Hillary's $20 Billion Gift
OCTOBER 01, 2007

GLENN BECK PROGRAM
BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

GLENN: So then we have, on the other side we have Hillary Clinton and her new $20 billion baby giveaway. $20 billion. She wants to give every child born here in America $5,000. I'm not sure. Does that include illegal aliens? Does that include me? I mean, do I get a $5,000 stipend? Does Mitt Romney get a $5,000? Does she -- God forbid she ever -- do billionaires get that or is it just the poor, tired, the huddled masses? She is -- let me tell you something. She is not -- she wants to call herself a Progressive because she doesn't like the word Liberal because it's turned into something else, she says. So she doesn't want to be called a Liberal. She wants to be called a Progressive, in the same fashion that Progressives were in the early 20th century. Well, those, the Progressives of the early 20th century were the ones who brought you the prohibition. I believe they are the ones who brought you the income tax. You know, they're quite fun, those Progressives. They're the ones who say basically we know better than you do if you don't get it, and this is honestly where it all started. If you don't get it, if you don't agree with me, you're either stupid or you're in on it. She wants to spend $20 billion, $5,000 every child born in America. Every time there's a birth, the Government just writes another check. How is she funding that? She's going to fund it by taking money from the rich. She wants to call herself a Progressive? She's not a Progressive. She's a Socialist. Let's just get the terminology right. She is a Socialist, and what we have coming down the pike is nothing less than full on socialism. While the rest of the world is retreating from socialism, we for some reason are heading towards it. While China says we are applying Reaganomics, well, France is applying Reaganomics. Well, they are starting to say, you know what, this tax cut thing really does work. While the rest of the world is cutting their corporate taxes, we have the highest tax rate in the world. It's either us or Japan. Which one is it, Stu? Have we passed Japan yet?

STU: On the corporate income tax rate?

GLENN: Yes.

STU: We are the highest.

GLENN: We are the highest?

STU: Yes.

GLENN: I know it was Japan for a while. We are the highest. It's only going to get worse. We are talking now, I mean, you know, look. People hate it when I talk the economy down, and I'm sorry but you just have to hear it. Here's what's coming, gang. Crippling taxes. Crippling taxes. You've got about $75 trillion that's going to come due, between $50 and $100 trillion. We don't even know how much money we owe because it's all off the books. We are looking at such crushing weight by 2016 from Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security. 2016 it all comes due. Well, what are you going to do? How are you going to pay for that? And now they want to add more. Now they want universal healthcare. And you know what? They're not going to take no for an answer. It's exactly the same way that they are doing the border. You know, they couldn't get that comprehensive package through. They wanted comprehensive border reform. The American people said no; secure us first and then we'll talk about everything else. Well, they wouldn't do it. They just can't handle that and so what are they doing? They are breaking up that comprehensive package into little bite-size pieces and they are tucking them into bills that are going to pass. You're getting what you said no to. They're going to give it to you.

Well, they also know that we can't afford, nor will we stand for universal healthcare. So how are they doing it? This SCHIPS program, this State Children's Health Insurance Program, I think that's what the SCHIPS stands for, this program is so that, you know, the poor can have health insurance. The poor, the poor children, that's what it started out -- the poor children. Well, the poor children now come from families that make over $80,000 a year. That's -- I mean, we need a dictionary in America. $80,000 a year? That's not poor! And they're also redefining children as 25 years old or younger. When was the last time anyone at 24 years old allowed you to classify them as a child?

In the meantime they're taking Medicare and Medicaid and they are lowering the age there. So they are bringing it down off the top end and they are squeezing it up on the bottom end. So now we have the spread -- the people who aren't insured now are going to be the ones from 26 years old to 54 years old. Well, 25-54, we can just squeeze that. That's only one demographic now. They're giving -- they are jamming it down your throat, whether you want it or not. This is why -- you know, these people in Washington, they don't get it and this is what I really, truly feel from America. You're smarter than this. You know it. You may not know all of the facts, but you know the different things that are going on. You know it.

Here it is. When you saw Hillary Clinton say $5,000 per child, even the people who like Hillary Clinton -- and I've yet to meet one, and that includes her husband -- even the people who like Hillary Clinton say to themselves, how are you going to pay for that? How exactly does that one work?
