First, they remove his picture out of all the candidates in the debate, then they make it impossible for the audience to hear him. He is polling at number 8 and still they only gave him TWO minutes to speak?! This is beyond gross! I am so disheartened that Seth is a part of this... : (

  • @liammurphy6439
    @liammurphy6439 4 роки тому +191

    I get that it was kind of funny that Yang said "sorry?" in response to his first question, but after the moderator repeated the question, he gave the most detailed and thoughtful answer of the whole debate. He hasn't gotten fair coverage yet, and this program's framing of his response unfortunately contributes to that because many average folk will only ever see this clip. Normally this show is good at accurately portraying a person while also being very comedic, so this is extra disappointing.

    • @shaan702
      @shaan702 4 роки тому +12

      Yang should be offering the $1000 on top of the social programs. His offer to either take the cash or the benefits is a rather unsubtle way of kicking people off of welfare programs. Also the value added tax is the one of the most regressive taxes there is. The money for a UBI should come from the top 1% exclusively. The UBI can be an effective way of reducing poverty and severe economic inequality but not the version he’s pushing. The version he’s pushing is a right wing distortion.

    • @weaselsdawg
      @weaselsdawg 4 роки тому +10

      Matt R Today I learned that charisma is defined by other people slurring questions over crowd noise. He seems charismatic enough in interviews and discussions I’ve seen, this is just a disingenuous misrepresentation of his understanding of his flagship policy. It doesn’t help that he was given, what, 2 questions? Also didn’t help that when he tried to speak later in the debate his mic had literally been cut out. Kind of ridiculous to happen in an open debate setting.

    • @mattr372
      @mattr372 4 роки тому +1

      weaselsdawg he was deer in headlights when asked the one question that he knew he was going to get. “How do you pay for the $1000 a month” I’ve heard him answer it before and he is capable of articulating the answer but on the debate stage he stumbled. The debate format is a huge challenge to overcome but they’re all on that stage together. As for how the other candidates faired I look at Tulsi Gabbard and Kamala Harris as the 2 candidates who displayed themselves with the sharpness that will be required to defeat trump.

    • @weaselsdawg

What your probably referring to is taking campaign donations from Elmendorf who has lobbied on behave of many companies such as Amazon, The American Gaming Association, etc. Elmendorf is openly gay and previously chaired the Victory Fund, which supports gay and lesbian candidates for office. It makes since that he would support the only gay candidate running. Buttigieg's campaign has had complete transparency for every donation. He's not hiding any dark money and there is no evidence that any donation has had an impact on any of his decisions. Running for President as a mid-sized city mayor instead of a Senator who had been building up a warchest for years has many disadvantages. I personally don't see a problem with him trying to even the playing field. He hasn't been corrupted by the Washington machine like so many others who have been toiling away year after year in that corrupt sandbox. I'm more hesitant about any Washington politician.

      Two. Yang DID answer his question. (Bonus, he did it within his allotted time.) You didn't hear anyone else being asked how specifically they were going to implement their policies. And in 2016 one candidate became POTUS even after he specifically avoided telling people anything concrete about his plans.
      I'm a fan of intellect as much as the next guy, that's why I'm seriously rooting for Harris. But I've read Yang's tax plan. I think it's a waste of resources to divvy up across the entire population all at once like a tax refund. (He's literally just trying to bribe everyone.) But aside from that the math checks out. Paired that with everything else on the Democratic agenda and it's plausible we could get everything done on a 0-2% tax hike on the middle class and below. Which is big news for everyone on the left who's been told by the likes of Shapiro that there just isn't anyway for Healthcare reform, Education reforms, et al with what money we have.
      Yang's proof that the money's been there the whole time, it's just not been accessible under trickle-down economics.

      Larry Daniels I don't think that's what Biden said or was meaning at all. Apparently you didn't know that his dad was a member of the KKK. He was raised under that idealism. They just don't talk about it on TV. Our country is riddled under a cloud of secrecy whose intentions are to Cloud the minds of the Common Man or to occupy them rather so try not to focus what's really going on. But what they overlooked is all men are created equal there's nothing special about them having paper printed with green ink on it or metals that they consider thier 'precious' reveals the Golem hidden within their souls. Because they have no consideration of man being equal and that we all perish the same way.

      I was not ready for a ‘Captain Planet’ reference, in this comment section: but it bloody fits, and I damn well love it haha.
      From now on; whenever I see her being interviewed, or in a debate, I’m gonna be looking for her power ring, and humming the theme tune haha.
      “Captain Planet, he’s our our hero,
      Gonna take pollution down to zero...”
      Trump reminds me of Looten Plunder (though crossed with Hoggish Greedly- a pig-like human character): one of the bad guys from ‘Captain Planet’.
      And, if Marianne Williamson somehow won the nomination (which currently seems as likely as ME winning Miss Universe haha), and beat him, I could definitely see Trump yelling:
      “You’ll pay for this, Marianne Williamson!”
      Shaking his tiny fist, as he scuttles off back to one of his lairs- probably Trump Tower or Mar-A-Lago: awaiting the “knock-knock” from the FBI, and all the lovely indictments they (hopefully) pile on him...ah, a man can but dream/hope/pray haha.
      Jeez, after all these ‘Captain and Planet’ references, I reckon, on the “Pathetic Geek Scale” of 1 to 10, me being able to; not only remember the name of the bad guy/s, “Looten Plunder”, and “Hoggish Greedly”, but also that he (Plunder) was the character who said “You’ll pay for this, Captain Planet” in the theme song, I’m probably at an 11...thousand haha.
      It’s odd: I started off watching a video about political debates, and ended up quoting from a 90’s kids show, about and fighting eco terrorism haha.
      And now I’m off to listen to the ‘Captain Planet and the Planeteers’ theme music, a thousand times: because it is fantastic...”Go Planet!” 😀👍

      UBI is nice if it is put ON TOP of social safety systems, not instead of them. If some people get money on top, but vulnerable people had to use the ubi to pay what was preciously covered by the social safety policies, that's creating more inequality. And as far as I've seen, Yang is for the latter, which is dangerous.

      @@Yanaschaf Yang's plan allows people to choose which option works best for them. More broadly though if someone is only getting, say, 500 at month from the current system an extra 500 would make a massive difference to that person. Whilst you might be annoyed that even Jeff Bezos gets a free 1000 a month, which would mean nothing to him, even modest increase in reliable cash to the lower classes could be life-changing for them.
      You're also missing a key part of Yang's approach, by creating a mindset of abundance, as opposed to a mindset of scarcity, it creates a political landscape in which to strengthen the social welfare systems further for those who need it.
      Also, don't underestimate the 'no strings attached' benefits of UBI. Let's say someone is receiving 1000 in welfare now. In order to get that 1000 they likely have to prove their eligibility and jump through a whole bunch of bureaucracy which leads to added stress and uncertainty. As well UBI has no stigma associated with it as it's universal.
      You also need to consider the economic benefits of increasing the purchasing power of lower and middle classes. This flood of UBI money will be circulated around the local economy which in turn creates new jobs and opportunities, even for those currently on welfare.

Even though I hate that Seth and Stephen Colbert only showed Yang's confusion at the question, and not his answer, I can understand that those hosts focus on the main attractions and sprinkle over with some clips of the 'crazies'.

Up front he didn't refute the "3 trillion" figure cited by the debate moderator, then he explained how he would generate, by his own estimate, 800 billion in revenue to pay for it. That's a lot, but it's still 2.2 trillion unaccounted for. Maybe there wasn't enough time to get to that part? I would hope that if that's the case, he would complete his explanation on social media after the debate.

      Sanders is too much of a zero sum game proponent, you know 'someone' has to lose, e.g. Wall Street, Big Pharma, Military Industrial Complex..etc before others win and is way too combative, basically the mirror image of Trump, and both, unlike Andrew Yang, are thin on solutions that are relevant to the 21st century and specifically how to harness the rapid emergence of AI directed automation technology for human concern. You get Bernie in the identity politics will simply continue, us vs them.
      *This is the 3rd innings of the 4th Industrial revolution and Andrew is the only candidate that recognizes the challenges.* For example we are less than a decade away from displacing 3 million truck drivers with AI directed self driving trucks, and the attitude we should have towards this isn't protectionism but an enthusiasm to see extraordinary efficiency gains coupled with the plumitting of fatalities due to human error. We should be rooting for similar gains in efficiency outcomes in as many cognitive repetitive & manually repetitive jobs(approx 40% of all jobs in the US both blue & white collar) throughout the economy and if we are not then we should be calling into question 20th century thinking about the economy and this is the thrust of Andrew's campaign, it's *not Left or RIght it is forward!!* Bernie and other democratic candidates are to narrowly invested in the toxic left/right narrative it will only serve to continue the decisiveness that Trump Presidency bought with it. Without a unified vision that Andrew brings to the table, society will end up continuing to tearing itself apart. I'm open to be convinced otherwise...

    They even called Bill Clinton a socialist. So when a Republican screams "Socialist!" you can just ignore them.

      Come on, Bernie was an actual communist in the 80s talking about how bread lines are a good thing. It’s not that far fetched to call him a socialist.

      @@naomig2272 Obviously Bernie is a socialist (a democratic socialist, which is quite far from a communist). But there is no other Democrat who claims the title of socialist. So in all other cases, it's pure BS for Republicans to be shrieking that.

    Wished the network would have extended the debate time frame so that each candidate could have more time.
    It was painful to watch them all begging for seconds.
    This is important enough where the network could have given each candidate a more meaningful chance to proposed their policies and ideals.
    30 seconds to answer any question is a joke.

    Medicare for all and the taxes. They always talk about taxes going up BUT never bring up the fact that you no longer pay insurance companies for that coverage, let alone co-pays and deductibles. So while we keep insurance companies in play you end up with all the administrative cost of who's covered and how much they are covered for.
