Transcripts For RT The World According To Jesse 20240713

About a mass famine last year citing conflicts and natural disasters but the virus has further strains of global food systems the executive director of the world fruit food program says quote this is a perfect storm where looking at widespread famine of biblical proportions at least 265000000 people in the developing world may soon experience widespread hunger if things dont change jessie. Walbridge you know where you came at me with their so this morning i really didnt know i was caught off guard i really was i didnt realize that our food was in such danger worldwide and that there were so many people in danger worldwide and then you had the corona virus to wood which complicates matters further. To this really came back to me as. Were going to have to talk here about an entire cultural change that this corona virus as well as the food shortage is going to cause us as human beings to have to change our way of living on this planet i think theres no other way around it you know im going to tell you how i feel i i view the earth as a living entity the planet itself and we are on this planet we are nothing more than we feed off the planet were like the wood tech we contribute nothing we just take take take from this entity this living thing called the earth well maybe we should look at the corona virus maybe the earth is telling us stop it. Youve got to live differently name and with the food with the food shortage we have now out there this is going to be a disaster waiting to happen people starving to death on the planet earth its good to require bruges cultural change that we start eating differently were all going to have to start moving towards vegetarianism because one of the big problems is meat through all of this stuff and were going to have to change as a society as a culture as human beings or were going to receive the blowback of the results of all this remember this human beings are parasites on the earth they only produce one thing one thing im mad as plastic and plastic as a pro and conduit yes plastics good on one hand but why is the earth and the oceans throwing it back at us on the other hand you know so were the parasites on this planet and we better start treating the planet better or the planets going to shake us off like a tick would tick or a flea on a dog had just seen a food supply was there not limited to the developing world in fact supply chain disruptions. The pandemic are now apparent right here in the United States some of the countrys largest Food Processing plants have been ordered by states to temporary league clothes as thousands of workers test positive for the Novel Coronavirus including tyson foods smithfield and j. B. S. All meat producers but President Donald Trump has announced plans to require plants to stay open citing the defense production act after tyson foods announced that millions of pounds of meat were expected to disappear from store shelves and less operations continue so far at least one large chicken Processing Company was forced to reportedly killed 2000000. 00 birds due to workers shortages pig and cattle farmers are also considering euthanizing herds due to supply chain interruptions even potato farmers and i dont know have been forced to deal with having too many crops on hand one farm is reportedly giving away 2000000 potatoes so they dont go to waste just a lot of people are worried that were going to run out of food here in the United States but experts say thats incredibly unlikely the main problem is that we just cant seem to get food from the factories or the farms out to the people how can the supply chain possibly break in such a high tech interconnected world. Will break easy wed restaurants are ordering anything because restaurants started feeding everyone lets face it in the United States of america the Restaurant Business is huge. Everybody the whole meal and what this virus is done its really caused us to go back in our houses and Start Cooking again for ourselves and start producing for ourselves. The major impact that it has when restaurants are not sitting people down for 3 meals a day thats where theres food thats why theres over abundance of it still in the stores pretty well but i think this is. Cause a direct effect of blowback from restaurants not being opened and van not being able to serve their food now weve got this glut in an overabundance of food but why dont they just give it away. Better to give it away than destroy it hail to the potato farmers i mean if you cant sell what give it away dont let it go to just waste there is hungry people out there obviously and so the point is we just try to get ahold of the situation were going to go through these hard times but theyve assured us were not going to run out of food and i tend to believe thats true but i tend to believe were going to waste a lot of food and a lot of food is going to be destroyed that could have been. But the coronavirus stop that from happening because of the restaurants or to asian. Yeah absolutely the u. S. Department of agriculture has now been criticized for letting millions of pounds of American Produce rot as millions of americans struggle to put food on the table did a lot of wages at least 40 percent of the countrys a Fresh Produce is typically air marked for the Food Service Industry but with demand for restaurants plummeting as you just said growers say that theyre left with no choice but to leave crops the decaying in the field the u. S. D. A. Has failed here its job is to buy and distribute food crops to schools food banks and communities the need but its been way too slow to react what do you think about this disaster. Well again you know our current president news of ministration was completely slow to react to this pandemic so since they didnt believe the pandemic was real why would they react to the food situation theyve been mapped in everything unless its on trumps front vision right in front of his face that he cares about it he could care less about anything else until it comes up and bites him on the you know what and well this is baby im. You know what so he has to Pay Attention to it because its of of major world proportion going on how could they have overlooked their spare and how could it have been nor the last november or december even before that and there was no place in the big excuse was the rock obama left the shelves empty well excuse me you have 3 years to fill up the shelves youre up for reelection you cant blame obama anymore donald trump it sits on your shoulders now except the boy and the problem. The u. S. Based Multinational Corporation tyson foods has been very vocal about being forced to shut down due to worker illnesses tyson has a history of worker abuse including denying workers bathroom breaks and on this show jesse weve previously talked about the allegations by workers who say they were forced to limit liquid intake and wear diapers on the job due to poor working conditions the company has since devalued to do better but so far at least 6 tyson workers have died from the corona virus and hundreds more have tested positive its likely they will have those test results since will have better numbers workers say the company put them at risk by failing to tell them about sick employees and by not implementing safeguards early on but tyson is not the only company thats treated essential workers poorly low wage workers are constantly told that theyre not important enough to earn a living wage yet here they are providing the public with food and other Important Services if this is a good society to reevaluate how we treat the labor force what will. Exactly 0 the the low workers these are the people that nobody pays attention to where would we be without them i brought up the other show a week ago about the garbage man. And sings like that where would we be without them wed be lost without them and that brings me to the point im gonna make another point youre in shock. Everybody talks about minimum wage id like to see a maximum wage where you can only make 1000000. 00 of bonds 12000000. 00 a year everybody that cant live on a 1000000. 00 a month maybe we ought to bring the Capital Punishment back because you know what were doing dogs and anything beyond that there is no job that to me you work you earn a 1000000. 00 a month i used to run the jackhammer theres not a harder job in the world and yet i didnt get paid like that youre telling me somebody pushing a pencil deserves more that matter well enough on that tirade but again its showing us right now essential these workers are twice about when you knock some low wage worker because without them youre trouble. You may be on to something with the maximum wage especially during this pandemic when you see the rich getting richer and poor people still trying to figure out whether theyre even getting those loans they were promised so i dont think its a terrible idea now in other news the Police Departments in california have been citing and arresting people for watching the sunset going surfing or having picnics on the beach in violation of the states stay at home order is the violations carry fines of up to 1000 dollars 6 months in jail or both people are getting fed up weve now seen protests across several u. S. Cities now on one hand some of the protesters are putting Public Health at risk this is dangerous theyre not Wearing Masks theyre not following social distancing recommendations but on the other hand just the unemployment rates are soaring to unprecedented levels people want to go back to work especially since Financial Aid is lacking and going to people who dont even need it in some cases so in your opinion where is the line. Between protecting Public Health Civil Liberties and authoritarian government. Well i got a lot ask a lot of questions here and throw them out there 1st and foremost to my knowledge the government cannot put you under house arrest the constitution of the United States of america does not allow that unless you declare martial law d and that means the military takes over the constitution is suspended now in california theyre arresting people for going out and looking at sunsets and all that i would question california is what are you doing about the homeless then are you arresting all them too and putting them in jail because youve got a Homeless Population in california thats bursting up the walls and you can bet theyve got nowhere to run and i theyre out there together they cant go home because theyre homeless thus the name so i think again that the government cant what we have going on right now is like a volunteer martial law we are volunteer in to follow the expertise of our lawmakers who are asking us to stay at home we need to do that but it is not they shouldnt be a resting people for going out and looking at a sunset arresting people because theres more than 10 people at the beach thats ridiculous because if youre arresting people arent you contributing to the problem youre not going to put them in an area and youre not going to have your 6th division ardea. You know the end doesnt just it doesnt justify itself finding Something Better to do police in california that in for something as ridiculous as that its time for a quick break when we return jesse if its down with jan bryant to talk about congresss plan to save the u. S. Economy during the global kobe 1000. 00 pandemic. The world. 30 years ago the burl and wall fell the cold war had essentially come to an end the fall of this cold war symbol was heralded as a new spring of nations and the end of communism decades on what is the legacy of this historic event the promises of 1909 been fulfilled. But i. See. I was on the floor some things in my back you know trying praying. And this time west. I was having children fever i didnt have any sense of say so so now im in the most you know and i. Would you. Recently she you know sometimes you just used to. Have to. Push myself plugged it into the main the face. Im just turn. To what is your. Role. In the world according to cherish. Im pleased to welcome back gen briony host of the congressional bush pod cast she joins me today to discuss the coronavirus aid relief and Economic Security act thats quite a mouthful jen thank you as i said before we went on the air i want to thank you because you allow me not to keep track of congress because you do such a great job of it so all i got to do is bring you on to learn what congress is doing or not doing as it might be but anyway Congress Passed the cares act to address the economic fallout from the coronavirus 19 pandemic but many people still havent seen any Financial Aid based on what you read in the pages of that bill will the average or poor americans finally get their hands on the aid the congress promised them. Well 1st of a cue for having me back i always love doing your show so after i read the cares act there it really depends on what kind of aid youre talking about so some people were sent stimulus checks and i know that those are being held up in the mail because trump wanted to have his name on them but they will arrive i have no doubt about that same with the Unemployment Benefits people are having trouble signing up for that but i myself have been on unemployment and i know once youre in the system the checks to arrive so im confident about that the one thing though is that theyve been promised Small Businesses in particular have been spared promised these loans that are forgivable and the program is good but the problem is that the funding is limited and even though its designed it was supposed to be designed to be for Small Businesses big businesses have access to it and theyre draining it and so people are going to be left out of that system so its really a mixed bag it depends on what youre looking for. Ok now people need a hope right now and before we dive into all the rest of the problems out there. What congress is response to the outbreak. Some of the positives tell us some of the positives that have come out of this act if theyre already sure oh yes theres definitely positives because what were looking at is a fire hose of money and so some of that 1st search is going to end up where its needed so theres a significant amount of money thats going to be directed specifically for hospitals theres like theres services now for the elderly theyre going to be able to get taxpayer provided food delivery so that they dont have to leave the house theres also rules that can help a lot of us so for instance Insurance Companies are going to be required to pay for testing for not only covered 1000 but also the antibodies to see if weve had it before. Theres a posin Student Loans you dont have to make payments until september 30th and my favorite thing about this is that the unemployment expansion provisions are really strong its a legit well funded safety net thats going to help millions of people so theres definitely good things in the cares act to balance out all the bat. Ok now the federal response to the crisis highlights just how bad the economic inequality is in america why are the wealthy companies and people getting Financial Aid before the very poor counterpart. Well i think its the nature of the fact that big businesses have many avenues for getting cash so they have ones that already existed they can go to the banks theyre big customers they can get loans quite easily they have stock Market Access thats how they can raise capital and then Congress Gave them even more avenues for cash so they can get these direct loans now from the Treasury Department from the Federal Reserve the Federal Reserve ones have very few restrictions and also the big businesses like i said have access to the Small Business loans and the reason that thats possible is they defined a Small Business as a business with fewer than 500 employees per physical location and so that loophole the location thing it allows stores like like restaurants like fogo to check out fancy steak houses all over the country but each individual store has less than 500. 00 employees and so that big business has access to the Small Business funds and thats why its running out of money as quickly as it is and so because the big businesses have all these avenues for cash and a few ones that are available for smaller less wealthy people have less cash and are limited its kind of the same thing that happens in society in general the wealthy have more access to cash we dont and so a lot of people are getting left out but theres a loophole in there that needs to be closed to make that better. Well you kind of touched on it the big banks of also played favorites by letting wealthy clients of course. They can they can. They cut the line to receive Paycheck Program loans and in the 1st round of votes if the funding was very unfair will this practice stop now from the banks or your figure will. No not at all because you know what can congress came back and put more money in the Small Business fund but they didnt prohibit any banking behavior instead what congress decided to do their solution was to require 20 percent of the new money to flow through Smaller Banks but even a small bank can prioritize their wealthie
