Yang GANG 🇺🇸

[@michaelrch]

Yang wants to fund UBI with VAT. VAT is a regressive tax on consumers. Companies DONT pay it. They just add it to the price that the consumers pay and it depresses demand. His policy is therefore economically illiterate. If you funded UBI from a wealth tax or an alternative minimum tax on corporations then it might work but that would need to be investigated. As it is, Yang's main policy is a loser.

[@nickrotolo5011]

@@michaelrch there is just so much misinformation and bias in your statement. All regressiveness of the VAT is counteracted by the freedom dividend. VAT is a uniform tax. It is made regressive by ratio of income not because it's solely regressive. You would need to spend over 120,000 in consumer goods in a calendar year to be worse off. According to the Bureau of Labor and statistics the average American spends 66,009. You are trying to implement Robin hood taxes to make it seen more just. But in fact UBI is the most just proposal of any candidate. And can be the greatest peace of civil rights legislation since giving women the right to vote. It empowers minority communities that have been in cyclical poverty for generations. It helps women in abusive relationships have the ability ti leave. It allows LGBTQ+ individuals who are disowned by family members a starting block for life. You have a preferred candidate that is fine. But no matter how many holes you try and poke UBI is the best policy offered in this election cycle

[@XKenny77]

@@michaelrch Companies DO pay VAT. It occurs at every point in the value-adding chain. Yes, it can be regressive in a vacuum, but when it's combined with UBI, it's really, really not, especially when Yang has already talked about zero-rating certain key items (diapers or food, for example) while more luxury items could attract a higher rate (yachts or rocket engines, for example.) If you think Yang's plan to abolish poverty, empower women, empower workers, create jobs and begin to transform the economy for the future isn't good enough for you though, which candidate's UBI proposal is your favourite?

Ubi is a great thing but vat is not the tax that should be funding it (capital gains and estate tax can raise just as much, and they only target rich people and not the working class) and you shouldn't have to forfeit all other social programs to get ubi, because some (usually the poorest and worst off) people receive more than a 1000 dollars a month in other programs, so switching to ubi would hurt them. It also makes it non universal at the same time. Fix these two issues and the proposal is almost flawless

[@schloops8473]

@@EE-gv9wt the reality is that tech companies are incredibly good at avoiding all the kind of taxes you talk of and that's why he's going with VAT. Mind you, VAT would cover only half the cost as the rest would come from gains in the economy, saving money by not jailing some people, less people with mental health problems and concurrent welfare programs and so on. The numbers add on and the vast vast majority would gain massively from it. As a leftist, the idea that nobody would be under the poverty line is attractive to me. To libertarians, it's the fact that people decide what to do with their money, no begging involved, no loss of privacy (which progressives like too). And don't get me started on the safety net that is nothing more than a costly scam where people with contacts and from better families are more apt at hopping through the loops to get help. The numbers are horrible as very few people get the help they need and of those very few get over 150 a month and all fear loosing it at any time. Time to replace that crap with UBI.

[@jacobcrayola9311]

"I understand the impulse behind identity politics, but Democrats have to know that identity politics is a very poor way to approach winning national elections and it's a very poor way to bring our country together. We have to enact solutions that will help all Americans and when Martin Luther King championed a guaranteed minimum income in the 60s, which is almost exactly like my Freedom Dividend, he didn't do it for any subset of Americans, he did it for all Americans. And that's again how we move the country forward." What a beautiful quote. Yang speaks in completely understandable language, with a tone that is mild yet convincing and reasonable. His non-extremism and appeal to ALL Americans will definitely be of interest to the many voters in the middle who despised both ends of the political spectrum. And the fact that he is discrediting identity politics is I'm sure very appealing for conservatives like myself who abhor this sort of nonsense. But Yang does it in such a fashion that it doesn't come out in the way that pundits like Ben Shapiro does it. He sugarcoats the negativity and always ends it on a positive, hopeful note that really gives a totally different impression, despite the fact that he is literally saying the exact same thing. It is in my firm belief that Andrew Yang has major potential, as he is uniquely focusing on the job problems and issues that touch right into the hearts of average Americans. It's just as simple as spreading the message; more Americans need to hear his message.

[@ericparker163]

Please when spreading the word, especially to fellow conservatives, remember to register as Democratic ahead of the primaries. Trump has the Republican nomination wrapped up and Yang deserves it on the democratic side but is going to need all the help he can get. As a guy in his 40s that has voted democratic or Green Party his entire life, Yang is the candidate I’m always hoping for a never get, regardless of whether they win or lose.

@@saxboss1 It's significantly less authoritarian than what we have today. Welfare is a racially divided, inefficient, ineffective mess which simply creates more stress and poverty. The Freedom Dividend would let people make more of their own choices, free of government restrictions and commands. People would be able to say no to dangerous, exploitative or abusive jobs. In some cases, it's been shown to reduce inflation because it enables markets to actually function properly. "Throwing money at at the problem" doesn't always work because usually there's some big government plan behind it and that plan is usually misguided and/or mismanaged. In this case, it's just ensuring that every adult human has enough cash to survive on. If people have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, how can they live without being able to buy food? How can they be free if their income is dependent on filling in the right forms for an overweening government?

His policy is therefore economically illiterate. If you funded UBI from a wealth tax or an alternative minimum tax on corporations then it might work but that would need to be investigated. As it is, Yang's main policy is a loser.

[@TheM0joDoj0]

@@michaelrch 20th century economics says that but that's not what we see in the data today. The problem that has the Fed scratching their head right now is that they literally can't find why there's no inflation. The reason is because price sensitivity is no longer tied to the things it used to be, like money in the system. That's because technology has given Americans a level of price transparency that suppresses the ability of companies to pass the cost onto the consumer. You can find the cheapest of price of anything on a nationwide scale, even global scale in a matter of an hour on Google. That's why right now as Trump raises tariffs on China, the cost to companies have increase, but price tags on the shelf have barley moved.

[@khongminh5168]

Michael RCH, he proposes a VAT on luxury goods that only the rich would buy, not essentiels. It will not hurt the consumer eho can’t afford it. He proposes a tax on numbers of clicks or searches and such so that tech companies start paying up. But you’re right that he should find more ways to fund it, like a higher tax on the wealthiest 10% and reduce military spending and stop regime change wars like Tulsi Gabbard suggests.

[@michaelrch]

Jack Gates I disagree that a wealth tax is regressive. It's kinda impossible when it only applies to the rich. I live in a country with a wealth tax on worldwide assets and the way it's defined makes it almost impossible to avoid. It's a right wing talking point to say that taxes on the rich can't be enforced. They can and they are in countries that mean business. The problems where they arise are in countries that gut their tax agencies, like the GOP has systematically gutted the IRS and starved it of funds.

[@michaelrch]

Khong Minh Most VAT taxes omit food and sometimes things like child's clothing. They are still regressive. Unless you make it a pure luxury tax that only applies to fast cars, boats and jewellery etc (I'm summarising obviously) then it will disproportionately take from the poor and working class (ie it will take more of their money than the rich). But if you do restrict is that much then you don't collect the trillions of dollars needed for UBI. You can tell he fundamentally either doesn't get it or is hiding something because he says "Amazon will pay a value added tax". Amazon NEVER will pay the tax. Consumers will.

If you go to the supermarkets you'll see these auto-checkout machines that have replaced 8 hired people with 4x stations per person.

5:58 that’s an EXCELLENT point about how caregiving jobs in the home are valued at $0. creating value for jobs where people are taking care of others in need (sick, elderly, etc), well that is one of the best reasons in favor of UBI that i’ve heard yet.

[@khongminh5168]

joe hundertmark Yeah! Damn straight!

[@trichadashirley2799]

As a future care giver to my aging parents (now still working full time) I am tortured thinking ahead that my work as a full time care giver to my aging parents is economically value as $0. America need an update version of GDP measurement that includes human center's values

I don't care who's on the ballet in 2020, mine will read Andrew Yang. Love this guy.

[@UnluckyGambler]

same here. ive been trying to convince everyone of that too. vote for whom u believe in, not for whom u think will win.

[@dougrobinson2024]

Keep thinking that way, if you want Trump to win! Because that's exactly what the Bernie people did and it siphoned off enough votes to allow Trump to become President. Want Trump to win again? No? Then vote for WHOEVER has the greatest chance of beating him! Don't throw your vote away--again. Learn your lesson and move on. I think Yang is great too--but he doesn't stand a chance of beating Trump. Mark my words. 06-08-2019

[@UnluckyGambler]

@@dougrobinson2024 nope, thats the kind of thinking that made so many voters feel like their votes dont matter, which lead to low voter turnout. i never voted before yang precisely because there were no candidates that represented me and what i believe in. if i am to vote, im going to vote for my values. fuck the two party system.

[@UniverseOfAtoms]

@@dougrobinson2024 I will respectfully disagree with your analysis of what happened in 2016. Hilary lost because she didn't speak to the things that are actually hurting working-class American families. Trump acknowledged the harm and promised to help this huge, disenfranchised voting bloc by confronting China and reducing illegal immigration. Hilary couldn't develop a platform for the working-class because the Clintons sold themselves long ago to the most powerful factions in America, and keeping globalization rolling and keeping cheap, unaccounted labor flowing are important to their "investors." Bernie had a platform specifically for the working-class, could have confronted Trump on those points, and many of his supporters were Bernie first and Trump as their back-up vote. So, Bernie voters were not de facto Hilary voters. She was never "the greatest chance of beating Trump" as you say. So, yeah, keep thinking that way. Put up another pro-war corporatist and see if Trump remains in power.

@Michael Anderson Why?

[@domasherpa1440]

Barack Obama was 45 years old when he ran for president and Andrew is 44 years old I’m having feeling he could make it

[@donlimuti8659]

Thank you Bill Maher for this clear presentation of Andrew Yang's candidacy.

[@jms5340]

everytime i hear andrew yang speak i know he is for real and that he actually gets what is the root cause of so many issues for regular working class people

[@meganh9460]

I completely agree with you and I typically lean right.

[@troypropes1182]

People like Yang make it an exciting time to be alive. Someone who acknowledges problems and seeks solutions.

[@troypropes1182]

@T Bone what benefits are people losing by gaining $1000 a month? It doesn't cause inflation because no new money will be printed. It doesn't take away social security, it stacks on top. Plus Amazon and other giant tech companies will be paying the taxes that they were supposed to be paying anyway... All I can see is the average American benefiting tremendously from the Freedom Dividend. Get together with 3 friends and go buy a house! Or land or open a business! Save it, spend it. Idk, it's yours anyway!

[@troypropes1182]

@T Bone he's a successful capitalist. We are just changing the game around a little bit and making Capitalism a bit more ethical by making sure that every American Citizen doesn't have to start at $0 each month. It's Capitalism that doesn't start at $0.

you should check out warren in that case

[@debbiedogs1]

@@troypropes1182 - Yang has said that if a person gets federal money already, the $1000 would be REDUCED by that amount! He has recently said that SS would not count, but this is STILL not good enough for the situation we have, and UBI is a Trojan horse that keeps us desperate and working for crap wage, PLUS the oligarchs have frequently said that they would even use it to end minimum wage laws! Also, well off people do NOT need this money, therefore it should NOT be 'universal'. (Notice Yang does NOT have a living wage stance on his platform, OR an antiwar platform, plus he is NOT for healthcare for all, just confuses us with 'maybes' and bullshit plans. He is total establishment, recruited to dupe us, and is all for keeping the current corrupt PRIVATIZED system which allows the corrupt to enrich themselves with federal money.) There is a far superior solution to automation and poverty and unemployment, but the establishment has been HIDING it for about 3 years. Here is a brief overview, with links to much more info: whatifitoldyouthis.blogspot.com/2018/09/federal-job-guarantee-and-cancellation.html

[@troypropes1182]

@@debbiedogs1 wrong. He is very anti-war, it DOES stack on SS now (as far as I know). Wait.... How does $1000/ month make anyone a slave to low wages, compared to now?? If you don't like your job NOW, you have nothing to fall back on until you find a new one. If you have $1000 coming in every month, you then have the Freedom to CHOOSE which employer you would like to work for because, you don't have to rush into another oppurtunity immediately; or you can start a business with it... I think you are highly confused.

[@marjoriecampbell7766]

God damn he’s so smart. How can you argue with this? It’s so obvious.

I love how he straight faced Maher's playful jabs.
