[@johntaylor2180]

​@@jacielroblero13 My biggest issue was the economy. Trump marketed himself as a businessman and promised to put more money in every day working people's pockets. If he could do that, I figured, it was worth voting for a less-than-good candidate. Trump lied. He isn't a businessman, he's just a very successful con artist. Amazon and Wall Street might be doing well but most people I know are still struggling. Andrew Yang is different. For starter's, he's an actual entrepreneur, and also his work in the Obama White House proved that he knows how to help other people succeed also. He has a proven track record, not empty promises. But the most important reason I will be voting for Andrew Yang in 2020 is because his policy proposals put PEOPLE FIRST. Not only does he want to put money in our pockets, but he also has a plan to accomplish that. I like his entrepreneurial spirit. Making money is a great thing; I'd like to be a millionaire one day. I won't support policies that make it harder for regular people to achieve their dreams, I won't support policies that make it hard to start a business and do well. I WILL support policies like the Freedom Dividend because that would empower me and so many other people just like me and give us a leg up on achieving our goals. So that you don't have to be born with rich parents to have a shot at success, so that even people born into nothing know that their country values them and values the great things that they might accomplish one day.

*Andrew Yang thinking to himself* “So y’all gonna let me talk or....”

[@jeanvandorst4287]

Yang doesn't really want to solve the problem of Corporate domination (and robot automation). If he did, he would advocate *breaking the Corporations up.* That would give the little guy a chance to compete. He wants to *TAX* the corporations, which won't do anything to stop their tyranny. They can afford it. I can make an extra $1000 by getting a $1.00 raise. It won't change my life. I can get more groceries each month...ya!

[@justinsanchez8693]

@@jeanvandorst4287 Raising the minimum wage and forcing businesses to pay more for workers only makes running those businesses more difficult and can potentially shut it down. Yang's freedom dividend not only can reduce stress and improve quality of life, but it allows people to be more flexible with their jobs so they can do the things they want. It also would encourage people to spend their money more, improving the economy as businesses earn more from American spending. Also, Yang is against wealth taxes, as he's shown, based on how poorly it's worked on other countries, they aren't efficient.

[@jeanvandorst4287]

@@justinsanchez8693 I agree, raising the minimum wage is not an optimal solution. But it's way better than taxes. Raising the minimum wage at least puts money in the hands of *the worker.* R@ping businesses with high taxes only enriches *the government.* Yang is a socialist. Instead of promoting it with class warfare he's using a lot of fantasy technobabble to sell it. Yang wants to tax private businesses to death so he can make the government rich. He wants the people dependent on government handouts, just Ike every other socialist. Instead of having hundreds of corrupt corporations oppressing the people you have one *super corporation* (the government) running everything. We need to *break up* the corporations so that the average joe has a realistic chance at starting his own business. Corporations don't just destroy a person's standard of living; they also destroy their spirit. The individual worker is stuck doing some *soul-crushing-repetitive job* that fails to utilize their unique talents and skills. Give the people the means of production and everything will change.

[@justinsanchez8693]

@@jeanvandorst4287 Sorry but Yang isn't a socialist. Socialism is where the government directly controls the market, something that taking money from advertisements and the selling of people's data by big corporations isn't. Yang is doing Human-Centered Capitalism. We spend more money when we have more money, which is what the freedom dividend is for. If we have an extra $1000, that does put money in the hands of, not just workers, but everybody. Then they can spend that money on their own businesses or on something else. Either way, if more people are spending money, more businesses are earning money, therefore, once again, improving the economy. I wouldn't say Yang is using "technobabble" either. He's using statistics, percentages, and data from what has and hasn't worked to influence his decision-making and policies.

[@jeanvandorst4287]

@@justinsanchez8693 ". We spend more money when we have more money, which is what the freedom dividend is for. If we have an extra $1000." Where does the money come from? He'll tax everybody to death for this $1000.00 welfare payout. It will be VENEZUELA all over again. Yang's central argument is about automation, and its total BS. There will NEVER be thousands of self-driving cars on US highways, unless your goal is to kill everybody. To make a self-driving car the programmers would have to anticipate every possible situation. Driving is a complex action which requires self-awareness (consciousness), contemplation (thinking) and free-will. Scientists have *no idea* where these things come from - or how they arise. Self-awareness allows a human being to take in his environment all at once. Computers are not self-aware, and they never will be. They are simply executing instructions. It's like tipping over a set of dominoes to produce a result. There is no "thinking" involved. Computers have more in common with a toaster than a human mind. At best you could *program* a car to do very basic things like take a turn or stop at a light. And even then, it would have to be optimum conditions. Put the thing in a snow storm and you''re dead.

Please think. The government is the least efficient system in existence. "A believer"? It is not about faith and truth matters.

I'm not all upset, but I don't believe that for a 10% tax on luxury items, and a tax on data, every adult citizen could have $1000 a month, and that it would be worth close to what it is right now, and the prices would stay about the same. It would be a remarkable plan if it would, but the math doesn't check out. ☺ It takes $2.4T to $2.8T in checks, plus administration fees. Let's look at consumer spending totals to see what a 10% VAT could generate. The total consumer spending for 2018, including healthcare and housing was $12.9T. (10% is $1.29) That means even if EVERY ITEM and EVERY SERVICE we all bought was taxed 10% including our clothes, groceries, pizza orders, Netflix subscriptions, doctor visits rent and all the yachts purchases, it would only be $1.29T. That is not even half of what's needed. If healthcare, rent, staple food, and clothes are subtracted, the consumer spending is $7.1T (10% VAT is only 710B) If the IRS taxed data, the data industry is worth $200B. If the IRS took 100% of it, that's only $0.2T. Deficit spending to give people a ubi, is printing money, and handing it out, but also having the debt of it to repay with interest. Ya don't get dividends on debt. Economist Thursday made a cartoon video in 2014, called, "Why Don't We Print More Money?" It explains in 3 minutes and 38 seconds why, if the government gave us all money, we end up right back in the same place. It won't help anyone. Its oversimplified, but illustrates the principle. I put it on a playlist on my channel if anyone wants easy access to it (don't worry I don't make videos ). ☺ There's also a video about the EU VAT, on the playlist, that's super easy to understand. "What is VAT and how does it work? Will's Whiteboard" on channel Avalara. ☺ Estimated welfare programs saving are $161,576B according to Yang freedom-dividend website. Estimated costs to collect the extra taxes, determine eligibility, prevent fraud, and get checks out on time. Unknown

@@fieldflower7916 If you listen to his full proposal on a longer show, he also discusses how to pay for it. Part of it would be closing a lot of other social assistance programs. When he worked it out, only .8T needed to come from the VAT tax. The rest was seen through closure of excess programs as well as less spending on other drains like crime and addiction because people in harder circumstances will not feel the pressure as greatly if a hard period hits. The $1k a month isn't a job replacement, it's a marginal safety net for those that are more at risk and allows younger people slightly more freedom to seek education without fearing that they might suddenly end up homeless or in over their heads.

Everyone should know that right now, Andrew Yang is giving 1000$ of his own money to a family where the mother is unfortunately suffering from cancer and her son (yes, her son) moved back in to the home to support her. So we need to broaden the statement and say that the Freedom Dividend would recognize a lot of people whose work is not recognized by the GDP. I am a man and some of my close family members have precarious health right now. If I got the Freedom dividend, I would be far more inclined to stay home and support them.

I work for one of the largest tech companies in the world and 90% of all Silicon Valley startups purchase from us. About 50% of all new startups buying from us are ai and machine learning based businesses. For example, one is automating surgery to make a doctor's job easier but their end game, which is not hidden, is to fully automate surgery. Radiologists are going to be losing their jobs in a few years. All Uber and Lyft drivers will lose their jobs - those companies are really in the business of self driving technology. Have you seen the self driving taxi/Uber in Las Vegas, which started this year? Have you noticed that Ford is now invested in the rental bicycle, scooter, and shuttle business? They are preparing for when we don't have the need to "own" a car. This is also why the Automobile Club of So. California (a staple for car insurance and roadside service) has started a home repair subscription business. They see themselves out of business if they don't adapt. Cameras plus recognition software can record and tally things on a job site (construction, farming, civil engineering, etc) and is already being sold and implemented right now. The McDonalds near me is one of the busiest and only has "one" live order taker at the counter but many touchscreens to place your order. I have estimated that my job will be replaced by a call center (already in place) and corporate online sales portals (already in place) in 2 years and then those call center jobs will go soon after. But you don't have to take my word, google and search crunchbase and do your due diligence and you'll find the names of multiple companies doing or working on all these things now, not in 10 years. Even if you don't lose your job soon, how fast would you and your partner save for a down payment on a house with UBI providing you $24K/yr ($12Kx2)? How much more secure would you feel if you retire with social security plus $1000/month than without it? How much is your childcare per month? What would you do with an extra $1000 a month?

The only thing I still don’t compute is the VAT part. I used to live in Europe and very familiar with it, both as a consumer and business owner. Even if it’s only supposed to finance I think around $800B for Yang’s UBI program, it’s hard not to see how that tax won’t drive prices up, and therefore impact everyone. When you add, say, a 10% VAT on a product, what do you think will happen? That amount will be incorporated in the retail price. Same thing happens with Trump’s stupid Tariffs increase for Chinese products, importers add that amount to their wholesale price and down the road it’s us, consumers who pay the bill, certainly not Chinese manufacturers, nor importers themselves. Bottom line is, we would all lose a bit of buying power because of it, so in fact those $1,000 you get won’t be worth the same as $1,000 pre- VAT implementation. More like $900 in today’s money (if VAT is 10% or roughly half of European VAT as suggested by Andrew). Or am i missing something?

[@denisetauben1930]

YangGang has plenty of room for the newly informed better way forward!!! Yang 2020!!!!

[@00justsayin00]

no hassle, also, Bernie’s guaranteed employment would basically be forcing people into work that they may not be suited for, or that they may potentially hate. Forcing someone into these situations would increase depression, stress, etc. It’s an unhealthy solution, & wouldn’t actually “guarantee” something for everyone.

[@HJima]

I WAS TOO, was super hesitate but I'm voting for Yang now! His notions are all rational, and would help so many people!! I can't wait to vote for the primaries YANG2020

[@marimiller9937]

no hassle same here , love Bernie. Wonder if Yang got President, who would be the Vice and who would head all the offices in Washington. I bet Bernie if not President will fit somewhere very high if he doesn’t get President. What a fine line up of optimistic leaders if any one of them beat Trump❤️❤️❤️

I dismissed his dividend for all when I first heard it, but after watching this I believe it can be implemented and it is even better than Harris $6,000 tax credit.

[@matthewarnold4557]

Yang's interview with Joe Rogan is much better and more detailed than this one. Go watch that.

[@GuRuGeorge03]

I'm german and jealous that you have Andrew. I hope he becomes president and influences people like him around the world to follow his example, so that the corporate lobbyism that is destroying modern society all around the planet can be stopped, while laying the pathwork for the future, before it is too late.

[@angelswahlenberg2577]

Thank you for supporting Yang. We do need a goid president and we just got the perfect candidate.😊

[@cg-ek3ti]

Mehan, Joy, No one is disputing whether or not either of you need $1,000 @ month. Freedom dividend is opt in. If you want it, great, if you don't want it, fine. No one is forcing you to take it. Did any of you perform your due dilligence prior to Yang coming on your show? Y'all look ignorant AF. Yang has viable, well thought out inititives that can change lives for the better. He's not a corporate sponsored politician. Yang2020

[@redneckscumbags4422]

i really hope these rich ppl really have the spine to not opt-in , so we can bring the cost down and maybe get a bigger payout...but i doubt it!

[@signalfire6]

Amen. Actually Joy acted like she had no clue about 'this universal basic income thing' but then immediately had the '$3 trillion' number ready. It's too bad but ONE of them should have read his book before he came on and been the one to ask questions, and it wouldn't have killed them to have him on for the whole hour instead of 10 minutes. The other stuff they covered wasn't important by any means.

Everyone getting it is part of the solution. Gets rid of the divide of giver/receiver. Rich people only are 1% of the population anyway, so wouldn't save much.

My brother is a veteran who is mentally ill. He refuses to go to the VA because he does not want the stigma of the diagnosis, he refuses to apply for disability for pride, we fear he will become permanently homeless. The UBI will save his life. I hope Yang becomes president.

[@cyber6sapien]

Doubtful. They won't even let him speak during the debates. But I think he would make an excellent VP pick, especially if Senator Warren wins the nomination.

[@awwwkitteh]

I hope your brother gets over his pride. It's easier said than done but he's gotta do it for his own sake and for those that care about him. I hope he gets the treatment he needs and recovers

[@DenverDonate]

I'm a military Veteran as well and can attest to the difficulties some vets have and if you're homeless it's even more difficult to get help. When organizations that offer assistance see you're a military veteran you'll be deferred or denied service because will claim you have the VA instead....but little do they know just how much of a circus act it can become trying to get help from the VA. The number for their department that helps homeless vets isn't even listed in their directory if you call them and that tells you all you need to know about that.

[@hross1201]

It’s interesting that no one asked him how he’d GET the money to pay for this UBI. Yang says on day 1, he will sit down and start sending out checks. Without Congress? It’s basic civics. The Executive doesn’t have the purse. He’ll have to work with members of Congress. Good luck getting the budget hawks on board with pushing more debt into the future. I doubt his plan will roll out the way he thinks it will. Yang will have to compromise. The same reason why I knew Trump wouldn’t get his wall unilaterally. But Yang APPEARS to have solutions. Vote for him because he has a math hat. Businessmen don’t always make good presidents.
