It\u2019s Robbie.  Great to have you.  Hi.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Hi, Rush.  Last week you were talking about why my generation doesn\u2019t have hope.  I\u2019ve been thinking a lot about that, and it struck me that for thousands of years of human history, for almost all the history of the United States, human beings have understood that we have a choice about how our lives are gonna play out, and we have a way to overcome our backgrounds, if we come out of a rough background. <\/p>\n<p>But a movement has been mounting. You\u2019ve talked about it before, but it\u2019s kind of taboo to talk about, I\u2019ve found. A movement has been mounting throughout probably the nineteenth century, that grew momentum in the twentieth century, and possibly for the first time, it\u2019s been universally accepted in my generation that you\u2019re born with it. You don\u2019t have a choice, you\u2019re born with it. <\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_80118\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushFlag2.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Dad was an alcoholic? You\u2019re gonna be an alcoholic.  Your mom was a drug addict? you\u2019re gonna be a drug addict.  You\u2019ve got bipolar disorder?  Oh, you were born with that. Take this medication. By the way, if you ever get off it, you\u2019re gonna commit suicide.  It\u2019s what all our statistics tell us,&#8221; and it seems to me that psychology and psychiatry and so-called science has been betraying my generation.  Why would we have hope?  We\u2019re told that we\u2019re born this way; we can\u2019t do anything about it.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Robbie?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  Yes?<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  You\u2019re right.  You are more right than you even know.  You have hit the nail on the head.  Your generation is being told you don\u2019t have any choice.  Not only that, your parents, they\u2019re causing the globe to get warm. They\u2019re causing global warming.  Your parents are destroying your world &#8212; and you are, too, if you\u2019re not doing the right thing.  You are exactly right.  In this country, because of freedom, you\u2019ve always had a choice. <\/p>\n<p>You can be a bum, you can choose not to work, you can choose to live on whatever you can be given, or you can make your way in life.  Your generation is being told you don\u2019t have any choice, because you don\u2019t have any free will.  You are predestined to misery and failure, because everybody around you is that &#8212; and, as such, you must turn over your life to Democrats or the government or whoever who will protect you and coddle you and walk you through this misery and this maze. <\/p>\n<p>You are so right.<\/p>\n<p>I think she is so right about this.  She\u2019s explaining why this fog of depression and pessimism has swept over the Millennial generation is because they are being told that theirs is a life of pre-destiny with no choice whatsoever, and it\u2019s all negative. <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_80134\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushLIES_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>RUSH:  Our last caller Robbie was from Sacramento, California. Robbie was right on the money.  A big part of the American dream has always been upward mobility.  But upward mobility is being mocked because it\u2019s unfair, because not everybody does it.  It\u2019s not tolerated.  It\u2019s not permitted, because not everybody can.  I tell you what, she was so right on the money that I\u2019m jealous.  It is rare that a caller&#8230; Not caller. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s rare that anybody comes up with something that I haven\u2019t thought of myself.  But, boy, did she.  Her generation&#8230; She heard me talk about this massive pessimism that has swept over Millennials and, well, people in general, but young people particularly.  The depression, this fog bank of pessimism that seems to be blanketing everybody.  And her point was we\u2019re being told we\u2019ve got no choice.  If my parents were alcoholics, I\u2019m gonna be one.  If my parents are bipolar, I\u2019m gonna be one. <\/p>\n<p>We have no free will. <\/p>\n<p>We can\u2019t make anything of ourselves. <\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re just got no choice.  There isn\u2019t any possibility to succeed.  We\u2019re hearing how rotten the country is.  We\u2019re hearing how unjust and unfair the country is.  There\u2019s no chance for us.  We keep hearing that the days of each generation doing better than its parents are over (and she\u2019s right).  People are inundated with a never-ending stream of pessimism and negativity from the Democrat Party, from the American media &#8212; and, let\u2019s face it, probably quite a few people in general.<\/p>\n<p>Because, as we all know, pessimism is easy. <\/p>\n<p>Negativism is easy. <\/p>\n<p>Upward mobility is made fun of, it\u2019s mocked, and now it\u2019s not even made possible.  Upward mobility is not even deemed possible.  And when it happens, it\u2019s unfair and unjust. There\u2019s gotta be something done about it.  The smartest kids in the class? Lower them so as not to humiliate the kids that aren\u2019t doing as well.  The left never seeks to elevate people to the highest level.  They see people who reach heights greater than the average and bring them down. <\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a reason for this.  As we have said before on this program, unlike Europe and the rest of the world, the US &#8212; if left to its own devices, if left alone. If American free market and capitalism were left alone, there would not be a permanent underclass in this country. Permanent.  There are always gonna be poor people because people are gonna make the wrong choices.  You\u2019re always gonna have people drop out of school.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re always gonna have people get pregnant at 15. You\u2019re always gonna have people get drugged up, all kinds of problems. But it isn\u2019t permanent, or hasn\u2019t been.  But the Democrat Party needs a permanent underclass, folks.  There\u2019s always been an underclass, don\u2019t misunderstand. But it\u2019s never been permanent.  You could get out of it.  You could make the right choices and get out of it.  Do the right things, and you could get out of it. <\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s Democrat Party needs a permanent underclass, and if they have to they\u2019ll create one.  That\u2019s what amnesty is all about, that\u2019s what immigration is all about: A permanent underclass of low-skilled, uneducated, low-expectation people, happy to just be here and be taken care of &#8212; and vote Democrat in gratitude.  &#8220;Gratitude.&#8221;  That\u2019s the name of the game today, and if this sounds cynical, I\u2019m sorry. It\u2019s your problem because I\u2019m just telling you.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_80135\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaWarProsperityChartLONGER.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Truth is my problem. The Democrat Party, because they want a permanent underclass, have done everything they can to make sure people that are in the underclass state there.  They want to make sure that if you\u2019re in the underclass, you\u2019re stuck there.  And of course this carries over to everybody else.  Everybody in the underclass must stay there.  You don\u2019t get out of it.  That has slopped over to everybody else, even people in the lower middle class and the middle class. <\/p>\n<p>Everybody\u2019s told, &#8220;You\u2019re stuck right where you are.  You cannot improve yourselves.  Those days are over,&#8221; and it\u2019s not fair, by the way, that some people should improve themselves while you don\u2019t, because the left thinks &#8220;fairness&#8221; equals equality of outcome.  So they convince people that they should turn their lives over to them, and they\u2019ll make it fair for \u2019em. They\u2019ll make the outcomes equal and nobody will have any more than anybody else, and nobody will be humiliated.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You won\u2019t be envious or jealous \u2019cause nobody will have any more, except celebrities.  They will.  The elites.  But that\u2019s okay because you\u2019ll never be one of those, and you know it. &#8221; All of this is relatively new.  The United States never was a country that even talked about &#8220;class,&#8221; because there was mobility throughout our culture.  People were moving into and out of various economic classes all the time. <\/p>\n<p>Rich people would lose everything. <\/p>\n<p>People that had nothing would hit it big. <\/p>\n<p>There was all kinds of flux and mobility, and people moving in and out of various levels of economic accomplishment or achievement.  Class was never taught in schools.  But now you cannot have a class that doesn\u2019t teach class warfare.  Now you can\u2019t have an election that doesn\u2019t feature class warfare.  Now we have an entire political party and political movement which is devoted to class warfare and creating resentment, pessimism, defeatism, and hatred, among the lower classes. <\/p>\n<p>People in the lower class are told that they\u2019re there because what they used to have has been stolen from them.  The people who are whatever you call it &#8212; the rich, the achieved, or whatever? They\u2019re thieves, they\u2019re cheats, they\u2019re liars. &#8220;That money used to be yours! That prosperity used to be yours,&#8221; you\u2019re told, &#8220;but they took it.&#8221;  How?  &#8220;They got tax cuts in Reagan!  Reagan gave \u2019em tax cuts and that\u2019s how they got your money.  They\u2019re a bunch of mean, selfish, greedy rich people. Your money, they have it because of tax cuts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The people that hear this and are eager for somebody other than themselves to blame, eat it all up.  &#8220;That\u2019s right, Mabel! It wasn\u2019t my fault.  I didn\u2019t do it.  The rich stole everything I had.  Reagan did it with tax cuts.  That\u2019s why we gotta always oppose tax cuts for the rich.  That\u2019s how they keep the money that they took from us.&#8221;  I ain\u2019t lying, folks.  Robbie in Sacramento was exactly right.  In school, before the multiculturalists got hold of the curriculum, Christopher Columbus used to be remembered for&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=11736\"><img id=\"eZObject_80133\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushYoungDemocrats.jpg\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Well, actually not just for discovering America, but because he refused to become a saddle maker like his father and his father before him.  It\u2019s one of the things that I was taught about Columbus. It wasn\u2019t just that he bravely set out for what everybody thought was the end of the world, the flat world. He was brave and courageous and all that, but he could have been a saddle maker. <\/p>\n<p>Today, Christopher Columbus is portrayed as a racist, sexist, bigot who introduced racism, sexism, environmental destruction, bigotry, anti-gay attitudes, disease and all that by conquering and polluting what was a pristine paradise where the Indians lived.  Columbus came and took everything they\u2019ve got, took everything they had!  Now look at what he\u2019s remembered for.  Abraham Lincoln was held up on a pedestal. <\/p>\n<p>Lincoln showed that a person could literally come from nothing and become president of the United States.  These lessons are not taught today.  Young people are taught just the opposite.  The hopes and dreams and aspirations of young people today are being stomped on in order to perpetuate the myth that the American dream is dead, that you cannot improve your lot in life.  Evil rich people (more than likely Republicans) have taken everything. <\/p>\n<p>So what we\u2019re doing now, is we\u2019re getting it back from \u2019em.  We\u2019re gonna take it from \u2019em.  We\u2019re gonna take what you used to have, even though you don\u2019t remember ever having it, \u2019cause you never did really have it, but you\u2019re told that you did.  They gonna take it from the rich, they\u2019re gonna soak it to \u2019em, and you sit out there and applaud it.  &#8220;Right on! You stick it to \u2019em. You let \u2019em find out what it\u2019s like.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>This is the kind of hatred, class warfare, and envy that is taught today.  The hopes, the dreams, the aspirations of people are suppressed, stomped on, denied, laughed at, made fun of. &#8220;We can\u2019t have young people thinking they could move upward!&#8221;  So we have to mock yuppies.  We have to mock the successful. We have to make fun of people who take life seriously.  They have to be nerds or something. <\/p>\n<p>We have to make sure that they are viewed in derision, not respect.  We have to make sure that the successful are maligned and impugned as thieves, as uncaring, selfish brutes.  &#8220;You don\u2019t want to be one of those kind of people anyway.&#8221;  Celebrities and athletes are treated so special because that\u2019s how you live your silly dreams vicariously through them.  <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=11646\">Go on Facebook <\/a>and pretend you\u2019re on the red carpet! <\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/?p=11646\"><img id=\"eZObject_80131\" class=\"aligncenter\" align=\"middle\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/RushFacebookSeeIToldYouFacebook.jpg\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Tweet and follow a celebrity and pretend that you live in that world.  Turn on E! Entertainment, TMZ, and pretend that that could be you someday.  But it never will be, because you can\u2019t be that.  Newt Gingrich the other day said, &#8220;The Republicans don\u2019t have an alternative to health care.  There not a one of them, nobody. They shouldn\u2019t be talking about defunding it. There\u2019s no alternative.&#8221;  Would somebody&#8230;?<\/p>\n<p>I want to get back to base.  Would somebody tell me where in the Constitution it says we\u2019re entitled to that?  My Constitution doesn\u2019t say anything about me being entitled to health care and certainly it doesn\u2019t say that you have to pay for it.  My understanding, when I grew up, was that if you didn\u2019t go to school, if you dropped out, if you didn\u2019t try, if you had babies, if you became an alcoholic, if you basically lived your life like a piece of debris, that your life was gonna be pretty bad.<\/p>\n<p>Because those were choices that you made that were not the best choices; they were poor.  And not just me.  Most everybody my age growing up was told that.  You make those kind of choices, and your life is gonna be really bad. Your life is gonna be really sad.  You\u2019re gonna be very disappointed.  You\u2019re not gonna amount to anything, if you make those choices.  So, don\u2019t do it.  Those simple words &#8220;don\u2019t do it,&#8221; they\u2019re made fun of, they\u2019re mocked.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Easy for you to say, Limbaugh!&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>But if you make certain choices, your life is gonna suck. By the same token, make the right choices and you\u2019ve got a chance.  But now the choices don\u2019t even exist.  Kids are being told they don\u2019t even have the choice. &#8220;So go ahead and have the babies and go ahead and do the drugs and go ahead and have the booze, and go ahead and drop out of school, because over here is food stamps and unemployment for 99 weeks, and over there\u2019s a cell phone, and over there is a flat screen.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You can watch TV all day long if you want and pretend that you\u2019re A-Rod, or whoever you want to be.&#8221;  But now the choices don\u2019t even exist in people\u2019s minds.  The sad thing is, they do.  The sad thing is, these Millennials have just as much choice as you and I did.  They have a shrinking economy they have to deal with, but if they could get their minds right and if they were educated and informed properly, they could do things for themselves that would reverse the direction this country\u2019s going. <\/p>\n<p>They could start voting for the right people, or they could at least start not voting for the wrong people.  But I would submit that kids today are virtually encouraged to make bad choices because they\u2019re gonna end up in that permanent underclass the Democrat Party needs.  Remember, the word is &#8220;permanent.&#8221;  Europe has always had one.  We never have, until the modern era of the Democrat Party.  We\u2019ve always had an underclass, but it\u2019s never been permanent until now.  But it doesn\u2019t have to be over.  <\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Let me ask you another question related to all this: Why do we give kids condoms?  Why have we spent all of these years teaching them how to use them with cucumbers and bananas or whatever?  Why have we been obsessed with giving kids condoms?  Why, in other words, have we been obsessed with encouraging a behavior that equals a bad choice?  Why?  And then when people object to it, the left said, &#8220;But it\u2019s sex, Rush, and it\u2019s kids, and you can\u2019t stop \u2019em. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;They\u2019re going to do it.  So we need to make it as safe as we can.&#8221;  Who says you can\u2019t stop it?  We never used to have this kind of illegitimacy in this country.  We never used to have 73% of the babies born without a father around.  It never happened before.  Not until you people came along.  What do you mean, &#8220;we can\u2019t stop it&#8221;?  What do you mean, &#8220;we can\u2019t teach kids who don\u2019t know anything right from wrong because they haven\u2019t been alive long enough&#8221;? <\/p>\n<p>The answer always was: &#8220;You don\u2019t have the right to determine what\u2019s right and wrong, Rush.&#8221;  Well, what about good old-fashioned morality that served us for centuries?  &#8220;It\u2019s your morality, Rush.  You can\u2019t impose yours on other people.&#8221;  So there became no wrong, and there became no right to proclaim wrong.  There was only, &#8220;Whatever choice the kid wanted to make, we are gonna facilitate it.&#8221; So the left has actually participated in young people destroying their lives. <\/p>\n<p>Why are we talking about legalizing drugs, by the way?<\/p>\n<p>BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: This Alex in Pittsburgh.  Great to have you.  Thank you for waiting.  Hi.<\/p>\n<p><img id=\"eZObject_80149\" class=\"alignright\" align=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/ObamaSam_large.jpg\"\/><BR\/>CALLER:  Hi, Rush.  Thank you for taking my call.  I wanted to talk to you a little bit about my generation, the Millennials, and kind of this defeatist attitude that seems to be almost infecting our whole generation.  I\u2019m currently 24.  I opened my own small business a year ago. But when I graduated from college, I was faced with kind of that same dilemma that a lot of people are. My generation seems to think that you get a diploma; now you\u2019re gonna get a job, which clearly isn\u2019t the purpose ofa business or anything. <\/line><\/p>\n<p>So I was kind of faced with that decision.  I had this great opportunity to open my own company, but at the same time, I was looking into all these different entitlements, \u2019cause you always hear all these things. &#8220;You can get this and you can get that.&#8221; So I actually took the time to sit down and weigh the risks between opening my own business &#8212; and obviously, you know, the chance that it fails within the first year, spending pretty much all the money I\u2019d saved from working &#8212; or going out and hunting down these entitlements and seeing what I could get. The difference was not only on the positive impact that would be lost on the community &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Now, wait just a second.  Wait, wait.  Wasn\u2019t there a third option, unless I didn\u2019t hear everything &#8212; and don\u2019t worry. We\u2019ll carry you over to the bottom-of-the-hour break, we don\u2019t make it.  Your two options were welfare or starting your own business?<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  No, I was kind of being facetious, but, I mean, not necessarily welfare. I was looking into that, because my thought was, &#8220;Okay, you have two options: You can work hard and contribute to the economy, or you can leech from the economy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  Okay, got you.<\/p>\n<p>CALLER:  So, yeah, I kind of weigh those two options, and what I found was, assuming that you get through for the food stamps and Section 8 and everything, the lifestyle that I would have been able to live compared to the lifestyle that I did live &#8212; this was a year ago &#8212; was pretty comparable. But the difference is I actually have been working and building toward something.  So, yeah, I lived a low standard of life for that year, maybe, but my hopes are that the work I put in now will pay off, and I think that kind of sentiment is just completely lost in my generation.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH:  For way too many, it is.  But it\u2019s not all their fault.  Many of them are told that they can\u2019t do anymore what you\u2019re trying! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: We\u2019ll start here in my adopted hometown, Sacramento, California.
