Season 3, Episode 18 - Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius, retail theft losses, NYC Marathon results, Louisiana Senator John Kennedy, NYC subway expansion, wages for healthcare workers, and more!

In this week's podcast, our quote is from the Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius on why the opinion of 10,000 men can be worthless and how that observation still holds today. We'll tell you how bad retail theft losses have gotten and how much those thefts cost law-abiding consumers each year. We'll tell you how fast the fastest male runner finished the New York City Marathon this past weekend and how many more male runners finished the race ahead of the fastest female runner, and ask what will happen if & when one of those also-ran male runners declares that he wants to identify as and run as a woman in the next marathon. We'll play a 90-second clip of an award-winning journalist explaining why claiming CO2 is a "Pollutant" is ludicrous. We'll play a 90-second clip of Louisiana Senator John Kennedy explaining why he thinks President Biden has (QUOTE): "Taken the bullet train to Chumptown." We'll ask why the federal government is paying half the cost of an $8 Billion subway expansion project in New York City that won't benefit anyone who doesn't live or work in New York City. We'll tell you about a new minimum wage for healthcare workers law in California that went into effect this year and is now costing that state billions of dollars and adding to that state's already staggering debt. We'll tell you which famous Seattle-based billionaire is moving to Florida and why. We'll tell you how many prior arrests the average homicide suspect in Washington, DC, has when they are arrested for killing someone and explain why thugs with so many prior arrests are out on the street committing more crimes instead of spending more time in prison. In a related story, this week's Taxpayer relief shot also comes to us from Washington DC, the carjacking capital of the United States, where two very young thugs pick the wrong car to try and carjack with tragic consequences.
