We'll get to all the news in just one moment.

0:23.2

First, you are spending way too much on your cell phone bill.

0:25.1

I know because if you're spending with one of the big companies, by necessity, you are spending too much on your cell phone bills.

0:29.6

Why?

0:29.8

Because they are not clear about what you are actually getting for your money.

0:32.9

When you ask them, they're not going to be completely transparent about what it is that you get.

0:36.2

They'll tell you things like unlimited talk, unlimited text, and unlimited data.

0:39.2

But do you actually need unlimited data?

0:40.8

The answer is you probably do not. What you actually need is unlimited talk, text, and two gigs of data for just 20 bucks a month. Your family could be saving over $800 a year just by switching to Pure Talk USA. You don't have to sacrifice coverage to do this, by the way. Pure Talk has the same coverage, same bars, as one of the big carriers, but they will charge you half. So right now, grab your mobile phone, dial pound 250, say Ben Shapiro to get started on saving money on your cell phone bill. Again, same coverage as one of the big carriers, and you're spending like a lot less money. Go check them out right now. And when you do, when you dial pound pound 250 and say my name, Ben Shapiro, you save 50% off your first month. Again, dial pound 250. Say, Ben Shapiro, Pure Talk is simply smarter wireless. You're paying for what you need instead of paying for a bunch of stuff you don't need and you're saving yourself a bunch of money. Go check them out right now. Dial pound 250. Say Ben Shapiro get 50% off your first month of Pure Talk USA. Okay, so there's an ongoing problem in the country. It's something I've

1:29.0

been talking about for a while. That problem is, of course, political division, political polarization.

1:34.6

And some of that is rooted in the fact that there are real serious disagreements about

1:40.7

the future of the country. As I talk about in my book, How to Destroy America in three easy steps, there are real divisions about what people think about the history of the United States, what people think about the philosophy of the United States, what people think about the culture of the United States, like real divisions on where we want to go. Some people want to end up in Denmark. They mistakenly believe that if we apply Denmark's policies in the United States,

1:44.9

we'll end up with Denmark's results that is not accurate.

2:03.2

There are some people who wish to preserve traditional American liberties in the face of communalistic enterprises.

2:05.4

These are very, very different visions. But it used to be that thanks to the federalist structure,

2:11.8

thanks to the localism of the United States government, thanks to the fact that the federal government was not in charge of everything, and we had a system of checks and balances that prevented mob rule and pure majoritarian cram downs, that because of that, we were all able to live in a country together. You could live in California and live like a Californian, and you didn't have to live like a Floridian or a Texan or an Alabama and the same thing the other way around. You could live in a town where people agreed with you and the next town over, people would disagree with you. And you know what? Y'all shared the same country because you shared the same fundamental basic precepts. A lot of that seems to have been lost and that is being exacerbated right now by the creation of what Charles Murray called in his great book Coming Apart, he called the new

2:16.3

elite class. and that is being exacerbated right now by the creation of what Charles Murray called in his great book coming apart.
