Welcome to the latest edition of looking out for you. Let's get started. Maybe my most controversial commentary that I've done on YouTube. And I've got to deal with it. I don't really want to, but I have to deal.

So you remember on October 7th, 27th, I should say, October 27th, October 27th. Tucker Cawson had a guy on his podcast, Nick Fuentes, all right. So Mr. Fuentes is a young man, 27 years old, political commentator, and he's far, far, far right. And not only that, but he rewrites history. He's kind of likes Hitler in the Third Reich. He doesn't like Jews very much. And a lot of things he says are anti-Semitic, in my opinion. He would say they're not, but you can decide that for yourself.

But he raises the question of anti-Semitism in America. And that is what we're going to deal with tonight, because you need to know about it in a fair and fact-based analysis. So let's start off with a soundbite from Fuentes and Carlson. Go. And what you're saying about putting aside the tribal interest for the corporate interests, that's absolutely the case. And that's the only way the country is going to stay together.

Exactly. That's my concern. And I absolutely agree with you. I would say, though, that the main challenge to that, a big challenge to that, is organized jewelry in America. Organized jewelry is offensive. to Mr. Fuentes, and apparently Mr. Carlson agrees that there's some kind of organized jewelry. Okay, and now I'm not quite sure where that is. They have an office. Can I go visit?

Every ethnic group in its country has organizations, okay? You have Italian, you have Irish, you have Polish. They all have clubs and fairly organized. Some of them have political action committees that legislate on their behalf to try to get whatever they want put in front of the public. So it's not paramount in the United States. But, you know, if you look at New York City, we got little Italy, we got Chinatown, we got Woodside where the Irish people are and people band together because they have commonality. And the Jewish people do that too. But is there some kind of organized thing that's doing something wrong?

All right. So if Fuentes apparently objects to support for Israel, I'm an Irish guy. I support Israel. I understand why Israel is the way it is. Because millions of people would kill all the Jews. So that's why they've got to have a strong defense. They can't be tolerating terrorism or they'll be dead. It's as simple as that.

All right, so Fuentes goes on there and he says this stuff about organized jewelry. And I'm going, what are you talking about? All right? He doesn't define it. Now, earlier, a few years ago, he did define how he believes. and it's scary. Roll that tape. Let's just get the Hitler thing out of the way.

Do you actually admire Adolf Hitler? In some ways, yes. And I'm not a national socialist, and I'm not a, you know, I wouldn't identify that way because I'm a Christian. So I'm not any kind of a socialist or a fascist. I, like Ye, believe we should have a Christian government. It's Christian country.

God runs the world. We should have a government in accordance with that. But honestly, I don't share this histrionic Jewish view that Hitler is this exceptionally boogeyman, evil figure. Now, that is really frightening. Now, I don't care what Nick Fuentes says. I don't care. He doesn't know anything. He's dumb.

If he reads my book Confronting Evil, which is 100% fact-based, You'll see what Hitler and the Third Reich did to Jews. Now, there's no two sides to that story. There's one story. It's documented. If you want to think it isn't, that's your neurosis. But believe me, when you go out and peddle this stuff that Hitler is not an eagle figure? I mean, that's just off the chart.

That's the kind of stuff that disqualifies you. from the court of public opinion. So I'm not going to book anybody that on my program, even though I can debate them into pudding in about two minutes. Why bother? Why give them a forum? They haven't earned it. This is stupid.

You can say and make up anything you want. Right? That's what I told Bill Maher over the weekend. And if you want to see some of that, it's on Bill O'Reilly.com. But I said, well, Mar didn't have Maher. No, I didn't have them on. I mean, why would you put people like a guy down?

That's so irresponsible and hateful. Because millions of Jewish people lost ancestors who were burned alive or brutalized in camps run by Nazis. And Hitler ordered it. Hitler wanted it. Hitler did it. And you got a punk like Fuentes running around saying Hitler's not an evil figure? So he disqualifies himself.

Now, most people know that, but then it comes down to, well, if you're an analyst or a podcast or something, shouldn't all sides be heard? Roll the tape on that. Now, let's talk about Tucker Carlson platforming Nick Fuentes. I would never platform Nick Fuentes. I would just never do. There's no click or view that's worth highlighting someone who is an absolute lunatic who's detrimental to humanity, period. I mean, to put Joseph Stalin on a pedestal, the 10 to 18s of data, you just don't do it. All right, so I come down on that side. I mean, I'm not going to, I'm obviously a believer in free speech, but why legitimize

somebody who doesn't know anything or maybe they're not quite right? I'm not going to do that. All right, let me run down a few things so you can get this into perspective. But that ignited the anti-Semitism debate in America. That ignited it, that back and forth because of social media with Mr. Carson is very powerful. It reads a lot of people. Okay, there are 7.5 million Jewish Americans. There's 341 million of us and only 7.5 Jewish Americans.

It's this cabal? Come on. Come on. It's, there's just no numbers. All right, New York, L.A., Miami. That's where most of the Jews live in America. 23% of Jewish homes, households, earn 200,000 or more. That creates envy. So Jewish Americans work very hard. A lot of my business people are Jewish. Now, I've known them for decades. because they're very good at what they do. I'm Irish. They're Jewish. I raised in Levittown. There were Jewish kids all over the place. I never had a problem, ever.

I don't know what it is. I just don't know what it is. Why would you pick out Jewish Americans for any scorn? For what? Now, anti-Semitism began more than 3,000 years ago because, all right, the Egyptians subjugated the tribes that evolved into Jews. You saw the Ten Commandment movie, Charlton Heston, Yule Brenner, and they were slaves. The Jews were slaves under the Egyptians. And then the Jews escaped.

All right. And then they formed a bigger tribe. And the tribe clashed over land and culture because the Jewish people believed in a certain God and a certain theology. Enter Jesus, okay, who was a preacher in what is now Israel, Palestine. Now, the Romans who governed that territory back then, they despised the Jews. They thought they were the lowest precincts and vice versa. The Romans taxed them up to here. And Jesus was a Jew.

And Jesus was attracting all of these crowds, thousands of people showing up. And I write about it in killing Jesus, which is a history book, not religious. The Romans basically came to the conclusion, Punch's Pilot, was the governor. This guy's not worth the trouble. because the Jewish authorities in the temple at Jerusalem, they were jealous of Jesus. They were any part of Jesus. He was taking away their power. So they solicited the Romans to kill him, and the Romans did.

Then Christianity developed that after Jesus died, and some Christians blamed the Jews for killing Jesus, which is not historically accurate. The San Edron didn't like him, but they didn't have the power to kill him. Only the Romans did. Then Rome collapses and the middle of Europe descends into chaos. There is a sin in a Catholic Christian religion called usury. You know what usury is? That's lending money for a profit.

Big sin back then. So the only people who could lend money in medieval Europe were Jews. When the money was not paid back, some Jewish landlords, money lenders, took the land, took the home. That lit another fuse of anti-Semitism that exists to this day. that combination of Jesus and money lending formed the anti-Jewish feeling, which then exploded in World War II. And it wasn't used to Hitler. Stalin hated the Jews, Ukraine, Romania, you name it. And the Third Reich, the Nazis tried to wipe out the entire population of Jews.

And they got more than 6 million of them. After World War II, Jews had nowhere to go. Nobody wanted to take them in in Europe. Nobody. So they petitioned the British who own land in the Middle East. Yeah, they owned it. They took it over. And then with the help of President Harry Truman in 1948, Israel, the country was established.

So the Jews had somewhere to go to protect themselves. Ever since then, there's been conflict between the Arabs and the Jews. One more thing. So the Prophet Muhammad, he shows up in the 6th century AD. Okay, he's born in 570 AD, Anno Domini, I use that. And he grows up to be the Prophet of Islam. He clashes with Jews. All right.

Political land. And that formed the rivalry between Islam and the Jewish faith. You could see if you're Jewish, you've got everybody coming after you. Now, America is a tolerant place. And there's a poll. Washington Post. All right, September. How safe do you feel is a Jew in the USA?

This is only among Jewish Americans, okay? Safe, 70% less safe, 30%. That tells you that there really isn't rampant anti-Semitism in this country. And I believe it, I've been all over. As I said, my experience, I didn't have any problem ever. I got a Jewish friend, Jeff Cohen, goes back to six years old. And as I said, all my business people, I'm going to what is this? So the two areas that are fueling anti-Semitism in America today are the far-left progressives who hate Israel, hate that country.

fascist, genocide, you name it. That was the college stuff last year. Vile. Vile. Progressives hated Israel. And by extension, some of them hate Jews. Then you get the far right. Nick Fuentes, neo-Nazi people.

I'm not calling Fuentes a neo-Nazi. I don't know them. But he accurately reflects their point of view. There are many of those people. There are far more progressives who hate Israel than neo-Nazis that hate Jews. Not many neo-Nazis, thank God. But still today, I think, if you ask any Jewish-American, they're out to be here. Okay, because we are not a nation that embraces anti-Semitism as a whole.

You know, I was in California over the weekend, and then I was up in New England on a way back, and people outside of New York, the New York metro area, they call all 16 million of us. Can you imagine that? 16 million people. You wonder why traffic is so bad? Well, they don't really understand this Mam Donnie thing. the way that we do, because we see it, we live it, and the national media doesn't really care about it, number one, and number two, falsely reports a lot of things.

So I was on a Bill Maher program on HBO Friday night, and everybody in L.A. is talking about, you know, Mandani in New York, because L.A.'s got a little bit of an inferiority complex to New York City. the second largest city, but we double them really in city population. L.A. counties, because county in the country. But it's a whole lifestyle thing. So people in California are supposed to be laid back, they get the nice weather, and then New Yorkers are aggressive, and our weather is so-so, but there's a rivalry, a rivalry. So I knew Mar was going to ask about Mandani, why wouldn't he?

that's the big story, political story last week. And here's how that went down. Go. I mean, here's a Mandami quote from his speech. He said, we will prove that there is no problem too large for government to solve. Yeah, wait till he gets into government. I can tell Bill O'Reilly thinks that's ridiculous.

This is so crazy. Look, first of all, he won because he was running against Bella Legosi, all right? I told Andrew Pormo, why don't you just campaign with a cape off? I'm turned into a bat. The guy was as dour as possible. I mean, that is a good campaigner.

I mean, the guy was smiling. You know, when are you going to come to your house and take your stuff, he's going to smile. Thank you for the couch. Bring it on out. Well, I'm just going to, tonight, let's give him a week, okay? I've been critical. Let's give him a week.

Just say just congratulations. Oh, that's fair. You know, give him a week. if I had to make a major bet, I would say in three months, that's 12 weeks, and we'll start to feel pain of a 34-year-old socialist in charge of the nation's largest city, where the police don't like him. And I do believe that the commissioner, Jessica Tisch, is going to stay on. I do believe that will happen. And it could be hard for her because the cops are going to be under pressure by civilian review boards, the city council.

And, you know, then she's got to stand next to Man Donnie. She's a Jewish woman. He doesn't particularly like Jews. You know, there's a lot of cultural there. But I do have it from good authority that she will probably stay in that position. and she likes the job. You know, and her rationale would be, look, if I walk away, more bad things are going to happen,

at least I can do some good by staying as commissioner. And I would never challenge that at all. I wouldn't tell or suggest to Commissioner Tish that she walk. But I will tell you that, man, Dane is a problem. He's going to be an administrative problem, a philosophical problem, and that will manifest itself. They call it unintended consequences, okay? And you don't know, but his point of view is so extreme,

and it's not based on reality. I mean, he can't fund all these programs, and he's got to butt heads with Albany. Hogle is in dire straits up there. The more she supports him, the more likely it is she'll lose to the Republican, next year. And she could boot it out of that.

She got to worry about a primary. Hogle does. From the left, they're going to primary her from the left. That's why she's, you know, supported a man Donnie. Anyway, complicated thing, but I figured you'd like to hear that soundbite from Marr. He was a quintessennial Los Angeles. And, you know, I used to like going out there.

And I don't really anymore. And my whole crew felt the same way. And we got on a plane coming back, and nobody was going, ah, boy, can we stay a couple extra days? There's just some heavy shroud over that whole city, Los Angeles. And unfortunately, I think it's coming here to New York. Rudy Giuliani, legendary New Yorker. I met him when I was anchoring Inside Edition. He was our criminal justice correspondent.

because he was a U.S. attorney. It was before he was mayor. So Giuliani did one of the best jobs ever running the city of New York. Drove crime down, a tough guy, honest, I believe. And his mayoralty should be the template. Of course, it isn't, but it should be for how to run the biggest city in the country. He got into trouble, and I don't know Mayor Giuliani that well. He's been to my home.

And, you know, I know him to the extent that when I see him, we have conversations, but I'm not a confidant of his. But I did tell him, I didn't mention one time to be very careful with the 2020 election fraud charges. And I didn't know at the time. I mean, I was open to, if it happened, I'm going to report it. But we never got enough evidence to make that determination. And that's what we don't do speculation. We don't do wishful thinking. We don't do any of that here, as you know.

So Giuliani got involved with the fraud allegation in the election of 2020 because he was a top advisor to President. Trump who lost the election and didn't like it and said it was fraud. Giuliani, 77 years old right now. He's 73 when all his crazy stuff. No, I'm sorry. He was 72 when everything started. And he has been charged and sued and bankrupted and everything.

So over the weekend, President Trump issued a proclamation providing a part of for Mayor Giuliani and a few others involved in 2020. Didn't get a lot of coverage. And the pardon is basically symbolic because Giuliani doesn't have any criminal activity against him now in the federal arena. Georgia is still going after him, but that case is falling apart

because it's corrupt in Fulton County. I don't think it's ever going to get anywhere. Remember, the president cannot pull pardon you from a state charge, only federal. So, but Trump wanted to make a statement about Giuliani and those who helped him in the 2020 election, and that's why he issued this. Now, I feel very bad for Rudy Giuliani, and even though I knew that bad things were going to happen to him and others, it's not.

I told you so, because the man is a hard worker, government service, I did work for some law firms, but he wasn't a money guy. It wasn't like Nancy Pelosi compiling millions and millions of dollars through his public service. And then he had to sell off some of his memorabilia, he had to declare bankruptcy. Oh, what a nightmare. I had to move out of New York, down to Florida because in Florida no matter what happens to you they can't take your home

okay they have a homestead act in Florida where in New York if you get screwed and you lose lawsuits or the government finds you they can take your house in Florida they cannot so Giuliani's down in Palm Beach area somewhere

I'm not in touch with him But I don't really like what happened to him. And I think a lot of it was vengeance on the left. And right now, he's still in the hook for millions and millions of dollars. And about $350,000 in administrative fees on and on and on. And he didn't have it. Doesn't have the money. So for a guy who's 77 years old, it's supposed to be your sunset years where you don't have to deal with this amazing amount of stress, he does.

And that's why I feel bad for him. Okay. So that's where Mayor Giuliani is. I'm going to make an attempt to see him when I go down to Florida this winter just to make sure that, you know, if he needs something done, I'm out of service. because, you know, as I said, I'm sympathetic to him. So, Mayor-elect Ma'am Donnie says he's going to call the White House, roll the tape. Do you plan to call President Trump? I will be reaching out to the White House as we prepare to actually take office,

because this isn't a relationship that will be critical to the success of the city. So it wasn't just a hypothetical scenario on our debate stage. You're actually going to call him. What will you say? Well, I'll say that I'm here to work for the benefit of everyone

that calls the city home. I don't know if President Trump's going to take that call. I hope he does. I think it's the right thing to do. Ma'am Donnie is the mayor of the nation's largest and most important city. But I don't know if he will or not. We'll follow that story.

Now, the reason Mamdani has to call Trump, and he's got to be nice, can't be disrespectful, can't be arrogant, none of that, is because the federal government, in 2006, the upcoming fiscal year that we're in now, because the fiscal year and the federal government starts in October, has earmarked $7.4 billion in federal funding. to New York City 7.4 billion from the feds that's 6 and a half of the total spending 6.5% 1⁄2% Department of Education Department of Housing

Children's Services temporary assistance for the poor some homeless stuff but not a lot so the money is coming in Now, if Ma'am Donnie disregards the Constitution, for example, or promotes anarchy by harming the New York City police, and he's threatened to do that by cutting a billion dollars from the budget, Trump's going to stop that money. Now, that'll cause lawsuits and angst. The progressives in Congress will jump up and down. But you know President Trump, Mandani steps out of line, there's any trouble at all, ice agents are attacked in New York City, anything like that, that money's going to stop. And the city will go down even faster.

So Mammani has to reach out. Boy, do I hate that cliche. Oh, geez. to the President of the United States and try to say, look, I'm not as crazy as you think I might be. I really want to work together for the benefit of all. If he puts it that way, maybe Trump will give him a chance. I don't know. Okay?

But there comes a point where Zoharhan Mamdani is going to have to, grasp the reality. You heard, Governor Hokel said, ah, we don't have the money to give you four free buses. So free buses is gone already, already gone, not going to have free buses. Because Mbani doesn't have the money, I think it's $800 million a year that would cost. And the state in New York doesn't have the money to give him because both the city and the state are in massive debt because they spend so much on entitlements. and union contracts and on and on, you know the drill.

Now, we have other things that are in play free child care. That's not going to happen. That's more expensive than the free buses. Now, Hogle says, well, I have some money for that, but where do you see? So, Mamdani rode in on Free, Free, Free, Free, and I don't know. I'm looking at it. I'm not seeing a lot of this. Final point. One of his hallmarks, the new mayor, is that he doesn't want to send the cops into potential criminal situations like domestic disturbances. Well, if you know anything about the police, you know that some of the most dangerous encounters are domestic calls.

Because you don't know what you're getting. You don't know if there's weapons in the house. You don't know how irrational the people are. Mandani is going to send in social workers without knowing what kind of danger lies behind the door. Unarmed social workers are going to go in there? No, it's not happening. Not going to happen. And it's my job to point out reality to Zaharhan

Mamdani, and I will continue to do that. I have said ever since Mandani announced he was going to run for mayor if he wins that Kathy Hokel is toast this time next year. November 3rd, 2006, I believe she'll lose. Now there is a new poll, but it's too early. I know it'd be fair to Governor Hockel. This is a very early poll. J.L. Partners, which is an independent market research firm. Here's what they asked.

If the 26th election governor of New York held today, who would you vote for? Hocel 46, Elise Stefanik, 43, don't know 11. Wow, that's a tie. Second question, if the election held today, would you vote to reelect Hockel, or do you think it's time for somebody new? All right, reelect Hocal, 18 firm, 19 maybe, time for. someone new, 55. Final question, do you approve the job? Kathy Ogle's doing as governor in New York.

Approved 40, disapproved 54, don't-know-six. Where are you don't-knows? At least to find a good campaigner, you're going to have a lot of money at run up against Hokel. The more man Donnie screws up, the worse it is for Hokkel, because she endorsed it with a little hand up in the air, you know, the whole thing. So I'm sticking with my prediction.

A lot of people think I'm crazy, but I'm pretty good at these things. So on the shutdown front, my congress from Tom Swazi was one of six Democrats in the House to vote to open the government. Way to go, Mr. Swazzy. Laura Gillan on the south shore of Long Island, no. No. So she wants to keep it closed and then get money for millions of people who can't afford health care or something along those lines.

How could you vote to keep the thing closed after 43 days when you know the Republicans aren't going to okay COVID spending on Obamacare no matter what? Come on, let's get into the real world and help the folks. You shut down her in a lot of New Yorkers, a lot. And you're into some theoretical world, oh, we know, well, look, if you win the midterms, the Democrats I'm talking to now, then you can start spending crazy stuff again. $38 trillion debt. And you'll hear in the body of common sense tonight how that's threatening all of us.

There's a segment on that. Democratic Party didn't seem to know or care about that. And I'm not a party guy. I don't know why the Republicans don't have any health care plan. What are they doing? That's one of the most important issues. So a lot of people have given up on New York, and they're moving out and yelling and screaming.

I have not. I told Sid this morning, Sid and friends, I'm staying. You know, I'm going to fight the good fight because this is the home court right here for me. And I'm very comfortable. My places where I live, the communities are excellent. They treat me very respectfully.

I try to help them out when I can. I have a good dynamic. I mean, going to Tennessee at my age, you know, it's a nice state, but it's not New York. I mean, the options alone. Even Florida, you get out of Florida, I'm not a golfer. If you're a golfer, it's a whole different thing. I'm not a pickleballer.

So what am I going to do down there other than annoy people? So, I mean, you can go in the water, the ocean is nice, but there's only so much of that because the options for entertainment, sports, a discourse. It's the action, the action we have in New York. So if they pass a wealth tax, I'll have to go. That'll drive me out and a million other people. And they may if Hockel continues her swing to the left. But again, I don't think she's got a hold on re-election at all. We're going to the Democratic Socialist Precincts. Bernie Sanders, Ocasio Cortez, Mandani, and a whole bunch of other people.

Here to stay. It's not a fad. Here to stay. Lots of Americans, millions and millions and millions, want the government to take care of them. They're willing to sacrifice their freedom. their freedom, a lot of their money. They have the government nanny state.

And the far left is what they want. Got to put that word democratic in front of the Socialists because people do vote here. So let's go to Sweden. Been to Sweden, nice country. When I go to Stockholm, I stay in Ghamla Stann, which is the old quarter of the city. the city and then you can't go in the winter it's 14 below zero um but i'd say from may 1st

until october 15th sweden's nice place okay very laid back um stuff to do in stockholm and then it goes way up to the arctic circle if you want to tour around it's not as pretty as norway norway is beautiful of yords um but Sweden is Sweden. It is a socialist country, democratic, because it votes. So here are the stats. You love the stats, right? Population of Sweden, 11 million, okay, overwhelmingly pale Swedes, Scandinavians, Vikings, 2% Syrian, 1% Iraqi. So I don't have any minority over there at all. It's all one race, the Nordic race. USA, of course, has 3143 million people, so a little bit different than 11 million.

Median household income in Sweden, $60,000. That's not a lot of Kroner. They don't have Kroner anymore. They have the EU. 60K. However, everything is controlled by the government. at the rates of your rent, I think you can buy a home independently, but everything's artificially kept down. So anyway, median income, average, I should say, average annual wage in Sweden,

$60,000. In the USA, it's $84,000. No, we're living a lot better than they are in Sweden. Unemployment in Sweden, ready? 8.4%. That's a lot of people in a country of 11 million not working. Why? Because you don't have to work. The government will give you whatever you want. Why go to work? In the USA is 4.3.

8.4% unemployment in a nation of 11 million. There's a lot of people who are just walking around. Because they know, why should I work for 60,000? When I was over to the last time, bombing around, and I wanted to get a late lunch. I got about 1.30 in the afternoon. Nothing was open. Siesta, hello. From 1.30 to 3.30 or 4, all the Swedes are racked out.

Nothing open. In the middle of the prime day. And I said to one guy, and everybody speaks English in Sweden, what you can make some money staying open because all your competition is closed and he goes government to take it why make it they're in

okay so here are the tax rates we have a top rate in America at 37% federal income tax you get state you get city if you live in New York on and on it never ends okay bottom rate 10 and that's about 24, $25,000, but below that you don't pay anything.

In Sweden, it's 35%. Okay? Across board. And they have a different system, so you don't pay it to the government in Stockholm. You pay local. Okay, I don't know how that works out. Crime, much lower in Sweden than here. They don't have a lot of crazy stuff, but they have a lot of drugs.

They have a lot of drugs running around over there, big drug market. Immigration, we have 52 million foreign nationals living in the USA. Sweden has 2.2 million, which when you have 11 million total, that's a pretty big number. Okay? 21% of the population is foreign-born, in Sweden, and in America, it is, I can't find it. 35%. No, it can't be that. Anyway, it's much higher than that.

So we have an immigration. Everybody wants to come here. I don't think a lot of people pounding to get into Sweden other than the refugees from North Africa or anywhere. Can you imagine going from Africa to Sweden? Just climate-wise. So I'm not down on Sweden. If you want to live there, you can have a nice life. But you're not going to hit it big.

Okay? You're not. You'll have your Volvo. You'll have your one and a half kids, but you're not going to have any backup. But the argument from the socialist is you don't need it because once you retire, government pays your pension, pays all your health care, pays everything. The problem is that it's not as good. So you want a knee replacement in Stockholm. The people who have assets, they go to France or America. Because there's not many doctors, because you can't make any money. Everything is controlled, and you lose freedom. I'm a big capitalist because I came from nothing, no money at all, zero. I got out of Boston U. I had zero money. And now I've made it pretty big because of the capitalism of the United States. If I were in Sweden, they would have paid for my college there.

But where am I going then? TV, anchor in Stockholm, I'm not going to make very much money. So you're treating, you're trading opportunity, America for security, Sweden. Okay, we know we're getting all of this. Child care never ends. We're getting it. But it's not top-notch, okay, because they can't afford top-notch, even though they only have 11 million because the tax base is so low. And they don't want any more. Sweden passed

laws to limit immigration. They don't want a lot of people running around over there. They're liberals, but now when it comes to immigration, do. So socialism is here in America and it's not going to go away because of the public school system. And parenting, the combo. So many urchins today are coddled. They give in everything. When I was tan, I'd cut lawns, I shoveled snow in Levitown. I made some money, but I was out there scrambling. If I wanted ice cream, I had to make the money to buy the ice cream from good humor.

Now, you can buy the good humor truck for little Freddie. So everything is there. And then these kids get out of school and they go, well, wait, I don't have a big house. I don't have a brand new Mercedes. I wear it. Come on. I want it. I want free stop.

School doesn't teach competition. Doesn't teach capitalism the way it used to because it might offend somebody. When I taught history in Miami in a ghetto, okay I told those kids you can make it big or you can be a drug addict and a gutter it's on you and if you become dependent on drugs or anything else you can fail and you'll live in a slum I was pretty blunt and I had parents complain Oh, my Sally came back very upset. Oh, good.

Okay, Sally's 17 years old. You need to wise up about the world. So I've been always a proponent of our system that provides opportunity. But Europe, they don't want that. Generally speaking, they don't want it. They want to be guaranteed security. Are they wrong? I can't say that.

It's wrong for me. I wouldn't live there. But for them, if they put security over opportunity, it's their choice. But here in the USA, more and more and more young people, they want stuff. Now, I know that's oversimplifying, and we have a party that caters to that, the progressive wing of the Democratic Party. Oh, yeah, here, here, here you go. It was amusing when Mandati gets elected one day. gets elected one day later, the governor in New York,

Hockel, says, we don't have enough money to get free bus rides. Couldn't have said that a week before, madam? Of course not. Of course not. That would be being honest with the folks. I don't think it would have made a difference, but, you know, so there's not going to be free bus rights or free food or free health care. I don't even think they get to health care done here.

They can't. Child care. Maybe they'll subsidize it a little bit. They could probably do that by gutting the paychecks of New Yorkers and taxing everything. Probably do that. He'll have to try. But again, I'm not a final thought here. I'm not a anything goes capitalist.

There has to be oversight on the greedy corporations, like the insurance corporations, is that a killing everybody now? Got be some oversight. Rules. Rules. Fair rules. But I don't want to be living in Sweden. Thank you for listening to looking out for you.
