I usually listen to every word you say, and I believe you. Yesterday I was having a rough day, as it seems you were. But I really got sick of you referring to unemployed people as people who don\u2019t want to work. You were talking about California\u2019s debt and you kept referring to the unemployed as people that don\u2019t want to work. Well, I don\u2019t live in California but I am unemployed, I\u2019m 52, I\u2019m female, and I\u2019m sick that it\u2019s so difficult to find work. I\u2019m not proud to be unemployed. I certainly wish I was gainfully employed. Don\u2019t tell me and everybody else that we\u2019re happy to be unemployed and afraid to go to work. <\/p>\n<p>Finally some spunk! If the e-mail was from California I\u2019d feel better about this.<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: I want to get back to the angry e-mail from Patty, who was fit to be tied. She said she had to turn my show off yesterday because I kept referring to the unemployed as people who don\u2019t want to work. I was referring specifically yesterday to California where they are paying $40 million a day to pay people to not work. Forty million dollars a day. &#8216;I\u2019m not proud to be unemployed,\u2019 said Patty. &#8216;I certainly wish I was gainfully employed. The unemployment rate is almost 10% by the government numbers. You and I know it\u2019s much higher than that. Please stop referring to me and millions of others who work 20, 30 years or more and now have to find work in this terrible economy as people who don\u2019t want to work. Thank you.\u2019 <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125110.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"250\" class=\"alignright\"\/>Well, I understand the sentiment, and I\u2019m happy, frankly, to see such spunk. I\u2019m happy that somebody got all fit to be tied over being characterized as somebody who didn\u2019t want to work. That gives me hope. As I say it\u2019s just a shame the e-mail doesn\u2019t come from somebody in California. What we have been saying on this program, folks, for the longest time, the purpose, the number one objective of the Democrat Party is to establish a permanent underclass. That\u2019s the root to the real number one priority, which is reelection. They want to get as many people as possible dependent on the government. They\u2019ve done it in spades over the last four years and especially now under Obama with Obamacare. And the purpose of this debt panel report is to lock that in, to lock in an expanded government with 22% of GDP being spent by the government. They want to create and preserve a permanent underclass. They believe that\u2019s their only chance of holding onto their jobs and their power. Nobody else wants their policies. They\u2019re literally trying to make it so that they are the reason people have food. <\/p>\n<p>Why do you think that Democrats come up with school breakfast, school lunch, and school dinner? Yes, there\u2019s now school dinner, and it ain\u2019t gonna be long before there\u2019s school midnight buffet, and then school snack. All of this is to buy votes, and it bothers me, it bothers me greatly. One of the reasons I was fit to be tied yesterday is because I just get sickened over the human destruction that takes place with the Democrat Party in power, with liberalism, with leftists. They destroy people\u2019s dreams, ambition. They take away their humanity and they make \u2019em forever dependent. What do you get when you\u2019re dependent? You get nothing and you always are agitated, and you\u2019re always living in fear that somebody\u2019s gonna take it away from you. You never learn how to provide for yourself. You end up resenting those who do. So we have a permanent class struggle created by the Democrat Party, created by the American left on purpose for their own power circumstances. <\/p>\n<p>My tipping point yesterday was those schlubs over in the UK protesting tuition increases at university. Well, I got two stories today. One is from the French News Agency, and the other one is the UK Telegraph. &#8216;Benefits Culture is &#8216;National Crisis\u2019, says Iain Duncan Smith.\u2019 He\u2019s the Work and Pensions Secretary in the UK. The Work and Pensions Secretary, this, I guess, is the equivalent of the head honcho of the Social Security administration, right? Here\u2019s the story: &#8216;Iain Duncan Smith has described Britain\u2019s welfare dependency culture &#8211;&#8216; and we\u2019re headed there, folks, thanks to the Democrat Party, and that\u2019s what this deficit panel is trying to create. &#8216;&#8211; as a &#8216;national crisis\u2019 as he unveiled his reforms to the benefits system,\u2019 and there\u2019s that word. I just recoil at the word &#8216;benefits.\u2019 Obama uses it all the time, talking about your benefits. You gotta get your benefits. We are training people that what government is is a source of benefits. And they\u2019re always paid by somebody else, namely you and me. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125110.Par.4584.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"189\" class=\"alignright\"\/>&#8216;The Work and Pensions Secretary also said that it was a &#8216;sin\u2019 that British workers are not capable of competing for jobs with foreigners.\u2019 Hello, United States of America. &#8216;Unveiling what has been billed as biggest reform of the welfare system in 60 years, Mr Duncan Smith said 1.5million people had been out of work and on benefits for nine out of the past 10 years.\u2019 You\u2019ve been munching Doritos on the couch for nine out of ten years and you are beyond hope. You\u2019re sitting out there with Twinkies and Doritos, what the hell else are you gonna get when you\u2019re on pension, unemployment benefits? Some benefit. Speaking at the Arlington Centre in Camden, he said: &#8216;In prosperous times, this dependency culture would be unsustainable. Today it is a national crisis.\u2019 He added: &#8216;There is something wrong in our system.&#8221; Really? Who knew. &#8221;Our reforms are about reconnecting that group of people parked out of sight of the rest of us.\u2019 Mr Duncan Smith said that his reforms to the benefits system meant that &#8216;it will always pay for you to take a job\u2019.\u2019 What a concept. Can you believe this? <\/p>\n<p>The British government has gotten to a point where they have to convince people that it will pay to take a job, as opposed to seeking benefits. &#8216;Around four million jobs were created in the economic boom from the mid 1990s but 4.5 million remained on out of work benefits before the recession had started. He said a new Universal Benefit would lift 350,000 children and 500,000 working age adults out of poverty, while the number of &#8216;workless households\u2019 would be cut by 300,000.\u2019 Workless households. Workless households. Kind of like Food Justice. &#8216;The new scheme would also mean that 700,000 people on low wages would be able to keep more of their earnings by 2017. He said: &#8216;We want them to see the opportunities of work.\u2019 &#8230; Mr Duncan Smith added that the changes were a recognition that &#8216;as a political class we have got this wrong for too long.&#8221; Okay, now, that\u2019s the UK Telegraph story. Of course, the fact that would come to the biggest surprise to many people in this country is that businesses do not operate to provide benefits, and the government doesn\u2019t exist to provide benefits. <\/p>\n<p>Now, I can just imagine all these little New Castrati sissies sitting out there dialing their phones trying to get through to me to tell me what a mean, rotten scoundrel I am; about how I have no compassion, and it\u2019s just the exact opposite. I want the best for everybody, and it ain\u2019t found in government benefits, it\u2019s not found on the unemployment line. I\u2019m sorry, that\u2019s not where it\u2019s found. So you get this UK Telegraph story focusing on benefits. The French News Agency headlines it this way: &#8216;Government to Stop Benefits for Some Unemployed &#8212; The coalition unveiled plans to withhold handouts &#8211;&#8216; I kinda like that language. &#8216;The coalition unveiled plans to withhold handouts for up to three years for those who refuse a job Thursday in the biggest shake-up of the post-war welfare state, a day after violent protests rocked London.\u2019 This is the real reason for those protests yesterday. It had nothing to do with tuition. You had two groups out there protesting. You had the students, and we were told in the news aftermath that there was to be a peaceful protest, the students exercising their wonderful human rights to go out and protest the rising cost of tuition, blah, blah, but then the anarchists heard about it and the anarchists ran out there and the story in the UK press last night was the anarchists hijacked the protest, turned it violent and went to the home of the Tories, their headquarters, the conservatives, and started kicking in windows of the office building where they are. <\/p>\n<p>Now, I guaran-damn-tee you the anarchists were not showing up because of college tuition increases. The anarchists are showing up because of this. The anarchists were showing up because the government\u2019s pension and work secretary was talking about the end of handouts. The anarchists were the ones carrying signs that said, &#8216;Free Education or up yours.\u2019 Free education, why not just have a free everything? &#8216;The government also plans a &#8216;universal credit\u2019 instead of the current system of separate benefit payments for housing and childcare as part of reforms aimed at cutting Britain\u2019s massive deficit. &#8230; &#8216;This government is unashamedly pro-work,\u2019 Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith said in a speech to a volunteer group before he unveiled the plans before parliament.\u2019 This guy is gonna start more riots with this kinda talk. In fact, I\u2019m convinced that this is what caused the riots yesterday. So the government wants to introduce a sliding scale of penalties for those who either decline a job offer or fail to apply for a job they are advised to or don\u2019t turn up for mandatory four week manual labor placements. <\/p>\n<p>You know, welfare now accounts for a third of government spending in the UK, welfare, one-third of government spending. When you have to have austerity programs, because it\u2019s not sustainable, they don\u2019t have the money to do this, no society ever does, no government, via taxes, whatever. It just can\u2019t be sustainable. So, when they have to pull it back, all these poor people have been conditioned to think this is what life is, they\u2019re of course gonna raise hell. And we\u2019re looking at our future here. We see it right in front of us. And there are ways to avoid this, by the way. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Hey, Rush, I\u2019m a 24\/7 member.
