In his editorial New Rule, Bill Maher discusses the Sunk Cost Fallacy - the idea that the more money, time or effort one invests in a cause, the less likely they are to give up on it.

That palm dick joke was fucking hilarious!
geezusispan Uhhh...yes really.
+RebelThoughts82 It totally gobsmacked Chris Matthews.
Chris Matthews sure thought so!
+geezusispan Humor is an indication of intelligence, or to put it another way, intelligent people tend to have a better sense of humor and are funnier than those who are less intelligent...which doesn't speak well of your grim and dour attitude. Don't believe me? Here, this is from Psychology Today:
www.psychologytoday.com/sites/default/files/attachments/95822/humor-predicts-mating-success.pdf
Or from Open Colleges:
www.opencolleges.edu.au/informed/features/intelligence-humour-are-smart-people-funnier/
And there are plenty of other articles supporting the thesis that humor indicates intelligence.
The fact that you didn't seem to "get" or "appreciate" the palm dick joke, which was just a funny way of saying that those who are single tend to masturbate more than those who are married (which isn't really true, but that's beside the point) and by virtue of the fact that your dick is in your palm, a palm reader would likely take that to mean that you're single. Not the funniest joke made in the history of the human race, but a chuckler nonetheless.
Maybe if you were a little smarter and open-minded, you would have been humored. That fart joke, BTW, is pretty funny.
Here's one I saw in the New Yorker magazine: It was a one frame cartoon. In it, there's an older woman, a bit heavy set, wearing a drab coat and a scarf over her hair, tossing out some bread crumbs to a couple of pigeons who are standing near the bread crumbs. One pigeon is looking at the other pigeon, the other pigeon is looking at the crumbs. The caption reads: "Terrible presentation."
Why is that funny, you ask? Because people who are "foodies" or who do a fair amount of fine dining, consider the presentation of the food to count almost if not as much as the actual taste of the food. It's a sign of a sophisticated palate, which often if not nearly always is a reflection of a person of sophistication. Pigeons are not considered "sophisticated." The "punch" of joke is the realization that these two pigeons ARE sophisticated, which is completely contrary to how we would normally perceive them to be.
Laughter, the actual ""hah!" or "hah-hah-hah!" sound that we make is said to be the physicalization of the "shock of recognition," in this case the "shock" of recognizing that these two pigeons are sophisticated enough to consider not just the food itself, but its presentation.
So wise up, geezusispan. Maybe you'll start to see the humor and absurdity that exists in nearly every dimension in life more so than you do currently.
Otherwise, my sense is that you'd be a perfect candidate for the job of mortician.
+geezusispan I'm not sure an eight year old would get the Palm Reader deducing that a man is single because his dick is in his palm joke. A 12 year old, probably.
Yes humor, like beauty and like all subjective experiences, are in the eye of the beholder. Some of us just happen to have a broader range than others. I can laugh uproariously at The Three Stooges as easily as I could Stephen Colbert when he was playing the willfully ignorant conservative blowhard, which was subtle to the point that a number of people - mainly conservatives - took what he said at face value, i.e., literally. But it's not too surprising that it was conservatives who thought Colbert was an actual conservative. Studies have shown that people who are liberal tend to be smarter and better educated.
Were you humored by the dry, wry humor of the cartoon I saw in the New Yorker? Probably not. The tone of your writing feels so...tepid. So "meh."
That was fantastic Bill. Every word of it true.
+randomflashbacks You enjoy that.
+4tech69 The Fed. reserve, Government debt ,private bank bond issuance is a ponzi scheme on a global scale .Sorry but Bill is blowing sunshine out his ass if he thinks America's wealth is not based on it's currency of reserve dominance.
+4tech69 It's as if you don't know what the labor participation rate is... Or anything deeper about our unemployment problem. Notice from 1980 to 1989, labor participation goes up. As soon as we start spending egregious amounts of money, above tax revenue.... guess what happens! Guess what haaaappppeennnss.... gov't mal-investment kills the private sector. Thus, people drop out of the labor force because they can't find jobs. And it's not as ifffff the baby boomer generation is retiring early.... research.stlouisfed.org/fred2/series/CIVPART
+DJjakedrake I'm referring to everything post 2:50 nothing else. Thanks.

WoW this might be one of the best ones for sure, Bill. This was Great, seriously.

OK and why are you telling me ? (Werido)
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
@@AChannelFrom2006 then why watch?
I wish I could explain things as clearly as you do you make it so easy to understand and hilarious at the same time
So true, Preach Bill Maher! lol
Bill was excellent as always.
"Millions of dollars out of gullible people with the promise of a better life"... New York is cracking down on politicians???
The dick Cheney joke floored me .....bill maher is a king
It's not just money... It's also time (bad relationships), emotion (claiming a team/country is the best in the world when it really isn't), even identity (religion/culture/nationality) that people keep putting in the collander, hoping it'll fill up...
This piece is my favorite of all the stuff I have seen for Bill Maher. Very well and smartly tailored.
I don't even know how somebody could dislike this video. Everything he said was 100 % true
Republicans.
would love to make this same video, but with all the bullshit liberal lunatic predictions about a trump presidency. LMAO
@@AroundSun And yet somehow they are all coming true...
@@mondoshredder5783 it must suck being you
Trickle down economics...might as well re-introduce absolute monarchy.
So true!
Super funny 5 minutes, brilliant stuff..
One of those rare shows where the writing has gotten better! Hysterical!
Sunk Cost Fallacy... You basically just explaned how Scientology works.
How every religion works. "If this isn't true, I mutilated my son's genitals for nought! It must be true!"
So true
Venom NBK All cults work that way. The GOP is definately one.

I once worked for a small print shop where they insisted we use this automated hole punching machine they'd bought, even though it regularly jammed and mutilated the paper fed through it, and despite us having more reliable methods, just to justify the money they'd spent on it. But in their defense, they were complete idiots.
Ding ding ding! We have a winner!!
Amazing segment, Bill. Great work.
SO TRUE!!!
Bill was awesome in this video.
How timely ...even today. Right on Bill! xo
Comparing psychics to religion. Priceless...

this segment was brilliant
I'm Canadian and I find American debates hilarious
One of his best and still very up to date! (Sept-03- 2018)
This was great!!!! This is what Bill used to do!!!! Oh, wait.... it's 8 years old. Those were the days, eh?
Sunk cost fallacy...ok now that explains why Americans love apple products
+kanishq ruhil Nailed it.
+kanishq ruhil Not all of us, but the uneducated iSheep for sure.
+Leuel48Fan
Well, the studies show that the typical Apple user is more educated and has more buying power than the typical Android/PC user. But you're not really about the facts, are you? You're more interested in obnoxiously trying to affirm your own choice in an operating system by putting forth an argument that isn't even true.
All you've done is confirm the results of the studies.
+TheMasterCylinder Proof or GTFO. Most iPhone users in my experience are the ones that find Android UI "too difficult".
+TheMasterCylinder Have you read the paper it links?
iPhone usage shares are positively correlated with level of education and population density at the state-level. The relationship also held across median income as well, **however the high correlation in median income and education level resulted in redundancy of this particular variable.**
So is it income or intelligence? I'm willing to bet it's the former.
beautiful, the most impressed i think i have ever been with mahers humor and perspective
Lol - "What does it matter how I pray so long as my prayers are answered?"
- Sitting Bull
Your right!
In know this is several years ago, but truth doesn't get old. And Bill Maher is the funniest and most astute american alive.
talk about saying what Im thinking! you go Bill dude
One of your best in a while. Goes to show how disconnected they are from reality.
Facts! You gotta love 'em.
Trickle down economics, among other things, was the stupid assumption that those of the wealthy would simply create more jobs for others, so others could rise to the top also, blah, blah, blah..........Point is, they didn't take into account the purely human trait of greed, that they would accumulate wealth, not embark on some business venture that may or may not turn out to be a money making venture..........so, what do you do?, You keep what you have & "screw the rest of em'"...It's just human nature.
+Ricardo Ellison Thats the point,rich people dont inovate,the ones who inovate are the people still trying to get rich who also have some money to invest.
Samir Andrade
Some, some of the wealthy innovate, depends on your personality....Innovation is HIGHLY, expensive & most will not attempt it...for fear of losing money...frankly, that's not how you gain money, get ahead, making more....Once an individual reaches a particular point, they sometimes get tired of "another" Ferrari, & turn outward, eventually wanting to bring others, strangers, into a better life.
Unfortunately, some individuals won't "settle" for a $200K Ferrari, they keep going, buying more rare, more expensive things, bigger houses, more houses, airplanes, helicopters,..but there is no correlation between acquisitions & happiness ...so, they turn to different endeavours.
Ricardo Ellison True,most people who make a lot of money have very distinc personalities especially the ones that got there in recent decades,I would say that the "I have enough money so I will dont need to do anything at all" is present mostly on families who have a long history of being rich since when someone becomes a millionaire themselves there was some drive there that does not disapear overnight (unless the person just got lucky with lotery or something)
Samir Andrade Great points all...the so called Silver-spoon effect...myself?, I'd love to employ others, cut a paycheck for a handful of people...
+Ricardo Ellison 'Trickle Down Economics' is where the well off piss on those below them. Then blame them for being 'stupid' and 'lazy' while demanding they work for wages below the poverty line and for longer hours or they are quite happy to sack them and import illegal workers while screaming to the press about 'immigrants' wrecking the country etc
That's the world we live in now. As soon as you can get ahead of someone else we shit on them.
beautiful beatdown, Bill!!. you're always good, but this one was even better!
Wow, this was one of his best
The Sunk Cost Fallacy, that's how video game pre-ordering works! DON'T PRE ORDER
Love love love... You are the best Bill
Love yu, Bill!
Well done, Bill!!!
Thanks Bill,
You've solved why women stay in bad relationships so long, why I keep throwing my cash into my 15 year old car,
and why conservatives stay with the GOP in spite of their lies to them. #SunkCostFallacy
it's too bad that he's as fallacious as anyone else. This entire world is stunningly full of shit. Do some reading on informal fallacies, and then go and watch some of Bill's more recent content, tell me how many you count. Personally, I filled up a 200 page hilroy notebook in about a week.
They don't have crystal balls. LOL
Spot On!
Wasn't expecting that sudden appearance of a bag of fortune cookies, Bill xD
Chris Matthews is Bill Maher's Ed McMahon.
Bigwave2003 Lololzzz..😂😂 Very insightful!👈👈
I love the way he laughs.
The dick joke was hilarious!

Good question!

2:12 Could you please send info regarding this vital concept to Mr E. Woodward and Mr L. Van Gaal, Matt Busby Way, Manchester UK, please, Bill? Especially during EPL tranfer windows. Much appreciated :)
Maher on fire
Bill you are HUMOR, like JIMI HENDRIX WAS MUSIC thank you for all the laughter it makes a crazy world look funny, and some of us feel more sane....
Wow, amazing show today Bill.
Chris Mathew's reaction was priceless.
Damn that was a good one
We are such gullible country when it comes to religious interference in politics.
I like Bill because he's a rich celebrity with democratic values even tho he'd obviously have a much fatter bank account if he were Republican. He's just a guy who wants justice and fairness for everybody, doesn't think he should be treated any better because of his celebrity or money, and wants the rest of society to act in the same sensible way.
+Tman Looks like someone swallowed the whole barrel of Kool-Aid. There are any number of cults looking for someone just like you...
+william hutton you would know
Brett Perry
Great response! It's like a five year old got together with a four year old and pitched their very best material. You're *totally* not a mental midget. Does sarcasm play over text well?
Damn, how do you make putting people down over the internet so easy?
Spot on.
the burn
perfect!
Whenever I need some sanity, I just watch bill. Coz he actually makes sense ❤
awesome Bill mahir
Fucking genius Bill, FUCKING GENIUS!
We need a Magic Eight Ball in the white house!
I haven't used this word in a while, but.... Pwned!!
I'm not like, a huuggeee fan of Mathews, but it's nice to hear him laugh.

Getting better and better
I agree with that Senator Sanitorium…
Best writers in the industry
My Ex says theres nothing better than looking at crystal balls
4:10-4:25 😂😂😂 "It's Romney who can't get a job"
trickle-down economics has never been right.
we need to say this. we need to understand it.
Once upon a time, Bill pointed out that trickle down was like having 3 dogs and one wiener....
just give the wiener to one of the dogs and think "He'll share with the others."
I think that's an easy way to understand it!
Bill must have the best writers in the business. That last one.
Destroyed!! 🤣😂🤣😂🤣 Damn...
That was so sahweeeet!
I honestly thought he was going to point the light at wall street
This should be sent to anyone who is still a republican
2:32 lmao
I thought that was Bernie Sanders in the thumbnail
This show should be renamed, "Preaching to the Converted with Bill Maher".
Man you're good
Stating the obvious is not effective to those that will not listen, or on another team. Team mentality must be expunged.
How is the American dream different?
+sjoyce100 I don't think it's get married right out of high school, get a job that you will stay at for life, move into a house with a white picket fence and have two kids and a dog. I think it's more life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness - whatever that may be.
0:50 that laught tho.
YESSS!

YIKES!!😂😂😂
"they're just not crystal balls" geesh, well done Bill Maher.
Why is Pataki there? lol ;-)
this video must be playing at the main entrance of congress
This video shows how ill-informed and confused, yet always full of confidence, Bill Maher has always been.
Damn Bill, some of that punch lines came back to kick your ass. Best one was "$10 for a gallon of gas"😂
I don't believe in psychic bans. As for a difference between the two, it seems like psychics almost always charge money for their services whereas Religion sometimes does and sometimes doesn't. Also a lot of religious organizations donate to charity, I highly doubt psychic organizations donate much.
the invisible hand is actually the nonexistent hand
Sidekicks cost less than psychics
The fortune teller dick joke was awesome.
