@elmartillogrande Use some math my dude. You have to spend 120,000$ to eat up the extra 12k from the Freedom Dividend. Also he's been on the record that the Vat tax will be non applicable to staple goods and basic resources that the majority of lower and middle class citizens buy. It would be mainly on luxury goods such as boats and cars as well as tapping into the untouched/ untaxed technology transactions. We'd be getting a slice of very google search, youtube and facebook ad. Ya know all the services that profit off of your information. Quit listening to the talking heads that want to keep the status quo.
@@gregalvarez8120 in addition to Greg, there isn't any income limit as there are with many social programs. Think of all the people who can't opt in to social services now because they make a smidge over the threshold of current services
Hey Des Moines Register, *What happened to the AARP Forum video with Andrew Yang? Why is it missing?* How come you only post the videos for the other candidates?
YangGang is a grassroots movement. Everyone should advertise the campaign feverishly.. It makes sense, if you make the people close to you ACTUALLY LISTEN to him..
You are BLINDED by $1,000 a month which you WILL NEVER SEE!! The ONLY way he can come up with $250,000,000,000 a month is IF he has a pet UNICORN in his back yard that eats GREEN grass ans S##TS 100 dollar bills!! TRUMP 2020
yea , but he knows nothing about economics.. and Why is Yang not being investigated for bribing American voters with $1,000 a month? I thought it's clearly his position
@@namewithheld7835 why wasn't Obama investigated for bribing wall street and Citibank by bailing them out? Why wasn't Trump investigated for bribing the private military complex 780 billion $ and rich people - on average - 70k a year? Use your brain.
This comment illustrates just how degraded our politics have become. Spending $ on war, torture, for-profit prisons, medieval walls, banks, and Trump’s golfing? No prob. Spend $ on regular Americans? WHAT THE HELL!!!!!
Name Withheld those of us who do know about economics actually see how some form of UBI makes sense in the years to come. He isn’t bribing families but rather trying to give some insight as to how his policy might work. The families he chose some were not necessarily poor but it goes out to show how much UBI would help just about 95% of Americans
I watched a lot of his interviews. He obviously practices his key points to make it clear and easy to understand, but from time to time, he drifts off and mentions something from his experience that align with what he saying. When someone does that, you know he's not hiding an agenda, just speaking from an honest analytical prospective of the economic crisis in America.
The Corporate media is not going to let Yang spread his message, Its up to us "the people" to spread the word, all you have to do is ask someone you know is this question, Have you heard of Andrew Yang?
We need to at least nominate him for the Democratic primary. If we don't, it's going to be a huge missed opportunity to transform our economy and lives.
elmartillogrande you just going to keep posting this on every comment without doing any research or responding to people who are debunking what you are posting?
Exactly! I can't believe ppl got brainwashed (again) by "democratic socialism" idea of Bernie. Bernie is a kind old man and he does fight for the ppl but his policies have no context and it's worrying. This country thrives on Capitalism, all we gotta do is make it as you said "human-centered" and that seems achievable with Yang freedom dividend.
Human Centered Capitalism is an oxymoron. Capitalism is synonymous with profits for the CEO and investors. Not the workers... which is why over the last 40 years profits and CEO pay went up dramatically but not the pay for the workers. VAT taxes are regressive (that means that the poorest are hurt by it.
@@leelull4278 If I hand you $1,000 and you don't spend it, but pay off your debts, your VAT is $0. If you spend all $1,000 on things affected by a VAT, which is not things like food, medical care, day care, education, etc., then your VAT will be $100. Explain to me how paying a $100 VAT and spending $900 would be bad for someone who is working part time, or staying at home to care for their kids or their parents, or who is in school working minimum wage, or who is just trying to save so they can get out of an abusive relationship or move to a better location. VAT is regressive only on the top 6% of US citizens, according to math.
If Bernie does not add a UBI plan like the Freedom Dividend he's not going to get or deserve the vote. Bernie use to be on board but something changed. Regardless Yang and the Gang are going to March him to the White House in 2020.
@@Jonathan-mp3ju I simply disagree my friend. Conservatives and Libertarians do not agree with Bernie as far as I have found. The way to win is for us to forget party lines. George Washington himself said that too much dependency on parties is bad for Americans and while it's natural and unavoidable, we should avoid just voting for the party. We need to step up and be real Americans.
Joe Stafiej Bernie is our only hope ? The same guy who said “yes middle class will pay more taxes but don’t worry healthcare will be free” and his solution to reforming health is to “March” ? 😂😂😂
@Rohun Shroff really? Bernie is in philidelphia right now trying to save a hospital from becoming a luxury condo. Bernie has been to the midwest supporting workers. You think he has no appeal to this voting bloc you are mistaken.
The Des Moines Register should endorse Yang. His answers here are like an oasis to those wandering in the political desert for years... REAL ANSWERS. A REAL PLAN. Amazing.

Yang is so refreshing as a candidate. Would love to have a data driven, economically minded, business-experienced pragmatic visionary that doesn’t spew divisive rhetoric in the White House. The first Democrat I’ve ever been excited for and the first candidate I’ve ever financially supported. UBI properly implemented is one of the most effective, efficient, simple, fair, and cheapest ways to accomplish many of the progressive economic/inequality goals that truly benefit everyone.
@irregularexpression I think it should be stressed that the Freedom Dividend is just one form of UBI, which has been tried in different ways usually targeted only at the homeless with means testing and all kinds of red tape. Credit to Andrew for the vision to go beyond all those limitations to articulate a vision that is much more small government and broadly inclusive. The US is the only country rich enough to institute such a reform on tech profits. Only question is whether the political will could be mustered.
@@charlesqdu I don't know but I assume it would be possible to institute such a reform everywhere around the world. So not only with a tax on tech profits, but also with a financial transaction tax. This means that for each and every transaction money is put aside, for the UBI. Check: Richard David Precht from Germany.
@@Roderik1R automation profits + financial transaction tax + carbon tax are actually the three component sources of funding proposed for the Freedom Dividend to reach deficit neutral, so financial transaction tax alone probably won't be enough
People you don’t have to change your party to vote for yang - i don’t know why people are saying this you can vote for him when being a conservative or an independent
Why am I so additive to Yang content everyday😂. I wasn’t even into politics three months ago. I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. The interviewers definitely did research on Yang and asked thoughtful questions professionally. There is no interruption or talking over. They allowed Yang to have enough time to explain himself. Thank you so much for sharing it on YT. It makes my day.🙏
I can relate. Joe Rogan's podcast with Yang changed my political involvement drastically. I voted in a local election for the firt time this Spring because I wanted practice voting for the primaries. First time voting. First time donating to a campaign. This guy is special.
Imagine elevating the country to facing real problems and not be bogged down into divisive or petty politics we have right now about who wins the day for some political stunt. This is the guy we need and we need him in 2020

This man is a compassionate genius. Such a rare person that is running for president. The kind of social change that could happen if even just his top 3 policies were implemented, makes this an exciting time to be alive! YANG2020 Let's go all the way to the White house!
@@deletedchannel9945 No geniuses supporting him? I suppose you don't consider Elon Musk a genius? And to the contrary very intelligent people are supporting Yang because they are smart enough to understand his policies. Those supposed negatives that you rattled off are untrue do a bit of research. Stop assuming you know and do research to find out the true facts.
@@deletedchannel9945 I have a few questions. What about yangs policies is a radical new socialist agenda? Why wouldn't ideas with bipartisan support pass in congress? And what about yangs policies hasnt been expressed budget wise? People tend to get heated when yang is questioned, but I encourage it. Iron sharpens iron. Critical feedback is incredibly valuable. But Yang has discussed his proposals and how they would be paid for at length, and id be happy to share some of that with you if you're interested at all in hearing it.
@@deletedchannel9945 you're loud and wrong and all of your claims are based on nothing besides calling Yang a fraud. Your counter research shows up no viable results. You are looking like the fraud here...
@@deletedchannel9945 alright since Yang supporters are 'clueless', I'd like to hear who you are voting for over Yang and why? Everyone has an opinion, what's yours?
He does his research and studies. He makes sure that its a fact and not a possibility or assumption. Would be, should be, could be? Yang makes sure its a will be.
elmartillogrande it’s up to the people to lose their benefits. If you chose to that’s on you, depending if you spend your 1000 dollars wisely (most wont). It takes a heavier tax than 10% on all goods and services to counter 12,000 extra dollars in the hands of every American over 18. You need to do more research, I don’t blame you for calling out yangs policies but you’re just wrong. If you got it right I would admit it
@@abel3619 Did you see the interview with Andrew Yang and Dave Rubin where AY said its a more politically feasible way to eliminate the welfare bureaucracy than to just outright gut it? I remember him talking about sunset provisions before also, did he change his mind? Too many red flags in my book.
Henry Gustav no he didn’t from what I know. But it’s exactly why I love Andrew yang. He knows in order to get some weight off the government we need to find a way to lift people up. You wouldn’t want to be living with you’re parents till your 40, why would you want to be dependent on the government you’re entire life? 1000 bucks a month can really help people get out of bad communities or even invest into the bad ones to make them great. If people set their priorities, we can do anything
It's refreshing not hearing a candidate speak in "political" platitudes, saying things like "that's a conversation we need to have" when they don't have an answer or a possible solution. Yang seems to have done his homework, understanding the problems we are facing, and answers with facts and solutions.
can you really trust a former corporate lawyer that worked for Davis Polk & Wardwell in international law firm that had clients like Jp Morgan Chase? AY has the corporate mindset, not something we need as President and we should be wary of who we trust always.
@@henrygustav7948 He quickly realized it wasn't for him and quit after only 5 months. He later devoted his life to a leading a non-profit. And he doesn't accept any corporate money for his campaign. Far apart from being "corporate" I would say.
@@henrygustav7948 I like how you keep on spreading fake news, over and over, about how UBI is used to get rid of welfare... Listen, *UBI is opt in by choice*. In addition, anyone with a brain would choose $1,000 *TAX FREE CASH* UBI over food stamps and welfare! Why? Because 1) You get more with UBI, 2) You keep UBI even if you go to work... whereas welfare would be gone when you start working!
One of the best parts is how little political baggage he has. He does not care one iota what party you belong to or who said what idea. What matters is real results for real people. Yang is the candidate to lead us into the new millennium. Yang 2020!
@@whiteamerica2809 You realize how having a screen name like that just shows your cards before you even comment. White America would be much better off with Yang because they would have a freedomdividend each month to pay bills to prevent them from dipping into their nest eggs and life savings

@@henrygustav7948 He's not a corporate lawyer. Saying this over and over doesn't make it true. Post a link with his court cases if you have proof otherwise. Working through law school and working as a lawyer for 5 months is not what you are implying and you are being very disingenuous. If you think Bernie is so great then there is nothing wrong with that, but #YangGang doesn't go to Bernie videos and make stuff up.

He chooses his words carefully. He's straightforward and doesn't mind answering an off the topic question about his watch. Says a lot about him not being offended easily. There's so much drama that people want in debates but he won't give them that because he isn't offended that easily. He doesn't have to interrupt people to shoot back at their attacks against him. He knows people only care about solutions.
Yang is so insightful on nearly every issue he talks about. He speaks data backed common sense with no political jargon and he's got the forward looking vision that's sorely lacking from our political dialogue.
I like this format better than 1 on 1 interviews and stump speeches. It shows how fast and maneuverable Yang's mind is. He has his talking points but if someone throws down an unexpected question he will answer it directly instead of falling back to a rehearsed general answer. Having a board of people coming at him with questions just accelerates this process.
Dear Iowans, our country is ultimately in your hands. Please endorse this man. He is our only hope. This isn't Avengers. We can't go back and fix the timeline if we screw this up again.
This is it! There is no second chance. It's UBI for 2020 or nothing! Let's not mess this up, Iowan voters! The rest of the country depends on you to make the right choice!
@@E-bikeEnthusiast They should just make the primary election date the same for all states. It makes no sense to run it on different dates, because it makes the votes in many states less important. But if we think about it, the party can change this rule to make it more fair for everyone, but they haven't. Why? The party leaders don't care about fairness. They just want to have control over who wins.
I'm completely enthralled whenever Yang gives interviews. Such a wealth of information and insight that far surpasses any other candidate. #Yang2020 #HumanityFirst #YangGang
Sign me up to the list! And the reason why I would 100% do this is because I know that when the Dividend is passed, the local economy will be super strong with all the cash flow that it would be much easier to find a well paying job.
Agree or disagree with his policies, there is no one in the race who is as good in a long form discussion. That shows thought put behind what he thinks. I'll take agreeing with some and disagreeing with others, but believing that you came to your ideas through honest effort than just about any combination of politics that were handed in by focus testing or party platforms.

Thanks Des Moines Register for this interview. I learned a lot and Andrew Yang is definitely an unique candidate who is years ahead of the other candidates. I really hope he can become President.
He is so extremely knowlegeable on EVERYTHING on how to solve problems in our daily lives!!! Who among all candidates can even compare to him? Let alone honestly answering all the questions directly... Seriously, if no one acknowleged this, the country is doomed...
Thank you Des Moines Register for a super interview and excellent probing questions about real issues. A double thank you for introducing Andrew Yang. I am astounded, amazed and excited about the depths of this man's understanding of our nation problems and he has solutions! He is right. Your paper is so important to help our country go in the right direction. It is my hope you will endorse him immediately and strongly. It may not be the "coolest" or the most "popular" thing to do, but supporting Mr. Yang is the right thing for our country.

Thank you so much for giving Andrew Yang the chance to go deep on some of those issues and demonstrate clearly that complex problems and solutions need more than a minute to explain!
This is the best presidential candidate in my adult lifetime. He's the only candidate that doesn't demonize his opponents and frame everything as us vs. them. Our country needs this spirit more than ever. Even if you don't agree with all of Yang's policies, at least you can trust that he will consider the facts of the issue and is willing to listen to other ideas. He's not ideological and he's not bought/funded by any special interest group so he doesn't owe anyone anything. But the most important thing about Yang is that his moral compass only cares about humanity. He's not pushing a socialist or capitalist agenda. In the age of technology, standing up for humanity is as important as ever in the history of our species.
I've seen so much Yang interviews now that I cannot even emphasize anymore in language how much the U.S. of A. NEEDS Yang. He is the first and only politician I've ever seen in my life that doesn't care about what he wears, his demeanor, or what he says. What I mean is, he is actually like me and you and you can see that and feel it. I could drink a beer with this guy and I don't even drink. He is so relaxed and focused and is the only person I've ever seen to actually show compassion and some heart. I've never been able to trust any other politian in my life because you can never tell if they are just trying to "win." Yang doesn't give me that sense at all. I think he is a once in a lifetime candidate and could be the best president of all time or in a very long time at least. Humanity First. Yang 2020. Good luck and Godspeed
I hope Iowan's are truly paying attention because we need to change our path or else the divide is going to get worse and those are the conditions needed for civil war of any degree. History repeats itself if you keep doing the same thing. We should avoid that at all costs.
Don't let anybody tell you this guy has no crossover appeal. I'm a registered republican that voted for Trump in 2016 and I will be changing my registration to democrat so I can support Andrew Yang. He is everything we need right now.
Imagine 2021 UBI is passed. Everyone gets 1K! A lot of lives will get better & better!! VOTE FOR YANG! If you don't vote for him, in 2024 he might not run again!!
Andrew Yang is correct regarding the causes of doctor shortage (35 minute mark). Also the differences in licensing requirements are not materially different among the 50 states but what needs to accomplished in some states (need 2 colleagues to sign that an applicant is of upstanding ethics and moral fiber) while other states do not, seem idiosyncratic...
People like to nitpick at any weakness they perceive in Andrew's platform. How absurd ! The totality of it is good and the general ideas are solid. Andrew would also make adjustments and change his mind when necessary. he has already done this on a few issues. An open, intelligent mind is what we need, not perfection.

Regardless of party lines, I will always pick a candidate who has researched, analyzed, and is passionate about his ideas and solutions to such a level that he can explain his motivation and reasoning for hours. It doesn’t matter if I agree with him on every point, because there will always be different views on every topic. But what is crucial, is that he understands the key problems, has the American people’s well-being at heart and is laser-focused on resolving problems to benefit people! Yang for President in 2020!
If I had an extra thousand dollars a month I would put 50% in my Roth IRA and spend the rest on a Spanish tutor and living expenses. I work in a school district that is about 40% Hispanic so learning Spanish would take me to the next level as an educator. I already save a lot of money and have no debt or car payment, live by myself, so the Freedom Dividend would help me save more money for things like buying a plane ticket to see my parents, saving money for a house, building up a safety net of income, etc. I'm pulling for either Yang or Tulsi,.
Yang’s ideas are revolutionary. If he became president, he would really change things up. He’s not talking the same talking points as other people because he is completely authentic and speaking from his heart and mind as himself. If he gets into the White House, how effective will he be in creating the change he wants? I think he has great ideas and the right mindset. But I’m not sure if society is ready for real change or more of same old same old. I think his ideas are too progressive for most people to accept since we live in a country where people are mostly afraid of change in any form. They desire it and hope for it but can’t deal with it and turn away from it ultimately. That’s why problems don’t get solved, and most people rather blame the government for their issues.
SLL Imagine Yang being able to go in front of Congress and speak for as long as he’d like......I think he’ll be highly effective because partisan politics isn’t a game he plays.
in the short term, when he wins once UBI goes into affect people will change a lot of their attitude toward govt. In the longer term Democracy Dollars will give power back to the voters. If people wait to be ready for real change it will be too late and the kind of change we have to deal with will have to be much more drastic and destructive to our way of life. I hope more people start looking towards the long term and decide if they actually would rather avoid a painful large scale peoples revolution in 10 years with no guarantee of a positive outcome. We need these major changes now if capitalism and democracy is going to survive otherwise who knows what we will get. #MATH #Yang2020
Another great interview with Andrew Yang! This is the team that should be running the debates! They clearly did their research and had questions with substance that I was interested in hearing about. Andrew Yang has a plan that will help every American in every town in the country. We would be crazy to at least not try the Freedom Dividend!
@Allan Crow This interview in Iowa is very important. It is why I spent a few hours creating a list of time stamps for this interview. However, it needs more likes and replies to get to the top. Please help me help Andrew by looking for my comment... click *Comments* , SORT BY, Newest First. Thanks!
The Corporate media is not going to let Yang spread his message, Its up to us "the people" to spread the word, all you have to do is ask someone you know is this question, Have you heard of Andrew Yang?
It's funny how other videos of other candidates have like 20 or 30 views, and maybe a 700 here or there...but Yang's already got over 3200 views in only a few hours. 😂
If $12k/year is enough for someone to be "disincentivized" to work then what are the odds that person would have otherwise made a meaningful contribution to society?? Giving all citizens $12k/year merely provides everybody with the same "safely net" that only the children of the 1% currently have. Level the playing field!
we all know trump could never interview with this level of intelligence, but could you imagine Biden putting out this kind of info on same level as yang? Not. that's no bs about the powerpoint chants btw
Former politically-disengaged person here. Yang's Freedom Dividend will positively change the world as other nations become compelled to follow suit or risk losing their best people to the U.S.

Yang seems ready to bring the heat in the next debate.
@elmartillogrande Go do some research idiot.
@elmartillogrande Use some math my dude. You have to spend 120,000$ to eat up the extra 12k from the Freedom Dividend. Also he's been on the record that the Vat tax will be non applicable to staple goods and basic resources that the majority of lower and middle class citizens buy. It would be mainly on luxury goods such as boats and cars as well as tapping into the untouched/ untaxed technology transactions. We'd be getting a slice of very google search, youtube and facebook ad. Ya know all the services that profit off of your information. Quit listening to the talking heads that want to keep the status quo.
You make no sense. He clearly says he would not take away any social benefits. UBI is Opt-in smh
@@gregalvarez8120 in addition to Greg, there isn't any income limit as there are with many social programs. Think of all the people who can't opt in to social services now because they make a smidge over the threshold of current services
that is if they dont kill his mic .
Andrew has my respect and vote. Love this guy
Hey Des Moines Register,
*What happened to the AARP Forum video with Andrew Yang? Why is it missing?*
How come you only post the videos for the other candidates?
Yang is a con man
How does this not make sense to everyone?!
We may have some of the best and brightest but we also have some of the dumbest.
I think it does, to everyone who hears the whole thing.
YangGang is a grassroots movement. Everyone should advertise the campaign feverishly..
It makes sense, if you make the people close to you ACTUALLY LISTEN to him..
Einstein said two things were infinite the universe and human stupidity then he said he wasn’t too sure about the first.
Because we still need to make America think harder
Best guy for president I've ever seen.

Once in successive generations ever. The rest are same rhetorics.
Agree 100%
Guess you're BLIND then!! google "snake oil" see the REAL YINYANG!! !!

Why Yang does so well in long interviews? that's because he actually have policies and knows what his talking about! #Yang2020
yea , but he knows nothing about economics.. and Why is Yang not being investigated for bribing American voters with $1,000 a month? I thought it's clearly his position
@@namewithheld7835 why wasn't Obama investigated for bribing wall street and Citibank by bailing them out? Why wasn't Trump investigated for bribing the private military complex 780 billion $ and rich people - on average - 70k a year? Use your brain.
This comment illustrates just how degraded our politics have become. Spending $ on war, torture, for-profit prisons, medieval walls, banks, and Trump’s golfing? No prob. Spend $ on regular Americans? WHAT THE HELL!!!!!
Name Withheld those of us who do know about economics actually see how some form of UBI makes sense in the years to come. He isn’t bribing families but rather trying to give some insight as to how his policy might work. The families he chose some were not necessarily poor but it goes out to show how much UBI would help just about 95% of Americans
I watched a lot of his interviews. He obviously practices his key points to make it clear and easy to understand, but from time to time, he drifts off and mentions something from his experience that align with what he saying. When someone does that, you know he's not hiding an agenda, just speaking from an honest analytical prospective of the economic crisis in America.
This guy does so well in long interviews.
Trump would be bored and make funny faces.

I believe in this visionary, Andrew Yang! "Humanity First" and "Human-Centered Economy" 💯💯
elmartillogrande you just going to keep posting this on every comment without doing any research or responding to people who are debunking what you are posting?
Exactly! I can't believe ppl got brainwashed (again) by "democratic socialism" idea of Bernie. Bernie is a kind old man and he does fight for the ppl but his policies have no context and it's worrying.
This country thrives on Capitalism, all we gotta do is make it as you said "human-centered" and that seems achievable with Yang freedom dividend.
Human Centered Capitalism is an oxymoron. Capitalism is synonymous with profits for the CEO and investors. Not the workers... which is why over the last 40 years profits and CEO pay went up dramatically but not the pay for the workers. VAT taxes are regressive (that means that the poorest are hurt by it.
@@leelull4278 If I hand you $1,000 and you don't spend it, but pay off your debts, your VAT is $0. If you spend all $1,000 on things affected by a VAT, which is not things like food, medical care, day care, education, etc., then your VAT will be $100. Explain to me how paying a $100 VAT and spending $900 would be bad for someone who is working part time, or staying at home to care for their kids or their parents, or who is in school working minimum wage, or who is just trying to save so they can get out of an abusive relationship or move to a better location. VAT is regressive only on the top 6% of US citizens, according to math.
Why is Yang not being investigated for bribing American voters with $1,000 a month? I thought it's clearly his position

If Bernie does not add a UBI plan like the Freedom Dividend he's not going to get or deserve the vote. Bernie use to be on board but something changed.
Regardless Yang and the Gang are going to March him to the White House in 2020.
@@Jonathan-mp3ju I simply disagree my friend. Conservatives and Libertarians do not agree with Bernie as far as I have found. The way to win is for us to forget party lines. George Washington himself said that too much dependency on parties is bad for Americans and while it's natural and unavoidable, we should avoid just voting for the party. We need to step up and be real Americans.
Glad to see this
Joe Stafiej Bernie is our only hope ? The same guy who said “yes middle class will pay more taxes but don’t worry healthcare will be free” and his solution to reforming health is to “March” ? 😂😂😂
@Rohun Shroff really? Bernie is in philidelphia right now trying to save a hospital from becoming a luxury condo. Bernie has been to the midwest supporting workers. You think he has no appeal to this voting bloc you are mistaken.
The Des Moines Register should endorse Yang. His answers here are like an oasis to those wandering in the political desert for years... REAL ANSWERS. A REAL PLAN. Amazing.
An oasis indeed my friend..very well put😁
And the UBI to struggling working class families is like water.

Yang is so refreshing as a candidate. Would love to have a data driven, economically minded, business-experienced pragmatic visionary that doesn’t spew divisive rhetoric in the White House. The first Democrat I’ve ever been excited for and the first candidate I’ve ever financially supported.
UBI properly implemented is one of the most effective, efficient, simple, fair, and cheapest ways to accomplish many of the progressive economic/inequality goals that truly benefit everyone.
@irregularexpression I think it should be stressed that the Freedom Dividend is just one form of UBI, which has been tried in different ways usually targeted only at the homeless with means testing and all kinds of red tape.
Credit to Andrew for the vision to go beyond all those limitations to articulate a vision that is much more small government and broadly inclusive.
The US is the only country rich enough to institute such a reform on tech profits. Only question is whether the political will could be mustered.
I am glad there are quite some smart people out there. I trust American's IQ.
@@charlesqdu I don't know but I assume it would be possible to institute such a reform everywhere around the world. So not only with a tax on tech profits, but also with a financial transaction tax. This means that for each and every transaction money is put aside, for the UBI. Check: Richard David Precht from Germany.
@@Roderik1R automation profits + financial transaction tax + carbon tax are actually the three component sources of funding proposed for the Freedom Dividend to reach deficit neutral, so financial transaction tax alone probably won't be enough
Well said Travis Harger.
As an Iowan, I accept the responsibility of voting for Mr. Yang.
Don't forget to register as a Democrat so you can vote for him in the primaries
hope you're spreading the word!
You are doing the lords work.
I'll stand next to you during the primaries. Don't worry, I don't bite. 😁
People you don’t have to change your party to vote for yang - i don’t know why people are saying this you can vote for him when being a conservative or an independent
Fellow Iowan here. Lets do our best!
Why am I so additive to Yang content everyday😂. I wasn’t even into politics three months ago.
I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. The interviewers definitely did research on Yang and asked thoughtful questions professionally. There is no interruption or talking over. They allowed Yang to have enough time to explain himself.
Thank you so much for sharing it on YT. It makes my day.🙏

I gave up on politics years ago. This totally changed after I watched Joe Rogan's interview of Andrew Yang in Feb of this year.

I can relate. Joe Rogan's podcast with Yang changed my political involvement drastically. I voted in a local election for the firt time this Spring because I wanted practice voting for the primaries. First time voting. First time donating to a campaign. This guy is special.
This guy understands more about current and future problems and communicates better than any other candidate. This is the opportunity of a generation.
Knows how to con a crowd for sure!! google snake oil salesman!! THAT'S YINYANG!!!
Imagine elevating the country to facing real problems and not be bogged down into divisive or petty politics we have right now about who wins the day for some political stunt. This is the guy we need and we need him in 2020

This man is a compassionate genius. Such a rare person that is running for president. The kind of social change that could happen if even just his top 3 policies were implemented, makes this an exciting time to be alive! YANG2020 Let's go all the way to the White house!
@@deletedchannel9945 No geniuses supporting him? I suppose you don't consider Elon Musk a genius? And to the contrary very intelligent people are supporting Yang because they are smart enough to understand his policies. Those supposed negatives that you rattled off are untrue do a bit of research. Stop assuming you know and do research to find out the true facts.
@@deletedchannel9945 I have a few questions. What about yangs policies is a radical new socialist agenda? Why wouldn't ideas with bipartisan support pass in congress? And what about yangs policies hasnt been expressed budget wise?
People tend to get heated when yang is questioned, but I encourage it. Iron sharpens iron. Critical feedback is incredibly valuable. But Yang has discussed his proposals and how they would be paid for at length, and id be happy to share some of that with you if you're interested at all in hearing it.
@@deletedchannel9945 you're loud and wrong and all of your claims are based on nothing besides calling Yang a fraud. Your counter research shows up no viable results. You are looking like the fraud here...
@@deletedchannel9945 alright since Yang supporters are 'clueless', I'd like to hear who you are voting for over Yang and why? Everyone has an opinion, what's yours?
Andrew Yang is so stupid he needs to STFU
He does his research and studies. He makes sure that its a fact and not a possibility or assumption. Would be, should be, could be? Yang makes sure its a will be.
Is Ha your last name? If so, cool last name.
Thanks. Yes it is 🙂
He has defensible stances. That doesn't mean his predictions, ideas, and framing of arguments are in fact correct.
Facts
@ It makes them far more sound than ideas without facts or substance for sure.
Andrew ignites a true (hard to match) passion with the people based on his brutal honesty and his straight-forward policy.
but can you really trust a former corporate lawyer who worked for an international law firm representing clients like Jp Morgan Chase?
elmartillogrande it’s up to the people to lose their benefits. If you chose to that’s on you, depending if you spend your 1000 dollars wisely (most wont). It takes a heavier tax than 10% on all goods and services to counter 12,000 extra dollars in the hands of every American over 18. You need to do more research, I don’t blame you for calling out yangs policies but you’re just wrong. If you got it right I would admit it
@@abel3619 Did you see the interview with Andrew Yang and Dave Rubin where AY said its a more politically feasible way to eliminate the welfare bureaucracy than to just outright gut it? I remember him talking about sunset provisions before also, did he change his mind? Too many red flags in my book.
Henry Gustav no he didn’t from what I know. But it’s exactly why I love Andrew yang. He knows in order to get some weight off the government we need to find a way to lift people up. You wouldn’t want to be living with you’re parents till your 40, why would you want to be dependent on the government you’re entire life? 1000 bucks a month can really help people get out of bad communities or even invest into the bad ones to make them great. If people set their priorities, we can do anything
@elmartillogrande ... You obviously are a Castro fan. Your name says it all. lol.
It's refreshing not hearing a candidate speak in "political" platitudes, saying things like "that's a conversation we need to have" when they don't have an answer or a possible solution. Yang seems to have done his homework, understanding the problems we are facing, and answers with facts and solutions.
can you really trust a former corporate lawyer that worked for Davis Polk & Wardwell in international law firm that had clients like Jp Morgan Chase? AY has the corporate mindset, not something we need as President and we should be wary of who we trust always.
@@henrygustav7948 He quickly realized it wasn't for him and quit after only 5 months. He later devoted his life to a leading a non-profit. And he doesn't accept any corporate money for his campaign. Far apart from being "corporate" I would say.

Iowa it's in your hands don't let us down #forthecountry
Yes, Iowa voters, you can change the economy of our country with your votes for this primary! Please don't let the rest of the country down, please! 👍
They won't 60% for TRUMP, maybe 70
He chooses his words carefully. He's straightforward and doesn't mind answering an off the topic question about his watch. Says a lot about him not being offended easily. There's so much drama that people want in debates but he won't give them that because he isn't offended that easily. He doesn't have to interrupt people to shoot back at their attacks against him. He knows people only care about solutions.
Yang is so insightful on nearly every issue he talks about. He speaks data backed common sense with no political jargon and he's got the forward looking vision that's sorely lacking from our political dialogue.
every single Yang video has the largest amount of like to dislike ratio of almost any other videos lol
The way he talks... the policies he’s about... just give him the Presidency and let’s make America great!
i love how it’s only asians supporting him. y’all must work for Xi
He’s the only person who can unite the country. He’s the only person who’s United a TH-cam comment section!
He unites just about every youtube comment section across the political spectrum.
Wow! I’m impressed!
I like this format better than 1 on 1 interviews and stump speeches. It shows how fast and maneuverable Yang's mind is. He has his talking points but if someone throws down an unexpected question he will answer it directly instead of falling back to a rehearsed general answer. Having a board of people coming at him with questions just accelerates this process.
Dear Iowans, our country is ultimately in your hands. Please endorse this man. He is our only hope. This isn't Avengers. We can't go back and fix the timeline if we screw this up again.
This is it! There is no second chance. It's UBI for 2020 or nothing! Let's not mess this up, Iowan voters! The rest of the country depends on you to make the right choice!
I wish they'd let us Kansans vote first so then we'd atleast have that going for us, but noooo.
@@E-bikeEnthusiast They should just make the primary election date the same for all states. It makes no sense to run it on different dates, because it makes the votes in many states less important.
But if we think about it, the party can change this rule to make it more fair for everyone, but they haven't. Why? The party leaders don't care about fairness. They just want to have control over who wins.
PLEASE don't let your country down!! VOTE TRUMP Dump the snake oil salesman 11
Crushed it again! You got this Andrew!
I'm completely enthralled whenever Yang gives interviews. Such a wealth of information and insight that far surpasses any other candidate. #Yang2020 #HumanityFirst #YangGang

“I would 100% sacrifice my freedom dividend in exchange for a Yang Presidency.” Comment by autumnstarrs
Sign me up to the list! And the reason why I would 100% do this is because I know that when the Dividend is passed, the local economy will be super strong with all the cash flow that it would be much easier to find a well paying job.

@@whiteamerica2809 You keep trolling every Yang video. Best to ignore trolls. Over & Out!
@@IMSiegfried Ya for real, I have seen "White America" trolling all of the video's where Andrew Yang appears. Almost makes me laugh!
Agree or disagree with his policies, there is no one in the race who is as good in a long form discussion. That shows thought put behind what he thinks. I'll take agreeing with some and disagreeing with others, but believing that you came to your ideas through honest effort than just about any combination of politics that were handed in by focus testing or party platforms.
That is the way I see it too. I disagree on many of his policies but the way he carries himself and the fact that he can defend his policies make me like him. Hope Trump brings him and Tulsi into his cabinet in 2020, or sooner.
@ Actually, I do hope to see that, too! If Andrew and Tulsi some how gets shafted by the DNC, I hope Trump would pick them up. That would be the USA Dream Team of 2020!
@@artsparadisopracticaleduca4378 ha! I was bracing for some sort of backlash to my comment. Yang definitely seems to draw in reasonable people.
@@artsparadisopracticaleduca4378 I deeply disagree with Tulsi on most things but would install her as Secretary of State or UN Ambassador in a heartbeat. Simply due to her antiwar stance.
Yes!
Reasonable, knowledgeable and smart as a whip! If Andrew Yang doesn't become president it will be a real tragedy. Everyone spread the word about his campaign.
Andrew Yang is exactly right. His non-partisan, problem solving approach to politics is exactly what we need to get things done and lift EVERYONE up. Not left, not right - FORWARD.
23 years old and never thought it would matter to vote in the state of Kansas. Mainly since it’s a republican state but for this future president I am doing my part and voting blue. A man who has a vision for all ages/races/religion who wants us all to succeed is someone I would be proud to say that’s my president
He kicked so much butt
This man is the only one talking about the future of work in this country. I hope he wins and even if he doesn't I hope he inspires others to change the world for the better!
Thanks Des Moines Register for this interview. I learned a lot and Andrew Yang is definitely an unique candidate who is years ahead of the other candidates. I really hope he can become President.
He is so extremely knowlegeable on EVERYTHING on how to solve problems in our daily lives!!! Who among all candidates can even compare to him? Let alone honestly answering all the questions directly... Seriously, if no one acknowleged this, the country is doomed...
Thank you Des Moines Register for a super interview and excellent probing questions about real issues. A double thank you for introducing Andrew Yang. I am astounded, amazed and excited about the depths of this man's understanding of our nation problems and he has solutions! He is right. Your paper is so important to help our country go in the right direction. It is my hope you will endorse him immediately and strongly. It may not be the "coolest" or the most "popular" thing to do, but supporting Mr. Yang is the right thing for our country.
One question is, who owns the Register? Is it a hedge fund? If so, let's not get our hopes up of any endorsement.
Wow! Best candidate by far!
We've already pissed away the environment and the economy. Only logic can save us now. Yang 2020.
Whose side are you all on? Be on your own side. Be with Yang.

Thank you DM Register for this interview. I support Andrew Yang because of his pragmatic approach to the problems facing the nation.
Hey Troy
Andrew would win people over with the messages in this video. Knowing this, I have taken the time to create time stamps, so that new viewers can access the information easier. I have posted the comment 1 day ago, but it needs more 👍 and REPLY to get to the top.
Could you please help me help Andrew by looking for my comments, sort by newest first, and look for my comment (1 day ago). Please 👍 and REPLY to it. Thanks!
Thank you so much for giving Andrew Yang the chance to go deep on some of those issues and demonstrate clearly that complex problems and solutions need more than a minute to explain!
What a boss, he's able to start the discussion talking directly to an issue that the entire board is sure to be concerned about and understand.
Yang 2020 or we're shafted
y’all got shafted
So many people are tired of party politics and this is the guy that transcends it. This is the person we need as president.
This is the best presidential candidate in my adult lifetime. He's the only candidate that doesn't demonize his opponents and frame everything as us vs. them. Our country needs this spirit more than ever. Even if you don't agree with all of Yang's policies, at least you can trust that he will consider the facts of the issue and is willing to listen to other ideas. He's not ideological and he's not bought/funded by any special interest group so he doesn't owe anyone anything. But the most important thing about Yang is that his moral compass only cares about humanity. He's not pushing a socialist or capitalist agenda. In the age of technology, standing up for humanity is as important as ever in the history of our species.
I've seen so much Yang interviews now that I cannot even emphasize anymore in language how much the U.S. of A. NEEDS Yang. He is the first and only politician I've ever seen in my life that doesn't care about what he wears, his demeanor, or what he says. What I mean is, he is actually like me and you and you can see that and feel it. I could drink a beer with this guy and I don't even drink. He is so relaxed and focused and is the only person I've ever seen to actually show compassion and some heart. I've never been able to trust any other politian in my life because you can never tell if they are just trying to "win." Yang doesn't give me that sense at all. I think he is a once in a lifetime candidate and could be the best president of all time or in a very long time at least. Humanity First. Yang 2020. Good luck and Godspeed
I hope Iowan's are truly paying attention because we need to change our path or else the divide is going to get worse and those are the conditions needed for civil war of any degree. History repeats itself if you keep doing the same thing. We should avoid that at all costs.
The rest of the country depends on Iowan voters to make the right choice! Vote for the Freedom Dividend!
Don't let anybody tell you this guy has no crossover appeal. I'm a registered republican that voted for Trump in 2016 and I will be changing my registration to democrat so I can support Andrew Yang. He is everything we need right now.
Imagine 2021 UBI is passed. Everyone gets 1K! A lot of lives will get better & better!! VOTE FOR YANG!
If you don't vote for him, in 2024 he might not run again!!
For most Americans with 2 adults in the household it would be $2000 ... How can people say no to this.?!
Andrew Yang is correct regarding the causes of doctor shortage (35 minute mark). Also the differences in licensing requirements are not materially different among the 50 states but what needs to accomplished in some states (need 2 colleagues to sign that an applicant is of upstanding ethics and moral fiber) while other states do not, seem idiosyncratic...
Yang 2020! #humanityfirst
People like to nitpick at any weakness they perceive in Andrew's platform. How absurd ! The totality of it is good and the general ideas are solid. Andrew would also make adjustments and change his mind when necessary. he has already done this on a few issues. An open, intelligent mind is what we need, not perfection.
#Yang2020 110% Not voting for anyone else.

@t The primary is basically Bernie Sanders VS Hillary Clinton superdelegates. Something like 18 out of the 20 candidates are Hillary superdelegates, yeah Kamala is being favored by Establishment. $$$$$ Cha ching
Regardless of party lines, I will always pick a candidate who has researched, analyzed, and is passionate about his ideas and solutions to such a level that he can explain his motivation and reasoning for hours. It doesn’t matter if I agree with him on every point, because there will always be different views on every topic.
But what is crucial, is that he understands the key problems, has the American people’s well-being at heart and is laser-focused on resolving problems to benefit people!
Yang for President in 2020!
If I had an extra thousand dollars a month I would put 50% in my Roth IRA and spend the rest on a Spanish tutor and living expenses. I work in a school district that is about 40% Hispanic so learning Spanish would take me to the next level as an educator. I already save a lot of money and have no debt or car payment, live by myself, so the Freedom Dividend would help me save more money for things like buying a plane ticket to see my parents, saving money for a house, building up a safety net of income, etc. I'm pulling for either Yang or Tulsi,.
Right on man. #HumanityFirst
Yang’s ideas are revolutionary. If he became president, he would really change things up. He’s not talking the same talking points as other people because he is completely authentic and speaking from his heart and mind as himself. If he gets into the White House, how effective will he be in creating the change he wants? I think he has great ideas and the right mindset. But I’m not sure if society is ready for real change or more of same old same old. I think his ideas are too progressive for most people to accept since we live in a country where people are mostly afraid of change in any form. They desire it and hope for it but can’t deal with it and turn away from it ultimately. That’s why problems don’t get solved, and most people rather blame the government for their issues.
SLL Imagine Yang being able to go in front of Congress and speak for as long as he’d like......I think he’ll be highly effective because partisan politics isn’t a game he plays.
in the short term, when he wins once UBI goes into affect people will change a lot of their attitude toward govt. In the longer term Democracy Dollars will give power back to the voters. If people wait to be ready for real change it will be too late and the kind of change we have to deal with will have to be much more drastic and destructive to our way of life. I hope more people start looking towards the long term and decide if they actually would rather avoid a painful large scale peoples revolution in 10 years with no guarantee of a positive outcome. We need these major changes now if capitalism and democracy is going to survive otherwise who knows what we will get. #MATH #Yang2020
Another great interview with Andrew Yang! This is the team that should be running the debates! They clearly did their research and had questions with substance that I was interested in hearing about. Andrew Yang has a plan that will help every American in every town in the country. We would be crazy to at least not try the Freedom Dividend!
The best thing Donald trump ever did was create an environment that forced a good person like Andrew yang to run.
If he could only interview with every Editorial Board in the country. Slam dunk.

I wonder why corporate media trolls can't do long form interviews?
Coz all they've got is sound bites, 0 substinance
The Corporate media is not going to let Yang spread his message, Its up to us "the people" to spread the word, all you have to do is ask someone you know is this question, Have you heard of Andrew Yang?
Because of ads
Because they would get exposed!
Too short an attention span.
It's funny how other videos of other candidates have like 20 or 30 views, and maybe a 700 here or there...but Yang's already got over 3200 views in only a few hours. 😂
nighthawk326 yep. Not sure why the media doesnt want clicks.. thats their biz these days. He is inspirational
According to Google Trends, Andrew Yang is the #1 most searched candidate on TH-cam!!!
Thank you Des Moines Register, Joe Rogan and Ben Shapiro for giving quality interviews with Andrew Yang.
Joey Tobin What an absolutely crazy sentence about a presidential candidate, and totally true!
Detailed questions and well thought out responses. One of my top 10 favorite interviews now 👏
Finally, someone smart and reasonable who isn't suffering from Trump Derangement
If $12k/year is enough for someone to be "disincentivized" to work then what are the odds that person would have otherwise made a meaningful contribution to society?? Giving all citizens $12k/year merely provides everybody with the same "safely net" that only the children of the 1% currently have. Level the playing field!
Exactly, $12k a year just allows people to survive and avoid the cycle of destitution which is much more difficult to get out of.
we all know trump could never interview with this level of intelligence, but could you imagine Biden putting out this kind of info on same level as yang? Not. that's no bs about the powerpoint chants btw
This video was good for my mental health.
Just seeing the thumbnail of Andrew makes me want to listen to him.
Thanks for this!
Holy crap! I learned more about economics and politics in 1 hour than i did in the last 10 years!!
Powerpoint! Lol, I thought that was somewhat strange but I still love it!
This was a fantastic interview
We need to protect Andrew Yang dont let him or his immediate family get threats please hes the one shot humanity has for a better future
As a PA libertarian Yang is the only Democrat i have ever wanted to vote for. #YangGang #YangGangLove
As an Independent, Yang was the reason I recently registered as a "Democrat" to vote in the primary!
Ayyy PA represent
I switched party affiliation just so I can vote for Yang in the primaries
WOW. An actual solution that will benefit EVERYONE. People need to hear this guy out fully
Now, that was a powerful message from the man himself... You could not find a better candidate. He is the ONE!
Former politically-disengaged person here. Yang's Freedom Dividend will positively change the world as other nations become compelled to follow suit or risk losing their best people to the U.S.
