The issue with the wealthy: As they get richer they tend to confuse their net worth for their self worth.
And that includes some who "earned" their wealth. The worst of them are born with it.
Well-said. Period ✅
@@RoastedLocust 90% of millionaires and billionaires are self-made my friend!
@@karlalan3806 , that number is closer to 80%-88%, and that's discounting their education and better-than-average childhoods. Even among self-made billionaires, it takes a good deal of luck to get there - not getting sick or having a family member get sick when you need that money to invest, getting in market at the right time, being born with the right genes, living in the right place to start your business, knowing the right people - I'm not discounting their hard work, but nobody gets where they are without help. Think of all the variables that make a person who they are, and there are an infinite number of things they didn't control to become who they are.
@@RoastedLocust Man you are just looking for ways to explain the fact that you never tried anything. The majority of billionaires don't even have a college degree. Many of them didn't have a great childhood. Do you think "Oprah had a great childhood? Warren Buffet grew up during the great depression. Sergey Brin fled Russia and created google. Instead of sticking your head up your butt, get some education, read books. Nothing is easy in life. If you want, try reading the communist manifesto and then the wealth of nations and you'll see which one makes sense.
I once heard that George Lukess spent 25 years trying to build a media production studio on his property, which would create some 600 new jobs, but there was a problem. His affluent neighbors didn't want all that noise and traffic in their peaceful, upscale community. Then in 2012, after years of battles, Lukess announced he was giving up and selling the property. And guess who he sold it to? Low income housing! The neighbors were outraged, but there wasn't a damn thing they could do about it.
George Lucas.
Good idea, George ... :)
never heard that story but of true its cool
Thats what you should do when you have fuck you money.
Leanne Faith how cool is that?? If true!👌☺
God I love Bill Maher. Jon Stuart may be gone, but this man has the balls to tell people like it its. I don't always agree with him but he deserves respect.
*Jon Stewart
A rich asshole making fun of other rich assholes. Yep...hypocrisy is funny. 😉
Jeremy Snow Comedians make fun of people. Welcome to earth.
@@theshreksorcist4571 like I said, hypocrisy is funny 😉
Jon Stewart’s still around, advocating health benefits for 9/11 first responders and veterans (with the occasional appearance on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
I've got a wealthy friend, and I've single handedly watched him slowly shift towards this greedy, terrible way of thinking. It's so depressing.
He went from poor to rich?
Fuck him
"single-handedly" ? As in no one helped you observing that? You did it all by yourself? 😏
Ultimately, greed devours everything, including itself

I worked as a caddie on a golf course when I was in high school - yes, I am half-Mexican. Whenever a rich guy was dick to me, I used to do a couple of magic tricks to entertain them. They laughed and were entertained, but they didn't realize I pick-pocketed them during my tricks and gave their money to the homeless people in my neighborhood. That was some fun payback. Trickle-down economics, am I right?

Sid James Yeah they are some of the worse whiners out there. Just like the "open carry" ASSHOLES won't go over and fight ISIS. I have seen articles of some groups from Europe putting their money where there mouths are are putting their lives on the line and fighting ISIS.

I wonder how much bill is worth
@@kipstockton426 over 150000000
Shut the fuck up, Obrien. If we were on fire, this prick and his elitist guests sitting around him wouldn’t piss on you or me to put out the flames. “A good person”? Did you wake up stupid this morning, or is it a permanent state of mind?

***** But, of course, what is your minimum wage???
"The knockout game"? Is that supposed to sound hard or badass?

yes and gives you free healthcare, free education/unoversity and free coverage
They did a good job of convincing us that we're not have-nots, we're soon-to-haves. We all have a pathological need to display to others that we can attain.
I love how bill has a ton of wealth but he still manages to keep things in perspective. He always defends the poor and thinks of realistic ways to help them. Unlike our hard working, christian, conservative brothers.
Ah no... No he doesn't.
Sprin Draconis Ah, yeah... He does.
Javier Lorenzana nope, hes a self centered elitiest who thinks hes doing right results be damned.
Mackdaknife6669 you have a slightly outdated definition of "a ton of wealth". He's worth like 30 mil after over a decade on HBO.
It costs more than that to create fifteen minutes of dragon footage for each season of Game of Thrones.
There are 35+ year old washed up nba players whose annual salary is more than his entire net worth, and that doesn't even include endorsements.
Nobody with 30 million dollars is using their "ton of wealth" to rewrite policy on any level higher than their local school board.
Yeah he's doing better than your average dentist, but unless you have footage of him using that wealth to shoot a panda, I fail to see the hypocrisy.
Brett Perry 30 mils is actually more than enough to start a movement but if you are efficient and smart about it.
Greed used to be called a "deadly sin", people like Trump think it's a virtue.
Damn well said.
The USA has a religion alright, and it worships money, not God.
This is the "all about me society", and the beginning of the end of humanity.
True, but
People have always said that the current generation is the selfish generation
Its what we're taught......
I think Trump has got the deadly sins mixed up with the ten commandments.
50 million are living in poverty. Meanwhile there is one family worth 130+ billion dollars, more than the bottom 40% combined. The US has a total accumulated wealth of 100 trillion dollars while there are at least 50 million people who don't have a cent to their name. The system is not broken, it is working exactly as it was set up FROM THE BEGINNING.
DynamicUnreal Who is this family you speak of? The richest man in the world right now is Carlos Slim at $53.5 billion.
That would be the Walton family. Owners of Walmart, they are worth ~144 billion.
Ethel Mertz
Richest US Families:
Walton Family 144 billion
Koch Family 104 billion
Mars Family 80 billion
Cox Family 60 billion
S.C. Johnson Family 51 billion
Pritzker Family 47 billion
Google "BBC finds the US is an oligarchy, not a democracy."
Ethel Mertz It's not Carlos Slim, it's actually Bill Gates again. As for the wealthy families someone else responded to it.
Please tell me how do you blame the family who owns Wal-mart for people buying their shit? for the cities that allowed them to come into their neighborhoods and run small business owners of work and make absolutely illogical to even compete. please tell me
Boy do I love this guy.
And it doesn't matter how much money he has, the only thing that matters is what he does with it !

Brian B. Why is that hypocritical? He's putting his money into supporting worthwhile causes not using it to indulge himself on worthless ego-gratifying hunting trips! Perhaps you should think a bit before posting
+BigDeanoSyd He complains about elections being bought off yet he's the one buying them off! Wothwhile causes? LOL
Utmost respect Bill. We need to talk about this more. Wealth hoarding and inequality is a huge problem that is largely ignored
One might even arrive at the conclusion that a system
which allows such inequality is a very poor way to organize society!
@@gking407 And how would you organize society? Be specific.
Wonder why my country, Finland, is not already selling there water
Thank you for articulating it better than even I could! I've been trying to figure out forever just how needy are these people in their souls that they need so much anymore? Its sick beyond sick! Good on you for taking them to task!
Nice to have you back bill...
Dentists have you applying for credit now because prices are so high and dental insurance is a joke that doesn't cover major procedures.
OldskolFan At least in UK we have a choice; 'cheap' NHS or extortionate private. That is until our Conservative Government gets it's grimy little paws on it. They will give you the choice of getting a loan or dying of starvation because eating has become impossible. But then, they have to pay for the wealthy's tax cuts somehow.
+John Benton hey is this saying true? Europeans work to live and Americans live to work? I am American. Just heard this the other day from another Anerican. Don't know if he's being whinny or if he's actually right.
Close enough. In UK we have lots of holidays, A guaranteed 35-hour working week, and oodles of paid leave for all sorts of unlikely things.
+John Benton 35 sounds a lot better than 40 + mandatory overtime.
The EU has a statutory working-week limit of 35 hours over 5 days. Individuals can 'volunteer' to exceed this limit, but they are paid overtime (1.3 x normal pay) for the extra hours, or double-time for Sunday working if this is not part of the normal working week. There are some professions where this is not possible (truck drivers, doctors, etc) but agreements on standard hours=overtime must be in writing and signed by both parties. UK workers work longer hours than (eg) Germans, but productivity can suffer from working too long. Uk workers retire (ATM) at 65, but in certain circumstance can work beyond the normal retirement age but this is not compulsory. Lorry (truck) drivers like I was until retirement usually work 12 hours per day, 5 days per week, but are paid for 50 hours, the extra hours being paid at the higher rate -up to a maximum of 60 hours per working week. The rules and regulations limiting Heavy Goods Vehicle driving are very complex, and open to interpretation. I'm glad I'm no longer part of it. Retirement means a significant reduction in 'salary', but retirement pay is considered enough to live on. I hope I've covered as much as possible, and I hope I've made a complex system relatively clear.

Obscene wealth is just that: OBSCENE. There is nothing to admire in wealth. Keep reminding people of this fact.
I suppose socialism (ie distributed poverty) is better. Your comment is dangerous, and I won't let your political ideology be normalized.
+Astrobucks2 She never insinuated about socialism at all, she is just pointing out the obvious moral/ethical dilemmas that having obscene wealth can have on entire societies. By the way, your understanding of socialism is very lacking considering you would use a very Friedman like phrase like “distributed poverty” to describe it. Socialism is simply the workers ownership of the economy either through a variety of strategy and tactics like public ownership of assets with democratic internal management, worker ownership through cooperatives in a market economy with a democratically accountable system of management, and a socially/ common based system of ownership through the mediation of radical trade unions that actively resist the state. You version of socialism is a distorted right wing view designed to scare monger working class folks into supporting policies that are detrimental to the well being and autonomy of the working class in the long term.
@@Astrobucks2 socialism isn't distributed poverty, lmao
@@TheBoxingCannabyte Socialism doesn't lift people up, it brings everyone down
You know whats better than having a handful of "obscenely" rich people? Having EVERYONE become obscenely rich. Then we can focus on the non-material things in life. How do we accomplish that? Unregulated Capitalism
Here I am again clicking on a Bill Maher video hoping to disagree with him and his views, and yet again, he proves me wrong. Like it or not, no one can disagree with the truth.

"I am tired of taking parties of rich American dentists" - Rollo in Jurassic Park 2
Those who are rich became so because there was no competition in the early days of industrial manufacturing.
Today it is more about keeping that marketshare than actually inventing something new.
I guess you don't count Facbook, The Internet, Uber or many more inventions. People who have gotten rich have usually worked very hard, had foresight and been lucky and don't take no for an answer.
So you think Tesla, Facebook, Amazon and the like were created in the 18th century?

1:30 "Buying a bottle of wine for $10,000"
...this hits differently when he sits across from Gavin Newsome
I know, that's what fucking kills me about this sketch
It doesn't hit at all. Seeing a rich person brag about buying an expensive bottle of wine that might even be undrinkable is absolutely nothing compared with watching obese women eating Halo Top ice cream and pretending they feel good about themselves.
I use to work as a cart attendant at a golf course. I was treated like a second class citizen.
Bill Maher......... you are great !!!! so straightforward and funny !!!!!
I had a friend who was a dentist. One night while hanging out he asked me how long it would take to be a machinist and I responded, after about five years with the right tutelage you could probably call yourself a machinist. He was taken aback and told me that without having to learn all the unnecessary bullshit, he could teach me to be a dentist in nine months! I am a musician and he was a wood be musician, that is how we got to be friends. These days you go to like a 1 year course and learn some computer programming and call yourself a machinist, it ain't that kind a party.
Please, can we regurgitate your brain-farts, somewhere else⁉️👎😝
Dear Bill,
This is one of your best yet!
Bill Maher...speaks truth!
You `ve opened my eyes. Thx
That hit the spot! Thanks!
Awesome commentary! I'm not a liberal, or conservative, I'm a rational human being. Bill Maher first impressed me with his rational stance against vaccines, and continues to impress me with his well thought out opinions, which are similar to mine.
No, I'd say you're extremely liberal. Do you also believe in a flat earth? Since you also hate vaccines, I'm just wondering.
@Karl Marx No. No they're not. Almost every anti-vaccine person I know is a tree-hugging, anti-big pharma nut job from some place like Vermont. They listen to NPR, live in white-only towns in New England and Oregon, and make WAY more than minimum wage.
@Karl Marx I absolutely do. And what planet are you living on? Almost all of the anti-vaxxer rhetoric has been coming from places like Oregon, Seattle, California, etc etc. Not exactly bastions of Tea Party resistance. Just this week there was a measles outbreak near Seattle. Come on dude.
I love Bill Maher. Keeping American sane and funny! Well played sir!
Great monologue. Hit the nail on the head on so many points.
I Love this, I just was humiliated for helping my wealthy mother in law for 50 bucks a month for my help on her rental. so it happens from small to large issues, so sad. we should help each other protect each other because we need each other. Every Life Matters.
Last sentence : "...If that sounds wrong, we'll make a law that it sound legal." WOW.. He just nailed it !! :)
it makes me sick that people kill animals like this. Absolutely disgusting.
+416mcp It is disgusting but you have to understand that the money goes towards the long term protection of the larger populations of the animals in the parks from REAL poachers. Without the money from these shoots there would be no rangers patrolling.

If you're not a vegan you have no right to be angry. You're simply a hypocrite
Some of the animals are sick
Gavin is a joke
It’s still the same but worse
Bill Maher, you are so right on!
Amen, brother! I've been stating over and over that if you want to keep your money, buy a politician. That's what corporate law led to. It wasn't enacted to do so, but the beneficiaries of it made sure it did by promising the law makers a cut. That's also why the employers are so afraid of unions. If all us slobs unionized (and if the heads of unions weren't such sleaze bags), we could undercut their clout. Let's face it. Who makes the world turn? We, the workers, the actuators, the doers! Ideas are great but daydreams are just daydreams until something is done about them.
words of wisdom.
Funny thing is, my dentist actually did sell his practice and leave to go active in the military. Good man and great dentist.
Bill you really scored a great 1st show after the summer break. Keep up the great work. You are the only one last satirist we have left after Jon Stewart left his Daily show...and Bill Moyers is also gone in the serious side of the street...; This is depressing, so please KEEP IT UP and welcome back.

Tell it like it is Bill. Never stop!
Can we agree that if a person works hard, does their best, continues to strive for a better wage, a better life....should that not warrant decent earning$?
64kimmyjo Sure, but what about if you dont work at all and have a giant trust fund that makes ridiculous Earning$?
64kimmyjo of course they should. But lets be real here. The majority of the richest people in the country did not get there through their own hard work, they did so through the capital of their parents and the exploitation of others.
I dont think the top 0.1% got half the wealth in the world because they worked 10000 times harder and contributed 10000 times more than anybody. Jeff Bezos didnt cure cancer he started a business with a 300,000 check from his parents at the right time. A lot of harder working people with better ideas didnt have that handout.
Somewhere between forcing everyone to have equal income (which nobody wants) and 0.01% of people owning half of everything there must be some sweet spot where yes you can work hard get lucky and get filthy rich, but also nobody has to die cause they cant afford basic health care food and shelter. That sweet spot is called Norway.
Runstar Homer so their parents worked hard to provide for their children... maybe your kids will do better if you do the same. If someone is incompetent, the wealth will disappear. If they grow their wealth, they are competent. You’re paid based on customer choice. I don’t mind paying taxes however I do mind if others slack off and enjoy the ride while I work 60+ hour weeks.
Wondering Spirit , Trump has proven time and again that you don’t need to be competent. Look at the trump twins too (Eric and Jr)...
Ive always said if youre gonna hunt something it should be able to fight back

Mr. Maher, ThankYou.
Wow! Bravo!
Bill you are the best!!!! Sock it to them!!!
Yea, I know right? Soak the rich! Let's put them in camps! Yea!
My dentists have always been rich. Including the one I have now (in a strip mall). Good living.
I prefer rich dentists, the poor ones seem to do the worst work. I dunno why that is.
Bill Maher keeps in real 100% always !! Salute !!
Not only is bill funny but he seems so genuine in caring about issues and I bet in person he would treat all people the same now that is a real man money and heart.and most of all funny.
this is the end game with Laissez-Faire Economics. No, the end game is they have ALL the money and the poor revolt.
Dental costs are so expensive and it mostly affects sub median wage people, worse and worse down the lower the income gets. You have to get your teeth yanked no money for the option of crowns,regular check-ups or caps or implants and that is pretty psychologically humiliating as well as difficult to eat and bad for all round health. Maybe if we can start having free or much reduced cost for education dentists will not have to go so far in debt and be able to lower costs.
corey wiley Go to Merida in the Yucatan Mexico the dentists there are just as good as any other dentist and charge 10% of US dentists.
Douglas Kay In TJ they are charging just as much as American Dentists. Maybe because they are so close?
You said it all ❤👍
OMG, Bill! Thank you for addressing this! I am from N. CA, land of bring your own bags and brown landscapes. I just went to visit family in S CA, (where I grew up, and sold my car to move away from...once Donald Brinn (sp?) developed Laguna Canyon, a place I loved and fought against the development of) only to see an increase in freeways, toll roads, housing with shocking green lawns and groceries bagged automatically in plastic. How is it I can suffer from culture shock in my own state, let alone the place I grew up? I thought we, as a state, were more ahead of the curve.
I love the Bill.
Bar none, my favorite atheist.
We need the atheists.
I'm not one, but I know they are needed because most of them live in the NOW. That's why people like Bill care so much about what's happening NOW.
Don't write-off a good atheist.
They're some of the best people around. God bless 'em:)

I hunt deer, but that's it. I could never imagine shooting a lion, or an elephant, or a bear without feeling like a jackass.
Most us eat meat, but don't the guts to kill it. If you kill it eat it. Nothing wrong there.
Why? It's killing an animal either way. People love to think it6different but it's not.
@@neolithic3 , there is a difference, if you look at it from a natural perspective rather than an emotional one. If you hunt a prey animal that is plentiful in numbers then you're not actually affecting the balance of nature. If you hunt any animal, predator or prey, that is already declining in numbers and possibly endangered then you are having a genuine impact on the balance of nature. In the case of predators, if they were wiped out then many prey animals would breed beyond the limits that their environment could sustain and many would starve anyway, which is a far worse fate than being killed by a hunter. I'm not fun of hunting for sport but I also think that we should avoid being too emotional either way on the subject.
