vote Andrew Yang
Andrew Yang 2020! The Freedom Dividend is the simplest, most elegant way we can remedy all of the issues this country is experiencing.
So well said ,"most elegant way we can remedy all of the issues this country is experiencing".Reading his book spells it out in depth as to what he has been speaking of.What a great discussion with Susan Herman, Cenk Uygur and the next president Andrew Yang!
Nicely said , it affects so many different facet's . And that's just one policy !!!!
rubes
Yeah, I want my $1000 a month basic income! Yang 2020 😃
I'm sure you do.
4:45 yang starts
Ahh, that's where his famous pose comes from lol.
@@kanger80 OMG THAT'S IT LOLOLOL
@@kanger80 Actually, probably more 8:32, 8:33....

Andrew just gave you a reasonable financial solution and you’re still trying to pull the “Democrats are good Republicans are bad” crap? 🙄
Great point, Ismail. Andrew does not DIVIDE, but Cenk will . . . MSM can't help it. Not even the minor players : (
Yang looks like hes been awake for 72 hours straight. And talks like a man who has been alive for 72 decades. Yang 2020 baby
Pretty blatant lie, Bernie is not supporting a Universal Basic Income. Strange and concerning how Cenk is so dismissive or patronizing of Yang and the UBI idea. #Yang2020
I lost any trust in Cenk long, long ago...
Yeah I think his policy was more on guaranteed federal jobs for every citizen. Like if you want to work the government will always have work for you, it might be a janitor or some job you wouldn’t necessarily like though.
@@Theegoaat True.
UBI is better than free College. Because College is a waste of money anyway
i would like to disagree with that. college does help a lot of people but also left a lot in debt. but to say college is "completely" useless and waste of money is too harsh. I rather have option to go to college or spend money elsewhere to pursue different careers where college couldn't help
Yeah I totally agree with you
Fionán. For the most part, I believe that college is so disengaging and ends up stifling people's creativity. Being creative is an essential tool for figuring out what you actually want to do for a living and, working towards that productive future.
Although I catch your point and consider UBI the better policy alternative compared to free college, I think it depends on how you look at college. If you look at it purely from a potential income perspective, then it's not the sure deal it once used to be. If you look at it from an intellectual enrichment perspective (a luxury these days it seems), then it may appear more as an investment.
thanh nguyen Pretty much anything you’d go to college to learn as an undergrad, or even a master’s, you can now easily learn online in half the time. Sites like Khan Academy, Skillshare, Udemy, Udacity, Coursera, Edx, etc. are offering high-quality classes for a fraction of the cost of a college degree. All you need to do is take a gap year, learn a skillset, put together a portfolio along with your CV and you’re good to go. I personally know way more people getting jobs that way than people with degrees getting jobs right out of college (none). Unless you’re becoming a doctor or a lawyer, college really isn’t necessary nowadays.
College is not a waste, you those chose classes and did not take advantage of what College had to offer.
I don’t like how Cenk is talking to Yang. He sounds very condescending 😒
I hate TYT Cenk. Clickbait, smartass, condescending, etcetera. Wouldnt watch this if Yang wasnt partaking.
he's generally a very condescending man...
Cenk is known for being condescending and sanctimonious. Most progressives behave the same actually.
Yang sees the iceberg of automation that has hit and will hit harder let's start talking about it!
Cenk said Bernie Sanders has already sponsored legislation that supports a universal basic income. I have searched the Internet but cannot find anything to corroborate this. Does anyone have a link to confirm this clam? I did find a 2016 video where Bernie was asked if he supported UBI and he said it was an “ideal” and a good one but America was not ready for it. Other sources suggested Bernie was warm to the idea, but nothing mentioned any legislation being supported. I am also very warm to the UBI idea and the more I study it, the more I agree with Mr. Yang. Thx.
David Bay Cenk is wrong. Bernie is working on job / job training guarantee. Definitely NOT UBI
This is because Cenk is a liar in almost every facet
Right and if he did, he would still be pushing $15/hr? Makes no sense. Bernie is the boot on small businesses.
He isn't are hasn't introduced a bill for that..... The guy was lying.
Thanks David. I sure had not heard Bernie going UBI, and we've heard a LOT from Bernie. $15/hr is his thing. Government jobs for all. A different kettle of fish.
Yang clearly understands and offers sensible solutions to both old and 21st century challenges we all face today.
Yang 2020.
8:45 ya I don’t think bernie introduces any UBI legislation
Yea, I agree. I was gonna say... lol. I think Cenk is just a Bernie stan, and he oesn't like how similar/better Yang is to Bernie.
^yeah was that just bullshit? I looked it up and all I could find was Bernie's $15 minimum wage bill
"introducing legislation" does not mean crap especially if you expect it to die without even leaving committee. Just for show.
@@lankysapien3032 the point is that Cenk was lying/mistaken
Cenk just wants bernie to be the nominee so he mumbled that out to distract people away from Yang. If you look up Bernie's past regarding UBI he is very wishy washy about the subject.
7:45 (yes that’s right. You have to address the scarcity mindset. That is the driver of racism
Thanks for pointing out these issues Yang is so on top of.
10:00 what UBI legislation did bernie introduce??
Wish I knew
Matt Orfalea I think he’s talking about the jobs program
Cenk is an asshole.... Bernie never introduced legislation concerning UBI..
#Yang2020.com .....the real revolution! I donate to Andrew Yang to save America.
yang gang
If Trump had not been elected.. Yang might not have run for 2020 and implemented UBI..
Let that sink in
If we wins in 2020, you really think a majority of filthy democrats and filthy Republicans in congress are going to pass UBI?
If we win in 2020, we will also win the Senate back to the mindset of abundance and SANITY. #Yang2020
so we can see Trump is kind of villain we need to get a hero like Yang?
Trump is necesary to shake establisment Politics...
It reminds me of when dave chappelle said that "trump is the lie that would save the country"
@LᗩᑎDO LᗩᑎDhow is it theft?
You can clearly tell Cenk is backing Bernie, nothing wrong with that. But, UBI is Andrew Young thing, not Bernie. Bernie is smart enough to know that UBI is a much MUCH better strategy than raising minimum wage(more employment layoffs) or free college tuition(because college is NOT for everyone), that is why Bernie try to pass the bill. The beauty of UBI is that, it’s still NOT enough(12K a yr., is still below poverty line), you still have to work and if you’re too lazy to work, you will definitely going to have to blow all of that check in your local economy, which will benefit local business....
UBI is the way to go, let the people decide how to spend the money not the government. For too long, the government has been getting billions on programs like the massive 750 Billions we spend on military defense, which btw, more than the next ten countries below US combined.
Yang2020!
Bernie hasn't taken the time to research all that Yang has related to UBI. Cenk, Yang has done his homework, and would never undermine Bernie in an unfair/untrue comment.
Great ideas. Great video
Andrew Yang looks simple and elegant, just like his Freedom Dividend. Straightforward, grounded and razor sharp intellect. A once in generations of presidential candidates and presidents. Wow!! Make Andrew Yang your president.
Yang is extremely refreshing and UBI is by far the best solution to accomplish most progressive goals.
6:30 you can’t fight racism without fight the root cause***
Wow, Yang's really gotten better at presenting himself and his ideas. You can see he was still figuring out how to communicate here, and was slightly nervous. Yang can still improve, bet he's come a long way!
although I'm not rich, still donated him $50 and trying to support him some here and where. He is representing Asian American and the whole Asian. Give his family help while he helping us.
#Yang2020
Nuts how this was a year ago. Yang Gang originators
Cent, why are you lying? Bernie Sanders never said anything about UBI. It’s all Yang.
So that's why Cenk interview Yang so early in Dec 2018.
America have been run by the mainstream corporations and punitive government that created homelessness all around the states. And some homeless go through unimaginable suffering that needs to be address. We all been lie to by glamorous, Hollywood make ups and billionaire politicians that care less about human rights equality and freedom this is why most Americans are having trouble with their identities as an American. And no matter how much we try in terms of creating better America it just get harder and harder. Nowadays people just live day by day not knowing that time travels at the speed of light. We must wake up to 21st century and go forward instead of being trapped in the history of criminal system which is still goes on without being revealed by any means.
yang 2020 no doubt
Wow this was so early in the campaign, he's so young 🥺♥️
This must of been before Yang's "Democracy Dollars" proposal. Probably my favorite Yang policy proposal so far.
Andrew Yang will make the lives of the
working poor so much better and stop the corruption in Congress. Yang 2020.
What a Wonderful Program,I just found it.
What is this basic income legislation bernie put forward..?
When yang looks like Bruce lee xD
1. Freedom Dividend (more practical $ goes straight to citizens hands.)
2. Democracy's Dollar (more practical $ goes straight to citizens hands.)
Trickle Up Economy's
*Andrew Yang policies*
I pictured Mitt Romney raising his hand when Cenk Uygur asked who thinks corporations are people. That shocking statement by Romney that Corporations are People showed the misplaced priorities of politicians. I still can't get out of my head how stupid that sounded when Romney said that at the Iowa State Fair in 2011 when he ran for President.
That is what we call leaser focusing my man!
YANG2020.COM
That lady should stop babbling about nothing and let Yang talk more.
It’s a wage too similar to English serfdom, The people who once owned the tribal lands were invaded and the victors disenfranchised everyone on the land, this seems familiar! It is the standard operational practice of the strong and wealthy
Yang 2020!
Hmm, no mention by Andrew of his brilliant Democracy Dollars proposal which would neutralize in one shot all the lobbyists' money! Too bad Cenk took up so much time pontificating platitudes....
David Chou I was thinking that too
Was a year ago, maybe he hadn't come up with that yet?
@@bsh819 I'd be shocked if he didn't know about Democracy Dollars until relatively recently but yes it's plausible enough...though Andy's also got that sometimes-annoying habit of not seguing/pivoting into other things even though they seem quite relevant so that could be it, too, that it's just not his style to "ramble on"....
Andrew Yang is a G
How will andrew yangs ubi handle inflation? If everyone has an extra $1000 what will stop a business owners from raising prices of their goods if they know the masses can afford it?
Also cenk sounded like he was being a bit condencending towards andrew yang... Im not sure why, andrew yang makes a lot of sense.
How would you react if you went to your favorite restaurant and prices were increased unjustifiably, because of the UBI?
Is TYT is not supporting AY?
Can someone link me to Bernie's UBI proposal that Cenk mentions? I can't find it and I've done a few google searches.
Tyler Smith Federal Jobs guarantee? Hes not for UBI.
@@moazim1993 That was my understanding also. Cenk got this one wrong in the video because he says Bernie supports UBI.
Jobs guarantee is just a modernisation of the Victorian workhouses. Its been tried and it didn't work out well.
Andrew yang always unify's people in the comments, wow!!
The War on Normal People -Andrew Yang
The New Human Rights Movement -Peter Joseph

Andrew Yang for POTUS ^^b'
#yanggang #yang2020 #movingforward
I cringed when Andrew didn't talk about democracy dollars in this last segment.. damn! If you are reading this comment go to his campaign website and read his policy on democracy dollars. It's the surest way to get money out of politics and rather let citizens donate
Yang yes. TYT no.
People need to have a plan if they plan to have.
One genius and two idiots! Go Yang
I’m voting for $1,000 a month. If you’re smart you’d do the same. #YANG2020
Is Cenk running on the Dem ticket in this video? Trying to equate himself with #Yang??
Q20
👍for Yang
👎for TYT guy
Ne one is going to vote for UBI I'm congress even if he becomes president.
Oh god leave it to jank to try so hard to steer this convo into partisan bullshit. Let’s talk about issues and solutions smh
UBI_3 What Do The BEST ECONOMISTS SAY about UBI? Top Nobel Prize Level Economists ENDORSE Universal Basic Income. UBI is endorsed by winners of the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel, commonly referred to as the “economics Nobel prize”. The economists were participating in the 6th Lindau meeting on economic sciences, which ran from 22nd to 26th of June this year in the picturesque town of Lindau, Germany.
• Speaking in a panel discussion on the garden island of Mainau, Sir Chris Pissarides advocated universal basic income as a solution to the inequality that arises from both globalization and the rise of robots and AI.
- “We should not try to deal with inequality by stopping these global processes, because these have the capacity to bring more prosperity to the world,” he said. “We should welcome expansion of trade and the opening up of India and Africa, and improve R&D to bring robotics into production. After all, if there aren’t enough jobs for us all to do, we can take more leisure. We are ageing, so we can feel comfortable that machines will do more of the work that human beings currently do.” He warned that a high proportion of jobs are at risk, including skilled jobs. The social and political problems arising from automation need a policy response that doesn’t impede the march of technology. “We don’t need a new Luddite movement”, he said. “There are better ways of dealing with it.”
• In the same discussion, Daniel McFadden advocated unconditional income transfers to relieve poverty. As an example, he explained how introducing casinos in native American communities along the Rio Grande enabled them to deliver a basic income to the poor. “A lot of economists would think that was not a good thing to do,” he said. “But what happened was that child abuse dropped drastically, spousal abuse dropped drastically, crime dropped. Simply handing money to poor people was salutary. It really helped them. Being trapped in poverty, with the stress and insecurities associated with that, is progressively debilitating. Sometimes even the simplest kind of transfers can break the cycle.”
• Separately, labor economist Peter Diamond advocated universal basic income in a conversation with Steve Schifferes of City University, London. Professor Diamond, who shared the 2010 Nobel with Sir Chris Pissarides, has become increasingly concerned about income and wealth inequality in the United States, and in particular, about rising child poverty and lack of social mobility. In a recent paper, he approvingly cites Tony Atkinson's book, Inequality:
- He argues for a capital endowment, a minimum amount given to each person on reaching adulthood. And he also argues for an annual child benefit, which the United States doesn't have, but many European economies do, to help support the finances it takes to help children have better opportunities. It appears to me that these are two very interesting ideas.
• Professor Diamond notes that Thomas Paine advocated using the estate tax to provide a dividend to young people turning 21, to help them launch their careers, and to provide benefits for sick, disabled and elderly.
• But how to pay for all of this? Both Sir Chris Pissarides and Professor Diamond advocate higher taxes on high earnings. They also recommend wealth taxes, though they disagree about how these should work: Professor Diamond is strongly in favor of a well-functioning estate tax, while Sir Chris prefers capital gains taxes on property transactions, including family houses. Perhaps the strongest endorsement of wealth taxes came not come from these economists, however, but from their fellow Nobel memorial prize winner, James Heckman. Speaking on the inequality panel, Professor Heckman noted that the falling cost of capital was driving down wages. To correct this, he advocated shifting the burden of taxation to capital rather than labor.
• Universal basic income is a radical policy that requires a radical funding solution. Reform of taxation must go hand in hand with any attempt to introduce it. For most of history, labor has been abundant and capital scarce, so it made sense to tax labor more highly than capital and demand that people work for their living. But as we enter an ageing world in which capital is abundant and labor relatively scarce, it may make sense to tax capital at least as highly as labor. And if the need for humans as workers and producers declines, as Sir Chris Pissarides predicts, then some form of capital redistribution will be needed to enable the many, not just the few, to take their leisure and enjoy it.

Martin Luther King Jr. in advocating for a Guaranteed Basic Income (UBI) said,
"We are likely to find that the problems of housing and education, instead of proceeding the elimination of poverty, will themselves be affected if poverty is first abolished. The poor transformed into purchasers will do a great deal on their own to alter housing decay. Negroes, who have a double disability, will have a greater effect on discrimination when they have the additional weapon of cash to use in their struggle.
"Beyond these advantages, a host of positive psychological changes inevitably will result from widespread economic security. The dignity of the individual will flourish when the decisions concerning his life are in his own hands, when he has the assurance that his income is stable and certain, and when he knows that he has the means to seek self-improvement. Personal conflicts between husband, wife and children will diminish when the unjust measurement of human worth on a scale of dollars is eliminated."
- Martin Luther King Jr. Speaking on UBI at Stanford

I love Andrew yang, but he looks hungover in this panel
VAT is a CONSUMPTION tax paid by consumers, not business owners.
How will taxing consumers to provide those same consumers with a universal basic income work exactly?
Call it what it is.
A YAT.
Yang Added Tax.
He plans to Yangk money out of the wallets of the rich and middle class and give it to the poor who will then spend it on consumer goods.
UBI is a Universal Business Income.
Even if you say it equates to a 10% sales tax, that net benefits any one person who spends less than 120k per year or 240k for a couple. That benefits most people.
@@Electroluch
No. Taxes are theft. One group of people has a utopian vision so they tax everyone to make it happen?
The government imposes a tax on your income (the fruits of your labor) but you have no control over what you get back in return. Will the government give you value in the form of roads and schools etc. Or will the government send billions of tax payer dollars to foreign countries?
Either way you dont have a say in what is done with your money and if you refuse to pay your taxes the government will seize your assets to pay your tax liability and most likely throw you in jail.
Federal government should be cut to the bone with a corresponding reduction in income tax.
All state and local governments should be cut to the bone. Same reduction in taxes.
Let people spend as much of their hard earned money the way they see fit.
While we are at it. Get rid of the federal reserve bank. Its a scam.
@@DaveWard-xc7vd individuals do not really own money, they use it and store it and colloqueally "own it" for the surcharge we call taxation. Thats why you cant burn it legally and why countries can limit how you use their currency.
If you want to avoid that surcharge, don't use a country's markets or currency or financial infrastructure. However the taxation is theft meme is just nonsense that fails to reflect real world realities.
@@Electroluch
So people "own" money for the purpose of paying taxes?
There I was thinking that money and currency were just better ways of exchanging value for goods and services.
Money sure beats carrying a chicken under each arm.
@@Electroluch
If someone takes something you have without your permission it is theft.
Someone steals your wallet or purse you call the cops.
If politicians decide to impose a tax or raise an exsisting tax rate they are effectively taking your money without your permission which is theft.
When socialists socialize.
Not by any definition "socialism". It's capitalism that doesn't start at zero, UBI will save us from Socialism.
Wtf cenk just be honest. Bernie never mentioned the idea of ubi since he ran for 2016
Andrew sounds like Amlo of Mexico.
