones who profit this is exactly what happened when our government bailed out wall street would stand bailed out the oil industry that's destroying our planet but who doesn't bail out friends when they're in trouble that's what congress did think of it as a big bank getting arrested for peeing on an elementary school building and their
4:49 pm
one phone call was the congress for bail money. when it's your friend you overlook that it happened in broad daylight during school hours at recess. for the 2nd time . in one week at the same school 1st. i think your analogy lost its way but that only shows how absurd it is that congress would bail out industries they're clearly in bed with well actually trump didn't need congress to approve this bailout which is good since 8 of the 10 states the grow the most soybeans voted for him in 2016 truck knows he can't afford to piss them off in the lection year so we have to do what he always does pretend his problems are a porn star and throw money at it to make it go away. money is only going to fatten the pot. it's a large farms that pollute the earth but is it black history month would it have killed him to bail out at least one black farmer who my ancestors were forced the
4:50 pm
farm for hundreds of years on us soil for no money do you really think the government is going to start giving us money now good point 0 in again on a. growing inequality everyone is trying to figure out why especially the economists but maybe economists don't know what the fuck they're talking about for more on this we go to our very own intelligence failure and is really. originally defined as the art of managing a household this once obscure discipline has grown into one of the most powerful fields in the world from regulations to wages to that new amazon that deprives whole foods employees of oxygen when their productivity lapses economists have played key roles in shaping the decisions that affect our everyday lives since the
4:51 pm
1960 s. economists have provided authoritarian governments with advice about suppressing organized labor and beating inflation used in service of projects of export led development one scholar describes the berkeley mafia in so hard to those indonesia as economists with guns although they might sound like a gang of petroleum oil smugglers who bludgeon their opponents with birkenstocks the berkeley mafia was a group of u.s. trained economists who helped push privatization on indonesia this is back when economists love the free market almost as much as they loved wheat. and i guess they still do love well both of those things modern economic thinkers are beleaguered by a belief that the law professor james kwak calls economists true mention his full name is james. definitely not a quack. he defines economies of as the premise that people companies and markets behave according to the abstract 2 dimensional illustrations of an economics 101
4:52 pm
textbook yeah come on have you ever seen a graph in real life like out in the wilds. a condom ism has led many smart and well intentioned people to do absolutely horrendous things like support the pinochet dictatorships austerity and she lay or deregulate wall street work for a company that was fixing bread prices. in fact there's a guy who called out me or pete on this very thing and he knows all about this stuff the proposition that i've been on frontlines of corporate price fixing just to get that out of the way you worked for a company that was fixing bread prices. new york times writer and yet i knight binyamin appelbaum has written a book called the economists our in it he documents the neoliberal era and the rise of the economic profession from the marginality of economists and state service in the 1030s through the central of the by the 1980 s. and underwriting high stakes decisions that reverberate across people's lives
4:53 pm
economists have been put in positions of power to legitimize and perpetuated an economic system that has harmed people's lives but the name of that system is difficult for even their critics to come up with it's called capitalism it's an ugly word hard to see followed by a plosive and all bunch of other consonants plus it ends in an ism those are never fun liberals don't say the word capitalism very often because they don't like to take the systems name in vain well that and because it's something that they want to keep around which is why they focus on those egghead addicted to snorting tweed economists as if they're the real problem according to someone like apple bob the message is that economists have done wrong but they are not beyond redemption capitalism needs new ones to survive its latest bad run only problem there is that its latest bad run it's already been going on for 350 years p.r.
4:54 pm
can't fix that even the honey nut cheerios be wouldn't be able to improve capitalism even if it teamed up with the budweiser bullfrog right wing economic thinkers however are far more unapologetic about their embrace of the c. word take president trump's former economic adviser stephen moore. said he thinks capitalism is a lot more important than democracy i'm not even a big believer in the mockers when you're not supposed to say that out loud and that is what most economists think but you don't admit to it in polite company stephen moore understands that his job like most economists is to defend capitalism for the pretty bad rap it's getting right now maybe we should get different economists ones who actually believe that democracy is good and inequality is bad heck we could get economists who don't even wear tweet maybe they could go full
4:55 pm
flannel tom star's time. getting better economist would be a great start but more important than that is getting a better system reporting from washington i mean there's only. you know your headline from the future in 2 months you'll read. boy scouts of america reach a settlement with 12000 victims in which they will give them an undisclosed amount of their childhoods back. and in march you'll learn. so many arabia begins using u.s. health care system as a form of torture against political prisoners president. finally this coming november. hoovering i accidently purchases governorship of idaho hope you can read gift enough you know. that's hard to tell but my new book the bullet points and punch lines will be in stores next the wig tell the stores near you to get some
