I’m an ex con and since I found Michael franzese and started listening and taking note of his words and his wisdom I am back on the right path I owe him a lot and want to thank him personally
This... is one really good aspect of all this.
The fact that once in a while, within the multitude of comments from drooling wannabe fans,
someone who has been caught up in the sh... is able to find their way out just from seeing others who've managed to do it.
The toughest part of jumping into sh... is climbing back out.
... and your mouth is open the entire time too...
Keep up the good work not easy to do what you are doing
Stay on the righteous path my friend!!
Listen to the end result!!
Wisdom? The man is a moron.
Which videos do you recommend?
I cant believe im watching the mafia and hells angels talk about modern politics this is a crazy time to live in.
And I honestly trust their opinions on things in regards to it lol.
They've been through and dealt with all the same shit
I guess you are a kid?
Same.
Ya especially considering there is a full blown Hells Angels vs Rizzuto (mafia) war going for the control of Quebec
Really......feds are the LARGEST ORGANIZED CRIME outfit in the world.....who better than them😂😂
My daughter was in children’s hospital in Dallas tx and the Angels came in and seen the kids and brought toys. It was amazing and I shook their hands and man the kids need that. I would thank them guys again.
The Hells Angels and several other Motorcycle Clubs are involved in Toys for Tots and Coats for kids every year. They raise millions of dollars and tons of toys and coats.
most motorcycle gangs run meth for the chinese. They also help distribute fentanyl, which has killed 5 people in my neighborhood of about 100.
I bet local politicians have just as much of a hand in that too.
At the end of the day they are still criminals.
@@Girlscouts81 so are tons of politicians and business owners that we respect
This happened in the 60's. I was young and driving an old beater late one night and my car died but had enough momentum to coast into a gas station. I noticed a guy on a motorcycled at the pump in front of me...but I did not take notice of what he was wearing. Back then they had gas station attendants who would service your car on the spot....and my car was smoking indicating it needed attention. The station attendant was in the station (I could see him) but did NOT come out. I figured he was busy with something and would come out as soon as he was through and I had no choice but to wait since my car would not start.
After a while, I noticed that the jacket on the man on the motorcycles said "Hell's Angels." Then I realized that was why the attendant did not come out.
The Hell's Angels guy got off his bike and came back to my car and tapped on my window. I rolled it down a crack. He said, "I see your having trouble with your car."
I said "Yes, it just died."
He told me to wait until it cooled down and he would get it started. I did what he said. He pushed my car to the side and waited until the car cooled down. Then he filled the radiator, suggested that I get anti-freeze for it, and told me to try to start it. The car turned over and began to chug again. I thanked him profusely and offered to pay him. He smiled and refused the money and got me on my way.
I know the Hell's Angels are tough guys...but they have their moments and I was glad when one of them was around!
Humanity at its finest...no matter What you look like❤
Hello angels are people.Some good,some bad we have all kinds of "people" like that though.Hells angels just don't disown you cause you are a criminal.m
They are people just like anyone else and ya they are involved in some dirty shit but if you're not one of their known enemies you're not a threat and they're gonna show you respect
I've found them kind and reasonable to deal with, just don't screw around and do dumb stuff and you won't have an issue.
I worked for a big MC club and also a high level 'made man' in both their legal businesses.
Never once did i get stiffed on pay, or treated 'less then family'. Ive worked for govt too....biggest crooks around
Whether you like George Christie or not, he is a personable guy, and always gives a great interview. This is one of the few times I remember a guest asking so many questions to the interviewer, which made it a genuine conversation, in which both guys displayed genuine interest in the other's experiences. Dynamite show.
I was a teenager when he was the president of the Ventura chapter, I lived in the neighborhood and they were always very nice to me and the other kids that were in the neighborhood. You felt safe in that neighborhood that's for sure.
As a truck driver I've run across almost every MC I can think of at one time or another over the road. Never had a problem with any of them. Can't say the same thing about highway patrol.
Got that right. Local police never hassle me when im in my old musclecar. CHP...
Havent been on the fwy in years.
MC?
@@gabrielramos3385Motorcycle Club
@@gabrielramos3385 Motorcycle club
I had two MC members in trade school the same I was in there for diesel technician classes. Both were some of the most chillest guys I ever met, and the older bald guy especially was all about honor and respect
What does that say when a mafia and hells angel boss, sit together and critique the criminality of government. Surely this is food for thought.
Tells you that you're being taken for a nice ride.
Without even a motorcycle
Eat crow
Marsha Klein was also in the Hells Angels but she thrown out, lewd behaviour
Not for a nanosecond.
@@johngilmore697go cry more hahhaha you’re fragile awww 😢😢😢😢😢
A truly respectful conversation between two well spoken gentlemen who come from a day where things like honor and respect mattered. A+ interview!
"honor and respect"???? Well thats setting the bar pretty low for sure.
Still matters to me. No respect, 1 response. 1%
Yeah- "honor and respect" to these guys is something completely different from the honor and respect a hard working family man has and deserves. Humility is not something they are familiar with.
“Honor and respect” is a LCN thing, not amongst MC clubs.
A day when honor respect and exploiting the most vulnerable mattered and enriched them
This is an amazing conversation. To watch a former Mafia Boss and Head of the Hells Angels sit down and have a conversation of their days in their organizations is just priceless.
Micheal wasn’t a boss. Member, yes.
@@honestsupplementsreviews2984He still had power and a lot guys under his command so 🤷🏻♂️
Oh shut up he was a capo of his own crew of guys
@@alexmcarthur5297 Wow, take it easy man. Anyone can make a mistake :-)
Jeez biting someone's head off so quick. I feel sorry for your family. You must be tough to live around@@alexmcarthur5297
I appreciate you having these conversations publicly. It brings perspective to the world and it is much needed.
This is a amazing conversation between two friends. It’s refreshing to watch a honest conversation. Thanks for allowing us into your lives. 👏🇨🇦
First I need to explain I post on my husband Frank's TH-cam acct! I don't know George, but was friends on Facebook with Sonny Barger and he did something that really touched my heart! Hubby and I don't have kids we rescue stray and abused animals and when one of our dogs crossed The Rainbow Bridge we received the kindest message from Mr. Barger and his wife! Gods speed to you both! Patricia Gambino Harrington
This was hands down one of the most fascinating and interesting sit-downs I've ever watched on TH-cam and I can not wait to watch the second part! Thanks Michael.
Don't ask him about his daughter. He believes in that weirdo gender crap 🙄
George is 100% stand up and has the greatest stories. Can't wait for part 2!
What a moron
I agree, George tells great stories. Can you imagine what he knows, we don't.
It's too bad that you and Sonny Barger weren't the best of friends, I met Sonny outside of Fresno early '70's. I hitch hiked to California from Gary back then. He and some other Angels made me feel at home partying with them.
Great interview. Brings back memories of when Mr. Christie was released from TI. The officers were giving him a hard time bringing his personal belongings out and I was given a call and asked some questions about what he was capable of. He is a class act and although we never met face to face, I was happy to help out in a small way smoothing things out.
These cross-lives interviews are probably the best. Finding out how much RESPECT is actually throughout all the groups is amazing. We've been told to be civil,.yet paying taxes is bs......
This was a great conversation and I can't wait for Part 2. It is so interesting to see the two organizations side by side! Thanks for this one Michael.
Maybe they can reach out to montreal and stop the violence ?
I've been familiar with Mr George for many yrs - My grandmother operated a public boarding stable for over 30 yrs - Every demographic one could imagine including Bikers - I remember a man and his wife who we all had come to love - they were at the farm 3-4 days a week for 5or 6 years - they sadly were in a fatal bike wreck , not far from the farm - I was little - but I loved Gene - We later found out he was - as we knew - in a club - a big club - At the funeral we found out he was the National President - This was in the early 1970s - These people loved my grandparents - Mamaw would not sell their horses by or let any of his buddies have them - evidently they had an agreement - Mamaw said " I did what he wanted me to do "
She found a home in Lexington for those 3 horses and I have no doubt they lived well -
🌹🐴🌹
Loved your talk with hells angels
is Montreal yet another global be-careful location … and everybody else knows besides me?
wanted him to ask if you can wear a hells angels shirt or hat if your not a member? I ordered some nice shirts but hesitant on wearing them at the local bar. Any ideas
It's still mental to me that an ex mafia boss has a you tube channel but I'll be buggered if it's not one of the most interesting channels on here. Michael, you're a legend for the right reasons 😊 (sorry NOT boss, apparently this is very important. Can't say it affects my life but ppl are really cranky about it)
He was a captain, not a boss. Ok, street boss. But in the end he was a captain. His dad was an underboss. Wasn't the boss, he was the underboss. Sorry for being word picky but it is true.
He was a captain not even close to being a boss or underboss
Boss?..Nah, he wasn't. His adoptive father (Sonny) is the real gangster & he gave Michael everything, including gas scam (which Sonny & Russian mob originally started). Michael just gets the credit bc he's only one who ratted & who told media about the scam
God bless freedom of speech. Furthermore, you hear more interesting and authentic things on this channel than on any political channel.
Sammy the bull gravano also have a youtube channel
I'd trust either of these guys more than the head of the FBI or the CIA at this point. Seriously!
Absolutely!
I agree .
No three letter organization in America funded by tax dollars really has the publics best interests in mind.
None of them.
Look at the projects and programs the government has admitted to already.
When the CIA releases documents saying MK Ultra Mind control was a project they funded and someone like Charles Manson was a product of their doing....
Maybe, just maybe our "selected" not "elected"officials shouldn't be that and Government oversight has extended too far.
Damn right
Theyre all criminals. But Michael is honest and upfront about that the feds and spooks pretend they're not
Our government is just so scary seeing his corrupt it is at times. There needs to be more independent investigations into these politicians.
I also served time in Terminal Island in the south yard F unit from 2007-2013. I swear just hearing this conversation with Michael and George just brings me back, I met so many big players in the feds that taught me so much knowledge, I just wish I could of met these guys!!!
Glad you're out
Was getting released the best day of your life?
@@maliant16 Yes it felt so good after serving 8 years, but I still had 6 months in the halfway house.
@@alexaraujo8688 Never been to jail before so I can’t even imagine.
Getting out of basic training felt like getting out jail but without context I am sure I was just being a bitch :)
@@maliant16Freedom doesn’t have a price!You did good cause prison is not designed for human beings but once you end up serving time then people tend to do their best to make their lives bit easier.You re kind of forced to interact with other people to get better food or pack of smokes shit like that
Mr. Franzese, this was an EXELLENT conversation. I can't wait for part 2.
I could listen to these two talk all day. They’re so interesting and I bet they have so many stories!
I could listen to all this man’s interviews and stories. Many blessings and Gods provision over you Mr. Franzese
Mr. Christie is a legend indeed! thank you Michael for bringing him on. He’s a great storyteller!
...Never heard of him. A legend?? Do you know what a legend is? Hercules is a legend, not this clown.
So glad to see Part 2 coming soon! Excellent interview, Michael! I’ve seen George Christie on several shows. He’s intelligent, articulate, interesting and has led a life so similar to yours. Great work!
Michael has always intrigued me since I was in highschool in the early 80's. I really enjoy his channel now
Thanks for sharing Michael. George is a good dude. It’s an honor to know him.
True story about a Hells Angels encounter... I'm British with Italian heritage on my father side, as a consequence I really got into the old classic Italian Scooters and the smart "mod" way of dressing.
Back in the 90's when I was a teenager, a group of us teens were going to a scooter rally on the South Coast of England, which involved a long ride down there on our little scooters. Now vintage scooters don't go very fast, and whilst we were in the slow lane on a motorway (3 lane highway), a bunch of 15-20 guys on sports bikes, all dressed like Power Rangers thought it would be funny to come and take the p*ss out of our little scooters. They were riding inches away from us, giving us the bird & hand-job signals and generally being intimidating.
Next thing, we heard the unmistakable thrum of Harleys and turned round to see 5 patched up Hells Angels ride up from behind and then in amongst the group of sports bikes. We thought we were gonna get our heads kicked in, but it was the opposite. The Hells Angels basically got the Power Rangers to f*ck off, then rode with us (at our speed) to where we exited the motorway and gave us the thumbs up as we waved them goodbye.
The HA and us scooter kids looked the complete antithisis of each other, however, I like to think it was a shared love of our respective two wheel machines and the open road that made them to do what they did. They didn't have to take the time out to watch our backs and I've had immense respect to them to this very day.
Yeah, when you're not on the receiving end of a baseball bat, or when your sister is not being trafficked by them, or your brother is not ODing on some drugs they sold him, they're easy to respect.
Oh please save us the "tough but fair"-bullshit. There are countless examples of organized crime and just violence in general surrounding these people... any douchebag can smile and greet a neighbour it doesn't change anything.
I had a Vespa 250. Reed valve converersion that sounded like a KX 250 2 stroke. I was invited to a Christmas parade toy drive with the Mongols in Oklahoma. I went to the Chapter leaders shop, and he collected Harly scooters. You never know. They were cool with me even though I was on a Vespa. Mongols motorcycle shop was 50 yards from where I worked at the time. They loved that scooter. They let me know if I had a problem with someone, let them know.
I never had a problem because I knew sh*t wouldn't end well.
Wicked!👌🏼👍🏻
Most of them are decent guys, just do not fuk with them.
This was an awesome conversation. I got the vibe that both guys really enjoyed talking with one another and it made the conversation flow so smooth.
Definitely the case
To think how these guys have seriously turned their lives around for the better and even when they were the "bad guys", they were still less corrupt than today's politicians. They almost never leave their "life"
Much respect to these guys!
Franzese is the man. Truth be told, right here. 👍
I'm from Oxnard. The Hells Angel's ran a club called Nicolbys in Downtown Ventura. The best club I've ever been in and they ran it smoothly.
Was it like the Double Duece in Roadhouse?
Ventura is such a beautiful micro beach town . Lived in Oxnard too. Downtown Oxnard 9th/B st. The gated townhomes, Now I'm in Utah , California just got crazy when it came to homes. I live in the mountains but I miss the Ocean too.
The intelligence of these two is astounding. So well spoken without speaking a damn thing. Well done gentlemen.
ya - such good role models... come on.
The way you speak Michael is just so fluent. I really respect or idk a good word for it but its super cool to me to watch you carry a conversation like this and the time and effort you put to ask certain things and pay attention. Ya big fan of this ive watched a couple but ill make sure to sub keep it up love to learn more about being a good man
I'm shocked that these 2 men have both left their previous lifestyles and survived. Glad to see they have turned their lives around.
Right arm George, you rock my man. Much love from Canada
Micheal I'm so glad that you turned your life into such a positive direction. For people to become motivated to be better people.
What an amazing conversation about two different lifestyles, both legends of different worlds, both of these men hold a degree of respect most won’t understand! Awesome conversation!!
I could listen to these guys talk for hours. You gotta appreciate listening to people like these guys
Great conversation, you can see the mutual respect these two had for each other. Also, you can see the relief that they're both doing something else today
This is no doubt a great sit down. George seems like a genuine person & you both vibed off each other so well. You talked to each other like you are family members. Can't wait for part 2.
One of your best Mike...casual and sincere back and forth..George looks great!
Excellent content Michael, I feel so good for both of you that you've turned your lives around for the better. As you get older I think you get wiser and certain things become more important. God bless you
It's cool to see you guys sit down together! Blessings to you guys for being changed men with alot to share.
I love George’s stories
Thanks Michael! Thanks George! Very educational. Have a Blessed Day!!
So you’ve got one gentleman who was the head of one of the biggest MCs known to man, and another who was a high ranking member of a huge family in the Italian mob…this is excellent.
The "PODFATHER" is back!!💯
If I ever create a podcast I might have to steal that.
@@tylergrey7985 Ha ha steal away bro😂🤣
👌
Great conversation going on. Alot of similarities between the two lives.
Thank you for sharing 👍
What a great interview.
Of all your episodes this is probably one of my favorites.
Remember he came to the school i graduated from,on many occasions. He was at my graduation and he was randomly pictured in one of my graduation photos when i was walking off of the stage. At the time, I didn't know him,or cared to know him, he was just a random guy at the time (in my eyes). Graduated from NHS. We have a movie/documentary that made it to IMDb called "Love Goes Public". About 2 years after i graduated high school (i graduated in 2014), i realized how big he was and who he were. To this day i can't believe he came to the school i graduated from on (many) occasions. NHS was like a performing arts schools disguised as a public school. We had campus for life, we went on trips for free, every Friday, we got tickets to Auburn games for free. At the time,our principal son played for Auburn university with Cam Newton,then they went to the NFL. Our principal would always get her son to bring the Auburn stars to our school and set up basketball games with them. We also played grade vs grade basketball,6th vs 7th grader, 8th vs 9th you get the point.We had people that was currently during life in prison come up to the school and talk with us, (supervised of course). Looking back, I realized i didn't soak up everything I could've have and how special the school is that i graduated from.
Michael told the entrie school so many stories in the auditorium. He had the entire school locked into his grasp.Idk if it was because the things he did, and witnessed but the teachers and students was in awe.
To this day, i still don't know how my school got him to come speak and hang around with us, even came to our graduation in 2014. One day (a few years after highschool), i seen a video of him and my mouth dropped,i was thinking to myself (THAT'S THE GUY!!!!!)This video had over a million views i think. It was then, when i realized who he was, how big he was and couldn't believe he came to our school on many occasions and he came to our graduation in 2014.
I regret not knowing who he was at the time and the "Mafia" was irrelevant to me, but I was slightly familiar with it. I know he's not the biggest known celebrity in the world, but it was an honor to meet him. He done terrible things he's not proud of , but he's a changed man and i wish i can meet him through as an adult eyes.So many questions I could've asked. Who he is on video is exactly the same man that came to our school about 10 years ago. He's a good guy, i wish i knew how my school pulled this off, he's a great pubic speaker and he's good with children and teenagers .I hope God keep on blessing this man .
This is one of your better interviews, if not the best. You guys go back and forth very respectfully.
Hey George I met you 45 years ago your the reason for my motorcycle addiction goodto see you again
Been wanting the book Mafia Democracy and noticed it is sold out....Hope we can get it back in stock one day. Loved the Sitdown and I always find Michaels videos top notch. George Christie is very interesting to listen too.
One of the best sit-downs ever. Christie is brilliant! So viewable.
Great interview Mr. Franzese. Hope you are doing well :)
Riveting interview...and it's obvious that Michael & George have genuine respect for each other. I could watch this conversation for hours.
Two absolute gentleman. Class conversation. Lot of mutual respect. These guys are street guys at their core and it's fascinating to see the understandings they share without using words.
My Uncle was a deputy in the small town, 6'8 long beard, ponytail, where our whole family lives and my mom tells this story where he randomly left his wife,. kid and everyone randomly and came back 2 years later with a hells angels vest and a bike. He had become a chief for them. He would come home every few months, while he was here and "active" he wouldn't speak about the stuff he did. later on when he fully moved back he would talk lightly about what his crew did without details and sayin "allegedly" a lot. also didn't allow phones to be on in his house. you had to cut them off and leave them outside in a waterproof box.
Michael, George....2 men I have a very high respect for. Thank you for doing this sitdown together.
Why do you have respect for them?
@@r-leanmygirl-gj2kt being easily swayed with words and demeanor.
Thanks Michael, one great video after another ! God bless 🙏 🙂 Paulie from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺
So much was said without saying a thing. Fantastic interview!!! Cant wait to watch pt2!!
My father in law was riding with the HAs in the 70s and was security that night the HAs had an incident at that concert that was legendary. They called him Skip. He himself is a legend RIP. He spoke highly of George Christie And Sonny Barger. Respect to the red and white.
Fascinating conversation I can't wait for part two! Much respect for you gentlemen!! Thank you 💛
This was such an interesting interview Mike. I hope you both do more interviews. I could sit and listen to you both talk all day.
Wow.. what an awesome episode. Can't wait for part 2
I loved this sit down Michael keep doing what you are doing. You are doing an excellent job brother. God bless you sir
Mike traveled all over the world for 10+ yrs preaching, teaching, sharing his story. I was with him in Lompoc for 3 yrs. Super humble approachable guy is is exactly as he comes across on this channel. I think this was the best business decision he made so that he can be more effective and be a great husband
Best channel on tube 🎉🎉🎉
Just in time for lunch. Thank you Michael!
I’m supposed to be getting ready for Easter brunch with my family, yet here I am completely invested in watching this interview. 👀
You know, the internet has brought alot of negativity into this world I think, but this conversation is a gem of knowledge. It's mindblowing that now, you can get theses types of conversation between two genuine "organise crime" guys. It gives you alot facets you would not have ben given before the internet.
Michael, I love that you always give praise to our father🙏 and I really enjoy your pods❤
Amen.
Great back and forth, the government is going to watch both of you for life. Over 30 years ago they told me they was going to watch me for life and they have done what they say. The code of silence has been the reason why, i think. Your show has me hooked
Would like to hear more of this interaction. What a pair to sit down and have a civil discussion, and the parallels between the two organizations are absolutely there. Very interesting.
Blows my mind How these guys " sound like they're the nicest men in the world!
Age tends to mellow you
I have been dreaming about this sit down. Not going to miss it!
George Christie JR. is my most favorite person. Love & appreciate him sharing/telling his story. He’s lived many lives.
I’ve been waiting for this colab for a while now, so I couldn’t be any more excited. Thanks for having him on. ❤️🙏🏽
Your favorite person?
@@Baseballnfj Within the community of storytellers & writers, yes, he is ONE of my favorites- of which I have many. My original comment was based in context of this very podcast episode.
My most favorite person is my father. In specific, my parents- just in case there was any confusion.
I don’t know Mr. Christie or Mr. Franzese personally, so the knowledge I have of them comes from what they’ve allowed us to know.
@@jenniferjayne9912I've been digging Mikey Scars " no excuses " pod cast... Have you ever checked him out ?
@@Baseballnfj Lmao these people are sucking these 2 dudes off who probably killed people and ruined lives
Micheal I have binge watched your channel over the last few weeks and I love it !! Am in Glasgow and my dad had several pubs all over this city and the the rules of the oth is same here !! Only they don’t take a oth !! Can’t believe how alike it was only here it would be family’s from certain areas within Glasgow !! My father done a sentence and came out got into the pub game !! Everyone knows him he was never part of any gang but respect by every gang member he is no fool but the mafia ran the same there was sit downs if there was any trouble between these guys there was always some level of respect giving to each other to try resolve whatever it was!! But now a days here the younger generation are to quick to shoot at each other over little things such as woman or just to try go up a peg !! There was the rule you never through anyone’s door if there was kids there but now a days they are roofless and there is no loyalty now or respect!! Anyway lol enjoying you Chanel ❤
Thank you both very much , Both of you i have alot of respect for . Ive been lucky to have lived it too and left to have a quieter life as well after 27 yrs of some of the wildest times of my life on the Canadian side of things. being in Montreal quebec and all over ontario since the late 90s It was very hard to not have .It was another one of those wrong places at the right time in history i guess haha . Mr Franzese I really enjoy your videos , Ive met some amazing "stand up guys" and wiseguys as well and ive had a fascination with this culture since i was a kid following every piece of media or story and movies i could find. With Goodfellas being my all time favorite . The principles i learned from those at a young age have actually helped me in life very much and i guess its what kind of got me into trouble as well tho haha. I love your show , thanks again for sharing all the great content and interviews . Take care
I hate the hypocrisy of government. They should be prosecuted for committing crimes too.
Yup never happen tho tho government is the biggest mob ever
They keep it up we'll have to skip prosecution. When your taxes pay for child trafficking I find it hard to not draw the line at that alone
Vote for smaller government.
I hate the hypocrisy of whiners who complain that others were successful in life while THEY failed!🙄
@@DrBaronMunchausen except there are some 300+ million Americans ALL wanting something different from government! This WILL by definition create big government!
Thank you, Michael! Cannot wait part 2
@MichaelFranzese. This video was quite interesting. I really enjoyed it. Keep up the great work that you do and may God bless you.
I lived in the southern California area, can't say i missed the chaos these 2 so willing embraced
Another fascinating episode! God bless to you and your family!
Respect to Michael and Family. From PGH.
I think it's valuable when people like Michael point out the flaws with the justice system, and how there are people who feel the need to break the law in order to uphold the law, they feel the need to weaponize the system to go after people they don't like. It's quite revealing when even former members of the mafia can recognize the mafia-like enterprise that plagues our country today. But for us Christian men it should come as no surprise, you can't change human nature, but what you can do is accept responsibility over your own life, and model yourself after somebody who is free of these flaws.
Mike you are an inspiration in more ways than I can count. God bless you and your family 🙏 ✝️ 🇺🇸
This was GREAT ! Can't wait for Part 2
When a corporation doesn’t pay taxes it’s called a tax break, when a gangster doesn’t pay taxes it’s called tax evasion. -Nobody Important
I like this quote but it's not as black and white as you put it. In a world where those corporations aren't being used to the benefit of the government and society, I'd say yeah that shows hypocrisy. However, it's not as simple as that since the government is collecting from corporations that it can interact with more so than the mafia for instance in the shadows.
I'm probably going to get a lot of hate for this but here's my opinion of the nuance between a corporation and a criminal organization: The oil/gas corporations who provide a service to the nation by providing a valued commodity are benefitting the nation economically in areas that outweigh any tax break they might receive. Now an example from organized crime not paying taxes: they earn money through extortion, skimming profits from legitimate businesses, and worse. I'm not even including the more dramatic methods of profits such as drugs/prostitution.
Can you not see the difference between the value that both contribute to society as a whole and why a tax break and tax evasion from illicit activities are not even in the same neighborhood of eachother in terms of relevance.
I’d like to know both Michael’s and Nobodyimportant’s opinion on this. From what I understand the reason of that is because supposedly the government awards corporations for providing jobs and other things for communities or society as a whole across the United States.
@@Quickshotted you actually believe that bullshit? I bet you believe 9-11 was done by a bunch of men in caves and Iraq had WMDs, well, other than the ones the US gave Iraq in the 80s to use on the Iranians. As George Carlin would say, “it’s one big club and you ain’t in it.”
@@Quickshottedyou are correct. A tax break is when the company is going to create hundreds plus jobs. For example a few years ago, Amazon was going to open a factory in New York, creating 25,000 jobs. So the state and city offered them tax breaks as an incentive to come to New York. That’s how every state , government works. All the way down to the local city council.
It’s not a tax break for ever. It’s typically for a couple years. This helps the company to build the factory and hire employees, before they have to pay a large tax. Corporations and large companies pay lots of tax. The left are delusional when they claim, Elon, or Jef, doesn’t pay taxes.
Elon, paid 5 billion in taxes. They have loopholes that help with not paying 💯 of their tax. That’s the same benefits all businesses have. Id tomorrow you open a donut shop. You get to right items off your taxes, that your neighbor that works a job doesn’t. If that wasn’t the case no one could afford to start a business.
Amazon, didn’t open the factory, because AOC, made people protest. They went to another state and New York citizens didn’t get the 25,000 jobs.
Michael, was actually taking money meant for tax purposes and using it for their group.
It would be similar if you didn’t pay state taxes. His businesses brought in money to launder, and found away to profit of the tax meant for the state.
That’s if I understood what he was describing in the video.
People that cry about corporations or wealthy people getting tax breaks has no clue about economics, or owning a business. Without companies like Amazon, Tesla, google, Apple, etc. hundreds of millions of people would be unemployed.
It's even worst than that. If the criminal tries to pay taxes, it's called "money laundering". So the criminal is screwed either way.
Top notch interview. Both sides. Straight to the point. Can't wait for part #2.
I would trust these 2 guys to run this country in a heart beat! Awesome interview two brothers that can bring it in like that,is priceless!!
I'm 30 years old, and I don't know anyone my age that trusts the government.
I'm in my 60s, and no one I know trusts them either. Only fools trust the government
I'm 37 never trusted them once and have never voted however my Aboriginal heritage leads towards this distrust now we're all Aboriginal 😂
Wow, I was completely locked in the entire 40 minutes...This is an absolutely incredible conversation to sit and watch.
Thank you gentlemen for putting this together!
I could listen to these guys all day.
This is so heartwarming to watch and I can't explain why but it's awesome
