Joe Rogan and Louis CK talk about being in the top 1% is not very much and how a lot of people like to complain about inequality yet they are contributing to it on a daily basis.
Louis CK is an American stand-up comedian, actor, and filmmaker. He is the host of brand new comedy special, "Sorry."
Clip taken from JRE #1929, w/ Louis CK
Host: Joe Rogan
Guest: Louis CK
Producer: Jamie Vernon
That’s exactly how I feel now at this moment in my life Louis, treat everyone you see or meet with respect and be kind.
✌️
these people like to think on the world and give their aspersions from their success
meditate or have all the free time to think about what they want or how to see the world
then put down everyone else because they can't see it from their lofty perspective
You should treat people the way they treat you.
@@carsonwentz8301 Yep. Respect and trust are earned, not given

I've got a 2016 model phone but owned it since early 2018, so 5 years now. It's absolutely fine. I have no idea why people buy new phones every year. I could understand it more like 10 years ago when the leaps in technology mattered more. Like a 2008 phone compared to a 2010 phone is not comparable. But now, what's the point man wtf. Chill out
Right, I remember when they had to convince you to buy the phone now oof

Apple orphaned my 6+ two years ago so theres no updates and apps stop working. Such a scam.
The real question is if your phone went on an operating table to be un-orphaned, is that more or less important than a dog going into surgery? -smart probably from Tibet man

Once there was a Mystical tree with an abundance of leaves. One leaf says to another leaf, " I'm so very afraid. It's getting colder and if the temperature keeps plummeting we will all surely die."
The other leaf says to the scared leaf,"Can't you see! You're not afraid because you're going to die, you're afraid because you've mistaken your stem for your roots. You're actually rooted much deeper than you believe."
If it's deciduous, those leaves gonna die. Leaves don't have roots.
@@daverandall803 you missed the point. The leaves are not separate from the tree.
It's important to note that while $34K/year puts you in the 1% globally, that doesn't take into account purchasing power differences between countries. In many countries $30K is worth what $60-100K or more is in America.
Yep, its all relative and should be taken with a grain of salt.
In America, $49 buys what $7 bought 60 years ago. Imagine getting paid 5 bucks an hour in the 70s and you can buy more with $40 than I can with $96 after a full work day.
Edit cause I had a dyslexic-adjacent moment lol
@@bigbangattack97 That's how inflation works. In 60 years most countries had way higher inflation that the US. Also, after WW2 the US was riding a huge economy wave while most of Europe and the East had been wrecked. You cannot expect to ride that wave forever.
That's actually more shocking to me. I thought the purchasing power would be a lot higher. $60-100k equivalent to the top 1%.. I make 75 and feel poor, definitely puts things in perspective.
Cobalt is also used in the agriculture industry as a supplement for cattle and swine also poultry. I used to measure it by the lbs.

There's an amazing song by Brett Dennen called "Ain't No Reason" that describes the world we live in and how all of the chaos and injustices in our lives are just completely normal and practically ignored in every day society. One of my favorite lines is "Slavery stitched into the fabric of my clothes."
Wow very deep
A Man for All Seasons.....one of my favorite movies.
Louie is a treasure
The idea behind UBI isn't that everybody gets to do nothing. It's that you don't worry about being homeless or going hungry. People will still work to afford luxuries like nice shoes or alcohol or a million other things. Also, I don't think abstaining from buying a smart phone helps things. Like, if the world just stopped using cobalt, I really don't think the situation for all of these miners in the Congo is going to take a turn for the better. I think there is a better solution to help these people, but that's a long discussion
DAMN...I WISH PATRICE WAS HERE!!! Him and Louie...OGs with a real perspective.
I'm aware you're relatively fortunate to be lower class in the US, when you consider cobalt miners in Africa. A couple things though. $34k goes a looootttt further in other countries, so it's not accurate to say you're super privileged to make a certain income in one location. Like, you're a lot better off earning $20k a year in Indonesia than you are making $34k in the US. And also, why settle for ok? If you look at the quality of life for a relatively low income earner in the Netherlands or any Scandinavian country, you'll see that they have it much better than their analogue in the U.S. No reason to hang our caps and say we're good to go because it's luckier to be an American fast food worker than a cobalt miner in Africa. So yeah... holding both of these truths, it's pretty good here, could be a lot worse, so don't forget to enjoy what we have, but we ought to also aim higher. And yeah, fuck that cobalt slave situation. I wonder what average people can do to help those people. Or if the best thing is really just to donate to non-profits who are trying to tackle the situation.
my goal has always been to stack a decent amount of money and go live confortably outside the US!
Better off? Maybe you’d be relatively more rich but you’d probably still rather live in the US.
@@mitchellhedden1978 Why? The quality of life in America has already plummeted, since the Obamacare lie destroyed their healthcare system.
He said "if you're happy with your healthcare provide, you can keep them". Not only was that a wilful deception, he knew he was full of shit when he said it; but then the insurance companies he was banking on providing this coverage all backed out of the deal.
So what's good there? Every major city (all democrat "strongholds" by the way,) are in shambles. They're coming after your guns, they're coming after your gas stoves; your mason jars, and canning equipment.
Everything that is conducive to self-reliance, the O'biden administration is now trying to take away. They can forcibly take "your land", while offering you a pittance for it, and they'll even fine, or jail you for *gathering rainwater.*
They can jail you under the mere suspicion of terrorism, without trial, without informing your family. So as a very disappointed American myself, what is *actually* good about America right now?
@@DeftRiddle The educational standards in the US and Canada are abysmal, and have been for decades already. The public school system is part of the cancer being used to erode confidence in America.
If you're sending your kids to public school, you'd better at least be taking an *extreme* interest in what they're actually being taught. Unless you want a big surprise, when they ask for a sex change for their 13th birthday present.
All I know is that if I was making $34K a year I would be dancing in the streets, as it is now my Brother and I together make about $27K a year off of our Social Security. Maybe that's why we feel so blessed to live in America? LMSFAO!
I have never been happier and more content in my life than when I spent four months living off the grid in the forest. Just me, my dog, my tent, and the Earth. I felt so human.

Yeah the $34k thing is misleading... you need to express it in terms of how far the money goes (purchasing power parity, PPP)

You can tell a lot about a society by how they treat their animals.
well americans like dogs and have animal cruelty laws but still drone and slaughter people globally without mercy. it suggests they are psychos who are full of sht i guess.
@@iknow2145 'what aboutisms'.
or you can watch a youtube video
‘Children’
Yep, and there’s a happy medium we passed years ago here in North America. Now people openly state that they value lives of animals over humans and they use them as surrogate children. We’ve crossed over into something probably far worse than making a dog sleep outside in the cold.
"More human than human" is our mott
When the video starts to fade I get sad
Most people would seemingly consume and help pay for things while a small chunk would take money they receive and pour it into artistry. If we were just given money, especially if they don’t have you pay it back somehow once a year.
Think Global. Act Local.💯
According to the Economic Policy Institute, gaining entry into the top 1% club requires an average annual income of $823,763.
Thats Top 1% of Americans and if you think 1 in every 100 people you see earn over 800k a year i got a bridge you might be interested in buying.
Then you spend the rest of your life circlejerking with other rich people and continue ruining the world for everyone else.
Big fan of Louie, thanks for movie recommendation, but you could do a lot these days beyond your local circle. Great charities doing amazing work all around the world and great organizations (like Charity Navigator) making sure charities stay on the straight and narrow.
$34k a year is actually more than minimum wage. It works out to $17/hr.
Now imagine all those that are trading in their time for less.
I know, imagine not being rich on a global scale. How icky.
@@mitchellhedden1978 generic unoriginal “life ain’t fair” comment. How icky.
34k a year is crap! how the hell are you people accepting this? i'm still struggling with that amount. are you all upper middle class commenting?
@@Dave_of_Mordor Frankly, I don't know how most people survive in our current economic/social structure; this might have some correlation to the unstable mental states we seem to be witnessing more of... suicides, mass shootings, political unrest, etc...
I speculate people accept it due to a myriad of reasons; mostly though, it comes down to what other alternatives are there?
One can try to vote for representatives to change the system; this is very difficult, though, given the power and money gained by controlling the system. Not many people are willing to give that up. I liken it to George Washington's stance on slavery - he may have seen the inherent evil in owning and exploiting another human and that we should do away with the practice... but he wasn't ready to lead by example and give up his own slaves; fearing he might not be as well off.
One could do things the old-fashioned way; revolts & uprisings. This would typically require the general state of affairs to be quite dire, such that the average person has nothing left to lose. This is the grand key to remaining in power; let the general population have just enough so that they are distracted from the thoughts of a coup. There was a Simpsons episode that touched on this - "Let the fools have their Tar-tar sauce".

That's the thing with tiktok. It's a lot of cinematography and editing and planning out these hyper-focused trends and quick, punchy comedy. Is it high art? No, fuck no. It's stupid, kiddish nonsense. But it takes real-world EFFORT. In 10-20 years we're going to see a boom of film because so many people are going to decide "You know I liked making tiktoks a lot, I should make more stuff with my camera" and slowly develop into directors and cinematographers and editors. We already saw a (significantly smaller) boom from youtube, but youtube's barrier of entry for kids and teens was WAY higher. TT doesn't have that, and so you see a much younger crowd buying in on it. Which is HUGE for pushing this kind of thing.
I dunno, it's gonna be really cool I think.
This is one of the few positive posts about the impact of TikTok I've ever seen on the online. Interesting.

Funny/ironic how they give your opinion about something like that, as if they are not benefitting from it, or helping these people by showing a photo of them...

I understand why people don't like the free income thing but when you have to work two crappy jobs just to get by you view it differently
One can still understand that the concept is flawed, even if they would hypothetically, personally benefit from it in the short term.

That’s not how most people live…
The idea of social security is not laughable. The fact that the richest country in the world lacks social security is laughable, and the hardships of poor countries serve as no excuse at all for that. I'm from the UK and I have found myself unemployed a few times throughout my life and I have had government support so I don't starve or loose my home between jobs. Which of course works.
The does have SOcial security though. The problem is it's going to all be gone before the millennial generation is able to get. My grandfather gets both social security & a pension & he's 91 years old. The boomers are also going to get the same treatment as well.The problem lies when the US government starts a new social program they take money out of it. Look at COVID relief checks as an example. The money comes from somewhere & it comes from the money that the citizens are supposed to get when they retire. Yet all you see is the leftists complain about the people on the right & the right complain about the left. It's a perfect distraction for stupid people.
Please come to the US and take a drive through one of our hoods and tell me why everyone is sitting out in front of their houses doing jack shit. It’s not because there aren’t jobs for them.
They are not talking about Social Security or Unemployment. They're laughing about UBI (universal basic income). The idea is EVERYONE would get $1000 from the government every month. Not arguing for or against it. I'm just making it clear what they were referring to.
Just get a job, lazy ass.
@@rageinbull fair enough. Good point.
Universal income makes sense only because of our broken tax codes. If the rich were paying their shares, a livable minimum wage existed, more anti trust laws existed, the military wasn’t so heavily funded universal income wouldn’t make so much sense .

It was said long ago, "Think Globally, but act locally", which they both just spoke against.? To understand that cell phone manufacturing is a problem, you have to think globally, especially if you're an the USA, because they aren't made locally. They both contradict themselves a bit in this clip. Too bad.

There won’t be jobs for the majority of Americans hence why giving money for free will happen. People will just spend it and that will keep the economy afloat.
Lol Another great example of how Rogan will just agree with whoever he has on, and has lost so much "credibility" over these past few years.. with me at least.. just my opinion, and if you disagree that's totally fine of course.. to each their own.. but he keeps seeming more and more lad DDtely like basically all those other "stereotypes" of him lol. For example, Joe was a HUGE Andrew Yang fan, and his (Rogan's) main reason was that he really liked and kinda really supported Andrew Yang quite a bit, and Rogan loved and became a big "component" (forgive me, I think I may have used the wrong word here, but you should still understand what I'm saying/trying to get at) to the U.B.I. (Universal Basic Income) policy, aka the "free money"..?.. "just being given out" .?.. and "for no reason"..?.. (I would love to elaborate on those last few quotes/statements, and explain everything wrong with them, but I unfortunately don't have enough time right now lol, sorry).. and here Rogan is speaking like it's the craziest thing he's ever heard all of a sudden and if he changed his position since then, the that's ok I guess, but he didn't even mention how he once supported it, and why he doesn't now.. again, if anyone disagrees with what I'm sayin then that's totally fine, to each their own.

The other day I was talking to my Dad and I was telling him that I had just put down my cat and I had a vet come to the house to do it, afterwards I had her cremated and I was telling my Dad that it cost about $600, when suddenly I hear him laughing in reaction to this and he starts telling me that back when he was young they would just take a sick cat and put it in a pillowcase and throw it in the river. And I was literally pulling the phone back from my face in disgust! But then I realized, not unlike the Tibetan Monk that Louis was talking to about his dog, that my Dad, a product of the 1950's was just reacting to how insane it seems to him that we as a society have grown to use our wealth to care for others and not just shit on each other instead?
