CALLER: Before when you were reading Trump when he was encouraging people, you know, to pursue their interests, follow your dreams, do what interests you.<\/p>\nRUSH: Back to the phones, Denville, New Jersey. This is Alan. Thank you for waiting, and welcome to the EIB Network. Hi.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Hi, Rush. How are you?<\/p>\n
RUSH: Very fine. Thank you.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Before when you were reading Trump when he was encouraging people, you know, to pursue their interests, follow your dreams, do what interests you.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Right.<\/p>\n
CALLER: It\u2019s so selfish. Now it\u2019s very selfish. It\u2019s not proper to do. It made me recall years back under Obama\u2019s presidency when there\u2019s high unemployment, we were told… I don\u2019t remember which person had said it. It might have been Pelosi. I\u2019m not sure. But how it\u2019s really good to be unemployed because people now have time to pursue their interests and the things they really like and it\u2019s really good. It just made me think of that, and it just shot right back to my mind.<\/p>\n
RUSH: What a great memory. What a great recall that is! You\u2019re exactly right. Pelosi said that. It was Pelosi. She said something else. She said two things. In the Obama administration: They had a name for people losing their jobs rapidly. It was called “funemployment.” Do you remember this?<\/p>\n
CALLER: Yes. (groans)<\/p>\n

RUSH: Pelosi and the Democrats said, “It\u2019s a great opportunity to get back together with family, to reconnect with people you haven\u2019t seen in a while. It\u2019s a wonderful opportunity. You now have time to explore things that you haven\u2019t had time for; it\u2019s a great thing. With unemployment insurance, it\u2019s a golden opportunity.” You\u2019re right, and then the next thing they said was (and it was specifically Pelosi), “Now you don\u2019t have to do that job that you\u2019ve hated all along. If you want to go out and paint watercolors in Golden Gate Park and try to sell \u2019em down in the Tenderloin, you can do it. You no longer have to be a prisoner do a job that you don\u2019t like.” You\u2019re exactly right about that. What a great recall.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Yeah.<\/p>\n
RUSH: It was all a way to mitigate the negative aspects of losing your gig.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Right. Right. Yep. It\u2019s funny how things change. The perspective changes; it depends on who\u2019s in office.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Right. Exactly. So now somebody at TheHill.com is saying it\u2019s big mistake to follow your passions. Don\u2019t do it! It\u2019s selfish. When planning a career, plan a career of service. Plan a career of giving back to others. No, this actually appeared today, folks. Following your passion is a very selfish thing to do, according to a liberal sociologist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
