\"Listen<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: We have Jeannie on the phone from Houston. Hi, Jeannie. I\u2019m glad you called.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Hey, Rush. What an honor to talk to you.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I\u2019m so happy to be on the program.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Thank you very much.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I just wanted to call in after the call yesterday and let you know that I am a nurse and a doctor, and I didn\u2019t become a doctor by working as a nurse for 20 years. I wanted to shed a little light as to what that doctor\u2019s doing that they referred to yesterday that “rounds” for an hour and then —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Let me set this up.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Sure.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: It\u2019s probably 95% of people listening now heard that all yesterday<\/a>, but there might be some people listening today that didn\u2019t hear this. We had a guy call in the third hour of the program yesterday. His nose was bent out of shape at the unfairness in America and the inequality in America. His basic point was we have all these nurses, and they\u2019re the ones doing all the work in the hospitals, and doctors don\u2019t do diddly-squat.<\/p>\n

(summarized) “The doctors show up once a week, and then they run around, play golf or whatever while the nurses are doing the work. You know, the nurses ought to be the ones that are called doctors. The nurses ought to be able to become doctors. The nurses are doing all the work, and the doctors aren\u2019t doing diddly-squat, and nurses aren\u2019t making what the doctors make — and it really isn\u2019t fair!”<\/p>\n

He wanted to know what I thought of it. So that led to paralegals getting to feel like they\u2019re getting gypped, and it became a discussion on how mean and unfair America is. So now Jeannie from Houston is calling to weigh in on this. You say you\u2019ve been a doctor and a nurse. You were a nurse first, but being the nurse did not lead you to becoming the M.D.<\/p>\n

CALLER: No. They\u2019re two different ways to treat the patients. The nurses are at the bedside. But as far as making patient-care decisions, that\u2019s a little bit different. So, for instance, that doctor that maybe comes in the nursing home for an hour a week, the rest of the time you run your own practice, which is maybe 60 hours a week. You have to see patients that are in the hospital or in the nursing home before or after your regular practice. Your regular practice is running a small business.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Okay. Now, see, I made the point yesterday that a lot of people do not see anything other than the end point of someone\u2019s success track. You see a doctor, and you see him once a day at the old folks\u2019 home, but you don\u2019t see what it took to get there. You don\u2019t see what he\u2019s doing the other hours of the day when he\u2019s not at the old folks\u2019 home, and this is what Jeannie is trying to illustrate here.<\/line><\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes. So my undergraduate degree was as a nurse. In order for me to “round” for that one hour in the nursing home, I had to go back to school for eight more years. I had to take out loans for $300,000.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Yeah, but isn\u2019t that unfair? Because this guy\u2019s point was you already knew enough to be a doctor —<\/p>\n

CALLER: No.<\/p>\n

RUSH: — by being a nurse all those hours; that\u2019s what was unfair about it<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, Rush, no, because, you know, you can do something over and over again a thousand times but, as we know, that doesn\u2019t necessarily increase your knowledge. And at the end of the day, when somebody\u2019s sick, do they want to see a nurse or do they want to see a physician that\u2019s fished their training as a physician?<\/p>\n

RUSH: Well, it depends whether you\u2019re talking about a low-information guy or you\u2019re talking about somebody else.<\/p>\n

CALLER: Well, I think most of your listeners would want to see a physician. But there\u2019s a lot involved — and there is a lot of animosity, I think, between nurses and doctors. But I did just want to inform your listeners —<\/p>\n

RUSH: Quickly.<\/p>\n

CALLER: — that there\u2019s a lot more that goes on that they don\u2019t see that that doctor is doing.<\/line><\/p>\n

RUSH: And you\u2019ve seen it from both sides?<\/p>\n

CALLER: Yes, sir.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You\u2019ve been the nurse —<\/p>\n

CALLER: — I have.<\/p>\n

RUSH: — and now you are a doctor.<\/p>\n

CALLER: I am.<\/p>\n

RUSH: And you weren\u2019t promoted to doctor from nurse; you had to go back to school. That\u2019s okay. See, to me this makes perfect sense. Total sense, and I also… Look, I don\u2019t know. Jeannie, thanks. I gotta take a break.<\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: All right, folks, I\u2019ll tell you what\u2019s going on out there. Envy. Envy and jealousy. It\u2019s happening more and more, and in social media it\u2019s being said that that\u2019s perfectly fine. It\u2019s being excused. Totally justifiable. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: Look, folks, this doctor-nurse thing, there\u2019s no reason we need to make this complicated. It\u2019s nothing new, all right? Most people\u2019s historical perspective begins the day they were born. Most people\u2019s knowledge of history is when they\u2019re alive. This envy, wanting what somebody else has, thinking whatever somebody else has they don\u2019t deserve and that you are more entitled to it, you are working harder than they do, that they have gamed the system, there\u2019s nothing new about it. What is new is how that kind of envy is now being justified.<\/p>\n

JOHNNY DONOVAN: And now, from sunny south Florida, it\u2019s Open Line Friday!<\/p>\n

RUSH: I mean, there\u2019s all kinds of bad behavior that\u2019s always gone on. What\u2019s happening in America now, for whatever reason, is the bad behavior\u2019s being justified, and we\u2019re being told to understand it and to try connect with the people and how they feel. You can understand why they\u2019re envious and jealous, because they have a right to be, blah, blah, blah. <\/p>\n

So here we are at Open Line Friday, Rush Limbaugh, at 800-282-2882. The e-mail address, ElRushbo@eibnet.com. <\/p>\n

Okay. To set this up, out of the blue yesterday, we got a guy call on the phone, and I was a little slow on the uptake because what I thought he was going to talk about was entirely different, so I got kind of caught up short. It took me awhile to figure out where this guy was coming from. He starts out by saying he\u2019s a big conservative and so forth, but there was nothing conservative about what he was talking about. Whether he knew it or not, he was advocating pure socialism. <\/p>\n

He was upset, by the time I stripped everything away, this guy was upset that doctors don\u2019t work very hard and get all the money and nurses are doing all the work and don\u2019t get jack anything, and after being a nurse for 30 years, damn it, you ought to be a doctor. You\u2019re doing everything the doctors are doing; you know everything the doctor\u2019s do; the doctor\u2019s not doing diddly-squat, telling the nurse to do it all, the nurse is doing it, and still the nurses don\u2019t make anything the doctors make. So I finally figured out we just got a simple case of envy here, simple case of jealousy. <\/p>\n

I forget whether this guy was a nurse or his wife was a nurse or his daughter was a nurse or he hated his doctor, I don\u2019t remember what it was that inspired all this, but it\u2019s simple envy. Now, we\u2019ve always had envious people. We\u2019ve always had people among us who want somebody else\u2019s lifestyle. And we\u2019ve always had people around us who think that successful people really don\u2019t deserve it. They cheated somebody, or they inherited it, or they got lucky. Nothing new about that. There have always been people who think they\u2019ve been screwed. There have always been people who think they\u2019re the ones doing all the work and getting none of the credit and nobody pays them any attention.<\/p>\n

Those people are a dime a dozen. It\u2019s human nature. What\u2019s changing is the envy and the jealousy, we\u2019re now being told is understandable and it may be justifiable, and it may be legitimate. This entire proposition, shall we say, is explored in a piece in the New York Post.<\/a> “America\u00c2\u2019s Ugly Epidemic of Social Media Envy.” And it\u2019s by Karol Markowicz.<\/line><\/p>\n

“When did envy become OK? I\u00c2\u2019m constantly hearing or seeing not-very-guilty admissions of being jealous of a friend for, say, something seen on Instagram. Whether it\u00c2\u2019s eye-rolling at a friend\u00c2\u2019s exotic trip, snarking on someone\u00c2\u2019s great seats at the ballgame or commenting about an acquaintance\u00c2\u2019s restaurant-every-night life, jealousy is in.<\/p>\n

Have we become a culture of green-eyed monsters who (in the parlance of hip-hop) ‘hate on\u2019 our friends and acquaintances for all they have and we don\u00c2\u2019t? Maybe it\u00c2\u2019s social media. Study after study shows that our jealousy spikes with our use of social sharing sites.”<\/p>\n

That\u2019s what she says here. Study after study shows that our jealousy spikes, increases as we use social media. “People you know take more luxurious vacations than you do, their relationships are closer and more loving, their children better behaved and cuter — and the evidence is right there on the Web,” because they\u2019re posting pictures of all of this. “A University of Michigan study<\/a> released in August found that, the more people use Facebook, the worse they feel about their own lives.”<\/p>\n

Now, if I might, this was one of the major concerns I had when all of this social media exploded, because there\u2019s two things happening. One is this endless quest for fame. Everybody is just telling everything about themselves. They\u2019re not protecting any privacy. They think that\u2019s what fame is. They want everybody to know who they are and what they think and where they\u2019ve been and where they are, and where they\u2019re going, and how long it\u2019s gonna take \u2019em to get there. People are tweeting and four squaring, “Yeah, I\u2019m 10 minutes away from the restaurant. I\u2019m five minutes away. I just got here, where are you?” All of this is happening, real time, social media. <\/p>\n

The second thing about social media is everybody lies. I\u2019ve always worried that this was going to lead to actual depression, in the sense that because people are just who they are and they\u2019re gonna brag about their kids, they\u2019re gonna post their pictures and the vacation and all that, they\u2019re gonna create more insecurity out there than otherwise would be. They\u2019re gonna create illusory lifestyles. People are going to brag about how well they\u2019re living and how much fun they\u2019re having, when they may not be. But it\u2019s gonna look legit \u2019cause it\u2019s there. They got pictures of it, and they\u2019re writing about it, and it\u2019s gonna create all this insecurity and jealousy and envy, and it appears this is happening. <\/line><\/p>\n

And now, again, what\u2019s noteworthy about this is that all this jealousy and envy is somehow okay now. It\u2019s justifiable because it\u2019s being caused. The haves are braggarts now. The haves and the successful are lauding it over everybody and they\u2019re making people feel bad about themselves. And so the jealousy, we as a society have to try to understand it. And that\u2019s the point here. <\/p>\n

Now, the author here again is Karol Markowicz. “But is it just social media that makes us so envious? Or some deeper change that social media facilitate? I\u00c2\u2019m thinking of Karen Paperno, the owner of Park Slope baby boutique Boing Boing, who raged in a Huffington Post piece about the growing affluence of her neighborhood and her difficulty in keeping up with the Joneses. In this example of off-line jealousy, The New York Times picked up the story and detailed the difficult life of a middle-class woman in a rich neighborhood.”<\/p>\n

And, see, that just validates the envy. The New York Times comes along and does a story (sobbing), “Oh, look at how unfair! Look how unfortunate,” and it validates\/justifies the person who\u2019s feeling jealous and envious. Oh, “It\u2019s easy to feel sympathetic to Paperno, who works hard at a neighborhood business and whose husband\u2019s illness forced her to close a second business location. At least, it is until she admits to stealing ‘spices, honey, coconut oil, granola; expensive things that I wanted\u2019 from a store near her home, even as she derides the materialism of others.<\/p>\n

“The Times called the market ‘one of the many emblems of the new, consumerist Park Slope\u2019 but it\u2019s most likely a small business just like Paperno\u2019s. Should its owners be allowed to steal from her shop, too? … Never before have so many had so much while still wanting more. There\u2019s nothing new about jealousy and envy, of course,” the story says. “What\u2019s new is our cultural acceptance of it. In a world where we talk about ‘inequality\u2019…” Hello, President Obama and the Democrat Party!<\/p>\n

“In a world where we talk about ‘inequality\u2019 as the greatest problem we face, of course we support each other\u2019s need to have as much stuff as our friends and neighbors.” Of course it\u2019s not fair somebody has more! This is pure socialism what\u2019s happening here, and it\u2019s exactly what leads to socialism: The “unfairness.” The “unequal distribution of resources.” It\u2019s not fair, and so this guy that called yesterday is just simple jealousy and envy. <\/p>\n

Let\u2019s just say, for the sake of the discussion, he was the nurse, and he just doesn\u2019t want to do the work the doctor has to do to become a doctor, and he thinks he\u2019s justified in that. So raising taxes, for example, to redistribute wealth becomes justifiable. In fact, it becomes moral. Taking from people who have more than you have becomes moral because it\u2019s justified to be jealous and envious, because it isn\u2019t fair. Now, I\u2019ll tell you who\u2019s responsible for this. <\/p>\n

You can blame it on social media all you want. There\u2019s a political party that is living off of this kind of mentality. They\u2019re promoting it. They\u2019re getting votes based on it, and they claim they\u2019ve got a solution to it — and what is their solution? They\u2019re gonna punish the achievers. They\u2019re gonna punish the “haves.” So all of this talk about the widening gap, rich and poor — all this talk about growing inequality, income inequality, lifestyle inequality — all of it is political. <\/p>\n

Now, these people in this story haven\u2019t the slightest idea about any of it is. To them it\u2019s just human interest. They have no idea that they are being used. <\/line><\/a>They have no idea they\u2019re being exploited. They have no idea that all these ideas are being put in their heads. Well, not that, because envy and jealousy are common in the human condition. Again, what\u2019s different about it is that that is being justified. <\/line><\/p>\n

The envy and jealousy is being almost rewarded, and there\u2019s a political party out telling all those envious, jealous people, “Vote for us, and we\u2019ll punish those people that you hate! We\u2019ll get even with \u2019em for you, because we agree with you. They shouldn\u2019t have all that. You should have it. The rich have all that stuff \u2019cause they\u2019ve taken it from you!” People say, “Yeah, yeah, man! Yeah, man! I want to have a lot without having to do anything for it, too, man. Yeah. Cool.” <\/p>\n

Again: “Never before have so many had so much while still wanting more.” Never before have so many had so much and been so unhappy at the same time, and I\u2019m telling you — and I\u2019m not… Folks, I have this story. This was not even at the top of the Stack. I wasn\u2019t even gonna go into this until we got the call today from Jeannie in Houston that kept the call from the jealous male nurse from yesterday alive. <\/p>\n

So this was not even something I\u2019d spent any time thinking about. But just reading this story and now understanding that the ugly epidemic of social envy is justifiable, there\u2019s gonna be one reason for it. It\u2019s politicized. The effort to capitalize on this politically is really quite brilliant. This is the old class envy thing. The Democrats have been working on this for 50 years, and they\u2019ve finally introduced something new to the argument, and that is class envy makes sense.<\/p>\n

Class envy is rewardable. “Class envy is exactly what you should have, because you are being mistreated! You are being screwed, and these people who have more than you don\u2019t deserve it. These people who have more than you do, they came by it in ways that screwed you to get it — and we, the Democrat Party, are gonna fix it.” Now, for those of you who might be hearing this and thinking I\u2019m all wet on this being political, I want to ask you to think about something. <\/p>\n

Don\u2019t doubt me when I tell you that this has been a political strategy that has been employed by socialists, Democrats, leftists forever. It is how they have gotten to power. I want you to honestly search the world. I want you to find for me any country or society where the redistribution of wealth, punishing the achievers, has resulted in you getting what they have. I\u2019m here to tell you, it never does. <\/p>\n

The government will never do it.<\/line><\/p>\n

They\u2019re not even gonna really try. <\/p>\n

They just want you to think they are. The government will never make you a doctor if all you are is a nurse, and they will never take what that mean doctor has and give it to you. They\u2019ll make you think they want to, they\u2019ll make you think they\u2019re gonna try to (and they may raise the doctor\u2019s taxes), but they are not going to change your standard of living. They are not going to make you rich. <\/p>\n

In fact, they\u2019re not even gonna get rid of your envy. <\/p>\n

How many years have you been voting Democrat and you\u2019re still jealous? How many years have you been voting Democrat and you\u2019re still envious? How many years have you been voting Democrat and you\u2019re probably more envious than ever? How many years have you been voting Democrat and you\u2019re probably angrier than you\u2019ve ever been? So how\u2019s it working out for you, voting for all these people who are gonna make everything fair? They can\u2019t. <\/p>\n

They\u2019re not even really trying. <\/p>\n

What they\u2019re doing is making everybody poorer, and that\u2019s how they get to their precious equality. They don\u2019t elevate you. They will take from the people who have more than you, but you\u2019re not gonna get it. They do. It goes to the government. It\u2019s not gonna come to you. All that\u2019s gonna happen is everybody is gonna get poorer, and I challenge you. Don\u2019t believe me. Try to find anywhere in the world where politicians promising to fix what you think is wrong has made you richer or anybody richer or happier or more equal or what have you. <\/p>\n

It hasn\u2019t happened. <\/p>\n

The best thing you could do is stop with the envy, stop with the jealousy, stop being angry at others for what you don\u2019t have and figure out a way to go get it yourself.<\/p>\n

RUSH: A little KC and the Sunshine Band in the bumper rotation here at the EIB Network. <\/p>\n

Ladies and gentlemen, the three great political pathologies of modern times were all based on envy. Not political movement, pathologies. The three great political pathologies of modern times were all based on envy: Nazism. Nazism preached envy toward the rich and exploitative Jewish people, communism preaches envy toward the rich-exploitative bourgeoisie, and Muslim terrorism preaches envy toward the rich-exploitative West. <\/p>\n

The roots of this have been taking hold in this country. What do you think outcome-based education was? It\u2019s based on envy. What do you think not grading a paper with a red pen was all about? What do you think not having winners and losers in extracurricular football in high school is all about? What is all this stuff all about? It\u2019s all about envy and not having any.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
