IE Business Daily Business news for the Inland Empire.
Tune in to The Main Event this Saturday morning at 9:30 on AM 590 with host Ed Hoffman as he discusses national, regional and local current events, as well as trends in the local real estate market with unique, witty and irreverent flair.
Ed covers a lot of ground this week discussing world poverty and the impossibility of America to save the world through immigration, the effectiveness of teaching the impoverished people how to care for themselves, the high cost of immigration and how President Barack Obama has damaged this country.
Ed opens his show with a clip from the movie “Talladega Nights” in which Will Ferrell delivers a ridiculous grace, followed by a clip of Nancy Pelosi reminding us that Baby Jesus was a refugee, and likens the droves of illegal minors as such. Ed responds with another clip from the same movie about Baby Jesus.
Roy Beck, a former journalist and public policy analyst makes a compelling point that Ed agrees with regarding immigration on a global, humanitarian perspective. Tune in to hear how many people in the world live desperately poor, earning less than $2 a day and the mathematical impossibility that America can save them all through immigration. Ed shares Beck’s view that there aren’t nearly enough resources in America to support the massive influx of immigrants, and that the most effective and humanitarian way to help those in impoverished countries is to help them where they live.
Ed expresses his disagreement about simply handing people what they need, which doesn’t solve the underlying issue, all it accomplishes is cripple those individuals, such as allowing illegal minors access to our country. Tune in to hear how much each illegal child is costing taxpayers and how they’re being allowed to travel on commercial airlines without valid forms of identification.
Ed scrutinizes Obama’s recent visit to California, his repetitive talking points about the middle class, and his delusion that the unemployment rate is at its lowest point and job creation at the highest. Listeners will be outraged to discover just how much Obama has increased our personal income and capital gain taxes.
Catch Ed Hoffman, host of The Main Event, on air this Saturday at 9:30 a.m. with encore presentations at 9 p.m., and Sunday at 4 p.m.
