The Issue Is: Hasan Piker and Larry Elder

On the show today... Hasan Piker is the youngest of the Young Turks.
He's one of the most influential progressive commentators in all of social media. His commentaries are shared and seen by millions.
Piker started his popular commentaries in a supply closet & grew them into a viral sensation.
Conservative talk show host Larry Elder grew up hating his father. He was beaten by him, and never given much affection.
After a verbal argument, they stopped talking. That lasted for ten years.
At 25 years old, Larry sat down to have a quick conversation with his dad for the first time in a decade. It lasted for 8 hours.
That conversation is at the heart of his book, "A Lot Like Me: A Father & Son's Journey to Reconciliation."
Elder recently debated The Young Turks' Hasan Piker on "The Issue Is:"
Watch "The Issue Is: with Elex Michaelson" on TV every Friday at 10:30pm on FOX 11 Los Angeles & Saturdays at 6:30am on KTVU FOX 2 in the San Francisco Bay Area.

@@nixpix814 I'm from canada we have socialized medicine and it's pretty good... most canadians agree. you can see by looking at polls on whether canadians support the health care system or not. the american military is run by the government and it's strong. why would health care be any different? Americans think it will cost too much but americans also think that healthcare actually costs as much as they're charged for it lol

[@nixpix814]

Because most Canadians are in the exact same situation as most people in most countries with socialized health care. They like it more the less they have to use it. Those with high needs like it less, and those with money buy private because it's multiples better. The queues are bad, visits short and care sub par but the government will obviously regurgitate the awesomeness of the system via media, academia and their own institutions over and over again from the day you were born. They will also fool you into believing that there are no alternatives and that free markets can not solve health care. The US military is strong, indeed, but also extremely highly funded and there is nothing to compare it to. It's rather easy to make something strong if you can take infinite resources from people whether they like it or not and ban all private alternatives. Most people agree that the US military is violent and horrendous monster so I don't think we ought to use that model as a basis for health care. What if I told you that the free market can provide health care at higher availability, better care, better outcomes and lower prices. Shouldn't you be interested in that? Shoudlnt you want to learn more? What if governmetn health care is on the same level as government cars, computers or the DMV?

[@abudgie6909]

@@VGFightSchool thing about libertarian socialism is that the government is controlled more democratically than in a republic. A big part of left anarchism is the idea of direct democracy. If the people control what happens through their votes (for policies, not politicians), then the people can be considered the government. So if the people are the government (because they are making legislative decisions) then it is not authoritarian at all. It is however very authoritarian and aristocratic for corporations to have as much power as they do through lobbying. Because corporations are not run by the people, they are run by CEOs and shareholders. People whose money makes them more money, rather than working themselves. In the case of right libertarianism, I’d agree with you, because right libertarianism doesn’t provide very many ways of practically implementing policy. The free market decides, supposedly. Though I doubt the free market would implement universal healthcare. Even conservative ideas wouldn’t make it. Profit incentives have historically only contributed to almost only harmful policies and issues. Such as environmental deregulation leading directly to companies dumping poisons and lithium waste in rivers, poisoning locals and the wildlife. I’m getting off track. Takeaway is that government (different from the state, because the state is an independent entity from the people) is not contradictory to left anarchism, but this sentiment does apply to right libertarianism because right libertarianism does not provide a method to implement policy effectively.

Speaking of foreign countries that have "free Healthcare" you fail to realize that usually their wages are also low due to increasing taxes for said healthcare. Free isn't free and it becomes more unsustainable as time passes. The government is allowed to increase/decrease tax on however they feel is appropriate and if that fails they then have to start cutting wages of healthcare providers that they now legally have control of and there isn't shit you or the hospitals can do about it if cause you gave uncle sam the go ahead to bend you over and do as he likes.

@@mcgheekortney You do realize that rent control is not in effect in most of the country currently and we still have one of the highest homeless populations of any developed country? Yet there are so many empty homes in the US while having this homeless population because it's better for the market to have higher rents and wait for someone who can pay. You're not going to build affordable low income housing and deal with the "problems" associated with poverty as a property developer when you can build new condos or luxury units and make much more profit. The free market won't fix this problem because they are fine making more money in every situation. People need houses in the US, lets take some of that $75 billion given to pentagon military-industrial contractors for COVID (while they have actually been profiting more this year than last) and instead build housing. Building affordable housing will put people to work with middle class jobs and provide homes to millions of Americans. The solution is to come together to solve our countries problems, as Hasan is advocating for.

[@mcgheekortney]

@@14DaPlaya14 building affordable housing is going to tax us even more because no one is going to build homes if they aren't going to make a profit from it. Thus you will have to get it subsidized from the government and seeing as the government has no money of their own they are just going to take it from us through taxes.

There’s been clear evidence of protesters who were peaceful being shot with less-lethal rounds and gassed. When officers do this and go unpunished, protesting is a valid response. If you can’t judge all cops by all the examples of them abusing power and breaking laws, then why judge all protesters by a handful that break the law?

@Tom Bosson your idea would cost cities, taxpayers, millions in civil suit claims. And since, like you admitted, protesting is a right, then when cities mass arrest groups of protesters to maybe catch a few agitators they are violating those rights.

Larry dominated these two idiots, Hassan lost when asking dumb questions like should we kill illegal immigrants, that’s the same as deporting those here illegally, that costs Money and I guarantee 100% of the people who are for giving illegals citizenship or amnesty would change their minds if they personally became a victim of crime from an illegal alien which leads to death, like say someone’s child being killed by a illegal alien with a gun or DUI car accident.

@@derekjuarez9762 This guy just listens to everything the 1% tells him and gobbles it down. Keep sucking down your corporate owned media you fucking moron.

@@derekjuarez9762 Like, you're completely delusional. If you lie and misrepresent your opponent's arguments, like Larry did here, you get interrupted. You don't get to focus on one thing your opponent didn't even say and get away with it unless the moderator or your opponent let you, and that didn't happen here. "Housing should be decommodified and rent control is just a band-aid" Then Larry just talks about rent control. You people are so verifiably dumb. And this is about homelessness for Christ's sake. Can't you turn off the team sports mindset and get some fucking empathy? People need shelter!

Lmfao!! Hasan Piker owned Larry Elder hard: Elder had nothing concrete against Piker and you can clearly see it. 😂🔥

[@rupert2402]

Why does Larry look like he's about to cry every time Hasan finishes speaking.

[@jivet3919]

Because he knows he’s not a good bullshitter

[@TrumpFanNetwork2]

Like everyone with an IQ over 70, he knows Hassan is one ignorant SOB.
