Thank you, Mr. Maltzev. 9 years later, we are even further down the road to socialism. I am even more scared now that I have watched your video.
Just wait for this coming 2022/2023 fiscal year. It's likely gonna be spicy. Hopefully people wake up this year
Very informative video. He repeats himself often but being that English is not his first language, he speaks really well.
His English is great, it's just his accent that is very heavy.
I made my teen daughter watch 10 minutes of Soviet Story. She gets it now.
Wow! Wise Dad! Congrats! How is she now concerning socialism?
I like this speech. this speech.
You win, you win.
xDDDD
Can you imagine...
Great talk, the humour was a bonus ( :
"Yuri, you were probably right about socialism coming - the bed bugs are already here!"
How can we talk of failed socialist experience and not named France? This country is a classic example of the danger and the failure of socialism.
That’s the problem with Europe. They are too in love with themselves. European countries consistently rank the highest on the human development indexes. Why should they change if they have the best societies on the globe.
We are blessed to have such men as this one. He could live a low-key, prosperous existence yet he is motivated to go out and try to influence people for the greater good of our country.
Great speaker this man..making great points whilst giving us a laugh
Comrade Yuri is really funny. I love his sense of humor. 💖
This is terrifyingly Illuminating to listen to today.
George Bernard Shaw was NOT British, he was an Irish Nationalist. Unfortunately, their hatred of Britain was sufficient for Ireland to remain steadfastly neutral throughout WW2. Those many, many thousands of Irishmen who joined Britain and were killed fighting against Nazi Germany were NEVER granted a military funeral on Irish soil.
sweet! finally posting vids in HD! Please please keep doing this!
Bravo
Liberty + Sound Economics = Freedom
This guy is great. Puts a comedic spin on an extremely serious subject.
Actually he's not lying. the best hospitals in Cuba are paid hospital were a lot of foreigners come. You should look more than Michael Moore's movie
I'm cuban and +petion2013 is ABSOLUTELY right.
Unfortunately 'democracy' is merely the icing on the cake NOT the cake itself. Civic society is the difficult bit because it is a set of relationships built on voluntary and charitable effort and donations. It is all the societies, clubs, social groups, charities and suchlike to which people give their time and money freely. Sadly, the socialist formula makes benevolence the preserve of government - a voracious and expensive beast - it vacuums up civil society and freedom with it.
What a great talk. I really enjoyed it, and learned a lot.
If only liberals would do as much research as the rest of us.
Buddhism in Afghanistan was one of the major religious forces in the region during pre-Islamic era. The religion was widespread south of the Hindu Kush mountains. ... The Buddhist religion in Afghanistan started fading with the arrival of Islam in the 7th century but finally ended during the Ghaznavids in the 11th century.
I love the echo,
Excellent presentation.
If you’re thinking about what Bernie Sanders says, you might also want to know what Yuri Maltsev has to say . . .
Great closing lines. Wow!
Excellent presentation, 5 stars! Everybody should see the Soviet Story film, I know it has been at least in the past on Google videos.
@CurtHowland
Doh! Good catch Curt, thank you.
I find this video is really informative ... really informative ...
Do you hear an echo? I do 😊
Rest in peace our "Mises-from-Moscow"
what is the video at the end? I would like to see it 🤔
In 1944 almost the entire Swedish speaking part Estonia's population fled to Sweden rather than live in the Socialist paradise again.
Makes one think how many would have left the USSR if they could.
A year later and it is still funny...
does anyone know the name of the music played at the beginning?
@cdltpx
Hi, do you have any more information about that movie? I searched and could not find anything on it. No movie called Goodlag on English sites.
@kmg501 I expect it's spelled "Gulag", which IMDB shows several hits for, including a 2000 documentary which I expect is it.
Unfortunately, it's not in NetFlix' list.
But then, "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich" isn't in NetFlix either.
why would someone dislike this vid??
Please note that to generalise is to over criticise
Not all corporations are bad yet many of them are...
@032125 Hey, can you send me a link to the articles on Sweden?
16:16 Soviet Story. Netflix doesn't have it yet, but it's there to reserve.
"...No bullets..." hahahahahahaha!
1. 100 Million between the two world wars: 300 million to start with, 160 million in late 1940s, thus 150 by end of WW2, 50 million lost in WW2 (half from foreigners and the rest due the fight between Comintern and Stalin). 300-150=50. QED.
2. Gramchi's theorem of through destruction is names: "the long march through the institution".
Did I miss the title of the video he was holding up?
The Soviet History
@successfulbuild You MAY have it half-right: Jefferson's point was the Aristocrcy part -NOT the Corporate part.
I would be all for some Anti-trust breakups in a few Industries like Big Oil and cable communications i.e. ComCast and TimeWarner.
Big Oil quietly pursued merger after merger in the last 15 yrs until there are only a few major producers anymore. Nobody cried foul?
In Cable, there is no reason that content providers and local content distribution would be harmed by being separated.
what you say is very true, I see it coming and the road to stop it will be long and difficult if possible. however it is worth the fight.
@CurtHowland exactly!
@dennist3hmenace agreed
Thank you Mr Maltsev. Unfortunately I believe there are many young Americans who have been thoroughly propagandized by far left elements against rational and humane economics. The people in their mid to high 20's at the moment seem to be the worst for this culture of irrational and self enslaving entitlement.
If this nation is to recover itself, we must go forward teaching the basic economics of liberty.
Bedbugs and socialism: how prophetic!
@cdltpx
No worries mate, thanks.
Jimmy Fallon's estranged uncle
I'm pretty sure he is repeating himself to be very clear about what he is saying and make sure there is no confusion or ability to debate what he means and knows.
If you want to be taken seriously don't mention Gleen Beck. Thank you.
@MrManuelNoriega Why? We already have Yakov Smirnov
not sure if that comment on Marx writing about human trash is 100% accurate. Great lecture on the whole.
Yes, that's called tragedy of the common. Just thing of this for a second. You see people clean their houses, take out the trash, fix and repair their home. When was the last time you see people just go out and clean the street and pay to repair the street.
Just a compromising thought....if there were no wars......no pollution......and people eat healthy and exercised adequately.....then FREE healthcare for all could be possible!!
Problem Reaction Solution......right on schedule
@ddchalmers That's very good. Most amusing. You are full of wit. Or something like that.
@InternetDisciple yep thats what they told me in college
all these puppets that are 'rah rah rahing' bernie sanders should see this. im not for trump or cruz or hillary either for the record. i didnt hit like cause it has 420 lol
@CurtHowland I have it on my channel named the truth about marxism.
@nageen You seem to have quite a knack for downplaying the genocidal aspects of communism.
and the moslems have taken the left (the regressive/'progressive Democrats) as their useful idiots. so see how successful the Marxists have advanced - just think how successful islam will be if we let it as we let Marxism/communism advance. Ironically though - the Marxists/commies will get the same treatment from sharia as anyone else - subjugate or die.
its the other way around
Argonautica8 - well it really depends who ends up with more of the reigns of power, and whether or not the Marxists and their voters become aware of the subversive and supremacist nature of Islamic doctrine (Quran, Hadith, Muhammad’s example/teachings)
@bjarnet3 The only reason that healthcare is expensive now is because of interference by govt.
My chiropractor was telling me this morning that the state has been constantly messing with his licensing, and while it used to be easy to make a living it is now getting harder and harder and he may have to leave soon if it gets any worse.
I tried to find out where Marx talked about rac**l tr*sh and I found somethiing here: mehr-freiheit.de/sozitech/marx.html (in German, under the Headline Minderheiten). If this is the original quote though, a translation of V*lkerabf*lle to rac**l tr*sh is in my opinion a little bit distorting and out of context. I would not use that quote to discredit Marxism.
Very good speech though!
Ideology. Think about what you believe...
"We're doomed"
Not quite my comrade, you can see....so can I
We are the majority of two
In the world of the blind the one eye man is King
All hail King Comrade
lol
Please read books like "The Road to Serfdom". Understand capitalism. FIAT money is not part of a capitalist society. Coercion is not part of a capitalist society. Please do not mistake the U.S. as a capitalist society.
"... the death of a million is a statistic"
Actually Stalin didn't really say that.
shine2rust: Well, then. I guess that changes everything, doesn't it? Stalin was really a great guy, and the USSR was an honest-to-goodness people's paradise! /s
Appearing on Glen Beck is not exactly something to be proud of... But press is press I guess.
And are like ducks out of water under Common Law jurisdiction.
The key is to put them there and let them stay there
All the shenanigans corporations get up to is because of the contractual admiralty/equity colour of law system that is perpetrate and perpetuated by the corrupt judge's judicial system in America.
Peace
Summary
Communism is Socialism gone bad
Fascism is Capitalism gone bad
Capisocialism is the new Good
Are you a Neoconservative or a Libertarian?
Capitalism had its time, now we need to overcome capitalism and move on.
chris butt hurt
They had a surplus of bedbugs.
No. Don't lie. MOST Cubans get access to SOME excellent care. As for EXCELLENT care being "only for the wealthy" - this is true universally. Hayek defends this in COL.
Thomas Pynchon somebody sounds butt hurt
If its a usual excuse can you explain Orwell calling USSR state capitalist?? Or Chomsky? Or Tony Cliff? Or many other people on the left?? In any case, if USSR was socialist then you can't explain the lack of democracy. Remember Hayek attacked socialism for BEING DEMOCRATIC.
Do you know what USSR stood for?
Coward-Piven
Very interesting, however he has a dreadful habit of repeating phrases...
@successfulbuild false
@ddchalmers You seem reasonably intelligent. Why write like a fool?
@successfulbuild if you hte corporations so bad why don't you get off the internet cause you internet provider is a corporation. If you hate capitalism stop paying money and start living on a farm, make your own clothes, your own shoes, your own bread, your own salad, your own socks. Reality is with out capitalism we would live in the dark ages and my proof is the 100,000 years that humanity lived in the dark ages and poverty. My philosophy don't talk the talk if you can't walk the talk.
Present-day Russia is far more capitalist than Sweden. And the USSR was never "socialist" or "communist" -- only in name. You know that.
So, I suppose you're a Libertarian? In that case, good luck trying to democratically realize actual Libertarianism as the system -- against the interests of the huge majority of people. Real existing capitalism is no longer sustainable. Van-Hayek-style actual Libertarianism is entirely incompatible with democracy. You know that as well.
chris which is why America was not set up as a democracy - they saw how mob rule worked out sooooo well in France...
Incidentally, Sweden is far closer to actual socialism than the USSR ever was. But you know that.
BS
@@erastvandoren Please don't hold back, enlighten us all :)
@CC3GROUNDZERO Sweden has circa 50% state quote, Soviet Union had 100%
@@erastvandoren It's about the middle class always. The USSR never had a middle class; they had an incredibly rich and powerful gang at the very top and the vast majority were increasingly dirt poor. That is incidentally the same outcome as we experience in neoliberal capitalism. So the "100% state quote" argument is nonsensical, because that state was run like a very corrupt and inefficient huge corporation. It provided next to nothing for the people.
The "Nordic" countries at least *used to* have substantial social democratic welfare measures in place, providing security (both perceived and real, which are both important) to everyone in those societies. Even those countries are feeling the global neoliberal pressure and are sadly abandoning those measures, with predictable outcomes (cf. the work of Kate Pickett and Richard Wilkinson regarding societal inequality).
@@CC3GROUNDZERO Define socialism
"huh? dude 1. reading comprehension. 2. step away from the mainstream TV." I'm seriously trying to understand this "comment" (such as it is). I can read just fine. And have cited sources and could cite many, many more. As for "step away from the mainstream TV." I ask again: do you seriously deny the US state killed 100 million Indians?? If you agree then where does your anti-Communism stand? It is meaningless unless you've done something against BOTH kinds of atrocities.
@Orn Gorn That was the state at work, helped by smallpox. If private individuals had negotiated with natives without the Army, there would have been less bloodshed. Every invading force has the same history regardless of their political/financial outlook: lookup the history ofthe caliphate, orthe extreme cruelty of Spanish imperialists. Capitalism is not to blame.
Be that as it may, the wars ended 120 years ago. Native populations have been steadily increasing and racism is so passe that certain people try to enhance their prestige by claiming native ancestry. The Alaska Native Land Claims Settlement recognized property rights over vast areas. This evolution took place without communist rule.
for the love of all thats holy tell yuri not to repeat every half a sentence. the guy is good, but he is making a fool out of himself. just let him take public speaking 101.
Doug French can barely speak...
True, but Cuba is not the size of USA so budget and economics has different considerations
In a historical context, cognitive reasoning alludes the like minded to a factual conclusion; that not all socialism is bad.
Just the kind that is been fast tracked into America, so be warned
Not all Socialism is BAD just like not all Capitalism is GOOD
This Left vs Right paradigm is so divisive in cause and is endemic in so many debates
Is it not time for Socialism & Capitalism to kiss and make up
wtf
Why is he repeating himself so often?
I like it.
nice talk, but how come he promote rubbish like 'soviet story'
to such serious audience ...
