One eight hundred three to two one zero seven ten.
And a quick shout out and congratulations to a friend
of mine whose mother, Johanna, just became a US citizen
within the last hour. She went down to the federal

(00:30):
court there in Newark, New Jersey, and she waited ten
years and did it legally, did it the right way,
never did it illegally, and she is our one of
our newest US citizens. Congratulations. Yes, folks, all those who
say Ken have a heart. They're all the same, whether
they're here legally or not. No, this is why it's
so offensive to people who do it the legal way

(00:50):
and they wait ten years. It's like cutting the line
and giving them the finger. Don't do that. You can
be a productive US citizen doing it legally. Seven ten
w R. Let's go to our busy phone is doctor
John and Newark. Good morning, Happy holidays.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
Hello, do you hear me?

Speaker 1 (01:05):
Yes, sure I do. Great.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
Okay, Well, look, God, I have a sort of a
message for everybody. In my opinion, I'm a professor at
their Rutgers Medical School, and both the Democrats and Republicans
have made errors, but they both agree on one thing.
We need to solve the problem of American medicine costing

(01:31):
us nineteen percent of our GDP. We die younger than
thirty six other countries. There are countries that pay the
governments pay less than two percent of GDP, and they
live six years longer than us, and they're rated thirty
one slots higher than we are by the World Health Organization.
Now I know how this is done, because I've worked

(01:52):
in the number one rated country in the world, and
I've lectured in several of these countries that are in
the top seven. I know how it is done. I
know how it can be done, but nobody gives it.
Damn In the United States. I've sent letters on multiple
occasion to Monk Trump and Kennedy. Nobody got back to me.

(02:14):
Then I started sending it to the Democrats. They don't
care either. Now why don't they care? Because so many
billionaires are invested in the American insurance Your American insurance.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
I don't have any argument. I'm waiting for an argument.
I'm like, no, Doc is right, you're at present. Every
doctor I've spoken to says the exact same thing too.
There is so much money in this to be made
by so many people that you just don't have. And
I heard the windshield wifers are poor. Doc. I'll let
him focus on driving. Doctor, I don't disagree with you
at all. In fact, get your number. We'll get the number.

(02:47):
Here is he at the station. Here, We'll get your number,
and we're going to get you in touch with a
congress member because I'm sure if President Trump got the
word directly, more would be done. This is something that
could affect the Republicans for the midterms, so they will
want to get involved in this. But doctor John is
not wrong on so many levels. Why though, is our

(03:07):
life expectancy down? We'll don't forget versus a country like
Sweden or even Italy or Spain or Ireland. America is
so multicultural, and we have such a huge number of
people who come here impoverished third world countries. And I'm
not singling anyone out, but the reality is we are
a much more diverse country and so when you get

(03:27):
somebody who comes from a country that may not have
all their shots, may not have all the same nutrition
once they get here, sure we're going to have a
lower survival rate, We're going to have a higher infant
mortality rate. That definitely has an impact on our numbers.
And then, don't forget it turns out that we've been
getting screwed, if you will, by a lot in the

(03:48):
industry over the years, because we've been paying higher prices
for our medicine and for medical treatment in essence to
subsidize in the other countries. And finally, you look at
the other countries, we have been subsidizing them by providing
military so that they can afford to give their people whatever,
free universities, free healthcare, while we are paying to defend them,

(04:09):
and they are saving billions and billions of dollars.
