So look at that headline right there: “Republicans and Democrats Clash Over Police Reform.” You know what this is about? This is about an actual piece of legislation that is being argued and debated in the United States Senate.Īnd I did a double take because that’s not how laws are made in our country anymore. What’s this? That was obviously audio from a Trump rally, one of the many that occurred before the election last November. You can see it in the people that showed up for this inauguration who didn’t show up four years ago for the Trump inauguration, and I have to tell you, ladies and gentlemen, I just - (crowd chanting “We love you! We love you!”) Wait a minute. You can hear it in the way they’re singing their songs. You can hear it in the words they’re saying to each other. They think they finally have vanquished all of their opposition. I’m watching these people at the Biden inauguration. I have such a range of emotion flowing through my arteries and veins, going to my heart and away from my heart. RUSH: Greetings to you, music lovers, thrill-seekers, conversationalists all across the fruited plain.
O’Rourke put it, he said, ‘If you think health care is expensive now, just wait ’til you see how much it costs when it’s free,’ and that’s exactly what we’re doing here.
It makes the separation between the patient and the doctor and health services further and further removed, and takes away all control of costs. I mean, one of the ways controlling costs is making people responsible for their own money, for their own expenditures and that is exactly what this program does not do. Without going through the specific numbers - although I’d be more than happy to do that - you know, whenever you separate people from the purchases they make… If you walked into a store and weren’t told what anything cost and you could pick out whatever you wanted free, you’re going to be squanders, you’re going to buy things that are way too expensive that you don’t want. LAFFER: Well, you know, it’s a fairly straightforward thing. After all this, it would still leave 30 million Americans uninsured.’ Fill in the blanks here for us. ‘The current proposals being discussed in Washington, House and Senate, would raise the total federal government expenditures by 5.6% more than otherwise, adding $285.6 billion to the deficit in 2019, would increase national health care spenders by an additional 8.9%. Let me just run through a couple bullet points and then you can take it and expand on this. RUSH: Well, I thank you very much for that. LAFFER: You impressed me enormously then as well as today. LAFFER: I don’t know if you remember, Rush, but I was on your show in studio in Sacramento, California, many, many years ago. LAFFER: A minion? Minion, minion! Oh, my gosh!
RUSH: You were a minion doing dirty deeds. When classmates in college asked me just what it was that a community organizer did, I couldn’t answer them directly instead I’d pronounce on the need for change, change in the White House where Reagan and his minions were carrying on their dirty deeds.’
I didn’t know anybody making a living that way. You may not know this, but you are partially responsible for Obama becoming a community organizer, from chapter 7, page 54 of his book, Dreams from My Father: ‘There wasn’t much detail to the idea of community organizer. RUSH: By the way, I want to share something with you. Laffer, ever since I first heard of you back in the late seventies, early eighties. Arthur Laffer, ladies and gentlemen, who has prepared a research paper on the Obama health care plan.
