 Progressive Discussions, I'm your host for Progressive Discussions, James P. Madonna of Megalife 21, illustrious co-host and mentor and the very founder of Newsletter Censored in 1977, the one or only, the Reverend Dr. William J. Iserman, how are you feeling this week? How are you feeling this week, sir? Well, without my nappy, I'm not too happy, but you know, I'll get one later. Seven lucky bells, and believe me, we need it compared to our disastrous last week, technical crisis and or sabotage last week and the week before, the past two weeks. Actually, I had to scrap all of our YouTube live shows because they were all horrible. Of course, I fired the technical team that was responsible for it, but they were absolutely atrocious, despicable, subpar beyond belief, and I do apologize to everyone who had to witness them, but you don't have to witness them anymore. They moved on to Instagram. I assumed that because it was YouTube, Google corporation that the live stream would be high definition, like it said, it would be high quality, but little did I know it was the opposite. Maybe it's because it was, it's a corporate thing and they're not going to give you the finest quality live video stream, perhaps. Maybe they want you to pay for it, yeah. Maybe they want you to pay for it, but actually, I think it has a lot to do with the fact that your Wi-Fi is enough to get you on to the internet and on to live streaming. You'll be there, but the connection speed wasn't fast enough for optimum quality live stream video, optimum quality, high definition live stream video, okay, but it'll get you on the internet, so in a way, you were right, yes, it did get us on the stream, but the audio was horrible, the video was atrocious, like I said before, it was all blurry and pixel-y. Everything we discussed politically is part of our series, Crapitalism in a Conk Show, and there's an awful lot of crap with capitalism. Yes, King Neptune, I know I have a long monologue, I have a lot to say, a lot of catching up to do, that's true, okay, thank you. We are recording on an audio podcast as well as on high definition 18.3 megapixel video, which is far superior to the video we used to have on our past shows, which we were not high definition and not 18.3 megapixels. Seven Lucky Bells, I don't believe I rang them for this week's show. I don't like the way the last bell rang, let me get going here. No beer today, I had a bad week as far as my health went, as far as how I felt. It's going to be high antioxidant-rich medicinal tea, herbs for my garden and tea that I purchase. It's a medley of medicinal wonders, which includes fresh sage and oregano for my garden. Oregano is good. You know, commercial chicken farmers are starting to give their chickens oregano instead of antibiotics? Perdue, Mr. Perdue. Because it's that powerful? Yep, it's in the water. It's probably the strongest natural antibiotic known, oil of wild oregano, or maybe all oregnos. There is a Mexican oregano, you know. That's a marjoram, I think, and it's in the family of a marjoram. Not margerin, not the toxic marjoram, you know, that gives you cancer, hydrogenated trans fats. No, we don't want that. A moment of silence for the death, the passing away of Hugh Hefner. He died at age 91, right? I wonder if they buried him in his black and red smoking jacket. No, he has a red one. But he will be buried next to Marilyn Monroe. And I'm sure he pre-selected that plot. In a mausoleum, you know, where she is. Well, yeah, he single-handedly put her on the map, I think, right? Well, she was on the first issue. I think that's kind of nice, you know. I mean, the guy, you know what I'm happy about is that he outsmarted his young 30-year-old playboy, playmate, wife by leaving her nothing in his will. She thought she was going to cash in the gold digger and the jokes on her. Hugh Hefner was too slick. He did make her sign an ironclad pre-nuptial agreement, which was very ironclad. I wonder where he left his daughter. But, you know, that's pretty cool because he knew, listen, he was a very intelligent man, a highly intelligent, competent businessman, too. He knew these girls, I mean, were after his money. I mean, his wife was 60 years younger than him. It was a 60-year difference. That's right, you heard it correctly, 6-0, you know. Did you know Barbara Walters was a bunny? Huh? Barbara Walters. Really? As was, of course, Gloria Steinem when she exposed him. She became a bunny for a week or so while she was doing the exposition of him. You know, I imagine that these women were young at one time. Well, it was a way to break into, you know, showbiz and all that crap. So, Lee Merriweather is a former Mrs. America, I think. Yes. Lee Merriweather, who played Barnaby Jones as the secretary. Star Trek. Star Trek, she was in there. She was one of three cat women on the old Batman series with Julie Numar and Eartha Kitt. Moment of silence for Hugh Hefner and Bobby DeBray and Heenan. Poor guy. Probably the only natural born stand-up comic in professional wrestling. The genius at the microphone. Moment of silence. Excuse me. I have recovered from a whopping cold as well as a strained, possibly partially torn abdominal wall, which was my own fault. All right, where were we? Republicans seem to be clueless about what's in the new health care bill, because I think, because they know, it's a screw job of you. And Trump keeps saying they got the votes. Of the lower 98% are getting screwed. Now, speaking of screw job from the Trump administration, Trump's kids were lying about their father's new tax plan. Trump said that it is targeted to benefit the middle class and small businesses. Poppycock, Balderdash, Hogwash. It is designed- Of course, Pucky. Okay. As Colonel Potter says on that. It is designed, they are winky dinking you, like Mr. Haney on Green Acres, winky dinking the public to make you think that, it's actually helping the top 2% of the income population, the mega rich. And the big corporation. Which includes the Trump family. Dropping the big corporation. Yeah. Well, hey, I believe it's something over 60% of corporations don't pay any taxes right now. Right now. Well. And they're going to drop it from 35 to 20. Well, the lying, let's put it this way. The apples do not fall far from the lying tree. Yeah, it is apple season. Yes, it is the season for apples and pears. That's right. It is. Now we're encountering autumn weather. Yeah. And tomorrow is the first day of October. My favorite month of the year. And it's a very special month in many ways. The holidays are fun in autumn in general. But I like it. You know, the beautiful foliage, different colors of the leaves. You know, like that old song, autumn leaves, you know. Autumn leaves. Autumn leaves on your window. And then they made the sound. That's like a cross between us. It's like a turkey. It was supposed to be autumn leaves hitting your window. Okay. Chris Christie, you're an obese, a gluttonous, a fat piece of shit, Republican. You are without a doubt, Krispy Kreme, Crisco, Chris Christie. Because a gentleman from Morris County by the name of Tom contacted me. Tom is living on a fixed income. And when you live on a fixed income, you only have so much to live on. That's why they call it a fixed income. Well, Chris Christie lowered, because of Chris Christie's new law, his snap, his food stamps went from $194 down to $50. And now they lowered it again down to a whopping $15 a month. Yes, you heard it right, people. $15 a month. That's an insult. That's a slap in the face to any adult humanoid. What the hell is any person or child going to do with $15 a month? And the excuse was that Chris Christie passed this new law, where if you're only paying room and board, and you cannot prove that you're also paying for utilities, then you get your food stamps cut back. What the hell does paying the electric bill have to do with your nourishment requirements, your food? Well, I know some people who are paying electric bills, along with their room and board, and their food stamps is only $16 a month. Oh, one more dollar. Oh, wow. That's why I said it's a bullshit Republican excuse to cut food stamps. Well, obviously. It's illogical. It doesn't make sense. That's correct. That's correct. Okay. Anything they do doesn't make sense. Okay, now, of course Donald Trump was pulling the same routine with Puerto Rico that he pulled with Mexico, the same racist routine against brown-skinned people based on Trump's delayed procrastination, a lack of activity towards helping the poor people of Puerto Rico. And Trump's ridiculous statement about Puerto Rico recently that, oh, Puerto Rico was an island in the middle of a big ocean. Yeah, the Atlantic. Well, first of all, it's not in the middle of the Atlantic. It's part of the Caribbean. It's right next to the island of Hispaniola, which consists of the Dominican Republic, Haiti. The U.S. Virgin Islands are right next to Puerto Rico. It is not an island all by itself in the middle of a big ocean. Now, what did that mean? Knowing how Republicans think and knowing how Donald Trump thinks, it sounded like he was trivializing the plight of Puerto Rico, which should be either independent or a state. Well, you do know that. Not a Commonwealth. Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, and the other protectorates of the United States pay more for food and et cetera than we do here on the continent. So what you're saying is it's a stereotypical Republican screw job of Puerto Rico, just like they screw Mexican immigrants who legally try to come into the United States and get a tourist visa or a green card. A tourist visa, a person who wants a tourist visa has to show that they own a home and have money in a bank and they have sufficient income. They're tourists. Why do they need to do that? And sending people from Baja to a dangerous Juarez, Mexico, to the consulate to get their green card. Meanwhile, they're from the West Coast in Baja. They're always to force people to quit applying for whatever they're applying for. They do it with welfare. They do it with SSI, Supplemental Security Income. They do it with Social Security Disability. They deny you for the first time for no logical explanation, no logical reason. They just deny you. They played a numbers game. What they're doing is they'll see their legal documents and legal forms that people apply for. But they're going above the law by finagling with the law. Like they reserve the right to discriminate and be unfair. The official policy of the Social Security Administration is to deny you the disability. It is to deny you on first term. And then you have to end up getting a Social Security Advocate, a legal representation. They may want to make you quit. That's it. Okay, moving along. Because we do have a, with this new system, we do have a 29-minute pause. 29 minutes and 50 seconds, but why couldn't it be an even 30 minutes? It's beyond me. You have to ask the Sony Corporation. Maybe it's a Japanese thing. Secretary Tom Price... Yeah, he's gone. He's using a fortune in taxpayers' money for personal use. He was living high on a hug, which includes, I think, a private jet. It looks like most of Trump's appointees, like Republicans in general, tend to steal taxpayers' money. That's correct. They do things on the taxpayers' dime. It is definitely, without a doubt, a trend. Mnuchin and the other... There's seven of them, I believe. And Tom Price is gone right now. He resigned. The others should do the same. We're going to get fired with pressure on Trump. But, you know, I mean, the American Red Cross has that big white ship with the Red Cross on it. You know, I think it's called Hope Comfort Ship. It's all hospital beds. Yeah, it's on its way. Why wasn't it on its way? Several days ago. And it's only up here in Virginia. It can't get to Puerto Rico in a day? Impossible. I think the government delayed helping Hurricane Harvey victims in use in Texas, to be honest with you. Probably so. Because Mr. B.O.B.U. Arbusto did it in Katrina. That's what they do. Why do you think he hired that horse trainer idiot guy for FEMA? And it won't FEMA to spend the money on stuff like that. Oh, but they sure love to use taxpayers' money for their own selfish private agendas. That's correct. Personal agendas. That's correct. And then they will tell you, it's their money. They worked hard for it. How could that be? They earned it all. How could that be? It's their money. It's there. Just like the Earth's natural resources belong to the elitists. Yes. Because they say so? Yeah, because they say so. It sounds like the old popes back in the day. You know, do as I say, not as I do. Because I'm in power. That's right. And if the person owns the land or the mine or the whatever, it's his. And he can tell you what to do. Well, they sure disrespected Native Americans in North Dakota, didn't they? They sure told them what to do, didn't they? They'll look over the city. Get off the land! We're going to steal it. We're going to steal it and take it by force. And then say that it was God-ordained. It was God-ordained, man. Is that why the redneck evangelical flag-waving teabaggers are always saying, God bless America and God is on the side of the United States and God doesn't like anybody else but us? That's right. That's right. That's right. They're a form of freedom and they're a form of United States government and they're a form of constitution and they're a form of Bible. They like to rewrite everything. Yeah, if they don't like what it is, then and there they do want to rewrite it. If you don't look like them and you don't live your life like them and you don't believe what they believe in, you're no good in their eyes. Which is a lily white Caucasian, generally white Anglo-Saxon Protestant racist bigoted people. And these are the people that attended the Donald Trump rallies in 2016. And these are, many of them are in severe need of some fresh brain cells because they're definitely lacking in them. This is why all Americans must vote in every election. Must vote. All Americans that are of legal voting age must vote. No if ands or buts. If you don't vote, you have no right to complain. Whether you be 18 years old or 80, you must vote. The more volume of Americans that vote, the less of a chance that a Republican will ever get elected. True. And okay, let's say you have, I like to see a progressive independence control the United States, but let's say we have to accept the lesser of the two evils and we have democratic control, Congress and Senate, you know, and the White House. All right, we still can get a hell of a lot of good things done for 98%. You know, it's like, I mean, they may be corporates, but things will get done. If they're corporates like Clinton, forget about it. Well, Clinton accuses Bernie Sanders' plan of free healthcare and public university education for all as giving away ponies. In other words, she sounds. Yeah, but the oil depletion allowance is not. But she sounds like a Republican with that statement. She is a Republican. Oh, you're giving away ponies. Yeah. You're giving away, you're giving, you're giving handouts to the little guy. Look, if big money is supporting your campaign, you're not going to say anything against it. And that's what you have with these Democrats, the corporate Democrats. Right. So her new book doesn't look like it's designed to warm up to the little guy. No. It's not warming, it's not warm and fuzzy like a tent. Everything that was warm and fuzzy during the campaign came from Bernie and she took certain things over. Right. From him, from him, he gave her certain things to certain policies that he wanted put in place. And she was forced to take them. Right. But if she had her druthers, she'd kiss the asshole Wall Street just like Robby did. Oh, yeah. When he couted out with that insane bipartisanship compromise with the bloated-toed Newt Gingrich. Of course. 25 on. All right. Oh, I'm sorry. 26. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. 29, 29. Yeah, when they gutted out welfare as we know it and they signed away Glass-Steagall. That was the compromise between Bill Clinton. I feel you're paying Bill Clinton and the wicked, stingy piece of shit, Newt Gingrich. All in the benefit of Wall Street, which broke our economy in 2007, 2008. Because they had the freedom to do so. And they have it again. Well, you might as well sink our teeth into these readings on the next 29 minutes and 50 seconds. Yeah. Right in a row. Yeah. But that really sucks, man. I mean, you think Chris Christie, you know, getting back to the earlier statement, you would think Republican Chris Christie would be nicer towards the end of his administration in the end of his eight years. He's going to save all those people addicted to opioids. Yeah. What about people that don't have enough food in their house? All with them people. He don't. Groceries. What about groceries? Cutting food stamps down because you're paying room and board and you're not proving that you're paying an electric bill. It's totally, it's heartless, but that's how they are. That's why you have to vote them out of office and never elect them ever again, the Republicans. That would be nice. You know, I'm sure all the insane statements and lack of empathy and compassion. When it comes out of Donald Trump, I'm sure Bernie Sanders has been really on a roll. Yes, he has. Being infuriated by all that. I know he was infuriated by the tax plan, the recent Trump tax plan, which is based on a lie. Well, they, look, I don't want to start now because we're going to cut, but I'll tell you later. Maybe on the flip side. But remember it later. Yeah. All right. We're closing in. Closing in now. It's actually on the first three. On the first three sessions, it's actually 29 minutes and 50. Well, there it is. Seconds. And we are being 50 second count then. All right. It'll stop automatically. Yeah. But you know what? All the frigging poltergeists and evil spirits and all the things that have been sabotaging. Okay. We are back from our little break. Zero. There you go. All right. We lost some seconds, but we're back. All right. Now, what were you going to say before you started to begin the readings? Okay. One of the bad things about Barack Obama was the fact that when he came into office, he allowed the Bush tax cuts to remain in place for his whole eight years. And we could have had health care reform in the first two years. That too. Because the Democrats were in total control. Bingo. Now that tax cut, Bush tax cut was a drag on the economy. A couple of trillion dollars that was wasted. Okay. Yeah. At the end of Bill Clinton's tenure, he's got a, they differ on the amount all the time. I see different amounts. But somewhere's about 200 and some billion dollar deficit reduction. No deficit when he left office. Soon as George Bush gets in there with his tax cut in 2001, deficit, balloons again, et cetera, et cetera. Well, isn't this a pattern of Republican versus Democratic administrations? Well, yeah, but sometimes the Democratic administrations come in and clean up the damage that the Republican has done, much like FDR. Right. But in this instance, Barack did not. He was very proud of the fact that there were many jobs created for, I don't know, month after month after month. But there would have been many more if the tax cut had been stopped. Can you imagine how much the economy would have been stimulated and skyrocketed if the tax system that Ronald Reagan put in, the very unfair tax system was abolished and we went back to the original, you know, rich man pays most of the taxes. No, because under Krupi's plan, he wants to do away with the estate tax, which is levied only on people who have an estate of $5.5 million. So he wants, he only cares about cutting taxes for the rich. Oh, no, they say for farmers, farmers. These are lies. Well, you know, they used to say that the Agriculture Department with their subsidies was for the low wage farmer. And it ended up being for all the big agribusinesses and all the other crap. That's what they do. Look what they do with the 14th Amendment. It's supposed to be free to slaves and due process. And it ends up for people, for people, mind you, but it ends up as due process and everything else for corporations. That's what they do. And it ends up being tax cuts for the rich only and an additional tax burden for the middle class. Well, yeah, you got to get the extra money for somewhere. Main Street, which is small businesses, entrepreneurs. They continue to have the burden after believing the campaign lies of Republicans. Now, you know that any cutting of the few crumbs in social services, you know that their excuse for cutting the few crumbs doesn't make any sense. Like what I just told you before about Chris Christie. Well, if you're paying rent and you're only paying room and board and you're not paying for an electric bill, utilities, you're not paying utilities. Therefore, you have enough money to buy your own groceries. Correct. But what the hell is the difference? Usually room and board includes. Sometimes it does. Some of the utilities that you're using. Sometimes it does. It's supposed to be all inclusive when you pay room and board. No, room and board would be Hugh Hefner. Yeah. You know, that's it. Elevity bills. This time in 18.3 megapixels. High definition. There is no levy when it comes to Republicans and what they have been doing to the low-income people, the poor, and the middle class. And the economy. And the economy. Well, of course, the little guy has always been the backbone of the American economy. Well, what do you expect when corporations take billions and billions of dollars, or trillions, actually, of dollars overseas and don't bring it back here to be taxed? As far as my book goes. Tax havens? Those people are traders. Well, yeah. Treason. Yeah. Absolutely. Treason. Tax havens and tax evasion. Yeah. That's what it is. You know, you're hiding your money overseas. You have your corporation's address overseas. And all the loopholes in the tax system you can only use. The little guy can't use itemized deductions because he doesn't have enough. And this is what Bernie Sanders meant. Charity. This is what Bernie Sanders meant about closing many of these loopholes, these unfair loopholes that are designed to have all the loot going to them, going to the top. That's it. And what's pathetic are these nine to five Joe Sixpack humanoids that actually believe in trickle-down economics, like it was true, you know? I was appalled to read this letter which indicates that the writer appears to think that the First Amendment applies only to Donald Trump and not to any of his critics. Yeah. Donald Trump and his kids, his princes and princess. His birther comments, the statements regarding the Khan family, the federal judge, Charlottesville remarks, the NFL players, and the national anthem controversy are acceptable to his supporters because they share his political ideology. In the United States, even the president is subject to the criticism of his policies, comments and actions. He may be the most interesting man in the world. No, that's the Doseki's man. But sadly, for the wrong reasons. Somebody's kissing Trump's ass here. Trump supporters seem to object to the fundamental principle of the First Amendment, which encompasses freedom of speech and the right to peaceful dissent. This basic principle is what Americans have died for throughout our history and what sets the United States of America apart from many nations. Otherwise you have fascism. When we fail to understand this American principle, we do a great disservice to our forebears and the institutions that they created. All are in them. All hardly. Is there ever a statement by Donald Trump that is the truth? No, he's a pathological liar and a narcissist. He said this week that there were enough votes to pass the new health care bill. The truth is there were not enough votes and the bill died before coming to a vote. Do you remember the recent article where he's standing next to Vice President Mike Pence and says, oh, if only my wife Melania was with me right now, and she's standing right next to him, giving him a dirty look. So Pence is also giving him a dirty look? Do you have dementia or something? He said that the new tax plan proposal would not benefit himself, but actually he would benefit greatly as it does away with the estate tax. And if we can believe what he says that he is worth 10 billion, he would benefit greatly. Last weekend, Trump tweeted 26 times regarding his hissy fit with the NFL. 26? Just on the NFL? You know, people do have a right not to stand or kneel to any national anthem, especially one with stupid lyrics. Well, Republicans have a funny way of granting rights to people. So that's unpatriotic, but all the other things that Republicans do to veterans is patriotic? Also, whatever a corporation or a CEO wants you to do or do to you is a right. And you don't have a right to fight it. No unions. They don't want unions. It's like the sheriff of Nottingham. What do you call that? During feudalism, it's the king's forest. You cannot hunt the king's deer in the king's forest. Yeah, exactly. Or the fact that poor Nostradamus had to hide all of his visions in riddles and quatrains. So the Inquisition would not burn him at the stake or hang him for heresy or something. Exactly. From the Catholic Church. Because those in power were in charge. They weren't crazy about Da Vinci either. Leonardo Da Vinci, Galileo. Yeah, the ones in power. They were kind of like Republicans of today. There were anti-science. There were anti-progress. There were anti-education, higher education. That's true. They don't want a smartened-up population. No. Because then they get their asses overthrown. They don't like that. They don't like that. Six times regarding Puerto Rico, where 3.5 million Americans are without power and nearly out of food and water. With regard to the NFL situation, Trump called the players sons of bitches. Because they were exercising their constitutional right. But yet the Khan members, white supremacists, and neo-Nazis, one of whom murdered a young woman in Virginia a short time back, are fine people according to Trump. You see the hypocrisy with the right wing? During his presidential campaign, Trump said he would drain the swamp. Drain the swamp. Well, guess what? The pond-scum-sucking creatures. Creature from the black lagoon. That slither from under the rocks at the bottom of the swamp happened to be his ilk. That's why they're still there. They really have to do something bad out in public before he fires them or they resign or he gets rid of them or whatever. But behind our back, they can do anything they want. It sounds like a real ass-kissing idiotic motor mouth is that Kellyanne Conway. Exactly. I call her Kellyanne Conway. I'm really ashamed that she's from Bergen County, New Jersey, where we are from. Well, I am from rather. Reverend Bill is from Pennsylvania. How about getting rid of Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price? Well, he did. Who spent over $400,000 on charter jet flights, taxpayers' money, of course. Hey, there goes all the money that was supposed to go towards the poor for the social programs, right? Health and Human Services. It went to Tom Price's fund and fraud. One of the flights was from Washington, D.C. to Philadelphia at a cost of $25,000. The 125 miles would cost about $50 by car. You know how close Washington, D.C. is to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania? It takes two hours to drive from New York to Philadelphia. It takes about four and a half hours to drive from New York to Baltimore. Another half hour or so to Washington. Washington is not far from Philadelphia. And let us not forget Secretary of the Treasury, Steve Mnuchin, who wanted a government plane to go on his third. Yes, third honeymoon. When you have to tell your kids that you have like a chicken feed to give them for dinner, and they have to go to bed partially hungry, that's where your money's going towards. That's where the taxpayers' money's going. It's going up to the fat cats right in their pocket. One thing Trump is right about, America does not need to drain the swamp, and he should be at the head of the line just for the record. I always have and always will stand up for our national anthem, but I am also a supporter of our Constitution. Oh really? They really support the Constitution. Do they bother to read it? Just like they don't bother to read the Bible? Well, as I said, Republicans have a different view of rights, and who has them? Holding up a document and claiming to be all-forward and protected is one thing, actually knowing what's inside the document and living it is another. But then again, you gotta love the last chapter of the book of Revelation. Whoever changes anything in this book or adds to this book shall feel God's wrath. Well, they try to rewrite the Bible all the time. They've done it. They're right-wing evangelicals. They've done it. Many of the new versions that are out are rewritten versions. The only accurate Bible is the original King James Bible, the original and first English translation with all of these, thies and thou's. Donald Trump promised Wednesday to bring revolutionary change to the federal tax code. Revolutionary change? So that American companies and workers can start winning again. Wait a minute, American workers or just a company? I think it's more or less... The companies and workers? The CEOs are gonna be winning. He actually included workers. How the fuck are the workers gonna win? How are they gonna win? Is he gonna bring all the jobs back to the United States and keep them here? I don't know. He thinks he did with Carrier and the other ones. There's never been tax cuts like we're talking about, Trump said. Trump presented a tax plan he wants Congress to pass before the end of the year to deliver what he has said would be the largest tax cut in the nation's history. Under our framework, we will dramatically cut the business tax rate so that American companies and American workers can beat out foreign competitors and start winning again. Good luck, you're way behind the foreign competitors. Now, I wonder where workers benefit from a business tax rate? Yeah, because there's no trickle-down. Trickle-down doesn't work. Workers don't benefit from a corporate tax rate or a business tax rate. Before the prosperity just pulls at the top and there's no trickle-down, then the workers get nothing. So it's another Trump lie, you know. Trump is also promising to reduce the corporate tax rate to below the average of other industrialized nations. And why do they need another tax cut? The filthy rich, really. Which he said would be a revolutionary change. And the biggest winners will be the everyday American workers as jobs start pouring into our country. Pouring into our country? I think so, huh? You know what I think? Corporate American CEOs are so stingy and greedy and evil that they could pay zero taxes and they still won't bring the jobs back. They'll still outsource them because they can get those poor souls, you know, over in China working for like 32 cents an hour with no benefits. They're that greedy. You think the jobs are gonna come back? No fucking way. Trump is seeking a much-needed win as he recovers from Republicans' failure to repeal the Affordable Care Act and the election lost Tuesday. The loss of Luther Strange. Trump's chosen candidate in the Alabama Senate primary. Never even heard of this guy, Luther Strange. Sounds strange to me. As he left the White House on Wednesday, Trump promised his tax plan would be the largest tax cut essentially in the history of our country. And when you know Luther, the Luther Vandross and Lex Luthor from the Superman series. And there's a program on television called Luther. No, wait, it's called Lucifer. Lucifer? Is it a series called Lucifer? Yes, Lucifer, excuse me. But they're trying to make a comedy out of it, I think. It's a comedy? No, it's serious, but they try to be cute and funny. I guess he's trying to re-image, he's trying to project a new image of the devil. A new image of the devil, yeah. Which goes hand in hand with the system we have today in the United States. Give Satan a new image. Oh, it is the devil's world. Make him look likeable, more likeable. This is not God's world. Oh, he ain't such a bad guy. He's got a sense of humor that Beelzebub. Yeah, I know, it is not God's world. You know, and Jeff Bankings was telling me everybody's idolizing Hugh Hefner, but the things he represented in life were against God. They were sinful. Most of it, but he did do one thing, was to present sex out there in the public in new ways and means and etc. But I think he was for women's rights. Well, yeah. He was in some ways a bit progressive. That's what I'm saying. Not as progressive as Larry Flint. That's what I'm saying. That's the magazine. It's going to be something special, Trump said. The proposed changes, including slashing the corporate and individual tax rates, Trump said he wants Republicans and Democrats to work together on the plan. This is our once-in-a-generation opportunity to fundamentally rethink our tax code. Senate Majority Mitch McConnell said. The old turtle head. Under the framework agreed to by Trump, the congressional leaders working poor people could owe no income tax. Filing a return could get much simpler. And there would even be a new credit for caring for elderly relatives. Remember, I think there's, like if you made $24,000, you wouldn't pay any taxes at all. Yeah, you know what I found out? My mother's wonderful health insurance company called Wellcare. They're only paying for one meal per day that she gets delivered from mom's meal. That's despicable. One meal per day and one eight-ounce cup of non-fat powdered milk per day. So does that all a senior citizen needs to live on is one meal per day? That's all the meals and wheels does. One third of your needed protein and et cetera in one meal a day. Big fucking deal. And? Crumbs, like my grandfather said. They're throwing you crumbs. And nothing on the weekends. Less than crumbs. Saturdays on the day. Two crumbs. So what do you do? Starve on Saturdays on the end and get a lousy meal for the next five days? Now, I hear a lot of good things about UnitedHealthcare and AARP. This is the company they deal with, UnitedHealthcare. I wonder if they pay for three-square meals for a senior citizen. That's really unacceptable. One meal per day for a senior citizen? It's probably because they can't distribute it. I mean, some lady or some guy in the morning comes and drops it off. So how can they do that like three times a day? No, it comes in a big box. Well, mom's meals come in a big box. Meals on wheels deliver once a day. So, you know, these programs... And the frozen ones, of course, they deliver once a week. Yeah, I'm not blaming the mom's meals or meals on wheels. I'm not blaming the companies per se that make the food, that prepare the food. I'm blaming the insurance companies, the scumbags. Okay, they belong in the chiseless hole of shame. In this case, well-care. You know how long it's taken for my mother to receive her walker? Months. You still haven't got a walker? Now that my sister called, it's supposedly, oh, well, we'll try to get it to you on Monday. Yeah, it's been months. They're stalling. They're, you know... I said, what are you sending? A walker or a Johnny Walker Scotch? I mean, how long does it take to get a friggin' walker? For his lady friend of mine, the nurse dropped it off. Dropped off a scale, dropped off a walker. There's your privatization for you, T-baggers and Republicans. There's your privatization for you. And that was all on Medicare? Yeah, so since my mother has all the cards, why doesn't she have the walker? Unbelievable. Anyway, you finish up... Oh, under the framework, 3-2 by Trump and congressional leaders, working poor people could owe no income tax. Providing a return could get much simpler. Republicans also want to eliminate two taxes paid entirely by the rich and take away a deduction for state and local taxes that is used most heavily and in some cases by the most wealthy and Democrat-dominated states. But many details are still in the works without sufficient details on how or even if these tax cuts will be fully paid for. This outline is nothing more than a fiscal fantasy. The missing information also makes it difficult to calculate the winners and losers of Trump's plan. Trump has said his priorities are helping the middle class and boosting jobs. Sure they are. Promising earlier this month that the rich will not be gaining at all with this plan. Okay, pick up where you left off. But Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said the framework released on Wednesday at best throws crumbs for some middle class people. Has the president read his plan? Schumer asked. I don't think so because he never does. He doesn't read that crap. He wants to read. Much like Bush, you know, Bush never read the briefings that were given him and all that kind of stuff. What color is it? It's annoying, the color of annoying. Because there's a new one running around. Yeah, yeah, there's a lot of new ones. Orange ones. Yeah, this is an orangy cat that's like trying to, which is familiar, demons trying to work through the cat to fuck up the show. Hey, don't be making so much racket. Got the damn door open, what more do you want? All right, continue. Continuing with the tax plan. Last year, I proposed a handy rule of thumb for evaluating the economic proposals of politicians. The more growth they promise, the worse their plan probably is. Why? Because the promise of bonkers growth usually means the politicians need that bonkers growth to paper over the ginormous deficits sure to follow. In the real world, under more realistic assumptions, if you assume that the economy goes gangbusters and everyone gets a lot richer, then the tax base swells, spending on social safety net services falls. And hallelujah! That expensive thing you want no longer looks so expensive. Maybe it's even free. This rule of thumb was useful during the presidential campaign, when candidates promised that their infrastructure, health and tax proposals would pay for themselves through faster growth. It's relevant again with the Big Six's new tax plan. I put plan in scare quotes here, because it's not really a plan. At best, it's an outline, offering barely more detail than the bullet points the Trump administration released in April. It doesn't even specify the thresholds for the individual income tax rates it proposes. It also doesn't identify a single individual tax preference it would kill, despite claiming to simplify the code and close lots of loopholes. Even the state and local tax deduction, which administration officials have talked about eliminating, isn't explicitly mentioned. The plan's designers may not know what their proposal is exactly, but they know it will turbocharge growth. The plan's designers, excuse me, President Donald Trump told a group of Democrats and Republicans on Tuesday that his tax plan framework could lead the economy to grow more than 6% a year as my Washington Post colleagues reported. To give you a sense of how ridiculous that is, the Federal Reserve's median forecast for long-term growth is 1.8%. Thanks in part to demographic challenges facing the country. What matters is the long-term number as growth rates can bounce around a lot quarter to quarter and over the course of the business cycle. Trump's own economic advisors have said they think the sum total of all his tax and regulatory policies would get us to only 3% growth, a number that has been locked by more or less the entire economics community. National Economic Council Director Gary Kahn is one of the administration officials who has been using that 3% benchmark, which he repeated on CNBC on Thursday while declaring that perhaps we might get even substantially over 3%. We think we can pay for the entire tax cut through growth. A tax policy center estimate of the fuzzy April framework found that it would lower revenue between $3.5 trillion and $7.8 trillion over 10 years, depending on which loopholes you assume get closed. Its numbers don't change much after accounting for economic growth effects. A separate estimate of the more recent framework released by the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget got the cost at about $2.2 trillion. Whatever the actual number is, we know it's in the trillions. No realistic amount of growth is going to wipe that out. In light of all these grand growth projections, I propose a corollary to my earlier rule. Here it is. If you promise that your policy will pay for itself through faster economic growth, you must commit in advance to cutting the programs you love most if that growth doesn't materialize. For Republicans, that means writing language into their tax bill lopping trillions off defense spending. Hey, if they truly believe their plan won't cost a dime, surely there's no risk to our national security. Otherwise, the yawning deficits that would inevitably result from the Trump plan may turn into an excuse to decimate programs Republicans are already eyeing, such as Medicaid and food stamps. Already I am. Not only are they eyeing them, they're chopping them. They're already chopping them. Speaking of devil, you know, compared to the previous discussions. Kansas provides a cautionary tale here. The state passed sweeping tax cuts in 2012 on promises that they would unleash boundless economic growth. Instead, the state had below average growth and huge budget shortfalls, which led to brutal cuts to services. School districts had to end the school year early. Eventually, after coming to terms with the failure of their supply side experiment, the state partially reversed its disastrous tax cuts, which may be where the country ends up in a few years if this Trump tax framework passes. But as Kansas proves, a lot of damage, including the federal case, bigger debt can be done in the meantime. We've got a small one or not really? I mean, yeah, we could pause it and just wing it because, you know, we'll come back at 3.30 and we've got like a half hour left. And just wing it, you know? If you don't have a small one, don't worry about it. We'll go to lunch. Because after this, we only have a half hour left, you know? Well, I mean, you could go the 20 minutes, if you want. Oh, you mean elapse it? Yeah. The 29. Yeah, let it run out. So 19 minutes. 19 minutes, excuse me. Yeah. Well, if you have an article. Well, plenty articles, you know. Not to say that if the Reverend Dr. William J. Eisenman and myself, yours truly, James P. Madonna, don't banter back and forth that we cannot produce an outstanding informative and also entertaining talk show to progressive warriors that happen to be extremely quick-witted with a great sense of humor. We don't need readings in front of us, but we just so happen to have plenty of material. Go ahead. Despite the failed attempts by the Republican Party to repeal the Affordable Care Act, the ongoing investigations into Russian election interference and historic low approval ratings for a president in his first term, the overwhelming majority of New Jerseyans who voted for Trump said they feel good. The New Jersey is no surprise in my mind now that New Jersey, New Jerseyites are the biggest assholes in the United States, except for me. This is supposed to be a democratic state. New Jersey seems to have become, like Wisconsin, a little too right-wing, and they re-elected Chris Christie. And Scott Walker. Wisconsin. Meanwhile, Wisconsin is right next door to a very progressive Minnesota, which I salute. Minnesota, the state of Minnesota, and its democratic progressive governor. The home of Jesse Ventura, Brooklyn Park, Minnesota. All right? Hubert Humphrey. Where's McGovern? Al Franken. Senator Al Franken. Minnesota, again. You know, as well as the Vernganya, the lay Vernganya and the AWA pro-wrestling. I don't want to digress. But what I'm trying to say is New York State in all ways has become much more progressive than New Jersey. It has, you know. Meanwhile, 56% of all voters say they disapprove of his job performance. A better outcome than the 74% who disapprove of Governor Chris Christie's job performance. No, he sucks, man. Hey, I got people in my neighborhood. Nobody says hi to each other. I go shop it in my town. Everyone looks mad. They all have an angry look on their face. Nobody talks to one another in my neighborhood. The university, Suffolk, surveyed 500 New Jersey voters who said they will likely go to the polls on November the 7th, of whom about 187 said they voted for Trump in the last election. Asshole pricks. I'm sure they re-elected Balloon Boy. Trump lost in the state to Hillary Clinton by more than a half a million votes. Among Trump's promises during this campaign, his campaign was to successfully repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare. But the latest GOP efforts to do so, a bill introduced by U.S. Senators Lindsey Graham and Bill Cassidy, has hit a snag. With Republican senators coming out in opposition, scuttling a vote plan for this week. Still, 81% of Trump voters said they felt good about their decision to elect him. And a mere 6% said they regretted it. Was it Satan comes to deceive the whole world as an angel of light to deceive the whole world? Christie spoke out against the Graham Cassidy bill last week, saying it would take $4 billion away from the state by ending the Medicaid expansion. Yeah, they're scapegoating the poor for their taxes being so high in New Jersey. The middle class are scapegoating the poor, just like the people in the South are scapegoating and blaming all of their problems on immigrants of color and people of color. They do the same thing here. They think that trickle-down economics is real and that you have to make life easy for the very rich and the corporations. Well, they'll move out of New Jersey. Bye-bye. Hey, put your corporate headquarters in Delaware if you want some extra tax breaks. New Jersey was able to get under Obamacare after speaking out publicly against the bill. The governor said he received a call from the White House asking him to explain his position. When asked whether their opinion of Trump was generally unfavorable or favorable, more voters chose the former by 58% to 37%. Trump's favorability at 37% is still ranked higher than those of Christie at 18%. Democratic Senator Bob Menendez at 20%, the state legislature at 23%, the U.S. Congress at 17%, and the leading candidates for government. Democratic candidate Phil Murphy, 33%. Yeah, the guy with Wall Street ties. And Republican Lieutenant Governor Kim Guadago, 27%. Yeah, Wall Street ties in. I think he's a very wealthy man, too. Like John Corazon was. Those surveyed were a mix of 43% Democratic, 28% Republican. The only true progressive doesn't even make the polls in her, Josie, Lisa McCormick. She doesn't even make the polls. I think she's running... I don't know if she's running as a Democrat or an Independent. Are you okay? Yeah. Oh, I thought you were... The polls were conducted by Landline and Cellphone over five days through Saturday. The margin of error is 4.4%. The voter's view of the state and the country was similar, with more than 60% saying that both are on the wrong track for New Jersey. 41% of voters said they'd feel the economy has stayed the same, while 34% said it has gotten worse and 20% said they feel the economy has improved. In terms of the state's median household income, New Jersey is among the wealthiest in the country. Well, it doesn't surprise me with all the tax breaks the fat cats are getting in New Jersey. The middle class are suffering, as always, being strangled. Okay, let's try this. A little change of pace. Yeah, that shouldn't be too long, just enough to knock off... you know, give or take ten minutes, nine minutes. We've all been there. Have we? Every gadget at home is running smoothly and we're streaming without a hitch. Suddenly, the dreaded digital slowdown and then the mental meltdown occurs. Oh, what does this apply to? There are plenty of reasons. Your Wi-Fi acts up. Ah, just what we were talking about the last two weeks of our show getting fucked over by the Wi-Fi. Including signal congestion, bandwidth issues and hardware limitations. The truth is most households and offices can't get away with a basic signal band router anymore. Well, I have Verizon files, fiber optics, which includes free Wi-Fi for a certain amount, an extra number of devices. And I'm running at a high speed. So when I go live on YouTube, my shows are clear. We're talking about non-fiber optics connections. Personal devices have started to stretch available bandwidth and each smartphone, tablet, television, desktop, gaming console, smart appliance and laptop is competing for the same signal. Whatever your Wi-Fi hiccups, here are surefire ways to speed things up. This is important. Listen, folks. Most people routinely update their apps and operating systems. But they forget about their router. How do you update your router? The advantages are twofold. You may make your Wi-Fi more efficient and also protect yourself from newly discovered security breaches. Using your web browser, type in your router's IP address to visit your router's administrator page. I'm learning something new. And check for updates. Well, in your case, you might not be able to get in. I don't have a router. Because you don't have a router. You will have to enter a username and password to log in. Crazy, but router default passwords are readily available online. If you weren't so far from my house, I'd give you my Wi-Fi router password. You can go right on my files. You're not on the list. That means you're too far away. You're out of range. Thing. FING is a network tool that you should have in your tech arsenal even if you know your router's IP address. Sure, you'll learn your router's IP address, but you can also see all devices connected to your network. Check your internet connectivity, monitor the network, and detect intruders. Be sure to restart your router once the update is complete for the changes to take effect. Put that down in your book. F-I-N-G. And go there. Well, you mean for any upgrades? No. Thing. It will know your router's IP address, and you'll learn other things, like you'll see all the devices connected to your network. Check your internet connectivity, monitor the network, and detect intruders. I have Specy. Specy gives you your network IP address? Oh, yeah. It gives you everything. Hardware, software. There's a network to it. I got it on filehippo.com. It's Specy. It gives you everything you want to know about your computer. It's a freebie. Well, I'm going to put Thing down for myself. Yeah, you know, you check on Thing. Thing. Like combining, yeah, Thing. Well, I can always write it down. You might be surprised what kinds of household devices can affect your Wi-Fi speeds. Cordless phones are obvious. But what about microwave ovens? Did you ever suspect that a baby monitor could slow down your videos on Facebook? Well, Facebook is loaded with glitches anyway. This is particularly true for older routers running on a 2.4 gigahertz. You know, that Eagle Beak... How did I do the Eagle Beak last time, like this? The Eagle Beak, Mark Zuckerberg, probably has low-budget, outsourced programmers running his very boring, looking pages. That's why there's so many glitches. This is the same frequency that many household appliances run on. So the signals tend to overlap. Another common tweak is to change the channel of your router. Again, this step is most helpful when you're running on a 2.4 gigahertz frequency. Because these can get congested with other appliances. Moving from one channel to a less crowded one may speed things up. The process is slightly different for Macs and PCs. Well, we'll just look at the Windows. Download a free Wi-Fi utility called Acrylic Wi-Fi Home. Similar to the MacScan tool, this application will instantly give you information about the Wi-Fi signal in your area, including the channels they occupy. You should definitely clip this reading up on your refrigerator. Oh, it will be on my computer. For Android users, there are a bunch of Wi-Fi scanning tools available. But a very popular one is Network Analyzer. Once you have the channel info, you need to prevent trampling on other channels. The recommended channels for 2.4 gigahertz are 1, 6, and 11, which don't overlap with each other. Many parents have specialized settings on their computers to prevent kids from getting into trouble. Similarly, you can put your kids on a separate network with its own rules and parameters. Censorship. I know AOL, back in the day when I first was learning how to work a PC, when I was a mere Neophyte, Greenhorn. At the time, my sister had, when she was there, she had AOL. Oh my God, all I did is hear about protection, protection for your children, protection, security, it all had to do with kids. It's like when Senator Frank Lautenberg was alive, all he talked about is our children, education, our children. Hey, it's not my problem that you know, you got a thousand and one grandchildren and everything. I don't have any kids. I should not have to change my lifestyle. I should not have to put the board sign in my car just because, you know, someone else has kids. I don't like censorship. I never did. If you're in the market for a new router and you want improved Wi-Fi speeds, look for an 802.11 AC router with dual or triple band capabilities. AC routers are a step up from the old B, G and N models. If you wanted to, you could keep your older 2.4 gigahertz router on its own band and add the newer AC device on a higher band. Some people have big houses and they quickly find that Wi-Fi only extends so far. This is James P. Madonna of MegaLife 21 hard hitting podcast holistic health talk and progressive discussions. I want to talk about the very foundation of our entire organization the newsletter that was founded by my co-host and mentor the Reverend Dr. William J. Isman in 1977.

And now we return to the second half of this. You want to finish that last sentence of the that Wi-Fi website? Hold off and investigate a sovereign S-A-E-V-I-E-R option of a mesh network. This system uses two or three different devices which work together to blanket your environment. While a Wi-Fi extender might require several network names and give you uneven cover a mesh network is all part of the same system so you should always get a consistent signal. It's some good sound advice for people that just rely on Wi-Fi.
