| 0:00.0 | It is 932. It's kind of in KC on 93 WIBC. So then there's a new poll out that says most |
| 0:11.6 | Americans oppose putting US troops on the ground in Israel, but do want to send more humanitarian |
| 0:18.2 | and military aid. Okay. Yeah. I'm really surprised. Yeah, but see, they don't ask the |
| 0:28.3 | questions the right way. And we, well, we had a rather long conversation about that last night |
| 0:33.7 | on the west side of Indianapolis. It's easy to ask someone, do you want something? And of course, |
| 0:40.8 | people are going to want whatever the wildly popular thing is, like KC, would you like a Ferrari? |
| 0:51.2 | Sure. Okay. So now if I'm doing a survey, I guarantee you 99% of the people I'm going to ask, |
| 0:57.4 | would you like a Ferrari? You're going to say, yeah, I'd like a Ferrari. I'm sure the maintenance |
| 1:00.3 | on that's pretty high. KC. Yeah. Would you like to provide the financing for a Ferrari? No. Would |

| 1:24.2 | Would you like to send more financial and military aid to Israel if you knew it will continue |
| 1:29.5 | to make everything you have to purchase more expensive? Yeah. Word the question like that because when |
| 1:34.8 | we talk about sending money somewhere, we're talking about printing the money because we have no |
| 1:39.7 | money every, we are whatever it is, 30 through I've lost track. Now KC is it 33 or 34? Whatever |
| 1:46.2 | number it is, trillion dollars in debt. So that means every dollar that we do for something that |
| 1:52.0 | isn't already allocated for, it comes off the printing press. And it means that inflation goes |
| 1:57.1 | higher because government spending as we've heard time and time again is the primary driver of |
| 2:01.0 | inflation. That's how you word the question. Then we'll find out how bad people want to send |
| 2:06.2 | stuff to Israel. Right. So this poll that was conducted, it found out that 55% majority said |
| 2:12.2 | they wanted the US to provide more financial and military aid. 27% were opposed to that. |
