Personally, I'd rather keep Sanders as a Senator while under a Yang presidency with initiatives like Democracy Dollars on his side, making Bernie's work a lot easier as he continues fighting to make a more equal, stable environment for Americans. Either way, I think each candidate is great and deserves to be heard.
I actually think he's just afraid of people will pitch forks so he wants to give people pocket money to keep them happy. VAT is coming out of our own pocket to fund it while the wealthy one factory after another outsource the jobs or automate them. That means in the future there will be bunch of useless and jobless people and a few who own the whole country.
mehrshadvr4 hes not doing this because he wants to...hes doing this because he knows whats coming and we need to do this, and remember 1000$ is just the bottom floor..if it gets worse later on we would certainly go to 2000$ or more...or you can vote for the other candidates and work at a job you dont like for the goverment like oh i dont know ex.(North Korea)..and when you loose that job you get 0$(Bernie Sanders)..automation is coming weather you like it or not, or weather you want to admit it or ignore it(Elizabeth Warren)..also UBI VAT tax is for everyone not just the poor..which is a good change from what it is right now where onlly normal people get to pay it..but im not good at explainin it myself...but i know who is...#Andre Yang ..check him out
Holy crap. This is the first time I hear his stance on addiction. That's a huge statement, and not one that will ring positively with conservatives. What a ballsy stance.
Yeah, I almost wished he held that closer to the vest, as to not scare off some voters, but I agree with him... and he’s consistent with his motivation to really heal and empower the American people and that’s an important piece.
@@recostume3578 I agree with him as well. Progressive addiction tactics have proven to be successful. I'm just worried at how easily his statements can be manipulated to dissuade less informed voters. There will have to be a lot of education around this for voters to realize that this is a positive course of action.
As somebody who works with addiction he is 100% correct. I'm also a pharmacist and from that standpoint he is also 100% correct. I don't know how the conservative party became aligned with such negativity with regards to humanity. The Portugal model is proven and tested. We need to make it happen.
As someone from Europe, I support this message. :-) Bernie is also pretty good. They both have policy problems. Yang's terrible on for example Israel and some other foreign policy. I think if Yang became president with Bernie as VP or the other way around and Tulsi was secretary of state and maybe even changed things around so state department is more directly involved in commanding the military. That combo would be killing it.
Yang is great but the one thing Yang is missing from his calculation is “people” he will not be able to pass this without a huge union & ppl’s movement and unfortunately he doesn’t have that and time is running out on him obtaining that.
Oh man, he's even got an excellent drug policy. This man should be president now. There's not a single shortcoming in his platform that I've seen, and I'm highly critical of politicians. Well done Mr. Yang
That he criticises the government and big pharma and takes responsibility and recognises addiction is an illness and symptom of an unwell society... God, don't you just love him? 🤗
I'm from the UK and I want him to be President because I believe he can change the world and I believe a lot of countries will be inspired by Andrew Yang.
That would be my dream ticket.... And I'm european, not able to vote for any of them. But even people abroad are catching on to Yang and Gabbard. They want the US to become the innovative and moral leader they've always thought themselves to be... You guys have a Chance here, please do not waste it coz we rely on you all doing the right thing for a chance :-)
@@PenneyThoughts I'd be down with that, too. Yang president with the solutionist mindset, Gillibrand as VP (appealing to more established centrists), Gabbard as a super secretary (SoD + SoS) and Bernie spear-heading a ministry for a green new deal version with *meaningful* but not guaranteed jobs and strengthening worker unions/rights. One objection, though, to not making Gabbard VP. Gillibrand is less appealing to conservatives. If Yang is as good as we think, he shouldn't be reliant on his VP pick. But I still think, Gabbard is resonating more solidly with people on the right.
SO intelligent and focused on what SHOULD matter in this society! As a mental health professional, Andrew Yang makes the most sense of anyone. I love the changes he wants to implement in our government so it TRULY takes care of it's citizens. Go, YANG!!!!
@gespilk More like Yang's UBI is: Your beer is taken from you and the dividend takes a bit of that and gives it back. Wealth UBI is people with a few beers give a portion of their beer, but don't exactly want to so you say you only have 1 beer.
gespilk The way I understand it. A consumption tax (VAT) is superior to a wealth tax because once someone has made there millions or billions of dollars it is theres and very hard to take back. This idea is kind of new to me as well. Why don’t we just tax rich people? Well I guess it’s like once you buy a car it’s yours. OR LIKE when you buy a case of BEER it’s yours, you can share that beer with others if you want or you can drink it all yourself it’s your choice. If however before you buy that case of beer you are aware that one bottle will go to help another American get drunk you might say “ya sure it’s for the better good go ahead.” And others would say “ how Bret Kavanaugh of you. Thank you!” Now let’s say you have 2,000,000 cases of beer, and the government says “ you must give a percentage of your beer to others”, you would say “of course, I have more beer than I can ever drink, of course I’ll share.” Well unfortunately there are a lot of pricks who don’t think that way and never will. So before they buy other case of beer you let them know that 10% goes to get the rest of us drunk! Any way that’s what I think the difference is. Nice talking to you.
VAT is honestly not an issue. Many countries in the world with better health and social outcomes have it as standard. Australia for instance, home to literally the top 2 most liveable cities in the world.
@gespilk Man you are consistent. Ill just have to follow you around the internet to correct your idiocy. You neglected to mention anyother source of income, like when automation is the prime source of manual labor (food industry, farming, retail, etc) repetive cognitive tasks (accounting, journalism, etc) money will be flowing in from everywhere then only to end up in a billionaire CEOs and their shareholders hands. A wealth tax is a ridiculous notion, we already saw how jeff bezos dodged taxs alongside uber and netflix and many more. Adding more paperwork to their list is just a couple more hoops to jump through VAT cannot be dodged becuase its fluid with the economy in every movement. From the cotton feild to the mill where its processed to the store its sold at. Aside from that- VAT tax hasnt been repealed anywhere its been implimented, whereas weath tax has been repealed in (your gona love this) Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Italy, the Netherlands and Sweden. So please get off of Andrew Yangs dick.
You can tell he's a good candidate when every comment section on his videos isn't a decrepit cancer pit. Everyone gets along. He's already bringing us together!
Very happy to see interviewers ask questions that reach beyond the obvious Freedom Dividend subject. It's understandable why that would be such a hot topic, but if the man has well over 100 policies, it's nice to actually hear someone ask about them once in a while.
He has a lot of chances to ttack abour things outside of his big idea. He has a lot of decent climate change policies, when asked about Climate Change on a debate, he went to UBI instead of the other 5 policies. He chooses what he talks about and he chooses to only talk about "freedom dividend"
Did you watch the full 30-minute Town Hall from CNN, and the full 60-minute climate crisis talk from MSNBC? If so, you might remember him discussing Democracy Dollars, reforesting, thorium-based energy on the path to clean renewables, the American Score Card, and programs for people affected by climate displacement. He speaks often about the dividend (one of his 3 primary policies) for the same reason people often ask about it. Because it's a powerful idea for which many people have understandable questions. But if that's all you hear from him, I'd encourage you to look more into him. You might be surprised by what you hear.
Krystal is the most responsible journalist I’ve heard, she’s always dope. She calls out msnbc, corporate media, and centrists all the time, and has interesting takes that you’d usually never heard on the news
Argh. I love him so much that I'm getting frustrated at the fact that his voice isn't reaching everyone yet. He must be in the White House. It can't be anyone else.
He's not my pick, but I do agree he should in the White House. Andrew Yang would make a good Secretary of the Treasury for a Bernie Sanders administration. Still, I see why people like him and it's bullshit the mainstream media dismisses him. Even though I don't support him, I hope he's one of the last to drop out after the likes of Klobuchar, O’Rourke, Buttigieg and Harris are gone. He's probably my second choice after Bernie.
We're in an echo chamber from the YT algos. I go pretty deep in the Yang rabbit hole sometimes and run into vids that are less than positive on Yang and majority comments are negative. There wasn't much comments defending Yang so I'm guessing most of us don't have it as a suggested vid.
Someone can "be in the White House" without sitting at the Resolute Desk. Maybe he'd work well as Secretary of Commerce. He'd be way better than Secretary Ross and I'm fairly sure he'd stay awake at meetings.
@@SatoshiMatrix1 thanx for being civil. Most time we see a Bernie supporter they talking shit. Most of us were Bernie supporters but think yang is a little better. Please tell your crew to stop fighting the yang and the gang and fight warren. She is the real threat. She has taken dirty money already and betrayed Bernie in 2016. Ive had yet to hear her answer a question without resorting to rambling hoping people forget aboout the question.
6:10 Andrew Yang absolutely nails it, we need to refer drug addicts to treatment, not prison cells. This is one of the reasons I went from Bernie 2016 to #Yang2020
WOW he brought me to tears when he talked about people with drug ađictions. I believe he can and will deliver his promises when he becomes our best president. I can't wait!
It's wonderful to have someone like Andrew Yang on the Democratic ticket. This push for action and progressive ideas is refreshing, especially given the current regime in the White House.
Dang you guys get a lot done in 30 minutes. Great job Krystal and Andrew. I especially like that you're pushing in different directions from most interviews and getting into substance (though, of course, you can only push so hard in 30 minutes). Good to see Andrew also learning about issues while on the trail. I hope that continues. While the core message is solid, he also has to speak to the concerns of others while showing them a path forward.
It's used to be unimaginable that a man can be so on point about almost everything, and be running for President. I have never voted because their has never been a candidate who wasn't full of BS. This will be the first time I vote in my 15 years of being an adult.
Every talk that he is in goes straight to every individual to better themselves. It's about realisation of dreams and goes to the roots of what living is all about. If we cannot go deep into our inner passion to strive in this world, why are we here in the first place.... a future president that motivates not just for the Americans but the messages are worldly. Being the leader of a power house, he is the best bet for world peace and through it, a sense of appreciating own's identity. I do hope his ascent will see a better tomorrow. All the best in your campaign...
Gabriel Ong: "every individal to better themselves"--this is a libertarian trope-- just can't happen without support from the surrounding community. Yang won't say it, but we are in an existential CLASS STRUGGLE and too many refuse to see it. Bernie sees it and says it. Does Yang want to fundamentally change the SYSTEM under which so many of us suffer? No he doesn't. He wants to make it kinder and gentler sort of like Warren does.
To my African -American Yang Gang friends, what can Andrew Yang do to convince the African-American voters to drop Joe Biden and join the Yang Gang? Yang really needs the black votes to get into office.
One thing that Yang didn't mention here that that a VAT actually KEEPS MONEY IN THIS COUNTRY rather than moving it through places like Ireland. It was a compelling argument. If you are an international company, you are always looking for who can give you the best advantage in terms of running funds. A VAT says, you do business with Americans, you pay a tiny sliver to do business here. They already do it in Europe and Yang is only proposing 1/2 of the European VAT.
Tabitha Marsh that’s right if it’s the wealth tax or income tax rich people will simply move their assets and money around, transfer it to companies and trusts in the British Virgin Island or Ireland or Luxembourg or Cayman Islands. It’s very difficult to locate the money.
And can you imagine what an increase in minimum wage would do to these small shop owners? Amazon will invest in more robots to save money on labor while small shops are pushed further to the edge with even thinner margins to compete with Amazon.
@@namkoong80 To be fair, an increase in the minimum wage also means a lot more consumer spending because the poor and middle class spends more of their money proportionally than the rich. Amazon drives small and even larger businesses to go bankrupt because people want their products cheap and most importantly online fast shipping which is more convenient. Amazon has hit large corporations hard and drove out small businesses. The robot component of Amazon had very little impact of why Amazon is screwing everyone so far. I would agree that it will become more important in the future though. A minimum wage increase does not hurt small businesses as the example of Seattle and numerous 15$ minimum wage states as well as numerous studies. It actually helps them because they get more revenue. We should be doing UBI, FJG and raising the minimum wage.
if yang is elected he will try to create an environment where people like him will actually choose to teach at high schools instead of going for CEO positions, right now u'll never see it because it just isn't worth it, scandinavian countries are very good examples though of creating an incentive based environment that allows people who want to teach, to teach without losing out on anything, mostly money, but also other things, like social security etc
Yes, he is finally using the "foundation for a house" metaphor!!!! Just like the foundation of a house, we can't live on foundation alone. A house with only a foundation is useless. You still need walls and windows and doors and everything else that makes a house, a house. However, without a solid foundation a house is just at risk to fall apart at the slightest of disturbances, in this case, an economic disturbance of a surprise $400 bill. We need to build a solid foundation for the American families so that the middle class is solid and strong. However, it is not just economically strong but strong in community, family unit, and strong of heart and spirit. Right now the middle class is beyond struggling and we see this across the board. We may say we are all "doing great" but in all honesty the American family is struggling. There is a reason why "the struggle is real" is a legit meme because that is the hard truth. It's time to rewrite the rules for us, for the American people, for the American middle class. We don't need lip service. We need solutions.
Do that, and you will be doing a favor for a hell of a lot more people than just Americans. This man has a set of ideas that can fix capitalism itself.
I love Andrew Yang. I am still huge Bernie supporter but I’ve been following Andrew since 2016 and I really love his thinking. His ideas are going to be copied by a lot of politicians just like a lot of them have copied Bernie’s ideas. Only those politicians that are not afraid to think outside the box and present big bold progressive ideas that work for the people are the only ones that will be supported. Big Big Big fan. Great interview as always Krystal brings it out. Big fan of Krystal.
I cannot fathom how progressive pundits on this site routinely criticize Yang as not being progressive enough. Yang would be the most progressive, transformative force that the government has seen since FDR
Agreed, and add in Tulsi as well. They don’t deserve the scorn they have received from corporate media, that’s what you sign up for when you decide to change the status quo.
Yang is not wrong about the wealth tax. A VAT is impossible to avoid and is paid at every level of a product or service production. Even Amazon pushed for a national tax years ago before the states threatened them with their respective sales tax.
Correct and how many companies would with a push of a button be headquartered in another country avoiding a tax completely. A VAT they can't avoid if they want to sell to the largest buying consumers in the world the US
I still want the wealth tax tho. If the rich are gonna cry over 2cents, we must get the damn 2cents. These progressive policies are not mutually exclusive.
@@TCt83067695 It will probably have to happen because of the deficit but not the highest priority...Yang wants to start helping all Americans first...its like the foundation of a house...the rest will come...getting things passed universally appealing then from a podition of power get the less political dividing policies done
@@TCt83067695 they will find ways to hide their money in different shell corporations in order to avoid it. It's not hard to see that they will have a team of lawyers and accountants to figure this all out.
For anyone who wants this man to be president, do the easy task of sharing this video to your Facebook. This video will not be seen by many people who haven't yet heard of yang yet. So we can make sure the video gets out of the yanggang bubble.
i wish other bernie supporters would realize how aligned him and yang are and see that yang is infinitely better at communicating problems and solutions
I do but anecdotally I see yang Supporters bashing Bernie just to promote Yang. I don't see why that is when they are when Bernie and Yang are really people powered and on our side.
Pierre Jean i support both heavily i think the animosity started after a lot of bernie supporters started parroting sam seders "libertarian trojan horse" bs and yang supporters trying to fight back but both sides are guilty. i believe most of yangs support is made up of defected bernie supporters so many of us see the appeal of bernie and are happy when he does well.
Mainstream media should watch and learn. The content discussion and integrity of answers by Andrew are top quality and he is very clear how he would undertake each problem
I love how he always says “the reality is..”. He does not sugar coat or pad his policies or beliefs to appease. He’s a gift from heaven and if the world pass this gift up, we’ll be in a shithole until we all die. A man like this comes along only once in a lifetime.
So refreshing to hear someone pushing innovative ideas on moving America and its citizens forward and not preaching about endless wars and weapons sales.
Wow again Krystal, an interview with highest professionalism! You are very smart, asking the rights questions with real facts on the the ground, then let Andrew answer the questions uninterrupted,... at one point Andrew as was the one who interrupted Krystal, that had to be a major slip on AY's part. Lol Let that sink in for a minute, Andrew interrupting the interviewer, instead of the other way around, right? Unheard of! Lol Btw, I didn't know Krystal wrote a book on UBI, that's cool! Are we looking at the future WH comm. director, here? Am I the only one?👍👍👍
I have been a Bernie guy for a while now but damn. Yang calmly lays out his plan. He has great ideas. I really didn’t know much about Yang but lately I have been watching videos with him on. I think I will have to switch over to Yang from Bernie.
Andrew is on point with the issues of wealth tax. Valuation of assets for which the wealth tax will be applied is a nightmare. Think of asking Trump to value all of his wealth. He'll hire a valuation expert to say his assets are worth less than their true value, government will need a massive bureacracy to do their own valuation. There will be disputes, and our courts will be flooded with lawsuits. A nightmare to implement. VAT will be better way more efficient. Yang literally considers efficiency when he design his policies.
Andrew Yang is a true Revolutionist and we all better get on board and elect this man before we all miss out. BTW, let's vote for his policies and his youthful age.
I love the Hill, but can they just please upload all the parts at once hahaha, I need my fix of Andrew Yang content with Krystal Ball, who is actually informed on the issues and knows how to ask the important questions that adequately clarifies Andrew's stance on the matter without necessarily favoring him over any other candidate. My favorite media personality in the game for sure. Rising is definitely on the rise!
we need each candidate to talk more their policies that will affect us. It will be great to have many town hall meetings that include Sander, Warren, and Yang and the public. We need more data points and discussions to judge .
Anyone that recognizes my icon knows I'm usually pretty hard on the Hill and their fake guest a lot. But I must say, I'm in no political party nor side, never have been I'm an original independent voter that has never wavered. In saying that the Yang guy seems to be the most realistic, sincere, no bull shitting type of guy that I could actually think about voting for. I wasn't plan on voting at all this time around again until I watched pt.1 of the Yang interview yesterday and now this. Thank you Krystal for exposing him to me, I had no idea!
Watch the Ben Shapiro interview with Yang (yes - Ben Shapiro!). Andrew Yang is masterful and that's how you do an interview with someone on the opposite end of the political spectrum. It was amazing to watch.
It's powerful how the man keeps having thoughtful answers that wrap back to previously mentioned solutions. Pure factual observations about the realities on the ground and The Most articulated defense of how welfare actually works ever presented in media. Welfare has always been measured to feed directly back into the neighboring communities. Most of these dying towns around America are only hanging on because of government money, both to individuals in welfare or disability type payments as well as to the actual counties and state government organizations. We need to stop fucking lying. Our GDP is held up, largely, by our military industrial complex that is also fed with half our tax money. We're socialized as fuck but keep acting like orphan billionaires with their stupid bootstraps, boxing God with gloves too small.
One of my favorite Yang lines was during the climate townhall that NBC did where he was talking about GDP and how when a hurricane hits, it looks good for GDP because suddenly there is a surge in spending to rebuild. Seems like GDP is a crappy way to measure the US. I'm glad he wants to change it.
Doesnt help if you call every other nomanee supporter dumb. One thing i personally dont like about Yang is the fact that he does not openly adresses the problem of corrupted goverment, cooperations and media. This is, in my view, a major issue that touches every policy of his agenda. If not resolved or adressed enough, nothing will change. No written policy stand any chance of getting somewhere .. connet this dot and you have me on board. Tulsi, in my view, is the best chance for real change. Not Yang.
damienlabenz I’ve heard him speak about government corruption many times. The Democracy Dollars proposal is his main policy to very efficiently wash out lobbyists money and end the ties they have to politicians.
@@laheil3373 lets be honest here sir. DD was suggested by someone else and its a good solution. i agree. that he adopted as one of his policies is a good thing. what iam talking about is that Yang as a progressive, and you see this in allot of platforms where he gives speeches and interviews, has an obligation in my view to the people to tell the truth and adress major issues. He does not do this on this very important issue witch is corruption. Give me a link to 1 interview where you can show me wrong on the toppic of corruption? You cant sadly. As an example: Yang says continiously that we have Trump in office bc of automation, disregarding the facts that took place during the elections of 2016. The rigged primary, the leaks of emails of the PC Hillary, shown how corrupt our goverment, media and Coop are, influencing everything to serve their agenda and to my view doing their best stopping progressives getting any platform and thus a chance off implementing anything. Doing so by commiting fraud, propaganda and obstructions of law to hinder anyone that does not serve their interrest to become a nominee. This shows me that Yang either is not as smart has he thinks he is, witch i dont think is the case, there for he must have a dubble agenda and thats why i dont trust him.
Sorry uncle Bernie and Biden need to retire and let the younger and individuals who understand today's technology and conditions lead. Old politics need to step aside.
@@NEILANIL1 Dropping Bernie in with Biden is ridiculous. Bernie's sharp as a tack and listens to people. Joe has nothing of value to offer at all. He's not interested in working people and he's losing his marbles day by day. Love Andrew, though. I wish he'd get better treatment from the dolts in MSM. I'm a Bernie supporter because he knows exactly who and what he's up against, but Andrew Yang is vital to the current discourse and should definitely be in the next Administration. I wish him and his campaign the very best.
I see a couple flaws with a wealth tax. Most Multimillion/billion/trillionaires have much of their wealth tied to their businesses, real estate, etc. It's illiquid money that fluctuates in value. Who is responsible to value how much a business is worth? Secondly if 2$ on every dollar over 50 million is taxed, couples can get divorced and each keep 50 million, they could also "gift" their children the same amount. A wealth tax is good in theory, but the top .01% are fantastic when it comes to evading taxes. Not practical IMO.
Not worth it. TYT Ana is a dimwit and anyone with a brain cell should immediately dismiss anything that comes out of her mouth. I often think she is there just to make Cenk look better. Stick a stupid person next to Cenk and he's looking like Socrates.
M K she just came out and said she’s a bernie supporter, which is fine. Support who ever you want but don’t bring in some clown to shit on other candidates with misinformation.

Man this guy won me over. I was supporting Bernie but I think this guy has a better understanding of new issues facing our country.

Yo voto por el chino
SO intelligent and focused on what SHOULD matter in this society! As a mental health professional, Andrew Yang makes the most sense of anyone. I love the changes he wants to implement in our government so it TRULY takes care of it's citizens. Go, YANG!!!!
Man Andrew is hitting home run, after home run! LETS GOOOOOOOO!
@gespilk More like Yang's UBI is: Your beer is taken from you and the dividend takes a bit of that and gives it back. Wealth UBI is people with a few beers give a portion of their beer, but don't exactly want to so you say you only have 1 beer.
gespilk The way I understand it. A consumption tax (VAT) is superior to a wealth tax because once someone has made there millions or billions of dollars it is theres and very hard to take back. This idea is kind of new to me as well. Why don’t we just tax rich people? Well I guess it’s like once you buy a car it’s yours. OR LIKE when you buy a case of BEER it’s yours, you can share that beer with others if you want or you can drink it all yourself it’s your choice. If however before you buy that case of beer you are aware that one bottle will go to help another American get drunk you might say “ya sure it’s for the better good go ahead.” And others would say “ how Bret Kavanaugh of you. Thank you!” Now let’s say you have 2,000,000 cases of beer, and the government says “ you must give a percentage of your beer to others”, you would say “of course, I have more beer than I can ever drink, of course I’ll share.” Well unfortunately there are a lot of pricks who don’t think that way and never will. So before they buy other case of beer you let them know that 10% goes to get the rest of us drunk! Any way that’s what I think the difference is. Nice talking to you.
VAT is honestly not an issue. Many countries in the world with better health and social outcomes have it as standard. Australia for instance, home to literally the top 2 most liveable cities in the world.
@gespilk Man you are consistent. Ill just have to follow you around the internet to correct your idiocy. You neglected to mention anyother source of income, like when automation is the prime source of manual labor (food industry, farming, retail, etc) repetive cognitive tasks (accounting, journalism, etc) money will be flowing in from everywhere then only to end up in a billionaire CEOs and their shareholders hands. A wealth tax is a ridiculous notion, we already saw how jeff bezos dodged taxs alongside uber and netflix and many more. Adding more paperwork to their list is just a couple more hoops to jump through VAT cannot be dodged becuase its fluid with the economy in every movement. From the cotton feild to the mill where its processed to the store its sold at. Aside from that- VAT tax hasnt been repealed anywhere its been implimented, whereas weath tax has been repealed in (your gona love this) Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Italy, the Netherlands and Sweden. So please get off of Andrew Yangs dick.
You can tell he's a good candidate when every comment section on his videos isn't a decrepit cancer pit. Everyone gets along. He's already bringing us together!
Very happy to see interviewers ask questions that reach beyond the obvious Freedom Dividend subject. It's understandable why that would be such a hot topic, but if the man has well over 100 policies, it's nice to actually hear someone ask about them once in a while.
He has a lot of chances to ttack abour things outside of his big idea.
He has a lot of decent climate change policies, when asked about Climate Change on a debate, he went to UBI instead of the other 5 policies. He chooses what he talks about and he chooses to only talk about "freedom dividend"
Did you watch the full 30-minute Town Hall from CNN, and the full 60-minute climate crisis talk from MSNBC? If so, you might remember him discussing Democracy Dollars, reforesting, thorium-based energy on the path to clean renewables, the American Score Card, and programs for people affected by climate displacement. He speaks often about the dividend (one of his 3 primary policies) for the same reason people often ask about it. Because it's a powerful idea for which many people have understandable questions. But if that's all you hear from him, I'd encourage you to look more into him. You might be surprised by what you hear.
Krystal is the most responsible journalist I’ve heard, she’s always dope. She calls out msnbc, corporate media, and centrists all the time, and has interesting takes that you’d usually never heard on the news
I was hoping she would ask about all the problems with the VAT tax.
@@misternightstar You sir, are an MVP.
Argh. I love him so much that I'm getting frustrated at the fact that his voice isn't reaching everyone yet. He must be in the White House. It can't be anyone else.
He's an extremely logical individual with concrete ideas and solutions. Only thing we can do is spread his message as much as possible
He's not my pick, but I do agree he should in the White House. Andrew Yang would make a good Secretary of the Treasury for a Bernie Sanders administration. Still, I see why people like him and it's bullshit the mainstream media dismisses him. Even though I don't support him, I hope he's one of the last to drop out after the likes of Klobuchar, O’Rourke, Buttigieg and Harris are gone. He's probably my second choice after Bernie.
We're in an echo chamber from the YT algos. I go pretty deep in the Yang rabbit hole sometimes and run into vids that are less than positive on Yang and majority comments are negative. There wasn't much comments defending Yang so I'm guessing most of us don't have it as a suggested vid.
Someone can "be in the White House" without sitting at the Resolute Desk. Maybe he'd work well as Secretary of Commerce. He'd be way better than Secretary Ross and I'm fairly sure he'd stay awake at meetings.
@@SatoshiMatrix1 thanx for being civil. Most time we see a Bernie supporter they talking shit. Most of us were Bernie supporters but think yang is a little better. Please tell your crew to stop fighting the yang and the gang and fight warren. She is the real threat. She has taken dirty money already and betrayed Bernie in 2016. Ive had yet to hear her answer a question without resorting to rambling hoping people forget aboout the question.
6:10 Andrew Yang absolutely nails it, we need to refer drug addicts to treatment, not prison cells. This is one of the reasons I went from Bernie 2016 to #Yang2020
WOW he brought me to tears when he talked about people with drug ađictions. I believe he can and will deliver his promises when he becomes our best president. I can't wait!
It's wonderful to have someone like Andrew Yang on the Democratic ticket.
This push for action and progressive ideas is refreshing, especially given the current regime in the White House.
Dang you guys get a lot done in 30 minutes. Great job Krystal and Andrew. I especially like that you're pushing in different directions from most interviews and getting into substance (though, of course, you can only push so hard in 30 minutes). Good to see Andrew also learning about issues while on the trail. I hope that continues. While the core message is solid, he also has to speak to the concerns of others while showing them a path forward.
Yeah, i wish it was a proper hour long interview. I think if they had the time, Yang and Ball could have had such an awesome in-depth look at things
Andrew Yang is the best choice for the people of this country we need to support him so that he can get the job done.
It's used to be unimaginable that a man can be so on point about almost everything, and be running for President. I have never voted because their has never been a candidate who wasn't full of BS. This will be the first time I vote in my 15 years of being an adult.

I'm with You ! #YangGang
YANG2020!!!
Welcome!! YangGang2020
Every talk that he is in goes straight to every individual to better themselves. It's about realisation of dreams and goes to the roots of what living is all about. If we cannot go deep into our inner passion to strive in this world, why are we here in the first place.... a future president that motivates not just for the Americans but the messages are worldly. Being the leader of a power house, he is the best bet for world peace and through it, a sense of appreciating own's identity. I do hope his ascent will see a better tomorrow. All the best in your campaign...
and sadly, then there's trump we have to deal with beforehand.
Gabriel Ong: "every individal to better themselves"--this is a libertarian trope-- just can't happen without support from the surrounding community. Yang won't say it, but we are in an existential CLASS STRUGGLE and too many refuse to see it. Bernie sees it and says it. Does Yang want to fundamentally change the SYSTEM under which so many of us suffer? No he doesn't. He wants to make it kinder and gentler sort of like Warren does.
Look at our guy Andrew Yang uniting the comment section once again! #Yang2020
He has a knack for that.
Our man Andrew is everywhere rn!

To my African -American Yang Gang friends, what can Andrew Yang do to convince the African-American voters to drop Joe Biden and join the Yang Gang? Yang really needs the black votes to get into office.
I'm a black American and im Voting for #andrewyang2020
My wife, my sister and my mother are voting for him as well :)
I’m a Bernie guy but, I like Yang a lot! It’s a good thing he’s on those debate stages!
Push for Bernie to prioritize and support a UBI and he would win in a landslide.
Or convert to the YangGang and take your Bernie brothers with you.
Yang/Bernie ticket would be the most progressive in American history with an actual shot of winning and changing our political future.
Keep em coming - we all need a daily dose of Yang 👍
One thing that Yang didn't mention here that that a VAT actually KEEPS MONEY IN THIS COUNTRY rather than moving it through places like Ireland. It was a compelling argument. If you are an international company, you are always looking for who can give you the best advantage in terms of running funds. A VAT says, you do business with Americans, you pay a tiny sliver to do business here. They already do it in Europe and Yang is only proposing 1/2 of the European VAT.
Tabitha Marsh that’s right if it’s the wealth tax or income tax rich people will simply move their assets and money around, transfer it to companies and trusts in the British Virgin Island or Ireland or Luxembourg or Cayman Islands. It’s very difficult to locate the money.

Only if he ends the warmongering American empire.
My friend Surf Water Sports Shop shut down because of Amazon this is real guys.
I'm sorry to hear that 😔.
And can you imagine what an increase in minimum wage would do to these small shop owners? Amazon will invest in more robots to save money on labor while small shops are pushed further to the edge with even thinner margins to compete with Amazon.
@@namkoong80 To be fair, an increase in the minimum wage also means a lot more consumer spending because the poor and middle class spends more of their money proportionally than the rich. Amazon drives small and even larger businesses to go bankrupt because people want their products cheap and most importantly online fast shipping which is more convenient. Amazon has hit large corporations hard and drove out small businesses. The robot component of Amazon had very little impact of why Amazon is screwing everyone so far. I would agree that it will become more important in the future though. A minimum wage increase does not hurt small businesses as the example of Seattle and numerous 15$ minimum wage states as well as numerous studies. It actually helps them because they get more revenue. We should be doing UBI, FJG and raising the minimum wage.
@@namkoong80 Break up Amazon! Problem solved. (You don't remember the breaking up of Ma Bell, do you.)
@AJ Alvarez just out of curiosity, for how long did your friend had that shop?

i wish he was my teacher for every subject in high school
I wish he was every politician in every government everywhere ever
Wholesome
if yang is elected he will try to create an environment where people like him will actually choose to teach at high schools instead of going for CEO positions, right now u'll never see it because it just isn't worth it,
scandinavian countries are very good examples though of creating an incentive based environment that allows people who want to teach, to teach without losing out on anything, mostly money, but also other things, like social security etc
@@entengummitiger1576??? But, the world is run by people exactly like Yang...Neoliberals
That would be called brainwashing. You need to hear opposing ideas to develop a healthy, rational mind.
Yes, he is finally using the "foundation for a house" metaphor!!!!
Just like the foundation of a house, we can't live on foundation alone. A house with only a foundation is useless. You still need walls and windows and doors and everything else that makes a house, a house. However, without a solid foundation a house is just at risk to fall apart at the slightest of disturbances, in this case, an economic disturbance of a surprise $400 bill.
We need to build a solid foundation for the American families so that the middle class is solid and strong. However, it is not just economically strong but strong in community, family unit, and strong of heart and spirit. Right now the middle class is beyond struggling and we see this across the board. We may say we are all "doing great" but in all honesty the American family is struggling. There is a reason why "the struggle is real" is a legit meme because that is the hard truth.
It's time to rewrite the rules for us, for the American people, for the American middle class. We don't need lip service. We need solutions.
Do that, and you will be doing a favor for a hell of a lot more people than just Americans. This man has a set of ideas that can fix capitalism itself.
I love Andrew Yang. I am still huge Bernie supporter but I’ve been following Andrew since 2016 and I really love his thinking. His ideas are going to be copied by a lot of politicians just like a lot of them have copied Bernie’s ideas. Only those politicians that are not afraid to think outside the box and present big bold progressive ideas that work for the people are the only ones that will be supported. Big Big Big fan. Great interview as always Krystal brings it out. Big fan of Krystal.

I cannot fathom how progressive pundits on this site routinely criticize Yang as not being progressive enough.
Yang would be the most progressive, transformative force that the government has seen since FDR
Low bar, but true. If LBJ wasn’t responsible for Vietnam he’d be in the conversation too.
CarpeDonnelly that’s what I keep saying. Particularly with UBI, and decriminalizing opiates, Yang is more progressive than Bernie.
@@Menace__ your wrong

@@m00nBB Even Bernie says we're not ready for Yang's policies. He really is.
I can't get enough of this guy:) I wish my podcast was bigger so I could have him on haha
He'd probably still do it, man. He's trying to reach EVERYONE.
Bernie and Yang are by far the best candidates..
I agree. Just add Gabbard in there.
Agreed, and add in Tulsi as well. They don’t deserve the scorn they have received from corporate media, that’s what you sign up for when you decide to change the status quo.
Yang is not wrong about the wealth tax. A VAT is impossible to avoid and is paid at every level of a product or service production. Even Amazon pushed for a national tax years ago before the states threatened them with their respective sales tax.
Correct and how many companies would with a push of a button be headquartered in another country avoiding a tax completely. A VAT they can't avoid if they want to sell to the largest buying consumers in the world the US
I still want the wealth tax tho. If the rich are gonna cry over 2cents, we must get the damn 2cents.
These progressive policies are not mutually exclusive.
@@TCt83067695 It will probably have to happen because of the deficit but not the highest priority...Yang wants to start helping all Americans first...its like the foundation of a house...the rest will come...getting things passed universally appealing then from a podition of power get the less political dividing policies done
Case in point: trump forced a supreme court justice to stop California from requiring his tax records to be placed on the ballot.
@@TCt83067695 they will find ways to hide their money in different shell corporations in order to avoid it. It's not hard to see that they will have a team of lawyers and accountants to figure this all out.
Wow, part 3! Keep it coming.
Thanks for bringing up the Portugal model!!
Yang is the best of all the candidates hands down.
For anyone who wants this man to be president, do the easy task of sharing this video to your Facebook. This video will not be seen by many people who haven't yet heard of yang yet. So we can make sure the video gets out of the yanggang bubble.
i wish other bernie supporters would realize how aligned him and yang are and see that yang is infinitely better at communicating problems and solutions
I do but anecdotally I see yang Supporters bashing Bernie just to promote Yang. I don't see why that is when they are when Bernie and Yang are really people powered and on our side.
@@PJ-gx8ip i havent seen a single yang supporter bash bernie yet, im both a fan of bernie and yang
Pierre Jean i support both heavily i think the animosity started after a lot of bernie supporters started parroting sam seders "libertarian trojan horse" bs and yang supporters trying to fight back but both sides are guilty. i believe most of yangs support is made up of defected bernie supporters so many of us see the appeal of bernie and are happy when he does well.
Bernie is the man but he doesn’t ever lay out realistic plans. I hope yang gets the ticket and bern as VP.
Pierre Jean Yeah I’ve legit seen not one yang supporter bashing on sanders.
This was an excellent interview. So informative. Yang is simply the most rational and clear-headed candidate around.
Great interview! I haven't heard him talk on all of these subjects. 👍👍
have you seen joe rogan and H3 prodcast with Andrew Yang? that's good interview.
@@GeorgeFu555 no but I'll check it out! Thanks!
I have to wait for a part 3? Krystal! You're tearing me a part!!!
Mainstream media should watch and learn. The content discussion and integrity of answers by Andrew are top quality and he is very clear how he would undertake each problem
21st century solutions to 21st century problems.
25th century solutions to 21st century problems*
(this is a good think btw lol)
Putting the Yang gang to the test by splitting up this video!
I love how he always says “the reality is..”. He does not sugar coat or pad his policies or beliefs to appease. He’s a gift from heaven and if the world pass this gift up, we’ll be in a shithole until we all die. A man like this comes along only once in a lifetime.
So refreshing to hear someone pushing innovative ideas on moving America and its citizens forward and not preaching about endless wars and weapons sales.
Wow again Krystal, an interview with highest professionalism! You are very smart, asking the rights questions with real facts on the the ground, then let Andrew answer the questions uninterrupted,... at one point Andrew as was the one who interrupted Krystal, that had to be a major slip on AY's part. Lol Let that sink in for a minute, Andrew interrupting the interviewer, instead of the other way around, right? Unheard of! Lol
Btw, I didn't know Krystal wrote a book on UBI, that's cool! Are we looking at the future WH comm. director, here? Am I the only one?👍👍👍
I waited all night for this.. Yes!
I have been a Bernie guy for a while now but damn. Yang calmly lays out his plan. He has great ideas. I really didn’t know much about Yang but lately I have been watching videos with him on. I think I will have to switch over to Yang from Bernie.
End the failed war on drugs! Decriminalize all drugs and give addicts treatment!
Andrew is on point with the issues of wealth tax. Valuation of assets for which the wealth tax will be applied is a nightmare. Think of asking Trump to value all of his wealth. He'll hire a valuation expert to say his assets are worth less than their true value, government will need a massive bureacracy to do their own valuation. There will be disputes, and our courts will be flooded with lawsuits. A nightmare to implement. VAT will be better way more efficient. Yang literally considers efficiency when he design his policies.
Yeah, imagine trying to put value on Melania's wardrobe or women's shoes in general.
Ugh u guys r killing me with these parts. I need the whole interview!
At any rate, plz keep it coming this interview is great!!
Andrew Yang is a true Revolutionist and we all better get on board and elect this man before we all miss out. BTW, let's vote for his policies and his youthful age.
I love the Hill, but can they just please upload all the parts at once hahaha, I need my fix of Andrew Yang content with Krystal Ball, who is actually informed on the issues and knows how to ask the important questions that adequately clarifies Andrew's stance on the matter without necessarily favoring him over any other candidate. My favorite media personality in the game for sure. Rising is definitely on the rise!
Thank you for this great interview!! Andrew Yang gives me hope! #MyPresident #Yang2020
we need each candidate to talk more their policies that will affect us. It will be great to have many town hall meetings that include Sander, Warren, and Yang and the public. We need more data points and discussions to judge .
How about a Yang/Ball ticket?!?!?!? All the way to the White House, baby!
Mind & Qi are One She will be his Press Secretary or Director of Communications!
Ball supports Sanders
@Dalton Taylor she supports ubi but she's a sanders supporter. He's got the best shot of defeating Trump bigly. I like Yang but Bernie 2020.
Anyone that recognizes my icon knows I'm usually pretty hard on the Hill and their fake guest a lot. But I must say, I'm in no political party nor side, never have been I'm an original independent voter that has never wavered. In saying that the Yang guy seems to be the most realistic, sincere, no bull shitting type of guy that I could actually think about voting for. I wasn't plan on voting at all this time around again until I watched pt.1 of the Yang interview yesterday and now this. Thank you Krystal for exposing him to me, I had no idea!

It's powerful how the man keeps having thoughtful answers that wrap back to previously mentioned solutions. Pure factual observations about the realities on the ground and The Most articulated defense of how welfare actually works ever presented in media. Welfare has always been measured to feed directly back into the neighboring communities. Most of these dying towns around America are only hanging on because of government money, both to individuals in welfare or disability type payments as well as to the actual counties and state government organizations. We need to stop fucking lying. Our GDP is held up, largely, by our military industrial complex that is also fed with half our tax money. We're socialized as fuck but keep acting like orphan billionaires with their stupid bootstraps, boxing God with gloves too small.
One of my favorite Yang lines was during the climate townhall that NBC did where he was talking about GDP and how when a hurricane hits, it looks good for GDP because suddenly there is a surge in spending to rebuild. Seems like GDP is a crappy way to measure the US. I'm glad he wants to change it.
This is awesome hes slowly gaining more coverage and respect
I go to bed and wake up thinking of Andrew yang on how gopd his ideas are..#Andreyang 2020
Good for you. Yangsters are smarter than those who just can't seem to connect the dots.
@@unchartered360 i hope they catch on soon he needs people like you to send his message
Doesnt help if you call every other nomanee supporter dumb. One thing i personally dont like about Yang is the fact that he does not openly adresses the problem of corrupted goverment, cooperations and media. This is, in my view, a major issue that touches every policy of his agenda. If not resolved or adressed enough, nothing will change. No written policy stand any chance of getting somewhere .. connet this dot and you have me on board. Tulsi, in my view, is the best chance for real change. Not Yang.
damienlabenz I’ve heard him speak about government corruption many times. The Democracy Dollars proposal is his main policy to very efficiently wash out lobbyists money and end the ties they have to politicians.
@@laheil3373 lets be honest here sir. DD was suggested by someone else and its a good solution. i agree. that he adopted as one of his policies is a good thing. what iam talking about is that Yang as a progressive, and you see this in allot of platforms where he gives speeches and interviews, has an obligation in my view to the people to tell the truth and adress major issues. He does not do this on this very important issue witch is corruption. Give me a link to 1 interview where you can show me wrong on the toppic of corruption? You cant sadly.
As an example: Yang says continiously that we have Trump in office bc of automation, disregarding the facts that took place during the elections of 2016. The rigged primary, the leaks of emails of the PC Hillary, shown how corrupt our goverment, media and Coop are, influencing everything to serve their agenda and to my view doing their best stopping progressives getting any platform and thus a chance off implementing anything. Doing so by commiting fraud, propaganda and obstructions of law to hinder anyone that does not serve their interrest to become a nominee. This shows me that Yang either is not as smart has he thinks he is, witch i dont think is the case, there for he must have a dubble agenda and thats why i dont trust him.
Bernie Yang and Tulsi should all go to the convention together. #allofus
They have the potential to unite the country!

Sorry uncle Bernie and Biden need to retire and let the younger and individuals who understand today's technology and conditions lead. Old politics need to step aside.

I'm a Bernie supporter because he knows exactly who and what he's up against, but Andrew Yang is vital to the current discourse and should definitely be in the next Administration.

"Had us in the first half, not gonna lie..."
Wow it is so great to hear someone have clear answers and have a good discussion.
I see a couple flaws with a wealth tax. Most Multimillion/billion/trillionaires have much of their wealth tied to their businesses, real estate, etc. It's illiquid money that fluctuates in value. Who is responsible to value how much a business is worth? Secondly if 2$ on every dollar over 50 million is taxed, couples can get divorced and each keep 50 million, they could also "gift" their children the same amount. A wealth tax is good in theory, but the top .01% are fantastic when it comes to evading taxes. Not practical IMO.
Every time I listen to him speak I am inspired for the future.
Best stance on drugs because it’s all knotted up in many ways.
*I wish she asks him about the fallacies in TYT's Ana smear video of him* !!!
Not worth it. TYT Ana is a dimwit and anyone with a brain cell should immediately dismiss anything that comes out of her mouth. I often think she is there just to make Cenk look better. Stick a stupid person next to Cenk and he's looking like Socrates.
TYT is a distraction. Yang should focus on communicating his message to the people.
