7:34 am
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 huggers, we already spend millions 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 bank 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 advance. come on in the house. here. it is. what it
7:35 am
is, but i'm happy here much the rocks very much of over. i seriously thought i was, i held this person ever. i all sudden just feel like someone hit me and my spine with an axe 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 keep my blood pressure down very, very low. because it gets too high, have a rupture in you just dead where you're at me when you're sick and you're trying to deal with her potentially fatal health issues . there's just so much stress, you know, on the financial end of it because you're getting these phone calls every day and,
7:36 am
and every attorney, i will call it like, of 101200 bucks just to file bankruptcy. no, i'm thinking no, am i so broke? i can't afford to offer bankruptcy, you know, my cardiovascular specialist there, vanderbilt, he wrote on my medical records, he 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 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 eat you can look at someone like you can look at me right now. perhaps and, and maybe think of
7:37 am
a perfectly healthy, but you don't know what's going on inside someone's body in what we spend another $30000000.00 on. we spend another trillion dollars on tax cuts. are wealthy people. do you see the effects of wealthy people spending those tax cuts that we give them in salina, 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 that bubbles up from the ground right with if everybody has a decent amount of economic security and has mine to spend, then economic activity will spiral upwards in a community like salon, do for the army originally. and when i got out, i just didn't come back home or the started work. so young for 27,
7:38 am
the reason that i'm here back in so ana is because i have custody of my 2 granddaughters. they are a 11 a full time bang. i leave here and go home and start getting ready for them to get home from school. and of course we have to have supper and if their homework get their bass and it's bad time and ready to start all over. they've been through a lot to be as small as they are and same things and 3rd things and that the child shouldn't, you know, drugs is really bad thing here in this whole small town and it has destroyed many families. it sure has shook man to the ground crazy oh. 6 smart elliptical, or whatever it is, the owner wanted to have works hard that you just didn't want to live in
7:39 am
a basement a bag. i gave up the minutes job. i've had my life when i came back to take care of the girl in the head. it was either that or let them go into states custody. and so i gave it all up, came back out. and i need is there what you have to do? you know, so in where you go, i don't think about where i spend my money and i would much rather do it here than to have to drive 30 or 45 minutes to for the nearest place. they will because it's this
7:40 am
is the fashion nowadays. we really would like to say the town come alive again, like i said, we just need more people that are willing to last in the community. if we give everybody, hi, everybody has something to spend in. they can spend it in, in each other's businesses and that creates an upward spiral of economic activity that can revitalize the small town like selena. and if i can make the analogy to a board game, if you think about the game monopoly for a time and go around the board, the costco, yet another $200.00. you didn't have that $2.03 time you, pasco, and monopoly, again, would be over in about 3 terms. see that $200.00 you get for passing go when monopoly . that's universal, basic income. they are no matter what. it's unconditional. you know, it's come, you're getting it, whether you're winning or you lose it. and if you're losing, it can give you a chance to give you hope that maybe just maybe you could still pull this off
7:41 am
in our representatives in, in legislatures and congress. they know the investments payoff, right? they know that, for example, a $1000000.00 investment in the fish hatchery, they'll 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 finish and buy them, come and do slot. i'll just to visual, say on the bar groceries here at the bar vision, loss of that bar. guess. you know, like i still like to economy, you know, quite a bit with 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 and the cost of those programs go straight up in the rubric
7:42 am
of the doctor a little bit either further. got here. oh, the offer you got a girl? oh oh, did you? ah, infrastructure like roads and bridges and rail rings in business. basic income is like infrastructure spending for families, right, less families to, to, to pay for the infrastructure that they need. whether it's child care or whether it's housing, whether it's food closing, or a car that works or medical expenses. these are all infrastructure investments as well in the productive power of our people and our families in our communities. barry mo, i'll come up with money and got me out here. it's harder. again, imagine what she had to go through a hated to put her in a predicament,
7:43 am
and i would never have to put her in a predictor again if i can, i can help it. but like i said, as long as it's hard to get work, it's harder paid. you know, if you got the money you can't pay, it scares me. death that i'm a a or if i know of i don't buy it after so long. they're gonna come get entire me away from a family in. are you working right now in finance of an hour, working roof and it's hard on me. course i'm no did she guys knows lions and stuff? it's hard on me cuz i retain fluid and stuff. but i get it and i, when i have to give my kids, you know, we tried to go to a doctors office, they wouldn't accept him because he don't have insurance. and then i 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 all turned him down
7:44 am
and he didn't show it to you guys, but when he slid down the hill over there to catch land in that harrington a, got him a $1000.00 and then help you. i mean it would god. oh my okay. them back a magic way it would, dave. so my family may, my wife would live better. we would our year much is mounted down baron and wyoming paper. okay. if you don't me careful. mm.
7:45 am
mm. a cash. oh, well i just don't want you to see how he's being asked to pay an engagement. it was the trail when suddenly find themselves. well, the more we choose to look for common ground ah
7:46 am
ah ah ah community. we have 2 choices when we design programs for the poor, for people who are struggling, we can say you need to prove to me 1st, you're worthy of my health. and then i'll help you. ready or we can treat people the way we treat our families or children our neighbors and say, we're going to help you 1st because we have faith in you. we believe that you're
7:47 am
going to do something good with that help. and that's what it basic it come to us. i just up a couple of different things on the presupposition is that there is a, a belief of inherent good that was in people. there's a common belief and understand that most people are basically good. i believe in that. ah, we say that you ought to pull yourself up by your own bootstraps. that's a really classic southern say though, some people don't have bootstraps to pull up. some people don't have hands to pull them. some people don't have feet to put them on to the person to say, no matter what was specifically a lot of in is or what tribe appreciate your other belief system that we try to get
7:48 am
there. isn't there ought to be a common written, loving our name for who they are for where they are not for who and where we think they ought to be. that was good enough for jesus. i think it ought to be good enough for us to hey, ah, what's interesting to me talking to people about basic income, especially people that would benefit from it is they're often resistant 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 will misuse it in some way. some other people choose not to work. don't you time somebody to paypal or via bill money, they wouldn't turn into a dope, a couch, potatoes, work and what we are name. but when i asked people what, 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. i look at
7:49 am
this way. if i'm growing a garden in my family, go out there. have a nice garden wait, work hard on that. so you're saying i should just opened the door and let the neighbor down the road. he didn't work so hard. come in here and get part of my garden house at rat for us. this kind of resistance is almost a question of human nature. you know what, 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 an early. i've actually quite a lot of empirical evidence saying, well, actually most people act like you and your friends in your family. basic and compounds have been done all over the world. and generally, they do not find that people misuse the cache or stopped working when they receive it. in 2019, the mayor of stockton, california launched an 18 month program where they gave $500.00 a month. no strings attached to $125.00 residents are made less than the cities
7:50 am
annual median income. one of those recipients spent the money on surprise. groceries pay and bills, you know, the same things you and your family would probably spend the money on to. ah ah, so we are within the last 30 days of the pilot project. in his 1st year with the 20 women and we work with, we have seen them do everything from payoff predatory debt. go back to school, get better and coin that opportunities to like be, are more engaged parents to re establish relationships. really does have an opportunity to show up and live their full lives. and that's the beauty and power pairs. oh, i use the for so many things. stay and on top of paying the bills in the household,
7:51 am
things and i was having to like take the baby to play so you know me, you know, you can't really just really have the babies. oh, so oh baker allowing him to be somewhere where he can also not, not just being watched what also learned. oh i me. i was able to go ahead and now enrolled him in daycare in the and just focus on school. on my sake a semester. he a medical bill and they all coating at that finish that semester. i made the dean's lease, there was very exciting. i got my ged. i graduated in june. i was very excited about that because ill, really, one of the things that he cannot hinder me from, you know, job basically well good 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
7:52 am
a leg up an opportunity to put in place a plan for themselves and their families. so no one quit working individuals when and get better career opportunities in the data. look at the school individual paid off dead individuals, labor, charbonneau, lives, poles and they it with the mayor side. we can make them with the keys in 6 months from the baby girls. when a guy mary had a when. how about tomorrow. c visa, and i get up there on this line. oh my god, i have to do something to tear the golden road on row in. i looked up a he, boy, he boy, he crying hard and air. roy, you know, there was, it was exciting. well, you know, because he found, yeah, he started it, he started the that the rural, all crying. yes. mom actually i was on madness with cancer 1st. and so they also want our relationship close to the, you know,
7:53 am
my mom got the phone and you know she needed a lot, or she is mer to stay in the oh, name she here with the below. she'll with the key. so now, harby and dal, you know, just to return the favor just to be like, mom, we're for you just like use here for me. oh, even though it is a guaranteed income pilot, 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 the opportunity to do whatever they needed. it wasn't a voucher or a subsidy dedicated to one particular bank. or most importantly, where do i go? a family, madeline. katie boley movie. we were able to
7:54 am
celebrate a law that they, we, you know, times before holidays and just count probably actually be unable to get together as a family. i have so many things lined up. i'm actually going to be looking for a job in these administration. i made some great people who it's great think way, let me know when i crossed the bridge to come pop to them. so i'm very excited about a, you know, just say people did, you know and looked math for you jason c. date you're trying to do something, you know, to change a life and you situations then in your awaiting like kamani. and we're happy to share with of what you think is gonna happen when the program and i believe that we spend a lot of time thinking about what happens when something ins. and to me that's
7:55 am
a clear sign of that trusting individual. so 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 are not there. put a plan in place for when is money and so, so i believe that individuals are going to continue to do whatever they need to do to take care of themselves. and, ah, ah, in the end, people want to be productive. they want to have a better tomorrow and they have to day. 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. artificial intelligence is going to improve progress though in terms of people and whether they're better
7:56 am
or worse off. that is optional. this is a moment to lee. this is a moment for debate because the future of our families and our children is really aspect cash to me. it's freedom, it, it, it's bringing. it gives you options that without that you do not have a casual, asked them the freedom to actually make the decisions to determine what it is that they need for themselves. you know, right now i'm 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 in that pitch. so it's something i really want to 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. i take this opportunity and see that we do not have
7:57 am
a limited time. and so my ask for you all tonight 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 know to have picked up on it or not, but right now things are less than ideal for a huge number of people in this country. a blur ban. let go from jobs that are never going to come back. racket medical bills are never going to be able to pay, you know, by the way, a global freakin contagion level pandemic. hard to feel very good about a drug mail. don't you think you feel a little better if you had slightly more assurance that you and your family we are going to be okay. we really believe in the land of the free lunch act like it was slip at john, 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 at u b. i think about a
7:58 am
mm hm
7:59 am
with a ah, nice to come to the russian state. local. never be as tight as on the northland scheme div. asking him then i'll sunset for a week within the 55 when. okay, so mine is 2000 speaking with little ban in the european union. the kremlin. ca, yep. machine, the state on crush up to date and split our tea, spoon, neck, even our video agency, roughly all band to on youtube with
