9:32 pm
the bombing up until literally last 2 years of my life lives been like one emergency situation away from complete financial catastrophe. basically, i just, i live in paycheck to paycheck, not having any extra money for any thing at all and you know, things happen. my name is tre crowder. i got attention on the internet for these videos i made featuring a character called the liberal read drink router, little red will to try crowded long time. no scheme. i want to talk to you about something is deeply personal to my payables. lot people asked me what to think about black live matter. well, put simply i find that they do for
9:33 pm
a long time when i was a young adult, i didn't have health insurance, you know. and so i wouldn't do i intramural sports and stuff like that. it called just grab sincerely because i was like, well, you know, when i blow my knee out or something, i'm screwed and now it's just those types of things just knowing that you're on the precipice. so if i take ruin all the time. yeah, it's extremely stressful. and i know for a fact just statistically that a lot of people in this country are living that day to day. you know, all the time, only 41 percent of us adults have an up savings to cover a $1000.00 emergency. we have record numbers of americans who are on the verge of having their cars repossess more than a 137000000 americans are facing financial hardship because of medical that my son couldn't afford the life setting the saving medication. he needed the worse name on a planet picture is simply staggering. the pandemic is also causing many to go hungry. my bills are going to back up, but i'm going to be in trouble here. couple,
9:34 pm
a student loan debt in the united states has doubled 40 percent of americans. 65 and older are in default. that's always going to be there for me. personally, i've heard about the idea of the universal basic income and was pretty immediately of the opinion. well, there you go, that's at least a solution because we're going to have to do something. the idea is this. every citizen in this country would receive a $1000.00 a month every month, no strings attached that might seem far fetched to you, but it could be a potential improvement over some of our existing welfare programs that i grew up in only wrong. i'm grateful for him, but i kinda look back on those programs and food stamps and all of that the same way that i look back on the final season, a game of thrones. i'm still glad that it exists, but it could have and should have been. so much better, we deserve better. you be, i is actually not a new idea. in america, you can trace it back to one of our founding fathers, thomas paint, you know,
9:35 pm
the guy who 1st convinced people that american independence might be a good idea. he's not the only one and martin luther king junior was for you. we are one of answers. it seems to me as a guaranteed annual income, a guaranteed minimum income of people and pro family is about 1969. richard nixon even proposed an actual plan to congress. let us place a floor under the income of every family with children in america. and without those, the meanings souls 5 with no problems for human dignity that sol bite the lives a welfare of welfare children. the day one started in america actually already has a form of basic income, alaska. each year they take a portion of the states oil revenue and distributed to every man, woman and child, to be an example for the world and the lights. and the last comes out to be extremely proud of it because as a whole concept of people owning your resources and government having to take the
9:36 pm
money back from the people instead of the government, getting the money and partially moved out. and socialistic program is exactly the opposite of what some people term, the dividend to be socialistic. it's capitalistic to look screen. okay, so they've got oil up in alaska, but how do we pay for basic income and the rest of the country? taxes? yeah, said it the dreaded t word, but yes, actually it's time to in corporate welfare, get big tech to pay its fair share and use tax mechanisms to create the strongest safety net the world has ever saved. and all these rich people can rest easy knowing the extra money they give back isn't going to some big solis government bureaucracy. it's going directly to the people social justice. get with it. the toby law firm, a small town, a lot of times, especially in the south, it can end up in this like sort of a small town contest thing where it's like now my hometown,
9:37 pm
smaller than yours. and i feel like that's an argument that typically when, because it's really, really small. i remember saladas dislikes quite a little southern town with, you know, some charm to it. and the football team was good. the town square was, you know, just little mom and pop businesses, a store for us, that type of thing. and everything was fine. but at the beating heart of the towns economy, it was this big clothing factory where most people worked. and that's for my mom works best for me. i might ever call her to come out there for a long, long time. and then i'm i tubs. my dad, he was, he was the head engineer. and my mom, she actually so every body and so on, that you talk cable. this worked osh kosh, osh kosh. that's kosh that,
9:38 pm
and if you heard of osh kosh by, gosh, or whatever. yeah, for decades the center of the towns economy was large clothing factory and in the mid ninety's after night it made like a stoner at midnight and went south of the border and we never recovered. there's been no real industry that's come in there in the 20 plus years and so and as far as i'm aware, there's not anything major in that regard on the horizon so, so on the, in my opinion is like a textbook example of the top place that would benefit a lot from a basic income and then also from the states where you think the people there would be all for it with but i don't know that that is true. the, there it is saying that the crime, these, they ask us for gosh, factories. yes, my gosh, it is. how long do you know how long it was here? the factory was here and when he close,
9:39 pm
people had worked there 40 years. go ahead after here. as i was in business up the street and there was a little wind blowing through town that maybe a factory was going to be close. and i mean people stopped coming in to the restaurant and spending 4 bucks on, you know, a sub or something like that. if it was 3 for $5.00, people stop spinning it, you know, you've got the cafe move on on that are running the video store and the car lot. and that by the time i graduated high school it's, it's literally all going to say and not all, not only is that all gone but like, you know, all of this stuff with mama are getting a strong out of your own to jail. my, my life changed tremendously for the worse, just like everybody else is around here when that happens, you know, and like it affected like literally everything and pray among the ripple effects
9:40 pm
under dan dot see. yeah, i know, you know, that was, i mean yeah, i was like the, the hits just kept on come and the saying, i think there will be a lot of people that will say, well, i know, i mean i don't know hand. yeah. i'm not looking for hand. well here's the white bring, bring the job back. that's what you need to do. politicians, but like, i mean, can you easily envision a lot of people responding to it that way? oh yeah, i can see that. right. well, i think that's going to be the problem. i would love to also see how they respond to that check. right, right. see what they did. right? presumably they buy stuff or, you know, finally get like the find out fixed on their car, whatever that i've been putting in for forever. but i'm saying they're going to go to some mechanic around here to do that. you want to main like see a radically, a big portion of it would get like pump straight back in to just sure the general
9:41 pm
economy because they're going to spending all the things that they need, that they haven't been buying in a long time. because i the money to do the idea of giving unconditional cash may not sit well with everybody. i know that's a shock or how does this so a paycheck every month, even if you do not have a job. i think it's a continuation towards the road of socialism in america welfare should be a 2nd chance and not a way of life. we're going to take from you over here to give to you over here because that's what we're going to do. the universal base again come when you're texting people and redistributing walls without marriage, that he encourages lazy, not forced warren buffett to work hard wood floors, this guy to work hard, not handling them a check. you can not appreciate something fundamentally that you get for free. the
9:42 pm
know you might this trust it providing a guaranteed income to low income african american women in their families. the med, no, you my distress. it's doing this in the form of a $1000.00 a month for 12 months. i am so excited. it's like my 2nd child in the matter a month, so i have 2 kids and 2018 and they know you mothers trust is one of the it is taking a population that works so hard to be seen on a daily basis. and really saying we see, we honor your stories, we believe in you and we trust that you know what it is that you need for your family. the there will be laws from industry forgives, so support my kids, tell me pay deals and have enough to stretch from month to month
9:43 pm
when my mom was in abuse relationship. my dad was very, very small. so when i got it and my relationship model issue was abusive and i was like, when never ever put my kids in jeopardy. oh, all in a relationship that i mean is not working. so you have to break the cycle somewhere . and so that's what i did, i'm going to jackson, and i brought this a $1000.00 a month, no strings attached. if you use a hey, well, i would like them moves. i don't know. i just won't go crazy. that one night when mamma phases way here, we actually from a sleep on the couch and all seemed i suppose right here, right outside the door. the shots are the 1st day and they came to my
9:44 pm
mind square and my babies after you for my life and i knew, but at the moment i'm not stay here forever. i will give it is to pay off some dis agency to raise my for the score so that i can get the home that i want for me and my the the at the end of the $19.00 century, africa was divided between european empires, which mercilessly oppressed the indigenous population, modern day tends and he used to be a german colony. the germans levied heavy taxes on local drives and use them as
9:45 pm
free labor on cotton plantations. the pheasants protest turned into an uprising against the colonial list under the banner of the religious movement of the magazine. mozy. it was led by a man named kinsey to the rebels use guerrilla tactics, because they did not have the power to rush the german army in head on confrontation. but the germans were not able to suppress the resistance of the guerrillas either. so the invaders decided to starve that population to day one of the commanders of the german troops. captain wagon time, wrote only anger and one can lead the final submission. military actions alone will remain more or less a drop in the ocean. the blasphemies plan works. the invaders burned, villages and fields. in 2 years, germany deliberately starved up to 300000 people to death. later,
9:46 pm
the monstrous experience of the 2nd right in tanzania was copy by the 3rd right let by the nazis in order to extra pay the be both of europe. the, all of the individuals that we work with living communities where they receive housing vouchers, we really are trying to figure out the impact and benefits when cash is infused into these situations where individuals are highly subsidized. but then also we're trying to get a better understanding of how the women themselves are able to show up. are they less stress at a more engaged in their local community, or they're more engaged in our kids school? are they more engaged in their own self care? are they able to now look towards careers and not just the job because they have the freedom, the,
9:47 pm
the, the t shirt. um, you know, pretty much getting up verify. getting the middle one dressed and ready, take him to the bus. stop a lease by $545.00. the new office go. we're actually coming back to the house. oh, this one she's getting ready? probably this will arrive no later than 655. actually having to rush back home, get the baby ready to take him to my mom's house is entering the turbo tuesday once you get the code and come along, sir, come, let me see, let me see, can i see the rating myself and also be in place a like 720 some light rushing. the so i think of the lack of sleep is very challenging. i want to at
9:48 pm
least get to a point in my life where i'm actually working a good paying job. i want a job. this is just going to make is meet, i want to be able to, in saving, you know, take trips and do all of the things too. so in a reason that i am a fan of guaranteed income because it is this idea that everybody is deserving. just by virtue of your being here, you deserve a life for you and your family can drive you deserve a life where you can actually dream you deserve a life where you can actually so strings is going to help us really, really like really, really a lot i'm very size about these are not really having too many like rules or just tell you or you and you have to spend it on or how much she have to say let me say to nurse when i was on tanf the somebody's for gays,
9:49 pm
you have to put this, this is for j as in transportation. well, he see that though, i see you. i'm not here. you can say food stamps and pay lie. be like you can't take food stamps and get your medicine. so is, is a big difference. being able to just go and do everything i need to go with is going to be exciting. i think most of america believes that our systems work that's, that we have welfare and we have these safety nets and they actually are doing what it is that they're supposed to be doing. and that's not true. this actually a med, most folks don't quite understand how complicated these various systems are in, in the complication of the systems that they're not wife. and you're just in effect that for example, if you're on 10 of your case worker to say ok, you have 2 weeks to get
9:50 pm
a job, but no support is provided and getting that job, no child care is provided. why you are looking for the job. if you do not have a job within 2 weeks and you are sanctioned, in most cases, that means that you will lose your smith for 90 days. what that means is that for 90 days you have no way of insurance insurance household you are to have for work. take a moment list this thinking and that's also why a lot of individuals choose not to fool with tana. because who can run the risk of not being able to feed their kids the need. sorry. oh, okay. and instead of recognizing that is the policies that are wrong were blaming the families were saying, oh family. so one of the work r o family, someone or you know, have to take the drug test that we're requiring them to take because their own drugs now is none of that. if you went out and had conversations,
9:51 pm
you could actually really get to what the problems are with these policies that are being implemented. i think our current safety net system is not working. and so i believe that a guaranteed income is an opportunity for us to rewrite the system. the everybody deserves to be able to take care of their child. every body deserves to be able to have safe and adequate housing. everyone deserves to be able to depend on a meal, a society they cannot take care of its children, society, they cannot take care of its elders, society, that leaves people in the coal without options cannot call the self civilized we're trying to elevate and push towards a dignity economy, an economy which focuses on the inherent dignity of every person and show that that actually operates in the best interest of all we have to equip mothers to be able
9:52 pm
to care for their children. and the more we're able to do that, the more whole society we're raising, the more hol, circumstances and conditions where lifting up so that we can make certain that we create these dignity economies. we should say the in america, we do have a welfare system in place to help people who are struggling financially, but it's a conditional system. you have to prove to the government that you truly need help . and if that doesn't immediately sound unfair to you, consider that different people's different financial lows can be very wide ranging hard to quantifier typically time sensitive and overall, just generally speaking pretty damn complicated to sort out. luckily for them, every american knows that our government ex sales at resolving complex and nuanced issues and an efficient and judicious manner. rise. oh yeah, yeah,
9:53 pm
this is joe. now it's in fact is the opposite in our system as well and truly broken. but let's imagine for a 2nd that you are deemed worthy of receiving government simple. the minute you get a job and your income increases that support will decrease. think about the incentives of that that can make it so that it doesn't make financial sense to take a job if it's a low paying job. if you are a single parent, you need child care for when you're working. you can be successful in your job, search and end up worse off than you were before when you were on government assistance alone. that's called a poverty tramp. the universal basic income, on the other hand, is an unconditional system. you don't have to prove that you deserve anything. you don't have to constantly jump through bureaucratic hopes. you don't have to choose between working a job and actually being able to afford your bales because under you be i, everyone will always be better off with a job you be. i can be an economic slower on which we all can stay at the want to let you know we're having
9:54 pm
a townhome discussion and cook out tomorrow, understanding out flyers for event. we're having tomorrow at the port house. my name is alma so lucky and i am an associate professor of practice in political science at n y u, shanghai. awesome. it's going to be right across the street at the courthouse. ok, and we're going to talk about ways of bringing economic vitality to towns likes one of the rate if people really understood what the basic income is, i think would be great if this is something that they started to talk to candidates about as well. so that we can bring the broader attention to the idea based income and get the voices of ordinary people rather than just academics like me. the . the simplest way to like explain a basic income is that it's like social security for the rest of us. a basic income
9:55 pm
would be a monthly payments that would go to everyone. i think if we get these details right, basic income can eliminate poverty. to increase economic security for working folks and can give a boost to local economy is like the economy of sa lajna. that sound good to you. that doesn't sound too good to be true, the face. how sort of go by. exactly what other. okay, here's one more fond your wedding ring to put money on your electric. and then, you know,
9:56 pm
you're wondering how you're going to get that back and i have no clue. i'm going to get that back. that would rather my bills be pays entering beyond my senior specialist. i see it, i don't, i don't want to be rich by any means. i don't want as in india to, i just want to be able to pay my bills for my kids. that's all i want to be able to get the last thursday. my husband went to child support court over his oldest daughter, not are 3, but his oldest otis when he's young, that judge, look, i just got a job and i'll start paying however much shortly to pay most of it. that wasn't good. it is that he is being said, it's to $180.00 days or until sampling can come up with $700.00 about $700.00. a lot of money to me. $10.00 is a lot of money to do. so with hand on, what do you use for christmas? what do you do?
9:57 pm
need to know are here and they're still like the harder i tried so much seems to be normal. for further they go back in the one of the feminist arguments for basic income is that for very long time care work as being devalued with devalued care work as the sites. and if we think about what really matters to a good society to a society where people able to flourish. and then of course, realize that care shouldn't be putting much more on the center of the conception of a good site. and music income by being unconditional enables people to make the choice to spend more time caring for others. the
9:58 pm
why would what we tax the wealthy for basic income is because we take the wealthy or we, we resent them for their success. no, it's because they're the ones we're benefiting from the economy. as it is right now, they're the ones we're doing well. the are, we're not gonna take all their money to let them keep an eye so that they are incentivized to keep doing the work that they do. we want to reward entrepreneurs and one of our award people who take business risks. we want to reward people who create jobs for other americans, but we take some of their, some of the gains that they're making and we share it with everybody. and that not only has the effect of reducing economic and security and eliminating poverty. it also has the effect of putting resources in the hands of the people who know best, what to do for their own communities.
9:59 pm
the acceptance. and i'm here to plan with you whatever you do. do not watch my new show . search like why watch something that's so different whitelisted or opinions that he won't get anywhere else. what could i please or do you have the state department? the c i a weapons makers, multi 1000000000 dollar corporations. choose your fax for you. go ahead. change and whatever you do, don't want my show stay main street because i'm probably going to make you uncomfortable. my show is called stretching time, but again, it's not. we don't want to watch it because it might just change the way you hello and welcome defrost of full force. here we discussed some real in
