Ana Kasparian SHREDS Trump's Weak Economy

[@tonyt765]

Vote D for Democrats not R for Russians come Nov. Great piece TYT!

[@sandradee2001]

Thanks for being you, Anna❣️ Great piece, as always.

[@Cosmosandchisme]

You go Ana, this is my favorite series from tyt right now.

[@andrewludlam2565]

Didn't trump go bankrupt multiple times?

[@sirnutsofdeez7691]

No, he didn't. He had businesses were the ones that went bankrupt not Trump himself.

[@UnforsakenAssassin]

Sir Nuts Of Deez but he always claims to be such a great business man and people blindly believe him. He's a garbage business man

Ouch! Ana be slaying them Republicans! 💁🏼😂

[@fredjohnson7588]

I'm tired of Republicans talking badly about the program's that help the poor such as social services. Most people on social services work, or they are disabled and are unable to work. I was working 3 jobs and still couldn't make ends meet, I had to get foodstamps and Medicaid because my employers, walmart, staples and outsmart refused to offer me benefits because they don't hire fulltime employees unless ur a manager.. I worked my way into a heart attack. I was taken out of work and filed for disability. My point is, the only people these tax cuts help, are the greedy owners of these 3 companies I worked for. I did get a little more in my paychecks thanks to the Trump tax breaks, I got 9 dollers more a week in each check.

[@ReleaseMyKrakken]

We've all seen this story before... Many times before. Democrats actually work to eliminate the deficit... Albeit slowly. now Republicans come in... Give the rich their tax cuts and increase spending on the military... Our debt and deficits balloon... We get another economic crash within a couple years... Rinse and repeat Insanity is repeating the same thing again and again and expecting a different result. we collectively have allowed this to happen... We get the Congress and the president we deserve.

[@MrEdge-sl2vk]

Except Obama more than doubled the nation's debt while he was president.

[@ReleaseMyKrakken]

And what did he do to the deficit?

[@MrEdge-sl2vk]

@Sean ... He increased it.

[@ReleaseMyKrakken]

Mr. Edge I'm guessing you don't know what deficit and debt means. Perhaps do a little research.

[@MrEdge-sl2vk]

@Sean I'm guessing this is the best argument you can come up with because you're a 12 year old.

[@northernbrother1258]

So you cut taxes on the rich, then you borrow the money from them so they can collect interest. Then you use the exploding debt to justify cutting the programs that those of us who do pay taxes depend on. Meanwhile productivity increases, but wages remain stagnant, so tax revenues don't go up. Lather, rinse, repeat.

[@jmq9503]

Thank you Ana!

[@etham1655]

Wait i don't get it. You're telling me that if the government spends more money and cuts taxes at the same time the deficit will increase?? How is that possible?

[@peterbutler7199]

Think about the deficit as your credit account and taxes as your cash. If you cut the amount of cash that you make and spend more money on your credit account, what happens to your debt?

[@armitagejake]

We have to starve in order to feed the millionaires greed.

[@charlesbickel4295]

The poor are the real greedy in america. They want more of what someone else earned.

[@internetuser12]

i think the poor just want a 40-hour/week job that pays a living wage. That shouldn't be too much to ask for. Demonising the poor will only add to this problem.

[@charlesbickel4295]

Cool Stuff they should start making better decisions. If their labor isn’t worth a “living wage” they should learn more marketable skills or work more hours. We all did it. Most of us improved ourselves to make more money.

[@internetuser12]

This is not realistic for a huge percentage of the population because their IQ isn't high enough to learn these more marketable skills. Australia has a minimum wage and it has been working fine for us. Low IQ people are able to live in reasonable comfort by sharing rent and working at places like McDonalds for their entire lives. It's not going to get any better also because automation will very soon wipe out all 80-90 IQ jobs. If about 40% of the population is soon unable to afford food and shelter, the outcome isn't going to be pretty for anyone, and that's putting it lightly...

[@charlesbickel4295]

Cool Stuff our poor have iPhones and big flat TVs. Their choices led to their poverty.

[@dudeist_priest]

My employer skipped raises this year and my taxes went up. But that's ok, cuz gas is getting more expensive.

Ana, if I ever get on your bad side please allow me the chance to fix it please lol Your piece's are so thorough that I am surprised there is anything left of the people you cover in them lol Great work as usual.

[@davidfields5375]

Cutting SS is the stupidest idea. Do they think they just get to keep deducting from our pay? Cutting SS will do nothing to fix the deficit because the corresponding taxes would be cut right along with it.

[@NyetTube]

We've already seen the "fruits" of this last tax scam! My employer bought couches and put them in our break room. WINNING!!!!

[@adamh1955]

StealieSteve yeah that will help pay the utility bill or maybe help pay for that long over dur vacation.

[@charlleedodson]

I asked my dad if he received a tax cut and he didn’t, so you are wrong Kelly Anne

[@David-bc3nj]

Get em ana!!! U smart beautiful independent woman!!!

[@arbutusviper1]

Side note: she's also bitter AF because one of her former colleagues left TYT and went on to be successful on their own network. Meanwhile, this Armenian sellout continues to collect her paycheck from a channel named after the group tried to exterminate her own people. Go Ana...away.

[@David-bc3nj]

arbutusviper1 a Young Turk is defined as someone who rebels against the status quo. The show is named that because it’s mission was to deliver news in an unconventional way. Yes it’s also happened to be the name of the group responsible for the Armenian genocide which sucks but Cenk has accepted it as fact for a long ass time and Ana has talked about the genocide multiple times on the show. She’s the furthest thing from a sellout. I’m a fuckin loser for even explaining this tho lol

[@tracim3080]

I don’t consider billion dollar companies “small businesses”

[@TheShadowGames07]

Push the point that there should be massive tax cuts for the low and middle class and NOOOOO tax cuts for the high class. If they want growth, then give money to the poor.

[@TheShadowGames07]

And your point Nizzle? You really think mega corporations are struggling to pay your checks? And if you are working for a small business, then yes, this helps the people signing your checks. And I ask again, what is your point? Its not the mega rich storing their money off shores that stimulate the economy, its the people with 100$ who need to spend every dollar to get by.

[@TheShadowGames07]

I agree Michael, but to get around the 'omg, why should a burger flipper get 15$ an hour' crowd, you can still achieve the same ends by not taxing them at all, because it still amounts to the poor people getting higher pay checks without actually affecting smaller businesses or inflation overall because the workers are still getting the same pre tax amount. I do agree that wages need to go up as well, but this is a different method to the same goal.

[@bloodshot6103]

I didn’t get shit my company bought new trucks an boilers bought out old company’s but we didn’t get a dime! Thanks for the tax breaks trump really helped you donors I mean voters!!

I wouldn't wish Trump and the GOP on any country, not even are worse enemy. Forcing Trump and the GOP's insidious policies on another country would be a crime against humanity.

[@LocaalDent]

[@LocaalDent]

[@LocaalDent]

[@markeith50]

where are the Tea Party people who swore against ALL DEBIT!!!

[@eios76]

they seem to have vanished, maybe they got jobs, as I recall a lot of them were unemployed when the team party fist came out

[@rubenolguin1664]

Virtually everyone believes that government spending and/or tax cuts will have a powerfully positive effect on our economy. The Republicans believe tax cuts and military spending are the basic formula for economic prosperity. But in other, far more important ways, the idea that government spending and government debt is a positive force in the economy is completely wrong. Fatally wrong. Each dollar of additional debt led to less and less growth in GDP. Based on academic research, the best evidence suggests the [government expenditure] multiplier is -0.01, which means that an additional dollar of deficit spending will reduce private GDP by $1.01, resulting in a one-cent decline in real GDP. While Trump’s tax cuts can temporarily boost GDP, within three years, his spending will cut into GDP at a rate roughly equal to 1% of total government spending. The only prediction that’s consistent is that the government is going to make this default cycle a lot worse. In other words, Ana is right! And I will leave you with another question, Why Trump companies have gone Bankrupt 5 times? Excess leverage/Debt! What is he doing with the country? Excess leverage/Debt!

[@jessie38supercharged]

better jobs? like coal mining and apple picking? conservative? pffff. wages have gone down.

[@tmp0922]

On point Ana!

[@dariuslloyd]

Your no filter segment always delivers! Great piece

[@michaelbeelby1995]

Trickle down economics is a lot like dying of thirst and standing under a random leaf, with fingers crossed, hoping and praying a random drop of rainfall might, just might, fall and miraculously land in your mouth. The unfortunate thing is most people can't do the basic math that wages stay stagnant + prices go up = you make less, or corporations make more(get taxed less) + you make the same + massive government spending = exploding national debts that you will eventually pay for.

[@KennyakaTI]

Conservatives annoy me with that trickle down economics bullshit. It never works. Corporations always keep that money for themselves and their shareholders (which I'm not complaining about because I invest in the stock market). My issue is that they lie and say they want to lower taxes because it creates jobs when it really doesn't and history has shown this.

[@michaelbeelby1995]

kenny aka TI you point out that history shows this...i would just like to say that to know history, you need to read and take in information, these are two things these asshats are woefully inept at. As to the stock market, the tax cut is an artificial stimulus to keep those stocks afloat and riding high, once the stimulus runs out, the bubble pops, and we see a correction...those gains are ethereal and do not represent the actual economy in any way

[@ReleaseMyKrakken]

I've had enough from kellyanne Conjob

[@patricialomden8519]

Wages have to be raised. It's getting ridiculous.

[@genericwhitemale1114]

Patricia Lomden why not go learn a trade and do that? Welders earn around 70 to 90,000 a year. Truck drivers earn 50 to 70k a year. Hell ship workers (you have to go to school to work on a ship) earn 6 figures tax free.

[@genericwhitemale1114]

No one but yourself is stopping you from getting a better job. Become a cop. Depending on where you live, they can make up to 90k a year.

[@patricialomden8519]

I know it may be shocking, but I actually wasn't referring to my situation. I meant for people overall. Minimum wage is not a living wage in most states. I am quite happy with my job. I've thought of working as a cop but in Chicago, the cpd is corrupt and needs reform so I ended up working more on the political side to push for that instead and find it quite fulfilling.

[@lextacy2008]

Your an idiot. Lets have everyone go after top paying jobs where the job candidates outnumber jobs 10:1 Its called scarcity

[@justinsuerken7948]

[@commanderdon4300]

Is it really the richest country in the world when all the wealth is owned by only a handful of people?

[@ithemba]

ask norway. they have so much public wealth in their state fund (which funds their wellfare, infrastructure and education) that virtually every norwegian alive today is a millionaire.

[@Dennis-zf7jr]

Do a little research. Norway is not nirvana

[@happyland4524]

Norway has saved 6 1/2 times the country's yearly national budget. There is a reason why we Norwegians call it happy land. Even disabled, like myself, have better life than many Americans.

[@ithemba]

Dennis did I say it was? But considering national wealth and how to measure how "rich" a country is, it's peculiar since it follows nearly the exact opposite strategy from the US. They do have their state fund with all the income from their (nationalized) natural resources and they even manage it by political means instead of just like any other hedgefond, i.e. decreeing via law that it may only be invested in renewable energy. While the US debt is at over 100% of it's GDP while having total shitty welfare, public education and infrastructure, Norway has this giant surplus while having a well functioning welfare state and some of the best public education in the world.

[@squashua16]

Youre the best Ana.

[@patriciabranigan713]

Except corporations did not do what it would take for Kudlow's predictions to come true. They did not expand business nor did they give wage hikes. Trickle down doesn't work because the very people who tout it do not follow it.

[@seanmcginnis850]

Sean Mcginnis Depends on where you live and education level. I have friends putting in apps everywhere and some can't find jobs. No GED or diploma and they get turned away by the same factory that hires excons 🤷‍♀️ I'm sure other areas have it better

[@johncastillo9018]

I'm a senior citizen I don't like the Republican idea that Social Security and MediCare will have to be cut as the yearly deficits increase even more than before. I thought they said the deficits and the accumulated debt would decrease, not increase, as the Tax cuts for the rich are implemented. On top of that so much money is wasted for bombs and missles.

[@onewomanslife]

Do you know why Henry Ford really was a GIANT? He is known for the assembly line but what he did that was profound was PAY HIS WORKERS WELL. That boosted the middle class and made it possible for his workers to buy his product.

[@gopium1976]

It makes too much sense a Republican will hate it

[@johnbuckner2828]

We should be focusing more on wage stagnation, they have been stagnant for decades and I don't think any policy tweak in the right or left is going to fix it. There's so many factors to consider that even macro economics professors don't agree on what to do. But it does need to be dealt with. People who work 40 hours a week should be able to pay their rent, eat healthy, and afford Healthcare. Right now I'm not sure that is subsidized with government welfare which is necessary but I don't see this as a permanent fix.

[@johnbuckner2828]

Michael Coville I can't disagree, but that won't necessarily fix the overall problem. Minimum wage should keep up with inflation but we will have to see the impact on cities that have implemented a $15 minimum wage.

[@Ostnizdasht206]

Stop the wars

[@weregonnaneedsmallerhandcu5372]

To be perfectly clear, the debt itself isn’t really a problem. The actual core problem is threefold. 1. More debt is fine so long as as the economy grows to make the additional debt bearable. There is no actual solid plan for this. 2. The money is being spent on stupid things. We could be investing in infrastructure, renewable energy, and the citizenry but instead we’re engaging in trade wars, subsidizing fossil fuels, and other stupid expenses like Donald’s golf trips. 3. Political hypocrisy. The fiscally responsible folk suddenly don’t give a crap when they’re spending money giving handouts to the rich.

[@arielaguirre1364]

[@JoeBob189]

Uhhh, maybe because Anna is claiming Trump is ruining our economy by raising our debt when Obama doubled our debt. Are you ignorant? Trump's economy is expected to reach GDP growth of 5%, it was close to 2% under Obama. America's economy is increasing dramatically while China's took a hit due to trade war. Trump 2020

Who is he going to put to work? Unemployment is 4% which is pretty much a normal rate. This is more of that mythology of people just sit on welfare and don't work when TANF got rid of cash welfare for life (you can only get it for 5 total years of your adult life). You have to work to get housing help or food stamps. The only ones not working are those who are disabled so is that who Ryan wants to put to work? Maybe it is kids they are the biggest loafers. Baby labor?

[@calichef1962]

Conserviturds *never* understand this. Their self-righteous b.s. about "welfare queens" is just that, b.s. Saint Ronnie invented the welfare queen and the RepubliCons have turned that lie into their gospel and mantra. They have clumsily rolled all that propaganda into one misogynistic, racist, classist club they use to beat the poor into submission. Those same mean-spirited jerks swear up and down that undocumented immigrants are simultaneously taking their jobs AND "sucking up" welfare, SNAP benefits and Medicaid. Never mind that they don't qualify for any kind of benefits, or the fact that if immigrants are, in fact, taking their jobs that it's their beloved boss that's both _hiring_ the immigrant and firing... _them._

[@untheist5533]

Excellent!

[@RichzNHealth]

Tax cuts is the reason that public services such as, education, transportation, social security, and health-care are being pushed into the direction of privatization. Individual citizens of the United States pay taxes in order to fund socialist programs such as the ones listed above, what makes this GOP's agenda dangerous is that these programs that we depend on as citizens will be turned into for-profit program's, which means that these services we paid for are now in the hands of corporations whose prices are subject to change or more likely increase as the years go further. As citizens we have allowed this sect of governance to high jack the fundamental purpose of our government and sold it to the highest bidder. The GOP has been and is the biggest threat to American democracy NOT Russia. Trumpism is a distraction, a distraction from the money being given back to the citizens in order to provide an auction to private interests for our public services. Citizens are going to lose what it means to be a citizen if the citizens are no longer funding the government. Trump is many things but not the cause of our current state of affairs. This is the long con that the GOP has executed without fail over the last 30 years. Trump is the patzy the GOP has elected in order to have a fall guy for their gutting of social services and the dismantling of the administrative state. Wake up citizens, if your not outraged you are not paying attention!!

[@RichzNHealth]

I should say that throughout my pursuit of my under grad at NAU for public administration the view on privatization is that it is great for our cities since there isn't enough money to go around. My education taught my to ask the question, why isn't there enough money? Besides that we spend 60 % of our taxes on military defense and yet many of our veterans come back from their brave sacrifice only to find that those services are poorly managed, under staffed and inadequate to their needs. At some point, if not already, the fall of the USA will not be anyone's fault but ours. Get informed, know what your Congressman or woman votes on and ask yourself if you benefit from that vote? Ask again who would benefit? Is immigration really the biggest thing you deal with in your personal life? Or is it that the moment you get paid, a majority of your pay check is gone preventing you from appreciating your contribution to this great idea of a nation? Now this isn't everyone's dilemma, but it is many. Ask yourselves what happens in your day to day and look at your Congress persons voting record on issues and ask if he/she understands what you need in order to improve your life? Ask another question and see if Jose or Jesus migrating to this country is really the biggest issue? And ask again why is it theirs?

[@rhondatischofer8828]

I already watched a news story on KZbin about I think it is called Robertsville? It's about a Texas town in the panhandle. A town that ALL voted for #45. A town that was hoping to benefit from the first tax reform. The news organization went back after the first tax reform went through. Guess how many families in that town benefited? None is the answer. Not one family benefited. There are farmers and teachers that live there. Ranchers that needed that tax reform to help keep their lands and keep their businesses. If this second tax reform does not benefit that town let alone other middle class, small business owner's towns, than that should be a wake up call to everyone. Republican and Democratic, wake up. The man that holds office is lying to you. Flip the script and vote someone else into office.

Now it is like I am paying into an insurance policy (which I also pay into ) in case I ever need it, like with my auto and homeowners policy; HOPEFULLY, I won't need to file a claim on it (because that would mean something unfortunate happened to me), but it is stupid to not have it like with my insurance policies because you never know what will happen from day to day. Those programs should really be called Social Insurance policy programs-yes, I know there are some short term insurance policies you can buy for covering a job loss etc., but they have many stipulations to them etc. I looked into them too. Most people can't cover themselves for huge extended periods of not working for whatever reason unless they are like a millionaire or billionaire (however if they ever unfortunatley went bust - some have- they could also use those programs too)/ People bitch on the right too that all the illegals (and of course the illegals are all minority types to those people & lazy or on drugs, LOL) are breaking the system, then yeah, like with the Dominicans recently using stolen Puerto Ricans identities to claim benefits, that is just fraud, but it is not overall or illegals on their own getting benefits using their own non-stolen identity- 1. They usually don't want to ask or apply and be caught & deported, 2. Don't qualify because of their illegal status (I don't know about CA, OK, would have to contact their Human Services agencies and ask them because I know some rightie will make that claim too) I do know though about it in other states, because I wanted to see for myself, not listen to some pundit telling me, to actually fact check it myself by contacting said agencies and inquiring about their procedures, requirements etc. with it (also to clue my FOX news watching relative in on reality, not the crap FOX spews about those programs). so the righties can shut up about the illegals picking their wallets.

I love Ana so I'm wondering why this show isn't on the members only content. There are so many dumb AF trolls here on KZbin.

Its sad how Republicans take from the middle class.

[@bane3991]

Republicans take from the middle class? You mean like how the democrats want to spike taxes and take from the upper/middle class. They're in favor of welfare, how can you possibly just blame Republicans?

So Trump is doing the only thing he does well: DRIVE BUSINESSES INTO BANKRUPTCY.

Cutting taxes and increasing deficit would just mean less government spending in other departments. Increase the progressive taxes for the high end earners implement a progressive corporation tax with it taxing high profit corporations more. No they won't take their business elsewhere, America is a huge market and unless they are making a loss, continuing to work will provide them profits. With that they will also see revenue and the boards of these large companies will get their pay packets. They just won't be as much inequality as there is, which is guess some people don't want... Here is what you should cut, relocate your military spending. USA population around 350 million roughly - Military spending over 600 billion. China population 1.3 billion but the military spending is at 228 billion. The reason I am using population to show the difference is because, China has a larger population to protect why is the US spending roughly 400 billion more on a population which is 3 times smaller? To push for a non existent war, oh wait I forgot trumps trying to create one with iran. I wonder what someone such as Bernie Sanders could do with 400, no wait even 200 billion. Trump is attempting to use trickle down economics, if I can even credit him for thinking that far. The truth is... inequality still stands and trickle down economics has failed unless you want to implement laws such as minimum age increases or maximum wage. Obviously taxes should not be so high because inequality does provide some incentive to work harder but the inequality that we face the worlds richest comparing to a high percentage of the population is absurd. Just my thoughts...
