Is not leading the world in coronavirus testing but we are leading the world in corona virus deaths does that count that we get a prize for that you know maybe a decoder ring or plastic spider to scare your friends. Were probably also close to leading the way in the level of unemployment increase during the pandemic so theres Something Else to be proud of right now we have to ask ourselves is there another way we could be doing things right now is there a better way yes of course paris lets take a look at countries that dont have corndog brains look at denmark denmark has had almost twice as much testing per capita as the United States and fewer than half as many deaths per capita that would mean around 40 or 50000. 00 extra americans have died in the past few months because we have not dealt with this as well as denmark that 169 elevenths that could have been stopped if we hadnt behaved like idiots but death is not the only problem caused by this pandemic theres also the economic collapse which is bad for everyone unless youre a day trader betting that everything will be awful for those people right now is like mardi gras with fewer naked but an equal amount of pissing in the streets so us lost a staggering 20500000. 00 jobs in april bringing the jobless rate to its highest level since the Great Depression 14. 7 percent. And even Steve Menuhin our treasury secretary who has carnal relations with a roll of silver dollars every night under a framed portrait of Ronald Reagan having carnal relations with the same roll of silver dollars even that guy says unemployment could get to 25 percent one out of every 4 adults i did the math myself but. Yet in denmark salut different danes have kept their jobs denmarks Unemployment Rate is hovering in the range of 4 to 5 percent you see denmark dealt with the whole employment thing different than we have fun fact thats their police force during the pandemic denmark paid their companies to keep employees on the payroll reimbursing up to 90 percent of wages of workers who otherwise would have been laid off denmark also helped hard hit Companies Pay fixed costs like rent on the condition that they suspend dividends dont buy back stock and dont use foreign havens to of aid taxes ah so rather than give trillions of dollars to big banks and the largest corporations in the world while a 4th of the workforce was fired denmark paid companies to keep their employees and keep paying them do you see the difference starting pay for the humblest burger flipper at mcdonalds in denmark is about 22 dollars an hour once various pay supplements are included the mcdonalds workers in denmark get 6 weeks of paid vacation a year Life Insurance a years paid Maternity Leave and a pension plan and like all danes they enjoy universal medical insurance and paid sick leave. 6 weeks of paid vacation oh years paid Maternity Leave you couldnt get that out of well America Mcdonalds do have a year of paid Maternity Leave but only if you get knocked up by the regional manager and then threaten to reveal the baby is his if he doesnt give you a year off but that maternity plan is not available to every employee but i dont just bring this up so we can all go wow being a worker in denmark sounds much better the larger point is that when workers are treated better when they have security and a Higher Quality of life the benefits everyone even the upper class this pandemic which will kill over a 100000 people in the United States would have been a far less devastating to everyone if workers had security and a solid safety net as the New York Times said one reason denmark was more effective than the us in responding to this crisis is that no dana hesitated to seek treatment because of concerns about medical bills could you imagine that. Feeling sick in any way and thinking its a good idea to go see a doctor. We know i think in america all americans look at going to the doctor like going to see on loan sharks in force or name tino when youre 6 months behind on your payments you know that no matter how you felt going in your leavin whether freshly broken leg and a bill for more than you make in a decade. Our system of punishing people for going to the doctor punishing people for working is the opposite of how a good society should be set up and now right now the essential workers have more power than ever before now is the time to demand human rights now is the time to demand to be like denmark so we dont have as much wobble wobble its whack coming from washington d. C. The belly the bases redacted tonight. Welcome on live cam now its like the news from behind new numbers have come out showing how much people are suffering from this pandemic and its even worse for black and hispanic families 61 percent of hispanic families say they or someone in their household lost a job or saw their pay cut because of the pandemic according to a pew report that compares to 44 percent of black workers and 38 percent of white workers. Ive noticed that polls like this they they they they always make america come across as racist. Clearly the answer to solving our systemic racism is banning paulas theyre making us look bad this is why donald trump has led the charge against mass in this country he doesnt care for and neither should you know mass means no poll numbers no poll numbers means no more racism trump has solved racism youre welcome people of america mainly the white people anyway with more citizens out of work than the Great Depression a lot of lower and middle class americans are beginning to wonder where all this much touted bailout money is actually going because they know it i dont know them but you keep hearing about it right the government is the government going to bail everyone 6 out the money is common dont worry the money is out there will be in soon but we keep hearing about it. I dont see though i feel like bailout dollars are like having threesomes everyone keeps talking about them but ive never seen it where where are these magical things ok i did winds have a threesome but it lasted like 2 minutes and then someone said to someone else this would be a lot more fun if you werent here sucking on my toes but i regret nothing less and ive lived my life with no regrets. Except not having regrets i kind of wish i did more crazy stuff that i later regretted so my only regret is having no regrets. Anyway thanks to my Investigative Journalism i have found the answer to where all the bailout money and go and youre welcome and buy ive found the answer i mean economist alan brown has found the answer Congress Seems to be at war with the states he says only 150000000000. 00 of its nearly 3 trillion dollars Coronavirus Relief package a mere 5 percent has been allocated to the 50 states and they are not allowed to use it where they need it most to plug the holes in their budgets caused by the mandatory shutdown the rest of those trillions are going to wall street and the big banks well all being the rich several boarded the rich no one could a thing thats common alan brown continues the banks have made out extremely well in this crisis the Federal Reserve has dropped Interest Rates to point to 5 percent eliminated reserve requirements and relaxed Capital Requirements banks can now borrow effectively for free now some people tried to refute claims that banks are getting away with robbery by going its just a loan they have to pay a baggage its a loan but these people dont seem to understand that money is power heres an example my friend is broke and desperately needs money i then take out a loan of 100. 00 and i tell him ill give him the 100 if he dances with it in the air in an underwear on his head in front of a horrified seniors only church choir he does it i give him the money i then later pay back my loan to the bank technically i havent gained a dime right but ive humiliated my friend in such a way that hell never recover from it itll sit in his subconscious forever giving me a slight psychic edge over him at all times thats what the banks are doing now to main street. America kind of but with more crying and selling off of cherished keep sakes so that you dont have to start running tricks now lets get to a segment im calling stupid are some people making me look bad. We go to texas for this 122. 00 protesters were demanding a rent freeze when they were arrested in austin last week they were involved in a slow driving protest in which they drove their cars at 5 Miles Per Hour on the highway to draw attention to the much needed rent strike now i was unaware that driving slow was illegal i mean in that case my grandmother is a supervillain shes been going 9 mph in the fast lane since she 1st got her horse and buggy license one time it took us 2 years to get to the post office shes going back in time once so let me see if i have this right completely corrupt incompetent government has completely corrupt incompetent response to a global viral outbreak these completely corrupt incompetent people then failed to protect average hardworking americans fail to help them maintain some form of income and fail to help them deal with their living situations out of jasper ration do those hardworking americans beat up lawmakers to a bloody pulp now do they blow up a building or some other terrorist act now those average americans drive oh a little slower on the highway in a peaceful act of. A 30 then arrest the drivers while the completely corrupt incompetent Government People go back to their eyes wide shut naked lady parties on jeffrey abstain use a dolphin chair is very liberal cant. Anyway. These are some awesome protesters. And theyre making me look back now i get. You guys some. They are not just standing up for themselves theyre standing up for everyone out there who can pay that who cant pay their rent right now besides in the land of the free should it really be illegal to go slow. Well then i guess. As goodbar are. Moving on a new report is out showing the human cost of the Climate Crisis will hit harder wider and sooner than previously believed according to a study that shows a 1000000000. 00 people will either be displaced or forced to endure insufferable heat and they all mean the good kind of hot like Patrick Swayze and dirty dancing or Jessica Chaz Dane and all of the things they mean the bad kind of hot like the sweat in Donald Trumps neck folds and dont try to avoid thinking about those stinky skin patches of oil do you about Climate Change has gotten us nowhere its time to rub all of humanitys faces in that putrid un camp dystopian gas flash that hangs all boreas play from trumps ranson jalouse you look at those you look and you think about what youve done bad bad humanity bad. The study continues areas currently home to a 3rd of the worlds population will be as hot as the hottest parts of the Sahara Desert within 50 years all 3rd of the worlds population will either need to flee or turn into some sort of camel human hybrid storing water in their own gorged sheets and using the term. To refer to their actual toads call me crazy but making a 3rd of the world uninhabitable so that we can keep burning fossil fuels hes crazy so call me crazy but im calling you crazy as that feel or youll junky. The i. P. C. C. Estimates we have less than 10 years until the point of no return and i dont know if you know this but the point of no return. Its not pleasant i hear it gets very few return customers people like no thank you no the lines for the rides way too long and the bathroom smelled of death. We had to go to a quick break but if you dont have time to watch your back to the night every week i mean come on you should but if you dont you can listen to the free podcast called moment of clarity its free every week on i tunes stitcher and spotify and it has all of redacted tonight also you can go watch my standup comedy special for free taped in front of a live to audit Live Audience in los angeles remember Live Audiences its at least camp american dot com ill be right back a lot more. And im on the phone if i used my phone suede dont assume. That he could still move it to you i. Was asleep thats what i try not to see in the distance i had this look at the work that i was and i know you still are and thats. The only thing that we do is music because everybodys. Use wait. For. This bill to the studio that you have given it to on the. What i seek to do is this is the funds that the. We go to work. Straight home. Welcome back from still only camp walk congress refuses to even entertain medicare for all private Health Insurance companies are lobbying for bailout money from lawmakers who continue to enjoy gold plated government funded health care on our dime for more on this we go to our truth bomb now let me go. It is so stressful reading the news in this country that i honestly cant go longer than 5 minutes before needing to listen to another you tube guided meditation to call me down scuse me. I want you to close your eyes and imagine a country where there is no night. No Global Warming you can afford it is the subscription and theres universal health care. Id like to imagine that last one but it does me plus well release the song of the south before that happens any time soon yet youd think congress would be on board with some type of government funded health care considering our Tax Dollars Fund their health care through the office of attending physician or a way headed by a dr Brian Monahan a man who will lose his job once trying figures out hes an obama appointee but the o. E. P. Is budget much like the number of t. V. Shows starring guy here he expanded by 25 percent over the past decade and according to the intercept the last congressional appropriations bill passed in december increased the budget for the office by an additional 70000. 00 to nearly 3900000 dollars this year youre about that type of money being thrown around cant be great for americans living in states that have to scrounge for coronavirus test kits the same way we look under our couch for loose change that isnt attached to chewed or a dead mouse or chewed gum on a dead mouse even if your state does get tests they have to hide them from the federal government like you had a bad report card from your mom. But whats frustrating is that members of Congress Like senator marco rubio who earned 6 figures a year to tweet like please stop spreading stupid rumors about martial law are only chartered around 600. 00 an annual fee which covers a small fraction of the cost for a way p operations and whats even more frustrating than senator rubio also tweeting i apologize for the typo i meant to type stupid rumors about marital law not martial law is that even of rubio or his colleagues the klein to pay the fee hes still entitled to treatment according 282009 a. B. C. News investigation of the a. P. In 28240. 00 members paid the annual fee though some sources say congressman who didnt pay the fee were rarely prevented from using o. A. P. Services our lawmakers remain indifferent to medicare for all while getting letters from the private Health Insurance lobby asking for a bailout because as coronavirus survivors begin the task of identifying which organs they could sell in the black market to pay for their medical bills the massive lobbying group known as americas Health Insurance plans which represents Insurance Companies like cigna and anthem wrote a letter to congress on april 8th asking for assistance against the unknowns of the pandemic like subsidies for employers and consumers but even cigna see it made it to the Global Investment bank u. B. S. That expensive covert 1000 medical claims were actually being offset by cancelled elective surgeries and other procedures and a model developed by u. B. S. Shows Insurance Companies will benefit if up to 14 percent of the u. S. Population is infected with covert one team that would be about 45000000. 00 people compared with just over 1000000. 00 confirmed infections as of late april so in reality ahabs asked from congress was just the way to make extra profit off your coughing fit. Which is no less to range than a Health Insurance see where in the sure with the same phrase but thats no surprise given our healthcare model is profit driven and not people driven and while congress is enjoying world class government funded health care they need to be doing more to ensure that everyones access to health care doesnt depend on their Employment Status because there are a lot of jobless people right now and the longer they see this disparity the less effective these guided meditations will be oh theres a new one by the same you tube channel. Close their eyes. Take a deep breath. And imagine a world where radicals if you know actually knows how to spell optional. Yeah i dont think that exists.
