I never get bored of TMR mocking Rubin's idiocy
He knows why he’s proposing a flat tax, his donors want a flat tax. Dave would never mention a flat tax if the dudes who paid for his house didn’t tell him to.
A flat tax can work but a large percentage of the population would need to pay no tax. Maybe the bottom 30% maybe the bottom 35% whatever.
@@madreese69 because his donors are the only people in the tiny majority who can afford the nation. They’ll never need public hospitals, EMTs, airports, social security, food stamps, Medicare, Medicaid or any other social good. They can afford to privatize those entitlements for themselves so they try to force the rest of us to do the same. They are the human equivalent of piss covered toilet seats.
@@Stockhandle123 No lol...
If the threshold of not paying any taxes was 50k, and you made 49.9k, you would suddenly be making a lot less money if you got a raise.
That is dumb and only stupid people would support such utter nonsense. A progressive tax ensures that you never lose money by getting a raise.
Just remember, Dave's house is haunted by a spectre we all know and love, who cackles madly every time he says something stupid.
There must be a never ending cacophony of cackles.
😢
Somebody has to laugh at his jokes
The Cackle Jackal Dave calls him.
@@RD-zx6py
I heard the Cackle Jackal tackled Dave in an attempt to close Dave’s mouth with spackle.
It was a Cackle Jackal tackle with spackle!
Making fun of Dave Rubin at this point is basically a tribute to Michael.
Edit thanks for the likes. I'll never forget Michael laughing so hard at him he couldn't breathe.
❤️ Totally. If I ever need a good laugh, I think about he and Ana K laughing about Dave's big Ideas.
May I ask who is Michael?
@@harharharharharharharharha240 Michael was Sam's primary co-host for quite a few years on TMR. He also had his own channel where he hosted The Michael Brooks Show. He was a really brilliant and insightful political commentator, and legitimately one of the funniest goddamn people ever to have lived. His loony laugh and sheer childlike joy at mocking Dave Rubin's ineptitude were a regular highlight of TMR. He passed away very unexpectedly in 2020 and is very much missed.
❤️ ya Michael.
@@harharharharharharharharha240look up ‘Michael Brooks Dave Rubin’ and enjoy
@@harharharharharharharharha240 look up Michael brooks. Emma is his replacement after he passed.
“You’re not completely useless, you could be used as a bad example”
Regardless why you do your videos. Thank you. Dave is a troll mouth piece who exposed his evil self in the last resent months.
the only bad thing is it makes me miss Michael brooks.
years you mean
If you can't see unearned income should be illegal, then you shouldn't be discussing how to lead morals.
If you can't see not-for-profit banking can finance our economy, vs for-profits investment, then you shouldn't discuss math.
If you can't see "speculation," banking is not even "For-profit" banking, but a third ponzi scheme gambling casino, then you should not be talking economics.
Social Security should be treated the same as the stockmarcket. Both not-for-profit.
The psychopaths are holding your currency hostage. A not-for-profit banking system will work.
The Glass-Steagall legislation, but this time, arrest them.
I think referring to him as a troll let’s him get away with pretending that his takes are all deceptive and made in bad faith.
Many of Rubin’s positions are legitimately his, because apart from being evil, he genuinely is really thick as well.
Don't worry, Dave, I didn't burn your book. I composted it.
Actually, I didn't pay for it either.
I didn’t burn it or compost it. I walked on by and treated it like it didn’t exist. I bought Stephen King instead.
@@waverlyking6045 Stephen King stories are closer to reality anyway.
Funny how Dabe Ruvin's tax stance has fallen completely flat
Did he get flaccid at the same time? 🤓
Didn't Kansas try a flat tax (while keeping Gucci loopholes) and annihilate their budget and economy? Didn't they tank their school system?
yeah
Yes. And the sad thing is they didn’t learn and won’t learn. They’ll try it again with similar results. Hopefully Kris Kobach, who should have been smart enough to know this would happen, will never become a player on the national stage.
@@NoNameT2T4 see, I think it worked exactly as they intended. They killed one of the best education systems in the country, impoverished a ton of people, and cut their own (and their friends') taxes.
@@br7693ti think, you are correct. It is the ideology of modernized feudal system. They dont want to provide education. They want people be determined by birth.
They did, and Kansas still keeps voting for Republicans at the state level 🙄🤦♂️
Rave Dubin, the perfect example of *strategic idiocy* - thats all these people are. whether they are that dumb or not, its all part of the plan.
Dave Rubin's inner monologue always seems to be...
"People are really excited about and getting behind the ideas I am laying down."
No Dave. Just no.
My favourite part was when he said 'It's Rubin' time' and went on to rube the entire room with IDEAS!
Of course we know that "flat tax" is simply a right wing virtue signal.
A flat tax could make sense, but only if it's on wealth, not income. But, I don't think they want that. The 3 wealthiest Americans own as much wealth as the bottom 50%. Those 3, alone, should be paying the same amount of total taxes, as the bottom 50%.
The criminals and their unearned income virtue signal.
@@jennyanydots2389 That's when the fat in your brain can no longer register ls.
@@TheHuxleyAgnostic That had better be on net worth. If someone has more debt than assets, they should be getting a rebate to help them pay it off.
@@Roxor128no they shouldn’t get a rebate on their debt the top 3 wealthiest people can pay off their debts by liquidating funds held in their multiple homes, cars, boats, art pieces, etc etc. They don’t need a rebate
Single payer healthcare removes the middle man from health care and reduces administrative costs.
But makes government bigger
@jewsco no it doesn't, it reduces corporate bureaucracy
@@jewsco Public goods like healthcare and electricity are utilities, not commodifiable products to be sold for a profit.
@@monorail4252 Nope. There’s more bureaucracy in the government being the middle man, than private corporations. Obama only made insurance companies more profitable.
@@seanm3226 lol...."nope"......medicare works better & cheaper that private corporations: "Studies (Rand) have found that the U.S. could save up $500 billion annually in billing and administrative costs by moving to Medicare for All."
To be fair to little Davy, conservative political discourse is only about chaining buzzwords without logical connection or care for sense. Hence the Donald. He's just not good at hiding it.
I'll never forget when people called Dave Rubin a wounded antelope. Lmao
Winded Envelope. Get it right.
As a gay guy, Rubin proves your sexuality has nothing to do with whether you jump in bed with the very people who don't like what you do in bed.
Almost 60% of individuals make less than $50K. 85% make less than $100K. He'd be disincentivizing marriage with his plan.
I opened up the app and all I saw was It’s Absurd that Dave Rubin Keeps Getting Away with Being So Stupid and I busted a gut laughing.
Boooo! They changed the title.
Wait, what? Dubin just said he didn't care what the tax rate should be, but here he is advocating for the 15% flat. What are you saying, Rave?!
He basically is saying nothing. He is just saying things that sound cool to people who have a poor understanding of economics.
Ya, more Rubin material. Michael would be proud. Screw the haters, keep going after Rubin if you want. Left is best.✌🏾✊🏾
Michael would be proud that MR now directly uses the word "stupid" in reference to Dave. Sam use to have to silence him for it.
making fun of dave rubin is a fun side effect of exposing his freezing cold takes and blatent hypocrisy
The reason he says 50k is he knows 99 percent of his audience makes less then 50 k and like hearing no taxes for them
So you want ppl who are barely making it as is, continue to pay taxes? Sounds progressive
The saddest man in America
Oh, there are sadder, (hi Larry Kudlow)
a flat tax is regressive because of the diminishing marginal utility of money -- it was covered great in the book by Ian Hacking they used in second year at UofT: Probability and Inductive Logic
Doing a thousand videos of Rubin’s idiocy is a great start.
It's weird that Sam obsesses about Dave Ruben so much.
@@daniellove162well, dave is more entertaining than other right-wingers, is he not?
My personal favorite video of dunking on Dave Rubin had to be Sam and company were commenting on Dave having T J Sotomeyer on his show, and then T.J. discovering Dave Rubin was gay (T.J: “He got a husband ?!? _Noooo !!_
I shook his hand !!!, why didn’t you tell me !!! (he was gay)” High level ideas indeed 🤣🤣
@@MZBS639 - He’s a lame distraction.
Please never stop.
This is 2023 America. Things are different now. People embrace stupidity.
Let’s Goooooooooo Billionaires! 😒
Sam has 1.4M subs, so yeah.
@@eitan461 right! Doubt any of them believe t rump will be reinstated any day before the next election or that there's a pedo ring operating out of a pizza restaurant in the DC metro area. In fact, I bet most of them are still waiting for the many times promised evidence of election fraud.
MAGA people embrace stupidity.
Everyone else that isn't MAGA, not so much.
Pizza, American cheese, envelopes, paper, vinyl records and books and novels under 200 pages. It's a tax attack on the working class Dave.
@@jennyanydots2389 Require full asset confiscation for all life sentences and you'd have that effectively. If it later turns out the conviction was wrong, you can always give them a pile of cash of the same value, plus a little extra to make up for the erroneous time in prison.
I love the duo of Emma and Sam
Ahhh the flat tax. I remember hearing about this in 2000 when Steve Forbes was still relevant.
I'm going to steal a joke from the right wing. Dave's tax identifies as flat.
Like Dylan Mulvaney's Chest. 😮
You stole the one 'joke' the right has at the minute.
Rave Dubin likes things simplified. He might be interested in a Flat Earth so his brain doesn’t go into Recovery Mode.
Bwahahahahahahaha 🤣🤣
Now Jimmy Dore has gone full on Alex Jones was right. The TYT pipeline sure turns out some talent.
Jimmy thinks J6 was an inside job. Dude is full blown right-wing useful idiot
Rubin likes what rich people like.
Michael Brooks & Larry King are watching this together in heaven and are crying of laughter! IDEAS!
Going from 0% on the first 50.000 earned and then up to 15% after that is stil a progressive tax. the Dave Rubins of the world really needs to know that...someone please tell them.
At least he's not with Bret weinstein my brain is still in recovery mode trying to figure out what that was.
Yayyy! More Dave Rubin!
I’m a socialist. I sat down and figured out how a flat tax could possibly work.
It takes about thirty years to get to the point where it could work, but it requires some pretty heavy-handed taxing between now and then. Eliminate the marginal rates entirely at the start and tax 20% up to $20k per year income & increase the tax rate by 10% at $50k, $100k, $250k, $500k and $1 million. That would make $1 million per year income would pay 70% in taxes. Remove the top rate every five years, resulting in a flat 20% in thirty years.
Capital gains taxes should be replaced by a 5% sales tax on financial instruments (stocks, bonds and debt sold as annuities). That would mean a single $1 trillion trading day on Wall Street would generate $50 billion in revenue. That would eliminate the need for IRS agents to examine tax filings for people who own stock, because the tax would be at the point of sale for the buyer.
Set a progressive maximum wage instead of screwing around with minimum wage laws. If the top wage that is deductible from payroll can only be 100:1 compared to the lowest wage of a company, the CEO’s $25 million salary would require the lowest-paid employee to earn $250k per year to be deductible.
Prize taxes should be eliminated, because that is income. Gift taxes should be eliminated, because that is income.
Estate taxes should be 100% on anything requiring legal documentation to prove ownership. Your grandmother’s silverware would be exempt, but you would have to take out a mortgage to keep her house, car or stock portfolio. That stops corporate empires from being inherited. Share of stock coming into government ownership that way would go into the Social Security Hedge Fund to help fund Social Security restructuring.
Corporate bailouts should include a transfer of voting stock at current market value for the bailout funds. That would mean stock buybacks after receiving a bailout may just nationalize the company. Those shares would likewise go into the Social Security Hedge Fund.
A Basic Income, paid through a restructured Social Security Administration of $400 per week to every citizen would guarantee that every citizen paid an income tax. Your social security number would be your account number at a Social Security Administration Bank. By 48 years old, more than $1 million would have been deposited in your account. Just the 20% income tax on that $400 per week would generate $1.4 trillion in revenue annually.
And that is just the tax portions of it. The ending of FICA deductions would increase paychecks by 7% annually before taxes. The FICA refund at the beginning of a basic Income would see a huge boost in the economy right away.
You have to create a credit-based economy instead of a debt-based economy in order to have a flat tax. Strengthen the consumer base and the GDP will soar.
Now ask me how to fix healthcare and housing costs.
I guess one argument is that the flat tax would close tax loopholes. But it would also end deductions and tax credits including for charitable donations, energy efficiency and renewables, healthcare expenses above 7.5% of income, having dependent children, etc.
All those kids in school years ago who said, “I hate math, I don’t get it.” Grew up to be conservatives!!!!!
They are inherently allergic to logic
I'd say the words 'flat' and 'tax' appear in his book on separate pages. Dave Rbin and the word 'policies' should never be in the same sentence. He's a grifter, an unserious person.
I know this is a reupload and so it may have already been corrected during the show, but the woman Rubin is talking to isn't Lauren Southern. Her name is Isabel Brown, and if I remember correctly she got her start with PragerU and TPUSA.
Does anyone else think it’s odd that he isn’t at Dailywire with his good buddy Ben Shapiro?
I mean no. Ben has a certain bigotry that will exclude Dave. Ben will overlook Candace’s cardinal sun of being black because she’ll say the stuff he understands he doesn’t have the optics for.
@@GrimReader That’s what I was getting at. The fact that he’s gay is the only reason they’re not offering him a gazillion dollars, like they did to Steven Crowder.
I used to genuinely enjoy his interviews - it was like watching Ali G. He does too many monologs now.
Gwan the majority report. Thanks for everything you do, you should have millions more subs IMHO
Most people make less than 50k
There was also the Herman Canes tax plan 999.
It's easier to mathematically prove there is no god than it is to justify a flat tax.
I'm almost ashamed to admit that I coincidentally fell down a hole earlier today re-watching old TMR Dave Rubin videos. ALMOST. 😅
What's the opposite of a rabbit hole? You climbed the Jacob's Ladder of Dave Rubin videos.
Dave Rubin really is the “Doofus Rick” of the intellectual darkweb guys.
They speak so confidently about topics they haven't done even 10 minutes of research on. Like Matt Walsh with his "millions of kids on puberty blockers" who's suddenly an expert who can testify in Congress ...
Dunning and Kruger wrote a paper about these clowns, no way they anticipated the extent of the phenomenon though ...
I wish nothing but bad things upon Dave Rubin, and I feel no remorse for it.
As a flat tax enthusist, a flat tax only works if it's the baseline tax for capital gains.
Great video as always but slight correction @ 10:50. That is definitely NOT Lauren Southern lmao
I became more conservative when they showed the tax brackets. Lol
*How come ONLY Dave Rubin knew about his book that he himself supposedly wrote and he himself is preening about???????*
A 15% flat tax on what exactly? Income? How are we measuring income? What about capital gains? Is that 15%?
That would end up raising taxes on most people.
For some reason Conservative grifting is great for people who fail up. Lol
Gotta love the Doobs…
Thank you for reminding me why I never took a Political Science or Economics class.
Mmmm! Flat earth theory? Flat tax theory? Just asking questions. Connecting the dots....
Rubin talks about a flat tax because he is a simpleton.
If the flat tax were exempt from necessities it might be an interesting idea to
Throw in a fixed-size rebate big enough to cover them, then. At some point, you'll hit an income where the rebate and the tax are equal and anyone making more will be paying more tax than they get in rebate.
Love these Rubin videos. Keep em coming. Tim Poole too! "Whoopsie"! Lol. As Tim said. I love Sam and Emma's comments! And Emma's "discussion" w Tim Fool. Emma is a star!☆☆☆☆
Dave’s looking for a babysitter tomorrow night, you busy?
At this point, every Dave Rubin statement is a "glib position".
I recall Mike Huckabee calling for a flat tax
My personal finance professor in college was pretty wealthy and he was against a 15% flat tax because his *effective* tax rate was lower.
Republicans…. We stand for the middle class. Also, let’s tax the middle class more.
So happy to see Dave has became a reoccurring topic again.
3:48 guys!! In the Fair Tax, you are taxed purely on consumption of goods and services and nothing else. No income tax, no corporate tax, and the first $40,000 of earnings are not taxed at all.
I’ll never forget this beautiful Michael Brooks moment. You guys showed a clip of Joe Rogan talking to David Pakman, and Reuben comes up, and Joe calls him cognitively limited. Michael Brooks, with a twinkle in his eye, says ‘Well, there would be an ethical issue with making fun of Dave Reuben if he is indeed a touched individual.’
Beautiful.
As someone that went through the school system as Learning disabled, I see no ethical issues and I have no qualms about making fun of Dave Rubin’s stupidity, hell you can even call Dave Rubin and his “high level ideas” the “R bomb” that one can’t use (it rhymes with “De-carded”) you have my blessing
Dave “Gladio Daddio” Rubin
So basically Rubin is proposing the current tax system!
No Davey, your billionaire oil driller donors should be taxed at least 80% above a certain threshold, full stop. Flat-tax is what THEY told you to espouse, you're not fooling anyone.
I'm a big apples guy, but I don't about what kind of apples. lol
Make this easy. Ban all sales tax. 25% to 40% tax on any money received over 250k.
The flat tax is an idea that sounds good at first (which is why i used to be in favor of it) , but dig deeper you realize it's faulty.
If he's questioning whether the government has right to tax income he needs to get rid of the 16th amendment.
Here is the problem with right wing economics. They had a great idea when the top tax rates were over 90%. Cut the tax as it was hurting economic growth. They did and Thatcher and Regan won big. Tax rates are not hurting growth anymore, but the right has no other ideas. Cutting taxes just increases deficits and they can't cut spending because of political reasons. So they have nothing to offer except for the fading memories of 19 for you and 1 for me...
I think the fact my childhood was spent with promises of how much better it would be if we cut taxes and privatized and literally none of it was true and none of the evidence supports it.
It not only shows them to be fools but exposes them as bad faith. Unfortunately the media refuses to admit that and we keep getting told failed policies are "moderate" because capitalism.
Been saying financial markets is gambling for years.
A "flat tax" is like a "universal meal".
All Americans will get a box with the same food. Babies, athletes, sick, old, in Alaska, in Death Valley, skinny, fat, allergic, Kosher, ... everyone gets the same meal
Just need a property tax. Every other tax is regressive and just a pass through to customers, employees, or shareholders.
There's a really simple patch for a flat tax to fix the regressiveness: a fixed-size rebate for all.
If the rebate is 50% of GDP Per Capita and the tax rate 50%, then anyone making exactly GDP Per Capita will get just as much in rebate as they pay in tax, for a net rate of zero. If they make more, the rebate is less than what they pay, and if they make less, it's more than what they're paying. Someone with zero income will end up getting 50% of GDP Per Capita overall, effectively setting a minimum after-tax income.
Here’s the problem I see with tax rates AND minimum wage rates…
Because we most often have inflation, naming a specific amount for anything in either of these categories has to be discussed and increased (or not,) every so often.
Here’s a thought:
base minimum wage on a multiple percentage of the poverty rate.
You want to make a flat tax? Exempt people who have an income lower than what a person would make working full time at a minimum wage rate as figured above.
Prices do not stay the same. They are constantly fluctuating. Why in the hell does ANYONE think that saying, “You won’t have to do this if you make $50k or less…blah, blah, blah…” is reasonable long term? Why can we not fix these things LONG term?!?
Oh my god he has 2M subs. That's mental. What does he provide these people?
He did have a good idea of a tax free threshold. In Australia it's $18200. I think that number should be the average cost of necessities in your country.
I mean if rich people dont pay any taxes now, why would they pay a flat tax. Especially if it is income tax since they game that system ala "i have no income" because they are paid in shares and shit.
Another banger of a video!
0:02 And we thank you all for your sacrifice.
What is the quality control like with conservatives if Rubin is still a thing?
Seder is so jealous of Pool and Rubin.
@@ribbrascal That’s a really bad punch line. Just sayin’.
@@PaulAngileri It's not a joke.
They have no intellectual quality control. It's not necessary for a right-wing audience.
@@ribbrascalit is whether you intended it or not.
He says that because he knows that with the right in this country it's a magic phrase .
While we argue over nonsense with each other…our government has been sold us out.
100% of money collected in exchange for anything needs to be returned to the government for equal redistribution. Any other method is incorrect.
We only tax work to a certain point with the SS tax, after a certain amount, you don't pay into Social Security.
I like flat white coffees. How about flat white coffees for every one? You get a flat white, you get a flat white! You get a flat white!!
You want to make taxes simple? Have the government send you a bill.
You want to make taxes fair? Make everyone's taxes public.
We would have simple taxes overnight and fair taxes within 2 years.
i believe the first time someone proposed a flat tax was jerry brown in 1992. not sure what the details were
