UNIVERSAL BASIC INCOME THAT'S
RIGHT HE WANTS THE GOVERNMENT TO
LAUGHER JOINS US ALL RIGHT ART

WHY DOESN'T BRANSON WHO IS
I THINK THAT'S WHAT HE SHOULD DO

IT ON HIS OWN ACCORD.
THAT'S MY THOUGHT.
AND IT'S A SILLY IDEA.
YOU NEVER WANT TO PAY PEOPLE NOT
TO WORK.
YOU NEVER WANT TO DO THAT PAY
WHEN THEY DO WORK UNLESS THEY
CAN'T WORK OF COURSE OR SOME
PENALIZE WORKERS TO REWARD
NONWORKERS OTHERWISE YOU'RE
GOING TO GET A LOT OF NONWORKS
AND GET GROWTH STOPPED AND GET
THE ECONOMY GOING IN THE TANK.
SO THAT'S NOT WHAT YOU WANT.
AND --

UNIVERSAL BASIC INCOME YOU
DEPARTMENT BY THE WAY PART OF
THIS DEAL IS YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO
LOOK FOR A JOB.

[LAUGHTER]
JUST DIDN'T WORK OUT BUT WHY
DOES SOMEONE AS SMART AS BRANSON
AND OTHERS CONTINUE IN YOUR MIND
TO CLING ON TO THOUGHT THAT THIS
IS THE ULTIMATE SOLUTION?
>> I THINK HE EL POOS GUILTY TO
BE HONEST WITH YOU WAY MORE
SUCCESSFUL THAN HE EVER IMAGINED
HE COULD HAVE BEEN AND NEVER
IMAGINE WHY ME WHY AM I THIS
SUCCESSFUL AND ALL OF THAT AND
FEELS GUILTY AND A LITTLE BIT
AND THAT'S SORT OF LIKE LET THEM
EAT CAKE IN FRANCE.
BUT IT'S A SAD PHENOMENAL.
TEDDY KENNEDY WASES IN BRITAIN

MAYBE THEY DO BUT THEY FEEL THIS
GUILT.

OUR PRODUCER SAID YOU HAVE A
GREAT STORY ABOUT PRESIDENT RAGE
BEGAN IN THE FOURTH OF JULY CAN
FOURTH OF JULY IS A BIG
THAT STUFF IN THE LEAD BAND
THERE WAS THE BEACH BOYS.
THAT WERE PROGRAMMED TO BE THE
THE LEAD BAND AT JULY FOURTH
THING, AND RAY WATTS WHO WAS
SECRETARY OF THE E INTERIOR
CONTROLS ALL PARKS AND STUFF
THOUGHT THAT BEACH BOYS WERE A
LITTLE TOO RADICAL AND A LITTLE
TOO ACTIVIST TO BE THERE.
SO HE INTERVENES SPECIFICALLY
AND CANCELED BEACH BOYS AND DID
NOT ALLOW THEM TO PERFORM
UNTIL --
THE PRESIDENT FROM CALIFORNIA
SAID WELL YOU KNOW I'M JUST
GOING TO HAVE TO OVERRIDE WHO I
WANT ON THIS ONE.
