Intelligent, articulated answers without dehumanized the others; Andrew could unite the country because first and foremost he loves this country from the bottom of his heart, we all could sense from his answers.
He absolutely is, which is all the more surprising, because the crowd he attracts online is very belligerent in insulting or deriding other candidates, calling them sell-outs or traitors. I’m not sure how to reconcile the dissonance.
Its also up to us to spread his name and message. Speak to one person a day to plant the seed. I personally spread his name to very social people so that they can spread his name to all of their friends. This is truly a grassroots approach. #AndrewYang2020
Not a policy, policies are implemented. It's a mission statement, or an economic philosophy like interycreeper wrote. We do need an ethics minded person as president though! A philosopher king of sorts Haha
He may in fact be one of the smarter people on the planet in terms of realistic multi level thinking. Dude's a grounded normal guy, and yet he surely would be our pick to go toe to toe with an invading army of video games shooting economic trends. No contest, he is the last starfighter. Or the first.
Dude he got a 1500 or something like that on the SAT as freshman and just decided not to take it again when applying to college (also got an 178 on LSAT and 780 on GMAT, putting him in the .1% for both of those tests as well), but even as someone who crushed these tests says that they don't correlate to real life intelligence or how well you'll be able to contribute to society. So he's not just smart--a stance like that shows character.
Nice Interview, but he never gave a real answer to inflation. Saying that there was no inflation when the banks were bailed out, is an improper answer. There would not be inflation at that point, because the money did not go the people.

Venture For America created approx. 4,000 jobs. What isn't talked about is the other jobs created to support the 4,000 jobs. Also, what isn't mentioned is that the jobs are still there today and not leaving. What also isn't mentioned is that Andrew Yang went to cities that America literally forgot and left to dry. Guy's a freaking hero in those towns.
I have to say, the reporter who attacked...no, challenged Yang on every question, Josh Rogers, was very helpful. Because firstly, at least, he was very informed about all of Yang’s policies, and secondly he allowed everyone to hear that Yang has a valid and well thought-out answer to any objection!
I found each and every question he had for Yang was already strongholds for Yang, with clear concrete answers he had given many times before. I felt he was setting up Yang for slam dunks, rather than "attacking" him
Joseph Chan The one that I hadn't heard him address yet, was the one regarding his goal of creating 100,000 jobs with VFA and only achieving 3,000; and Yang absolutely hit that answer out of the park.
@@realJosephChan disagree sir. This show did a deep dive into other areas that most have not asked. For ex: the climate change plan question, the venture for America question...yet, the Freedom Dividend question about inflation and rent rates is overly discussed by every interview. I think that question came from their viewers though. Great opportunity in this one where Yang showed his poise under fire of deeper question about his policies.
This man is the recipe for success in the US. 1. Seek to understand the problem as thoroughly as you can. 2. Use data, logic, reasoning to plan potential solutions to these understood issues. 3. Fight to implement these solutions, continue to collect data to ensure these proposals are working. 4. Re-analyze all your metrics to ensure they are having the desired impact. 5. Continue to provide solutions to issues with data-backed investigation; be transparent with the public.
Why is this a new idea and not already common? We teach proper processes in school but we don't do it (or expect it) at the highest levels of government.
Not one of the other candidates, not one single one, would be able to address every single question thrown out with such directness, introspection, research, and logic! There was zero platitudes! Just honesty and straight to the point problem-solving! This is not the President we deserve... but this is the President we need!!
Wow, a candidate who has innovative ideas that are backed by facts and research and don't place party agendas above people. This guy has THE BEST chance of uniting the country and improving our broken systems. We've needed this guy in office for the past 30+ years.
But what if those facts and research data are flawed. We have no way of knowing that. Most people even scientists and economists and professional investors get it wrong on economic policies.
@@laturista1000 That's a BIG "what if". It's still best to have a leader who at least considers the research and tries to find solutions that target the cause of the problem. Especially one who doesn't place loyalty to party above the people's interests.
Well I believe the largest demographic of non-voters are probably expats and young people college-age between the ages of 18 and early 30s. I don't have the data on that but I can look that up to see who the majority of non-voters are
Please America, let's get it right this time for f sake. Andrew yang is the most qualified from all candidates both dems and Republicans . Im 40 years old and I say he's the best in my lifetime.
Andrew needs text bankers and phone bankers (people to text people in early voting states if he doesn't get higher in the polls he isn't going to be on the debate stage.) If you have any free time i reccomend helping him in that way.
This retired senior has been voting in Presidential Elections since 1972. I have no interest anymore in any candidates but Andrew Yang & Tulsi Gabbard. Every Yang video I watch further convinces me that he is the candidate we need in the White House. But also remember that we must also maintain a Democratic majority in the House and flip the Senate.
It never gets OLD listening to AY explain his policies straight FORWARD!!!! NO beating around the bush, no circumventing the question. If America doesn't elect AY as president..we're the dumbest people in the most prestigious country! And we deserve what's coming!

NHPR Thanks.for covering Andrew Yang. This Trump supporter will vote for A Yang if he won the Democratic side. Otherwise Trump still my primary supporter.
@@bryanfrye8770Exactly, the General is not the challenge of his campaign. If Yang gets the nom he's got it in the bag. You can either help him get there or watch his grassroots movement struggle and prevail without you, and jump the bandwagon in the General. I hope every Republican who likes Andrew will be able to hold their nose and register Dem or Independent and vote for him in the primary, because that is what its gonna take. Andrew Yang is being sandbagged by the Democratic establishment in the primaries and he is not a leftist. He's relying on his support from Republicans, Trump supporters, Independents and Libertarians to win the primaries; Democrats still think Warren or Biden are the best bet for America's future. Register before the primaries so you can prove them wrong and hopefully humiliate them into finally backing Yang, their best candidate by far. Alternately, if Bernie wins the nom he'll likely beat Trump, according to polls, and then you get the Federal Jobs Guarantee, which sounds like actual communism to me. And I supported Bernie last cycle.
I also registered as a democrat to vote Yang. I'd urge you to do the same, in fact every election always register as the opposing party so that we can have influence over the many outcomes. Think about it.
Disrupt your life... in a negative way (lose job) or in a positive way (get UBI, revive economy of small communities, work less hours) is up to us Americans! It's up to us to make use of AI and technology to work on making out lives better!
@@treewalker1070 Sorry, it's top secret. Competition for AI software and Big Data is fierce. The goal here is to beat other countries in AI development.
I have been politically disengaged for many years but now I see a candidate that I can stand by. His version & policies will lift and unite this country.
I'm 40 years old. I have never voted for any of our presidents through all of my adult life. I have had zero interest in politics because I felt like it really didn't matter what my vote was or what my opinion was and no one said otherwise. I let life just happen to me. Then I heard about Yang and his policies. He is extremely relatable. He is extremely clear on what is happening today and what we can do about it for our tomorrow. He makes it clear that we can do better as a country! Yang is the reason I've become engaged in politics. He is the reason I've felt happier in my life because I feel like I have more of a say in what happens and I feel like the future is brighter than it has ever been before! I feel like my vote actually matters and is important for all of us. Because of Yang, I have already voted for the first time. I've participated in local primaries in Virginia. I've seen, firsthand, that we as a community can move the world. Let's help our young people to be engaged as well. Let's help alieviate their fears and eliminate excuses for not participating in their right to vote. If I had more support and engagement with politics while I was younger, I may have participated earlier on.
This is a very informative and insightful interview that showcases Andrew Yang's ability to intelligently communicate the solutions required to move the country forward. The interviewers did their homework and came up with the most difficult questions they could. Andrew answered everything with such poise, rationality, and conviction, it's easy to imagine every other democratic candidate and especially Trump, to stumble over their words and find ways to divert when faced with this line of questioning. This has to rank as one of Andrew's best interviews to date! Yang2020.com
For sure Henry. I am not a fan of interviews where they ask Yang to explain every little detail of ALL of his plans. I do appreciate his depth of knowledge and can listen to him all day. Ex: the climate change plan inquiry. What in the world? Are they going to be measuring the levels of pollution day to day? Of course not. The highlights of his policies are comprehensive (more than most) on his website. That is more than what candidates need to reveal while running. Just my view.
I love how they actually went deeper with Yang's answers, that's not something a lot of other shows or the news does. It really brings out the nuance into his policies and how he's thought everything through.
Most other candidates would only provide a mix of pandering, virtue-signalling and non-answers to those questions. Meaning they're not fit for office. Hopefully people have had ENOUGH and want an honest and pragmatic president like Yang.
Some tough questions. I am fine with it as long as they scrutinize the other candidates the same way. I hope the audience can see how different they answer the same type of questions.
Also a stark contrast to the other candidates running on 20th century ideas. People think UBI is early, but if it’s like climate change, no action will be taken until too late.
01:02 - Role of the government besides UBI; 01:56 - Andrew's vision; 05:00 - How have we gotten to this point; 06:58 - UBI from 18 to death, on top of Social Security; 07:25 - How does FD interact with the welfare benefits; 08:35 - Inflation; 10:53 - Why give the FD to the rich; 10:20 - Deficit; 13:44 - Other ways to address automation besides UBI; 15:50 - Political Reform, super pacs; 20:19 - Climate Change; 27:04 - "Can you get things done?"; 33:20 - Foreign Policy; 40:23 - Opioids; 45:48 - Guns; 47:25 - Immigration; 51:21 - Something people don't know about Andrew; 53:18 - Effects of automation if we do nothing; 54:55 - Restoring civility.
He killed the interview. He has the answer to every question that interviewer try on him like inflation, where money come from, education, foreign, technology etc..... he is going shock the world in 2020 like president Trump but in a good way 👍👍👍 Yang2020.com
Josh Rogers was trying so hard to ask tricky gotcha questions but Yang got great answers. You can tell by the body language, Josh never laugh or smile once !!!!! What do you call that type of person ?? I think Yang turned him around at the end, Josh did smile and laugh once :)
there's a big difference between asking a questing because you want to know, and the way this guy asks, not caring at all about the answer, just looking for a gotcha moment.

I just did my first pass listening to this, I know I'll be making more passes later in the evening. I just hope Americans realise how fortunate they are to have someone like Yang appear and vote for him. He could be doing a lot of other things to serve his own immediate self interest than run for POTUS.
Indeed! And there are lots more great interviews with AY on TH-cam. Check out others too. Then send a link to this or another to your friends, tell them to spend just one hour of their life listening. It is up to US to spread the word!
Simply by looking at the TH-cam comments section of his interview videos, it's not difficult to figure out why many people think he has the best chance of uniting the country! Do you know how hard it is to unite the TH-cam comments sections?
His answers to a few questions highlight how incredibly brilliant this person is. Can not be understated, he is a genius in his field of specialization, which appears to be humanitarian politics.
Yang is clearly the best choice but i have one fear. Are the majority of Americans smart enough to go beyond the talking points, will they do their own research on the topics across multiple news sources, will they put their/our future before their team/party, will they have enough courage to accept the needed systemic changes to the status quo? I hope so.
maybe not the majority but all we have to do is get enough of us to show the sheep which way the wind is blowing and the rest will get right on board the Yang Yacht for 2020, next stop: the White House. Andrew has given us a great gift with such a meme worthy campaign that will allow us to make this a grand experiment in social marketing.
That is why AY is working so hard in the early states. The wave will crash down on MSM. These interviews and rallies are uploaded almost every day at the local level where MSM has little control over. If the wave crashes down on MSM and they want to continue their agenda, it’s too late and power is restored to the local level media TRICKLE UP BABY! AY had done the hw, imagined the possible outcomes like Dr. Strange with the time stone and found the vision he was looking for #securethebag #yangmediablackout
Ive lived in quite a few different places across America, yes cultural shock and the social majority opinions change depending on where you are. BUT ive found once you get someone on a 1on1, we're all reasonable and we can all find solid ground to agree on.
He answered more questions directly in this interview than any other candidate during their entire campaign. No gas lighting every question like everyone else, he's got my vote!
I believe they have to ask him some of his basic policies. I am sure they know the answers, but they are asking for the sake of their listeners who might be listening to Andrew for the first time. That is how they get their listeners to be engaged to the line of questioning.
Really great interview NHPR! Some of the questions were very critical of things Yang doesn’t always go very in depth on and I, as a die hard member of the Yang Gang, appreciate our candidate getting the opportunity to be tested on some of his solutions and ideas. I hope everybody finds him as genuine and truly committed to helping the people as I do. #Yang2020 !
I love listening to Yang participate in long form conversation. He's not good at playing 5 min politician talk, our problems require more in depth discussion. A+
All the other candidates: “We need REAL solutions!” Andrew Yang: dissects the problem and provides actual, sensible “real solutions”! #Yang2020 #HumanityFirst Let’s move Forward!
I simply don't understand any American that doesn't get excited about Andrew Yang. His progressive thinking is so promising for all Americans. It's time that all Americans finally get an immediate and positive impact on their daily lives from our President, and Andrew Yang seems to be the one that can do that. I am more than ready to experience the trickle up economy, Lord knows I surely haven't experienced any good from the trickle down economy that has been pushed on Americans for the last 35+ years. It's time to stop thinking the super rich is going to help us (working class) if they (the super rich) receive the benefits first. Sincerely Single Father
Hey man, the irony is that many Bernie supporters call Yang's policies "regressive". Doesn't that piss you off? Time to go out there, debate and persuade your fellow Americans to vote for Yang.
When people hear his long form interviews they DO get excited about him. Spread the word! Send a link to this or another interview to your friends and say "Just listen......"
I love this interview! I’ve been following him for months now, and I’m so impressed how his answers to the same questions keep evolving! Imagine how much he would evolve with 4-8 years in the White House...
I love Yang's campaign so much. I've never been so politically engaged in my life, and now I've actually donated to a political campaign for the first time ever. Big thanks to NPHR for giving Andrew a fair and solid interview!
Great questions.. awesome answers. Every second I spent watching this interview was all worth it. The level of respect the interviewers and the audience gave Yang is really admirable. It underscores the growing acceptance not only of Yang's candidacy as something that is becoming more viable by the day but of the truth and viability of the ideas and policies he is putting forward.
But there are only 1% of our population is super rich. We will save a lot of ADMIN cost making it simple. 99% of us will be benefited from the $1000 ubi,

Thank you Andrew Yang for including those over 65 in your Liberty dividend. It would transform the lives of persons in the final years of their lives both for the elderly and their caregivers. Forward with Andrew Yang for the betterment of all Americans.
Great interview. Many great questions and some are pretty tough. Andrew Yang answered them all very well because he knows his stuff. No BS, just facts and data driven solutions
Listened in and I think it was one of his strongest interviews yet. But he needs to provide more clarity on VAT and MENTION HOW IT TAXES BUSINESS TO BUSINESS TRANSACTIONS! A "Tiny Slice" does NOT click with most people as a funding mechanism
YES. I've heard him explain this only once. The way I explain it is, the VAT takes it's slice every time money changes hands. That means that when businesses pay for ads on, say, facebook, facebook pays a tax on that income immediately, rather than squirrelling it away until tax time when ~abracadabra, POOF~ it disappears
I think this is key. VAT tax from my experience is viewed as a net negative because people believe it only increases the costs they pay. It will increase costs on products, but not to the extent that the tax captures money from business transactions. It is one of the only ways I'm aware of to capture money from businesses that have other means to squirrel away revenues outside of a tax jurisdiction. While businesses may pass through some of the costs of the tax, they cannot levy all of it on the the consumer because they will not be able to compete with other companies that simply absorb the cost and take a decrease to the amount of income they receive. Overall it allows an increase of tax revenue and it can be targeted and timely.
@@TheBrynoch Yep, the tax burden depends on the "elasticity of demand" as economists say. Goods with inelastic demand (i.e. when demand doesn't decrease much because of price hikes) like consumer staples (diapers, feminine hygiene products, etc.) are most likely to be the victim of price gauging by businesses - but Yang has said he will exempt those goods from the VAT, which is great.
This is a great video, third party analysis of the distribution of the Freedom Dividend. It's pitched to the impacts on the poor, but looks at the distribution across the economic spectrum. th-cam.com/video/j4ilOmTCLfI/w-d-xo.html
“The big picture is we have to actually reframe what our economic measurements are directing our energies towards... If we actually change the measuring sticks of our economy to be our life expectancy.. our mental health and freedom from substance abuse.. clean air and clean water.. how our kids are doing.. then you end up with a whole set of jobs and opportunities for people that are pushing us in these directions and solving the real problems of our time.” This is revolutionary!!! Exactly the direction we NEED to go in for the 21st century. Yang has my vote
It's finally clear to me how inflation won't happen. When you don't have the financial flexibility to move to a different area, you kinda just have to go with what you've got. When you have a freedom dividend of $1000 a month, you actually COULD afford taking the time off to move somewhere you want for a job you'd prefer. Financial flexibility creates opportunity. Not having this flexibility is what has kept the lower class stay low, and provides so much more opportunity for the middle to high classes. Let's get this Freedom Income and get back in the game America!! #YangGang
Inflation will also not happen since the rich would lose 10% of their spending power, while some of the poorest americans would have an increase of 80% of more spending power. A person making $7.25/hr would make around $15k a year working full-time. With the freedom dividend, their spending power just went up by 80%, since they now would have $27K. Greedy landlords might try to take advantage of people by raising the rent, but we could pass things like rent control to limit the abuse from greedy landlords, and this is coming from a landlord himself.
I would love to hear contrasting answers to these questions from other Democratic presidential candidates and see how they would fare. It seems that the media is driving real tough line of questioning to Mr. Yang - only to be disappointed because he comes up with brilliant rebuttals supported with data & facts!
I don't think he is trying to bring him down, I think he is just being honestly critical and trying to satisfy his own curiosity. I can see him nod multiple times to Yang's answers when the camera cover the whole stage.

NO HE IS NOT A ONE POLICY CANDIDATE. HE HAS OVER 150 POLICIES
@t
more policies than any of the other candidates COMBINED!
Josh is like “shit I can’t stump him.” Hahah
Yep, I can sense that he prepared with some negative data he can stump on Yang, even deep researching Venture of America.
He probably hinks Yang is too good to be true. :D
Josh is an ASSHOLE-period
@@RockerWannaB The way he phrased all of his questions it's pretty clear he wanted to take Yang down.
Venture For America created approx. 4,000 jobs. What isn't talked about is the other jobs created to support the 4,000 jobs. Also, what isn't mentioned is that the jobs are still there today and not leaving. What also isn't mentioned is that Andrew Yang went to cities that America literally forgot and left to dry. Guy's a freaking hero in those towns.
I have to say, the reporter who attacked...no, challenged Yang on every question, Josh Rogers, was very helpful. Because firstly, at least, he was very informed about all of Yang’s policies, and secondly he allowed everyone to hear that Yang has a valid and well thought-out answer to any objection!
Hard, but well researched questions. Then give the time to answer, no interruptions or talking over him. MSM should take notes.
I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR TRUMP ANSWERS THIS QUESTIONS LOL
I found each and every question he had for Yang was already strongholds for Yang, with clear concrete answers he had given many times before. I felt he was setting up Yang for slam dunks, rather than "attacking" him
Joseph Chan The one that I hadn't heard him address yet, was the one regarding his goal of creating 100,000 jobs with VFA and only achieving 3,000; and Yang absolutely hit that answer out of the park.
@@realJosephChan disagree sir. This show did a deep dive into other areas that most have not asked. For ex: the climate change plan question, the venture for America question...yet, the Freedom Dividend question about inflation and rent rates is overly discussed by every interview. I think that question came from their viewers though. Great opportunity in this one where Yang showed his poise under fire of deeper question about his policies.
This man is the recipe for success in the US.
1. Seek to understand the problem as thoroughly as you can.
2. Use data, logic, reasoning to plan potential solutions to these understood issues.
3. Fight to implement these solutions, continue to collect data to ensure these proposals are working.
4. Re-analyze all your metrics to ensure they are having the desired impact.
5. Continue to provide solutions to issues with data-backed investigation; be transparent with the public.
Great points!
Why is this a new idea and not already common? We teach proper processes in school but we don't do it (or expect it) at the highest levels of government.
@@johnnyla Because it is in the politicians interest to say that things are going well when they are in fact the opposite.
He’s also the recipe of pulling in new voters!! Isn’t that the goal lol
Not one of the other candidates, not one single one, would be able to address every single question thrown out with such directness, introspection, research, and logic! There was zero platitudes! Just honesty and straight to the point problem-solving!
This is not the President we deserve... but this is the President we need!!
no dumbass stories about how they grew up in a small town and blah blah blah
@@jammasterlee or Warren jabbering on about toasters
100% agree. Yang confirmed his intellectual superiority once again.
Wow, a candidate who has innovative ideas that are backed by facts and research and don't place party agendas above people. This guy has THE BEST chance of uniting the country and improving our broken systems. We've needed this guy in office for the past 30+ years.
If you listen to his stump speech, Trump literally HAD to happen in order for you to get Yang. The world works in mysterious ways
But what if those facts and research data are flawed. We have no way of knowing that. Most people even scientists and economists and professional investors get it wrong on economic policies.
@@laturista1000 That's a BIG "what if". It's still best to have a leader who at least considers the research and tries to find solutions that target the cause of the problem. Especially one who doesn't place loyalty to party above the people's interests.
@@kelliallen1072 you are absolutely correct
Well I believe the largest demographic of non-voters are probably expats and young people college-age between the ages of 18 and early 30s. I don't have the data on that but I can look that up to see who the majority of non-voters are
wow. i'm sold for this man
Careful, Yang videos are addictive.
Gimme that cash money 😈💰
Agreed
He's the real deal. More people just need to be exposed to him
Please America, let's get it right this time for f sake. Andrew yang is the most qualified from all candidates both dems and Republicans . Im 40 years old and I say he's the best in my lifetime.
He is the best candidate in our lifetime. If he becomes president, game changer for the next 100 years for the US.
@@robertlemieux7187 not just the US, it'll certainly impact the world in a positive and profound way.
Andrew needs text bankers and phone bankers (people to text people in early voting states if he doesn't get higher in the polls he isn't going to be on the debate stage.) If you have any free time i reccomend helping him in that way.
This retired senior has been voting in Presidential Elections since 1972. I have no interest anymore in any candidates but Andrew Yang & Tulsi Gabbard. Every Yang video I watch further convinces me that he is the candidate we need in the White House. But also remember that we must also maintain a Democratic majority in the House and flip the Senate.
Who on earth is this guy and wy havent I heard of him. Why is he not EVERYWHERE
Spread the word, please. 😁
Yep, as you just comprehended, the world needs him, not just America.
Welcome.
welcome to the Yang Gang buddy
Was exactly my response when I first watched a long interview with him.
lol that guy tried to throw many wrenches into AY game....AY wasnt having nothing of that.
OF COURSE HE IS TRUMP SUPPORTERS LOLZ
AY breaking ankles with his crossovers son!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@jammasterlee Dunking the ball saying 'Get off of me!' lol
This interview is like the new Joe Rogan interview. Classic Yang in perfect form.
Classic Yang 😂✊
This isn't even his final form.
Tough questions about his policies but Yang was able to answer them truthfully & gracefully. Honest Andrew.
Nice! maybe he doesn't wear a tie because he's got no ties to big money and corruption, its symbolism.
It never gets OLD listening to AY explain his policies straight FORWARD!!!! NO beating around the bush, no circumventing the question. If America doesn't elect AY as president..we're the dumbest people in the most prestigious country! And we deserve what's coming!
Some of us are dumb enough to elect an idiot that's ruining the country - so I hope we smart up and put AY into office as our next president!
keep in mind there are probably some powerful people who don't want things to change..
Why do most politicians do counter intuitive or stupid things? Think you
can do a better job? Rules for Rulers th-cam.com/video/rStL7niR7gs/w-d-xo.html
The cool thing about Andrew Yang is that his KEY's are the people, the
same way his democracy dollars will fix corruption! Yang2020!
I’m not even an American citizen but damn this guy is good.
Dittossssss.....well said!!!!
NHPR Thanks.for covering Andrew Yang. This Trump supporter will vote for A Yang if he won the Democratic side. Otherwise Trump still my primary supporter.
register as a democrat and vote for him in the primary. you can also register again as a republican after the election.
@@vincestithit381 Might not have to register back if Yang gets the Demo Nomination.
@@bryanfrye8770Exactly, the General is not the challenge of his campaign. If Yang gets the nom he's got it in the bag. You can either help him get there or watch his grassroots movement struggle and prevail without you, and jump the bandwagon in the General. I hope every Republican who likes Andrew will be able to hold their nose and register Dem or Independent and vote for him in the primary, because that is what its gonna take. Andrew Yang is being sandbagged by the Democratic establishment in the primaries and he is not a leftist. He's relying on his support from Republicans, Trump supporters, Independents and Libertarians to win the primaries; Democrats still think Warren or Biden are the best bet for America's future. Register before the primaries so you can prove them wrong and hopefully humiliate them into finally backing Yang, their best candidate by far.
Alternately, if Bernie wins the nom he'll likely beat Trump, according to polls, and then you get the Federal Jobs Guarantee, which sounds like actual communism to me. And I supported Bernie last cycle.
I also registered as a democrat to vote Yang. I'd urge you to do the same, in fact every election always register as the opposing party so that we can have influence over the many outcomes. Think about it.
ry phon Same here!
New Hamshirians, please, please vote Yang so we all can have a bright future. The work I am doing here in Silicon Valley is destined to disrupt lives.
Tell us more about what you are doing?
Disrupt your life... in a negative way (lose job) or in a positive way (get UBI, revive economy of small communities, work less hours) is up to us Americans! It's up to us to make use of AI and technology to work on making out lives better!
@@treewalker1070 Sorry, it's top secret. Competition for AI software and Big Data is fierce. The goal here is to beat other countries in AI development.
I have been politically disengaged for many years but now I see a candidate that I can stand by. His version & policies will lift and unite this country.
I have never been politically engaged. I always did what so many do, wait until the general election and vote for who i dislike the least.
Pls register to vote 🗳. Lets take actions and get Yang message everywhere. Tell ur friends and family. #Yang2020 #MATH
I'm 40 years old. I have never voted for any of our presidents through all of my adult life. I have had zero interest in politics because I felt like it really didn't matter what my vote was or what my opinion was and no one said otherwise. I let life just happen to me. Then I heard about Yang and his policies. He is extremely relatable. He is extremely clear on what is happening today and what we can do about it for our tomorrow. He makes it clear that we can do better as a country!
Yang is the reason I've become engaged in politics. He is the reason I've felt happier in my life because I feel like I have more of a say in what happens and I feel like the future is brighter than it has ever been before! I feel like my vote actually matters and is important for all of us.
Because of Yang, I have already voted for the first time. I've participated in local primaries in Virginia. I've seen, firsthand, that we as a community can move the world.
Let's help our young people to be engaged as well. Let's help alieviate their fears and eliminate excuses for not participating in their right to vote. If I had more support and engagement with politics while I was younger, I may have participated earlier on.
This is a very informative and insightful interview that showcases Andrew Yang's ability to intelligently communicate the solutions required to move the country forward. The interviewers did their homework and came up with the most difficult questions they could. Andrew answered everything with such poise, rationality, and conviction, it's easy to imagine every other democratic candidate and especially Trump, to stumble over their words and find ways to divert when faced with this line of questioning. This has to rank as one of Andrew's best interviews to date!
Yang2020.com
For sure Henry. I am not a fan of interviews where they ask Yang to explain every little detail of ALL of his plans. I do appreciate his depth of knowledge and can listen to him all day. Ex: the climate change plan inquiry. What in the world? Are they going to be measuring the levels of pollution day to day? Of course not. The highlights of his policies are comprehensive (more than most) on his website. That is more than what candidates need to reveal while running. Just my view.
I love how they actually went deeper with Yang's answers, that's not something a lot of other shows or the news does. It really brings out the nuance into his policies and how he's thought everything through.
Most other candidates would only provide a mix of pandering, virtue-signalling and non-answers to those questions. Meaning they're not fit for office. Hopefully people have had ENOUGH and want an honest and pragmatic president like Yang.
i totally agree, this is one of the best i've seen from him. so good
I agree so so much.
I love it when interviewers try to “Trump” Andrew Yang. Other candidates will not hold up against the same type of scrutiny. #Yang2020 #HumanityFirst
Some tough questions. I am fine with it as long as they scrutinize the other candidates the same way. I hope the audience can see how different they answer the same type of questions.
@Jeffrey Mo: good point. I hope some youtubers can compile clips of each media ask questions to different candidates.
@@RockerWannaB Thats a great idea!
@@RockerWannaB Fantastic idea, especially if they ask the same questions to the other candidates.
@Ben Louis Lol, yeah the Butteigin Steve guy copies Andrew Yang word for word.
It’s like he’s from the 21st century or something...
Watch the Ted Talk he did in 2012! At the end, his last line is "I think I'm ahead of my time.. And that's ok."
Also a stark contrast to the other candidates running on 20th century ideas. People think UBI is early, but if it’s like climate change, no action will be taken until too late.
yo his response on foreign policy and drone threats had me like wooooah...
Policymakers are too out of touch these days fr
Hmm.. we’re in the 21st century but unfortunately our politicians got stuck in the 20th.
First question is great. That shows how human Yang is
Yang needs to be the next president. He actually has real answers that would help fellow Americans live a better life.
I haven't been this excited about a candidate since Obama. Yang is actually talking about the future and where the country needs to go.

Josh Rogers was trying so hard to ask tricky gotcha questions but Yang got great answers.
You can tell by the body language, Josh never laugh or smile once !!!!! What do you call that type of person ??

I just did my first pass listening to this, I know I'll be making more passes later in the evening. I just hope Americans realise how fortunate they are to have someone like Yang appear and vote for him.

Indeed! And there are lots more great interviews with AY on TH-cam. Check out others too. Then send a link to this or another to your friends, tell them to spend just one hour of their life listening. It is up to US to spread the word!
Simply by looking at the TH-cam comments section of his interview videos, it's not difficult to figure out why many people think he has the best chance of uniting the country! Do you know how hard it is to unite the TH-cam comments sections?
We were brainwashed to think economic value equals human value. The fact that he speaks these words is why I support him.
sometimes i find myself thinking, 'Andrew Yang is too smart to be President"
Haha, do you really want a dumb President (again) to screw up this country?
MrHistoryFan no I don’t want Warren to be president
well... he did say he's running for prez not cuz he's crazy but cuz there are problems no one else is addressing.
And that is why he should be POTUS!!!
i agree with u bro
Holy cow, this guy is smart! I think I’m a supporter.
His answers to a few questions highlight how incredibly brilliant this person is. Can not be understated, he is a genius in his field of specialization, which appears to be humanitarian politics.
Thank you for interviewing Mr Yang. Really opened my eyes!
Appreciate the tough questions and it was great to hear Andrew Yang on foreign policies and civility. This feels like democracy.
I can't see anyone in their right mind would not choosing this man!!!
wow... which other candidate directly answers every directly to every question thrown at them with a concise answer???
Gilly Babi right?
also Bernie. But I have to say, the range and quality of Yang's answers is quite amazing.
They both talk in detail, but they don't waste words.
This was so good, Andrew nailed it 💯
Yang is clearly the best choice but i have one fear. Are the majority of Americans smart enough to go beyond the talking points, will they do their own research on the topics across multiple news sources, will they put their/our future before their team/party, will they have enough courage to accept the needed systemic changes to the status quo? I hope so.
maybe not the majority but all we have to do is get enough of us to show the sheep which way the wind is blowing and the rest will get right on board the Yang Yacht for 2020, next stop: the White House. Andrew has given us a great gift with such a meme worthy campaign that will allow us to make this a grand experiment in social marketing.
That is why AY is working so hard in the early states. The wave will crash down on MSM. These interviews and rallies are uploaded almost every day at the local level where MSM has little control over. If the wave crashes down on MSM and they want to continue their agenda, it’s too late and power is restored to the local level media TRICKLE UP BABY! AY had done the hw, imagined the possible outcomes like Dr. Strange with the time stone and found the vision he was looking for #securethebag #yangmediablackout
Nope, the majority won't research, that's why we donate so the Yang gang can slam those people with ads
Ive lived in quite a few different places across America, yes cultural shock and the social majority opinions change depending on where you are. BUT ive found once you get someone on a 1on1, we're all reasonable and we can all find solid ground to agree on.
OF COURSE NOT ESPECIALLY BRAINWASHED TRUMP SUPPORTERS
My daily dose of Yang talk
He answered more questions directly in this interview than any other candidate during their entire campaign. No gas lighting every question like everyone else, he's got my vote!
The one true candidate. the best choice. excited to support this campaign and a real future that we can be proud of. #yanggang
It always amuses me how contradictory the criticisms of "its too expensive" and "its not even enough to live on" are
Harry Potter is a 25 billion dollar IP that was created on welfare, with the Freedom Dividend a lot more people would be FREE to create! : )
I believe they have to ask him some of his basic policies. I am sure they know the answers, but they are asking for the sake of their listeners who might be listening to Andrew for the first time. That is how they get their listeners to be engaged to the line of questioning.

I simply don't understand any American that doesn't get excited about Andrew Yang. His progressive thinking is so promising for all Americans. It's time that all Americans finally get an immediate and positive impact on their daily lives from our President, and Andrew Yang seems to be the one that can do that. I am more than ready to experience the trickle up economy, Lord knows I surely haven't experienced any good from the trickle down economy that has been pushed on Americans for the last 35+ years. It's time to stop thinking the super rich is going to help us (working class) if they (the super rich) receive the benefits first. Sincerely Single Father
Hey man, the irony is that many Bernie supporters call Yang's policies "regressive". Doesn't that piss you off? Time to go out there, debate and persuade your fellow Americans to vote for Yang.
When people hear his long form interviews they DO get excited about him. Spread the word! Send a link to this or another interview to your friends and say "Just listen......"
I love this interview! I’ve been following him for months now, and I’m so impressed how his answers to the same questions keep evolving! Imagine how much he would evolve with 4-8 years in the White House...

I love Yang's campaign so much. I've never been so politically engaged in my life, and now I've actually donated to a political campaign for the first time ever. Big thanks to NPHR for giving Andrew a fair and solid interview!
Hey , great show guys , Thank you for covering Andrew Yang .
Great questions.. awesome answers. Every second I spent watching this interview was all worth it.
The level of respect the interviewers and the audience gave Yang is really admirable. It underscores the growing acceptance not only of Yang's candidacy as something that is becoming more viable by the day but of the truth and viability of the ideas and policies he is putting forward.
This is possibly one of the top 3 interviews of Andrew Yang (the others being the Joe Rogan podcast, Des Moines Register).

But there are only 1% of our population is super rich. We will save a lot of ADMIN cost making it simple. 99% of us will be benefited from the $1000 ubi,

Thank you for the great interview. love from the #yanggang
Listened in and I think it was one of his strongest interviews yet. But he needs to provide more clarity on VAT and MENTION HOW IT TAXES BUSINESS TO BUSINESS TRANSACTIONS! A "Tiny Slice" does NOT click with most people as a funding mechanism
true!
YES. I've heard him explain this only once. The way I explain it is, the VAT takes it's slice every time money changes hands. That means that when businesses pay for ads on, say, facebook, facebook pays a tax on that income immediately, rather than squirrelling it away until tax time when ~abracadabra, POOF~ it disappears
I think this is key. VAT tax from my experience is viewed as a net negative because people believe it only increases the costs they pay. It will increase costs on products, but not to the extent that the tax captures money from business transactions. It is one of the only ways I'm aware of to capture money from businesses that have other means to squirrel away revenues outside of a tax jurisdiction. While businesses may pass through some of the costs of the tax, they cannot levy all of it on the the consumer because they will not be able to compete with other companies that simply absorb the cost and take a decrease to the amount of income they receive. Overall it allows an increase of tax revenue and it can be targeted and timely.
@@TheBrynoch Yep, the tax burden depends on the "elasticity of demand" as economists say. Goods with inelastic demand (i.e. when demand doesn't decrease much because of price hikes) like consumer staples (diapers, feminine hygiene products, etc.) are most likely to be the victim of price gauging by businesses - but Yang has said he will exempt those goods from the VAT, which is great.
This is a great video, third party analysis of the distribution of the Freedom Dividend. It's pitched to the impacts on the poor, but looks at the distribution across the economic spectrum.
th-cam.com/video/j4ilOmTCLfI/w-d-xo.html
Love his candor.
wow this was a really great and insightful interview. An amazing public service. Hats off to nhpr & Laura/Josh.
You can tell Mr. Yang has thought deeply on the existential issues, that are facing our nation & world.
He would make a great POTUS
Once in a lifetime candidate America, do the right thing, vote for this man.
“The big picture is we have to actually reframe what our economic measurements are directing our energies towards...
If we actually change the measuring sticks of our economy to be our life expectancy.. our mental health and freedom from substance abuse.. clean air and clean water.. how our kids are doing.. then you end up with a whole set of jobs and opportunities for people that are pushing us in these directions and solving the real problems of our time.”
This is revolutionary!!! Exactly the direction we NEED to go in for the 21st century. Yang has my vote
He has a great NPR voice.
It's finally clear to me how inflation won't happen.
When you don't have the financial flexibility to move to a different area, you kinda just have to go with what you've got.
When you have a freedom dividend of $1000 a month, you actually COULD afford taking the time off to move somewhere you want for a job you'd prefer.
Financial flexibility creates opportunity. Not having this flexibility is what has kept the lower class stay low, and provides so much more opportunity for the middle to high classes.
Let's get this Freedom Income and get back in the game America!!
#YangGang
Inflation will also not happen since the rich would lose 10% of their spending power, while some of the poorest americans would have an increase of 80% of more spending power. A person making $7.25/hr would make around $15k a year working full-time. With the freedom dividend, their spending power just went up by 80%, since they now would have $27K.
Greedy landlords might try to take advantage of people by raising the rent, but we could pass things like rent control to limit the abuse from greedy landlords, and this is coming from a landlord himself.
#yanggang - humanity first!
great job Mr. President
Again, Yang kills it. We need him more than ever
I would love to hear contrasting answers to these questions from other Democratic presidential candidates and see how they would fare.
