Time for a Constitutional Amendment to enforce TERM LIMITS!!!! The framers of the Constitution would deplore any person being a Professional Statesman such as we see today who used to work for free as elected officials and for single terms for the most part! Who ever fucked that up needs to be called out! Can anyone list the bills put forth that have benefited the entierty of American citizens and not just a select few by Pelosi, Schumer, McConnel, et all, over the past quarter century?
Congress made the bills. Maybe have Congress skip 10 years of their paycheck.
Why call it a "debt ceiling"? With the way they keep raising it, it isn't a ceiling at all.
@@salanzaldi4551 did biden said something like that
@Jay Killjoy so be it
I think we can all agree that would be awesome
Some women are delaying having children because of this 3.5 trillion China driven bill.
I feel like we are getting back to taxation without representation. That's what started this country. A powerful motive that cannot be ignored.
Tea party.
We’re not getting back to it’s already here
Been there a long time .
They put a bill in the spending bill thatgg gives millions to numerous community organizations. These community organizations have NO accountability, But at election time they will harvest votes and steal elections.
Freedom of speech, Freedom of Religion, the right to bear arms, etc. Have all been underminded, everything that makes this country great and separates us from the rest of the planet is being stripped & eroded away from the inside.
Senator Kennedy is one of the few people in Congress standing between the American People and tyranny.
We're being driven into the ground by freeloaders that think breadlines are romantic. When nothing is being produced, wealth can only come from the taking. Buy BTC
Thank you Louisiana.❤️
Here in La. we love him but he is up for re-election soon and a Demoncrat is running against him. God forbid Sen. Kennedy to lose. We don't need another fascist and thief in D.C.
Kennedy is a unwavering Patriot!
Add Rand Paul to your assessment
Since none of those SOBs have to worry about inflation they don’t care about us little people. No one in congress should be paid a single penny.
Sadly working for the government used to be voluntary. Now it's all greed.
I agree! No more pay, watch the need for term limits go away 😊
Democrats has Yellen in their pockets
It's true ! They just spend our money without thought and then pay themselves more. How does Pelosi who makes 350,000 a yr suddenly have 17 million? I want her financial manager
@Coon Hunter#1 socialism is touted to be equality lol. It means everyone not in government is equally poor and must obey the law. Socialism is when there s a 2 party system. The ultra rich and the dirt poor
John Kennedy admits he hasn't been around as long as she has... I almost spit my drink out🤣🤣🤣
John Kennedy is 69 & Janet is 75 look it up. This is what politics does to a person.
Lol I did spit my drink out 👐
He said he hasn’t been around “this place” as long as she has - meaning Washington.
Awesome comment on John Kennedy’s part. Lol 😂
All I heard was;- "Aren't you getting a bit old for this, Janet dear".
Why does nobody say that the out-of-control spending is "catastrophic" ?
@@labratsparkles4446 what? You do know that the massive spending by the Democrats, in the trillions of $$$, has pushed us into inflation...
Because then the democrats would have to say they were wrong.. Just like they southern border.. Its a crisis, but they stayed with calling at a challenge....
@@labratsparkles4446 Whether or not you actually believe that, is irrelevant. I refuse to believe that even some random dipshit on a RUclips comment section is too stupid to understand that this is printed money they're discussing. It doesn't exist currently, and would need to be printed into existence. It doesn't take a slide rule to figure out what happens to the value of the existing money supply, when you add even more to the pile.
Stop being a partisan jackass, and contemplate reality. This is a failure of all politicians, Republicans and Democrats alike. There is no ground on which to stand to defend the Democrat Party in this nonsense.
You a Democrat man?? Don’t be stupid
you missed the welfare for billionaires and 7 trillion of debt during the trump admin
the inflation is result of trade constrictions ......do to covid ......next time you have a thought , let it go

@@SirManfly hello how are you doing?

@@SirManfly they keep voting for Janet Yellen???
Dude; US Inflation will more likely be 5.25% by the end of the year, and that is partly because stock unavailability ahead driving even higher prices. Gas is up what 80% since Trump was in office?
Inflation is not even 4%, what a lying shmuck Janet Yellen is. The CPI reports it at about 5.2% year over year. However they pick and choose what is represented in the CPI therefore even 5.2% is an under statement. Just look at how home and vehicle prices shot up about 40% while groceries and miscellaneous monthly bills shot up 10%. No wonder there are supply chain issues, from a domestic and foreign trade stand point it’s hard for logistics and shipping companies to settle on inflated transportation rates. This rates are what squeeze the supply chains and force many manufacturers to delay production due to missing necessary components.
The money this government spends is absolute insanity,it really is out of control....

That woman should not have the title "Honorable" before her name.

Seriously, if there was a statue of Alexis de Tocqueville, and there may be somewhere, Antifa and BLM would tear it down. These communist thugs want to destroy Western civilization and remake it as a communist "paradise." Except all they will create is a communist hell hole. The average delusional liberal would also say that it's good when the public gets bribed with government money. They're crying for more stimulus and universal basic income right now. It never ends with these people. They create the monetary system that caused this whole problem and then they just want to print money to infinity as the solution. It would be laughable if it weren't so incredibly dangerous.

@@russf6572 So what you're saying is that you're glad that you don't have to be one of the ones who does something about it, but you're sickened that nobody else has decided to make that sacrifice. If you don't want to be one of the people who gives up everything they care about, most likely including their own life, to start the process you've described, then perhaps you shouldn't be so hard on anyone else who chooses to make that same decision. In fact, I would contend that you've lived your life, and have significantly less to lose than most of the people whom you hold in contempt.
Stop whining about nothing being done, and do it yourself.
I just retuned from grocery shopping. News flash: inflation has not tapered off.
Yeah it is getting depressing to go grocery shopping. Every week is more expensive than the previous week, it seems.
If they pass the 3.5 to 5 trillion spending spree look for prices to double and wages cut
Its heading towards 6% using their figures on it. How does she expect it to be 4% later in the year in 3 months she is a moron thinking it will go down. It won't and she is lying
In a end case scenario the country goes bankrupt, chaos ensues, democrats get "tapered off" and society can get back to working the land as God intended. And I don't think that's a terrible thing.
Well there more to it than just debt ceiling lack of transportation not a lot of drivers it’s happening all over the world we aren’t the only country dealing with this problem once all these positions are filled and the supply chains get back to normal prices will come down
One thing is for sure, no matter who ends up paying for the drink, the money will have originally came from the taxpayers for whom they work, and was made by the hands of a hard-working American Citizen (well, maybe...)
Excellent point!!!
Just ask yourself. What did we ever do to them to deserve being treated so terribly by these people ? We pay our taxes when we get paid. We pay when we buy our possessions. We pay at the end of the year in tax season and then they say that we need to pay more . All the while they spend our money we work for as if it’s theirs and we owe them .
Yep, these people getn paid to stay home better get to work! Got alot of new citizens to pay for😡
I think I get what was meant at the end by an American citizen maybe, its true so true, it might be an illegal immigrant.
@@bmartin863 They even tax us when we die. And add insult to injury (or death) by making our heirs their heirs by inheriting our debt for our selfish act of dying. More and more I question how this can possibly be real life, or how we've let it come this far. Smh
She wants banks to monitor people closer to recoup trillions in unpaid tax. Meanwhile, let’s pass this trillions bill. Smh.
Fact is, the average Joe doesn’t have trillions in unpaid taxes. It’s the millionaires and billionaires that find loopholes to avoid paying taxes.
The spending bill directly benefits the middle class
@@m.m.9678 Fact is, loopholes are legal. Millionaires and billionaires already pay most of the taxes, and can afford to find ways to legally reduce their taxable income. They're not doing anything about that.
Millionaires and billionaires are going to be monitored by $600 transactions? Bullshit.
Fact is, the only way to pay for trillions of dollars of wasteful, mostly useless, spending - a big fat pinata for democrat allies and unions - is to take tax revenue (there's not 3.5 trillion dollars even owned by billionaires) from the middle class as well as the rich...but actually they're just going to print the money, then inflation will make every dollar in the country worth less, and this becomes a regressive, secret tax on everyone but it especially impacts the working poor because billionaires can afford to pay 30% more for milk.
The man asks Senator Kennedy if he would skip out on paying for the cocktail he ordered. My response would have been, “I wouldn’t have ordered the cocktail if I didn’t have the money to pay for it.”
Kennedy should have said "yes if she goes out in the street and invites 3500 people in to drink off my tab... I'll pay for my own drink and walk out!"
This is to pay the 8 trillion dollar deficit increase under trump/gop control, so what’s your point?
Cody was the economy better under Trump or now under Biden?
@@codybralts1045 in case you missed it, senator kennedy did not say who spent what, he simply asked why do you want our fingerprints on raising the debt ceiling, if you can do it without us, and she refused to tell him the truth as to why, now you may not like the truth as to why, but that's on you, he made a brilliant political maneuver and you dont like it, do you?, but yet you seem to overlook her political maneuver. You are typical as to what is wrong with america right now, your not mentally honest!
@@codybralts1045 Uh the democrats got control of the house midterm so your comment is complete bullshit.
I would like to know why these folks have name tags that read honorable. When nothing they do is honorable!
A damn good question... The tags should actually read "dishonorable" or even "demonic"
The name goes with the job, not the person, like President Joke Biden.
Honorable usually means they are an elected official. She most certainly was not elected.
Because it's a big club and we ain't in it
'Comrade' might have been too transparent, even for Democrats.
Why do all these name placards say "Honorable" so and so? None of these grifters are anywhere in the same neighborhood of "Honorable".
It's a lot like "miss-spoke" a euphemism for LIAR, while the euphemism for "honorable" is arsehole.
Agree, none of them know the meaning of the word! Honorable should be banned!
Janet Yellen is not a grifter - at all. Educate yourself.
I couldn't have said it better myself
@@evolvedape2161 yes she is. Maybe you should do some research.

Why are Republicans such cowards.
@@daveken9936 Seriously!!! They are straight up Wussies!
@@mariabeverly443 First because most of the old ppl in congress, they don't really want to work much. Its why almost anything gets dragged for months, years so they can campaign on their reelections about the issues they "still" have to solve.
Second, in the case of republicans being cowards, they are because the democrats own the media, so any republican going off script too much gets smeared to hell for months, years so i guess thats what keeps most of them. Hopefully there are the new gen, like Boebert, Taylor Greene, Hawley, Gaetz and few others that seem to be not so afraid, yet. But you see what happened to Gaetz. You see how they attacked Greene, even after she apologized for the old tweets, or to Cruz about his vacation to Cancun, while democrats LITERALLY get away with mur-der.
How about stop interrupting her and allow her to finish her statement. The fact is they are trying to get bipartisan support.
Always look forward to Senator Kennedy’s questioning! Keep up the good work!
When the ‘ol bag said inflation was at 4%, I lost it! Obviously she has “her people” do all the shopping. This is a joke and its not funny. The government should be limited to spend a rolling 5 yr average of the countries gdp. Once those funds have been exhausted, we’re done.
5.37% is what our inflation rate is at and it will keep going up. Our economy is crashing and the idiots in government keep on lying to our faces.
Your choice of words is disgusting. You are obviously weak minded and intellectually stunted.
@@daveken9936 Yellen's choice of words was disgusting. She is obviously weak minded and intellectually stunted.
@@toddsmith5894 The government changed all the metrics and didn't include things like food when the inflation rates were high in the 70's. Can't actually have people knowing the truth about inflation... They won't be able to hide it this time though. We're finally in the end game for the dollar, at least as world reserve currency, and that's going to mean much higher prices on a great many things people need.

Ok. If I read you right "KENNEDY is not no fool" I have to conclude that KENNEDY is ,then, a fool. I agree.
If inflation was calculated like it was in the late 70's it would be in double digits. When you leave staples like rent, gas, and critical food items out of inflation calculations the government stated inflation is nothing but a bad joke. It is the low and middle income people who are the least able to afford the consequences of inflation who are being financially devastated.
Bingo.
The same in my country. Offical inflation is joke.
Correct. Real inflation is at least 15% this year. Inflation is a tax.
Actually people on a fixed income are most affected. Meaning the retired and disabled. Salaries will eventually have to be risen to account for inflation. Meanwhile, a retired persons life savings is now worth less and there will be no recourse.
"bUt TeLeVIsIoNs aRe cHeaPeR." Neat. When I buy my weekly TV that'll come in handy.
easy solution........audit the FED, fire those who are financially irresponsible, stop taxing the citizens for the very air they breath.

Both parties are worthless and have been since the FED took over our economy by blackmail and payoffs. Dec. 23,1913, the night Andrew Jackson turned over in his resting place. The beginning of the end. Where are the men? WHERE ARE THE MEN ?????? Almost 108 years and no bill to pass in the House, then Senate and signed by a President to kick out the people who brought on the first Great Depression which starved out many and brought great misery for years while they bought what was left for pennies. Reminds me of vultures. But vultures are not evil birds. 2007-2008 planned misery. The desire of the coming soon Great Reset. CONGRESS WHERE ARE YOU??? I SEE YOU! I see what you are doing in secret. I will never forget hearing Alan Greenspan say arrogantly that the FED would never be audited. Btw, wasn’t his wife the first to announce on TV the plane or no plane or CGI or WHATEVER that slid through the steel beams of WTC 1??! I don’t know why that came to my mind. Minds wander.

Paying debt bills by going into yet even more debt. This is suicide.
So true
So what do you say about the 8 trillion dollars trump and repubs added to the debt during their time in charge? The current need to raise the debt ceiling is to pay for those bills the past administration incurred.
I'm not gonna pretend like I know anything about the debt ceiling but at what point does the person/country lending the US all this money to pay the bills say enough is enough? How is it that the US is trillions of dollars in debt and somebody out there is still lending money? I just break it down to if my children owed me trillions of dollars, why would I keep giving them more money? Why don't we just stop borrowing money and let the cards fall where they may?
@@Mtnsunshine perfect name for you a karen
In our own personal finances it is pure folly to pay one credit card bill off with another credit card. Yet Democrats think this is the way it should be.
The borrowing must service the lender
therefore we must cease to borrow to be free.

Close you need to be smart about borrowing. The throw away spending is what needs to stop. Like putting your vacation on credit, the new playstation ECT. The Country needs to start saving again. Credit is a tool not a way to keep up with the Joneses...

Well said
American families have to have a budget and pay their debts - why not the government?
Been asking this since the late 1980s
Don't you know by now that the Constitution is being fully ignored?
And that all of Congress in DC thinks they are above those taxed to pay for it?
That they view the only sector that does pay taxes, the Private Sector, is their servant and slave?
You do know that all federal employees, in reality, pay no federal taxes?
That all state employees, employees of state government, pay no state taxes to their state?
That no county employee pays county taxes.
And since none of them "Pay" taxes - why are they allowed to elect their big government allies to public office?
Taxes can ONLY be paid by the Private Sector! The taxes are put in the US Treasury's account and every dollar there is from the private sector. The fed employee has a "salary" that ALL come from the pool of taxes paid in by the Private Sector. Understand? Then, from the fed employee's check they have a ledger entry that puts back into the same account from which it came, what looks to be "taxes" but is nothing but a return to the same government pool from which it originated.
Yellen is a long time member of the Council on Foreign Relations. She is an enemy globalist as are all CFR members. They are Keynesian socialists in their economics. They want to raise the debt ceiling, rather than cutting spending to match the taxes taken in from the Private Sector. It's is a shell game and WE the PEOPLE are the fools and suckers who refuse to push ourselves back from the table!
Can you give me a clear definition of inflation? Who causes inflation? What to do to stop inflation or reverse it with deflation?

The idea that it's "responsible" to borrow money to pay debts is one reason (beyond uncontrolled spending) that the debt keeps climbing. You can't borrow your way out of debt whether you're an individual or a government. The Idea is absurd and anybody that claims to have any common sense understands this. The truth is they don't want us out of debt or we would still be on the gold standard.
Debt is the new world currency. However, that actually makes what you say even more prudent.
the U.S. is in deep trouble. the only thing keeping the dollar from collapsing is it's the reserve currency. it's the reserve currency because the U.S. is the world's military hegemony. the biden administration is signaling to the rest of the world that the U.S. is weak. when the U.S. is no longer the world's military hegemony the dollar will be worthless. that's coming very soon.

"A functional economy is when money is traded from person-to-person in a flowing matter."
Money was flowing quite fast in Weimar Germany. It always does in a hyperinflation. Do you consider hyperinflations to be "functional economies"?
" If your taxes were 0%, how much money would you give to the government voluntarily? ZERO. "
How do know no one would voluntarily contribute to the government if their taxes were zero and they were asked to voluntarily to contribute? You don't. You can't prove such a thing. People give to churches and charities all the time. Every statistical record of donations we have show that when tax rates go down, voluntary giving to these entities goes up. So I'll go by the available evidence, which disproves your assertion.
"Any good business owner knows, if you drop taxes to 0%, their business will still fail if the CUSTOMERS don't have any extra money to spend."
Well then why didn't that happen in America? Thomas Jefferson repealed all internal taxes at the federal level in 1802. Don't take my word for any this. Go look it up on the tax museum's website. He reduced the national debt during this time even while making the Louisiana Purchase. Funny how you Leftists always say lowering taxes will lead to greater debt, but of course this is a lie since all the Left does is lie. The government was operated solely on trade tariff revenue through that time until the start of the Civil War in 1860. It operated that way BECAUSE THAT WAS THE ORIGINAL INTENT OF THE CONSTITUTION, as specifically outlined by Madison in the Federalist Papers. You Leftists ignore all history you don't like and that's why you're just ignorant fools, masquerading as proponents of knowledge. But the reason he reduced the national debt is because economic activity exploded due to the drastic lowering of taxes and revenue from the increased trade increased exponentially. You Leftist just can't ever see the forest for the trees...
When taxes were lowered again after the Civil War, why did America continue to grow and why did it become an industrial powerhouse with people the world over clamoring for the inventions of "Yankee ingenuity"? See how things like facts and evidence just destroy the mindless crap you were indoctrinated with in your liberal university?

"The point of the Federal Reserve is to let PROFESSIONAL ECONOMISTS run the economy outside of the extreme corruption of the government."

And it also ushered in fractional reserve banking on a nationwide scale. But of course the richest banking elite in the country were doing all of this for the benefit of the common people... Lmao
"I used to be a Ron Paul loving brainwashed right winger myself. Then I studied economics and realized just how much politicians of both parties are ruining everyone's lives."
You sound even dumber now. The only economists that base their conclusions on logic and reason are the Austrians.
