12:30 am
so on cnn about an hour after the debate ended and she was basically saying, oh joe did great at, you know, and, and, and, and the correspond at the interview where i anderson, cooper kept interrupting or, and saying, well, you know, what are you talking about basically and she just stuck to the script always done so much as president. and you know, all these democrats and all the media members, everyone you could think up for weeks has been saying when, when you're alone with joe biden, behind closed doors. oh, he's like up to date, there's nobody better than him. and now we saw what joe biden is like. and again, this is not an accident. they asked for this debate. the bible campaign wanted this debate big tech to where he started. they picked every thing. no, mike, no, no audience. all the roles were from buyers. can they know somebody knows what they're doing and this was a, this was like planned in my view, disaster place. all right, talk to host dave miles berg. steve,
12:31 am
thanks for in your analysis. my pleasure to alright and you stay with us. i'll be back in about 30 minutes from what's with much more news in the meantime. be sure to visit our website, r t dot com for the very latest breaking news. and unexpectedly, the most people, i know they laser 8 hour job and go home and relax. but i have about 3 or 4 more hours to go. so i just keep my clothes, change my clothes, the 1st job, go to the 2nd and it just keeps and keeps me from wanting to go home. what's the book about this town?
12:32 am
oh, well it is finished to a piece of mailbox. it was, it was um, oh yeah, i have listened to some of that one with you. of the news you didn't have to maybe work is hard to get by. you did uh maybe spend more time with your loved ones while you still have them. margaret. this was my grandpa sister. she came off a horse in a curve and i found her on the bank and over. here's my grand great grandmother and great grandfather. here it's pays full. i really lock it up here. and then since my family's buried here, how this feel like,
12:33 am
i need to come up here and take care of the cemetery. the i disliked volunteer and do things for my community in try to make a difference. the no one ever dies and says, and i wish i had a better job, they say i wish i had more time to spend with my family. i wish i could have explored some of my interest of music or ard, 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 100 is we already spend
12:34 am
millions of dollars every year in this country to try to address poverty in economic and security. 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 banks 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 an offense. the money in the house here it is. what it is, but i'm happy here. must rocks very much of over. i seriously thought i was the help this person ever. i also just feel like someone taped me in my spine with an x and my blood pressure was 380 over 260. and then they finally came in and decided that i've had a order dissection. there's 3 lines to your
12:35 am
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 my blood pressure down very, very low. because if it gets too high, it will rupture in use dead wherever you're at me when you're sick and you're trying to deal with a potentially fatal health issue. there's just 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 would call it was like a $11200.00 just to file bankruptcy. and i'm thinking, you know, am i so broke? i can't afford to file for bankruptcy, you know, of my, um, cardiovascular specialist, their vendor bill, he wrote on my medical records,
12:36 am
they 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 a 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 to, i had to eat the look at someone like you can look at me right now. perhaps and, and maybe think of a perfectly healthy, but you don't know what's going on inside someone's, by the way, feel it. we spend another 2 trillion dollars on we spend another trillion dollars on tax cuts for wealthy people. do you see the effects of wealthy people spending those tax cuts that we give them insulin o or do you think that instead of economic activity always coming from the top and
12:37 am
trickling down, that economic activity might actually be kind of thing, the bubbles up from the ground right with, if everybody has a decent amount of economic security and has money to spend, then economic activity will spiral upwards and community like so on the left in the army originally. and when i got out, i just didn't come back home. i just started work for 27 years. there isn't that i'm here back in, so i is because uh, i have custody of my 2 granddaughters. they are uh, 11 and 10. so full time saying i live here and go home, start getting ready for them to get home from school. and then of course we have to have suffer. and if their homework gets their bass and it's bad time and ready to start all over, they've been through a lot of debate as small as they are the same things,
12:38 am
the hard things. and the child should, you know, drugs is really bad thing here in this whole small town and it has destroyed many families. it sure has showed minded the world to smarter live so you can do whatever to as the owner at one of the half works hard, is that you do still a lot of us live in the basement. the impact i gave up, the best job i ever had in my life when i came back to take care of girls in that it was either that or let them go into states custody. and so i gave it all up, came back. how am i need to stay what you have today? you know? so the
12:39 am
other thing about where i spend my money and i would much rather do it here, and they have to drive 30 or 45 minutes to it's for the nearest place. the blue because we really would like to say the town come alive again, like i said, we just need more people that are willing to invest in the community. if we give everybody money, you know, everybody has something to spend and they can spend it in, in each of these businesses. and that creates an upward spiral of economic activity that can revitalize. the small town likes lajna. and if i can make the analogy to a board game,
12:40 am
if you think about the game monopoly tray time to go around to 4 and it costs go, get another $200.00. you didn't have that $2.03, telling you pasco, and monopoly. the game would be over and about 3 terms. see that $200.00 you get for passing. go with monopoly. that's universal, basic income. there no matter what, it's on conditional, you know it's come, you're getting it, whether you're winning or you lose. and if you're losing, it can give you a chance, so you can give you hope that maybe just maybe you can still pull this off the, our representatives in the legislatures, the congress, they know the investments pay off, right? they know that, for example, $1000000.00 investments in the fish hatchery until hollow pays off the multiples of that amount every year in the tourism that it brings into this community. a lot of people actually travel here just to fish and buy them, come and do
12:41 am
a lot of just to fish and say, i have to buy groceries here. have to buy fusion license. i have to buy gas, you know, like they certainly like to economy. you know, quite a bit the 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. it goes straight up the river just didn't offer, just got a crown infrastructure like roads and bridges and rail springs and business. basic income is like infrastructure spending for families by the less families to, to pay for the infrastructure that they need,
12:42 am
whether it's child care or whether it's housing, whether it's food closing, for 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. finally, my wife came up with some money and got yeah. it was hard on. i can't imagine what you had to go through the. i hated to put her in that predicament. and i would never had to put her in that project me again if i can't help it. but like i said, as long as hard to get work, it's hard to pay, you know, if you can get the money to pay, it scares me that. and any day, or if i know if i don't buy it after so, and they won't come get in time. anyways, my family and are you working right now? i'm fine off it on working roads and it's hard on me course. i'm
12:43 am
notice you guys knows my is the, it's hard on me because i retain fluid and stuff but i get it now and i, when i have to because my kids, you know, we tried to go to a doctors office. they wouldn't accept him because they don't have insurance. and then that goes all the way back to the money saying 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 but they've all turned him 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, it was a $1000.00 a month. so you and i mean it would gone on mine. okay. them. i can't imagine what it would do. so my family
12:44 am
12:45 am
the russian states never as tight as on one of the most on screen and the best english i'll send, send up the in the 6595 and speed. what else? suppose question about this. even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin mission, the state on the rush to day and split the ortiz full, even our video agency, roughly all the band on youtube tv services. what question did you say? even closer to the
12:46 am
job items, whitehouse continues to insist it as little leverage over the israeli government to bring a hall to the fighting and gaza, or lebanon. this is obviously an absurd claim. at the same time, it appears to us has resigned to a wider conflict that includes levels and beyond the 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 that you're worthy of my health and then i'll help you . ready more we can treat people the way we treat our families. our children are
12:47 am
neighbors and say, is going to help you 1st because we have face and you. we believe that you're going to do something good with that help. and that's what it basic income does. um, just a couple of different things. um the pre suppositions is that there is a, a belief of inherent good that was in people. there is a common belief and understanding that most people are basically good. i believe in that the we say that you have to pull yourself up by your own bootstraps. that's a really classic southern. so you know, some people don't have bootstraps to pull up. some people don't have hands to coleman and some people don't have feet to put them on the to be a person. no matter what was supposed to been is or what
12:48 am
your other police as they are or where they are not to jesus, be good enough for us to the what's interesting to me talking to people about basic income, especially people that wouldn't 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 that in some way. some other people choose not to work. so do you think some of these people in the view will money they wouldn't turn into uh, dope a couch, potatoes, of course,
12:49 am
and while we are name. mm hm. but when i ask people, well, 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. but i'm looking at it this way. if i'm growing a garden and my family go out there, have a nice garden. we'd work hard on that, so you're saying i should just open the door and let the neighbor down the road and it will work so hard. come in there and get part of my garden. how is that right? for us, of 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 they 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 and i mean, i've actually quite a lot of empirical evidence saying, well actually most people act like you and your friends in your family. basic income pilots 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 last and 19 month program
12:50 am
where they gave $500.00 a month, no strings attached to a $125.00 residents and made less than the cities annual median income. one of those recipients spent the money on surprise. groceries paying bills, you know, the same things you and your family would probably spend the money onto the so we are within the last $30.00 days of the pilot project. in this 1st year, with the 20 women that we worked with, we have seen them do everything from pay off credit torrie debt. go back to school, get veterans claimant opportunities. so like they're more engaged parents, re establish relationships, really just have an opportunity to show up and we have their full lives. the then that's the beauty and the power. okay. i use the for
12:51 am
so maybe things stay and on top of paying the bills, the household things i'm saving to like take the baby to glaze so you know they, you know, you can't really just really have the baby is close though the daycare allows them to be somewhere where he can also not, not just be watched, but i also learn the me, i was able to go ahead and enroll him in daycare in the end is focused on school. start in las vegas, the military and medical building. they are coding. as i finish that semester, i made the dean's list, there was very exciting gama g d. i graduated in june. i was very excited about that and because it was really one of the things that he cannot hinder me from, you know, job basically where the job receiving a $1000.00
12:52 am
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 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 better career opportunities individually that the school individual paid off that individuals able to show up in their own lives. because valentine's day it was uh, his name's diety. you can make them with the keys at 6 much warm. the baby was way to got married had a we in house and i get up there on this line. oh my god, i have to do something to 2 years ago. the road i got a row and i looked up a blue table. he crying hard and ever worn saturday or it was excited. yeah, she started the, she started the, the ripple trying this is mom actually was on that and i was looking at so
12:53 am
far. so, so they also want our relationship goals and to explain why, you know, my mom got sick and you know, she needed a lot or she got mad at the inquiry. she hit with the bill she on with the key. so now her being down, you know, just to return the favor just to be like mom, we're for you just like use here for me even though it is a guaranteed income pilot and 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 about share or a subsidy dedicated to one particular bank. or most importantly,
12:54 am
we do like a family model, a movie, we were able to celebrate a lot they we, forbes holidays and just count actually being able to get together. i have a family that have so many things lined up. i'm actually going to be looking for a job in bees and ministration. i made some great people with bright things, say let me know when cost a breeze to come talk to them. so i'm very excited about the notes just so people you know, and looking out for you just see that you're trying to do something, you know, change your life, easy generations, standing here waiting like come on and we had to use that i
12:55 am
think is gonna happen when you know, i believe that we spent a lot of time thinking about what happens when something ins. and to me, that's a clarify and i'm not trusting individuals that 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 enough to have put a plan in place for when is money and stuff. so i believe that individuals are going to continue to do whatever they need to do to take care of themselves and their on the, 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
12:56 am
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 realistic. cash to me, it's freedom and it's bringing it gives you options that without and you do not have cash allows them the freedom to actually make the decisions to determine what it is that they need for themselves. you know, right now i'm an 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 and not pitch. so it's something i really want 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.
12:57 am
take this opportunity and see that we do not have unlimited time. and so my ask for you all to night 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, no doubt picked up on it or not, but right now, things are less than ideal for a huge number of people in this country. people are being let go from jobs that are never going to come back rakitin. medical bills are never going to be able to pay, you know, by the way, a global freaking contagion level pandemic. hard to feel very good about site traffic. but don't you think you'd feel a little better if you had slightly more assurance that you and your family were going to be ok? we really believe in the land of the free lunch act, like it's a slip that giant 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 as you be. i think about
12:59 am
1:00 am
the public anger mounts across as well as local turned up the heat on the prime minister urging and benjamin netanyahu and his government to resign over their failure to bring all the hostages home from casa, also a company who she didn't long term contracts for the leasing related projects from 2019 therefore, we have never dismissed the version because there are internal and external features in state groups that says oblivion. presidents exclusive comment to r t after his leadership successfully with the attempted military coup on wednesday
