Affluenza Survivor Thanks Rush

RUSH: Joe in Smyrna, Tennessee. Welcome to the EIB Network, sir. Hello.

CALLER: Hi, Rush. It’s an honor to speak to you today.

RUSH: Thank you very much.

CALLER: I owe you a huge debt of gratitude. My wife and I for many years have suffered from affluenza and it was just a terrible burden, but about six months ago we started tuning into your show and listening, and we recognized the signs and recently we’ve come to be cured of this disease, thanks to you.

RUSH: Well, that makes me happy. I can’t tell you how happy that makes me. You had affluenza?

CALLER: Yes, we did. We found ourselves hiding our assets from our friends, and telling people we didn’t have money, and things like that, and it just wasn’t true.

RUSH: Right, because you were obsessed with guilt.

CALLER: Exactly.

RUSH: Because you felt it was unfair you should have so much while poor, and women, and minorities had so little.

CALLER: Just like the spot says.

RUSH: You learned not to feel guilty, because you earned it.

CALLER: Exactly — and I still do. I’m on my way right now to go earn it some more.

RUSH: Really? Man, I hope you pull it off, and I hope you continue to earn it, and I hope you keep earning it because you’re going to need to earn more and more, if Hillary wins with taxes and so forth.

CALLER: Thank you very much, Rush.

RUSH: You’re more than welcome.
