NOTE Confidence: 0.75166075

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.128
All right, Ed. First of all,

NOTE Confidence: 0.75166075

00:00:01.130 --> 00:00:03.308
just big question off the top.

NOTE Confidence: 0.75166075

00:00:03.310 --> 00:00:05.860
Why are you running for governor? The

NOTE Confidence: 0.909578105789474

00:00:05.870 --> 00:00:08.510
governor really has an immense ability

NOTE Confidence: 0.909578105789474

00:00:08.510 --> 00:00:11.626
to bring positive change to the state

NOTE Confidence: 0.909578105789474

00:00:11.626 --> 00:00:13.761
quickly because the governor has

NOTE Confidence: 0.909578105789474

00:00:13.761 --> 00:00:15.126
oversight over the state's budget,

NOTE Confidence: 0.909578105789474

00:00:15.126 --> 00:00:16.530
and if you change the way

NOTE Confidence: 0.909578105789474

00:00:16.579 --> 00:00:17.747
that you fund government,

NOTE Confidence: 0.909578105789474

00:00:17.750 --> 00:00:19.790
you will change the government itself.

NOTE Confidence: 0.909578105789474

00:00:19.790 --> 00:00:20.870
And I'm a finance guy.

NOTE Confidence: 0.909578105789474

00:00:20.870 --> 00:00:22.184
I think it's really powerful because

NOTE Confidence: 0.909578105789474

00:00:22.184 --> 00:00:23.858
if you want the truth in politics,

NOTE Confidence: 0.909578105789474

00:00:23.860 --> 00:00:25.018
you have to follow the money

NOTE Confidence: 0.909578105789474

00:00:25.018 --> 00:00:26.305
and I know exactly what's going

NOTE Confidence: 0.909578105789474

00:00:26.305 --> 00:00:27.480
on in the state government.

NOTE Confidence: 0.909578105789474

00:00:27.480 --> 00:00:28.775
I think it's time for some change.

NOTE Confidence: 0.846389852307692

00:00:29.350 --> 00:00:31.646
More on that. The why are you the

NOTE Confidence: 0.846389852307692

00:00:31.646 --> 00:00:33.470
right person for the job? Because

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:00:33.480 --> 00:00:35.768
I don't just take the data that's given

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:00:35.768 --> 00:00:38.462
to me by the corporate lobbyists and by

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:00:38.462 --> 00:00:40.979
the directors of the various agencies.

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:00:40.980 --> 00:00:43.372
I my biggest critique of a lot of

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:00:43.372 --> 00:00:45.677
the career politicians we have now.

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:00:45.680 --> 00:00:47.112
They believe everything they're

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:00:47.112 --> 00:00:49.698
told is the gospel truth and the

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:00:49.698 --> 00:00:51.578
people presenting that kind of

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:00:51.578 --> 00:00:53.560
information have a political agenda.

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:00:53.560 --> 00:00:55.632
I am somebody who asks a lot more

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:00:55.632 --> 00:00:57.789
questions to get to the root of problems,

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:00:57.790 --> 00:01:00.706
and I take a deep dive and figure out.

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:01:00.710 --> 00:01:02.201
And This is why I say follow

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:01:02.201 --> 00:01:03.030
the money because it.

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:01:03.030 --> 00:01:04.934
Tells you exactly what is going on and

NOTE Confidence: 0.922943761818182

00:01:04.934 --> 00:01:06.558
where we're investing our resources

NOTE Confidence: 0.859975246

00:01:07.090 --> 00:01:09.030
for this part of it, you can only name one,

NOTE Confidence: 0.859975246

00:01:09.030 --> 00:01:11.838
but what is your top priority and why?

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:12.370 --> 00:01:14.426
School choice. No doubt,

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:14.426 --> 00:01:17.510
family should have more educational options,

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:17.510 --> 00:01:18.994
and wherever the families

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:18.994 --> 00:01:20.849
want to enroll their children,

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:20.850 --> 00:01:22.546
I think the tax star should follow their

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:22.546 --> 00:01:24.206
kids to the school of their choice.

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:24.210 --> 00:01:26.583
This is really a powerful issue for

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:26.583 --> 00:01:28.888
everybody here in the state of Idaho.

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:28.890 --> 00:01:30.318
Not only will it navigate some

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:30.318 --> 00:01:31.662
of the divisiveness and the

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:31.662 --> 00:01:33.038
contention that we're experiencing.

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:35.110
In our communities across this state,

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:35.110 --> 00:01:38.182
but it'll allow families to take

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:38.182 --> 00:01:39.921
control over their children's

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:39.921 --> 00:01:41.328
future and ensure that they have an

NOTE Confidence: 0.899084818

00:01:41.328 --> 00:01:42.360
education that meets their needs.

NOTE Confidence: 0.908305532

00:01:42.370 --> 00:01:45.490
So do you support? Using.

NOTE Confidence: 0.908305532

00:01:45.490 --> 00:01:47.674
Public tax money for vouchers for parents

NOTE Confidence: 0.908305532

00:01:47.674 --> 00:01:49.977
to send their kids to private school?

NOTE Confidence: 0.956316655714286

00:01:50.230 --> 00:01:52.785
Absolutely yeah, I believe public

NOTE Confidence: 0.956316655714286

00:01:52.785 --> 00:01:54.569
or private that families should

NOTE Confidence: 0.956316655714286

00:01:54.569 --> 00:01:56.087
choose how their kids get educated.

NOTE Confidence: 0.956316655714286

00:01:56.090 --> 00:01:57.805
I don't believe in institutionalized

NOTE Confidence: 0.956316655714286

00:01:57.805 --> 00:01:59.520
one size fits all model

NOTE Confidence: 0.872853796

00:01:59.570 --> 00:02:01.118
and the way I understand it

NOTE Confidence: 0.872853796

00:02:01.118 --> 00:02:02.150
though that's not constitutional.

NOTE Confidence: 0.872853796

00:02:02.150 --> 00:02:04.068
The way the Idaho Constitution is written.

NOTE Confidence: 0.840048495454545

00:02:04.430 --> 00:02:05.798
Well, we'll have to let the

NOTE Confidence: 0.840048495454545

00:02:05.798 --> 00:02:06.930
attorneys hammer that one out.

NOTE Confidence: 0.840048495454545

00:02:06.930 --> 00:02:08.994
But the reality is that we need to

NOTE Confidence: 0.840048495454545

00:02:08.994 --> 00:02:10.464
implement those kind of changes

NOTE Confidence: 0.840048495454545

00:02:10.464 --> 00:02:11.660
in education families across

NOTE Confidence: 0.840048495454545

00:02:11.660 --> 00:02:13.290
the state are demanding it.

NOTE Confidence: 0.840048495454545

00:02:13.290 --> 00:02:14.448
So if it if it needs,

NOTE Confidence: 0.840048495454545

00:02:14.450 --> 00:02:15.416
if the Constitution.

NOTE Confidence: 0.840048495454545

00:02:15.416 --> 00:02:17.026
Needs to be amended well.

NOTE Confidence: 0.840048495454545

00:02:17.030 --> 00:02:18.590
Then let's get the process started.

NOTE Confidence: 0.884715376666667

00:02:18.740 --> 00:02:21.435
Over the last few years the legislature

NOTE Confidence: 0.884715376666667

00:02:21.435 --> 00:02:24.449
and the governors have pumped quite a bit

NOTE Confidence: 0.884715376666667

00:02:24.449 --> 00:02:26.780
more money into the education budget.

NOTE Confidence: 0.884715376666667

00:02:26.780 --> 00:02:29.636
Would you support that if you win to

NOTE Confidence: 0.884715376666667

00:02:29.636 --> 00:02:31.759
keep increasing funding for teacher

NOTE Confidence: 0.884715376666667

00:02:31.759 --> 00:02:34.009
pay and technology? Things like that.

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:02:34.200 --> 00:02:36.209
Teachers would make a lot more money

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:02:36.209 --> 00:02:38.077
under a school choice model than

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:02:38.077 --> 00:02:39.967
they ever have under this broken

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:02:39.967 --> 00:02:41.727
model we have right now because

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:02:41.727 --> 00:02:43.936
the funding is going to follow the

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:02:43.936 --> 00:02:46.414
schools and schools that choose to.

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:02:46.420 --> 00:02:48.300
Compensate their teachers and teachers

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:02:48.300 --> 00:02:51.061
could be rewarded for the an entrepreneurial

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:02:51.061 --> 00:02:53.527
spirit by starting their own schools.

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:02:53.530 --> 00:02:54.898
It'll allow them to really take

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:02:54.898 --> 00:02:56.306
control of their pay. So yeah,

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:02:56.306 --> 00:02:58.290
I do believe we need to make significant

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:02:58.350 --> 00:03:00.230
investments in the rising generation.

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:03:00.230 --> 00:03:01.010
It's important,

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:03:01.010 --> 00:03:05.049
but we need to invest it in the right way.

NOTE Confidence: 0.88738417

00:03:05.050 --> 00:03:05.710
Do you believe

NOTE Confidence: 0.897650526470588

00:03:05.720 --> 00:03:07.485
that critical race theory is

NOTE Confidence: 0.897650526470588

00:03:07.485 --> 00:03:09.250
being taught in Idaho's public

NOTE Confidence: 0.897650526470588

00:03:09.313 --> 00:03:11.168
schools and and why or why not?

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:11.500 --> 00:03:13.264
I don't believe it. I know it.

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:13.270 --> 00:03:14.330
It's an absolute fact,

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:14.330 --> 00:03:16.288
and it's really a shame that this

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:16.288 --> 00:03:17.848
isn't something that gets more.

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:17.850 --> 00:03:19.574
Beverage I'll share with

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:19.574 --> 00:03:21.298
you some recent examples,

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:21.300 --> 00:03:22.900
but Boise State University.

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:22.900 --> 00:03:25.300
They have a racial inventory quiz

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:25.373 --> 00:03:27.263
and then it asked the question

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:27.263 --> 00:03:29.576
what event led to the rise of

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:29.576 --> 00:03:31.216
the idea of white supremacy?

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:31.220 --> 00:03:33.411
And according to them they say it's

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:33.411 --> 00:03:35.170
the Declaration of Independence?

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:35.170 --> 00:03:37.660
That's a betrayal that is not

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:37.660 --> 00:03:39.879
ethical or moral to teach an entire

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:41.600
generation to hate this nation,

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:41.600 --> 00:03:43.900
but particularly K12 level I've

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:43.900 --> 00:03:46.708
seen with my own eyes posters

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:46.708 --> 00:03:48.740
that high school students.

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:48.740 --> 00:03:50.786
Created them over in Bonneville County,

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:50.790 --> 00:03:53.390
even saying things like white

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:53.390 --> 00:03:55.470
people are genetically defective

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:55.470 --> 00:03:57.330
descendants of albino mutants.

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:57.330 --> 00:03:58.550
This is hateful, it's evil.

NOTE Confidence: 0.86037935

00:03:58.550 --> 00:04:00.098
It doesn't belong in our schools.

NOTE Confidence: 0.892267688571428

00:04:00.650 --> 00:04:03.858
The state recently passed one of the most

NOTE Confidence: 0.892267688571428

00:04:03.858 --> 00:04:06.030
restrictive abortion bans in the country,

NOTE Confidence: 0.892267688571428

00:04:06.030 --> 00:04:08.352
banning abortions after six weeks of

NOTE Confidence: 0.892267688571428

00:04:08.352 --> 00:04:10.334
pregnancy and allowing family members

NOTE Confidence: 0.892267688571428

00:04:10.334 --> 00:04:12.548
to sue doctors who perform abortion.

NOTE Confidence: 0.892267688571428

00:04:12.550 --> 00:04:13.990
It's being challenged, of course.

NOTE Confidence: 0.892267688571428

00:04:13.990 --> 00:04:16.066
Do you believe that was the

NOTE Confidence: 0.892267688571428

00:04:16.066 --> 00:04:17.900
right bill for this time?

NOTE Confidence: 0.89248794

00:04:18.750 --> 00:04:20.634
Absolutely this this entire

NOTE Confidence: 0.89248794

00:04:20.634 --> 00:04:22.989
country we're missing over 60

NOTE Confidence: 0.89248794

00:04:22.989 --> 00:04:25.419
million Americans today since Roe,

NOTE Confidence: 0.89248794

00:04:25.420 --> 00:04:27.597
V Wade, and it's a real travesty.

NOTE Confidence: 0.89248794

00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:28.064
And I have to.

NOTE Confidence: 0.89248794

00:04:28.064 --> 00:04:29.795
I mean, what are we missing from

NOTE Confidence: 0.89248794

00:04:29.795 --> 00:04:31.640
science and culture and the arts?

NOTE Confidence: 0.89248794

00:04:31.640 --> 00:04:33.568
Because 60 million people

NOTE Confidence: 0.89248794

00:04:33.568 --> 00:04:35.496
never got their chance.

NOTE Confidence: 0.89248794

00:04:35.500 --> 00:04:37.880
We need to embrace our

NOTE Confidence: 0.89248794

00:04:37.880 --> 00:04:39.308
the rising generation,

NOTE Confidence: 0.89248794

00:04:39.310 --> 00:04:40.303
our future potential,

NOTE Confidence: 0.89248794

00:04:40.303 --> 00:04:41.958
not not terminate them before

NOTE Confidence: 0.89248794

00:04:41.958 --> 00:04:43.870
they ever get their opportunity.

NOTE Confidence: 0.890595774

00:04:44.260 --> 00:04:46.490
Do you support any exemptions?

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:04:47.480 --> 00:04:49.976
I don't believe abortion is inappropriate.

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:04:49.980 --> 00:04:51.756
Measure at all. The reality is,

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:04:51.760 --> 00:04:53.608
I understand that there are a number

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:04:53.608 --> 00:04:55.286
of members of the legislature and

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:04:55.286 --> 00:04:57.211
the like who want to ensure that

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:04:57.268 --> 00:04:59.278
there's exemptions for rape or incest.

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:04:59.280 --> 00:05:01.150
Specifically, in my own life,

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:01.150 --> 00:05:02.798
one of the people that had one of

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:02.798 --> 00:05:04.563
the most profound impacts on my life

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:04.563 --> 00:05:06.260
was actually a product of incest.

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:06.260 --> 00:05:09.560
And so these are tragic scenarios.

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:10.792
But those people too,

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:10.792 --> 00:05:12.332
they they have an incredible

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:12.332 --> 00:05:14.139
potential and something to offer this.

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:14.140 --> 00:05:16.695
This world I would I personally like

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:16.695 --> 00:05:19.199
to see abortion abolished entirely.

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:19.200 --> 00:05:20.268
I understand that.

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:20.268 --> 00:05:22.760
That's going to take time to get

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:22.832 --> 00:05:25.765
people to start to realize how we're

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:25.765 --> 00:05:28.070
really undercutting our own potential.

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:28.070 --> 00:05:29.990
Our own growth as a nation,

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:29.990 --> 00:05:32.096
but every step in that direction

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:32.096 --> 00:05:34.470
to restrict it is something that

NOTE Confidence: 0.931127638333333

00:05:34.470 --> 00:05:35.817
I would celebrate

NOTE Confidence: 0.865864792727273

00:05:36.150 --> 00:05:38.025
the legislature and the governor

NOTE Confidence: 0.865864792727273

00:05:38.025 --> 00:05:40.728
just approved the largest tax cut tax

NOTE Confidence: 0.865864792727273

00:05:40.728 --> 00:05:44.196
relief package in the state's history.

NOTE Confidence: 0.865864792727273

00:05:44.200 --> 00:05:47.089
Do you think more tax cuts should be enacted

NOTE Confidence: 0.865864792727273

00:05:47.089 --> 00:05:49.508
next year and what is your tax plan?

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:52.378
Well, and this is where it

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:05:52.378 --> 00:05:53.970
becomes a giant shell game.

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:05:53.970 --> 00:05:56.616
Again, any step in that direction.

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:05:56.620 --> 00:05:59.260
I again I celebrate that.

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:05:59.260 --> 00:06:01.492
But when you're getting massive injections

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:01.492 --> 00:06:04.220
of money from the federal government,

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:04.220 --> 00:06:06.278
we are that that money all comes.

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:06.280 --> 00:06:07.230
It doesn't come with strings.

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:07.230 --> 00:06:09.642
Attached comes with chains attached and

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:09.642 --> 00:06:12.210
you have bureaucrats in Washington DC.

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:12.210 --> 00:06:13.430
They don't know what bathroom.

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:13.430 --> 00:06:15.294
To use, they want to tell us how

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:15.294 --> 00:06:17.277
we need to educate kids in Idaho.

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:17.280 --> 00:06:18.776
I think that a lot of that money,

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:18.780 --> 00:06:20.876
some of it were rightfully owed a payment.

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:20.880 --> 00:06:22.156
Lower taxes, for instance.

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:22.156 --> 00:06:24.920
But much of it is very problematic.

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:24.920 --> 00:06:26.600
I think it was a step in the

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:26.600 --> 00:06:27.698
right direction to reduce it.

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:27.700 --> 00:06:28.880
If I were elected governor,

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:28.880 --> 00:06:30.350
I would abolish the personal

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:30.350 --> 00:06:31.820
income tax in the state,

NOTE Confidence: 0.798757853636364

00:06:31.820 --> 00:06:34.580
abolish it absolutely.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87880958

00:06:33.200 --> 00:06:34.570
How do you replace it? Well, the

NOTE Confidence: 0.920889303333333

00:06:34.580 --> 00:06:37.084
first thing we need to stop doing is

NOTE Confidence: 0.920889303333333

00:06:37.084 --> 00:06:39.868
cutting $50 million tax deals with

NOTE Confidence: 0.920889303333333

00:06:39.868 --> 00:06:41.956
multinational corporations like Facebook,

NOTE Confidence: 0.920889303333333

00:06:41.960 --> 00:06:44.738
like our governor. Just did that.

NOTE Confidence: 0.920889303333333

00:06:44.740 --> 00:06:46.948
That is completely out of control.

NOTE Confidence: 0.920889303333333

00:06:46.950 --> 00:06:48.006
These multinational corporations.

NOTE Confidence: 0.920889303333333

00:06:48.006 --> 00:06:50.470
They don't have Idaho's interests at heart.

NOTE Confidence: 0.920889303333333

00:06:50.470 --> 00:06:53.410
They can pay taxes, but the working

NOTE Confidence: 0.920889303333333

00:06:53.410 --> 00:06:56.100
class members are retired citizens.

NOTE Confidence: 0.920889303333333

00:06:56.100 --> 00:06:57.654
The small and medium sized business

NOTE Confidence: 0.920889303333333

00:06:57.654 --> 00:06:59.641
owners of this state they ought to be

NOTE Confidence: 0.920889303333333

00:06:59.641 --> 00:07:01.420
rewarded for the fruits of their laborers

NOTE Confidence: 0.893670323888889

00:07:01.770 --> 00:07:03.906
you mentioned on your website that

NOTE Confidence: 0.893670323888889

00:07:03.906 --> 00:07:06.597
you would replace the income tax with

NOTE Confidence: 0.893670323888889

00:07:06.597 --> 00:07:08.587
surplus and also cash investments.

NOTE Confidence: 0.893670323888889

00:07:08.590 --> 00:07:09.950
And I forget what the third one was.

NOTE Confidence: 0.893670323888889

00:07:09.950 --> 00:07:13.478
But is that enough to replace the roughly 6%?

NOTE Confidence: 0.893670323888889

00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:16.000
I'm sorry to replace the income tax.

NOTE Confidence: 0.893670323888889

00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:16.609
As it stands,

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:16.940 --> 00:07:19.140
the income tax brings about $2 billion a

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:19.140 --> 00:07:21.639
year in revenues to the state government.

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:21.640 --> 00:07:23.250
What a lot of people don't realize

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:23.250 --> 00:07:24.979
and so often we hear politicians.

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:24.980 --> 00:07:26.090
They talk about the general fund,

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:26.090 --> 00:07:28.436
but there are over 360 funds

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:28.436 --> 00:07:30.000
in the state government.

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:32.359
They're sitting well on over $8 billion

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:34.238
in cash and short term investments.

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:35.938
This is not including the pension,

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:35.940 --> 00:07:37.048
nobody's going after Percy.

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:37.048 --> 00:07:38.710
We need to protect that for

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:38.761 --> 00:07:40.016
the people who earned it,

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:40.020 --> 00:07:41.637
but I'm all for a rainy day

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:41.637 --> 00:07:43.298
fund that's I wouldn't be doing

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:43.298 --> 00:07:45.104
my job as a financial advisor.

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:45.110 --> 00:07:46.726
If I didn't advocate for rainy day funds,

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:46.730 --> 00:07:48.774
we need to have that intact here,

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:48.780 --> 00:07:51.132
but the rainy day fund is about 400

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:51.132 --> 00:07:52.920
and something million $8 billion.

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:52.920 --> 00:07:54.446
This is this is out of control.

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:54.450 --> 00:07:56.682
We are severely overtaxed and we

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:56.682 --> 00:07:59.072
have a government that has over

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:07:59.072 --> 00:08:00.740
200 governmental bodies now.

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:08:00.740 --> 00:08:03.236
108 / 180 agencies, 20 departments.

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:08:03.240 --> 00:08:04.530
It's out of control, growth,

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:08:04.530 --> 00:08:06.114
and in three years this governor

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:08:06.114 --> 00:08:07.780
has grown the state government.

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:08:07.780 --> 00:08:11.067
When you measure by expenditures by 32%,

NOTE Confidence: 0.826480744

00:08:11.067 --> 00:08:12.888
it's completely inappropriate.

NOTE Confidence: 0.884604571111111

00:08:13.290 --> 00:08:15.468
But then you can take away the tax cuts.

NOTE Confidence: 0.884604571111111

00:08:15.470 --> 00:08:17.494
On that side of it, and the fact that

NOTE Confidence: 0.884604571111111

00:08:17.494 --> 00:08:19.050
it's being given back to the people,

NOTE Confidence: 0.884604571111111

00:08:19.050 --> 00:08:20.560
you consider that an expenditure

NOTE Confidence: 0.91996973

00:08:20.710 --> 00:08:22.165
we're getting money from the

NOTE Confidence: 0.91996973

00:08:22.165 --> 00:08:23.329
federal government right now.

NOTE Confidence: 0.91996973

00:08:23.330 --> 00:08:25.016
So no, that's not an expenditure.

NOTE Confidence: 0.91996973

00:08:25.020 --> 00:08:28.550
An expenditure is providing salaries,

NOTE Confidence: 0.91996973

00:08:28.550 --> 00:08:30.149
resources, welfare payments,

NOTE Confidence: 0.91996973

00:08:30.149 --> 00:08:31.840
things like that. So

NOTE Confidence: 0.821582334

00:08:31.850 --> 00:08:32.660
I guess my question was,

NOTE Confidence: 0.821582334

00:08:32.660 --> 00:08:34.148
does that? Doesn't that kind of

NOTE Confidence: 0.821582334

00:08:34.148 --> 00:08:35.140
balance out the expenditures?

NOTE Confidence: 0.877522026666667

00:08:35.750 --> 00:08:37.745
Not when you're getting tons of money

NOTE Confidence: 0.877522026666667

00:08:37.745 --> 00:08:39.967
from the federal government that subjugate

NOTE Confidence: 0.877522026666667

00:08:39.967 --> 00:08:42.147
Idaho agencies to federal bureaucracies.

NOTE Confidence: 0.877522026666667

00:08:42.150 --> 00:08:45.470
Look, anybody can offer tax cuts and balance.

NOTE Confidence: 0.877522026666667

00:08:45.470 --> 00:08:48.175
Budget when they're getting massive

NOTE Confidence: 0.877522026666667

00:08:48.175 --> 00:08:50.339
billions billion dollar infusions

NOTE Confidence: 0.877522026666667

00:08:50.339 --> 00:08:52.640
from the federal government,

NOTE Confidence: 0.877522026666667

00:08:52.640 --> 00:08:55.608
this is not a fiscally feasible plan.

NOTE Confidence: 0.877522026666667

00:08:55.610 --> 00:08:57.218
This is it's out of control.

NOTE Confidence: 0.927916302307692

00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:00.952
In general, what do you see as the

NOTE Confidence: 0.927916302307692

00:09:00.952 --> 00:09:03.093
biggest challenge facing Idaho in 2022

NOTE Confidence: 0.927916302307692

00:09:03.093 --> 00:09:06.237
and going into 2023 when the new governor

NOTE Confidence: 0.927916302307692

00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:08.186
or the current governor will continue on?

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:08.800 --> 00:09:11.688
Right now we have a major issue with

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:11.688 --> 00:09:13.760
housing prices across this state.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:13.760 --> 00:09:16.604
Again, there our education system has

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:16.604 --> 00:09:18.942
developed a complete obsession with

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:18.942 --> 00:09:21.854
getting all the young people in the state.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:21.860 --> 00:09:25.568
Getting into a college program

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:25.568 --> 00:09:28.136
and then working in an office.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:28.140 --> 00:09:29.650
But people need to build

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:29.650 --> 00:09:30.858
roads and build homes,

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:30.860 --> 00:09:32.967
and if somebody enjoys turning a wrench,

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:32.970 --> 00:09:33.730
that's fantastic.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:33.730 --> 00:09:34.870
They're creating immense

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:34.870 --> 00:09:36.390
value for their communities.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:36.390 --> 00:09:38.016
I'll tell you the whole unemployment

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:38.016 --> 00:09:39.570
rate conversation is a complete.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:39.570 --> 00:09:40.890
It's all political theater.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:40.890 --> 00:09:42.540
There's all sorts of exemptions

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:42.540 --> 00:09:43.969
and six different tiers.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:43.970 --> 00:09:45.346
If you want to know a real statistic,

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:45.350 --> 00:09:47.211
look at labor force participation, right?

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:47.211 --> 00:09:48.618
And this is how we're going to

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:48.618 --> 00:09:50.009
fix the housing price crisis.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:50.010 --> 00:09:52.733
10 years ago we had a 72%

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:52.733 --> 00:09:54.002
labor force participation,

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:54.002 --> 00:09:55.271
which essentially saying

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:55.271 --> 00:09:57.209
who's 16 years and older,

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:57.210 --> 00:09:58.402
what proportion of them

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:58.402 --> 00:09:59.296
are gainfully employed.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:09:59.300 --> 00:10:01.004
Yourself employed today.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:01.004 --> 00:10:04.426
It's down to 62% and part of the reason

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:04.426 --> 00:10:06.442
we're taking these kids out of the

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:06.442 --> 00:10:08.325
labor force takes five to six years.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:08.330 --> 00:10:09.848
Now to get a bachelor's degree,

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:09.850 --> 00:10:11.964
they're saddled with all sorts of debt.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:11.970 --> 00:10:15.570
I would offer more vocational training.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:15.570 --> 00:10:16.950
Let's get more people out there,

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:16.950 --> 00:10:18.494
building homes and increasing

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:18.494 --> 00:10:20.424
the supply of those homes.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:20.430 --> 00:10:23.598
We'll make sure with increase availability

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:23.598 --> 00:10:26.478
that prices stabilize so that family

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:26.478 --> 00:10:28.686
members can stay in this state,

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:28.690 --> 00:10:29.047
but.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:29.047 --> 00:10:30.832
People can live in the

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:30.832 --> 00:10:32.260
communities where they work.

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:32.260 --> 00:10:33.874
We have to make serious changes

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:33.874 --> 00:10:35.279
to the labor force pipeline

NOTE Confidence: 0.935899303076923

00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:37.204
right now it's way out of whack.

NOTE Confidence: 0.76212722

00:10:37.620 --> 00:10:39.874
Why aren't there enough employees right now?

NOTE Confidence: 0.76212722

00:10:39.880 --> 00:10:41.931
I mean, we see so many businesses

NOTE Confidence: 0.76212722

00:10:41.931 --> 00:10:43.768
that have to close down or,

NOTE Confidence: 0.76212722

00:10:43.770 --> 00:10:45.450
you know, for a couple days a week

NOTE Confidence: 0.76212722

00:10:45.450 --> 00:10:46.926
or they make adjustments because

NOTE Confidence: 0.76212722

00:10:46.926 --> 00:10:48.930
and we're talking across the board.

NOTE Confidence: 0.76212722

00:10:48.930 --> 00:10:50.740
I mean, agriculture, we're talking,

NOTE Confidence: 0.76212722

00:10:50.740 --> 00:10:52.980
you know, stores and restaurants.

NOTE Confidence: 0.76212722

00:10:52.980 --> 00:10:54.905
They're all struggling to find

NOTE Confidence: 0.76212722

00:10:54.905 --> 00:10:56.670
enough employees. Why? Well,

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:10:56.680 --> 00:10:58.736
we're missing a tenth of our labor force.

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:10:58.740 --> 00:10:59.576
As I just said,

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:10:59.576 --> 00:11:01.250
that's a big part of the reason.

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:11:01.250 --> 00:11:02.237
The other part you have to look.

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:04.416
We have a labor force about 750,000

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:11:04.416 --> 00:11:06.628
members of our labor force right now,

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:11:06.630 --> 00:11:10.298
but there's 125,000 Idahoans on welfare

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:11:10.298 --> 00:11:12.214
in this state that's outrageous.

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:11:12.214 --> 00:11:13.499
There are more jobs than

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:11:13.499 --> 00:11:14.940
people to fill them and look.

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:11:14.940 --> 00:11:15.760
You're talking to somebody

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:11:15.760 --> 00:11:17.200
who grew up as a little boy.

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:18.580
I ate food bank food.

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:11:18.580 --> 00:11:20.700
I grew up on the other side of the tracks.

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:11:20.700 --> 00:11:21.843
These welfare programs,

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:11:21.843 --> 00:11:23.367
in their current state.

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:11:23.370 --> 00:11:25.326
Are out of control and there's

NOTE Confidence: 0.89425856375

00:11:25.326 --> 00:11:27.658
so much waste and abuse on them.

NOTE Confidence: 0.860607443333333

00:11:27.730 --> 00:11:28.876
Let me ask you this question.

NOTE Confidence: 0.860607443333333

00:11:28.880 --> 00:11:29.750
And then I have one more.

NOTE Confidence: 0.860607443333333

00:11:29.750 --> 00:11:32.768
So what will you do about?

NOTE Confidence: 0.860607443333333

00:11:32.770 --> 00:11:34.390
When I say managing rapid growth,

NOTE Confidence: 0.860607443333333

00:11:34.390 --> 00:11:35.590
I don't mean curtailing it,

NOTE Confidence: 0.860607443333333

00:11:35.590 --> 00:11:37.711
but I mean how do you approach

NOTE Confidence: 0.860607443333333

00:11:37.711 --> 00:11:39.120
managing the rapid growth,

NOTE Confidence: 0.860607443333333

00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:40.596
especially that the valley is seeing?

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:11:41.450 --> 00:11:43.280
Well, I believe growth should

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:11:43.280 --> 00:11:45.110
pay for itself right now.

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:11:45.110 --> 00:11:46.772
The reason nobody knows what their

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:11:46.772 --> 00:11:48.676
next property tax bill is going to

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:11:48.676 --> 00:11:50.164
be is because they're figuring out

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:11:50.164 --> 00:11:52.207
what to bill everyone for the new

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:11:52.207 --> 00:11:53.371
infrastructure and new services

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:11:53.380 --> 00:11:55.366
that are are to be provided.

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:11:55.370 --> 00:11:56.315
My tax plan.

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:11:56.315 --> 00:11:58.205
I'm advocating that we cap property

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:11:58.205 --> 00:12:00.266
taxes so when you go to buy a home,

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:00.270 --> 00:12:01.704
you know what the total annual

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:01.704 --> 00:12:03.210
property tax bill will be on that.

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:03.210 --> 00:12:06.140
Home for your entire lifetime,

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:06.140 --> 00:12:08.090
and certainly there will need

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:08.090 --> 00:12:10.040
to be minor small adjustments

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:10.108 --> 00:12:11.958
for inflation along the way,

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:14.466
but what that will do that will

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:14.466 --> 00:12:15.898
force municipalities across the

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:15.898 --> 00:12:17.680
state of Idaho to ensure that

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:17.680 --> 00:12:19.060
growth pays for itself.

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:19.060 --> 00:12:20.920
And there are other funding mechanisms

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:20.920 --> 00:12:23.008
to ensure that they get the money

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:23.008 --> 00:12:24.580
they need to continue to grow.

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:24.580 --> 00:12:26.596
But it's not right to be saddling

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:26.596 --> 00:12:28.116
especially for our our senior

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:28.116 --> 00:12:29.910
citizens on a fixed income that

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:29.910 --> 00:12:31.895
are getting priced out of their

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:31.895 --> 00:12:33.555
homes now because of skyrocketing.

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:33.560 --> 00:12:34.724
Unpredictable property taxes.

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:34.724 --> 00:12:37.052
We're gonna fix it and make

NOTE Confidence: 0.851305408

00:12:37.052 --> 00:12:38.418
growth pay for itself.

NOTE Confidence: 0.797373921818182

00:12:38.570 --> 00:12:40.545
Finally, what is the biggest

NOTE Confidence: 0.797373921818182

00:12:40.545 --> 00:12:42.860
opportunity you see that Idaho has?

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:12:43.940 --> 00:12:46.514
I think right now we have to lead out

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:12:46.514 --> 00:12:49.512
in a very bold way and start to reveal

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:12:49.512 --> 00:12:51.896
to America what has been going on.

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:12:51.900 --> 00:12:54.972
We have been taken advantage of by these

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:12:54.972 --> 00:12:56.556
multinational giant corporations and

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:12:56.556 --> 00:12:59.160
we have far too many politicians that

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:12:59.160 --> 00:13:02.019
are bought and paid for by those kind

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:02.019 --> 00:13:03.890
of organizations and they're hurting

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:03.890 --> 00:13:06.380
our state and they're advocating for

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:06.380 --> 00:13:08.718
policies that aren't right for Idaho.

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:08.720 --> 00:13:11.420
But in particular, I'll name the

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:11.420 --> 00:13:13.760
healthcare systems in this state.

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:13.760 --> 00:13:15.979
Are are completely out of control and

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:15.979 --> 00:13:18.551
the Idaho Code grants the governor the

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:18.551 --> 00:13:20.891
ability to require an investigation into

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:20.953 --> 00:13:23.270
any corporation of the State of Idaho.

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:23.270 --> 00:13:25.470
If I were elected governor,

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:25.470 --> 00:13:27.468
I would investigate the three largest

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:27.468 --> 00:13:29.170
healthcare systems in this state.

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:29.170 --> 00:13:30.406
I have one question.

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:30.406 --> 00:13:32.260
We gave them hundreds of millions

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:32.320 --> 00:13:34.210
of federal and state tax dollars.

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:34.210 --> 00:13:36.730
What did they do with all our money?

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:36.730 --> 00:13:38.522
Because they didn't expand

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:38.522 --> 00:13:39.866
their treatment capacity?

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:39.870 --> 00:13:41.250
This is something that needs

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:41.250 --> 00:13:42.078
to be investigated.

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:42.080 --> 00:13:43.450
The members of this community.

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:43.450 --> 00:13:44.209
People who lost?

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:44.209 --> 00:13:45.221
Friends and families deserve

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:45.221 --> 00:13:46.350
to know an answer.

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:46.350 --> 00:13:48.066
What they did with hundreds of

NOTE Confidence: 0.9359858848

00:13:48.066 --> 00:13:49.670
millions of our tax dollars

NOTE Confidence: 0.881935932727273

00:13:49.770 --> 00:13:52.754
wasn't that for the types of things like

NOTE Confidence: 0.881935932727273

00:13:52.754 --> 00:13:54.607
personal protection equipment ventilators,

NOTE Confidence: 0.881935932727273

00:13:54.607 --> 00:13:57.469
the things that were COVID specific

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:13:57.650 --> 00:13:59.626
Doug, I will tell you somebody leaked one

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:13:59.626 --> 00:14:01.235
of these healthcare systems financials to

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:01.235 --> 00:14:03.730
me and I had a chance to review myself.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:03.730 --> 00:14:05.226
That's a cute story,

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:05.226 --> 00:14:07.990
but that's nothing more than a story.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:07.990 --> 00:14:09.390
No, there's a lot more to this.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:09.390 --> 00:14:11.142
I hope to see some serious

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:11.142 --> 00:14:12.018
investigations into it.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:12.020 --> 00:14:12.976
And by the way,

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:12.976 --> 00:14:14.860
the last four 990 that came out of.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:14.860 --> 00:14:16.528
Saint Lukes, their CEOs,

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:16.528 --> 00:14:19.176
now making over $10 million a year.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:19.176 --> 00:14:21.122
I'm sick of that kind of stuff.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:21.130 --> 00:14:22.720
We are done with these games

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:22.720 --> 00:14:24.803
where they cash in on our tax

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:24.803 --> 00:14:26.408
dollars and they hire corporate

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:26.408 --> 00:14:28.371
lobbyists that enact the policies

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:28.371 --> 00:14:30.047
that benefit their organizations.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:30.050 --> 00:14:31.184
I'm coming after them and we're going

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:31.184 --> 00:14:32.508
to get to the bottom of the look,

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:32.510 --> 00:14:34.080
my wife's a healthcare worker.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:34.080 --> 00:14:37.916
My recently deceased mother was a nurse.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:37.920 --> 00:14:39.432
You know people can try to attack me and

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:39.432 --> 00:14:40.837
make it about the healthcare workers.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:40.840 --> 00:14:41.350
It's not.

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:41.350 --> 00:14:43.135
It's about the executives and it's time

NOTE Confidence: 0.87322001826087

00:14:43.135 --> 00:14:45.008
to give them a run for their money.

NOTE Confidence: 0.612649093333333

00:14:45.670 --> 00:14:46.948
Ed, thank you.
