The Reconciliation Bill started at 10 trillion then 6 trillion and now 3.5 trillion. The Reconciliation Bill is over 10 YEARS. This bill has something in it to help everyone in the US. And, the bill has those 1% corporations that pay no taxes to pay their fair share.
How does it help me, Jetta? Can u be specific? how specifically does it make them pay their share? I cant help but feel like rich people are getting all of us to pay for their infrastructure after getting huge tax cuts Are u sure this is helping poor people? Other than giving us more work to do for what will amount to less expendable income I think this helps the 1% who use the infrastructure who are now getting everyone else to pay for it
@@randyrogers8201 You actually have it backwards, when the Federal govt spends it is in a deficit, which means the economy is in surplus. Red ink for the federal govt is black ink for the economy. Govt spending puts money into the economy, giving people MORE expendable income not less. It just depends on where the Govt spending is distributed. Taxes don't go to fund Fed Govt programs.
@@randyrogers8201 Well, you're holding a secret in your pocket to let you say, however anyone answers, that the bill won't help you. To answer, in terms of 'you' specifically, you'll have to say a little about yourself, such as: how do you make your money? How much money do you have? Because everything is relative. As for how does it make the rich pay their share, the bill is intended to pay for itself, that is to say, pay for all the areas where it spends money to build or fund projects that help the American people, by raising taxes on corporations and the very wealthiest percentiles in the country. You ask 'how it will help poor people?' The answer is, by funding many programs which directly go to help lower-income families, such as funding childcare... which allows mothers to return to work instead of staying home to act as unpaid childcare. This one aspect alone creates jobs for low-income and low-education Americans (in childcare) and simultaneously allows low-income families to increase their resources. The 3.5 Trillion version of the bill is expected to create 10 million jobs in clean energy development and infrastructure. Additional jobs will be created by rebuilding and repairing our transportation infrastructure--roads and bridges. Other areas the bill will help the poor includes low-income housing, education, and health care. Your statement 'more work to do for what will amount to less expendable income' is nonsense, unless you have some sort of numbers to back it up. What are you even comparing to in order to say 'less'? What is 'less' than what? Are you trying to say that 'by creating jobs' the bill will give the poor 'more work'? That's pretty much the point. More jobs, more work, more choices, more options, more opportunities, higher pay, more benefits, more support.

Better idea would be to hold his corporate donors responsible. They are the root of the problem. The voters who put Manchin there were probably misled, as happens all to often in politics.
@@Kritiker313 exactly, regular folks are not inform and engaged in simple politics. Legislators represents their people and we as a whole (the country)do not look responsible at all.
The American people are so tired of Manchin and cinema. the president needs to do a two track process on them. we'll call it reconciliation and bipartisan extraction of the two senators for Abuse of office, Abuse of Power. Let's just take them out of the equation, that way they can continue to be shady.
HE NEEDS TO HARASSED EVERY SECOND OF HIS WAKING DAY UNTIL HE SEES THE LIGHT .... SERIOUSLY KEEP THE ADDS, PROTESTS ON HIM UNTIL EVERYONE KNOW HOW AND HIS FAMILY IS CROOKED. THEY SHOULD GO AFTER THE DAUGHTER FOR HER CORRUPTNESS AS WELL. THERE NEEDS TO BE A CONSEQUENCE TO HIS ACTIONS.
It amazes me how some politicians don't want to spent tax payers money on tax payers but big companies and the military industrial complex gets whatever they want.
If we cut the military industrial complex budget by just 10% (including the amount we give to countries like Israel and Saudi Arabia) we could fund almost every domestic program in the United States, but too many politicians across the political spectrum don't want to do that.
True but it’s irrelevant. I am sure manchin has other reasons, or his donors do. One would be increased taxation of his donors. Another may have to do with obstructing any wins for liberals.
GOP voting for: Entitlements for Wealthy Socialism for the Rich Welfare for the Corporations AND Democrat/Progressive voting for: Children, elderly, homeless, and working poor
And the democrats will end up with no legislation at all. I'm happy that the progressives are killing their own party since it guarantees a Trump win. Beautiful how a vocal minority can ruin things for everyone.
Manchin supports entitlements... for corporations. So much of our taxes go to the wealthy that we should all be allowed to write off whatever we pay in taxes as a “charitable donation” to the richest Americans. It’s insane.
But wen it comes to regular working people he needs to make sure they don't get a extra 300 dollars ! We pay our taxes but we gotta get means-testing to get a dime!
if that true he would have voted for this/ Toll roads? administrative fees? cuts to other programs This bill is a dream for corporations.. all kinds of federal spending with no cost to them. The only thing corporations want is low taxes. This Bill had no new taxes for them regressively funded infrastructure bills are not good for the working-class
Just take the money from his state and give only to states that their senator voted for the infrastructure bill. The senators that didn't vote for it don't get popoo from the bill.
That's OUR taxpayer money, it's time to start spending ON US!!! We don't want our money going overseas to kill brown and black people!!! We, the People are in need of REAL help!!!
I'M SICK OF SINEMA & MUNCHIN! THEY MUST GO! PRIMARY OR RECALL THEM! IF WE CAN RECALL A CA GOVERNOR, WHY CAN'T WE RECALL THESE SENATORS? #recallmanchin #recallsinema #holdtheline
Manchin and Sinema are conservative or corporate Democrats, not moderate or centrist Democrats. Real moderates; like Klobuchar in the Senate, or Spanberger in the House; are not garnering or causing this attention or drama.
YES DO NOT USE THE WORD MODERATE FOR CORP DEM. THEY ARE CORPORATE DEMOCRATS START CALLING THEM THAT. and don't let them shift the conversation to social issues to divert attention
He's not even that - he's a GOPnik (who are all corporate kissasses) masquerading as a Democrat, clearly because he fears he couldn't get elected as a GOPnik.

Still, If people Like Cenk hadn't voted for the Reagan era tax cuts, and hadn't ignored the Trump-era tax cuts Maybe we could do this without asking the poor to pay for it Given the current tax policy That is what ur all doing right now, incase u didn't know

Why doesn't Biden run tv ads in West Virginia and Arizona telling the people of these states to call Machin & Sinema to vote yes or they are voted out. SIMPLE!!
After not making 1 complaint about throwing away 20yrs and trillions on another country, on their people, which was all for nothing, total waste of money, lives, and time that could've been spent here...
Sinema said. “I do not trade my vote for political favors - I vote based only on what is best for my state and the country. THAT IS THE BIGGEST LOAD OF BULLSKIT THAT HAS EVER BEEN SAID.....BY ANYBODY......EVER.
Neither Manchin or Sinema have any idea what the are doing other than saying whatever puts money in their pockets. These two need to be taken out behind the wood shed.

Rethuglicon=Hypocrite. That party has 100% of their people all in. Therefore, Manchin= Rethuglicon.
"...if it walks like a duck, talks like a duck...".
Maybe it’s time to hold the voters who put him there accountable.
Better idea would be to hold his corporate donors responsible. They are the root of the problem. The voters who put Manchin there were probably misled, as happens all to often in politics.
@@Kritiker313 exactly, regular folks are not inform and engaged in simple politics. Legislators represents their people and we as a whole (the country)do not look responsible at all.
Is Manchin going to go as high (for the American people) as what his daughter jacked up the price of insulin to be?
Or the amount she walked away with? 37 million.
where are the voters
it is so sad that manchin has so much power to affect so many lives, as he plays on your yacht...where are the voters
where are the voters@@GrammyGray638
The American people are so tired of Manchin and cinema. the president needs to do a two track process on them. we'll call it reconciliation and bipartisan extraction of the two senators for Abuse of office, Abuse of Power. Let's just take them out of the equation, that way they can continue to be shady.
Imagine a republican doing that to TRUMP!?
Nonya. McCain did that to Trump lol
God damn I love this channel. I knew y'all existed for years but only recently started listening
Y'all are amazing
Vote progressive. It is the way.
where are the voters... but that is too late ..phone you gop rep ...picket ...scream...WE WANT THIS NOW...you vote NO we will vote NO to YOU!
Makes sense for Manchin to pick the bill’s final price tag, he’s the president.
He is the one with the power.
Please!!!!
where are the voters... but that is too late ..phone you gop rep ...picket ...scream...WE WANT THIS NOW...you vote NO we will vote NO to YOU!
HE NEEDS TO HARASSED EVERY SECOND OF HIS WAKING DAY UNTIL HE SEES THE LIGHT .... SERIOUSLY KEEP THE ADDS, PROTESTS ON HIM UNTIL EVERYONE KNOW HOW AND HIS FAMILY IS CROOKED. THEY SHOULD GO AFTER THE DAUGHTER FOR HER CORRUPTNESS AS WELL. THERE NEEDS TO BE A CONSEQUENCE TO HIS ACTIONS.
It amazes me how some politicians don't want to spent tax payers money on tax payers but big companies and the military industrial complex gets whatever they want.
If we cut the military industrial complex budget by just 10% (including the amount we give to countries like Israel and Saudi Arabia) we could fund almost every domestic program in the United States, but too many politicians across the political spectrum don't want to do that.
honestly you could cut the military budget by 50% and still completely fund the military. How much good would 500 billion a year do for the people? :D
True but it’s irrelevant.
I am sure manchin has other reasons, or his donors do.
One would be increased taxation of his donors.
Another may have to do with obstructing any wins for liberals.
1-5 Trillion --are you kidding----The value of that in today's dollars is 1.5 cents .!
GOP voting for:
Entitlements for Wealthy
Socialism for the Rich
Welfare for the Corporations
AND
Democrat/Progressive voting for:
Children, elderly, homeless, and working poor
And the democrats will end up with no legislation at all. I'm happy that the progressives are killing their own party since it guarantees a Trump win. Beautiful how a vocal minority can ruin things for everyone.
To all corrupt politicians; We will remember, count on that!!
Manchin supports entitlements... for corporations. So much of our taxes go to the wealthy that we should all be allowed to write off whatever we pay in taxes as a “charitable donation” to the richest Americans.
It’s insane.
Our taxes don't go to the wealthy taxes don't provide funds for the Federal govt to spend.
ABSOLUTELY
But wen it comes to regular working people he needs to make sure they don't get a extra 300 dollars ! We pay our taxes but we gotta get means-testing to get a dime!
Joe and Kyrsten, I think you held your cards about thirty seconds too long.
where are the voters
Joe Manchurian a true public servant of the corporations .
where are the voters... but that is too late ..phone you gop rep ...picket ...scream...WE WANT THIS NOW...you vote NO we will vote NO to YOU!
if that true he would have voted for this/
Toll roads? administrative fees? cuts to other programs
This bill is a dream for corporations.. all kinds of federal spending with no cost to them.
The only thing corporations want is low taxes. This Bill had no new taxes for them
regressively funded infrastructure bills are not good for the working-class
Nice to see the optimism, Cenk.
What's great to see is that it's not just the Progressive agenda, it's the Biden agenda! A lot of the Sanders platform has become mainstream now!
Correction its the sORROS AGENDA. Spend more so that china wont feel offended
@@giorgarospanagakis9573 Is it painful to be this dumb? Or, are you just some foreign bot/troll?
Nothing is more entitled than taking donor cash and not supporting the needs of the people who put you in office.
Just take the money from his state and give only to states that their senator voted for the infrastructure bill. The senators that didn't vote for it don't get popoo from the bill.
That would reduce the cost.
That's OUR taxpayer money, it's time to start spending ON US!!! We don't want our money going overseas to kill brown and black people!!! We, the People are in need of REAL help!!!
Glad you are bringing everything out on Manchin and Senima they need to be removed
where are the voters... but that is too late ..phone you gop rep ...picket ...scream...WE WANT THIS NOW...you vote NO we will vote NO to YOU!
Did Manchin actually say he has a heart????
Okay, Joe. Heart? Definitely NO soul.
He had a soul. It was part of the price. His soul and his humanity.
"But Coal would take the biggest hit, and I'm heavily invested in coal." J.M.
😄😄😄. Ikr! Just say it!
I'M SICK OF SINEMA & MUNCHIN! THEY MUST GO! PRIMARY OR RECALL THEM! IF WE CAN RECALL A CA GOVERNOR, WHY CAN'T WE RECALL THESE SENATORS? #recallmanchin #recallsinema #holdtheline
Manchin and Sinema are conservative or corporate Democrats, not moderate or centrist Democrats. Real moderates; like Klobuchar in the Senate, or Spanberger in the House; are not garnering or causing this attention or drama.
How is it that funding infrastructure = entitlement???
Corporations telling their bought puppets in congress what to say!!
YES DO NOT USE THE WORD MODERATE FOR CORP DEM. THEY ARE CORPORATE DEMOCRATS START CALLING THEM THAT. and don't let them shift the conversation to social issues to divert attention
He's not even that - he's a GOPnik (who are all corporate kissasses) masquerading as a Democrat, clearly because he fears he couldn't get elected as a GOPnik.
The media needs to blatantly call them out about the dark money donors and the conflict of interest that they both have. I was amazed to see msnbc,Bloomberg, and others put them on blast. Totally shocked to see someone besides T.Y.T. saying something to them. 💪🏻🦾💪🏻🦾
Still, If people Like Cenk hadn't voted for the Reagan era tax cuts, and hadn't ignored the Trump-era tax cuts
Maybe we could do this without asking the poor to pay for it
Given the current tax policy
That is what ur all doing right now,
incase u didn't know
@@1shreckydude Maybe if Cenk hadn't voted for the Reagon Era tax cuts and ignored the Trump-era tax cuts it wouldn't be the poor paying for this bill
Totally blown away that none of TYTs supporters have said anything about it
Such a betrayal of basic progressive values.
Its almost like none of u are actual progressives
Ur literally watching a Reagon Era Republican turned neo-lib claiming to be a progresive
JOE 'S gotta go !!!!!
Whenever a politician talks about entitlement mentality, I keep thinking about a kettle and pot calling one another black.
This is the 1st time in a generation that progressive’s have been in such a strategic and advantageous position and they are playing it beautifully, So far.
ABSOLUTELY.
Do you know what has to happen ,? Joe Manchin has to be visited by the ghosts of Christmas -PAST---PRESENT AND FUTURE.....And believe me---he will not like the future...!
3.5 T, is what is needed and we know your coal will pay part of it because the rich will pay for it like the poor have been paying all this time
How about we remove all the funding slated for West Virginia. Would he be OK with that
well there's plenty of states screwing this country, more like the people who were elected by the voters so that would be a bad idea. IT would be easier if citizens would vote better.
Like she said he don't need none of the things personally he is a Millionaire.
are his constituents
It's selfish and unrealistic, but at this point I'd rather see Manchin's daughter in prison for her epipen scheme than get the bills passed.
so true!
I know right? WTH is wrong with people? Greed is a terrible thing!
the daughter does not fall far from the tree...where are the voters
HOLD THE LINE PROGRESSIVES
Joe Manchin:
"Now if you'll excuse me, I've got corporate pay-off money to spend.."
I’m all for his senator salary being cut and him not receiving a dime of tax payers money. I vote yes on that.
He makes 5 times his salary from his oil and coal investments.
Everyone needs to protest around Manchin’s yacht again.
Get in Mancin and sinema's face until they budge
As a WV. democrat, I`ve never felt so abandoned by my party. We have no representation in our own state.
Run! I would donate! There are people who organize against them get involved.
He's a pill pushing mob boss
@@pragmaticpolitics1413 I agree and I am involved, I supported Paula Jean Swearengin and hope she runs as an independent next election.
@@rogerbowes4746 unless WV has ranked choice, a third party is a futile effort. Register democrat and vote in the primaries. That’s when it’s decided whether the general will be a lesser of two evils situation or a situation in which you actually have a good candidate to vote for.
You can always tell Boy Chin is lying because he interrupts A TON.
Boy Chin!!! HAHAHAHAAHA!!
Just like the orange guy Trump used to do.
never doubted them.......
He is a Republican in all but name.
Pretty disgusting when there is a politician who is in office only to destroy the party they are in.
Don't feel too bad. the other team has Trump.
Sadly everyone has a price
where are the voters... but that is too late ..phone you gop rep ...picket ...scream...WE WANT THIS NOW...you vote NO we will vote NO to YOU!
Why doesn't Biden run tv ads in West Virginia and Arizona telling the people of these states to call Machin & Sinema to vote yes or they are voted out. SIMPLE!!
He is moving the Coal Post all the time.
Thank you Cenk.
You guys are amazing. I appreciate the work you put in
Manchin is seriously getting on my ENTIRE nerve.
Joe, Joe, Joe... The American people see through your B.S... Do the right thing, for the People!!!
After not making 1 complaint about throwing away 20yrs and trillions on another country, on their people, which was all for nothing, total waste of money, lives, and time that could've been spent here...
So proud of the progressives!!!!
Sinema said. “I do not trade my vote for political favors - I vote based only on what is best for my state and the country.
THAT IS THE BIGGEST LOAD OF BULLSKIT THAT HAS EVER BEEN SAID.....BY ANYBODY......EVER.
I love corey bush .. True queen
Neither Manchin or Sinema have any idea what the are doing other than saying whatever puts money in their pockets. These two need to be taken out behind the wood shed.
Shine the light on thier corrupt assets
Thank you for the exposer
trump and cruz have complimented manchin..He is their hero.....
where are the voters... but that is too late ..phone you gop rep ...picket ...scream...WE WANT THIS NOW...you vote NO we will vote NO to YOU!
I wish just for ONCE a mainstream reporter would just say, "Bullshit, sir. I cover the United States Congress... believe me, I know Bullshit when I hear it."
‘Entitlement mentality’. Nailed it, Joe.
Yes it's obvious corporate freeloader CEO's feel entitled to not pulling their dead,fat, lazy, weight and want to keep their free handouts instead of allowing we the people from literally killing ourselves slowly by working 3 jobs to just make ends meet make a living instead. Thank you for pointing this fact out even though it's quite real you are completely against what I just said possibly?
American people don't know what it is to be in title. Been suffering for a long time bridge caving in, buildings caving in, all why big business make record profits for years. Poor climate, we're all going to pay for it
@@Titan-zn3fs He’s a terrible human being projecting his own failings. I’m completely with you, my friend.
Question is..."EXACTLY WHAT does Manchin's $1.5T cover?
I understand President Biden's $3.5T is NOT borrowed, so why is Manchin upset or bothered?
If the Dems lose the senate next year I hope him and Sinema will get blame for it because they want to be the center of attention!
When Big Dark Money and Corruption is in control...
Republicans have given the rich all the money for years and years. Can we just try to give it to the working class (aka the people who keep this economy going) one time? Let's do it one time just to see what happens.
Thanks!
OF COURSE HED VOTE FOR IT!! Is his Corporate Give Away Bill!!
where are the voters
How do you uphold the law in a society where the most corrupt are the "lawmakers?"😎 WE must kick them all out in 2022 and 2024! No matter your party affiliation, vote for YOUR own wellbeing for once! Not for these evil crooks to keep kick you in the guts!
THANK YOU, Ana. She (sinama) is a poorly dressed troll.
Sinema is giving The Magic School Bus teacher a bad reputation...
Funny how he didn't have a problem with voting for trump's 7.4 trillion dollar increase but when it comes to spending it on the Country itself and it's people suddenly he has cold feet.
Thank you progressives for standing strong. Never give in we are counting on you ❤️💜❤️💜❤️💜
He's so full of it!
