from<00:00:34.360> a<00:00:34.480> poor<00:00:34.719> background<00:00:35.280> and<00:00:35.399> it's<00:00:35.559> ordinary
from a poor background and it's ordinary
families<00:00:36.360> like<00:00:36.600> my<00:00:36.879> family<00:00:37.399> like<00:00:37.520> the<00:00:37.640> kids<00:00:37.840> I
families like my family like the kids I
grew<00:00:38.200> up<00:00:38.360> with<00:00:38.600> whose<00:00:38.920> kids<00:00:39.160> are<00:00:39.320> going<00:00:39.440> to<00:00:39.559> be

in<00:00:39.840> poverty<00:00:40.440> it's<00:00:40.960> difficult<00:00:41.440> but<00:00:41.680> it<00:00:41.800> is
in poverty it's difficult but it is
necessary<00:00:43.280> sometimes<00:00:43.800> we<00:00:43.960> have<00:00:44.079> to<00:00:44.280> do<00:00:44.520> things
not because they're easy but because
they<00:00:47.719> are<00:00:48.199> hard<00:00:48.879> that<00:00:49.000> is<00:00:49.160> what<00:00:49.360> makes<00:00:49.920> a<00:00:50.079> rich
they are hard that is what makes a rich
country<00:00:50.879> rich<00:00:51.199> and<00:00:51.320> that<00:00:51.440> is<00:00:51.559> what<00:00:51.760> protects
lived in poverty did they say let's not
change<00:00:57.280> it<00:00:57.440> because<00:00:57.640> it's<00:00:57.800> hard<00:00:58.280> no<00:00:58.559> they
they demanded Health Care education
housing<00:01:03.519> food<00:01:03.840> and<00:01:03.960> they<00:01:04.119> got<00:01:04.320> it<00:01:04.799> they<00:01:05.000> got<00:01:05.159> it
housing food and they got it they got it
that's<00:01:05.840> why<00:01:06.040> my<00:01:06.280> parents<00:01:06.840> could<00:01:07.000> live<00:01:07.400> a<00:01:07.560> good
that's why my parents could live a good
quality<00:01:08.240> life<00:01:08.799> they<00:01:09.000> got<00:01:09.280> those<00:01:09.600> things<00:01:10.080> they
quality life they got those things they
got<00:01:10.439> those<00:01:10.640> things<00:01:10.880> and<00:01:11.000> they<00:01:11.119> were<00:01:11.360> aware
got those things and they were aware
that<00:01:12.200> in<00:01:12.320> order<00:01:12.520> to<00:01:12.720> do<00:01:12.960> that<00:01:13.320> you<00:01:13.520> could<00:01:13.720> not
that in order to do that you could not
allow<00:01:14.439> the<00:01:14.600> super<00:01:14.960> rich<00:01:15.280> who<00:01:15.400> have<00:01:15.520> been
allow the super rich who have been
living<00:01:15.960> lives<00:01:16.119> of<00:01:16.280> luxury<00:01:16.640> for<00:01:16.759> hundreds<00:01:17.080> and
I know it's difficult and I know I'm
probably<00:01:23.960> going<00:01:24.040> to<00:01:24.159> lose<00:01:24.479> I<00:01:24.600> know<00:01:24.799> that<00:01:24.920> I
probably going to lose I know that I
know<00:01:25.159> I'm<00:01:25.320> probably<00:01:25.520> going<00:01:25.600> to<00:01:25.720> lose<00:01:26.119> and<00:01:26.240> that
know I'm probably going to lose and that
means<00:01:26.560> our<00:01:26.720> viewers<00:01:27.000> will<00:01:27.119> be<00:01:27.240> poor<00:01:27.600> but<00:01:27.720> I<00:01:27.840> do
means our viewers will be poor but I do
it<00:01:28.119> anyway<00:01:28.640> because<00:01:28.920> I<00:01:29.079> do<00:01:29.280> not<00:01:29.479> want<00:01:29.759> this
it anyway because I do not want this
this<00:01:30.079> country<00:01:30.320> that<00:01:30.439> I<00:01:30.560> grew<00:01:30.759> up<00:01:30.920> in<00:01:31.240> to<00:01:31.400> fall
