communities 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've explored some of my interest 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 gonna 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 billions of dollars every year in this country to try to address poverty and economic 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. come on in the house. here it is what it is, but i'm happy here. must rock's very much of over that. i seriously thought i was the help this person ever. i also just feel like someone helped 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 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 the potentially fatal i'm 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, 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 offer bankruptcy, you know, of my, um, cardiovascular specialist. there, vanderbilt, p wrote on my medical records, 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 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 it perfectly healthy, but you don't know what's going on inside someone's by the way. we spend another for trillion dollars on it. spell it other 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 now 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. 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 up or is, and it community likes the $1.00 in the army originally. and when i got out, i just didn't come back home, i just started work for 2070. the reason that i'm here back in savannah is because uh, i have custody of my 2 granddaughters. they are uh, 11 and it's hands so full time thing. i leave here and go home and start getting ready for them to get home from school. and then of course we have to have supper. 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, 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. 6 6 who's smart enough so you can do whatever you want them to have worked hard is that you do still a lot of us live in a basement. in fact, i gave up the best job i ever had 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 i am, i need to say what you have today. you know, so the

there you go, i do think about where i spend my money and i would much rather do it here. and they have to drive 30 or 45 minutes to foot for the nearest place, the flu because we really would like to stay in 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 nice, you know, as everybody has something to spend and 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 likes lajna. and if i can make the analogy to afford team, if you think about the game monopoly tray time to go around the board, the costco, you 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 unconditional. 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 you can give you hope that maybe just maybe you can still pull this off the, our representatives in the legislatures and in congress they know the investments pay off. right? they know that, for example, a $1000000.00 investments in the fish hatchery, it fell, 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 fish and buy them, come and do a lot of just to fish and say, i have to buy groceries here. had to buy fusion license. i have to buy gas, you know, they say stimuli 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. did you the infrastructure like roads and bridges and rail rings in business for basic income is like infrastructure spending for families for the 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, 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 this money and got yeah, it was hard on i can't imagine where she had to go through the. i hated to put her in it for gauging it. now we 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 is 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 pay it after so, and they're going to come get in time. anyways, my family and are you working right now? i'm signing off at all. i'm working roof and it's hard on me course. i'm notice you guys knows my as the, it's hard on me because i retain fluid and stuff. but i get it done. i,

when i have to cause my kids, you know, we try to go to a doctors office and 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 david. today's 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 and now i heard him a got him would the $1000.00 and then help you a. i mean, it would guard on mine. okay. then back at imagine what it would do for my family. may my wife would live better? we would argue as much is allowed as our valid and

the and then the intel the table. ok. maybe there we go for the of the

things that would inform you to with them would we get into the state of celia? was this because it did just wouldn't care to get a car through the new year. oh for g for teach that way. no. for me teaching the scholars that should thoughtful, i knew that as i'm going to invest, i look forward to with that though, she's more, it's a little bit more remote on the status of enforcement seamlessly. putting them on the move menu to completing it. i'm just, i get, i use one for so the lowest totally, i'm all of the dates. i'm going to study to the progressive rock. i used to show it finished. this is just all just for good news. i'm a fraction of putting this. i'm going to do friday, use it for you, ordering some of our free for, for over the for sure. i'm shown in the temperature. in addition to some of this,

the acceptance. and i'm going to plan with you whatever you do. do not watch my new show seriously by watch something that's so different whitelisted of opinions that he won't get anywhere else. welcome to please. as you have the stake, apartment c, i a weapons makers, multi 1000000000 dollar corporations. choose your fax for you. go ahead. change and whatever you do, don't want marshall stay main street because i'm probably going to make you uncomfortable. my show is called direction. but again, we don't want to watch it because it might just change the way you in the north atlantic treaty organization and celebrating of 75th anniversary in washington. this week, for many in the west,

nato is deemed to be the most successful military alliance of history. for others beyond the west, nato is the most serious security threat to humanity. today the 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 neighbors and say, we're going to help you 1st because we have space in you. we believe that you're going to do something good with that health. and that's what it basic income does. um, just a couple of different things. um the 1st of physician is that there is a, a belief of inherent good that within people there's a common belief in understanding that most people are basically good. i believe in that the we say that you ought to pull yourself up by your own bootstraps. that's a really classic southern. so you know, some people don't have boot straps to pull up. some people don't have hands to pull

them. so some people don't have feet to put them on the person no matter what was specific is or what other felicia's areas are not to do you think it ought to be good enough for us to the 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 misuse it in some way.

some other people choose not to work. so do you think some of these people, if you've gabriel money, they wouldn't turn into uh dope a couch, potatoes, porch and what 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. so i'm looking at this way. if i'm girl in a garden, in my family, what they're that with national guard and we work hard on that. so you're saying i should just open the door and let the neighbor down the road and you know, 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 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 them and we have actually quite a lot of impair 11 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 cash or stop working when they receive it. in 2019 the mayor of stockton california last and 19 month program, 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 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 to like be or more engaged parents re establish

relationships, really just have an opportunity to show up and we have their full lives. and that's the beauty and the power path. i use the for so maybe things stay and on top of paying the bills in 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 allow them to be somewhere where you 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 and just focus on school some las vegas the meals 3 and medical building the coding. as i finish that semester, i made the dean's list, there was a very exciting gamma g b. i graduated in june. i was very excited about that because it was really one of

the things that he cannot hand or me from, you know, job basically when the job receiving a 1000 dollars the 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 they will show up in their own lives called valentine's day. it was very exciting. you can make them with the keys 6 much warm. the baby was way to got married, had a we in how about tomorrow? and i get up there on this line. oh my god, i have to do something to tear the golden road. i got a row and i looked up a blue table. he crying hard and ever worn out. it was,

it was the excited yeah. she saw her to be, she started to the ripple trying. the mom actually was on that and i was with kansas city. so they also want our relation to my mom got sick and you know, she needed a lot where she got the medicine and a queen. she hit with the big issue with the so now her being down, you know, just the return. if i would just to be like mom here for you just like he was 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 and the opportunity to do whatever they needed. it wasn't about share or subsidy dedicated to one particular bank. or most importantly, we do like the family model, a bowl, a booby. we were able to celebrate a lot they we thought holidays and just count actually being able to get together as a family have so many things lined up. i'm actually going to be looking for a job in bees ministration. i met some great people, great things to say, let me know when cost a breeze to come talk to them. so i'm very excited about the notes just saying 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 up. i'm in do you think is gonna happen when the program ends? you know, i believe that we spent a lot of time thinking about what happens when something in and to me that's a clarifying. i'm not trusting individuals. so if i am going to say that i trust you enough to give you money and know that, and you are going to do what you and your family need. i have to say that i trust you and that they 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 think 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 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 a state cash to me. it's freedom and it is bringing. it gives you options that without you do not have much 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 would 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 something i also really want for myself. and i think that's how you create a really powerful political movements. 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 know if you have picked up on it or not, but right now, things are less than ideal for a huge number of people in this country. they bore ban, 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 feel a little better if you have 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 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 as you be. i think about the

the in the year of 1954, the united states of america engaged in warfare against the people of vietnam. the white house supported the corrupt above and governments of southern vietnam. 1965

americans began their invasion following the aim to defeat the forces of vietnamese patriots. defend the gun was confident that the victory would be on the american side, due to its military superiority. however, the vietnamese, during this war into total hail for the occupants. unable to cope with a guerrillas, the american army started blanket bombing alongside using chemical weapons and naples, which burnt all alive. the village of my lay, where he 1969 american soldiers killed 504 civilians, including 210 children, became a tragic symbol of this war. all and all. during the whole period of this conflict, the usa dropped on vietnam more than $6000000.00 tons of bonds, which is 2 and a half times as much as on germany during the 2nd world war. in 1973,

the american army under the pressure of the rebels, withdrew from vietnam, and only 2 years later did the puppet regime. and so i got involved. however, the vietnamese paid a high price for their freedom. more than 1000000 in vietnamese people became the victims of american aggressors. the what is part of the leg? is it a portable post? good? is it the defense you of us in that in the word part? is it something deeper, more complex might be present?

good. let's stop without please. is. that scope out of the friends reveals that 12 charge is kilograms, c o powell durrell, phones being interrogated in connection with president mike chrome and assist the cases and political but fails to convince elbert tech chiefs some of the ready fled the youth. meanwhile, the chief thought faced building guidance around who housing being arrested, dropped a bombshell letter openly, admitting to suppressing information about cobit 1995. and finally, corruption on these platforms at the request of the us government on the is really national security minister calls for the building of us synagogue. got this side of a alexa mosque in jerusalem, thoughts as the countries intelligence chief ward.
