I love how this show holds no punches in keeping both parties accountable.
Only if we had a main stream press that did this job....
Start a go fund me so we can purchase some ad space on CNN just to run Rising segments lol
Wouldn't that be something?
funny story, this is what network television used to be...
@@atom_gray I'm old(er). I remember! Maybe a little slanted, but not like it's been for the past 15-20 years. Journalists prided themselves on being nonpartisan rather than running an agenda. That was for editorials.
I really enjoy that they shit on both sides. I myself lean conservative for the most part. I am definitely pro small business and opening up the economy. We just need masks and common sense. They treat us like the entire population is stupid. I appreciate the way the hill report on both sides even though I get a vibe they are more left leaning on issues, which is fine. Redpilled at a very young age, used to be a super left leaning Portlandian kid. So, I am not too unfamiliar or intolerant to different oppinions like most people.
The Art of Being Rich: slowly transfer the nation's tax bill away from the wealthy onto middle, working, & poor people.
On Google you can find graphs since the 1980s of One-Percenters alleviating themselves of federal, state, & local taxes.
These schemes go by many different names: tax deduction, tax cut, write-off, get-govt-off-my-back, tax break etc...
These schemes are championed by Republicans with covert Democratic support. e.g. Obama extended the Bush tax cuts
The president does not have the power to pass legislation into law. GW Bush did not give tax cuts to the rich, Obama did not extend them, and Trump did not cut them further. All of that legislation was passed by our elected representatives in Congress. We will never have change until we vote for representatives that actually represent us and not the wealthy and powerful.
@@Notecrusher Good luck with that. Party politics is too entrenched and changed too often to allow any continuity to grow, Add that states also have an input into the introduction of federal systems, a la ACA, and you have an incredibility diluted political system.
Poor people pay taxes? That's a joke. In my years with the IRS has have seen so much money go out, people making more in refund than they make working. And they're getting housing assistance and food stamps, on top of this. If you're too stupid to get a good job, you have no business passing your genes on to make even stupider kids who will also take out of the kitty.
Bill Clinton repealing Glass-Steagall in his lame duck session after Wallstreet elected his wife allowed the 2008 crash to occur by removing limits on Wallstreet gambling with peoples homes. The worst single thing done by any president in terms of damage done to Americans in our countries history. How many people lost their homes.

Ahhhahaha yeah i noticed that XD

Lmao yes!!

At this point is anyone surprised
I’m annoyed by this. With the democrats being out of touch corporate liberals and exposing themselves as the out of touch corrupt people they are... THERE IS AN VACCUME political opening for trump and GOP to consolidate into our coalition. But they are just doubling down on libertarianism economics that will be absolutely no new indepdent/swing voters to our MAGA movement. Greedy out-of-touch imbeciles should are allergic to being forward thinking.

Happy Guy only Saagar
Oh no, I expect the worst at this point
"There's ALWAYS more down." -Cordelia Chase.
Saagar, if you keep worrying over workers your fellow Republicans are going to call you a socialist!
They already doing that
He does put too much emphasis on the workers instead of the nation’s well being. But with all the pro big buisness gop members, it is sorely needed so we can get effective compromise that make the GOP much more populist without neglecting its pro capitalist root. But no, double down on the controversial and not-so popular tax cuts for the rich. As a right winger, it’s so agrrivating. GOP continue to shill for the ultra rich while that’s ultra rich will just turn around and vote for joe Biden or Justin amash. DUMBFCKS! And trump deserve some blame too. Sick and tired of him being manipulated by economic libertarianism.
True. But I don’t believe in class conflict. The workers are important but should not be the only focus of economics. Nationalism politics always put the interest of the nation as a whole before any class. That’s the best way of how to do it.
4 where in your head was anyone in the Republican Party, including the president, ever on the side of anyone besides big corporations?
You do realize corporations are winning big because of Trump, right? Huge tax cuts. Socialism for corporations, deregulation.
He was never for anyone except big corporations. So where in your mind are you getting that Trump ever had a populist agenda?
Let um. He's speaking the truth and needs to be heard far and wide!
As a right of center Republican, I would support a federal jobs program for pharmaceutical and medical supply production. I would be happy to spend $1 trillion to bring 100% of our national needs in those two areas permanently, by law, back to US soil.

I agree MANDITORY TERM LIMITS NO VOTING ON IT
We had a good choice. Sanders. Every election local and national there is one candidate that is a good choice. The problem is people vote for Pelosi, McConnell, Schumer, etc... And they think they are entitled to that position. So until we force them out of their jobs, it will continue to be business as usual. Get money out of politics.

I would always happily pay my taxes. I saw it as a membership fee for living in a first world country and a thriving community.
However, if the money keeps being given to failing corporations and not helping the quality of life of my fellow Americans then what the 🤬are we paying taxes for?
This whole country has been falling apart for years, and years, even during my childhood, which was in the 60s, because it was all constantly used for the defense industry, for fighting wars, giving billions to another country, so they can have all the things we don't have. if people knew what I know, just working as a legal transcriptionist, how much graft, stealing and corruption there is, they would never pay taxes again -- they would utterly revolt. The numbers are often staggering by the time these cases get to trial, if they do, and I guarantee you the money never goes back -- never, never, never.
Its one of the reasons for the Rev war. The politicians are robbing us of our money
"The only power we have is to vote".... Umm I think you are forgetting some other options Saagar; also do you really trust your vote will count in THIS society?

people should not go back to work or negotiate higher wages before returning. Otherwise, let they companies stay empty without workers
I've never seen Krystal so angry, but fair enough. If payroll tax were cut, that would spell doom for many working-class Americans who are currently relying on the social security payments generated by the payroll tax in order to keep going.
NO, they have that one wrong. The payroll tax does not "pay for" Social Security. It's a regressive tax that hurts poor and working class people and it should be eliminated. Social Security is financed exactly the same way the Pentagon, fossil fuel subsidies, and all federal spending are: The federal government uses its Constitutional power to coin US currency.
epic djyoshi they would still pay Social Security. And it really is a regressive tax. The more you make, the less percent you pay, over $100,000.
People not being paid now, getting in debt, finally returning to work and getting paid a bit more won't fill in the hole. Unemployed people don't pay payroll taxes.
@Shirou Kotomine libertarians do not advocate for control of anything mate, libertarians literally advocate for liberty aka the doctrine of being free to choose. 1) no govt policies distorting market, 2) encourage competition by eliminating barriers to entry/exit (which means removing monopolies if they exist)
No it wouldn’t. It is simply an accounting transfer of digits showing that funding to SS comes from debt rather than from payroll taxes.
Austerity....call it what it is
How many tax cuts can they make? Are they even paying taxes anymore? Some of the big corporations effectively aren't already.
Amazing is it not. I do not know anyone who makes their living off capital gains a payroll tax only helps those who still have a job. They basically took the people who lost their jobs with no fault of their who were told by the GOVERNMENT to shut down, "Here are some boot straps, sucks to be you. Here corporations, banks, and wall street, how many zeros do you want me to put on this check? Better yet, let me just sign it and you put in the numbers."

Because taxes are for the little people.
Sounds like what a republican of the distant past would have said, Saagar.
Idk about that. But the GOP needs to transform itself into a populist-right party. What they are doing here of appeasing big buisness is so frustrating because these rich people by in large will still vote for neo liberal democrats.

Like you, I’m lucky enough to have a little saved up so when this hit, I wasn’t bad off. BUT, what about people who make $13-$15 a year? What’s to save? Their daily lives are already beyond frugal and there’s still nothing left.
I grew up quite poor. Went hungry on a regular basis. I mean couldn’t even afford ramen every day. And both my parents worked...but made nothing after bills etc and as one of their 5 kids, I went without (clothes, food, etc) right along with them. Granted, they probably should t have had five kids they couldn’t afford but it was what it was. Just glad it’s over now.

Saagar Enjeti: destroyer of the too-far-gone right
Destroyer of corporate goons
Reopen the economy while the infected cases and death are is capitalist class against the American people. Those capitalists have looted the wealth of the people through the tac cuts and bailouts. The Debt will be paid by the people by higher taxes and cutting social programs. Those politicians and Trump are doing all the looting for the wealth. It is a class war under the pretext of fighting the virus.
Yes, the bailouts should go to the people not to corporations.
The debt is *always* paid by higher taxes & cutting programs. Short of printing money & lowering the value of our fiat currency even more (inflation; see Venezuela), government money is *our* money acquired via taxation. Where did you think it came from?
@@TheHanshotfirst Government money is our money. Are you fake? government resources are owned by the capitalists not OURS. Money printing has not increased inflation yet. All printed money is hoarded. But if the US economy is collapsing and money printing continues, the dollar will not be a world reserve currency. But those politicians know that the debt now will be covered mostly by cutting social programs and higher taxes on the people with the exception of the capitalists. Venezuela is not the USA because its currency is not world reserve currency. In addition dollar is backup now by oil transactions. This why Trump was fool when he told Bin Salman to increase oil production. More oil and lower prices will weaken the dollar as reserve currency. Currently, several countries are not using the dollars in their transactions and some have already dumped the dollars for gold. If you are old I am sure when the dollar was destroyed in the 1970 before Nixon declared no gold for dollar. Many countries had no dollar when Nixon destroyed Briton Woods. Yes, national debt will be paid by the Americans whether in higher or cutting social programs or both. Government may loot our property as well. Capitalists will pay nothing.
You two real journalists... thank you for continuing to fight for us!
Saagar is incorrect about the national debt. The economy is already a house of cards. Did Saagar Enjeti, the Hill TV journalist, NOT know this already?
This is the perfect time for big infrastructure projects. Not only does the US need the economic stimulus, but it needs the work done. Plus, fewer people are out and using these roads and other things, so it's less disruptive (for now) to work on them. Although the work will take much longer than the pandemic will last for, there's still less disruption overall if that work overlaps with the pandemic.
So saggar . Tell me agsin why M4A isn't going to work . Tell me again that there's no money for it .
HHHHHMMMMMMMM
M4A even by Bernie's estimations would more than double our current federal spending. There is no money for it unless you're willing to quite literally double taxes for everyone.
Republicans don't really believe we can't afford it. Their objection is really libertarian: government bad, taxes worse.
Han Shot First that is a complete lie. Even the conservative Koch studies showed M4A being cheaper than the current system while offering everyone healthcare. It’s obvious why - no middlemen creaming off profits. Every other developed country on Earth does it. Why do you think the US can’t?
@@TheHanshotfirst Can't believe you said that with a straight face after the last 4 trillion bailout stimulus was handed out to those at the top.
@@thejquinn lol why are you assuming I was in favor of that either?
"Payroll tax cut" is standard code for "entitlements" cuts.
"Saagar: "Is *anybody* even talking about more direct cash payments to Americans; or a monthly recurring payment in the middle or a crisis? No."
Actually, since before the first CARES Act corporate stimulus bailout, Rep. Justin Amash has been consistently arguing that whatever 'stimulus' money Congress chooses to spend, it should only go directly to Americans in the form of monthly payments.
It's simply amazing how you somehow smear 'economic libertariansim' as if it's the philosophy of a blatant corporate-tool like Mitch McConnell and simultaneously ignore the policy proposals of an actual Libertarian Party Presidential candidate.

Unemployment is at 16%
That means 84% of workers are still working.
If the 16% lost their jobs due to Carona they receive not the normal unemployment benefit of 2/3 their salary, but receive their full wage plus $600 a week on top of that.
Shut up.
Millions losing jobs at alarming rates(jobs that were barely cutting it to begin with because since Reagan they have outsourced and cut wages while cost of living has skyrocketed).
Now, anytime the 99% are struggling we hear “there’s no money for that” but in 08 as millions were foreclosed on the banks got a bailout. The automakers got a bailout . Now it’s companies and Wall Street again that they find trillions in bailouts for while giving people $1200 that doesn’t even cover rent. Now they wanna rush to start the economy back up but people would still have two-three months of bills and these jobs they could barely afford one month on that before all this.
Why is it that Wall Street is bailed out right away but everyone else is chastised and told they should have savings to rely on and the government shouldn’t “reward “ bad behavior.
Voters should vote third-party up and down the ballot this November. When you vote for a democrat or republican, you're telling them you *approve* of their behavior and their policies. And, not voting ensures that you literally do no count. Voting third-party is the *only* way to actually show your displeasure. Remember: 100% of messages that are not sent are not received. Send a message this November!

Good points saagar!
the money should be given to WORKERS NOT COMPANIES. If they need them they are paying them. Else it is 90 % unemployment and some child benefits - something along those lines. That way companies cannot cheat. And the power is WITH workers, incl. the power to walk off a job if the bosses do not care about safety. Would be an unique opportunity to unionize.
How about bailing out the people?
BEST DISCUSSION SO FAR!!!!
Ummm...you can get $3,000 ish per month in unemployment. That’s a direct cash payment. Food stamps too.
You think the economy is bad now. Wait till all those furlough payments are expected to be paid in a big balloon payment. There is going to be a lot of repossessed houses, cars, boats, RV's, and pretty much everything people get loans for. You think 2008 was bad, the US government is saying..."Hold my beer". If only they gave people a UBI for those months to cover those bills.

And this is how corruption destroys a nation.
Kentuckians should not only demand McConnell's immediate resignation, but they should ban him from ever being allowed to come back to Kentucky.
I agree with you Saagar! It’s going to be a long time til people return to work. I’m a sales manager at dealership in LA and we are currently reaching out to our employees to bring them back to work but none of them want to return to work because they are making $4,200 on unemployment by staying home and they don’t want to put their family at risk. I genuinely wonder about the people that are struggling right now, because if you go unemployment in California you can make over $4k a month which isn’t too bad.. unless you didn’t have a job before the virus then you’d get nothing. The people I see suffering the most are the salespeople who make $5-10k a month and now making way less on unemployment or making less at work because of lack of sales. I’m open to any thoughts or opinions to help bring my sales staff back to work.
