Rush Limbaugh: Are we just going to sit by and watch $22 trillion economy be destroyed under the guise of not losing any unnecessary life? – Media…
Citation From the March 31, 2020, edition of Premiere NetworksThe Rush Limbaugh Show
CALLER: I have to take umbrage with you calling this a Chinese virus it is a communist virus. Understand that communism is all about moving wealth out of private hands, into public control. And that social progress has advanced so far in China that these poor people dont have enough wealth to get the basic subsistence of life. They gotta go out and invent new food sources theyre eating bats, for Gods sakes. And that virus is now bringing the same social progress to America. Its descending on us faster than the headlines can keep up with it.
And Im not mad at the American left. Theyve been out there for decades, clear about what their mission is. Im mad about our side, for not recognizing this communist revolution taking place from the highest offices of government, media, and education. If were not willing to admit the enemy among us if were not willing to prosecute treason, where treason is found then we should stop complaining about it, just accept it.
RUSH LIMBAUGH (HOST): Okay, well, Ill let that stand, as I know Im being inundated with people who have that point of view. That its not the Chi-Com virus, its the communist virus, that were being overtaken, the Chinese communists are doing it.
Youre the only person I know who thinks its happening without the cooperation of the Democrat Party, however. Most people tell me they think the American left is the worldwide Communist Party now, and that they are willingly subverting this economy and destroying it, for the purposes of eliminating and wiping out capitalism.
And whether thats happening of whether that's the design or not, that is happening. This economy is being shut down. Thats why this is not sustainable. Im sorry, Im sounding like a broken record on this, but it is not sustainable.
Are we just going to sit by and watch $22 trillion thats the value, thats the sum total of the GDP, thats the U.S. economy are we just going to sit by here and watch it evaporate? Because thats what were doing, under the guise of not losing any unnecessary life meaning we want to try to save as many lives as we can.
At any rate, I appreciate the call.
