The government doesn’t pay for anything…the people do.
And who is the government supposed to be?
The government literally prints and destroys money every year.
@@obeb787 bro fans of this show might actually be the slowest people on earth lmfao
@@mdchan8644 lol, I don’t want to agree with you. But, It seems as like much of them just keep repeating what they hear without even analyzing. Seems like a script.
😂😂😂 absolutely 💯
The post office? The thing that operates at a loss. You be telling me the DMV is smooth operation.
Post office only operates at a loss because of Amazon, before Amazon came into the picture the post office made 1 billion in profit every year
The post office keeps UPS and FEDEX prices in check. If USPS goes away, shipping prices will skyrocket, with nothing to curb them.
Dont forget during covid it was reported that the post office was monitoring social media and reporting back to the fed.
@@spacejammer1991LOL I’m sorry; what??? And oh, it’s nice when you have a literal monopoly on a specific type of shipping. And unlike every other shipping company, you don’t even have to go to the door lol.
@@toddschoonover5919no. They wouldn’t. Both of those are still more expensive than usps. Double so, most times. What, you think they’d triple and quadruple? They are already fairly expensive.
I am a 67 year old single woman who just retired last year after being in the workforce for 51 years. I PAID in to social security for those 51 years. I paid into a 401k for 38 years and lost 1/3 of that in the crash. I have paid into every thing possible to prepare for retirement. I take social security because I paid in to it. I would appreciate Adam not calling it a hand out, or entitlement program.
It isn't a dig at you, it's a dig at the program. You will likely receive far more than you put in. That's why it's a handout. It's a wealth transfer from the youth to the elderly. The money YOU paid went to seniors before you.
I'm paying into it now and I'm not going to get a single penny out of it.
@@joshfritz5345Yes, you will likely be screwed. However, people like the OP seem to think they have invested some money or something. They haven't. The government taxed them/us and gave the money to someone else. It is an entitlement program.
@@pdc-cp4uvif she had taken the same money and invested it differently she would be wealthy beyond her dreams. It is not her fault the government makes every wrong step. Having followed the rules and and forced to spend your money in a specific way is insulting to start, but hearing this man make this off hand comment about a system which is counter to capitalism.stings every time. And that sting is stronger with time.
@@LynnRPerry The problem is the thinking that the politicians back then and now were ever telling the truth. They have been lying about this program from day one. There isn't some sort of lockbox of money that is being properly invested along with your lifespan. What is taken in is then spent. It is a tax, and an eventual expenditure based on conditions. She would likely be far wealthier if her own money was invested, but special interest groups have made Social Security into the third rail of politics. It is not sustainable any longer. At this point we are robbing young people in the form of tax, and they will not recieve the same benefit. The program needs to be altered and eventually abolished or replaced with a different mechanism if in fact we want to ensure that people have money when they no longer want to work. However, I don't think that the government cares all that much about doing these things from the goodness of their heart.
"A socialist will give you the shirt off of some else's back"
Did he propose Socialistic policies?
I heard an argument for taxation as a method to reduce wealth inequality…
A socialist will also send money overseas to help people abroad lol
@@gabrielcornejo253 more taxes on who? The top 1% pay around 40% of the taxes. The top 25% pay around 88.5% and the top 50% pay 99.7%.
You could literally take EVERY dime from the top 1% and still not pay for all of the proposed government spending. So tell me, what do you propose?
@@gabrielcornejo253 What eric said^^^ Also you gotta think about implications, you try and redistribute wealth and then you lose all the innovators and business’s, Then the wealth dramatically decreases…
Ironically, you missed the fact that government structures for large businesses, at least in the US government, are taken from socialism. Taxation benefits, subsidies, and other legislation that promotes business growth have nothing in common with a free market.
And whaddayaknow! It's a regular thing, watching committees of billionaires and powerful people trying to pass off their obligations to the lower classes.
Don't you love it when a person intentionally misunderstands and refuses to answer simple straightforward questions because the answers would easily destroy their argument
Which part?
That's the entirety of being a liberal in 2023 lol
J Wilkers
You seriously need to work on your comprehension skills.
Don’t you love it when conservatives can’t comprehend basic topics like marginal tax rates…
Any specific examples?
No one paid 90%. There were even more loopholes and shelters back then. They averaged closer to 42%, which practically mirrors what is paid in by the high rollers today.
Wild how every one is talking about raising taxes but nobody is talking about cutting spending
"I'm not suggesting we reduce revenue from businesses."
That guy is assuming nobody is going to change their behavior based on government policy.
Do Socialists not understand cause and effect?
They do not.
They think socialism is a utopia.
I'm afraid they do not understand anything.
@@sirchadiusmaximusiii thanks for posting what I was gonna post
They do not
The realtor example. Because one super realtor is not taking all the business anymore the tax isn’t lost. It gives changes for other realtors to get successful. Now we have more successful realtors paying tax instead of 1 getting filthy rich. It’s better for everyone
Greed is a sin
If the government was efficient and effective; people wouldn’t mind paying taxes 😂
Yeah if these taxes went into efficient social programs it would make sense, but we pay taxes and it vanishes into thin air through inefficiencies. This is why everyone should use the tax system to pay as little taxes as possible. These damn politicians just print money anyways when they spend all the taxes they collect and want to spend more.
if they were efficient and effective, we wouldnt NEED to pay taxes!
@@AubatronGreat idea. Everybody should spend years mastering the convoluted tax code crafted by large corporations who know exactly how to wield it and have the armies of liqueurs and CPAs to stay on top of things.
Brilliant plan.
When was the last law you even read out of the hundreds of thousands of pages of existing laws?
@@josephcoon5809 Yesterday actually, how CRA want you to make qualifying withdraws from a FHSA (not American) without it being a taxable event. Was checking if it could be done with real-estate bough from a tax sale. lol
If we must live under governments they should be turning the countries natural resources into profit to pay for everything and pay us a dividend you know like those “horrible” Middle Eastern/African nations we demonise all the time like Libya, Saudi etc
I work in government as a healthcare provider. I waste ZERO time arguing with insurance companies to cover treatments, but I also am not presured to tack on as many treatments and expenses to my patients as I have been in private practice.
In private practice I have literally be told, "you aren't ordering enough braces for patients" because they want the patient to pay, even for something I deem unneccessary. I also was told to spred out visits and only pick ONE thing to cover. Now, in government, I can see as much as I am comfortable with so my patients dont have to make several visits. I also put in my plans for patients to just call my clinic if they are getting worse with physical therapy and I will order an MRI. In private practice I would eventually get fired for passing up on forcing another visit that can be billed. Government can be much more efficient and cheaper overall in medicine because the decisions I make on patient care are in no way incentivised by racking up as many charges as possible. I am only incentivised to do what I think is medically neccessary for my patients.
Someone with your mindset is the minority in that scenario, gov involvement incentivizes laziness and selling medication.
@@MichaelSavage-zq6gv how did you get that idea? You can hold the government accountable at least. Companies have only one priority and that's profit.
@@vapingfury4460It's much easier to not buy a product from a business than to get a nameless, faceless bureaucrat that you don't get to vote for, fired from their job.

@MichaelSavage-zq6gv You just totally ignoring what the OP said. Im sure you know better than the doctor who lives it everyday right?
3% Medicare administrators cost means nothing when the actual medical cost are 10x higher then private insurance. My girlfriend is a nurse in a hospital and she says you won’t believe the number of women who don’t want to pay $15 for a pregnancy test so they go to the ER because Medicare will make it free for them. Yet the hospital is billing Medicare $4k just for the room alone smh
That’s the issue we have when our medical system is so profit driven. America pays more per citizen than any other country in the world for healthcare. We don’t have the best outcomes and we are the only industrialized country without a single-payer system.
Medicare is for people over 65 and the disabled. I'm constantly amazed at the ignorance on the right.
@@0rtu_Soliswe actually have some of the BEST outcomes with the LEAST waiting time.
Canada has a single payer system. Their solution: MAID.
Profit is the exact reason we are successful. When the government says a faculty can’t charge more than $5,000 for a procedure that costs $14,000 just from supplies and staffing alone, you get facilities not offering that procedure or jacking up prices elsewhere to compensate.
You are not only wrong, but completely ill-informed
@@rebchizelbeak5392 That's not true. we have some pretty terrible health statistics that are related to us not having a nationalized health system. We spend more per citizen (we spend almost double Germany does in second place), and a higher percentage of our GDP than any other country when it comes to healthcare spending. We have a 22% higher overdose rate than the next highest industrialized country. Our life expectancy is three years below the OECD average. We have the highest rate of infant and maternal deaths out of all OECD countries. Our obesity rate is almost 10 percent higher than New Zealand who is in second place in the OECD. We rank near the bottom in physician rates, hospital beds per capita, length of time in the hospital, and physician visits.
I work in healthcare and the for profit insurance system is big cause for the exploitation there. Doctor's are often required to give multiple unnecessary exams to patent's because the exam they want to give is more expensive. So the insurances require the cheaper exams first to try to avoid the expensive exam which usually has to be given anyways. This is only one type of example out of hundreds I could list. Medications are also notoriously bad, like the HIV medicine that was jacked up over 4,000% because a company thought it was a good investment.
@olis You could actually make a solid argument that we do have the best outcomes. We have the number 1 success rate in terms of cancer treatment and the highest recovery rate for stroke victims. When it comes to research and development of new medical technology we're second to none. Also, you're claim that no other industrialized country goes without a single-payer system is false. Look at Greece/The Netherlands as some examples
The big difference between Patrick and Sam that says it all for me is; Patrick has his elderly father living in his home as part of his family.
Sam mentioned he loved Medicare/Medicaid cause it pays for his mother in the nursing home so he doesn’t have take care of her.
But, Sam is so much better of a person than everyone… it’s obvious. He’s so much better. Why else would he be ok with people paying almost all their money in taxes.
And? Your point?
,I caught that early on. He does make some good points, but I can tell Sam wants to work the least, live well and have little responsibility
@@JRGPS903 That is not what he said at all but you are a right winger so comprehension and basic facts elude regularly! Why else would you listen to PBD? He dumbs down the right wing propaganda
@JRaborn yeah, because being taxed AFTER 3 MILLION A YEAR, oh poor babies can't buy a yacht for a few years lol. The amount of greed in the free market right now is pathetic! The whole egg price hike? SCAM. The meat prices going up? SCAM. Record profits for big oil, yet they still hike prices? SCAM. Are you seeing it now? "But, but it must be Bidens fault!"🤦♂️
EVERY "happy" ranked country takes care of their elderly and sickly folks. But here, capitalists would rather see our elderly kicked off of ANY assistance, because "My money! My money!" ZERO empathy towards others and a balanced society. These kinds of Americans are the definition of narcissistic sociopaths. "F everyone else, but I'll hide my millions from being taxed because I'm special and don't need to contribute to society! "But hurry up and make my fast food meal because i demand it!"😂
Sam needs to lay off the soy, daytime tv and Marxism.
I'm quite certain you don't even know what legitimate Marxism.
@@braveintheattempt well said, comrade
@@braveintheattempt Legitimate Marxism: we've seen it.
@@braveintheattempt nobodies ever seen it because it's never worked in real life 🤡😂😂
Charities often have a 95% overhead. This is not any better than giving it to the government.
Especially those "charities" that claim to fight inequality like BLM. They are nothing else than schemes to enrich the people that run them.
They hire their friends and families, rent expensive offices, pay for hotels and trips and even buy villas supposedly for the community but
in reality for the leaders to live there themselves. And of course they need cars so they lease expensive sports cars and limousines.
Im not sure how that would work with international businesses. Sounds like it creates more opportunities for foreign countries to emerge in the US market since large companies will scale back
The fundamental issue with taxes is that we do not receive services commensurate to taxes paid, not by a long shot.
Yeah there is a fundamental flaw with belief that taxing the wealthy will mean the poor and middle class have more money. No, it means the government would have more money. What has the Fed. Government done to make anyone think they could be trusted to fairly distribute that?
It’ll only get worse as the portion of tax revenue going towards interest paid on government debt increases. But government knows what it’s doing, right?
Great comment.

@@rambomoore381 ouch. True statement though. How many young black folks with full college rides right now..... i definitely didnt get that priviledge. Nor will my children.
I think I finally figured out what annoys me the most about Sam Seder: He is convinced that only HE knows the true motivations of everyone.
self interest??
That's the entire political left in a nutshell. They have no arguments unless they're projecting motives onto you.
Way to write a bunch of words without ANY meaning. It's like Tim Pool in written form!

@@interdimensionalsteve8172or… maybe just work on your reading comprehension? 😂
My father in law had Medicare and Medicaid and was in a nursing home. The cost monthly was around $8000 charged to the government in an old but clean nursing home. One month they said to my wife we are going to apply to receive authorization from Medicare to give her father music therapy.......my wife said great. We went to see him the next month and they had a cassette player in his room playing classical music which was great. Do you know how much they charged the government? $5000 for the music therapy. This was 10 years ago.....not even a CD😂🎉😢
Maybe for an entrepeneur/ sole proprietor but when you invest and are a shareholder.... if its a public traded company like apple and you divide 3 million to 10 millio. Plus shares. No one will invest, company valuations go down, and many peoples 401k and investments will tank....
It's never about how the taxes will help, they just want to see those with more than them punished. It's envy, not compassion.
Big facts 💯

That specific question of “how will the taxes help?” Was never asked.
So you’re operating with conjecture.
That is factually incorrect. I envy nobody but support extremely high taxes on the wealthiest Americans.
@@111tedward Why do you think you deserve other people's productivity?
You can't make the poor not be poor by making it illegal for the wealthy to be wealthy.
I'm 1 of 4 kids in my family. We were all taught the same things about money and yet ALL 4 of us have drastically different outcomes based off mostly effort.
There will always be the person who is willing to sacrifice everything to become wealthy and those who wont sacrifice a donut to be wealthy.
These socialists love socialism as it breeds and rewards very average minds like theirs.
In what universe is earning $3,000,000 a year not wealthy? Hell, even $500,000 a year?
Having millions still isn't preventing wealthy from being wealthy 😂
Not to mention, the wealthy by and large benefit society through jobs, inexpensive products, etc.
90% of all resources will end up in the hands of the few. Sam’s issue is that he seems to look at the government as a “thing” that operates in this theoretical world but the reality is that it’s made up of people. But not just any people. These are people, who as children, had the desire to run peoples lives and make decisions for them. These people had to be absolutely ruthless and step on everyone in their path to get into the positions they are in. These people are actual psychopaths. They don’t feel, they don’t even stop for a second to think how their decisions effect people. These people are the “government” and it’s really strange that anyone would think handing them money is a good idea. This world is truly run by criminals. This is the downfall of democracy. The winner is usually the best liar.
On a different note, monarchy is interesting because it almost guarantees you won’t get a psychopath. Sometimes you do but the odds are low. You often get someone who doesn’t want the authority but do it out of duty, which is how America worked before politician became a profession. We are truly seeing the death of democracy before our very eyes or at least the idea of it.
The point being, that without the private sector, the government, which does not create revenue, there would be no markets to innovate the means of production and distribution.
Barriers to entry is a big issue. We learned about this in one of my economics classes.
All good when you have an efficient government, an honest government, a government that cares for its people and better yet, a government who doesn't sell its country to its enemies.
Imagine if they were taxing the billionaires at 90%. The amount of shit we could be sending to Ukraine right now.
This has never existed in the history of ever. There has always been some level of deception, corruption, or defiance from a governing body. A states only purpose is to protect it's people.
Which we don’t.
Medicare spends substantially less on administrative waste than private health insurers. You can say the same type of thing of countless different industries.
@@No_co_OK the same level of customer service as the DMV is not what I want in medical care.
Back in the 50's Nobody Paid 90% there were tons of tax shelters in the IRS Tax rules
And we just got done with WW2 where we won. Peace provides prosperity
new money paid them.
Source?
Thank you for mentioning that, Sam is either a liar or ill-informed, either way, he should not be talking about the subject as though he knows anything.
That 90% was never paid. Jeff bezos would leave his money in the business account like right now. And pay nothing
Larger companies could contribute lots more to retirements but they don’t have to because they are able to be better and cheaper than smaller companies. The small companies are being killed out by the bigger guys. As a company grows and learn efficientcies it gets cheaper or more goes to profit.
Here’s my argument for higher taxes. If a business or person is making enough money to be in that bracket, they will be incentivized to find ways to write off some of that income. Like philanthropy, investing, putting money back into their employees and businesses. Thereby reducing the need for government to spend money on some social needs.
Dude the problem with write off is that it creates demand that would other wise not exist. Write offs are a huge reason wealthy spend money and out bid the poor.
Government needs to stop intervening
Thank You. It also has been shown, over time, that the higher tax rate on the upper classes reduces the federal defecit.
Someone starting up will work harder to fill the gaps they leave by avoiding revenue.. Simple it can work that way.
But the government will waste 90% of the 90% because they Inefficient as hell and cronies get rich. 20m for a 10k toilet
Literally this.
Perfect example of the rule:
don't take criticism from someone you wouldn't take advice from.
Thanks for this. I'll be sure to remember this.
How about just take the criticism for what it’s worth.
If the person criticizing you is right, then their right, shouldn’t matter if you think they’re a Pos you wouldn’t take advice from.
If the government just squanders the taxes they steal from the citizens it doesnt matter.
I agree! my rule is I don't take advice from someone who's life I wouldn't want.
@@gideon1199 Usually someone you would'nt take advice from has bad ideas. That's the point. Usually a person you wouldn't take advice from isn't gonna be right about their criticism either.

If anything. $5million cap but at that point company/owner is taxed normally up to $5m then 50% of anything above that goes back to employeess' wages/incentives for loyal employees (3-5year) major pay raises. New hires keep base/start pay.

1. When you actually spend time considering how it would be structured on paper to enact what he's talking about,it would arguably be less impactful on the rich as it would be on Middle & Lower classes.
1st it would have to be applied universally to be ethical & fair. 2nd He suggests paying tax strictly off your profit. After all overhead costs of running the business.
I can only assume he means instead of paying tax as is,otherwise thos is simply an additional tax. If so then *Essentially he suggests swapping the 'the tax bracket system' for a single tax to be applied after Essential costs have been paid!*
Effectively this would eradicate the Classes all together,which there already isn't many degrees of separation between the Mid & Lower classes now days. Would it have an impact on the Grotesquely rich? Sure,yet nowhere near how devastating it would be for the rest of us!
Yet he then contradicts himself by saying *"Pay tax on every dollar earned"* Aside from perishable's,we already do sir. For every purchase or even competing Bank Fee's for gaining access to your money.
Face it folks,this system already had it's built-in limits. This was just not widely understood until *Industrialization,Mechanization & Mass Production. * If they were/are the Engines,then Capitalism is the Vehicle* which skyrockets us towards the abyss!
*Yet some would have us add Nos to it by going %100 Digital! *These people are insane!!!*
I live in Canada and make well into 6 figures. I pay 54% on every dollar I make over $235K and it pisses me off. I've evaluated relocating to Florida for tax purposes. It doesn't keep me from working and trying to earn more but it is extremely frustrating to see so much money going to an inept government.
I retired last year after my local Maryland taxes were raised again. It was raised every year I own my home. So, I sold it and I’m now traveling the world and paying very little in taxes.
It’s basically another way of the government saying we want to make sure you are successful, but only to a point then we will penalize you, so just stay mediocre another words is that what they want?

When Sam brings up the 90% tax of the fifties he doesn't mention they had deductions out the Wazoo and nobody paid 90%.
It is worse now, when somebody like Trump does not even pay Tax there is something wrong
Very true ....our deductions have pretty much disappeared now.
It's funny because he's been over this with other guests on his show multiple times and yet he's pulling it out again here. What a fucking cancer.
And even less people paid their taxes… Therefore they collected even less taxes than what they tried to collect
What you don't understand is those tax rates are for millionaires...after let's say 5 million that 90% kicks in.
Those top line tax %s had well over a hundred pages of caveats that made it more of a administrative move vs an actual tax revenue maker.
The corporate tax rates were higher than they are now (37%) but thinking that high taxes equated to less weath inequality and the most glorious of decades is some of the stupidest shit I've heard in a very long time.
“Hold on! Let me ask my question.”

It’s not just actors or realtors. No one, including surgeons and essential businesses, is going to work if you take 90% of their income. It’s a slippery slope to bread lines.

yeah give the money back to state that generates nothing, it always worked
if the money won't go to individuals it will go somewhere else

I worked a state job at a school in Oakland.

This is true for all insurance, TO A POINT. But when premiums come out of every check and copays and deductibles are so high, each visit has a larger impact.
Yup, he's something else....
What ppl clearly dont seem to undersfand is there isnt an unlimited amout of resources in the world or the US. The more wealthy the 1% become, the less wealthy everyone else becomes.
When paying for something:
1. Using your money, you go for cheap + quality.
2. Using someone else's money, you go for quality and dont care for cost.
3. Using someone else's money and buying for someone else, you dont care for quality or cost. That's government spending
well said
Then is 100%
When you go for profits, you pay labor as little as possible, hopefully abuse them, and make products as cheap as possible that purposely fail to have repeat sales. You present the product as if the higher priced one is the best possible, when most of the time it's far from it, and the cheapest one barely works. The range is shit to decent... It's a game.

This isn’t about differing opinions, it is about liars and propagandists, destroying livelihoods, reputations, even lives, to silence anyone who dares to disagree. There is a clear line between groups of people, now. Liars and truth tellers. Don’t fall for it.
Sam Seder is a long time liar and shill for the authoritarians and has been for years. He literally makes up statistics on the fly like saying more taxes were paid in the 50’s and 60’s.

The problem I have is Companies are designed to make money, correct? They would not give money to poor people as they see it was not making a profit, correct? You would see a lot more death in US if you did it this way. Not everybody has the same capability to make money, if it is Health Problems, if it is disability, if it is aged.
I’m a plumber sitting at home because after I’ve made $120k, it’s just not worth it to work anymore. I get my pants taken away from my paycheck every week. Guess what happens to home service prices when plumbers stay home and do side jobs to avoid taxes?
Well you're listening comprehension is trash because Seder didn't say every dollar you make should be taxes at 90 percent.
@monotech20.14 As is your listening comprehension. He did not mention 90% in the comment. Just a higher tax rate. Which is the problem.
Just think, you tax burden lessens with that 90% tax rate for earnings over 3 million. It would "make America great again"
@@BlurredUniverse357you don’t understand economics.
If you tax someone 90% over 3million dollars, then those people will go somewhere else. Even if they don’t physically move, they will simply incorporate where the tax rate is significantly less.
37% of 4 million dollars is more than 90% of 0 dollars incorporated in another country.
A 90% tax rate would drastically reduce tax income.
Your understanding of economics needs adjusting.
You are the person that would benefit from sam Seder’s policies.
Nothing is more funny to me than conservatives voting against their own self interest.
Yes, the top rate was 90% First, the net rate paid was MUCH less due to the deductions they could take. Second, the unintended consequence was people being paid in benefits not income to get around the tax. Third, lots of capital left the country to countries with lower taxes. If he really believes people paid 90% on taxes, he also would buy a bridge that you had to sell.

He said 3 million, and it's sad to see how the false claims of the American dream where you actually think you will become one of the 1% have you believing you will ever be affected by that is hilarious.

We don't have a money making problem, we have a government spending problem
No. Like the guy on losing his voice on the left was trying to point out, we have a population that’s too dumb to manage money problem.
This then leads to electing the type of government that has a spending problem.
Which then leads to a guy like this thinking the solution would be more taxation.
We have a government spending problem, everything should be privatized including Medicare and social security, fuck the people that actually work for a living! I love making money and exploiting the working class!
The tax cuts in 2017 significantly reduced government income, in an already indebted country, without cuts. Will add more than 2 trillion in debt. You sure we don’t have a money making problem?
No we have an education problem because you are stuck in 1980s talking points
@Seek and Destroy how’d we get to highest levels of unhoused, uneducated, under insured and in debt? All while you say “spending too much” 🤣 get real
Problem is that Medicare does not lower cost for the citizens and even supplemental doesn't help the vast majority of people save money, in fact you have to pay more for a majority of services.
2/3 of seniors being in senior centers is horrible we have created a society where people don’t take care of their parents so this ruins family values
This guy has zero clue about what government healthcare really is. I worked in Medicare nursing homes for over 13 years and let me you tell you first hand experience it’s horrible healthcare!!! The doctors are awful, they often won’t run tests that are needed because they don’t deem it necessary, the food is horrific. I could go on and on.
Better than no healthcare...
My experience with free health care in New Zealand was amazing. Cracked my head open. CT scans, blood worm staples on my head the works, and it cost me zero dollars.

90% worked in the 50s. The flaw in the hosts point about people will stop working after they reach 3 million income. If I'm a manufacturer of a product and I stop due to taxes being too high someone else will step in to produce that product. Bingo two oeople now making 3 million rather that one making 6 million
Really??? People just automatically have the ability to "step in and produce that product"?? Even if they did, would it be the same product, would it be a quality product, would it be a safe product?? Pardon me, but I really don't want someone like you filling the void of a quality doctor that has reached 3 million in income and can't remove the patient's appendix. I'm pretty sure the patient doesn't want you doing the operation either.
Capitalism has created redundant or overlap businesses. There is not only one great doctor for you there is not only one great cell phone company there is not only one great car manufacturer. We are all kidding ourselves if we think excess wealth is good for the whole. It's not buying happiness it's feeding an unhealthy ego and that's useless to the entire human race. I am all ears, what is your plan. There is only so much money floating around the world. How horrible a life would it be with a 1 million per year income. Really think about that for a split second
Also who said I was going to be your doctor? What the hell.

Glad you pointed this out - that was the most exhausting part of this interview.
To b fair they just talk about same things both sides disagree on forever and never reach compromise. They just talk about things so it's already pre talk not based on any mind reading. They talk about this over and over and just collect the click views and get paid.

I am an estimator for construction jobs for government contracts. If it is an 8A set aside, my normal bid for a $100k project would turn into $160k just because of the stipulated required increases the government makes us include. So instead of profiting $15-30k on that $100k, it turns to $75-90k profit for the business. Yes, PROFIT take home for the company owner after all overhead

@@shaun5047 whatever the income level is that's agreed on, that should be the cap. Make a billion after, but it'll be taxed hard
@@Brad-pc3bi That would be super difficult because no one can agree on the cap income level. Once someone makes over 500,000 they’re already taxed 37%.

If someone is able to make millions or even billions, I’m not sure why people assume they’ll just give up nearly half of it just because.

Summary of FY 2024 Budget Request and Appropriations Postal Service Fund
• For FY2024, the President's budget includes a request of $75.5 million for the Postal Service Fund to compensate for revenue forgone in providing free and reduced mail. This is $25.28 million more than the FY2023 request and FY2023 enacted appropriations.
• Both the President's budget and the USPS FY2024
Congressional Budget Submission request an additional $307.224 million to compensate for previous years' revenue forgone that was not appropriated or made available to the Postal Service.
• Additionally, the President's budget requests $191.573
million to reimburse USPS for reduced cost mall service between the United States and the Freely Associated States (i.e., Republic of the Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, and Republic of Palau). Under the Compacts of Free Association, mail delivery between the United States and the Freely Associated States is priced and treated as domestic rather than international mail. (USPS, Domestic Mail Manual, Section 608.2.)
• H.R. 4664 would provide $35.4 million for the PSF, which is $14.83 million below the FY2023 enacted appropriation and $40.1 million below the amount requested. S. 2309 would provide $50.3 million,
Taking Raegan's example at it's word (assuming it could be extrapolated out to others in highly skilled contract work), doing 2 movies instead of 5 results in a democratized industry that encourages investing in new and diverse talent.
