chances are they are going to vote and to carley: one more question for you. we ll republicans gain control of the house? without a doubt. carley: what about the senate? i think it s closer to 25-30 seats in the republicans have a good shot to pick up the senate also. 36 more days to go. thank you so much for joining us. todd? over to you. todd: hurricane leaving florida businesses scrambling to pick up the pieces. one small business owner we spoke to said she s a ready lost thousand dollars in sales. but she considers herself lucky. we are checking back with her next. climate crusaders facing criticism from an unlikely person. tell you why bill gates is lecturing the left. anyone who says people to stop eating meat or have a nice house and will just basically change human desires?
didn t lose a home or entire business. but she did suffer some and so we appreciate you taking the time telling us what you experienced and our thoughts and prayers are with the great people of the state of florida up you happy you are doing okay. thanks, peggy. thank you, todd. have a good day. todd: you as well. to be to billing activist bill gates admitting some green efforts are falling short. anyone who says or will tell people to stop eating meat or stop wanting to have a nice house and we ll just basically change human desires i think that s too difficult. i m looking at what the world has to do to get to zero not using climate as a moral crusade. carley: he spends $9 million a year to counter his carbon footprint. he suggests giving people an option to pay a premium to go green as an alternative. there is also this big
strong father figure leading the family unit and promoting self-government. if you remove those barriers of solve governing, you re actively encouraging chaos. one of the basic human desires is for peace and order. if individuals and families won t govern themselves, you re having the state to insert itself into that chaos to provide some semblance of order. with that comes more authoritarianism. if we want a society that wants to solve problems look at the fatherless situation where without a father, it s four times more likely to have more drug use, alcohol use, poverty, 70% in juvenile detention centers come from fatherless homes. 90% of school shooters come from fatherless homes. if we want to fix this problem, we have to is a society and government that respects human life and respects the premise of traditional marriage of a man and a woman and has policies that encourage and strengthen

that, what is the answer? countries are very complicated, so there are likely many answers but one of those answers may be that the population of afghanistan has firmly rejected what our leaders were selling it over 20 years. it turns out that the people of afghanistan don t actually want gender studies symposium. they didn t actually buy the idea that men can become pregnant. they thought that was ridiculous. they don t hate their own masculinity. they don t think it s toxic, they like the patriarchy, some other women like it so now they are getting it all back. so maybe it s possible that we failed in afghanistan because the entire neoliberal program is grotesque, it s a joke, it s contrary to human nature, it answers none of our deepest human desires, it is merely a performance stage for the performer, not even supposed to improve your life.
