Hasan examines the policies that have made retirement an issue in America, and sits down with Senator Bernie Sanders to discuss the challenges young people will face as the elderly population in the U.S. skyrockets over the next few decades.

Millennials think that when the Baby Boomers are gone, they will inherit the country, and it's wealth. Like Generation X doesn't exist ? Sorry but you got another 30 or 40 years to wait.

I loved how Bernie picked up on Hasan's jokes in realtime.
Yeah he's pretty sharp
even I couldnt pick all LOL. how does such old man have that level of understanding for youngesters, that is beyond me.
most elderly ppl I see are completely opposite to that.
Yes, editing and scripting is not a thing, he totally instantly understood the joke and could play off it well.
@@CursedSwallow doesn't seem to be a thing on Hasan's show - watch the cringe interview of Justin Trudeau
He is one of the few that does for sure.
I’ve never seen anyone else play along with Hasan’s jokes like Bernie. Love the guy, he’s so funny.
exactlyyy! i was thinking the same.
Just watch any politician come on to a comedy show. They just grin and internally scream.

I got anxiety from watching this episode,
and I just 23.
Honestly same, that's why I'm saving up my money to invest in index funds & stock. I hope Yang becomes our President because if Bernie wins and taxes Wall Street more it'll affect my chance of investing in Index Funds at all, and that terrifies me that one of my only other alternative option is going to get taken away.
I’m a 16 and I got anxiety
Your best shot at retirement is to have a plan. It's certainly doable. The biggest thing is to buy a house; don't rent. If you buy a house before you're 30 and stick to the 30 year mortgage no matter what (even if you move), you'll have a house paid off before you retire. That drastically reduces how much money you need coming in each month during retirement.
@@user-lg3yj2fz2j, hope you like slums.
I envy your youth, not your future.
I'm not even kidding my Indian mother has repeatedly mentioned that I'm their retirement savings. It's scary because even I don't know if I'll be able to make it for myself.
You can make it.. You will make it!
Have faith in your abilities and think positive... The Universe is listening!!
You're stronger together than alone.
Nikki C literally everyone’s parents are like that, but the majority of Americans don’t think like that, or go through that. Literally in every country kids are almost like a lottery ticket (in a good way), yet a lot of Americans don’t get that. They get treated well, and provided for by their parents, and when they start to do well they dump there parents in a retirement home. It’s sad.
Parents saying that to a daughter in india is very rare. You should be proud of it.
@@Sergio-fu7mv The parents have had a good live, good jobs, money - tell the kids they must care for them without a good job and only say:try harder or don't come home.
My Dad died at an Emeritus facility because of a bedsore, and caregivers there stole all my mom's jewelry after his death. I will gladly join any Class Action Lawsuit that takes them on.

As someone who isn't hoping to brake my back by 35 and plans on eventually affording a cockroach free apartment I wouldn't work in a nursing home, rich peoples kids are lighter at equivalent risk of sexual assault... stealing from people who aren't living in dignity either however isn't currently beyond me.
I'm sorry, brother
First Yang tells him to be his running mate and now Bernie wants him to be his press secretary. He might have a future in politics.
He's already appeared in Congress so there's that too.
Sounds good to me tbh lol
Will probably represent Pakistan

@@HH_1988 Sick burn dude. You're doing the same thing as him.
"You're my retirement plan." Every Indian parent ever. Thats why they're always pressuring us to marry and have kids because " who'll take care of you when you're old?"
Well that’s how it’s supposed to be they took care of us when we were young and we have to take care of them when they are old
@@adanomar2944 yeah sure but I ain't having kids though.
Adan Omar Says who? That mentality just turn adults back into children.
@@LouisKing995 Have you ever meant truly old people like 80+? Of course they're childlike, they can't completely take care of themselves and at that point their only goal in life is to enjoy it after working hard. The only other option is a nursing home which would infantilize them further.
-_- Lol of course I have, my grandparents are both approaching 90, perhaps all the old people you’ve met are infantile but my grandparents still live by themselves and they are proud of it, obviously if something happened to them my uncle or my mum would take them in but they’d never want to burden themselves on their children, they’d feel ashamed.
As a 40-year-old single with no kids and very little extended family, this episode makes driving off a cliff at 65 really attractive.
Rabbit Stay healthy 🙏🏻
Please don't do that
Having children does not guarantee that they will care for you when you are in your retirement years. They might not be doing well either. Or they are living their lives and don’t care about their aging parents.
Euthanasia is legal in Switzerland-- there are companies like Dignitas that you can go through for assisted suicide. It's controversial, but it's my plan if things go unexpectedly south. In the meantime, I'm saving for retirement to make sure I don't have to use the more controversial options.
Thats what I thought during that Midsommar movie.
I had to take care of my dad while going to college and working as much as possible to help pay bills. It’s an extremely stressful experience and when he died from liver failure it was one of the worse days of my life and the entire time he was thanking me for everything I did for him over the last few years.
I salute you bro.
Nothing but Respect for you, my dear friend.
That's so sad! You guys need to change the system it's only designed to make you work and pay taxes to the government as they don’t care!
Bless you for your care.
That’s terrible. :( but this is normal sadly.
Bernie is so chill nothing throws him off lol
when he was leading up to it i was like who tf is he talking about and i was expecting to be disappointed then i see bernie AHHH :)
Because he’s been preaching the same thing for decades so he’s ready and seen everything already

As an immigrant it’s frown upon if u take ur parents to an old people’s home.
If you take your parents to an old people's home as a non-white person i will not stress the shit you'll take from everyone: people in the street, your co-workers, tour SO family, your family, friends, literally ev1 will shit on you 24/7.
Yup
Bro just imagine the cruelty of putting your parents who loved you and raised you for years into one of these "open graves" called old peoples home. Rather I dont afford shit than leave my parents to such a fate
changing tradition is not easy, usa tradition is leaving old people home in care facility. It may be bad to you but in some sense that's what they want. Root cause of problem is population, corruption and lack of support from
gov't system.
That is better anyways. You know that your parents are properly cared for. Those old people's home are not very good at taking good care of the retired people.
I love Bernie's sense of humor. He tends to deliver it so deadpan sometimes and it's HILARIOUS.
Larry David
“The most hip hop thing you can do? Is save the rainforest.” That’s amazingly self aware.
I love how when he took off the face mask his body immediately aged too
But just like the typical Hasan Minhaj, his hair still had product on it, even after aging. It's a good running gag about the hair product he uses.
i love that bernie is also playing along with hasans dumb jokes
Bernie has a great sense of humor. The media keeps lying that he's an angry old man telling people to get off the lawn but if you watch him, he engages people with humor, love, compassion and emotion.

@@charlesqdu yeah Im sure Sanders is to blame as hours are being cut off because of a wage raise (which still isnt much after all). Its not like its messed up that the wage is so low it has to be complemented with food stamps or the workers will go hungry.

*John Stewart has entered the chat*

Voting isnt enough. Americans need to do better. Trump and his people are taking a dump on civil rights and thats only one area. They skew voting areas to get results that suit them and their agendas. Ask yourself how iowa has so much voting power when they have such a low population say compaired to california. If all votes counted, trump would have lost, fact.
Omg your dad could send at least 1-2 teenagers to college every year with his pension :O
my dad's pension is 7.8k per year and it was what he used to support 6 people,my siblings when we were in school, for almost 2 decades. I don't understand how money works in different countries since 7.8k here is more than enough yet for others in other countries it doesn't 😅😅
As a child of immigrants, I heard my entire life that I was the "retirement plan".
yep, my entire point of existence is to help my parents when they grow old.

Man Bernie is still quick for his age. Caught himself immediately saying elderly. Biden would even have been able to pronounce it.
Bernie 2020
Biden MIGHT catch himself, but it's basically everything after that's just bad. Like when he caught himself about to say white leg hairs, then said the blonde, then immediately talked about roached and having kids on his lap.
Trump would say elderly then realize he said elderly and then commit to saying elderly and go on a rant about elderly people. The fucker never turns on what he says mid-sentence even if he mispoke

His interviews with Colbert are downright hilarious. He doesn't get enough credit for his wit. Even during debates he is making funny remarks.
Everyone who actually watches his speeches rather than the edited and manipulated versions shown on mainstream media.
GenX checking in here. My husband and I are already living this. My mother spent a year in assisted living but "luckily" her finances covered this. I put "luckily" in quotation marks because she was basically living off the money she got as my sister's beneficiary when she died in 2015. That wasn't the outcome I wanted, but financially it was a good thing. My MIL is another story. She has no money and my husband and I have to help pay for her home health care and for other things she needs. My SIL has power of attorney but is taking her sweet time about submitting the Medicaid paperwork, so we're stuck with the bills in the meantime because she doesn't earn enough to pay for what MIL needs. To all the younger folks, if this isn't your situation now, it may well be your situation when you're reaching retirement age just like my husband and I are. We'd like to retire and move on to part time jobs and being volunteers to better our community, but that may turn out to be a pipe dream. It sucks to have to hope your parents drop dead and spare you the expense of caring for them. We're a rich nation. We can do better than this.
Exactly how I feel. X'er here too (I'm 48) and I'm terrified about the next 10-20 years as my folks are both 80 now....
I thought i would be rich by now but life didn't work out how i planned and i have NOTHING... What am i to do? (rhetorical)
Thx 4 covering Bernie with 0 smears... Seems very rare these days
This is what happens when every single major figure in media is a multi-millionaire that has all their necessities taken care of and cannot relate with normal Americans, so they'd rather smear Bernie so they don't have to pay higher taxes than save thousands of American lives.
@@ashesmandalay1762 Yep they have absolutely no reason to want Bernie because they're comfortable. For someone who always respected news and media for benefiting the public, it's sad to see.
I love how he said president sanders. He knows who is going to win!! Bernie2020!!!!
J Cabrera he proudly endorsed Bernie in 2016, I hope he’s just waiting some time until he does the same in 2020
@skbuoy If he doesn't run out of the country first.
@skbuoy nahhhh, you could make that statement about any president running for reelection. Obviously the other side doesn't have as strong of a leader 1 year before the election, they are still going through the process of finding a candidate.
Do you really think the same population that elected Donald Trump would elect Bernie Sanders?
Yang should be the president now. Bernie should have been the president 10 years ago.
Dollars and profits over human life. Society is progressing, while morality is declining.
Forward movement isn't always upwards. Example, the internet, a way that we could quickly know the material needs of everyone, and organize the distribution of resources accordingly. Instead, we use it to game markets and create a slow moving police surveillance state.
The world is far more primitive than we realize. Old money and crazy secret societies still rule.
Is it really progression without morals?
@@rotemtomhagbi1937 I don't buy it. If people are raised in a kind coopertive society which embraces art and philosophy then people will follow suit. What we have today is a competitive society. Upheld by a CIA run media oligopoly carefully planning psycologically manipulating social engineering.

My Goodness I wish I could edit and do graphics like Hasan's team... wow... just wow... the tidal wave at 6:05 is just insane. Hasan did give them credit in the video gaming industry video.
I feel like Bernie genuinely had hope in Hassan giving him advice he could actually use 😂😂
Did you see his campaign? He has access to plenty of kiddos even younger and "Hipper" than Hasan that CAN advise him on what the youth expects to hear. I think Hasan played the role of such a staffer for the sake of the interview/sketch.
Bernie takes advice from everyone because he actually listens. You never know where you might hear good ideas from.
@@whisperingsage89 Say it agin'!
I’m so glad Hasan did this episode. After taking a social gerontology class for my degree, I became very unaware of (1) how unprepared I am and (2) how little discussion there is about how millennials need to prepare for the retirement of themselves and their parents
If you told me in 2009 that ten years later we were all going to get news from a comedian on Netflix through TH-cam, I would never believe it.
damn!
Bernie has such a great sense of humor. I wish he were going to be our president.
when he took off the brown face, i was expecting to see Justin Trudeau
Oh man..if Justin did that phew...the guy has a sense of humor but that would be balsy af
lol
Hahaha
More proof of the sense of humor that the MSM says Bernie doesn't have.
He needs to start biting people's fingers to be liked by the mainstream, apparently
Honestly, having a quick wit like that should shut up anybody saying he's too old to be president. Biden can barely form a coherent sentence and Bernie is right along with Hasan on every joke with a comeback.
As of 2019, save 100K, deposit to an INDIAN savings bank account at 6.25%per annum, move to suburbs in INDIA. The interest alone will cover annual household expenses and medical is affordable and most of it is covered by insurance.
Never even thought of Sanders actually winning but when he said „President Sanders“ I got the chills. That’s my ASMR from now on
Bernie is ready. His time has come.
Bernie polls better against Trump than any other Democrat. If people want Trump gone, Bernie is their best bet.
Of course, he will also make billionaires pay their taxes for once, so the entire mainstream media is against him.
For anyone curious the time stamp for that is at 13:58
Btw, Bernie is doing much better than mainstream media makes it seem he is. They've been omitting his achievements for months now.
Please vote in ur primaries. Please knock on doors. Campaign. Donate. Its the fight for your life
One of Patriot’s best episodes for young people.
It's scary when you can't afford to get old.
That joke at the end about multiple-generation households is actually going to become more and more real as time goes on. It’s already becoming a more common type of household in the US today.

I had to quit my unstable job in Hawaii. I sold my apartment in Honolulu, cashed my pension and moved my 401k. There was no way I could retire early at 62 in Hawaii or anywhere in the US. Mainly unbelievable healthcare insurance cost. The corporations and monopolies have overpriced everything and are ripping off us off of every single dime. My quality of life is so much better in Thailand then The US. Also I can help my family here. Every expat from the the US and Uk don’t want to move back to the their home country
I am gradually concerned about the future we are building.
This intro is the most hype out of any ty show, change my mind
It's quite sad the way the system works there.
My dad retired at 57 after his 30 years of work were made and he gets 82% of his former salary as his retirement paycheck every month. We live in a third world country and with all the good and bad, people are still not forced to have savings while being "active workers", unless their employers fucked them with the amount of registered hours of work.
And even when my mom had to take care of my grandma, she had a special license called "relative care", where she could take days off to take care of any sick relative without losing any money.
@@Zeriel00 Yep
where do you live, because we all need to move there
Are you indian
And are your parents government employe es
What country is that good to its citizens, with that sort of government, why are you considered a third world country?
I am only asking because in Australia most people think we are the lucky country, but as a 59 year old woman, i believe 40 years ago we were, but not for a long time now, they have changed our legislations so much, that you might as well call us little America, its disheartening and should be criminal what our governments have done to this country.
When i was young, retirement age was 55, and they brought in an incentive to keep women with children at home to care for their families.
It was called family tax benefit, which was already in existence, but they added a part B.
Basically it meant, that once a fortnight you would recieve in your bank account, depending on how many children you had, example on 3 kids, just under $600. But on the other side, it also depended on what your partners wage, personally i thought it was pretty high, so if your husband/parner had a wage of 100.000 a year, you were eligible, personally i thought anyone on that sort of wage in the 80's and 90's didnt bloody need it.
But thats just my personal opinion.
I really don't understand why there are people who don't like Bernie. He has integrity, he has been fighting and advocating for our rights for many years. We know he is not greedy, he really is in politics to change for the better. I would love to see Bernie Sanders president and Andrew Yang vice president, their ideas and policies combined are what the US needs right now.
Laia it’s because they’re not interested in real progress. What people don’t understand is that moderates like Obama were only beneficial for a certain amount of people, but they only care about shit that affects them

I have a tendency to pronounce George the Spanish way in my head. Started as a gag but now it's become chronic xD
Is this why France protested in the streets when the government tried to reform their universal pension program?
I love Bernie he's too good
If his plans were actually financially stable and doesn't come at the expense of the private sector growth (i.e. OUR JOBS), then yes too good. But that's not the case. Trump 2020 because democrats are really crappy this time around. Trump will handily win re-election. Mark my words!
@@BRBallin1 Bernie beats Trump in every head to head poll lol
@@SeahawkSTRIKE hes a sensitive lad, just leave him be.
@Joe Joseph You better hope the Democratic party nominates Bernie as their guy for the general election because nobody else has a legit chance to win against Trump. It'll be interesting if he ends up as the nominee and I look forward to a fair fight. If it's Bernie vs Trump, the race is pretty 50/50
I swear the quality of the graphics on this show always amazes me
Years ago, my husband and I had to decide between him working for the federal government or industry. The federal government was the more secure bet but industry offered almost twice the income. But we knew that extra income would disappear due to layoffs, job changes, pensions going bankrupt, etc. So we opted to go with the federal government. It was a wise move as I am now living off of my husband's retirement plan. Without it, I would be living on the streets or dead. As it is, I have his health insurance and a monthly annuity that supplements my pathetic Social Security check. I feel really sad, for my sons, as both opted to go with industry and now both expect to have to work till they die. While that sounds like a plan, what happens if they become disabled like my husband and I did? My husband survived for 13 years being disabled, thanks to his annuity. I've survived 19 years of disability, again thanks to his annuity. I shudder to think of what will happen to my children if they become disabled without an annuity or pension.
Thank you for sharing, Betty. Growing old and retiring is really such a simple right that all Americans should enjoy.
Please consider voting for Bernie Sanders if you haven't already. He is trying to share the good fortune of your experience with the American people at large.
#bernie2020 because no one should have to die if they can physically no longer work
I hope things change for the better before your children reaches retirement so they can be well off. It's terrible how things are run these days :(
The other option, taking double the salary, probably would have lead to a large 401k if you had saved and invested the difference
My 401k went belly up with the Financial crisis of 2007-08 . We would have lost all our retirement instead of just our extra retirement funds. One of my sons lost his retirement funds thanks to that event.
I live in Australia and have been struggling between caring for my two chronically ill and disabled parents and working full time since I was 20 (I’m now 30), as well as trying to finish my nursing university degree (so that I can make more money to help keep us above water financially). And I know compared to those in my situation in the USA I am more fortunate as we have universal healthcare, NDIS, Centrelink, etc. (even though there are a number of problems that have needed to be addressed with all of them for a long time).
At 28, I already had a taste of this when my mom had a life-threatening condition (Guillain Barre) that kept her in the ICU for months and then in a rehab/nursing center. I was struggling to finish my MPH, work fulltime as a Legal Assistant, my own chronic health issues and be her legal guardian (doing medical/financial/etc.). The pressure was crushing and I had to make hard choices to make sure she still had a home and medical care.
Where are you working with your MPH ?i am also doing it now.
@@lifewithAysha Congrats on working for your MPH! I got mine at UNC-Chapel Hill in '16. I still get that OMG-stomachache feeling looking back.
@@pcarebear1
I love it so far, biostats gets me though,but overall I love it. Which sector are you working in??
@@lifewithAysha Biostats was a killer! I had to retake it a couple times and I barely passed (you have to get a B avg. to pass) I am trying to break into maternal and child health (my focus) or health policy. Unfortunately, the job that put me through grad school (my current job) as a legal asst. has pigeonholed me...gotta stay positive though😅
fucking hell, you're amazing.

Yeah probably just social media data. Stop using social media, you'll be better off without it.
@Ashvith Shetty
Have you read his platform? And the fact Bernie has always been on the correct side of history...
@Ashvith Shetty Bernie 2020! Feel the Bern
Ashvith Shetty Judging by your comments here, I can tell that you’re more ignorant than many young Americans. I can tell you haven’t researched Bernie and know nothing about what you’re talking about. How about you go to his website and read for a little bit. Then look up his history as both the Mayor of Burlington, Vermont, and in Congress as a Rep and Senator. That might help you not look like a complete fool. He’s not like a normal politician - he speaks out against them too.
When you see Bernie Sanders and your heart swoons!
wow hes actually really good when i heard about his show I thought he was just gonna do a cheap copy job of the daily show but i love how he made it his own and puts his soul into it
The last thing he said about immigrants is so true lmao I’ve asked my mom what her retirement plan is and she says one of her kids will take care of her xD
How does one save for retirement in the US when so many of us have student loan debt and medical debt??
Get a better passport, Canada might take you, if you say sorry.
You open an IRA or a Roth IRA and contribute what you can to a growth stock mutual fund and ride compound interest till you retire. The younger you start the better because the longer your money has to grow the more money your money makes
Debt is america's slogan
If you have student loan debt for more than 10 years after graduating then you failed your education
Don’t go to college unless the career you are going for will net you enough money to pay your loan off. When I graduated college my first job paid $35k. Their reason, I had no experience and had to be trained. I eventually earned $60k but it took 6 years, minimal raises and non-guaranteed bonuses only when they indicated our company did well. I work with others without a degree who were working their before me and we make about the same, with me making roughly $1,500 more. Lol.... time on job verses college degree. Not that big of a difference considering most of my salary went towards student loans. While they were not in school experiencing real life and paying a mortgage. They actually came out ahead in reality.
the fact he posted this on my birthday when i was feeling old... scary
This is so sad to watch now that uncle Bernie has dropped out of the race.. he was my last hope 😭
It sucked. *Starts to cry* 😭😭😭
Well that's because too many old people are stupid enough to fall for socialism fearmongering. Ugh.
The guy that wasn't a millionaire until he ran for president, that guy 😂🤣
14:21 "Our parents are living longer then ever"😂😂 I couldn't control it.
In Taiwan growing up, part of the culture installs in your brain "respect your elders. You will be old one day".
People always let elders sit first in public transport, and we bow to those older than us, simply because they have lived life a little longer and more likely to be wiser than me.
It was an important childhood lesson.

“Millennials will not listen to me if they know I’m old.”
Bernie Sanders and AOC 2020 and 2024 !!!!!!!!!
Whoever did the makeup effects at the start of this props to them, nice work.
"pension" that's the stuff they have in Europe.
and the neolibs of the right and pretend left are cutting and stealing from our pension funds all the time. socialism for the rich austerity for the rest of us. this neoliberal capitalism is a global parasite.
Thats the stuff they have in most of the world
"pensions are communist"
European governments have been hollowing that out for the last 40 years. From the start, basically. Now we have the EU :(
I'm from Europe and I'm not counting on a pension that will actually allow me to retire.
I practice my retirement at home, 20 minutes a day, staring out my front yard windows, "Welcome to Costco, I love you. Welcome to Costco, I love you." Should be fun, new seasons of Kicked in the Balls forever.
Awesome to finally see Bernie on the show :) 2020!!!

I think this is what my mom was realizing when she possibly took her own life. I'd do anything to be her retirement plan right now, tell your parents while you still can.
I'm so sorry about your mom
I feel so sorry for you mom.
Please bring this show back. Please 🙏
