My gut sense that we're all right. On the south
limp six.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
Ten, Let's get on the south Lamb six ten eastbound
before forty five at golf Gate. Boy, they met a
light of changes to Golf Gate. Remember when that was
a mall eastbound. That's out of the way. They've cleared
some kind of mishap. Looks like everybody's okay, and just
checking around six to ten bridge, looks good.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
There we go Sherman Bridge and six ten North.

Speaker 3 (01:07):
We're not loopy at the squeeze yet at forty five,
so we're good shaped there and going down to uptown
from two ninety we rock and going up to uptown
from Ireland. We're in good shape either way, so so far,
starting out on a good start. Let's do your chip
channel bridges at five to ten. We got Terry back too.
I'm in the Generator Supercenter dot Com traffic Center.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
From r KTRH top tax Defenders, twenty four hour weather center.
Mostly sunny today with the high temperature right about ninety four.
As you just heard, Terry's back. We'll talk to her
in about nine minutes. Right now, seventy six at your
official severe weather station, News Radio seven forty KTRH. It's
time now for the news. Here's Cliff Sanders, Thank you, Jimmy.
Good morning everyone. It's five oh one on KTRH. Our

(01:49):
top story.

Speaker 4 (01:49):
We're going in. I didn't say when we're going in.

Speaker 5 (01:52):
President Trump promising to crack down on out of control
violent crime in Chicago after eight people were killed with
more than fifty others shot over Labor Day week and
an obligation.

Speaker 4 (02:02):
This isn't a political thing. I have an obligation.

Speaker 5 (02:05):
Trump says he will make Chicago as safe as he
made d C. So the President said he'd like to
work with the Democrat governor of Illinois on this. That's
not going to happen.

Speaker 6 (02:16):
No, I will not call the President asking him to
send troops to Chicago.

Speaker 5 (02:21):
I've made that clear already. And that's JB. Pritzker saying
that the Texas National Guard is already staging for this operation.
Here at home, the Army vet charged with murder for
shooting an eleven year old boy playing ding Dong ditch
could be facing even more trouble.

Speaker 7 (02:38):
There's a real possibility that we upgrade this to capital
murder based on the age of the victim.

Speaker 5 (02:45):
Aris County d A. Shawn Tier telling our TV partner
Channel Too that Gonzala Leone was lying in wait for
the kids. He'll be requesting a million dollars bond today
five h three on KTRH. More than thirty three thousand
pages of records related to Jeffrey Epstein were released yesterday
afternoon by the House Oversight Committee.

Speaker 8 (03:05):
We want to bring justice to every single person who
is involved in the Epstein evils of the cover up
thereof House.

Speaker 5 (03:12):
Speaker Mike Johnson.

Speaker 9 (03:13):
There.

Speaker 5 (03:13):
The release, by the way, fills a one minute gap
in the earlier surveillance of Epstein's jail cell on the
night he ostensibly killed himself six years ago. Meantime, Kentucky
Republican Thomas Massey California Democrat Rocana they will hold a
news conference today with some of Epstein's victims. The two
are trying to force a House vote to release all

(03:35):
of the Epstein files. This all comes as Congress return
to work yesterday, facing, amongst other things, a potential government
shut down at the end of the month.

Speaker 10 (03:45):
One of their top priorities will be legislation to support
the Big Beautiful Bill.

Speaker 11 (03:49):
But one Big Beautiful Bill kind of creates a concrete
version of the agenda for President Trump and the Republican
Party real funding, power, lives, and appropriations.

Speaker 10 (03:58):
Political analyst fled Davidick says, while they work on appropriations bills,
they'll also have to follow up on investigations.

Speaker 9 (04:04):
We have these high profile inquiries bamed to President Biden's
capacity during his presidency, the Russia probe.

Speaker 10 (04:10):
He says, the GOP Caucus will have to carefully balance
those priorities over the next few months. Ethan Buchanan News
Radio seven forty KTRH.

Speaker 5 (04:18):
Thank you, Ethan, five h four Now and what would
be a first? President Trump has floated the idea of
throwing a GOP convention before next year's midterms. RNC committeeman
doctor Robin Armstrong tells KTRHID could provide a big boost.

Speaker 12 (04:32):
If we are able to excite our base, excite conservatives,
if we're able to excite Republicans to get out and
vote in these midterm elections. I think it's a good thing.
I think it'll be positive.

Speaker 5 (04:42):
Democrats, who stopped holding these midterm conventions back in the
mid eighties are also considering having a convention next year.
The Trump administration will head to the US Supreme Court
as early as today after a ruling last week declaring
most of the president's tariffs illegal.

Speaker 13 (05:00):
I'm the non lawyer, but it seems to me the
president's taraff plan has been well received through a series
of brilliant deals with allies all around the world who
understand the.

Speaker 1 (05:11):
Need for a new global trading system.

Speaker 5 (05:14):
Fox Business is Larry Cudlow. There. Overnight trading is flat
across the board. Oil futures are trading at sixty four
to thirty nine a barrel, so that's a little bit down.
Gasoline price is dropping two cents overnight across housed into
two dollars in sixty eight cents a barrel. Another impact
of the Joe Biden economy that Trump is trying to fix,

(05:35):
the middle class has gone from secure just squeezed.

Speaker 14 (05:38):
It began with jobs being shipped overseas and now combined
with artificial intelligence, the lower half of the middle class
is feeling strapped for cash. According to our recent Wall
Street Journal article, and lawyer Andy Trusevitch says, a storm
of job changes is thundering in the distance.

Speaker 6 (05:54):
It's not years from now, it's your decades from now.
It's really a year, two years, three years.

Speaker 14 (06:01):
Most bringing back overseas jobs, such as President Trump is
attempting as a start in remedying this alarming situation, he says.
Mike Shiloh News Radio seven forty ktright.

Speaker 5 (06:13):
Thank you, Michael. And the long standing rule that people
who have retirement savings should never spend more than four
percent of it in any one year is now changing.
Some prominent financial managers now say the number is four
point seven percent. Wealth manager Steve Cotton says, the reality
is it's flexible.

Speaker 15 (06:30):
I think as long as you stay under four point
seven it is going to be sustainable in most cases,
but really depends on your individual circumstances, and that's kind
of on a case by case basis.

Speaker 5 (06:42):
It's now five oh six. The Astros lose to the
Yankee seven to one. Series continues tonight coverage at six
on Sports Talk seven ninety, the game at seven on
seven ninety and KGRH. The stro is still up by
three in the Al West, and after losing their season opener,
Texas Longhorns dropped to number seven in the latest EP
Top twenty five. Ohio State now number one. The Aggies

(07:04):
are nineteenth Texas Tech at twenty four. I'm Cliff Saunders
on Houston's News Weather in traffic station news Radio seven
forty ktrh.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
I live in Conrad, I live in Deer Park.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
Next on the ten You're Reliable forecast on seven forty ktrh.

Speaker 1 (07:23):
Five O WADO time here in Houston's morning News. All Right,
gut feelings, how many of your decisions life were made
on a gut feeling versus a rational discussion of well,
here are the pros and here are the cons. Oh,
the hell with this, I'm going with my gut. It

(07:46):
turns out that about seventy percent of us rely on
our gut feeling when we make a big decision. At
the end of the day, you can pro or con
something to death. You know, before we decided to move
to Houston, we had a pro and a con list.
Here here's the pros, here's the cons. You know, on
the pro list, you know, brand new city, new opportunity.
On the con list, leaving friends behind where you were

(08:09):
already living. You know, you could go on and on
and on about making a rational decision. At the end
of the day, the gut feeling went out. My gut said,
going to Houston's the right thing to do. Let's do it.
It's an adventure, let's do it. So guess my gut
feeling worked out. Okay. I guess it doesn't always work out. Okay,

(08:31):
But but I think it's an interesting question to ponder.
Do you carefully weigh the pros and cons when you
make a big decision, or do you just go with
your gut. In choosing a job, thirty two percent have
picked a job based strictly on our gut feeling. Even
if the pros the cons rather outweighed the pros, you
still went with your gut Where to move twenty six percent,

(08:54):
gut feeling breaking up with somebody twenty six percent, gut
feeling quitting a job or switching careers twenty four percent.
Gut feeling getting a pet twenty one percent. Man, I
don't know how many pet decisions I'd made based on
a gut feeling. A dog in about five catsworth, What
to invest money in twenty percent, gut feeling getting married

(09:16):
twenty percent, twenty percent, yep, yeah, I just I'm going
with it nineteen percent, going on a first date, buying
a home eighteen percent, decide to go back to school
thirteen percent, and so on and so on. So here's
my question of today. To participate, you go to the
iHeart radio app KTRH make us number one hundred, preset please,

(09:39):
and you get thirty seconds to talk when you hit
the talkback button the little microphone there. First, name where
you're calling from, and decisions that you've made based on
a gut feeling, both good and bad. You could share
a good good decision you made based almost totally on
a gut feeling, or maybe a bad decision based on
a gut feeling. Again, the iHeart radio app KTRH. Hit
the talkback button, you get up a thirty seconds. First

(10:01):
thing where you're calling from, and your your reaction to
the gut reaction. Five ten time for trafficking whether together,
Terrry cover your ears? How many of your marriages were
based on a gut feeling? Well, you know it really wasn't.

Speaker 3 (10:12):
My gut that was doing the thinking a lot of situations.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
You know, Terry's got her ears cover. Explain no more.
I understand some Jack Daniels in.

Speaker 16 (10:21):
There in one head operations at the time. I understand
how that work. You got Saturday night in Baytown. Let's
hit some you know what, I want to go to
the Golden Triangle here. We've got a lot of listeners.

Speaker 3 (10:32):
I don't think we realized from the Golden Triangle, bomat
what's up? Let's go I ten after Washington Avenue, you
take that exit ramp to go to poor Darthurn. Those
of you trying to hit the refineries, and there's something
smudging up on that ramp. Now you could see that
a lot better than I can so heck yep, but
Beaumont give me a call seven one three two one
two tips. You can hit us on the free iHeartRadio app.

Fantastic Get houston's, news weather and.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
Traffic HOW i listen to ktr knstead Late also against
the wind at least the wind power is The drop,
administration but they're not totally against. It they just don't
believe that we should be spending hundreds of millions of
dollars to subsidize it and to, force through tax abatements
and other, methods force wind upon. Anybody you, know wind

(16:05):
is part of a the more the, merrier as far
As i'm, concerned more of The marria. Philosophy wind, solar that's,
great but you have to have enough reliable energy in
order to be able to provide for your nation's. Needs
now we heard yesterday supposedly we're in good shape here In.
TEXAS i have a hard, time you, know he had Ed.
Herzon he's an energy. Expert he certainly should know more

(16:27):
about the topic THAN i. Do BUT i find it
hard to believe that we have all, know have all the,
energy or will have all the energy we need for
all THESE ai programs are gonna be done here in
the great state Of, texas here In. Houston i'm still
concerned about the security of the grid if we get
a big, storm all those types of, things But i'm

(16:49):
glad to see that we're calling back ABOUT i don't,
know six hundred and seventy million dollars that we were
going to be spending in federal subsidies on more wind.
Turbines here is a second jerry right on With Maria.
Bartoma hang on just a, second let me try that
one more.

Speaker 21 (17:05):
Time no one would build energy projects like these without
massive government, subsidies government, mandates government expedited. Permitting that allows
you to go over everyone's. Objections so, yeah the big
one at The Energy department that we pulled back on
was mutual with the utility developer as. Well they knew

(17:25):
there was no way the wind farm was actually going
to be, built so why build a transmission line that
half the time would just sit there doing nothing and
the other half the time would carry some variable amounts of.

Speaker 22 (17:36):
Power they knew it was just.

Speaker 21 (17:37):
A road to make their electricity prices more. Expensive so
we had a mutual party of the. Ways there's a
healthy dialogues about.

Speaker 1 (17:44):
Energy we need to start thinking About.

Speaker 21 (17:46):
Americans denmark today has the most expensive electricity in the.
World they were the first movers in offshore. Wind germany
has the second most, expensive and The United kingdom is
chasing in the record for the most expensive electricity you
can that's the result as you grow offshore. Wind that's
not a race The United states wants to. Win we

(18:08):
want to win in, jobs at opportunity and low electricity,
prices so.

Speaker 23 (18:13):
Share The Energy department also announcing more than thirty five
million dollars going to forty two projects all and at
Advancing emerging energy.

Speaker 21 (18:21):
Technology these are early stage technologies coming out of our
national labs that can be used for the, grid that
can use to make nuclear safer and more. Secure these
are cutting edge technologies that we want to give a
nudge into the. Marketplace but that's thirty five million. Dollars
in the One Big beautiful, bill we cut five hundred billion,

(18:42):
dollars and those are subsidies for wind for, example that
we're thirty three years. Old if a business has not
started in thirty, years it's got to fly on its
own by. Then but there are new cutting edge things
that come out of our, labs and if we can
give them a nudge to get them into the comercial,
marketplace we're happy to do that for the ones that
have great.

Speaker 1 (19:03):
Potential LIKE i, SAID i have no problem with alternative.
ENERGY i think nuclear should be on the. TABLE i
think it is on the table with this administration, anyway
especially little independent nuclear reactors that can be used by,
businesses used by a, city for, example to run the, city,
provided of, course. PROVIDED i don't, know AS i say,

(19:26):
That i'm actining to myself the city Of houston running
a nuclear, facility And i'm wondering to, myself you, know
we you, know we have a hard enough time just
keeping the roads fixed and the you, know the water,
flowing let alone be responsible for a nuclear. Reactor maybe
maybe there should be more of the private sector going.

that tropical wave that you made. Reference to it moved
Off the african coast probably two, days ago so it's
Closer to africa than it Is the Leeward And windward islands.
Right now well out in the att, right now not,

(52:02):
doing much but over the next couple of days it's over,
open waters, light winds nothing really to mess. With It
So National hurricane center is thinking that this could develop
into a tropical depression first and then we'll see what happens,
after that but it could get. Better organized, interestingly enough

the next seven days it's still going to be out
over the open waters Of, the atlantic so we got

Speaker 6 (55:39):
You know the.

Speaker 22 (55:39):
Capital complex but we know.

Speaker 33 (55:41):
They're here we Know That president trump has had an,
enormous effect very positive effect on.

Speaker 22 (55:47):
The crime.

Speaker 33 (55:47):
It's down the violent crime has almost been cut. In half,
carjackings overall it's it's it's a much, more.

Speaker 22 (55:55):
Say it's a, safe place it's a safe place.

Speaker 33 (55:57):
Again for thousands upon thousands of visitors that come up
to visit our. Nation's capital it's just a safer place.
To be and We Thank president trump.

Speaker 1 (56:05):
Ford well and he also is talking about perhaps Sending
The national Guard into chicago to try to. Help them,
Of course chicago's fighting back. On it they don't want
anything to do. With it do you think That the
president really wants to Send The national guard into most
of our blue violent cities or do you think that
he did It, IN washington dc because he knew, he
could and he's hoping that these blue city mayors and

(56:27):
blue state governors will take the hand and do something about. It,
themselves well but.

Speaker 33 (56:32):
The blue state mayors and governors haven't been doing anything
to reduce crime in.

Speaker 22 (56:38):
Their cities they just haven't. Done it they don't seem.

Speaker 17 (56:40):
To.

Speaker 33 (56:40):
CARE chicago, i, mean yeah, last week what fifty four,
were shot.

Speaker 22 (56:45):
Seven of them Killed.

Speaker 33 (56:46):
In chicago that happens almost every Weekend in chicago and
it's been taking place.

Speaker 22 (56:50):
Three years but what is the governor and what is
the mayor done? About it?

Speaker 33 (56:55):
VERY little i don't think they talk about the Crime
in chicago because it's black on. Black crime so they
don't want to talk. About THAT so i Think If
president trump can can protect the People in chicago through
the use Of The, national guard. Why not and That,
pig pritzker he's not gonna want to. See it he Hates,
the boss He Hates, donald trump AND so i Think At,
president trump he has to do what's in the best

(57:16):
interests Of the american people and Protect the.

Speaker 22 (57:18):
American people that's.

Speaker 33 (57:19):
What he said he was going, to do not only
at our, southern border but these cities that are Run.
By democrats crime is out of control and we must
do something.

Speaker 1 (57:28):
ABOUT it i think my favorite video. FROM yesterday i
don know if you've seen this yet or not Represent,
of nail's but my favorite video from yesterday came From
The United states navy showing them blowing up a drug
smuggler boat With Eleven trendy ragua gang members on board
and tons. Of drugs that was a beautiful thing.

Speaker 33 (57:45):
To, see yeah you, know what there's so many drugs
coming into. This country we should almost be doing it
on a. Daily basis we, HAVE to, i mean defend hall. Coming,
in listen these are. Terrorist organizations trendyagua is not. Our
friend it's not a. Rogue government they are terrorist organizations
out to cause havoc and harm and to line their

(58:08):
pockets with billions of dollars by poisoning, our people poisoning
our women, and children everybody in. This country so many
people dying, from fentanol and we have to. Stop IT
and i think this is a step in the. Right
direction we must. Do it so, SEEING eleven i hope
it becomes twenty two to mirow and then thirty.

Speaker 22 (58:28):
Three the, next day because it's killing. Our people we
got to.

Speaker 1 (58:31):
Do this, All, right well let's talk about what's next
on the agenda For The United. States congress we've got
a little budget battle, that's brewing and it Sounds like
democrats want to or at least start threatening a government
shutdown like they. Usually do.

Speaker 6 (58:43):
It's.

Speaker 33 (58:43):
Not happening the government isn't going to get. Shut Down
donald trump doesn't want the government to get. Shut down
so we've got a couple priorities obviously here over the next,
three weeks and that is to pass the. Appropriations bills for,
your listeners there are twelve. Appropriations bills we have passed two,
of them will probably get two more done.

Speaker 22 (59:01):
This week it's a. Short week we go, home tomorrow
but we got to get.

Speaker 33 (59:04):
All twelve and if you don't, pass twelve and many
many times we don't get the.

Speaker 22 (59:09):
Twelve pass we just DO a cr which is a.

Speaker 33 (59:11):
Continuing resolution which is just continuing to fund the government
into the next fiscal year from current fiscal. Funding levels
so it's hard to get twelve appropriations. Bills passed we're
going to do everything we can to get, it done
but there's always a battle In the house And.

Speaker 22 (59:26):
The senate and then you GOT, the Ndaa The National.

Speaker 33 (59:29):
Defense, authorization actor which is all a defense spending and
that is a.

Speaker 22 (59:33):
Big one that's, a, big big.

Speaker 33 (59:34):
Big bill it could be almost upwards of you almost a,
trillion dollars and that's for funding all. The military so
we have that. As well that is not an, appropriations
bill that's outside of. The appropriations but between those two
and then just fighting In the senate to get our.
Nominees Confirmed And chuck schumer should be ashamed. Of himself

(59:54):
we ought to cut his legs from underneath him because
he is out there just Conmpletely Obstructing president trump and
his agenda by by playing games.

Speaker 22 (01:00:04):
With the rule In. The senate on. Our nominees.

Speaker 1 (01:00:08):
It's, shameful Well and, i'm guessing and this last question,
for you serve will let you get back. To Work
and i'm guessing there's going to be some. Investigations done
what's top of, The list Especially For. JAMES comer i
know he's he's got a couple of battles he's trying
to fight.

Speaker 33 (01:00:23):
Right, out yeah you saw it yesterday with the thousands
upon thousands of Documents, with EPSTEIN and i know that
people want. To know there's a lot of people that want,
to know they want. EVERYTHING released i don't know if
you're going to find anything new in those thousands of thousands.
Of Pages i'm i'm sure somebody that's been paying close
attention To the epstein case.

Speaker 22 (01:00:43):
And the files and probably already aware of most of.

Speaker 33 (01:00:45):
That STUFF but i, just think, you Know, we yeah,
it's important but we got more important things to do.
Right now but the next, you know, thirty days we've
got to get. It done we cannot check down the
government because, you're Right the democrats.

Speaker 22 (01:00:57):

Speaker 1 (01:15:08):
It's fifty three our time Here in houston's borning news without.
The tariffs that how many trillions? OF dollars i Think
the president said something like seventeen trillion dollars is brought in,
through tariffs and it's, kind of, you know saving us
from our. National debt at least at, this Point the
president got asked about the federal judges ruling that says

(01:15:29):
the tariffs. Are illegal Here Is president trump responding to
the judges. Ruling yesterday everybody's talking ABOUT. The usa they're
talking about the job that. We're, doing everybody we're the.

Speaker 4 (01:15:42):
Best economy we have a very very important decision being
made By The supreme court because our country is, the richest,
the strongest the. Most powerful but if for, some reason some.
Liberal court i'm talking about the court that just ruled
where Even an obama judge voted in favor, of US.

Speaker 6 (01:15:59):
Which i gave him a.

Speaker 4 (01:16:00):
Compliment yesterday as, YOU know i said that took. Great
courage but it's a liberal court and it's going up
To The, supreme COURT who.

Speaker 6 (01:16:08):
I think have been.

Speaker 4 (01:16:10):
INCREDIBLE people i think they've made very. Wise decisions but the,
tariff question because without the tariffs' countries, in serious. Serious
trouble we've taken in almost seventeen trillion dollars of investment is.
Coming in most of it has come in because. Of
tariffs and if for some reason somebody wanted to be,

(01:16:32):
POLITICALLY correct i actually think it's. UNPOLITICALLY correct i think
politically correct is to approve it because there's nothing so
popular is what's happened to. Our country our country is doing,
so well but we had a liberal court gave us
a very, shocking ruling and that ruling is basically saying
that the trillions of dollars that are that are pouring into,

(01:16:53):
our country putting us in a position like no country
is anywhere in the world that they'd like to see
us that take. It away by, the way a lot

The pre set that sets the. Record streets this has
made my whole day. More efficient one use RADIO seven
jtrh seven seven hour time Here On Houston's. Voting news,
all right du? Getting drunk turns out that getting drunk
evidently is going out, of style especially especially with young

(01:26:16):
people who. KNEW that i had.

Speaker 4 (01:26:19):
No.

Speaker 1 (01:26:19):
Idea yep turns out that alcohol sales, are dropping especially amongst.
Young people gallop has released a pole on national, alcohol
consumption and you might find these results kind. Of shocking
In the, gallup pole only fifty four percent of the
country reports that they drink fifty four percent. Consume alcohol,

(01:26:42):
that is that's pretty. Amazing statistic it used to be
much much higher. Than that the subcategories of the gallupole
revealed other bits of. Interesting information women more likely to
quit drinking, than men with an eleven percent drop in
drinking rates since twenty twenty three compared to a five
percent drop. In men white adults more likely to quit

(01:27:03):
drinking than adults, of color with an eleven percent drop
in drinking rates since twenty twenty three compared to a
two percent drop in people Of color from twenty three to.
Twenty five the largest declines in drinking rates were among
people earning less than forty thousand dollars, per year with
a fourteen, percent drop and those earning one hundred thousand
dollars or more per year with a thirteen. Percent drop,

(01:27:23):
in contrast drinking rates among those earning between forty thousand
and ninety nine thousand dollars fell by only about, Four
percent so people with higher incomes and people with much
lower incomes were the ones that were. Quitting, drinking now
maybe with the, Lower incomes maybe it had more to

(01:27:44):
do with the cost of alcohol than it had to
do with actually just giving. Up alcohol it also has
evidently something to do. With youth younger generations much more
likely to quit drinking than, older generations with a nine
percent drop in adults eighteen to thirty four and a
ten percent drop in adults ages thirty five to fifty
four compared to a five percent drop in adults fifty five.
And older but do note it dropped in. All categories

(01:28:09):
republicans had A nineteen this. Is interesting republicans had a
nineteen percent drop in drinking rates compared to a six
percent drop among independents and a three percent Drop. Among
democrats so you're more likely to quit if you're. A
conservative seven to ten dive for traffic and Whether, it
yes this? Is terrible? What terrible? S oh i have

Busy anymore the high end restaurants are, still busy but
the ones that the middle class usually frequents not. So much.

Speaker 6 (01:33:38):
Totally agree, with you, and first thank you for, having
me and to thank you for covering this topic because
it is. So important what they call the hollowing out
of the middle class or the shrinkage of the, middle
class it is going to be more devastating than the
dot com bubbles in the. Housing bubble and, it's happening
and we all are just watching. It happen and you

(01:33:58):
Are absolutely and when you don't have the income and
the paid disparity versus, paid polarization meaning why is the middle?
Class shrinking is it because more people are becoming wealthy
or more becoming? Less wealthy well we know, the answer it's.
Less wealthy so you are. Absolutely right and it's such
an important topic because it has so many consequences, mental,

(01:34:19):
health suicide, Family violence so it's really devastating and it
needs something needs to be done.

Speaker 1 (01:34:26):
About, it well, you know that's always the sixty four
thousand dollars question is and what do you do? About
it do you just artificially? Raise wages because if you,
do that then you just add to, the inflation which
is part of what is driven all. Of this we've
gotten in particular problems, with inflation, you know going back
to going BACK. To covid things just kind of turned

(01:34:47):
out a dime during THE whole, covid thing which didn't
help the economy. Very much AND now i think you're
potentially looking at a generation of people who are not
going to be, home buyers they're going to be. HOME renners.

Speaker 6 (01:34:58):
I agree and when, you say what's what's the fix?
To it the reason there was so much inflation IS
during Covid and i'm blamed both parties, on this throwing
free money out just from a plane and throwing the
free money out, saying here go, spend it don't you
don't have to. Earn it that was a. Big problem
but if you look at what Happened in january, Nineteen

(01:35:18):
Fourteen tenry ford introduced his five dollars. A day he,
wasn't altruistic he was a CAPITALIST like, i am but
he believed and the average wage in. Nineteen Fourteen in
january nineteen nineteen fourteen when he did the five dollars a,
day increase was the dollar sixty seven, a day so
he more than doubled the. Average wage and other CEOs

(01:35:39):
were complaining, to him people are quitting, our company want
to go Work? For ford why are you? Doing this and,
he said even back in, nineteen fourteen, he recognized if
there's not a middle class that is the Backbone, of
america if you don't have if your employees can't buy,
your product and that's why he raised wages to five
dollars a day so his employees could buy the very

(01:36:00):
product that. They made and the, answer is corporations really
do need to stop. Right now their money and importance
goes to, shareholders dividends and they need to pay their
employees because without the, middle class There, Is medicaid Medicare
And social security. Go away AND if i can just
give a quick Example social. Security tax we all get Taxed,

(01:36:26):
social security but it stops at around one hundred and
sixty or one hundred and seventy six, thousand plus so
let's say one hundred and. Seventy seven so most of
your audience probably is paying the Max so security tax
if they make below one hundred and seventy. Seven Thousand
jamie DIAMOND and i don't have anything, against him BUT
the CEO Of jp morgan made a total compensation package

(01:36:48):
of thirty nine million. LAST year Eace Paid social security
up to one hundred and seventy six. Plus thousand that is.
Just unfair everybody needs. TO pay i don't care if
You're elon musk, making billions you need To Pay social
security tax on every penny that. Comes in and that
would that would help the, middle class and it Would Secure,

(01:37:09):
Social security Medicaid, and medicare but it's. It's devastating in nineteen,
seventy eight THE average ceo was making twenty times with
the entry level person where the average employee was making at.
The corporation today they're making over four hundred times with
the average. Workers making so that means there's over an

(01:37:30):
eleven hundred percent increase since nineteen seventy eight, for CEOs
whereas employees since nineteen seventy eight is twenty.

Speaker 1 (01:37:36):
FOUR percent i Wish again i'm. A, capitalist yeah it
sounds like you're proposing if the typical democrat tax the,
rich SOLUTION though i don't know how well that's going to.
