1
00:00:01.080 --> 00:00:04.440
<v Speaker 1>It's Night Side with Dan Ray. I'm telling you easy

2
00:00:04.799 --> 00:00:06.040
<v Speaker 1>Boston's Radio.

3
00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:10.400
<v Speaker 2>But we're talking about boycotts. And the reason we're talking

4
00:00:10.439 --> 00:00:17.480
<v Speaker 2>about boycotts is the outrageous actions of some people that

5
00:00:17.640 --> 00:00:21.079
<v Speaker 2>have taken place in the last few weeks, with some

6
00:00:21.199 --> 00:00:25.960
<v Speaker 2>intensity in the last couple of weeks, going after Tesla dealerships,

7
00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:32.960
<v Speaker 2>ev charging stations in Massachusetts in Lyttleton, Massachusetts, as well

8
00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:38.479
<v Speaker 2>as the automobiles or Tesla automobiles owned by individuals, all

9
00:00:38.520 --> 00:00:43.119
<v Speaker 2>in protest of Elon Musk's support for the Trump administration,

10
00:00:43.359 --> 00:00:48.840
<v Speaker 2>particularly the Department of Government Efficiency, which obviously can be criticized.

11
00:00:48.840 --> 00:00:52.719
<v Speaker 2>But you don't criticize by throwing paint on your neighbor's

12
00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:55.439
<v Speaker 2>Tesla or in some Tesla that you happen to see

13
00:00:55.439 --> 00:00:58.320
<v Speaker 2>on the street. Nor do you fire shots in or

14
00:00:58.359 --> 00:01:01.479
<v Speaker 2>break glass or to face a prop property public or

15
00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:06.400
<v Speaker 2>private anyway. So my question is have you ever engaged

16
00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:10.879
<v Speaker 2>in a boycott of any sort? I think the most

17
00:01:10.959 --> 00:01:15.920
<v Speaker 2>effective boycott that is in my recent memory was the

18
00:01:16.159 --> 00:01:20.680
<v Speaker 2>boycott of bud Light Beer. I do not believe that

19
00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:27.439
<v Speaker 2>they were they were examples of any activity of physical

20
00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:33.400
<v Speaker 2>confrontation or destruction of private or personal property I don't recall.

21
00:01:33.519 --> 00:01:36.719
<v Speaker 2>If there are you more than welcome to join the conversation.

22
00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:42.079
<v Speaker 2>I think anyone who's caught destroying private property or in

23
00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:46.439
<v Speaker 2>this case, destroying ev charging stations, UH, they got to

24
00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:50.280
<v Speaker 2>do some time in my opinion, six one, seven thirty

25
00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:53.239
<v Speaker 2>that's one line and six one seven nine three one

26
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:55.799
<v Speaker 2>ten thirty. We have three folks who have held over

27
00:01:55.879 --> 00:01:58.879
<v Speaker 2>during the newscast, and we will continue with this conversation

28
00:01:58.959 --> 00:02:02.799
<v Speaker 2>for however long your interest in it persists. Let me

29
00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:05.200
<v Speaker 2>go to Carl in New York. Carl, welcome back, Thank

30
00:02:05.239 --> 00:02:06.599
<v Speaker 2>you for holding on through the news.

31
00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:07.760
<v Speaker 3>You are next on Nightside.

32
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:13.039
<v Speaker 4>How you doing, Dan. I boy cott men and Jerry's cut.

33
00:02:13.360 --> 00:02:15.199
<v Speaker 4>I boy cott Ben and Jerry's because I don't like

34
00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:18.199
<v Speaker 4>their politics or some of the causes they support. I

35
00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:20.360
<v Speaker 4>have been in a protest. We went down in the

36
00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:24.639
<v Speaker 4>nineties to protests NAFTA with the United Auto Workers. You

37
00:02:24.800 --> 00:02:27.120
<v Speaker 4>carried a coffin down the street. We carried a coffin

38
00:02:27.199 --> 00:02:30.919
<v Speaker 4>down the street to the Capitol and that place was

39
00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:33.479
<v Speaker 4>full of unions that day. And another case of the

40
00:02:33.520 --> 00:02:35.400
<v Speaker 4>government not listening to people.

41
00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:41.039
<v Speaker 2>And by the way, NAFTA hurt us for many years,

42
00:02:41.199 --> 00:02:45.960
<v Speaker 2>and you had both Republicans and Democrats, both New Gingrish

43
00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:49.560
<v Speaker 2>and Bill Clinton, who basically came together. If George Bush

44
00:02:49.560 --> 00:02:53.120
<v Speaker 2>had been president, many of the unions that supported NAFTA

45
00:02:53.360 --> 00:02:55.520
<v Speaker 2>would have would have stopped it from becoming law.

46
00:02:57.319 --> 00:03:00.599
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that's true. I listened to a lot of talk radio.

47
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:03.479
<v Speaker 4>Dan you I will see you guys till midnight, and

48
00:03:03.479 --> 00:03:07.520
<v Speaker 4>then I'll switch over to WLW in Cleveland or WJR

49
00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:13.360
<v Speaker 4>and Detroit, and you can't these politicians are not listening

50
00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:15.599
<v Speaker 4>to people, because if they were listening to the stuff

51
00:03:15.759 --> 00:03:21.319
<v Speaker 4>that people were saying on these stations, things would be different, definitely.

52
00:03:21.400 --> 00:03:24.039
<v Speaker 3>So well, I don't know.

53
00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:28.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I am familiar with the call letters of

54
00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:31.879
<v Speaker 2>those stations, but I don't know if they have.

55
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:34.360
<v Speaker 3>You know, what their attitude is.

56
00:03:34.520 --> 00:03:37.639
<v Speaker 2>You know, some talk shows we try to basically invite

57
00:03:37.759 --> 00:03:40.840
<v Speaker 2>all points of view to join the conversation, and sometimes

58
00:03:40.840 --> 00:03:44.000
<v Speaker 2>we get a little heated with some of the callers. Primarily,

59
00:03:44.080 --> 00:03:47.039
<v Speaker 2>I don't get heated over issues. For example, we just

60
00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:49.879
<v Speaker 2>had a great conversation I thought with Jay from Plymouth.

61
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:54.759
<v Speaker 2>Jay and I probably don't see either way on much politically,

62
00:03:55.360 --> 00:03:58.479
<v Speaker 2>but we've never had harsh words with each other. I

63
00:03:58.520 --> 00:04:01.280
<v Speaker 2>get frustrated when people will engage in a conversation and

64
00:04:01.319 --> 00:04:03.360
<v Speaker 2>they just want to make a speech. And that's where

65
00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:07.639
<v Speaker 2>I get first, what are the politicians not hearing? What

66
00:04:07.639 --> 00:04:09.919
<v Speaker 2>are the politicians not hearing that you're hearing on my

67
00:04:10.039 --> 00:04:11.479
<v Speaker 2>station or in the other.

68
00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:15.000
<v Speaker 4>Stations that most of the people are not against this

69
00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:19.279
<v Speaker 4>stage thing about saving money? In fact, do you hear

70
00:04:19.279 --> 00:04:22.920
<v Speaker 4>them complain? But they don't talk about the kind of

71
00:04:22.920 --> 00:04:27.680
<v Speaker 4>money that's been that they've uncovered. And I had a question,

72
00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:32.279
<v Speaker 4>and I don't hear it asked pretty much anywhere, if anybody,

73
00:04:32.360 --> 00:04:34.959
<v Speaker 4>but anybody but Musk was the head of DOGE. Do

74
00:04:34.959 --> 00:04:36.519
<v Speaker 4>you think everyhalfs pushback?

75
00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:43.120
<v Speaker 2>No, in all honesty, I think that the pushback from

76
00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:47.759
<v Speaker 2>the left on government cutbacks. I mean you can go

77
00:04:47.839 --> 00:04:50.600
<v Speaker 2>back to Bill Proxmeyer, who was a Democratic senator from

78
00:04:50.600 --> 00:04:56.040
<v Speaker 2>Wisconsin thirty years ago. And Proxmeyer used to unveil every

79
00:04:56.160 --> 00:05:00.639
<v Speaker 2>year what he thought were examples of wasted fraud. And

80
00:05:00.959 --> 00:05:07.600
<v Speaker 2>he worked in some ways with Senator Simpson, a Republican

81
00:05:07.720 --> 00:05:12.319
<v Speaker 2>from Wyoming, Alan Simpson, but they never got anywhere because

82
00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:16.160
<v Speaker 2>there was sort of this institutional resistance that they would

83
00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:19.240
<v Speaker 2>talk about it and they would try to get it

84
00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:23.759
<v Speaker 2>out of committees, but there was never much progress. Obviously,

85
00:05:24.519 --> 00:05:27.720
<v Speaker 2>President Trump is a different sort of chief executive, and

86
00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:31.720
<v Speaker 2>he has brought in Elon Musk. People can go to

87
00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:34.480
<v Speaker 2>a website which was I was directed to the other

88
00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:38.240
<v Speaker 2>day by a friend of mine, which is doge just

89
00:05:38.279 --> 00:05:45.040
<v Speaker 2>simply doge dot gov dge gov, and that lists a

90
00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:51.199
<v Speaker 2>lot of the specific programs that have been cut. Have

91
00:05:51.319 --> 00:05:52.480
<v Speaker 2>you gone to that website?

92
00:05:54.079 --> 00:05:55.120
<v Speaker 4>No, I have not.

93
00:05:56.519 --> 00:06:00.680
<v Speaker 2>Well, I think, knowing your philosophical point of view here,

94
00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:04.959
<v Speaker 2>I think that you would enjoy it. There's a there's

95
00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:11.120
<v Speaker 2>a there's a lot of information here, specific examples. Okay,

96
00:06:12.879 --> 00:06:16.639
<v Speaker 2>for example, I'm just looking at it right now. Today

97
00:06:16.839 --> 00:06:19.399
<v Speaker 2>was posted and again some of these are not huge

98
00:06:19.639 --> 00:06:26.000
<v Speaker 2>numbers of numbers, but for example, one hundred thousand dollars.

99
00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:32.040
<v Speaker 2>These are grants that were distributed by the NIH. One

100
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:35.600
<v Speaker 2>hundred thousand dollars to Vanderbilt University to the South to

101
00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:40.560
<v Speaker 2>study social networks among sexual and gender minorities, thirty seven

102
00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:43.199
<v Speaker 2>thousand for the University of Houston to study fear of

103
00:06:43.279 --> 00:06:49.240
<v Speaker 2>deportation in Latenix young adults. Six hundred and twenty thousand

104
00:06:49.279 --> 00:06:55.000
<v Speaker 2>dollars for an LGBT plus inclusive Team pregnancy prevention program

105
00:06:55.079 --> 00:06:59.160
<v Speaker 2>for transgender boys. That one kind of confuses me, to

106
00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:03.680
<v Speaker 2>be honest with you, because right, six hundred and ninety

107
00:07:03.759 --> 00:07:09.319
<v Speaker 2>nine thousand dollars for studying cannabis use among sexual minority,

108
00:07:09.600 --> 00:07:11.160
<v Speaker 2>gender diverse individuals.

109
00:07:13.639 --> 00:07:14.600
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

110
00:07:14.480 --> 00:07:17.040
<v Speaker 2>Why the government would be doing that. And it goes

111
00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:20.480
<v Speaker 2>on and on and on, and a lot of this is,

112
00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:24.680
<v Speaker 2>you know, stuff that the the other administra, the previous

113
00:07:24.680 --> 00:07:28.879
<v Speaker 2>administration was was very active on. Let's see how it

114
00:07:29.079 --> 00:07:32.000
<v Speaker 2>works out at the end here. You know, there's a

115
00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:34.079
<v Speaker 2>lot of this stuff that I don't get it. I mean,

116
00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:38.000
<v Speaker 2>one of the things that bothers me the most was

117
00:07:38.279 --> 00:07:44.120
<v Speaker 2>there's there's some suggestions that Stacy Abrams, the former unsuccessful

118
00:07:44.240 --> 00:07:48.399
<v Speaker 2>Democratic candidate in Georgia for governor, that somehow some charity

119
00:07:48.439 --> 00:07:50.759
<v Speaker 2>that she was running got two billion dollars. Now I

120
00:07:50.839 --> 00:07:53.240
<v Speaker 2>want to see proof of that. That's real money or

121
00:07:53.279 --> 00:07:54.319
<v Speaker 2>two billion dollars.

122
00:07:56.040 --> 00:07:59.839
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's it's it's absolutely crazy. Some of the stuff

123
00:07:59.839 --> 00:08:02.879
<v Speaker 4>that they've uncovered, and why and why people would be

124
00:08:02.959 --> 00:08:08.000
<v Speaker 4>against that just blows my mind. You know what I'm saying, Well,

125
00:08:08.040 --> 00:08:08.639
<v Speaker 4>the people.

126
00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:13.360
<v Speaker 2>The silly stuff, Yeah, well, well to some people, they

127
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:16.160
<v Speaker 2>don't consider that silly, and and the people.

128
00:08:15.839 --> 00:08:17.720
<v Speaker 3>Who are benefiting from those programs.

129
00:08:17.759 --> 00:08:21.839
<v Speaker 2>Look, if they were going to give away millions of

130
00:08:21.879 --> 00:08:28.959
<v Speaker 2>dollars to older talk show hosts on on WBZ Boston

131
00:08:29.560 --> 00:08:33.759
<v Speaker 2>in recognition, you know, I probably would say it sounds

132
00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:37.080
<v Speaker 2>good to me, But that's not going to happen. I mean,

133
00:08:37.320 --> 00:08:40.279
<v Speaker 2>everybody functions kind of in their own self interest, and

134
00:08:40.279 --> 00:08:44.279
<v Speaker 2>and that's what politicians do. They satisfy the self interest

135
00:08:44.320 --> 00:08:45.519
<v Speaker 2>of their constituencies.

136
00:08:45.559 --> 00:08:49.759
<v Speaker 4>And now, well, I would beg I would beg the

137
00:08:49.799 --> 00:08:52.159
<v Speaker 4>different there. They're not listening to us. I am part

138
00:08:52.159 --> 00:08:56.639
<v Speaker 4>of somebody's constituency that they're not. Oh absolutely, I called.

139
00:08:56.840 --> 00:08:59.399
<v Speaker 4>I called on an issue a couple of weeks ago

140
00:08:59.559 --> 00:09:03.200
<v Speaker 4>to my house, my house representative, and to my senator.

141
00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:06.879
<v Speaker 4>I have yet to receive an email or call or anything.

142
00:09:06.879 --> 00:09:09.000
<v Speaker 4>And it happens all the time. They don't.

143
00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:13.399
<v Speaker 3>Well, Carl, I don't disagree with you.

144
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:16.720
<v Speaker 2>All I'm telling you is you're an American who probably

145
00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:20.799
<v Speaker 2>has worked your entire life. Uh, you pay taxes, you

146
00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:23.399
<v Speaker 2>get it, you have a job, you pay taxes, You

147
00:09:23.480 --> 00:09:26.120
<v Speaker 2>probably do some good work in your in your community.

148
00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:33.159
<v Speaker 2>They know you're okay. They are appealing to uh, those

149
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:36.159
<v Speaker 2>who the what do they say, squeaky wheel gets the oil.

150
00:09:36.799 --> 00:09:41.159
<v Speaker 2>And so you have constituencies that probably both parties have

151
00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:44.919
<v Speaker 2>that they take care of. I think some of the

152
00:09:45.000 --> 00:09:48.159
<v Speaker 2>constituencies that the Biden administration I don't. I don't think

153
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:50.720
<v Speaker 2>Joe Biden was run on the government. Okay, in my opinion,

154
00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:54.799
<v Speaker 2>there were there were people under who are making huge decisions, huge,

155
00:09:55.200 --> 00:09:58.000
<v Speaker 2>huge decisions. And let's let's put it out some light's

156
00:09:58.039 --> 00:10:00.440
<v Speaker 2>the greatest disinfected. Let's put it out there in the

157
00:10:00.519 --> 00:10:03.519
<v Speaker 2>light of day. And if if Dolge can come up

158
00:10:03.559 --> 00:10:07.360
<v Speaker 2>with legitimate examples of waste, fraud and abuse, let's put

159
00:10:07.399 --> 00:10:09.879
<v Speaker 2>it out there. If they're unable to put it up,

160
00:10:10.399 --> 00:10:13.720
<v Speaker 2>to come up with specifics, then then they will. They

161
00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:16.480
<v Speaker 2>will fail. It's just it's really as simple as that.

162
00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:21.120
<v Speaker 2>Let's let's open the books. Okay, Let's open the books

163
00:10:21.159 --> 00:10:23.200
<v Speaker 2>and see what they get. What they get, That's all.

164
00:10:24.440 --> 00:10:27.480
<v Speaker 4>That's it. Hey, I'm listening to you on the radio tonight.

165
00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:31.399
<v Speaker 4>Usually i'm listening to your online, but I was able

166
00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:33.200
<v Speaker 4>to get get you in here.

167
00:10:33.840 --> 00:10:34.639
<v Speaker 3>What part of you?

168
00:10:36.039 --> 00:10:40.080
<v Speaker 4>I'm about ten miles north to Albany, sure, yeah.

169
00:10:39.919 --> 00:10:43.120
<v Speaker 3>Okay, you're just over the border for yeah, we're like.

170
00:10:43.039 --> 00:10:44.440
<v Speaker 4>One hundred and eighty miles or so.

171
00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:46.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's pretty good. Well, if you're up a little

172
00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:49.879
<v Speaker 2>bit in the mountains there, normally you might am blocked

173
00:10:49.960 --> 00:10:53.759
<v Speaker 2>by the Berkshires because ours is a simple direction, little signal.

174
00:10:53.799 --> 00:10:55.559
<v Speaker 2>But it's great to know that we're that we're zooming

175
00:10:55.600 --> 00:10:58.120
<v Speaker 2>in on radio. Carl is always thank you so much.

176
00:10:58.120 --> 00:10:59.720
<v Speaker 2>What do you do in New York? What sort of work?

177
00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:02.679
<v Speaker 4>I don't I'm retired right now.

178
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:04.919
<v Speaker 3>What type of work did you do?

179
00:11:06.320 --> 00:11:07.639
<v Speaker 4>Air conditioning? Refrigeration?

180
00:11:08.879 --> 00:11:10.799
<v Speaker 3>Man, I'll say it. That's a great that is a

181
00:11:10.840 --> 00:11:12.360
<v Speaker 3>great career, I'm sure.

182
00:11:12.480 --> 00:11:14.799
<v Speaker 4>I try to talk I try to talk all the

183
00:11:14.840 --> 00:11:17.840
<v Speaker 4>young people that that that I can talk to about

184
00:11:17.879 --> 00:11:21.440
<v Speaker 4>getting into the trades, because right now they're dying for

185
00:11:22.200 --> 00:11:25.320
<v Speaker 4>texts and it's like start at thirty dollars an now.

186
00:11:25.919 --> 00:11:28.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, oh yeah, that look I paid I paid that

187
00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:31.399
<v Speaker 2>technicians and text I have a good company. But every

188
00:11:31.399 --> 00:11:36.000
<v Speaker 2>time the HVAC guys come out, it's all opening up

189
00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:40.000
<v Speaker 2>the checkbook. I'm a big, big fan of people who

190
00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:44.320
<v Speaker 2>are who work for a living. Plumbers, electricians, carpenters, those

191
00:11:44.360 --> 00:11:47.039
<v Speaker 2>are people who really do work for a living. I'm

192
00:11:47.080 --> 00:11:48.639
<v Speaker 2>not a big fan of a lot of the paper

193
00:11:48.639 --> 00:11:52.120
<v Speaker 2>pushes who find themselves in government jobs and they don't

194
00:11:52.120 --> 00:11:56.120
<v Speaker 2>really produce anything other than you know, reports, information or

195
00:11:56.120 --> 00:11:57.399
<v Speaker 2>whatever and pull people.

196
00:11:57.720 --> 00:12:00.720
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I've got I have relatives that worked for the

197
00:12:00.799 --> 00:12:03.320
<v Speaker 4>state who've been there thirty years of a collect them

198
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:05.840
<v Speaker 4>one hundred thousand dollars a year in penship.

199
00:12:05.960 --> 00:12:09.480
<v Speaker 2>For doing nothing, in my opinion, nothing that's productive. Hey, Carl,

200
00:12:09.519 --> 00:12:11.399
<v Speaker 2>I got a run, great call, Thank you so much.

201
00:12:11.480 --> 00:12:14.600
<v Speaker 3>Okay, all right, keep calling the show. Thank you much.

202
00:12:14.840 --> 00:12:17.200
<v Speaker 2>Take a quick break. I went a little long with Carl.

203
00:12:17.360 --> 00:12:20.240
<v Speaker 2>Interesting caller. We'll continue. We'll pick up the pace. The

204
00:12:20.279 --> 00:12:23.639
<v Speaker 2>only lines that are open right now. Six one, seven, nine, three, one,

205
00:12:23.759 --> 00:12:26.480
<v Speaker 2>ten thirty. Have you ever engaged in a boycott? There

206
00:12:26.559 --> 00:12:29.240
<v Speaker 2>must be some people out there in my audience who

207
00:12:29.320 --> 00:12:31.720
<v Speaker 2>decided that butt light was not there a cup of tea.

208
00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:33.639
<v Speaker 2>I've never been a butt like guy. Had drank but

209
00:12:33.919 --> 00:12:37.639
<v Speaker 2>light not a bad product. But I've always been a

210
00:12:37.720 --> 00:12:40.440
<v Speaker 2>partial for some reason. Of course, I know why I

211
00:12:40.559 --> 00:12:43.480
<v Speaker 2>was partial to course. And for those of you that

212
00:12:43.559 --> 00:12:46.320
<v Speaker 2>know me, you may know why a course used to

213
00:12:46.320 --> 00:12:49.399
<v Speaker 2>be a Colorado beer that could never get back east

214
00:12:49.720 --> 00:12:51.919
<v Speaker 2>because it was, you know, cooled in the Rockies and.

215
00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:52.799
<v Speaker 3>All of that.

216
00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:56.679
<v Speaker 2>And finally a friend of mine, a girl I was

217
00:12:56.720 --> 00:12:58.519
<v Speaker 2>dating at the time, brought me back a six pack,

218
00:12:58.519 --> 00:13:01.320
<v Speaker 2>of course from Colorado, and I fell in love with

219
00:13:01.399 --> 00:13:04.480
<v Speaker 2>cors Uh. But I know there were people out there

220
00:13:04.519 --> 00:13:08.799
<v Speaker 2>who said, look, never drinking a bud light again. Have

221
00:13:08.919 --> 00:13:11.720
<v Speaker 2>you engaged in any sort of a boycott. The best

222
00:13:11.720 --> 00:13:15.360
<v Speaker 2>call tonight was from Jay who talked about boycotting boy

223
00:13:15.559 --> 00:13:18.000
<v Speaker 2>boycotting Chicken fil A. I like Chick fil A. I

224
00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:20.480
<v Speaker 2>like Chick fil A. I don't care who you boycotted.

225
00:13:20.559 --> 00:13:24.039
<v Speaker 2>Love to know what compelled you to boycott. And I

226
00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:26.559
<v Speaker 2>hope none of you have ever engaged in physical violence

227
00:13:26.759 --> 00:13:30.159
<v Speaker 2>as a former boycott, because that's not boycott, that's destroying

228
00:13:30.240 --> 00:13:33.600
<v Speaker 2>personal or private, public or personal property. Back on nights

229
00:13:33.600 --> 00:13:37.799
<v Speaker 2>Side again, six seven, nine thirty gets you through coming

230
00:13:37.840 --> 00:13:38.600
<v Speaker 2>back right after this.

231
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:42.799
<v Speaker 1>Now back to Dan Ray live from the Window World

232
00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:47.360
<v Speaker 1>night Sight Studios on WBZ News Radio.

233
00:13:47.759 --> 00:13:51.080
<v Speaker 2>Back to the phones, we go, gonna go to Margie

234
00:13:51.440 --> 00:13:54.200
<v Speaker 2>the Catskills Calls, New York.

235
00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:56.720
<v Speaker 3>Back to back. Hey Margie, welcome, Hi.

236
00:13:57.039 --> 00:14:00.279
<v Speaker 5>I just want to congratulate you because tonight it has

237
00:14:00.320 --> 00:14:03.600
<v Speaker 5>been conversation, not pontification.

238
00:14:04.600 --> 00:14:08.519
<v Speaker 3>Well, thank you. We try to do that most nice ahead.

239
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:11.159
<v Speaker 3>So what I want to tell.

240
00:14:11.120 --> 00:14:16.240
<v Speaker 5>You is it's a different look at boycotting. Suppose the

241
00:14:16.360 --> 00:14:22.039
<v Speaker 5>whole town decides to boycott something. I haven't heard that tonight.

242
00:14:23.759 --> 00:14:26.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if any community has ever done that.

243
00:14:26.399 --> 00:14:30.440
<v Speaker 2>Maybe someone has an example out there, but I don't know.

244
00:14:31.559 --> 00:14:35.120
<v Speaker 2>I never even thought of that. Have you ever heard

245
00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:36.000
<v Speaker 2>of anything like that?

246
00:14:36.440 --> 00:14:40.639
<v Speaker 5>Yes, because our town did it. I will keep us anonymous.

247
00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:45.440
<v Speaker 5>The only franchises we have in our town is a

248
00:14:45.519 --> 00:14:49.480
<v Speaker 5>drug store which we couldn't keep out, and a bank.

249
00:14:49.919 --> 00:14:53.360
<v Speaker 5>Other than that, there are no franchises in our town.

250
00:14:53.879 --> 00:14:57.840
<v Speaker 5>We are a big tourist town and in the summer

251
00:14:57.960 --> 00:15:02.879
<v Speaker 5>the population swells sec and homeowners tourists, and we have

252
00:15:03.080 --> 00:15:08.919
<v Speaker 5>a local coffee shop, a local luncheon shop, and nice dinners.

253
00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:15.120
<v Speaker 5>So Starbucks took a look at us. McDonald's took a

254
00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:18.519
<v Speaker 5>look at us Wendy's. How do you think we kept

255
00:15:18.519 --> 00:15:21.240
<v Speaker 5>them out?

256
00:15:22.039 --> 00:15:23.679
<v Speaker 3>Well, I'm going to take a guess.

257
00:15:24.279 --> 00:15:27.320
<v Speaker 2>I will bet you that there was some sort of

258
00:15:27.559 --> 00:15:30.039
<v Speaker 2>zoning restriction or something.

259
00:15:30.159 --> 00:15:32.080
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. If you have like a board of selectmen,

260
00:15:32.600 --> 00:15:33.919
<v Speaker 3>who's your local government.

261
00:15:34.480 --> 00:15:37.120
<v Speaker 5>We have a town supervisor and a town board.

262
00:15:37.879 --> 00:15:44.279
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I would assume that there was some regulation I'm

263
00:15:44.279 --> 00:15:48.279
<v Speaker 2>guessing now which said that, you know that only restaurants

264
00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:51.200
<v Speaker 2>could be allowed, which had you know, seating, and there

265
00:15:51.200 --> 00:15:54.279
<v Speaker 2>could be no drive throughs and and there were no

266
00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:58.919
<v Speaker 2>something like that, which basically meant Wendy's decided or whatever,

267
00:15:59.200 --> 00:16:01.360
<v Speaker 2>and it's not worth us to try to put a

268
00:16:01.440 --> 00:16:03.000
<v Speaker 2>franchise in that community.

269
00:16:03.120 --> 00:16:03.960
<v Speaker 3>Am I right or wrong?

270
00:16:04.039 --> 00:16:06.000
<v Speaker 6>Probably you are brilliant.

271
00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:12.639
<v Speaker 5>We stopped. We have everything in town, local coffee shops,

272
00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:17.159
<v Speaker 5>lunch shops, whatever. It was a very simple law, the

273
00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:18.440
<v Speaker 5>whole town vote.

274
00:16:18.480 --> 00:16:18.919
<v Speaker 7>It's for it.

275
00:16:19.320 --> 00:16:21.320
<v Speaker 5>You cannot have a drive through.

276
00:16:22.000 --> 00:16:26.039
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I hit I lucked out on that one, Margie.

277
00:16:26.039 --> 00:16:30.120
<v Speaker 5>You because if you don't have a drive through, none

278
00:16:30.120 --> 00:16:31.879
<v Speaker 5>of those franchises want you.

279
00:16:32.679 --> 00:16:35.919
<v Speaker 2>Oh absolutely, that's they do ninety percent of their business

280
00:16:35.960 --> 00:16:38.600
<v Speaker 2>with the drive through. I've gone to some of those places.

281
00:16:38.639 --> 00:16:41.000
<v Speaker 2>I tend not to. I'm not a big fan of

282
00:16:41.039 --> 00:16:44.919
<v Speaker 2>any of the fast food places. I love a local diner.

283
00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:49.039
<v Speaker 3>I love a local restaurant, that's what that's what I love.

284
00:16:49.120 --> 00:16:50.600
<v Speaker 3>I don't like the big franchises.

285
00:16:50.679 --> 00:16:52.840
<v Speaker 2>I mean, they're convenient, and if you're a trucker and

286
00:16:52.879 --> 00:16:54.360
<v Speaker 2>you're out on the road and you got to stop.

287
00:16:54.399 --> 00:16:58.039
<v Speaker 3>You have no choice. But I'm with you. When did

288
00:16:58.039 --> 00:17:00.960
<v Speaker 3>the tourists leave your town Labor Day.

289
00:17:01.200 --> 00:17:02.320
<v Speaker 7>Or do they stay there there?

290
00:17:03.159 --> 00:17:09.680
<v Speaker 5>Well, sixty percent of our houses are part time seasonal people.

291
00:17:10.000 --> 00:17:13.640
<v Speaker 5>We love seasonal people. They pay our taxes and they

292
00:17:13.640 --> 00:17:16.079
<v Speaker 5>don't send their kids to our schools.

293
00:17:16.440 --> 00:17:17.359
<v Speaker 3>I got you there.

294
00:17:19.119 --> 00:17:22.559
<v Speaker 5>I just love that you understand it. And I hope

295
00:17:22.559 --> 00:17:26.519
<v Speaker 5>some of the people that try single boycotts, we'll just

296
00:17:26.680 --> 00:17:29.960
<v Speaker 5>go to their town government and say, hey, enough of

297
00:17:30.039 --> 00:17:32.039
<v Speaker 5>us don't want this. What are you going to do

298
00:17:32.119 --> 00:17:32.559
<v Speaker 5>about it?

299
00:17:32.759 --> 00:17:34.599
<v Speaker 2>Well, you've got to come up with a set of

300
00:17:34.640 --> 00:17:38.599
<v Speaker 2>bylaws or rules and regulations that are consistent because obviously

301
00:17:39.079 --> 00:17:43.559
<v Speaker 2>you can't have a regulation that says we're not going

302
00:17:43.599 --> 00:17:46.400
<v Speaker 2>to have a McDonald's, but we can have a Wendy's,

303
00:17:46.480 --> 00:17:48.079
<v Speaker 2>or we can have this, because then you're going to

304
00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:51.160
<v Speaker 2>be discriminating and you're going to end up in a lawsuit.

305
00:17:51.480 --> 00:17:54.519
<v Speaker 2>But what I suggested and what your town was wise

306
00:17:54.599 --> 00:17:57.279
<v Speaker 2>enough to do, just say, hey, we don't want for

307
00:17:57.319 --> 00:18:00.200
<v Speaker 2>public safety purposes as well as for the character of

308
00:18:00.240 --> 00:18:03.160
<v Speaker 2>the town, we do not want drive throughs. If you

309
00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:06.359
<v Speaker 2>want to open a restaurant, that's fine. But that will

310
00:18:06.400 --> 00:18:09.359
<v Speaker 2>keep the McDonald's in, the Wendy's and those other big

311
00:18:09.400 --> 00:18:13.039
<v Speaker 2>burger kings out of your community.

312
00:18:13.279 --> 00:18:16.359
<v Speaker 5>Well, thank you so much for that. I suggest that

313
00:18:16.480 --> 00:18:17.920
<v Speaker 5>for everybody. Good night.

314
00:18:18.079 --> 00:18:18.519

<v Speaker 9>Dan.

347
00:19:40.640 --> 00:19:43.599
<v Speaker 8>I agree with you about those people. I'm not a

348
00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:48.920
<v Speaker 8>I'm not a well I forgot what it's called. Well, anyways,

349
00:19:49.079 --> 00:19:51.079
<v Speaker 8>I agree with you with those people that are doing

350
00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:54.160
<v Speaker 8>things to those CAUs that something should be done to them.

351
00:19:54.839 --> 00:19:59.839
<v Speaker 8>And another thing, I I agree they should do things

352
00:20:00.039 --> 00:20:04.160
<v Speaker 8>about people that's stealing cars. And I don't understand why

353
00:20:04.200 --> 00:20:06.720
<v Speaker 8>people leave keys in their cars.

354
00:20:07.960 --> 00:20:08.920
<v Speaker 3>Well I had it.

355
00:20:10.960 --> 00:20:13.880
<v Speaker 2>I think that the people are not thinking angelo because

356
00:20:13.920 --> 00:20:16.960
<v Speaker 2>they were always I guess gotta make that mistake once

357
00:20:17.039 --> 00:20:18.000
<v Speaker 2>and there goes your car.

358
00:20:19.039 --> 00:20:22.359
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, and let me tell you something. I woke up

359
00:20:22.440 --> 00:20:25.599
<v Speaker 8>one morning at like four o'clock in the morning and

360
00:20:25.680 --> 00:20:28.440
<v Speaker 8>I found a car, a stolen car that was pocked

361
00:20:28.440 --> 00:20:32.319
<v Speaker 8>in my driveway. I called the police. I called the

362
00:20:32.359 --> 00:20:36.359
<v Speaker 8>police and and they asked you if I knew the person,

363
00:20:36.400 --> 00:20:38.119
<v Speaker 8>and I says, no, I don't know this person is.

364
00:20:38.359 --> 00:20:40.319
<v Speaker 8>So they just looked in the car. They found the

365
00:20:40.400 --> 00:20:42.960
<v Speaker 8>keys in it, they found the registration, and they didn't

366
00:20:43.000 --> 00:20:45.680
<v Speaker 8>do nothing. They said, if you have to move your vehicle,

367
00:20:45.799 --> 00:20:47.400
<v Speaker 8>just take the car and put it out on the street.

368
00:20:48.039 --> 00:20:49.559
<v Speaker 8>So I says, wait a minute, I says, let me

369
00:20:49.599 --> 00:20:51.839
<v Speaker 8>ask my brother if he knows anybody. He says, no,

370
00:20:51.880 --> 00:20:53.920
<v Speaker 8>he doesn't know anybody. So he had I had to

371
00:20:53.920 --> 00:20:56.519
<v Speaker 8>call the police back again and they had to come.

372
00:20:56.680 --> 00:20:59.160
<v Speaker 8>They had to come back. We check everything, and with

373
00:20:59.279 --> 00:21:02.119
<v Speaker 8>somebody in my away from my house, they stole the

374
00:21:02.160 --> 00:21:03.799
<v Speaker 8>con They pocked it in my driveway.

375
00:21:04.079 --> 00:21:06.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they took it for a joy ride. They took

376
00:21:06.440 --> 00:21:08.359
<v Speaker 2>it for a joy ride and they dumped it on

377
00:21:08.400 --> 00:21:10.559
<v Speaker 2>your property. Crazy.

378
00:21:10.880 --> 00:21:15.279
<v Speaker 8>Another crazy thing, Another crazy thing was a truck was

379
00:21:15.319 --> 00:21:17.400
<v Speaker 8>pocked in my driveway. Woke come out of the morning

380
00:21:17.640 --> 00:21:20.559
<v Speaker 8>and it was blood in it and there was something.

381
00:21:20.559 --> 00:21:24.720
<v Speaker 8>There's something strange it was done about that. Why do

382
00:21:24.799 --> 00:21:27.680
<v Speaker 8>people believe he's in it in their cars? I don't understand.

383
00:21:27.720 --> 00:21:30.799
<v Speaker 8>But like you say, but people that do something to

384
00:21:30.799 --> 00:21:33.720
<v Speaker 8>people's cars they should be something should be done about

385
00:21:33.799 --> 00:21:35.359
<v Speaker 8>and it's wrong.

386
00:21:35.680 --> 00:21:40.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't hold on, Angelo, hold on. We want to

387
00:21:40.240 --> 00:21:43.480
<v Speaker 2>get that address and we'll get that. Uh this T

00:22:02.240 --> 00:22:03.519
<v Speaker 2>to go next? They we'll pick it up the pace

395
00:22:03.559 --> 00:22:05.960
<v Speaker 2>we got Nick and Brookline. Nick, you were next one night, said.

396
00:22:05.799 --> 00:22:08.799
<v Speaker 6>Welcome, Hey Dan, thank you, Thanks love your show. Just

397
00:22:08.839 --> 00:22:10.920
<v Speaker 6>to let you know, call very much.

398
00:22:11.359 --> 00:22:12.519
<v Speaker 3>Thank you. Sure, right ahead.

399
00:22:12.599 --> 00:22:14.440
<v Speaker 6>So a couple of quick things. I just want to

400
00:22:14.440 --> 00:22:17.920
<v Speaker 6>throw the first one out. The best boycott I've ever

401
00:22:17.960 --> 00:22:22.839
<v Speaker 6>seen was the market basket boycott. Yeah, same market that.

402
00:22:23.160 --> 00:22:24.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it was.

403
00:22:24.079 --> 00:22:27.680
<v Speaker 6>It was amazing. It was for it was for the best, too, right,

404
00:22:27.880 --> 00:22:31.279
<v Speaker 6>I mean it didn't go public. People still worked there.

405
00:22:31.640 --> 00:22:35.720
<v Speaker 6>I remember mister Demols saying coming out there and saying,

406
00:22:36.319 --> 00:22:39.279
<v Speaker 6>we're in we're in the people business. We just happened

407
00:22:39.319 --> 00:22:42.400
<v Speaker 6>to sell groceries, which I thought was quite a statement.

408
00:22:42.920 --> 00:22:46.960
<v Speaker 6>But the other thing too, is about this. Obviously, no

409
00:22:47.000 --> 00:22:50.240
<v Speaker 6>one wants any damage and iything it's crazy, but it

410
00:22:50.440 --> 00:22:53.400
<v Speaker 6>is working at Boycott on Tesla. There the stocks have

411
00:22:53.440 --> 00:22:55.720
<v Speaker 6>gone from three ninety down to two forty right now.

412
00:22:56.480 --> 00:22:57.319
<v Speaker 3>I talked about that.

413
00:22:57.400 --> 00:23:00.400
<v Speaker 2>I talked about that last hour and obviously a lot

414
00:23:00.400 --> 00:23:02.920
<v Speaker 2>of stocks that have taken a hit. How much of

415
00:23:02.960 --> 00:23:05.599
<v Speaker 2>that is Tesla and how much of that is just

416
00:23:05.680 --> 00:23:07.400
<v Speaker 2>what's what's hit the market?

417
00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:10.039
<v Speaker 3>Will it configure that?

418
00:23:10.039 --> 00:23:13.440
<v Speaker 6>I think the test one though, I guess there's a

419
00:23:13.480 --> 00:23:16.119
<v Speaker 6>sixty or seventy percent drop in sales for Teslas in

420
00:23:16.759 --> 00:23:18.920
<v Speaker 6>all of Europe, so that's a big part of it.

421
00:23:19.000 --> 00:23:21.079
<v Speaker 6>And then trying to even here in the United States,

422
00:23:21.119 --> 00:23:24.119
<v Speaker 6>I think they're down by forty percent. But anyway, a

423
00:23:24.200 --> 00:23:26.240
<v Speaker 6>quick question for you, and I'm wondering this is a

424
00:23:26.279 --> 00:23:30.200
<v Speaker 6>little bit of a conspiracy theory kind of thing here, Okay.

425
00:23:30.279 --> 00:23:32.559
<v Speaker 6>It seems to me like it seems to me like,

426
00:23:32.960 --> 00:23:35.680
<v Speaker 6>say you get rid of the Big three, right, because

427
00:23:36.480 --> 00:23:40.359
<v Speaker 6>they're not going to be able to create thirty or

428
00:23:40.359 --> 00:23:43.559
<v Speaker 6>forty billion dollars worth factories in the United States in

429
00:23:43.599 --> 00:23:46.000
<v Speaker 6>the next month or even in the next five years

430
00:23:46.160 --> 00:23:49.279
<v Speaker 6>or whatever, because it takes a lot of money from

431
00:23:49.319 --> 00:23:52.400
<v Speaker 6>a company and profitability to be able to all of

432
00:23:52.440 --> 00:23:55.119
<v Speaker 6>a sudden start rebuilding factories and train workers and all

433
00:23:55.160 --> 00:23:57.000
<v Speaker 6>that kind of stuff. That's the reason they're set up

434
00:23:57.039 --> 00:23:59.680
<v Speaker 6>the way it is right now is because it took

435
00:23:59.720 --> 00:24:01.880
<v Speaker 6>like forty years for that thing to set up the

436
00:24:01.880 --> 00:24:03.319
<v Speaker 6>way it is. You can't do it in the month.

437
00:24:04.079 --> 00:24:07.839
<v Speaker 6>What if those companies fail, what's going to be left

438
00:24:08.039 --> 00:24:11.680
<v Speaker 6>for companies? It's going to be tesla. So in my opinion,

439
00:24:12.119 --> 00:24:15.119
<v Speaker 6>I think that it's quite possible that this is an

440
00:24:15.119 --> 00:24:19.319
<v Speaker 6>inside job and that this is another way from Mosque.

441
00:24:19.359 --> 00:24:22.880
<v Speaker 6>Who knows, maybe you'll come up with just regular gasoline

442
00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:24.759
<v Speaker 6>driven cars and everyone a while.

443
00:24:24.880 --> 00:24:27.799
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm not buying that, because I got to be

444
00:24:27.799 --> 00:24:31.200
<v Speaker 2>honest with you. No, I don't look there was I'm

445
00:24:31.240 --> 00:24:34.240
<v Speaker 2>old enough to remember there was a period of time

446
00:24:34.759 --> 00:24:42.039
<v Speaker 2>when American cars, American manufactured cars became too expensive and

447
00:24:42.599 --> 00:24:47.240
<v Speaker 2>too unreliable, and a lot of these companies from around

448
00:24:47.240 --> 00:24:50.559
<v Speaker 2>the world, Japanese cars, and I'm not a car expert,

449
00:24:50.720 --> 00:24:55.240
<v Speaker 2>Japanese cars, German cars, Swedish cars came into the country

450
00:24:55.240 --> 00:24:57.319
<v Speaker 2>and people said, hey, this is a great car, you know,

451
00:24:57.440 --> 00:25:00.839
<v Speaker 2>And I've driven Volvos for a long time my next

452
00:25:00.839 --> 00:25:02.960
<v Speaker 2>car will not be Evovo because I've lost.

453
00:25:02.680 --> 00:25:03.480
<v Speaker 3>Faith in Vovo.

454
00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:08.359
<v Speaker 2>But the market, the marketplace dictated that. And I think

455
00:25:08.440 --> 00:25:12.559
<v Speaker 2>what will happen here is that that American company, a

456
00:25:12.559 --> 00:25:15.039
<v Speaker 2>bunch of American companies went to Mexico, A bunch of

457
00:25:15.079 --> 00:25:17.960
<v Speaker 2>American companies out of Detroit went went south.

458
00:25:18.079 --> 00:25:20.640
<v Speaker 3>They wanted to avoid the union issues.

459
00:25:20.680 --> 00:25:23.839
<v Speaker 2>And now you know, those companies are smart enough to

460
00:25:23.839 --> 00:25:27.200
<v Speaker 2>pay their workers a decent wage. And I guess some

461
00:25:27.680 --> 00:25:30.799
<v Speaker 2>unions have have gone into Southern states, some havened.

462
00:25:31.000 --> 00:25:31.160
<v Speaker 7>Well.

463
00:25:31.200 --> 00:25:34.839
<v Speaker 2>I think eventually they'll just bring back cars to America.

464
00:25:35.039 --> 00:25:36.799
<v Speaker 2>And just like we got to we got to bring

465
00:25:36.839 --> 00:25:40.559
<v Speaker 2>back computer chips to America. That's the real danger if

466
00:25:40.680 --> 00:25:44.480
<v Speaker 2>if all of a sudden, China takes over Taiwan, what

467
00:25:44.519 --> 00:25:47.680
<v Speaker 2>are we going to do for computer chips, never mind cars?

468
00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:51.279
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, no, you're one hundred percent. I think that. That's

469
00:25:51.279 --> 00:25:54.599
<v Speaker 6>why I think, though these there's better ways to try

470
00:25:54.640 --> 00:25:58.720
<v Speaker 6>to get industry back into the United States than by

471
00:25:59.160 --> 00:26:01.720
<v Speaker 6>by doing what what's going on right now, for example,

472
00:26:01.720 --> 00:26:02.319
<v Speaker 6>that well.

473
00:26:02.079 --> 00:26:03.680
<v Speaker 2>I'll tell you what, if you've got a better way,

474
00:26:04.400 --> 00:26:07.279
<v Speaker 2>hit me with an idea. Basically, what Trump is trying

475
00:26:07.279 --> 00:26:09.200
<v Speaker 2>to do is saying, hey, we're going to hit you

476
00:26:09.400 --> 00:26:12.160
<v Speaker 2>with tariffs if you're manufacturing cars outside of the country.

477
00:26:12.319 --> 00:26:14.480
<v Speaker 2>Come on back inside the country and you'll be okay.

478
00:26:14.519 --> 00:26:16.359
<v Speaker 2>He talked about the other day, and he made.

479
00:26:16.200 --> 00:26:19.640
<v Speaker 3>A lot of sense. You know how many American pharmaceutical

480
00:26:19.640 --> 00:26:21.480
<v Speaker 3>companies are now headquartered in Ireland.

481
00:26:22.519 --> 00:26:25.000
<v Speaker 6>I love it because there's no because there's no taxes

482
00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:28.519
<v Speaker 6>in Ireland. But how quickly can you get your again?

483
00:26:28.559 --> 00:26:30.839
<v Speaker 6>You're gonna you need to have a full of income

484
00:26:30.880 --> 00:26:33.640
<v Speaker 6>to come in for you to be able to invest

485
00:26:33.759 --> 00:26:35.720
<v Speaker 6>reinvest in the United States. What do you do? You

486
00:26:35.839 --> 00:26:38.039
<v Speaker 6>just PowerP the hell out of it. Put all these

487
00:26:38.039 --> 00:26:40.759
<v Speaker 6>companies out of business because no one can afford to

488
00:26:40.839 --> 00:26:44.000
<v Speaker 6>buy afford anymore. Because they're five to seven, eight, twelve,

489
00:26:44.079 --> 00:26:46.519
<v Speaker 6>twenty thousand dollars more than they were. It doesn't make

490
00:26:46.519 --> 00:26:48.480
<v Speaker 6>any sense. You got to do it in a smarter way.

491
00:26:48.759 --> 00:26:50.839
<v Speaker 6>And the other thing too, is here, I'll give you

492
00:26:50.839 --> 00:26:54.119
<v Speaker 6>all the way went out the way real quick, all right. Aluminium,

493
00:26:54.440 --> 00:26:56.039
<v Speaker 6>aluminum and lumber.

494
00:26:56.240 --> 00:26:56.400
<v Speaker 7>Right.

495
00:26:56.920 --> 00:26:59.319
<v Speaker 6>The reason that we get it from there is because

496
00:26:59.359 --> 00:27:01.480
<v Speaker 6>it's cheaper, because they got a heckle a lot more

497
00:27:01.480 --> 00:27:04.559
<v Speaker 6>of it. There's a lot more aluminum in Canada than

498
00:27:04.599 --> 00:27:07.000
<v Speaker 6>there is here in the United States, and we use

499
00:27:07.119 --> 00:27:12.119
<v Speaker 6>all of that stuff for cans and for metals and

500
00:27:12.200 --> 00:27:14.640
<v Speaker 6>for you name it, right, and for housing and for

501
00:27:14.759 --> 00:27:18.160
<v Speaker 6>things like that. So maybe if the if the terrafs

502
00:27:18.200 --> 00:27:20.920
<v Speaker 6>were a little bit more targeted and a little less

503
00:27:21.039 --> 00:27:24.680
<v Speaker 6>like it's kind of silly as they seem to be,

504
00:27:24.680 --> 00:27:26.599
<v Speaker 6>because this is going to affect all the thick of

505
00:27:26.599 --> 00:27:29.039
<v Speaker 6>all the building trades in this Country's.

506
00:27:30.359 --> 00:27:34.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm not trying to defend Trump, but Trump is targeting aluminum. Look,

507
00:27:34.720 --> 00:27:37.240
<v Speaker 2>we've been doing aluminum.

508
00:27:37.200 --> 00:27:39.559
<v Speaker 6>It doesn't make sense, it doesn't make sense. That's where

509
00:27:39.599 --> 00:27:39.880
<v Speaker 6>you get this.

510
00:27:40.119 --> 00:27:42.720
<v Speaker 2>Well, if that's what's going to hurt Canada to get

511
00:27:42.759 --> 00:27:45.880
<v Speaker 2>them to drop tariffs, that's the theory. I'm not trying

512
00:27:45.880 --> 00:27:48.519
<v Speaker 2>to defend the theory. Let me ask you this. I've

513
00:27:48.559 --> 00:27:51.799
<v Speaker 2>been recycling cans for about forty years here in Massachusetts,

514
00:27:51.880 --> 00:27:54.039
<v Speaker 2>ever since the bottle bill came out. Do you know

515
00:27:54.319 --> 00:27:57.519
<v Speaker 2>many times I have put a can to get you know,

516
00:27:57.880 --> 00:28:03.160
<v Speaker 2>hitto the machine. Why Why is that aluminum here not

517
00:28:03.319 --> 00:28:05.960
<v Speaker 2>being recycled? What's happening to that aluminum?

518
00:28:08.519 --> 00:28:11.160
<v Speaker 6>Because aluminum is not just like it's gonna take more

519
00:28:11.200 --> 00:28:15.480
<v Speaker 6>than just your lifetime with cans in mine.

520
00:28:14.680 --> 00:28:17.519
<v Speaker 2>To be a wait a second, wait a second, wait,

521
00:28:17.519 --> 00:28:20.759
<v Speaker 2>wait wait wait, let me finish, Nick, Let me finish Nick.

522
00:28:20.759 --> 00:28:22.680
<v Speaker 2>I'm not trying to fight here. I'm trying to make

523
00:28:22.680 --> 00:28:25.319
<v Speaker 2>an argument to you, and that is this. When the

524
00:28:25.319 --> 00:28:28.880
<v Speaker 2>bottle Bill passed in Massachusetts in nineteen eighty eight eighty seven,

525
00:28:29.119 --> 00:28:32.480
<v Speaker 2>Lois Pine, Senator from Newton, was the big sponsor. I

526
00:28:32.799 --> 00:28:37.119
<v Speaker 2>supported her. I did TV stories on it, explain to

527
00:28:37.160 --> 00:28:41.240
<v Speaker 2>people that it's better to recycle cans, bear cans, pepsi cans,

528
00:28:41.279 --> 00:28:43.920
<v Speaker 2>coke cans than seeing people throw them out on the

529
00:28:43.960 --> 00:28:46.839
<v Speaker 2>side of the roads. I remember that there was litter

530
00:28:47.160 --> 00:28:50.599
<v Speaker 2>everywhere in the nineteen eighties here in Massachusetts, and thank

531
00:28:50.640 --> 00:28:54.319
<v Speaker 2>God for the bottle bill. But one of the selling

532
00:28:54.359 --> 00:28:57.160
<v Speaker 2>points was not only will it won't cost you anything

533
00:28:57.160 --> 00:28:59.160
<v Speaker 2>because you're paid a nickel for the can, and when

534
00:28:59.200 --> 00:29:01.759
<v Speaker 2>you recycle it, you get it back, and that we

535
00:29:01.839 --> 00:29:03.720
<v Speaker 2>then we're going to recycle the aluminum. We has that

536
00:29:03.799 --> 00:29:04.559
<v Speaker 2>aluminum gone.

537
00:29:04.640 --> 00:29:09.039
<v Speaker 6>Let's you know, well, there's not enough of it to

538
00:29:09.160 --> 00:29:11.519
<v Speaker 6>be able to I mean there's there's just not enough

539
00:29:11.519 --> 00:29:14.960
<v Speaker 6>cans made of aluminum to be able to cover all

540
00:29:15.000 --> 00:29:17.480
<v Speaker 6>the stuff that aluminum is used for in an industry.

541
00:29:17.960 --> 00:29:19.680
<v Speaker 6>So I mean, and the and the point of it

542
00:29:19.720 --> 00:29:22.119
<v Speaker 6>is this. You get the tariffs a little backwards here.

543
00:29:22.240 --> 00:29:25.240
<v Speaker 6>These tariffs were placed on us on Canada, and they

544
00:29:25.240 --> 00:29:28.039
<v Speaker 6>are not a tax on Canada. They are a tax

545
00:29:28.200 --> 00:29:31.720
<v Speaker 6>on American businesses. I know because I'm in I'm a

546
00:29:31.799 --> 00:29:36.000
<v Speaker 6>buyer for a book business, and our company now is

547
00:29:36.039 --> 00:29:42.359
<v Speaker 6>paying whatever twenty more per books that cannot be produced

548
00:29:42.480 --> 00:29:46.599
<v Speaker 6>in the United States. They're too intricate to be produced here.

549
00:29:47.000 --> 00:29:49.559
<v Speaker 6>They're like four they pulled out. They do all sorts

550
00:29:49.559 --> 00:29:53.559
<v Speaker 6>of crazy stuff. They're beautiful books, you know, and they're

551
00:29:53.640 --> 00:29:56.759
<v Speaker 6>not based. We're in this country, so you know, it

552
00:29:56.839 --> 00:29:59.720
<v Speaker 6>has to be a little smarter than what's being done. Well, they're.

553
00:30:01.079 --> 00:30:03.880
<v Speaker 2>Look, I'm not a fan of tariffs, Nick, I want

554
00:30:03.920 --> 00:30:07.279
<v Speaker 2>to see the tariffs used to get to a complete

555
00:30:07.759 --> 00:30:11.920
<v Speaker 2>free trade situation. I'm somebody who wants free trade, but

556
00:30:12.039 --> 00:30:14.400
<v Speaker 2>you have companies around the world that have hit us

557
00:30:14.440 --> 00:30:18.400
<v Speaker 2>with tariffs. I'm not supporting Trump's policies here, but I

558
00:30:18.559 --> 00:30:21.119
<v Speaker 2>do not want to take tariffs off the table.

559
00:30:21.319 --> 00:30:23.119
<v Speaker 3>Nick. I hate to do this to you and I

560
00:30:23.160 --> 00:30:23.880
<v Speaker 3>do have to run.

561
00:30:23.960 --> 00:30:27.960
<v Speaker 2>Okay, thank you very much, keep calling the show, Thank you, sir.

562
00:30:28.200 --> 00:30:29.799
<v Speaker 2>Coming back on nightside, right after this.

563
00:30:30.759 --> 00:30:34.279
<v Speaker 1>Now back to Dan Rayline from the Window World Nightside

564
00:30:34.279 --> 00:30:37.000
<v Speaker 1>Studios on w b Z the news radio.

565
00:30:38.839 --> 00:30:41.680
<v Speaker 2>Okay, let's keep rolling here, Gotta go to Rachel and Quincy.

566
00:30:41.799 --> 00:30:43.200
<v Speaker 2>Rachel next on Nightside.

567
00:30:42.839 --> 00:30:45.039
<v Speaker 6>Go ahead, by Dan.

568
00:30:45.160 --> 00:30:46.640
<v Speaker 8>How are you good?

569
00:30:46.759 --> 00:30:51.240
<v Speaker 3>Rachel? What's your what's your your conversation? What's your comment tonight?

570
00:30:53.079 --> 00:30:58.599
<v Speaker 10>So I talked to Rob during I'm like, I gotta

571
00:30:58.640 --> 00:31:00.599
<v Speaker 10>get on, you know, he said.

572
00:31:00.200 --> 00:31:04.559
<v Speaker 9>No, Jackie can't because of Okay.

573
00:31:04.240 --> 00:31:05.160
<v Speaker 6>A couple of things.

574
00:31:05.920 --> 00:31:16.960
<v Speaker 9>I boycotted processed meats and I only ate foods that

575
00:31:17.119 --> 00:31:18.599
<v Speaker 9>came from boor'shead.

576
00:31:19.880 --> 00:31:22.839
<v Speaker 10>And then when Boyshead came out with that whole hysteria

577
00:31:22.960 --> 00:31:25.920
<v Speaker 10>thing and la la la, I'm like, Okay.

578
00:31:26.160 --> 00:31:33.000
<v Speaker 9>Where is the government coming in to make sure the

579
00:31:33.119 --> 00:31:34.079
<v Speaker 9>area was clean?

580
00:31:34.799 --> 00:31:38.759
<v Speaker 10>And the reason why lasteria came out is because it

581
00:31:38.880 --> 00:31:39.559
<v Speaker 10>wasn't clean.

582
00:31:40.200 --> 00:31:47.720
<v Speaker 9>That's number one. That's number one. The other thing that Dan,

583
00:31:48.000 --> 00:31:58.720
<v Speaker 9>I would love if you could have some local farmers.

584
00:31:55.759 --> 00:31:56.720
<v Speaker 10>On your show.

585
00:31:57.079 --> 00:32:01.400
<v Speaker 9>The gentleman you had earlier talking about I didn't even

586
00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:05.119
<v Speaker 9>understand half the words of you was saying about the

587
00:32:05.160 --> 00:32:13.240
<v Speaker 9>importance of they don't need drones. They don't need they

588
00:32:13.240 --> 00:32:16.160
<v Speaker 9>don't need drones. They don't need that was a.

<v Speaker 2>Fellow in the eight o'clock hour, Arthur Ericsson. Yep, I

590
00:32:19.119 --> 00:32:20.119
<v Speaker 2>know what you're talking about.

00:32:21.240 --> 00:32:25.839
<v Speaker 9>Okay, so, and I know you and I have talked

00:32:25.920 --> 00:32:31.119
<v Speaker 9>a little bit and William whatever. But I rescue horses.

608
00:33:11.680 --> 00:33:14.319
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to lose my audience. We're talking about the

609
00:33:14.359 --> 00:33:15.319
<v Speaker 2>subject of tonight.

610
00:33:16.440 --> 00:33:18.039
<v Speaker 3>And so Rob will.

611
00:33:17.920 --> 00:33:19.640
<v Speaker 2>Give you my direct line. Get me a call during

612
00:33:19.680 --> 00:33:21.400
<v Speaker 2>the day and I will get back to you and

613
00:33:23.279 --> 00:33:26.559
<v Speaker 2>we'll work out something. Okay, if that's what you want, yes, sir,

614
00:33:27.319 --> 00:33:27.839
<v Speaker 2>all right.

615
00:33:27.799 --> 00:33:28.640
<v Speaker 3>Sounds great.

616
00:33:28.799 --> 00:33:31.279
<v Speaker 2>Rob, give a make sure you give Rachel my direct

617
00:33:31.359 --> 00:33:34.359
<v Speaker 2>number during the day. Let's keep rolling here. We're going

618
00:33:34.400 --> 00:33:36.200
<v Speaker 2>to go next to Glenn and brighton. Glenn, you were

619
00:33:36.200 --> 00:33:37.759
<v Speaker 2>next on my second right ahead, Glenn.

620
00:33:38.400 --> 00:33:40.839
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, this isn't what I call But I thought compute

621
00:33:41.279 --> 00:33:44.640
<v Speaker 7>Silicon Valley was the computer chip mechro of the universe.

622
00:33:46.599 --> 00:33:49.319
<v Speaker 3>It is Taiwan. Taiwan does all the chips.

623
00:33:50.440 --> 00:33:54.039
<v Speaker 2>Uh, Silicon Valley, that's where they do the programming, that is,

624
00:33:54.119 --> 00:33:55.920
<v Speaker 2>that's where they come up with the great ideas.

625
00:33:56.279 --> 00:33:56.400
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

626
00:33:56.960 --> 00:34:00.920
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, for us to get enough to compewter chips,

627
00:34:01.480 --> 00:34:03.559
<v Speaker 2>we got to hope that that would be if if

628
00:34:03.680 --> 00:34:06.839
<v Speaker 2>China ever invaded Taiwan, we'd be in big, big trouble

629
00:34:06.880 --> 00:34:07.359
<v Speaker 2>in terms of.

630
00:34:08.719 --> 00:34:12.559
<v Speaker 7>And China knows that too. Yeah, that we'd be in trouble.

631
00:34:12.960 --> 00:34:14.199
<v Speaker 3>You got it, You got it.

632
00:34:14.519 --> 00:34:18.360
<v Speaker 7>Reason I call it. I told Rob, I've been boycotting

633
00:34:18.400 --> 00:34:21.960
<v Speaker 7>since it began, cable TV and satellite radio because I

634
00:34:21.960 --> 00:34:25.119
<v Speaker 7>don't believe in paying for radio or paying for television.

635
00:34:25.159 --> 00:34:29.159
<v Speaker 7>Now I miss a lot of good stuff, obviously, stuff

636
00:34:29.199 --> 00:34:33.320
<v Speaker 7>I would like, especially satellite radio. This seventies at seven

637

<v Speaker 2>Yeah, all right, I gotta keep rolling. When to get

<v Speaker 2>one mind here before the break? Thanks Glenn, we'll talk later, okay,

656
00:35:34.480 --> 00:35:34.920
<v Speaker 2>all right?

657
00:35:34.960 --> 00:35:35.280
<v Speaker 7>Thanks?

658
00:35:35.440 --> 00:35:37.360
<v Speaker 2>All right, let me go to Theodore in Baltimore Theatre.

659
00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:40.119
<v Speaker 2>We're tight on time, and I may be changing topics.

660
00:35:40.360 --> 00:35:42.360
<v Speaker 2>I want to hear what you got to say. Go ahead, theatre.

661
00:35:42.760 --> 00:35:46.679
<v Speaker 11>Well, no ant assets for you tonight, Dan, No ant assets.

662
00:35:46.960 --> 00:35:49.280
<v Speaker 11>I'm listening to you. First of all, I think what

663
00:35:49.360 --> 00:35:51.719
<v Speaker 11>Trump is doing without expounding on it because you don't

664
00:35:51.719 --> 00:35:55.519
<v Speaker 11>have time. It's criminal, It's actually criminal. Many of those

665
00:35:55.519 --> 00:36:00.000
<v Speaker 11>figures he puts up on that chart have been fat

666
00:36:00.119 --> 00:36:03.400
<v Speaker 11>checked and they're false. And the shame of it is,

667
00:36:03.679 --> 00:36:07.280
<v Speaker 11>if you're going to root out waste and fraud, you

668
00:36:07.480 --> 00:36:10.760
<v Speaker 11>at least be truthful about the employees. That's why the

669
00:36:10.840 --> 00:36:16.599
<v Speaker 11>judge today made Trump reinstate thousands of employees from several

670
00:36:16.639 --> 00:36:20.400
<v Speaker 11>different agencies because they got good reports and they actually

671
00:36:20.480 --> 00:36:23.679
<v Speaker 11>went to the judge and said they are not good

672
00:36:23.719 --> 00:36:27.239
<v Speaker 11>employees when the performance reviews which the judge had showed

673
00:36:27.239 --> 00:36:30.960
<v Speaker 11>that they were doing excellent work. And in reference to

674
00:36:31.800 --> 00:36:35.800
<v Speaker 11>employees and unions and companies coming back over here, for

675
00:36:35.840 --> 00:36:39.519
<v Speaker 11>the most part, almost one hundred percent of these companies

676
00:36:40.039 --> 00:36:45.880
<v Speaker 11>simply are profit driven. Absolutely. They don't want to pay

677
00:36:46.000 --> 00:36:50.280
<v Speaker 11>union fees, they don't want to pay for collective bargaining.

678
00:36:50.719 --> 00:36:53.320
<v Speaker 11>And they usually when they say, well they are the

679
00:36:53.679 --> 00:36:57.960
<v Speaker 11>job creators, they usually when they get their tax breaks,

680
00:36:58.280 --> 00:37:00.480
<v Speaker 11>they cloud that money back into both is for the

681
00:37:00.559 --> 00:37:03.880
<v Speaker 11>executives and they rebuy the stock of their companies. And

682
00:37:03.920 --> 00:37:08.960
<v Speaker 11>in reference to the situation overall, Dan, I have very

683
00:37:08.960 --> 00:37:12.519
<v Speaker 11>serious doubts as whether there would be another election, now

684
00:37:12.559 --> 00:37:14.559
<v Speaker 11>you've heard that. I'm not the only one to think that.

685
00:37:14.760 --> 00:37:18.519
<v Speaker 2>But I'm not going down at ten fifty eight. I'm

686
00:37:18.559 --> 00:37:23.039
<v Speaker 2>not going down that. Okay, that rabbit hole. If that's

687
00:37:23.079 --> 00:37:26.159
<v Speaker 2>what you fear, make sure you talk about it. Call

688
00:37:26.280 --> 00:37:28.719
<v Speaker 2>me some other night. I'll convince you to the contrary.

689
00:37:28.760 --> 00:37:31.639
<v Speaker 2>But that's neither here to there. In terms of companies,

690
00:37:32.719 --> 00:37:37.920
<v Speaker 2>companies are funded primarily by investors. Investors expect to get

691
00:37:37.920 --> 00:37:41.960
<v Speaker 2>their money back. Corporations employ a hell of a lot

692
00:37:42.000 --> 00:37:45.559
<v Speaker 2>of people in this country, Theodore. I've worked for corporations

693
00:37:45.559 --> 00:37:50.119
<v Speaker 2>my entire life. If I hadn't worked for corporations, I

694
00:37:50.159 --> 00:37:52.039
<v Speaker 2>don't know what I would have done. I've worked in

695
00:37:52.039 --> 00:37:55.400
<v Speaker 2>the broadcast industry and all of those companies. A lot

696
00:37:55.480 --> 00:37:58.000
<v Speaker 2>of those companies are going out of business, okay, because

697
00:37:58.239 --> 00:38:01.079
<v Speaker 2>the newspapers are going out of business, because people lives

698
00:38:01.079 --> 00:38:07.360
<v Speaker 2>are changing here. It's you know, capitalism works, Uh, that

699
00:38:07.800 --> 00:38:08.239
<v Speaker 2>is true.

700
00:38:08.599 --> 00:38:10.960
<v Speaker 11>And when and when you when we do have this

701
00:38:11.159 --> 00:38:14.159
<v Speaker 11>conversation with more time, where you can convince me the opposite,

702
00:38:14.599 --> 00:38:17.360
<v Speaker 11>I will be coming to the court with the radio court,

703
00:38:17.400 --> 00:38:19.000
<v Speaker 11>with a bevy of bevy of lawyers.

704
00:38:19.000 --> 00:38:21.079
<v Speaker 3>How's that Okay? Good enough? Sounds good?

705
00:38:21.400 --> 00:38:25.079
<v Speaker 2>Sounds good to have a great mine. Good night, Here

706
00:38:25.119 --> 00:38:27.840
<v Speaker 2>comes the eleven. I'd like to stay with this if

707
00:38:27.840 --> 00:38:29.559
<v Speaker 2>you want to light the phones up. If not, we'll

708
00:38:29.639 --> 00:38:31.760
<v Speaker 2>change topics. Coming back after this one night sight
