Oh well oops, I dunno much about this guy and I don’t know much about economics

To play devils advocate I 100% agree with him that jobs give meaning to life and are crucial to the health of the individual and the community, which is why job creation to me is infinitely more useful than simply handing someone money for nothing, no matter who that person is, rich or poor. Rich trust fund kids being handed money they didn’t earn crates spoiled entitled useless brats usually

And I only was able to watch like 10min because have to go to work, so might have missed many other good points made

Also I do believe trickle down economics is a myth. People who are living at a high standard that come into a bunch of money no matter the method will put it in savings accounts. At least some gets invested which companies need for growth and development. But a LOT gets dumped into savings where it does little benefit to our country as a whole

I didn't hear his solutions, but he identified the problem and I think that's what we should focus on is first identifying the problem.

Unfortunately there are too many lazy and ignorant people to wake up to the fact that our government is just one big corrupt rat nest of villainy.
The corruption is tax incentives. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

There are legal and healthy tax incentives, and there are dubious tax loop holes that have a negative effect on the country.

And there are also laws that magically do not get enforced when certain people violate them. And that's corruption.

It's not illegal for a journalist to publish stolen material.

Tell me what else is legal. Slowly. And bite your lip a little while you do it.
