kieschnick, i want to go home to see what's the book about this town? i well, it is foolish. you have to be to may of actually it was, it was amish. ah, yeah. i may have listened to some of that one with you. ah, if you didn't have to, maybe work is hard to get by. you kinda maybe spend more time with your loved ones while you still have him. margaret, this is my grandpa sister. she ah, came off a horse i in a curve. i found her on a bank. and now here's my grand great grandmother and great grandfather. here his pays full. i really like it up here and then since my family's buried here,

how this feel like, i need to come up here and take care of the same material. i disliked volunteer and i do thanks for my community and try to make a difference. no one ever dies and says, and i wish i had a better job, they said, which had more time to spend with my family. i wish i could have explored some of my interests 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 hackers,

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 is, but i'm happy here much rocks very much of over. i seriously thought i was the help 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, 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 my blood pressure down very, very low. because it gets too high, it will 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 issue . there's so much stress, you know, on the financial end of it because you're getting these phone calls every day and, and every attorney, i will call it like 801200 bucks, just to file bankruptcy. now i'm thinking, you know, am i so broke? i can't afford to offer bankruptcy, you know, of 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, i had no money. and, you know, i had, i had to eat, you can look at someone like you can look at me right now. perhaps and, and maybe think l a perfectly healthy. but you don't know what's going on inside someone's by in what we spend another 30 trillion dollars 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, might spend, then economic activity will spiral upwards and community likes align left in the army originally. and when i got out, i just didn't come back home. i just started work, started going for 2070 the reason that i'm here back and so on. i was because i have custody of my 2 granddaughters. they are 11 and 10. it's a full time in saying, i live here and go home, 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 again. they've been through a lot to be as small as they are and same things and heard things and that 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 shown amanda the grand crazy oh. 6 a i so not wanting to have to work hard that you just don't. well, all of us live in a basement a bag. i gave up the best job i ever had my life when i came back to take care of the girls and it was either that or let them go into states custody. and so i gave it all up, came back out. and i need to know what you have to do, you know, so ah,

no, i don't like about where i spend my money and i would much rather do it here. and i have to drive 30 or 45 minutes to for the nearest place. it will with 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 money, you know, 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 time ago around the board, the costco, yet another $200.00. you didn't have that $2.00 every time you, pasco, and monopoly. the gang would be over in about 3 turns. see that $200.00 you get for passing go and 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 you can give you hope that maybe just, maybe you could still pull this off a representative in legislatures, congress. they know the investments payoff, right? they know that, for example, $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 try here just to fish and buy them, come and do salon. i'll just to farish will say, i have to buy groceries here at the bar. fusion lies example by gas. 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 than the cost of those programs go straight up the river cuz the doc is a little bit either further, but here low lawford's. got a girl. oh oh, did you get infrastructure like roads and bridges and rail brings in business. oh, basic income is like infrastructure spending for families. right. last 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, or 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. volley mo, i'll gamma was money and got me out. here is harder. gain, imagine was she had to go through a hated to put her in a predicament, and i would never have to put her in a predictor again, if i can, i can help it. but like i says, line, it's hard to get work. it's hard to pay, you know, if you can get the money again, hey, it scares me death that i'm a ne, a or if i know if i don't buy it after so long, they're gonna come get in. type me away from a family and are you working right now in fine and often our working room?

it's hard on me course unnoticed. you guys knows my hands and stuff. it's hard on me cuz i retain fluid and stuff. but i know when i have to get 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 maybe days all turn came down and he didn't show it to you guys. but when he slid down the hill over there to, to catch land in that heard him a got him now with a $1000.00 and then help you. i mean it would

god oh mine. okay, to market imagine what it would, dave. so my family may, my wife would live better. we went our years much is mounted our valen. and while momma into the paper. okay. if you don't me careful. mm. mm. a leash. ah,

for is your media reflection of reality? in the world transformed what will make you feel safe, isolation, whole community? are you going the right way or are you being that somewhere? direct? what is true? what is faith? in the world corrupted, you need to descend a join us in the depths will remain in the shallows.

a money lend money in that new money. it gets a loan money with money, la moon

mean 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, you're worthy of my help. 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 going to do something good with that help. and that's what it basically come to us for just a couple of different things. 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. 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 be a person to say, no matter what was specifically a lot of will be in is or, or what tribe of christianity or other belief system that we prior to that 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 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 take it home with a bully. gabriel money, they wouldn't journey into well doped, a couch potatoes, work and what we are name. but when i asked people, 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 this way. if i'm growing a garden in my family, go out there now and ask garden, wait, work hard on that. so you're saying i should just opened the door and let the neighbor down the road. it 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,

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 earlier 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 cash or stop 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 were made less than the cities 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 $30.00 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 or more engaged parents to re establish relationships, really does have an opportunity to show up and live their full lives. the then that's the beauty and the power pairs. i use the for so many things stay and on top of paying the bills in the household things and i was having to like take the baby to clay so you know, they, you know, you can't really just really have the babies. oh, so on baker, allowing him to be somewhere where he can now. so not, not just being watched what also learned. ah me,

i was able to go ahead and now enrolled him in daycare in the and his focus on school mistake is the military and medical bill in the coding. as i finished that semester, i made the danes 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 job, basically uh, we'll do job receiving a $1000.00 a month even though it is a blessing. it's 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 a better career opportunities in the they didn't look at the school and it was paid off dead individuals, labor charbonneau, wives. oh. and you were polls of valentine bay. it was a very decided you can make them with the keys in 6 months for the baby. girls were

in a gar, mary had a when i was nervous 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 bow he cry on an air ruined by you know, and it was exciting. well, you know, he paying 50000. yeah. she started the, she started the that the room, all crying. yes. mom actually i was on madness with cancer 1st. and so they also want our relationship close to the, you know, my mom got the oh and you know, she needed a lot or she got c o is mer to stay in a queen o name. she here with the bill. she a 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 in their other guaranteed income pyle is 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? family, milan, gayety, bow lane movie. we were able to celebrate a lab of the week before holidays and just count as prior by actually being able to get together as a family. and i have so many things lined up. i'm actually going to be looking for a job in diesels administration. i met some great people who it's great think they

let me know when i crossed the bridge to come pop to them. so i'm very excited with, you know, just say people did, you know, and looking out for you to see did you're trying to do something, you know, to change a life new situations than in your awaiting like kamani. and we're happy to share with 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 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 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 really of stake. cash to me, it's freedom and it is 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 for, you know, the disadvantage 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, we have to take this opportunity and see that we do not have a limited time. and so my ask for you all tonight is free 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 able are 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 treadmill. don't you think you'd 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 blackett. 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 with

are we witnessing the end of globalization as we have known it for about the last

half century? it would certainly seems so the west ability to shape the world and its own image also appears to be on the way. as a result, should we expect new regional and block globalization in 2020 to the italian government approved a package of military aid to ukraine, coordination with nato to help ukrainians defend themselves and fight back about 150000000 euros. well, i make a week, almost, even atomic bombs are here even on the fame nazzo and the u. f with you should the ones that people will die just for make money. the one that has been yes because it a while you mess you got through on it. if you're gone through or not, you are complete. i mean there's water damage with me on it on to get i will put them in. those will dark more sir. me my show it was wrong tool or

a for opa zach leila. lesser opinion polls show that over 70 percent of italians are against military support for ukraine. i landed in confront with the day last or you flat a letter yet lee got it more on a skid out and go home and do not she then the the, the deli dad. it wonderful. i lucille my last lot a lot you this little things and we're not returning fund theda the laptop. oh, when i was showing wrong, i just don't hold any new world yet to shape out. disdain becomes the attitude and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look so common ground.

ah, ah, a u. s. organization which claims to be dedicated to defending the rights of journalists worldwide rejects the idea of supported watch and media. as the reports emerge of upcoming you sanction targeting russian outlet a us senator drops a resolution to stop funding. saudi led coalition forces in yemen, bro. over 23000000 people are in dire need of aid. the former c. e o crypto currency exchange which collab owing over a 1000000 creditors.
