It's not even higher wages when you consider that companies can only afford it because less people are filling roles. Desperation to keep a business afloat is a good way to get pay raises.

You completely ignored the "... considering what we just gone through" part. And the inflation is caused by short term world wide shortages. Nothing an US president could do about that. It's just market economy. 🤷♂️
@@Chiungalla79 You are correct. Our inflation just like Venezuela’s and every other country who flooded their economy with money entered inflation due to “short term worldwide shortages”. Did you learn macro economic principles from MSNBC or a bathroom stall’s scribblings?
Yes Bill, wages are up... but the purchasing power of those wages are down due to inflation causing the devaluation of currency. Interesting how he managed to dodge that one in his "the democrats are doing better than it seems" sales pitch.
that is not literally true. depends on who you're talking about and what kind of job they have. Presidents are not responsible for what the economy does or doesn't do, yet they take the blame or credit from the voters who either like them or hate them. But it is nevertheless true that our economy stubbornly remains robust. For whatever reason.

This piece, while entertaining for how bizarre it was, actually completely avoids the real pain point Americans are revealing with their disapproval of Biden: *we absolutely hate the political establishment on BOTH sides*
That's factually true that politicians are generally unlikeable as a lot; being in politics takes an ego that is somewhat unhealthy and filled with insecurity. However, that disapproval of Biden is based on him not un-f***ing in one year the mess that the republicans created in the last four. They did some major damage in four years, he can't overturn it in a year with the pandemic complications. Give a little leeway to Biden to fix some stuff that is quite insidiously complicated from the previous government. In a year of slowly getting to terms with the full effects of COVID on everything I am guessing it is pretty hard to get things back to normal/good-ish in just a year.
Sure, but that doesn't change his main point about Biden's underlying unpopularity. I would hope that the American people aren't blaming Biden for a recession that hasn't happened yet.

It’s such a pathetic trope, and I’m typically left of center.

The one exception to lower crime rates is white-collar crime, likely due to the lawyers of the wealthy who always find a way to keep their clients out of prison. There’s no incentive to stop when one never faces consequences for one’s actions. (And corporations and the wealthy are the ones responsible for inflation.

I think you're spot on. Yes, Biden beat Trump, but I feel like almost anyone could have. The last election wasn't really about being pro-Biden, it was simply about being pro-stability and anti-insanity. So even if they had put up a ficus plant, it probably would have beaten Trump.

Okay, that's great for some - but it doesn't change the reality for the millions who need to work two jobs (or more) to earn a living wage. It's simply not a great indicator of overall economic health. It's far better to look at unemployment, and UNDERemployment stats - that would paint a more stark picture.

Yeah but the stock market was Trumps main taking point when he talked about the Economy like every chance he got. It’s all I heard from supporters. So I think that’s why Bill makes it a talking point here, like “see, it’s up with Biden also”. I firmly agree with your point though.

You do not need to look any further than the Supreme court appointee in 2020 vs 2016 (as Bill said). They seem to be doubling down though. The Democrats never accepted Trump's victory and talked about impeachment before he ever even took office. They figured they could get him on Russia, but there was not enough evidence, so when they realized that, they moved on to the next thing. So then that pissed them off and idiot Republicans were more likely to believe the 2020 election was "stolen." Then Biden is President, and Ted Cruz is talking about impeaching him, "just because." We are down a slippery slope and honestly. Both parties are responsible for childish and retalitory behavior (with Republicans probably getting the win strictly because we nominated Trump).....

The filibuster was put in place to force the parties to work together but with social media it has made the US so divisive that Congress can do nothing. Republicans really don't have much to hit Democrats with except culture wars and the dumb Democrats play right into their hands. (Look at the Virginia governor race). Manchin and Siema are using the their positions to raise big bucks and power and if wasn't them it would be some other Democrat. (Remember when Obama was trying to pass the ACA and he had to make special concessions to the Nebraska senator?) America was the first democracy and it was an experiment. It has finally shown that it has failed. Parliamentary systems overall have proven to be better democracies in representing the true will of the people.

When inflation chews up the “higher wages” you don’t actually have higher wages 🤦🏽♀️
It's not even higher wages when you consider that companies can only afford it because less people are filling roles. Desperation to keep a business afloat is a good way to get pay raises.

Wages haven’t gone up… they’ve gone down when you factor the increase in inflation.

Way down...
Wages go up like 5% while prices go up 15-50%. Such a great outcome
A 30 cent increase in my hourly wage is only keeping up with inflation. Fuck Trudeau and the liberals, they are destroying our prosperity so we will have to rely on their welfare.

that is not literally true. depends on who you're talking about and what kind of job they have. Presidents are not responsible for what the economy does or doesn't do, yet they take the blame or credit from the voters who either like them or hate them.

This piece, while entertaining for how bizarre it was, actually completely avoids the real pain point Americans are revealing with their disapproval of Biden: *we absolutely hate the political establishment on BOTH sides*
That would be the democrat party, the far left, and the GOP establishment in the center-left. Do you see the common theme?
That's factually true that politicians are generally unlikeable as a lot; being in politics takes an ego that is somewhat unhealthy and filled with insecurity. However, that disapproval of Biden is based on him not un-f***ing in one year the mess that the republicans created in the last four. They did some major damage in four years, he can't overturn it in a year with the pandemic complications. Give a little leeway to Biden to fix some stuff that is quite insidiously complicated from the previous government. In a year of slowly getting to terms with the full effects of COVID on everything I am guessing it is pretty hard to get things back to normal/good-ish in just a year.

Rich elites like Biden and Bill display such a remarkable degree of snobbishness. The entire Democrat Party thinks everyone right of center are evil Nazi racists. It’s such a pathetic trope, and I’m typically left of center.

Who told you to think the economy isnt in great shape?what did you learn when you looked ip up yourself?Comrade trump and fox used to measure the economy but the stock market and the stock market is currently higher than its ever been champ.no one ever thought it could be so high,and every one says so. So,either the great orange shit gibbon was lying and the stock market isnt a good measure of the economy,or it is a good measure and everything is better now than it ever was under the orange gizz trumpet.you really should get a better understanding of what the word economy means and how its measured before you pretend to have an opinion .bless yer heart ,kitten.

He didn't mention inflation and crime, two things that actually affect people who participate in polls.
They don’t consider businesses closing their doors because they can’t afford to stay in business because of the criminals as a negative employment.
@Greg Hester - Inflation is, and was a year ago, being experienced worldwide and crime in the US is actually lower then it has been over the past few decades. Don’t believe the fear-mongering media. The one exception to lower crime rates is white-collar crime,
likely due to the lawyers of the wealthy who always find a way to keep their clients out of prison. There’s no incentive to stop when one never faces consequences for one’s actions. (And corporations and the wealthy are the ones responsible for inflation. Claiming rising costs are only to cover their new expenses yet posting billions in profit.)

Bill is level headed about so many things, but he has this odd loyalty to the Democratic party.
Yeah because he can't see himself with the crazies and insurrectionists and fascists and qanon violent unscrupulous anti science Nazis or neo-nazis on the other side! Nobody who is in their right frame of mind would want to be identified with the group like that!

To make my point a bit more clear, this is actually the problem with our two party system. So many people make the assumption that in order to be against one of the parties, you have to be "on the side" of the other party. And not even the real core of the other party, but the worst, most corrupt and radical aspects of it. You don't have to align yourself with racists, authoritarians, or insurrectionists in order to oppose the corrupt nature of the political parties

All due respect.....the economy is awesome for a very small percentage of the people, hence the poor approval rating. Also with all due respect....holding the bar with comments like the guy who could beat Trump....you got what you paid for.
Thanks for onnest comments. Seems like the others wachting this video are still drinking the kool-aid.
Earning a dollar more when everything also costs a dollar more is losing and nit gaining
Economy is shit. I was making 38/hour before the pandemic cost me my job. Now I make 23 and shit is way more expensive than 2 years ago. But yeah. Doing great.
I think you're spot on. Yes, Biden beat Trump, but I feel like almost anyone could have. The last election wasn't really about being pro-Biden, it was simply about being pro-stability and anti-insanity. So even if they had put up a ficus plant, it probably would have beaten Trump.
I also think you're exactly right about the economy. This is why I got so frustrated when Trump would talk about how the stock market was up. Okay, that's great for some - but it doesn't change the reality for the millions who need to work two jobs (or more) to earn a living wage. It's simply not a great indicator of overall economic health. It's far better to look at unemployment, and UNDERemployment stats - that would paint a more stark picture.
@@kuribojim3916 wasnt unemployment better during trump error?

"Wages are up, we avoided a recession..." But the fact remains that inflation is at a forty year high. Buying the same groceries this year compared to last year costs on average $5,000 more.
Why though? Isn’t the entire world experiencing a shortage supply of goods due to the pandemic. If you didn’t know then the answer is yes. Yes it is. Our supply chain is just starting to pick up again but it’s definitely not where it was before.
It’s not something new, Joan Rivers said that Obama was gay.
We need to stop acting like there is 2 parties, there is 1 party. The party ran by the corporate/military industrial complex.

False. There are tons of republicans who are against the military Industrial complex. Then liberals call them Russian puppets. It’s gross
@@davidkast3587 Yep. Democrats lost their hive-think mind the other day when Tucker Carlson gave the slightest suggestion that maybe the US jumping into a war with Russia might not be the best plan in the world for us right now. They basically kicked Tulsi Gabbard out of the party a few years ago and called her a Russian asset for suggesting the same.
Maher would probably be committing career suicide if he acknowledged this, but I suspect he actually believes it himself. The 2 parties are there to pit us against each other and we remain distracted.
@@kevind1650 it's crazy when you consider all the shit dems took for their claims (that were proven to be correct) during the Iraq war. Dems were called terrorist sympathizers because they thought it wasn’t a good idea to go to war.

Economy doing well? Bill doesn't live in reality.
He doesn’t even go grocery shopping and fill the gas at the gas station ⛽️
The stock market isn't an indicator for how well the economy is doing, it's an indicator for how much the rich are making off the economy. I've seen a stock market crash and people still go to work and have money for steak dinners, and I've seen a stock market doing well while people couldn't get a job and were going in debt.
10% of Americans own 90% of the Stock Market, while bottom 50% have nothing.
Yeah but the stock market was Trumps main taking point when he talked about the Economy like every chance he got. It’s all I heard from supporters. So I think that’s why Bill makes it a talking point here, like “see, it’s up with Biden also”. I firmly agree with your point though.
@@victor-manuelsaldana5058 Yeah, every president touts it and every future president WILL tout it as a talking point because they're not appealing to us, they're appealing to that 10% that own 90% of the market that Din Sel was referring to.

Dont you know thats only true when a republican isnin office? Come on man.
I'm not rich but I do have a shot at having enough to retire on thanks to my 401k investments in the stock market. Last time I looked, the stock market does well when the economy is strong. People have a choice. Learn a skill, and buy a used car with cash.

I think it is too soon to say we avoided a recession. Even in the last 2 days, the probability of one has increased significantly.
Anyone who knows anything knows that the US is about to become more broke than at any time in its history. People like Maher can't imagine what's coming because they've never seen it. They mistakenly think the US's power is inexhaustible. It is not. The party is already over, folks, and there's nothing we can do now to bring it back.

I am a Republican who is also a big Bill fan. I think both of us don't like the direction of our parties, and we both can see errors on both sides. The hypocrisy is so ridiculous. You do not need to look any further than the Supreme court appointee in 2020 vs 2016 (as Bill said). They seem to be doubling down though. The Democrats never accepted Trump's victory and talked about impeachment before he ever even took office. They figured they could get him on Russia, but there was not enough evidence, so when they realized that, they moved on to the next thing. So then that pissed them off and idiot Republicans were more likely to believe the 2020 election was "stolen." Then Biden is President, and Ted Cruz is talking about impeaching him, "just because." We are down a slippery slope and honestly. Both parties are responsible for childish and retalitory behavior (with Republicans probably getting the win strictly because we nominated Trump)..... Long winded way to say, we should not be having "knife fights" but one party needs to step up and just be the bigger team and maybe the other will follow suit.
I'm a registered democrat. I think the democrat party has become the party of lying and dirt and the republicans have got to the the largest collective of ball-less-ness ever seen!
@@mbstrongs I am neither Republican or Democrat but also a big Bill fan. When looking back on Nixon, the nation slowly became united against him and Congress realized he had to go despite party politics. Trump should had been removed from office, things he did made Nixon look like a boy scout, but today politics is more important than integrity in the system. The filibuster was put in place to force the parties to work together but with social media it has made the US so divisive that Congress can do nothing. Republicans really don't have much to hit Democrats with except culture wars and the dumb Democrats play right into their hands. (Look at the Virginia governor race). Manchin and Siema are using the their positions to raise big bucks and power and if wasn't them it would be some other Democrat. (Remember when Obama was trying to pass the ACA and he had to make special concessions to the Nebraska senator?)
America was the first democracy and it was an experiment. It has finally shown that it has failed. Parliamentary systems overall have proven to be better democracies in representing the true will of the people. I predict that in the near future the US will fall apart. Either it will become a fascist state and it will be the world enemy or more likely an economic catastrophe will happen that will make it fall apart.
