The Jesse Kelly Show. Louke Penrose sitting in for Jesse Kelly.
Good to be with you, coming to you live from
San Diego. That's my home talk radio station. I broadcast
weeknights on Cogo out of San Diego, and happy to
sit in for Jesse tonight. As we head into the
(00:36):
big Labor Day holiday weekend, the official last hurrah of summer,
my boys are already back to school. I have three
to one in elementary school, one in middle school, one
in high school. So I got it all covered and
well today this was the last day of the first
full week, so they had like a half week and
(00:58):
they're exhausted. So they're looking forward to the three day weekend,
and I hope you are too. Eight seven seven three
seven seven forty three seventy three. I was thinking a
little bit about Labor Day. I don't even know is
there going to be a presidential proclamation? Usually the president
will say something. The President hasn't been in the White
House for quite some time, so nobody knows who's running
(01:20):
the country. But I did see that they adjusted the
unemployment numbers. The Labor Department comes out with numbers and
then they adjust them. And you may have heard the
story they they were off by eight hundred thousand jobs.
And I was looking at the categories and the areas
(01:41):
that are showing growth, even though unemployment is higher than
they said it was. Was like, the two biggest categories
were service workers and government employees, and those are that's
number one, number two by far, Like the third is
(02:03):
way down. You're getting into construction. But for the most part,
the only area of growth is working for the government,
and that could be state, federal, or local government and
working in the service economy. And that's a bad thing.
(02:24):
There's nothing wrong with service work. I've done it. I've
done front desk management at hotels. I have been a
buser in a restaurant. I worked at Burger King. I've
done it, so there's nothing wrong with it. It's honest work.
It's hard work. But you can't as a country run
a complete economy having everybody do each other's laundry. And
(02:46):
I think going into the Labor Day weekend, this is
a good time to start talking about this, and I
want you to think about it over the weekend, because
we really need to change the trajectory we cannot canntinue
to have the largest area of growth government workers. So
back in the day, we had a fantastic economy that
(03:10):
was robust. The post World War II American economy was spectacular.
It was three legs of a stool. You had professional work.
Professional work is doctor, lawyer, businessman, accountant, engineer. You had
(03:31):
service work. Those are the people that make your beds
in the hotels, do your laundry, and make you a martini.
And then you have this third category called manufacturing. These
are people that go to work at a factory every day,
take raw materials steel or wood or iron, and turn
(03:52):
those raw materials into a product that then retails for
sale and you buy it. And for the most part,
through the fifties and sixties and most of the seventies,
the amount of people that worked in the manufacturing sector
(04:14):
dwarfed the amount of people that worked in the professional
sector or the service sector. Like most people that worked
either worked in manufacturing or supported manufacturing work. And everything
in your house, and I mean everything in your house
(04:35):
was made in America by an American worker at an
American factory, making really good money, by the way, and
that supported an economy that grew to become a powerhouse
on planet Earth. It wasn't just the fact that much
(04:59):
of the world was damaged as a result of World
War Two. It was some of that Europe was damaged,
and the Soviet Union was damaged, and nobody really knows
the extent of the damage in Asia and in China,
and we all know what happened in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
But it wasn't just that. It was because the United
States got down to business after the war was over.
(05:20):
Nobody wanted war, and we went ahead and built ourselves
a wonderful little country by putting everybody to work manufacturing
things for ourselves to sell to each other. Think about it,
everything in your house, all your appliances, your washers and dryers,
and your refrigerators and stoves and ranges and count kitchen
(05:44):
counter appliances, all the electronics, all your entertainment in the house,
the air conditioning unit, the heating unit, all the plumbing,
all the electrical appliances, all the lighting fixtures, all the
furniture in your house, and to a large extent, most
of your clothing all made in America at American factories
(06:09):
by Americans. And they would take raw materials and go
to work and turn it into something. They would take
steel and turn it into a washing machine. They would
take glass and plastics and copper and turn it into
a television or a stereo. If you had a sofa
(06:29):
or a love seat or a chair in the seventies
and eighties in the United States, the lumber came from
North Carolina and the fabric came from upstate New York.
If you had a washing machine, it was either General
Electric or Westinghouse. It was manufactured in the Midwest. Right
(06:51):
If you had electronics, you had RCA or Zenith Emerson.
They were all manufactured in the United States. The raw
materials were all mined, and they came from mines and
mills in the United States. And we had rail systems
that brought all the raw materials from where the raw
materials came from to the factory towns, and then those
(07:15):
rail systems distributed all the finished goods to all the
major cities all over the United States. And then when
you went out to go buy a television or an oven,
or a refrigerator or car or sofa, you were paying
the salary of an American and that kept an American
(07:36):
employed because at the end of the day, you're gonna
need a new blender. You're gonna need a new vacuum cleaner.
If you grew up like I grew up in the
seventies and eighties, your mother had either a Hoover vacuum
cleaner or an Electrolux. If it was Hoover, it was
manufactured in Pennsylvania. If it was Electrolux, it was manufactured
(07:56):
in Connecticut. Now you go go and buy some cheapy
plastic made in China, piece of crap. It's no good, right.
We closed down all the American factories, we shipped all
the jobs overseas, we fired all the American workers, and
now we bring in plastic crap from China. So this
(08:18):
labor day, let it be the labor day where we
start thinking about how do we change that because it
wasn't that long ago. It's not like we have to
go back to ancient times. It was just about forty
years ago when we decided to ship all the jobs
to China, so we could certainly reverse course. We still
(08:39):
need washers and dryers and stoves and ovens and kitchen
counter appliances. We still need all those things. We should
be employing Americans to do them. We have all the
raw materials here in the United States, and good news,
all the railway lines are still there and the rail
spur goes right up to the loading dock. We have
(09:00):
the infrastructure, it's all sitting there ready to roll. And
most of the factories are still They drive through factory
towns throughout the Midwest and all across the United States.
It's dilapidated, but it's still there. The parking lot's still there,
and the foundation is still there. So we could get
going right away, and it would make all the sense
in the world and strengthen our economy for the next generation.
Eight seven seven three seven seven forty three, seventy three.

Kelly Show.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
Get the Cure for Rhinos Weekdays with the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
The Jesse Kelly Show. Loup Penrose sitting in for Jesse Kelly.
Good to be with you on a Friday, eight seven
seven three seven seven forty three seventy three, talking a
little bit about the labor day, weekend and work in America.
It is great that people are working. I think that
the service economy is fantastic, And of course it's great
(09:57):
to be a doctor or a lawyer, but we need
to have manu facturing in order for this economy to work.
We need to attract manufacturing. We need to bring manufacturing back.
We need to fire up the factories and put Americans
to work making our stuff. Because even as technology expands,
and even as your cell phone gets more and more advanced,
(10:20):
and even as amazing as it is that I can
screw in a light bulb and with my phone dim it,
that's all fascinating, at the end of the day, you're
going to need a vacuum cleaner. You're going to need
a refrigerator, right the technology of your oven hasn't changed
all that much. And we used to make refrigerators and
(10:44):
ovens and stoves and vacuum cleaners here in the United States,
and they were good paying jobs and they were high
quality stuff. That's the part that really kills me. It
really bothers me that not only did we fire all
the Americans, ship all the jobs to China, bring in
(11:05):
all these products duty free and their plastic pieces of crap,
but we're not even ahead of the game because the
price is the same, like adjusted for inflation. Your grandmother
paid the same for her general electric stove that you're
(11:26):
paying for your general electric stove. Whatever the make is.
I bought, Oh my gosh, I bought my third. I've
been living in my house for let's see. The baby
is eleven. I know we still call him the baby,
but he's eleven. So my wife was due within when
(11:47):
we moved in. I remember that because she couldn't lift anything.
So I've been living in my house eleven years. I
have been through three refrigerators. Three. Do you ever remember
your grandparents get another refrigerator? Do you ever remember their
refrigerator breaking down? Ever? Like they were beasts, they'd last forever.
(12:10):
Now you go in and buy an appliance, and what's
the first thing they want to sell you. They come
chasing after you for what that's right? For the extended warranty?
Did your grandfather have an extended warranty on his appliances? Now?
But now they got to sell you the extended warranty
because they know it's a piece of crap from China
and it's going to break down in three years and
the warranty's not going to cover it. Eight seven seven
(12:33):
three seven seven forty three seventy three. So if we
brought the jobs back and manufactured all these things in
the United States, we would accomplish a whole lot of things.
We'd be putting Americans to work at factory jobs that
will always be there. Factory jobs are recession proof, right,
it doesn't matter what's happening in the economy. At some point,
(12:55):
you will need new breaks. At some point, you will
need a new refrigerator. Some point you'll need a new
washer dry I mean, you know those things will go
out at some point you'll need a new one. Or
a new couple will get married and they're gonna buy
a house and they're gonna populate the house with all
these things. The cycle, that cycle will always continue, so
(13:15):
it'll you'll always need those things, so they'll always be
work to be done. It's good paying work. People aspire.
I mean, that's a it's a it's an honest day's work, right,
People like, Oh, you see all the movies and they
pan factory work as being mindless, and you know, these
factory talents is being depressing. Not true. Throughout the Midwest,
(13:39):
people worked in factories and had wonderful lives. They went
to work at the factory and they had they had
a great job, steady job, good pay, and they came
home to a house that they owned. And by the way,
one paycheck supported the entire family. One paycheck. Only one
person had to go to work. Usually it was the husband,
(14:01):
but it doesn't have to be. Nevertheless, one paycheck supported
the entire household. And that paycheck paid for the house,
in the car and put food on the table in
all these towns throughout the United States, and there was
money left over to take everybody out to dinner on Friday,
take the missus out on the town on Saturday, and
(14:22):
there was money left over to put in the collection
plate at Sunday Services. I don't believe you that actually
happened here in the United States. For decades, a generation
of Americans grew up with that level of economic security.
And it makes sense why, because we're a nation filled
(14:43):
with people that need stuff, So why not make the
stuff that we need and sell it to ourselves. And
all that money circulates in these small towns and these
suburbs and these cities, right, and what does that money do.
That money employs the luncheonette, and it goes to support
(15:04):
the Little League team and it supports all the local
services in the local taxes. It's a marvelous process and
it was a reality, and it moved America from post
World War two into a superpower. And then we gave
it away. We literally handed the jobs over, and now
(15:26):
we importastic plastic prat from China and it breaks in
two years. If you don't buy the extent of warranty,
it all goes into the dump, into the city dump,
and then you gotta run out and buy it again.
And you think you're ahead of the game because it's
a little bit cheaper, right. I remember telling the story
to somebody about the coffee maker, about how my mother
(15:49):
for ye, I mean she's passed now, but she had
the same mister coffee coffee maker. I had to be
like thirty years and it made coffee every single day.
And I probably went through nine coffee makers from my
freshman year in college. It's kept breaking. It was a
(16:10):
piece of crap from China, and you would throw it
in the garbage and you run on out to Walmart
to get a new one because it's only nine to
ninety nine. But you multiply that by the amount that
you buy over a short period of time. I think
my mom was ahead of the game with the mister
coffee eight seven seven three seven seven forty three seventy three.
Lou Penrose sitting in for Jesse Kelly on The Jesse
(16:32):
Kelly Show. I get a lot of calls. I want
to get to your stuff. I just wanted to offer
you that Labor Day message because it's something that we
don't talk about enough, and it is this is a
simple solution. We can get into why the jobs left
in the first place. And to be perfectly honest with you,
both Republicans and Democrats are guilty of shipping those jobs
to China, so there's a lot of blame to be placed.
(16:55):
I am bored with placing blame. Let's just reverse course,
bring them back, put Americans to work, fire up the
factories and and and get in first place once again
and have good quality stuff. Loke Penrose sitting in for
Jesse Kelly on The Jesse Kelly Show. I've got on
ANIMALI sidn't mean Jesse Kelly, you're listening to the Jesse
(17:19):
Kelly Show. The Jesse Kelly Show. Louke Penrose sitting in
for Jesse Kelly. Good to be with you, Happy Friday
eight seven seven three seven seven three seventy three. As
we head into the big Labor Day weekend talking about jobs,
American jobs. Let's let us go to Terry Is in
(17:44):
New York. Terry, you're on the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
A wonderful show. You've got a very good, melodious voice.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Harry's well over the airwaves.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Good to hear, good to hear.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
And I was in welding. I worked in the welding shop,
and you know, that's no big deal. I started out
as a spot welder and went, you know, get a
lot of grinding and eventually moved into the welding stuff.
And it's a wonderful, wonderful life. It's a hard life.
Those guys. You got to wonder where they You think
(18:22):
about Americans and hard workers and all that. You gotta wonder,
just gotta wonder.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Yeah, Terry, I appreciate the call. Eight seven seven three
seven seven forty three seventy three. You can do whatever
you want in America, and that's wonderful. I think this
should be the land of opportunity. I think we should
have nothing but options. We deserve it. Americans work hard.
I think that we are doing ourselves a disservice by
(18:48):
shipping manufacturing jobs overseas. It doesn't mean you have to
work at a factory, but you will always need the
stuff that's in your house. Look around your house. Everything
in your house, and I mean every single thing in
your house used to be made in America. And I
do this. If you follow me on TikTok, I think
(19:10):
it's Lou Penrose Radio. I'm pretty easy to find Lou Penrose.
I go through every item in your house and tell
you the story. Right. I told you the story about
the mister coffee coffee maker. I told you about General
Electric and the Westinghouse Corporation. Did I tell you the
mister coffee coffee maker? I must have. But the furniture
(19:32):
was manufactured in North Carolina. The wood comes from North Carolina.
The fabric to cover your chairs and your sofas all
came from upstate New York. All the kitchen account all
the kitchen appliances, all your blender. If you grew up
in America post World War Two, the blender and the
all the bakery things, and all the toaster ovens and
(19:54):
toasters that you had were Hamilton Beach out of Wisconsin.
Hamilton was the engineer and Beach was the salesman, or
maybe it was the other way around. But they were
high quality appliances and they were in everybody's house and
everybody had a blender and a toaster. And we manufactured
them in the United States, and they were high quality
and they lasted forever. Right, people gave them as gifts
(20:20):
for Christmas. Then you get into the garage, go look
in your tool Go look at your father's toolbox. They
were all craftsmen tools. They were all manufactured in Cincinnati.
They were high quality. I have a screwdriver set that
my grandfather gave to me when I think I was
it may have been my fifth birthday. I still have it.
(20:43):
It was made in America. It's high quality. At all
the tools that you had in the garage, in your toolbox,
they were all high quality tools that were made in America.
Now they're junk and they're all made in China. We
used to make tools. We used to make the thermostat
on your wall. Right, I love the thermostat story. So
(21:07):
in World War Two, a company called Honeywell manufactured They
were in the radar business, frankly, and they were helping
guide our ships at sea. And then the war ended
and the folks at Honeywell said, what are we going
to do? I mean, we make stuff for war, how
(21:27):
do we make stuff for peace? And they sat down
and figured how to retool their factory. And you know what,
They made thermostats. And there is a Honeywell thermostat on
every house in America from nineteen fifty to nineteen seventy eight.
It's that little circle gold thermostat that you remember. It's
(21:47):
a circle and it's got like a clear little with
a rough edge, and your grandmother would set the temperature. Yeah,
that's a Honeywell thermostat. That corporation existed in World War
two and then they decided to retour. Well that was
made in America. That'sn't that piece of engineering, by the way,
and a piece of art, I would add, But you
go through the house and think back when you were
(22:09):
a kid, the level of quality that existed. And should
something break, guess what you called the guy. And a
guy came with a truck and he had parts on
the truck and they swapped it out and it continued
to work for another twenty years. So when you go
(22:33):
to Costco. Now, I was just at Costco and I'm
amazed at how inexpensive these flat screen TVs are. They
really have come down in price. So there was a
because my boys they put together their Christmas money and
they bought an updated flats I guess the flat screens
for gaming are better than the flat screen you used
(22:56):
to just watch TV that has to be more detailed.
So they wanted to get an updated flat screen TV.
And uh, you know, like eight ninety nine for a
flat and it's huge. It's like sixty inches or something.
I mean, I don't even know how you watch something
that big. Nevertheless, think that now that's made in China. Okay,
it's nine hundred dollars. Think about what a flat screen
(23:19):
TV is, right, reduce it down to its basic elements.
What do you have, Well, you grind it up into dust,
flat screen dust. You have plastic, glass, some copper, a
couple of other elements. You probably have four bucks four
to eight dollars worth of raw materials. Okay. The difference
(23:44):
between that eight dollars in raw materials and the eight
hundred dollars that the TV retails for, that difference represented
the American manufacturing economy, and that manufacturing economy employed tens
(24:04):
of thousands of Americans to put televisions in every house
in America. RCA, Zenith, Emerson, fill it all kinds of brands.
And that's just in television. Now the television has changed.
It's not this great big cathode ray two box. It's
now a flat screen. But we certainly could manufacture it
here in the United States. We have plastic, we have glass, right,
(24:28):
we have all the raw materials. We have steel, we
have rubber, we have copper, and we have mines in
the United States, and we have lumber yards in the
United States, and we have steel mills in Birmingham, Alabama.
We have everything to make all the stuff that we use,
and we could be making it here in the United States,
(24:50):
and it would help support the American manufacturing economy. Because
you cannot just have a you can't have a growing
prosperous economy doing each other's laundry. Somebody has to take
raw materials and make something out of it. Where the
raw materials represent four dollars and the finished product represents
(25:10):
eight hundred dollars. That's the magic. And right now that
magic is going on in China. And we're bringing in
all this plastic craft from China duty free while the
Americans dry to work in the Midwest. It's not a
recipe for success. The good news is I have the
(25:31):
recipe for success. Eight seven seven three seven seven forty
three seventy three. Lou Penrose sitting in for Jesse Kelly
on The Jesse Kelly Show. Fighting for Your Freedom every Day,
The Jesse Kelly Show, The Jesse Kelly Show. Lou Penrose
sitting in for Jesse Kelly eight seven seven three seven
(25:53):
seven forty three seventy three. As we head into the
big holiday weekend, Hey, if you're going to celebrate, check
your sandwich meat India where you from? Uh, let's see here.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
This is the largest listeria outbreak since twenty eleven. Bors
had recalled seven point two million pounds of Deli meat,
several kinds of ham, baloney, bacon, and sausage after samples
of unopened products tested positive for the bacteria that causes listeriosis.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Yeah, that's not good. That's a bad bacteria. You don't
want that. And it was in sealed container, you know,
sealed meat. What are you saying there? Baloney? It's everything
I think it's everything that I eat of.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
Unopened products tested positive for the bacteria. Several kinds of ham, baloney, bacon,
and sausage after samples.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Yeah, ham blooney, it's everything, salami, gaba ghoul. They got
the whole Uh, they got my entire sandwich drawer. And
the thing is, they say that if you've had it,
if you have any boars head what we call coal
cuts or deli meats, it's not enough to just toss it.
(27:06):
You've got to like steam clean your entire refrigerator.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
If you have bors had deli meat in your fridge.
Still it's not enough to just throw away the products.
Health officials say you need to clean your refrigerator as
listeria can grow inside. Say you made a sandwich and
then touched other things in the fridge. That's really important.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
Right, really important. And I can't imagine where that disease
would be in my house after my boys made themselves
a turkey and cheese, like I think they do, touch
other things and we'd get all over the house. So
the number of cases now of contaminated meat from boar's head.
Speaker 4 (27:47):
The outbreak started in late May and at the end
of July, over seven million pounds of deli meat were recalled.
What started as just a recall on liverwurst expanded to
include more than seventy bores had products, including ham, beef,
and salami, all made at the company's plant in Virginia.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
So now the Department of Agriculture has checked the boar's
Head plant in Virginia and they found other problems there.
So yeah, it started out with just live a worst
and it turns out that all the meats, like everything
that place was really problematic. And according to the recall,
it all it's all for bores Head stuff sold up
(28:31):
until July thirty first, and I'm thinking you should be
through that by now, right. I mean, I certainly have
been through a number of half pounds of turkey since
July thirty first, But check the dates on the stuff
and toss it if it's boor's head and it was
purchased before the thirty first of July. But are you
(28:53):
ready for this? If you do make yourself a sandwich
with some ham and cheese that was contaminating, they tell
us that listeria can hit you ten weeks after, so
you could eat the sandwich in July and get sick.
In September. That's amazing, that's absolutely incredible. Eight seven seven
(29:17):
three seven seven forty three seventy three. Cook yourself a
hamburger and stay away from the cool coats just until
this thing flushes out. Let us go to Larry in Pennsylvania. Larry,
you're on the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 5 (29:29):
All right, lou And the Democratic Party has been rebuilt
into a left wing, lunatic party because of the sixty
five Immigration Act, illegal immigration, refugee clown programs, and visa violators.
I mean, just look at it. This candidate for the
Democrats has led in ten million illegals to murder Americans,
rape American women, and she's neck and neck in the polls. Well,
(29:51):
that's the reason why they rebuilt the party into a
left wing party. A lot of them are on welfare,
food stamps. Inflation doesn't mean nothing to them, and they
want to bring in millions and millions of more people
in here. And unfortunately, we've also sent out a manufacturing
base overseas. We sent it out to China. Now here's
the problem thirty years from now when China wants to
fight us, and we're really in a hell hole position
(30:13):
of what are we gonna do. It was our trade
programs that rebuilt China, turned those serial killers into billion
and trillionaires. Now you want our eighteen year old American
boys to fight them, I think not, baby. Go if
you can't e go, go if you can't go, Larry.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
I appreciate the call, and I don't disagree with the
idea of study we did. There's no question that American
trade policy moved our factories and our manufacturing to Southeast Asia,
no question about it. Why I will never understand. But
the good news is this is reversible. This is you
(30:51):
can untangle this not this is not that hard. We
will always use all the stuff we buy from China.
Everything that in your house used to be made in
the United States and can still be made in the
United States. Almost all of the raw materials exist under
our feet here in the United States. The infrastructure to
(31:11):
manufacture it, to bring it from the raw material places
to the factory towns and then to the major cities
is all laid. It's all there. The railways are all there,
and the roadways are all there. We still have trucks.
It's all good. It's ready to go. It's calling us
the American manufacturing economy is calling us. All we need
(31:36):
to do is answer the call, and it provides good
jobs for Americans. Right, you don't need a four year
degree to go work at a factory. But if you
go to work for a factory, guess what. You start
out on the line, and then you move up and
you become a supervisor, and then you become a shift
to leader, and then the foreman retires and everybody moves up,
(31:59):
and they all move up in their ready to pay.
It's a working system. And not everybody in America wants
to be a rocket scientist. Some Americans just want to
go to work at a good job that pays a
fair wage. Most of the problems we have in America
today are not because people are unemployed. It's because they're underemployed.
(32:22):
They're not inspired by their job. They go and they
schlep at work, and because they don't feel like they're
getting paid enough, and they're not right in real dollars,
your grandfather took home a heartier paycheck. Your father took
home a heartier paycheck than you are. Even though the
minimum wage is constantly rising and you know wages are
(32:43):
going up, Inflation is eating up all that wage growth,
so you're actually behind, and you feel it. We all do.
So that's why having an option like manufacturing is a
good thing, because we'll always needed. It'll always be there.
The help wanted signs Hiring today was the sign out
(33:06):
front of every factory in America from nineteen forty eight
to nineteen seventy eight. Hiring today. Anybody could get a job,
and many people did and lived wonderful quality lives. We
cannot have a prosperous, growing, expanding economy that would provide
us with the quality of life in America that we
(33:28):
deserve and we want simply doing each other's laundry and
making each other's beds. So let's get busy. Let's bring
the jobs back, let's fire up the factories, let's put
Americans back to work, and let's make things here in America.
There'll be higher quality. We'll be employing Americans. All the
money circulates in our own country. We keep the plastic
(33:52):
craft from China out of our country and out of
the city dump and out of the landfills. It's good
from Mother Earth. It's good for Americans, and it's the
way to go. And that's my story and I'm sticking
to it. Have yourselves a fantastic holiday weekend. Jesse Kelly
will be back on Tuesday. Lou Penrose sitting in for
Jesse Kelly on The Jesse Kelly Show

Good to be with you, coming to you live from
San Diego. That's my home talk radio station. I broadcast
weeknights on Cogo out of San Diego, and happy to
sit in for Jesse tonight. As we head into the
(00:36):
big Labor Day holiday weekend, the official last hurrah of summer,
my boys are already back to school. I have three
to one in elementary school, one in middle school, one
in high school. So I got it all covered and
well today this was the last day of the first
full week, so they had like a half week and
(00:58):
they're exhausted. So they're looking forward to the three day weekend,
and I hope you are too. Eight seven seven three
seven seven forty three seventy three. I was thinking a
little bit about Labor Day. I don't even know is
there going to be a presidential proclamation? Usually the president
will say something. The President hasn't been in the White
House for quite some time, so nobody knows who's running
(01:20):
the country. But I did see that they adjusted the
unemployment numbers. The Labor Department comes out with numbers and
then they adjust them. And you may have heard the
story they they were off by eight hundred thousand jobs.
And I was looking at the categories and the areas
(01:41):
that are showing growth, even though unemployment is higher than
they said it was. Was like, the two biggest categories
were service workers and government employees, and those are that's
number one, number two by far, Like the third is
(02:03):
way down. You're getting into construction. But for the most part,
the only area of growth is working for the government,
and that could be state, federal, or local government and
working in the service economy. And that's a bad thing.
(02:24):
There's nothing wrong with service work. I've done it. I've
done front desk management at hotels. I have been a
buser in a restaurant. I worked at Burger King. I've
done it, so there's nothing wrong with it. It's honest work.
It's hard work. But you can't as a country run
a complete economy having everybody do each other's laundry. And
(02:46):
I think going into the Labor Day weekend, this is
a good time to start talking about this, and I
want you to think about it over the weekend, because
we really need to change the trajectory we cannot canntinue
to have the largest area of growth government workers. So
back in the day, we had a fantastic economy that
(03:10):
was robust. The post World War II American economy was spectacular.
It was three legs of a stool. You had professional work.
Professional work is doctor, lawyer, businessman, accountant, engineer. You had
(03:31):
service work. Those are the people that make your beds
in the hotels, do your laundry, and make you a martini.
And then you have this third category called manufacturing. These
are people that go to work at a factory every day,
take raw materials steel or wood or iron, and turn
(03:52):
those raw materials into a product that then retails for
sale and you buy it. And for the most part,
through the fifties and sixties and most of the seventies,
the amount of people that worked in the manufacturing sector
(04:14):
dwarfed the amount of people that worked in the professional
sector or the service sector. Like most people that worked
either worked in manufacturing or supported manufacturing work. And everything
in your house, and I mean everything in your house
(04:35):
was made in America by an American worker at an
American factory, making really good money, by the way, and
that supported an economy that grew to become a powerhouse
on planet Earth. It wasn't just the fact that much
(04:59):
of the world was damaged as a result of World
War Two. It was some of that Europe was damaged,
and the Soviet Union was damaged, and nobody really knows
the extent of the damage in Asia and in China,
and we all know what happened in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
But it wasn't just that. It was because the United
States got down to business after the war was over.
(05:20):
Nobody wanted war, and we went ahead and built ourselves
a wonderful little country by putting everybody to work manufacturing
things for ourselves to sell to each other. Think about it,
everything in your house, all your appliances, your washers and dryers,
and your refrigerators and stoves and ranges and count kitchen
(05:44):
counter appliances, all the electronics, all your entertainment in the house,
the air conditioning unit, the heating unit, all the plumbing,
all the electrical appliances, all the lighting fixtures, all the
furniture in your house, and to a large extent, most
of your clothing all made in America at American factories
(06:09):
by Americans. And they would take raw materials and go
to work and turn it into something. They would take
steel and turn it into a washing machine. They would
take glass and plastics and copper and turn it into
a television or a stereo. If you had a sofa
(06:29):
or a love seat or a chair in the seventies
and eighties in the United States, the lumber came from
North Carolina and the fabric came from upstate New York.
If you had a washing machine, it was either General
Electric or Westinghouse. It was manufactured in the Midwest. Right
(06:51):
If you had electronics, you had RCA or Zenith Emerson.
They were all manufactured in the United States. The raw
materials were all mined, and they came from mines and
mills in the United States. And we had rail systems
that brought all the raw materials from where the raw
materials came from to the factory towns, and then those
(07:15):
rail systems distributed all the finished goods to all the
major cities all over the United States. And then when
you went out to go buy a television or an oven,
or a refrigerator or car or sofa, you were paying
the salary of an American and that kept an American
(07:36):
employed because at the end of the day, you're gonna
need a new blender. You're gonna need a new vacuum cleaner.
If you grew up like I grew up in the
seventies and eighties, your mother had either a Hoover vacuum
cleaner or an Electrolux. If it was Hoover, it was
manufactured in Pennsylvania. If it was Electrolux, it was manufactured
(07:56):
in Connecticut. Now you go go and buy some cheapy
plastic made in China, piece of crap. It's no good, right.
We closed down all the American factories, we shipped all
the jobs overseas, we fired all the American workers, and
now we bring in plastic crap from China. So this
(08:18):
labor day, let it be the labor day where we
start thinking about how do we change that because it
wasn't that long ago. It's not like we have to
go back to ancient times. It was just about forty
years ago when we decided to ship all the jobs
to China, so we could certainly reverse course. We still
(08:39):
need washers and dryers and stoves and ovens and kitchen
counter appliances. We still need all those things. We should
be employing Americans to do them. We have all the
raw materials here in the United States, and good news,
all the railway lines are still there and the rail
spur goes right up to the loading dock. We have
(09:00):
the infrastructure, it's all sitting there ready to roll. And
most of the factories are still They drive through factory
towns throughout the Midwest and all across the United States.
It's dilapidated, but it's still there. The parking lot's still there,
and the foundation is still there. So we could get
going right away, and it would make all the sense
in the world and strengthen our economy for the next generation.

The Jesse Kelly Show. Loup Penrose sitting in for Jesse Kelly.
Good to be with you on a Friday, eight seven
seven three seven seven forty three seventy three, talking a
little bit about the labor day, weekend and work in America.
It is great that people are working. I think that
the service economy is fantastic, And of course it's great
(09:57):
to be a doctor or a lawyer, but we need
to have manu facturing in order for this economy to work.
We need to attract manufacturing. We need to bring manufacturing back.
We need to fire up the factories and put Americans
to work making our stuff. Because even as technology expands,
and even as your cell phone gets more and more advanced,
(10:20):
and even as amazing as it is that I can
screw in a light bulb and with my phone dim it,
that's all fascinating, at the end of the day, you're
going to need a vacuum cleaner. You're going to need
a refrigerator, right the technology of your oven hasn't changed
all that much. And we used to make refrigerators and
(10:44):
ovens and stoves and vacuum cleaners here in the United States,
and they were good paying jobs and they were high
quality stuff. That's the part that really kills me. It
really bothers me that not only did we fire all
the Americans, ship all the jobs to China, bring in
(11:05):
all these products duty free and their plastic pieces of crap,
but we're not even ahead of the game because the
price is the same, like adjusted for inflation. Your grandmother
paid the same for her general electric stove that you're
(11:26):
paying for your general electric stove. Whatever the make is.
I bought, Oh my gosh, I bought my third. I've
been living in my house for let's see. The baby
is eleven. I know we still call him the baby,
but he's eleven. So my wife was due within when
(11:47):
we moved in. I remember that because she couldn't lift anything.
So I've been living in my house eleven years. I
have been through three refrigerators. Three. Do you ever remember
your grandparents get another refrigerator? Do you ever remember their
refrigerator breaking down? Ever? Like they were beasts, they'd last forever.
(12:10):
Now you go in and buy an appliance, and what's
the first thing they want to sell you. They come
chasing after you for what that's right? For the extended warranty?
Did your grandfather have an extended warranty on his appliances? Now?
But now they got to sell you the extended warranty
because they know it's a piece of crap from China
and it's going to break down in three years and
the warranty's not going to cover it. Eight seven seven
(12:33):
three seven seven forty three seventy three. So if we
brought the jobs back and manufactured all these things in
the United States, we would accomplish a whole lot of things.
We'd be putting Americans to work at factory jobs that
will always be there. Factory jobs are recession proof, right,
it doesn't matter what's happening in the economy. At some point,
(12:55):
you will need new breaks. At some point, you will
need a new refrigerator. Some point you'll need a new
washer dry I mean, you know those things will go
out at some point you'll need a new one. Or
a new couple will get married and they're gonna buy
a house and they're gonna populate the house with all
these things. The cycle, that cycle will always continue, so
(13:15):
it'll you'll always need those things, so they'll always be
work to be done. It's good paying work. People aspire.
I mean, that's a it's a it's an honest day's work, right,
People like, Oh, you see all the movies and they
pan factory work as being mindless, and you know, these
factory talents is being depressing. Not true. Throughout the Midwest,
(13:39):
people worked in factories and had wonderful lives. They went
to work at the factory and they had they had
a great job, steady job, good pay, and they came
home to a house that they owned. And by the way,
one paycheck supported the entire family. One paycheck. Only one
person had to go to work. Usually it was the husband,
(14:01):
but it doesn't have to be. Nevertheless, one paycheck supported
the entire household. And that paycheck paid for the house,
in the car and put food on the table in
all these towns throughout the United States, and there was
money left over to take everybody out to dinner on Friday,
take the missus out on the town on Saturday, and
(14:22):
there was money left over to put in the collection
plate at Sunday Services. I don't believe you that actually
happened here in the United States. For decades, a generation
of Americans grew up with that level of economic security.
And it makes sense why, because we're a nation filled
(14:43):
with people that need stuff, So why not make the
stuff that we need and sell it to ourselves. And
all that money circulates in these small towns and these
suburbs and these cities, right, and what does that money do.
That money employs the luncheonette, and it goes to support
(15:04):
the Little League team and it supports all the local
services in the local taxes. It's a marvelous process and
it was a reality, and it moved America from post
World War two into a superpower. And then we gave
it away. We literally handed the jobs over, and now
(15:26):
we importastic plastic prat from China and it breaks in
two years. If you don't buy the extent of warranty,
it all goes into the dump, into the city dump,
and then you gotta run out and buy it again.
And you think you're ahead of the game because it's
a little bit cheaper, right. I remember telling the story
to somebody about the coffee maker, about how my mother
(15:49):
for ye, I mean she's passed now, but she had
the same mister coffee coffee maker. I had to be
like thirty years and it made coffee every single day.
And I probably went through nine coffee makers from my
freshman year in college. It's kept breaking. It was a
(16:10):
piece of crap from China, and you would throw it
in the garbage and you run on out to Walmart
to get a new one because it's only nine to
ninety nine. But you multiply that by the amount that
you buy over a short period of time. I think
my mom was ahead of the game with the mister
coffee eight seven seven three seven seven forty three seventy three.
Lou Penrose sitting in for Jesse Kelly on The Jesse
(16:32):
Kelly Show. I get a lot of calls. I want
to get to your stuff. I just wanted to offer
you that Labor Day message because it's something that we
don't talk about enough, and it is this is a
simple solution. We can get into why the jobs left
in the first place. And to be perfectly honest with you,
both Republicans and Democrats are guilty of shipping those jobs
to China, so there's a lot of blame to be placed.
(16:55):
I am bored with placing blame. Let's just reverse course,
bring them back, put Americans to work, fire up the
factories and and and get in first place once again
and have good quality stuff. Loke Penrose sitting in for
Jesse Kelly on The Jesse Kelly Show. I've got on
ANIMALI sidn't mean Jesse Kelly, you're listening to the Jesse

eight seven seven three seven seven three seventy three. As
we head into the big Labor Day weekend talking about jobs,
American jobs. Let's let us go to Terry Is in
(17:44):
New York. Terry, you're on the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
A wonderful show. You've got a very good, melodious voice.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Harry's well over the airwaves.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Good to hear, good to hear.
Speaker 1 (18:00):
And I was in welding. I worked in the welding shop,
and you know, that's no big deal. I started out
as a spot welder and went, you know, get a
lot of grinding and eventually moved into the welding stuff.
And it's a wonderful, wonderful life. It's a hard life.
Those guys. You got to wonder where they You think
(18:22):
about Americans and hard workers and all that. You gotta wonder,
just gotta wonder.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Yeah, Terry, I appreciate the call. Eight seven seven three
seven seven forty three seventy three. You can do whatever
you want in America, and that's wonderful. I think this
should be the land of opportunity. I think we should
have nothing but options. We deserve it. Americans work hard.
I think that we are doing ourselves a disservice by
(18:48):
shipping manufacturing jobs overseas. It doesn't mean you have to
work at a factory, but you will always need the
stuff that's in your house. Look around your house. Everything
in your house, and I mean every single thing in
your house used to be made in America. And I
do this. If you follow me on TikTok, I think
(19:10):
it's Lou Penrose Radio. I'm pretty easy to find Lou Penrose.
I go through every item in your house and tell
you the story. Right. I told you the story about
the mister coffee coffee maker. I told you about General
Electric and the Westinghouse Corporation. Did I tell you the
mister coffee coffee maker? I must have. But the furniture
(19:32):
was manufactured in North Carolina. The wood comes from North Carolina.
The fabric to cover your chairs and your sofas all
came from upstate New York. All the kitchen account all
the kitchen appliances, all your blender. If you grew up
in America post World War Two, the blender and the
all the bakery things, and all the toaster ovens and
(19:54):
toasters that you had were Hamilton Beach out of Wisconsin.
Hamilton was the engineer and Beach was the salesman, or
maybe it was the other way around. But they were
high quality appliances and they were in everybody's house and
everybody had a blender and a toaster. And we manufactured
them in the United States, and they were high quality
and they lasted forever. Right, people gave them as gifts
(20:20):
for Christmas. Then you get into the garage, go look
in your tool Go look at your father's toolbox. They
were all craftsmen tools. They were all manufactured in Cincinnati.
They were high quality. I have a screwdriver set that
my grandfather gave to me when I think I was
it may have been my fifth birthday. I still have it.
(20:43):
It was made in America. It's high quality. At all
the tools that you had in the garage, in your toolbox,
they were all high quality tools that were made in America.
Now they're junk and they're all made in China. We
used to make tools. We used to make the thermostat
on your wall. Right, I love the thermostat story. So
(21:07):
in World War Two, a company called Honeywell manufactured They
were in the radar business, frankly, and they were helping
guide our ships at sea. And then the war ended
and the folks at Honeywell said, what are we going
to do? I mean, we make stuff for war, how
(21:27):
do we make stuff for peace? And they sat down
and figured how to retool their factory. And you know what,
They made thermostats. And there is a Honeywell thermostat on
every house in America from nineteen fifty to nineteen seventy eight.
It's that little circle gold thermostat that you remember. It's
(21:47):
a circle and it's got like a clear little with
a rough edge, and your grandmother would set the temperature. Yeah,
that's a Honeywell thermostat. That corporation existed in World War
two and then they decided to retour. Well that was
made in America. That'sn't that piece of engineering, by the way,
and a piece of art, I would add, But you
go through the house and think back when you were
(22:09):
a kid, the level of quality that existed. And should
something break, guess what you called the guy. And a
guy came with a truck and he had parts on
the truck and they swapped it out and it continued
to work for another twenty years. So when you go
(22:33):
to Costco. Now, I was just at Costco and I'm
amazed at how inexpensive these flat screen TVs are. They
really have come down in price. So there was a
because my boys they put together their Christmas money and
they bought an updated flats I guess the flat screens
for gaming are better than the flat screen you used
(22:56):
to just watch TV that has to be more detailed.
So they wanted to get an updated flat screen TV.
And uh, you know, like eight ninety nine for a
flat and it's huge. It's like sixty inches or something.
I mean, I don't even know how you watch something
that big. Nevertheless, think that now that's made in China. Okay,
it's nine hundred dollars. Think about what a flat screen
(23:19):
TV is, right, reduce it down to its basic elements.
What do you have, Well, you grind it up into dust,
flat screen dust. You have plastic, glass, some copper, a
couple of other elements. You probably have four bucks four
to eight dollars worth of raw materials. Okay. The difference
(23:44):
between that eight dollars in raw materials and the eight
hundred dollars that the TV retails for, that difference represented
the American manufacturing economy, and that manufacturing economy employed tens
(24:04):
of thousands of Americans to put televisions in every house
in America. RCA, Zenith, Emerson, fill it all kinds of brands.
And that's just in television. Now the television has changed.
It's not this great big cathode ray two box. It's
now a flat screen. But we certainly could manufacture it
here in the United States. We have plastic, we have glass, right,
(24:28):
we have all the raw materials. We have steel, we
have rubber, we have copper, and we have mines in
the United States, and we have lumber yards in the
United States, and we have steel mills in Birmingham, Alabama.
We have everything to make all the stuff that we use,
and we could be making it here in the United States,
(24:50):
and it would help support the American manufacturing economy. Because
you cannot just have a you can't have a growing
prosperous economy doing each other's laundry. Somebody has to take
raw materials and make something out of it. Where the
raw materials represent four dollars and the finished product represents
(25:10):
eight hundred dollars. That's the magic. And right now that
magic is going on in China. And we're bringing in
all this plastic craft from China duty free while the
Americans dry to work in the Midwest. It's not a
recipe for success. The good news is I have the
(25:31):
recipe for success. Eight seven seven three seven seven forty

big holiday weekend, Hey, if you're going to celebrate, check
your sandwich meat India where you from? Uh, let's see here.
Speaker 3 (26:06):
This is the largest listeria outbreak since twenty eleven. Bors
had recalled seven point two million pounds of Deli meat,
several kinds of ham, baloney, bacon, and sausage after samples
of unopened products tested positive for the bacteria that causes listeriosis.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Yeah, that's not good. That's a bad bacteria. You don't
want that. And it was in sealed container, you know,
sealed meat. What are you saying there? Baloney? It's everything
I think it's everything that I eat of.
Speaker 3 (26:36):
Unopened products tested positive for the bacteria. Several kinds of ham, baloney, bacon,
and sausage after samples.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Yeah, ham blooney, it's everything, salami, gaba ghoul. They got
the whole Uh, they got my entire sandwich drawer. And
the thing is, they say that if you've had it,
if you have any boars head what we call coal
cuts or deli meats, it's not enough to just toss it.
(27:06):
You've got to like steam clean your entire refrigerator.
Speaker 4 (27:08):
If you have bors had deli meat in your fridge.
Still it's not enough to just throw away the products.
Health officials say you need to clean your refrigerator as
listeria can grow inside. Say you made a sandwich and
then touched other things in the fridge. That's really important.
Speaker 2 (27:23):
Right, really important. And I can't imagine where that disease
would be in my house after my boys made themselves
a turkey and cheese, like I think they do, touch
other things and we'd get all over the house. So
the number of cases now of contaminated meat from boar's head.
Speaker 4 (27:47):
The outbreak started in late May and at the end
of July, over seven million pounds of deli meat were recalled.
What started as just a recall on liverwurst expanded to
include more than seventy bores had products, including ham, beef,
and salami, all made at the company's plant in Virginia.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
So now the Department of Agriculture has checked the boar's
Head plant in Virginia and they found other problems there.
So yeah, it started out with just live a worst
and it turns out that all the meats, like everything
that place was really problematic. And according to the recall,
it all it's all for bores Head stuff sold up
(28:31):
until July thirty first, and I'm thinking you should be
through that by now, right. I mean, I certainly have
been through a number of half pounds of turkey since
July thirty first, But check the dates on the stuff
and toss it if it's boor's head and it was
purchased before the thirty first of July. But are you
(28:53):
ready for this? If you do make yourself a sandwich
with some ham and cheese that was contaminating, they tell
us that listeria can hit you ten weeks after, so
you could eat the sandwich in July and get sick.
In September. That's amazing, that's absolutely incredible. Eight seven seven
(29:17):
three seven seven forty three seventy three. Cook yourself a
hamburger and stay away from the cool coats just until
this thing flushes out. Let us go to Larry in Pennsylvania. Larry,
you're on the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 5 (29:29):
All right, lou And the Democratic Party has been rebuilt
into a left wing, lunatic party because of the sixty
five Immigration Act, illegal immigration, refugee clown programs, and visa violators.
I mean, just look at it. This candidate for the
Democrats has led in ten million illegals to murder Americans,
rape American women, and she's neck and neck in the polls. Well,
(29:51):
that's the reason why they rebuilt the party into a
left wing party. A lot of them are on welfare,
food stamps. Inflation doesn't mean nothing to them, and they
want to bring in millions and millions of more people
in here. And unfortunately, we've also sent out a manufacturing
base overseas. We sent it out to China. Now here's
the problem thirty years from now when China wants to
fight us, and we're really in a hell hole position
(30:13):
of what are we gonna do. It was our trade
programs that rebuilt China, turned those serial killers into billion
and trillionaires. Now you want our eighteen year old American
boys to fight them, I think not, baby. Go if
you can't e go, go if you can't go, Larry.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
I appreciate the call, and I don't disagree with the
idea of study we did. There's no question that American
trade policy moved our factories and our manufacturing to Southeast Asia,
no question about it. Why I will never understand. But
the good news is this is reversible. This is you
(30:51):
can untangle this not this is not that hard. We
will always use all the stuff we buy from China.
Everything that in your house used to be made in
the United States and can still be made in the
United States. Almost all of the raw materials exist under
our feet here in the United States. The infrastructure to
(31:11):
manufacture it, to bring it from the raw material places
to the factory towns and then to the major cities
is all laid. It's all there. The railways are all there,
and the roadways are all there. We still have trucks.
It's all good. It's ready to go. It's calling us
the American manufacturing economy is calling us. All we need
(31:36):
to do is answer the call, and it provides good
jobs for Americans. Right, you don't need a four year
degree to go work at a factory. But if you
go to work for a factory, guess what. You start
out on the line, and then you move up and
you become a supervisor, and then you become a shift
to leader, and then the foreman retires and everybody moves up,
(31:59):
and they all move up in their ready to pay.
It's a working system. And not everybody in America wants
to be a rocket scientist. Some Americans just want to
go to work at a good job that pays a
fair wage. Most of the problems we have in America
today are not because people are unemployed. It's because they're underemployed.
(32:22):
They're not inspired by their job. They go and they
schlep at work, and because they don't feel like they're
getting paid enough, and they're not right in real dollars,
your grandfather took home a heartier paycheck. Your father took
home a heartier paycheck than you are. Even though the
minimum wage is constantly rising and you know wages are
(32:43):
going up, Inflation is eating up all that wage growth,
so you're actually behind, and you feel it. We all do.
So that's why having an option like manufacturing is a
good thing, because we'll always needed. It'll always be there.
The help wanted signs Hiring today was the sign out
(33:06):
front of every factory in America from nineteen forty eight
to nineteen seventy eight. Hiring today. Anybody could get a job,
and many people did and lived wonderful quality lives. We
cannot have a prosperous, growing, expanding economy that would provide
us with the quality of life in America that we
(33:28):
deserve and we want simply doing each other's laundry and
making each other's beds. So let's get busy. Let's bring
the jobs back, let's fire up the factories, let's put
Americans back to work, and let's make things here in America.
There'll be higher quality. We'll be employing Americans. All the
money circulates in our own country. We keep the plastic
(33:52):
craft from China out of our country and out of
the city dump and out of the landfills. It's good
from Mother Earth. It's good for Americans, and it's the
way to go. And that's my story and I'm sticking
to it. Have yourselves a fantastic holiday weekend. Jesse Kelly
will be back on Tuesday. Lou Penrose sitting in for
