Limbaugh Caller Tells Rush: Glenn Beck’s Book ‘Broke’ Woke Me Up

Nov. 30, 2012 7:42am Jonathon M. Seidl

If you were listening to Rush Limbaugh’s radio show on Thursday, you might have noticed an advertisement of sorts for Glenn Beck’s book “Broke.” Not a paid advertisement, that is, but rather the best kind: an honest testimonial.

That’s because a caller by the name of Rick from Calif. appeared on the show and admitted that only now, at the age of 45, he’s realizing that all those government programs, hand outs, and promises aren’t free.

“I’ve finally woken up to the fact that money isn’t free,” he admitted. After a slightly flabbergasted Limbaugh — flabbergasted that it took so long for Rick to realize this — engaged him in an explanation, Rick went on to say what led to the epiphany.

“This might be a little bad,” Rick said sheepishly (realizing he was about to plug another radio host’s book on Limbaugh’s show), “it actually has to do with a book I read by Glenn Beck. The book he wrote, ‘Broke,’ was such an eye-opening thing.”

He added that before the book, he had never understood where the money for grants, student loans and the like came from.

“I never really associated it with people’s taxes and coming out of the general fund or anything. You just think, ‘Oh yeah, oh, government money. Okay, the government has a surplus or something. Or there’s just extra money they’ve set aside.’”

“I just woke up. And I should have listened to my dad a long time ago,” he later admitted.

You can listen to the intriguing call below via Daily Rushbo:

And if you want to see what, exactly, woke Rick up, you can buy “Broke” for yourself or even a friend here.

I can relate to this guy my own father was trying to tell me my whole life. The problem was my dad’s approach God bless him. I have to admit I was totally turned off on any thing political because my dad would get so angry. Communist was the worst name you could be called in my house. I just turned 40 and my dad would be 87 if alive. Before he died I seen the desperation in his eyes when he told me I had to wake up and prepare the world was getting ready to change as I new it this was in 2006. He said I had to have the Lord in my life and watch and listen the New World Order was getting ready to be implemented. It took Obama for me to see so I have been reading The New American which he read as long as I can remember. Now I AM my dad haha And I have to admit Glenn Beck has played a major role in my enlightenment process. Better late than never in my book I am playing serious catch up but I do take it very serious thanks dad! More power to this gentlemen it’s spreading across America and again better late than NEVER!

  Please hurry. Glenn Beck is political baby food. But DANGEROUS baby food. His biased incomplete information (whether book, radio or TV) is warped to demonize the leftist democrat party, while COVERING for the leftist republican party. The trick is to evolve BEYOND Glenn Beck and his republican party (he will claim to NOT be a republican, but is), before soaking in too much of his slanted “history.” Infowars is a great example of political meat and potatoes and has nothing to do with Beck’s republican agenda. Also Gerald Celente, Tom Woods, a little Adam Kokesh… and of course, Ron Paul.

  Your pops had the right idea. Wrong group. There’s a few things you might not aware of.
  I’ll suggest you read the ‘Education Day’ legislation, Noahide laws concerning Jesus, and look into the Sanhedrin (I cannot effing believe I’m actually typing this word in seriousness), and the Balfour act (just for perspective). You’re being lied to by those you protect so dearly. Rev. 12:13-17 should be taken consideration. Also consider that you might have the wrong idea about what the dragon will be or where it will come from.

  Glenn Beck’s books are 500 pages of fluff. He is unoriginal and simply repackages the theories of Alex Jones into the false dichotomy of “Republican good, Democrat bad,” while claiming he has never heard of him. If you’re in any industry, you know ALL of your competitors. Ignoring somebody is only the worst insult, which is why Beck thinks he is so clever as his “star dust” turns a little stale…

  I have read 4 of Glenn’s books. His view on the parties is,
  
  1. Give just as much trust to one party as another. In our case, none.
  
  2.a. Trumpet where they have succeeded in executing the will of the people, and criticize honestly and openly where they do not do so.
  
  b. He does not “cover for leftist republicans”…..he EXPOSES them.
  
  Is it so hard to believe that, maybe, just maybe, there are, I dunno, one maybe two republicans who DO NOT have their head inside their digestive system? Just saying. Anything’s possible.
  
  c. Like I said previously, give credit where credit is due, and discredit where it’s due, which is packaged and sent out in huge parcels to each and every member of the political class in Glenn’s book.
  
  3. If you were intellectually honest, you would not come away from reading a Glenn Beck book with the impression “all republicans good, all democrats bad”
  
  That’s Ann Coulter who does that. NOT Glenn.

Disappointed somewhat in the caller, as he is a year older than me and was raised to know a little better. However, better late than never.

Everybody over the age of 40 should know better. Our formative years were the mid 1970′s thru mid 1980′s – never a more dramatic 10 year change in American attitudes and worker productivity – ever. Then, as suddenly as the 80′s came and left, it all went horribly wrong almost over nite.

Kids have really no chance now, and thus is the future of this country.

  Interesting. I am 44. When I was younger I never thought much about it. I just worked and knew they took taxes out but life was good. I mean I worked alot and paid my way through college. I never took handouts but never gave it a thought as to where wellfare people got their money. It was a prosperous time. Our generation really never lived through real tough times so there was no reason to be alarmed or think this “crazy” stuff. Life would always be like this, right? I mean things like the Great Depression were what you learned in boring history class while watching some black and white films? Who had time for that? We were too busy watching the glitz and glamour of the **** bands and living carefree. It wasn’t until I started a business in late 20′s that I started to get a basic understanding of how it works and even then my grasp on it was limited. When I had to start writing checks to the government instead of them taking it out of my check before I got paid. You see, many people are conditioned by that because they think of their pay in terms of their take-home. I don’t think taxes should be taken out of anyone’s check. I think everyone should have to sit down monthly to pay their tax bill. THEN you would have an awakening and a revolution. I believe the government knows that and that’s why they do it this way. We have been conditioned.

  ——–
  They will never do it because then not even the working poor would vote democrat.
  I am 33 years old. I have to small boys ages 5 and 3. I grew up on welfare but my situation is a bit different then you might expect. I don’t have the room to give you my entire testimony here but I am the oldest of 4 but my mother was not loose or a crack head she we were just abused by my step father so she had to go it alone.
  She was a godly woman who knew were the money came from and taught us about work and how money works. I may have been fed off the government but grew up knowing it was not our money nor was it “free”. We knew others were paying for what we had and we were grateful. She raised us to vote republican and we knew why.
  Fast forward a bit and my bride and I come into hard times and I had to get food stamps. That was a kick in the gut for me but my family was fed. We only stayed on them for 2 months while I went to trucking school but I can’t tell you how bad I felt knowing that we were eating some one’s labor that was taken at the point of the governments gun. God help those who don’t know this….

There is a cure for this
But the Politicians in Washington DC
will never do what needs to be done.
Cut Spending on a Large Scale
Whole Dept’s of Government.
not just scale back or send the money to the States.
I mean GONE (You’re Fired)
Dept of Education First to GO
Followed Closely by Dept of Homeland Security.
By the Way ALL Czars are included FIRST.
An to be Perfectly Clear I’m not Talking about
just the heads of these Dept’s I mean the Whole Damn Dept.
you can’t work for the Dept.of Homeland Security if there is NO such
Dept of the Government.
The Dept of Energy could be next since it’s a Joke anyway.
Same with Dept of Commerce.
I could go on but just insert your own favorite Dept.to Eliminate.
Then start Cutting the Budgets of the Rest of Government.
I think 10% the first year, then 7-8% the second,5% the third.
until you have cut ALL the Fat Off.
An YES this includes Dept of Defense You will Never convince Me
That there is no FAT in the Defense Budget !
It’s just that the first thing they cut is Soldier’s Pay an Veteran’s benefits.
NO start with the General’s Golf Courses, Officers Clubs,
Theres plenty You can Cut for Defense without Harming our Millitary.
I could CUT the Budget by 10% easily without even breaking a Sweat.
It’s what We do at Home if you can’t Afford it. You DO WITHOUT
One last thing when Your Broke You Don’t Keep giving Money to
Your Friends or even Stupider Your Enemies.
So ALL Foreign Aid Stops Yesterday.

Ricks story is a sad story indeed a middle aged man didn’t realize that there’s nothing free in this life. It took that long before he became aware of that simple fact. It just goes to show how deep seeded the problem is when progressives are allowed to hold positions in government and control our schools.

  Millions of people do not know that the government doesn’t produce money, that they take it from working Americans. Because the schools are progressive. If they stopped deducting taxes automatically from paychecks and people had to write a check to the government every pay period, THEN maybe they would realize it.

  I’ll raise my hand and say I didn’t know that our Department of Treasury prints our money. I thought money was printed and lent to us on interest by the privately owned and operated Federal Reserve. I thought the US Treasury is simply responsible for providing the infrastructure (buildings and manpower), ensuring the security of said infrastructure, enforcing currency law violations by citizens, and supplying and operating the printing presses at the appointment of private banks in the Federal Reserve system. I can’t believe I thought it was the Federal Reserve that actually decides what gets printed and what doesn’t. Shows you what I know. It’s a revelation to me that a department overseen by elected representatives is printing our cash, what a relief! All this time I’ve worried about the threat of a private institution being in charge of printing our currency with no oversight! WHEW! Dodged a bullet there.
  
  Thanks for enlightening me VAMAN!
  
  Now the next big questions:
  
  Who’s going to correct all of those bad currency bills floating around that say in big bold letters “FEDERAL RESERVE NOTE” at the top of them and replace it with the correct description of “NOTE OF THE US TREASURY” like they used to pre 1913?

His awakening happened at 45? That’s beyond scary. That’s just another example of an individual who doesn’t read or has a closed mind.

I’ve haven’t seen 70 for a while and I’m really sorry for my kids and grand kids. When over 50% of democrats prefer a socialistic form of government , you know this country is in very deep trouble. Over the years I have watched the dumbing down of this country. As a matter of course, I will give a cashier the odd change towards my purchase along with the appropriate amount of cash after he or she has already rung up my purchase. They look at the money, they see that it doesn’t co-relate with what their cash register reads and they become completely confused. They cant do common math. And it doesn’t matter their age !! Whether they be kids out of high school or adults at a part time job. It doesn’t matter.

Our recent election — even if it was “stolen” — I feel just cements our fate.

We had all better turn to Our Lord and quickly.

  I was at a McDonald’s recently and an older woman, maybe 75, was working the register. She rang up my purchase, gave me the total and I gave her a $10 bill to pay for it. She not only knew what the change would be before the register told her, she counted back the change to me. When was the last time that happened to anyone? Does anyone know how to count change back? I told I wanted to marry her.
  
  This never happens anymore. You get your change back in a lump. They just put it in your hand without counting it. If you count it back then you can’t screw up giving back the right change. I wish this was taught by the schools or the employers or even the parents. By someone. It’s not hard to do.

  Here is a piece of open-mindedness:
  
  The unassailable logic and reason, from some of the best minds in history, on the subject of socialism, its means, ends, history, MORALS( yes, morals) and economic validity in the real world of human action:
  
  DESTRUCTION.
  
  Am I open minded. Nope. Why? Because its a FACT that socialism doesnt work economically( your like, but, but, thats not a fact. READ something intelligent and discover, or just follow ANY socialist countries history), and its premise is based on the worship of ‘society’ as God, and the altruist-collectivist notion that man is NOT an end unto himself, and must sacrifice his life for lesser values, willingly( or forcefully if not, since the government will shove it down your throat).
  
  Open minded? Is that a VIRTUE, when all logic and reason prove something?
  
  I am open-minded that GRAVITY doesnt exist?
  
  SOCIALSM is SLAVERY and economic suicide. There is NO doubt. Its conclusive.
  
  Obamacommy can spin it and cover this pile of dung with his slave reparations and his rhetoric that the ‘rich’ took it from the poor—-but it DOESNT make it true.
  
  In fact, its a pack of lies.
  
  Open mindedness. How gauche. How foolish.

  @APROUDVETERAN Thank you for your service. You have a few years on me,but I too have seen the dumb-ing down of American kids by our schools. My son would come home from school and first thing I would do was go over his school work for the day. Math I had in the 4th grade he was just getting in 7th grade,that was my wake up call. From then on when he got home I started a daily home work class. Back then he hated that he would have more school each day,in his eyes I was nuts! Now He Thanks me! IF any of you can HOME SCHOOL do it for your kids,my Son and his Wife do and now both thank me!

  @MaryBethElizabeth, I hate to burst your bubble, but it is you who has a closed mind. Not one of your many, many, many comments that you have posted, have ever been open minded. You bash anyone who does not think on the same level as you and have the attitude that you are right and everyone is wrong. Instead of coming here to read, learn and debate on a posted article, you instead choose to agitate those who do not fit your mindset. You are nothing but an agitator who gets a thrill up their leg by seeking negatives comments or attention from your posted nonsense. If you hate Glenn Beck so much then why do you even bother coming here in the first place? It is so you can agitate and get a reaction, nothing more and is a sad life to live when you have to seek attention from others who do not agree with you. Someday when your world comes crashing down around you, it will only be then will you realize that Glenn Beck and the many people who comment on The Blaze were more right than wrong and it will be you who will suffer the consequence of your way of thinking. You will become your own worst enemy and you will have no one to blame but your own self, so stick that in your pipe and smoke it.

SLimbaugh (Rusty Limbaugh died with his caller abortions and drug inspired weight loss) conflates and confuses capitalism with conservatism as he panders to his blissfully ignorant market. His Chinese capitalist masters have bought him off.

Beck leans too much to the entertainment side too.

  HuffMan – As previously posted, “…you can’t fix stupid, but you can educate the naive.”
  You are just naive…

How does a government make money? It is not a business.

It takes it by threat of force, through the tax laws, which carry stiff penalties.

We as a country will not survive this type of stupidity.

Used to be that some would come to their senses of how things work by their mid-20s, then late-20s, then 30s, and as evidenced here mid-40s.
I thank my GOD, that I was born to my parents and learned these facts while in my teens.

Did you hear who had taught him this lesson… the politicians and government…
And they wonder what we speak of when they are told that they drink the Kool-Aid and are sheeple.

I don’t even think that they even know what the term sheeple really means.

  @Dad…that is just the point. people in the current two youngest generations have had parents and the state fulfill their every whim and then all of a sudden dad passes away or the state finally cuts them off and an epiphany happens when they finally have to fend for themselves. Then they wonder all of a sudden why so much money is being taken away by the Govt!

  Of course, according to Glenn / Rush / ETC…don’t see the light TOO much. Sure, you’re supposed to be cheesed off but not so much that you can’t swallow your pride to vote for a RINO, collectivist. And certainly, any talk about self determination, secession or revolution is just lunacy. We romance about the DOI but we surely don’t really mean it anymore. I mean if we actually embraced the DOI again then Glenn wouldn’t have the gravy train to push books through for a while. Rush’s radio broadcast would probably come down for a while. While freedom is important, it isn’t more important than revenue streams. Now, read the books and huff and puff after Rush gets you worked up but ABOVE ALL ELSE, don’t do anything about it. That would be “crazy”.

This shows just how stupid people are. This guy is 45 and had to read a book to find out that government money comes from us citizen taxpayers. Those are the people that voted for Obama. At least he is awake not but unfortunately it is too late.

  “This shows just how stupid people are.”
  For starters, I’m not knocking you and agree with your overall comment.
  I would say naive would be a better term. Stupid can be a psychological imbalance.
  And we know that you can’t fix stupid, but you can educate the naive.

  A proud product of our illustrious public school system. God forbid they teach our kids critical thinking.

Broke? I already knew that. I thought this was for the factional “Agenda 21″.

  Money trees? No, but Bernanke has a computer and a printing press that can run 24/7.

  Hey Denny,
  
  With all the “green” he’s been printing, dollars will soon have the same value as leaves.

Better late than never I guess. Most people don’t realize this because they have been indoctrinated since the 1st grade on up by our corrupt school systems and if they aren’t totally lost by the 12th grade, college finishes them off with a totally progressive platform. Gimme…gimme…gimme

  Liberals were willing to go slow. They began taking over the education system 40 years ago, now you have the indoctrinated doing the indoctrinating. You’ll never take back the country till you first take back the education system!
