00:00I'd like to make a unanimous request to speak for one minute, revise and extend my
00:06remarks.
00:07Without objection, the gentleman is recognized for one minute.
00:10Another week gone by and another week of the press corps leaving aside what I think is
00:13the greatest long-term issue facing our country, and that is the breakdown of the family.
00:19Beginning in the 1960s, with the most recent Marxists and the feminists like Kate Millay,
00:25later on a communist by the name of Angela Davis, later on Black Lives Matter, our country
00:30keeps marching towards the end of the nuclear family.
00:35And programs ever since that time are clearly designed in this in mind.
00:39The Great Society programs, Section 42 housing tax credits, giving better housing to people
00:46who are not married than people who are, healthcare, earned income tax credit, $7,000 a year, TANF
00:54cash, special programs for disabled kids only eligible for the poor people, I'm sorry
01:03for the single parent people, it is time for the press to look at these programs, frequently
01:09it is costing over 20, over $25,000 for young couples to get married rather than to not
01:16keep both parents in the house.
01:18I ask the press corps to wake up and make this an issue in this year's presidential
01:24campaign.
