Grey Winters your repeated posts on this video have no substance, you just throw the word commie around. I suspect you don't even know what it means and am certain you dont understand the differences between communism and democratic socialism.
Mike Smith funny thing is that these progressive economic policies of Bernie and Jil Stein were common sense in the Booming era of the 50‘s to mid 70‘s.
You go Bernie! True to your words.I just want say how America has become selfish,greedy,uncaring about the humanity itself.There should be equality and prosperity for all( rich or poor)in America. God bless you Bernie! for what your doing for America, middle and working class and poor and seniors.God is with you and with us all.
***** Nothing is never Obama's fault. buck never stops at his desk. I am glad he printed trillion for the 1% and hard on small business. He said the same shit Bernie said. Hillary chanting the same thing.
I have so much respect for this man. there's no beating around the bush, he tells it like it is and has all the data to support it. every single point is impenetrable. and what's more, you know that he's sincere because unlike his opponents he's been out doing the same work, fighting for the same causes his whole life. I honestly don't see how any working class citizen could reject him as president. no other candidate is more dedicated to reviving democracy and the true American Dream than this man. #BernieSanders2016
Athrough Z He won't get donations from Wall Street so where is he going to get fundings to run the campaign, paying it himself? Voters must contribute and invest in their own future.
I'm still considering giving funding to him, but I'm glad to know he does not support private contributions. I believe all state and national elections should be publicly financed.
Athrough Z That would be ideal for democracy but corporations can contribute as much as they want. Sanders supporters can contribute but he put a limit to it and it's very low, to low in my opinion. He has to rely on media coverage then and there are media owners.
it is mind blowingly amazing how americans are not paying attention to what he is saying. If this man runs for president and got less than 30% of the voters, i will never respect america again.
I agree with that, but we all know america has an abundance of people not willing to look into anything so we all have to spread the word. We can't just let campaign ads go do their thing we have to do more to make sure we have a competent president. Maybe if enough spread the word and get others into politics we could oust the congressman and senators who are working against the middle class.
Jeffrey Jernberg the thing that boils my blood is when the majority of liberal-voting people never vote. why? why are conservatives good at voting and liberals totally retarded? why?
ptegegn1 I have no clue. Sadly we live in a 'leave it to someone else' society. Whether helping a sick person or fixing our government officials. We just go 'meh' or at least a majority. Maybe our intelligence is why we often lose out to those who are easily won over by sweet nothings that ruin us all? I have no clue and for that I apologize
Jeffrey Jernberg if one day all liberals vote for this amazing man, instead of warmongering democrats like Hillary, USA would start getting better, not only the rich but this time the poor will also be lifted from poverty and the middle class will grow. vote sanders. -from norway ;)
TheGramJam money in politics is the root of most problems in america, until people get back their representatives from the hand of the rich oligarchs, things won't get any better.
So you blame him for getting stuck in situations where he can't do a thing? I'm not the greatest at politics but lazy dems are why its been so crappy. Letting idiots get voted in and essentially hold our government ransom. >.> not really Obamas fault if you ask me.
James Howard He definitely didn't say anything close to what bernie says. He BRIEFLY mentioned the income inequality in either of his campaigns, but that was just pandering. This inequality and the root of what's causing it are Bernie's platform dude.
He's been there a long time, but look at all the bills he's TRIED to pass. I agree we need to oust much of the old blood, but some of those there already know procedure, and like Bernie have an idea of what can help actual people, not just these golems of industry. In more than one way you're right though, we need a lot more new blood and senators should have a limit on how long they can serve in office, and Bernie is one of the people we need to get out of the senate he's been there too long going unheard it's time to send him to the Oval Office and maybe we can have real hope and real change (for the better?), at least something that represents the people not just wall street.
+|Jake|C| Bernie Sanders is a man with a plan, he will fight to live far beyond an 8 year term so that he can see this nation is great and continue without needing his guidance.
blah Hey do me a favor and look up the difference between communism and socialism. A good example of socialism are the scandanavian countries, who report a higher standard of living, have a better education, and are wealthier.
One day he will be known as Bernie Sanders: The Man Who Saved America. There are going to be so many books about him, documentaries, movies, he is going to be a role model for future presidents. People are going to question how we were able to see the way we were living our daily lives as normal and okay before he came along and fixed this country.
SaulOhio Yeah, and he also did not have the large quantity of plans put in place that Bernie has nor did he have his entire political history showing that he intended to do what he says he is doing nor did he plan to take money out of politics and Obama is a brown-nosing apologist wheras Bernie stands up for what he thinks needs to be done, even when he is called a "damn socialist" (which Bernie was called in a political meeting in the 90s).
Phantomhive And those plans are all wrong. He has proudly assumed the label of socialist, so what are you complaining about. Of course, THIS time, socialism is going to work. After hundreds of socialist experiments all around the world, THIS time it will be different. SOMEHOW its going to be different from Chavez's "21st Century socialism". Taking money out of politics is not going to change anything. That is TRYING to take money out of politics isn't going to change anything. The cronyism and corruption is not a product of capitalism or economic inequality, but of the mixed economy. If government officials have power over the economy, if they have the power of life and death over businessmen, businessmen will do what they have to to get power over government, both out of self-defense, and to take advantage of government power for themselves. What is needed is a separation of economic and state the same way we have a separation of church and state.
SaulOhio Fine, you can live happily in your fantasy and I will live happily in mine. And if he becomes president, we can see whose happy little fantasy becomes real.
Be wary of Right Wing Think Tank propaganda that saturates the internet distracting you away from WHAT SANDERS is talking about in this awesome speech.
I think that CHART that Senator Sanders used in this speech should be put on the front pages of all of the newspapers in the United States and discussed on CNN and Fox and CNBC and ABC and CBS and public television----and also on David Letterman's and Bill Maher's comedy/sex/and politics programs that are so popular. You know that this speech is part of the Congressional Record and Senator Sanders leaves the legacy of TRUTH in the Record for future generations.
Trickle down my a---. The well-heeled could care less if thier money trickles down to you folks! Just as long as they find enough suckers to believe that! Bernie 2016!
Trolls will troll. The fact that I see so many trolls on Bernie's videos now is a huge step forward in his media campaign. It's working Bernie, keep it up. Bernie speaks the truth and backs it up with his voting record. He is the only politician in the race that can do that. Sanders/Warren 2016.
Spot on Bernie. Spot on. We got screwed. I got screwed, literally, to keep my job. And subsequently my family got screwed, too. We are still reeling from it and struggling to recover. I'm one of the middle class you are talking about. I somehow managed to hang on to my home but I had purchased the cheapest house in my town - a little 1948 war cottage on a postage stamp of a lot. There are three families living in my 900 SF cottage plus detached garage. I had people sleeping on my couch and living in tents pitched in my yard during that time. It was bad. Really bad. And all the young adults that came of age during this time. It was horrible for them. Jobless, lost, aimless, fed a pile of lies their whole lives being told if they just did good in elementary school, so they could do good in high school, so they could get into college, then they would automatically get a great job and be able to buy a home, a car, a big screen TV and live happily ever after! BS! Ha ha ha. Poor kids. They were not prepared for THIS reality AT ALL!!! How did I not commit suicide? Too many people depending on me. I HAD to stay strong. And how do I stay relatively happy? Cuz I THINK THERE IS KARMA!!! I don't have to worry about those greedy, predatorial fucks becuz I believe the universe will take care of them for me. This I rest assured on. I believe this life is but a small yet consequential blip in the big scheme of things so I'm not worried that it might not happen NOW becuz it WILL happen in its own time. I go to the next big adventure with a clean conscience.
aking as an outsider with an interest in US politics and society (I am English - have been all my life), it seems to me that the voters hardly ever get what they voted for. Perhaps, now, times have changed! Mr Sanders seems like the breath of fresh air that USA has needed for a long. long time. I for one wish him well.
John Benton __Note: America became the richest country in the history of world because of Roosavelt's socialist policies! We don't need Tax Cuts for Billionaires and multi-national corporations____ We_Need_JOBS!!!___ FACT: Billionaires and Giant Corporations are NOT the primary job creators; when billionaires & Giant Corporations get more money, only a tiny, tiny bit goes back into the American economy (Q: How many homes, cars, meals, services, etc. can each billionaire buy?__ A: not so many). Billionaires & Giant Corporations don't create jobs with their money, instead they hide their money in off shore accounts, search for tax shelters by moving factories off shore to low wage countries, and then gamble with that money for profits on wall street, to make more Money!!!__not jobs.***THE REAL JOB CREATORS are the poor and the middle class: when poor and middle class families get more money, they **SPEND it** in the local economy. When money is spent in the local economy on homes, cars, goods, food, services, etc, etc, etc, it creates **PAYCHECKS**. Paychecks in the hands of consumers, creates **DEMAND**, demand creates... **** J - O - B - S ! ! ! ! ! **** Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!!!!To create JOBS, we need to eliminate corporate welfare and subsidies, eliminate excessive tax breaks to billionaires & Giant Corporations, and then use THAT MONEY to raise the minimum wage to get that money into the hands of THE REAL JOB CREATORS!!!!!. This will get poor people off of welfare, and get them working, turning them into **CUSTOMERS** and supporting the small local business' that are owned by us Middle Class people (i.e.; plumbers, dentists, mechanics, painters, contractors, computer techs, truck drivers, salespeople, teachers, entrepreneurs, shop owners, etc, etc, etc, etc) . It's not rocket science, it's common sense.The Billionaires keep telling everyone that THEY are the Job creators and that THEY need more and more and more and more Money so that THEY can think about creating jobs. BULL SHIT!!!! Where are those Jobs????? Please don't be Fooled or Foxed or Rushed by the Billionaires. Instead, ***THINK*** Because thinking is Patriotic! We need to elect Democratic Socialist representatives, locally, in Congress and to the Presidency who will help the middle class and fix the economy. Hooray!!! Go-o-o-o Bernie Sanders!!! We are here for you! I gave my $50 to Bernie's cause.There are about 300 million Americans. Even if only 1% of us each give Bernie $20., that's 60 Million towards winning the Whitehouse. Let's each give a little and get Big returns for the middle class!!!!! Hooray!!! Go-o-o-o Bernie Sanders!!!
It is so good to see this guy still fighting for this today. You would think he would get tired of trying to fight for something that the owners of this country laugh at, but he doesn't. He keeps on pushing back and has made some good strides. Please keep going Bernie!
Trickle Down, a speech by Senator Bernie Sanders about what the misguided Republican theory known as "trickle down" economics has done to the American middle class and to working families. In a country in which Consumer Demand makes up 70% of the economy, approximately ZERO percent of income growth since 2009 has gone to the bottom 99%. The result is income inequality: great wealth co-existing with complete wage stagnation and continuing pockets of horrendous poverty. Wages have been stagnant and unions have been struggling ever since Ronald Reagan was in office. The time has come for Congress to stop slavishly serving the 1% and go back to doing its job: serving The American People as a whole, with a special focus on the middle class, working families, and the poor. For all the rapid growth and high-flying stock market we've experienced, American can grow even faster if we invest in our people instead of starving them. America deserves a raise! #economy #economicgrowth #incomeinequality #consumer #demand #Clinton #Warren #Sanders #Election2016
callofduty102903 lol and even then it wasn't real communism. It was an oligarchy disguised as communism. I think the guy above me was right and you have no idea what you're talking about.
Michael Hiller I know what they are. Capitalism means free market and hard/smart work get rewarded. Socialism means people who don't work get free stuff from people who work. Communism is an extreme form of socialism, with a totalitarian state, so it is a type of fascism.
callofduty102903 All socialism means is that the government uses tax money to create programs that help people. That's it. Its just about creating basic safety nets to keep people off the streets during tough times, and to keep health care available to all people.
I have never seen a politician with true passionate beliefs exactly the same as my own to the tee. I had no intent on voting this election but this man has got my vote if he wins the dem. nominee. bernie for president absolutely
Ben Chesterman Why were you struggling? Do you know what tax deductions are? Maybe you hired too many employees? Maybe you need a different marketing strategy? One thing we need to be clear about though. Making $1 million isn’t a small business just to be clear. But if you are making under or around $100,000 I find it hard to see why it’s hard to pay for taxes. But I am curious. Why?
"The love of money is the root of all evil". Isn't that exactly what the greedy rich in our country exhibit. They want more and more. My question is how many houses do you need, how many yachts do you need, how many vacations can you take, how much expensive jewelry can you wear, etc. etc. etc.?????? Greed has become a sickness, a disease. Bernie is pleading for a cure.
Exactly! Now in all honesty, what business is it of mine how many houses the rich need, how many cars, vacations, etc. HOWEVER, it IS my business when having all these things depends on keeping everyone else down! FUCK THAT!!!!!!!
It is very interesting to read up on how we transitioned from a hunter/gatherer self sufficient society to the full blown capitalism we have today. Trade was born out of necessity for efficiency but as always there have always been greedy and deceitful people out there to rig the system starting with the concept of Kings. I still cannot comprehend how people bought the idea that these families were given a God given right to oppress and rule over all. I'm glad the French woke up and took them to the guillotine. People starving while Marie Antoinette was parading with all of the luxury the world had to offer. I can't believe the British still support and pay for the Windsors' expenses with public money while they have tons of wealth.
Funny. As I watch this video, I see 1012 Likes, and 10 Dislike. Or about 1% "Disliked" this video. Given the content, that sounds about right, doesn't it? Hahaha!!
+blah at the time, 1% didn't like the video. 'Coincidentally' the 1%ers won't like Bernie That was my point. Either the actual 1%ers, or their their apologists won't like the video. I thought was a blatantly obvious point. Bernie speaks reality. And 1% of folks just can't STAND that in a politician.
+blah The funny part about Bernie is, if the extreme capitalists would just put their Tea Party talking points down for just a second, they would see that they could make WAAAY more money if the dropped this "All taxes are bad" BS. But I'm sure that didn't convince you. Darn those facts and actual historical information anyways.
we can push for Tim Canova, Zephyr Teachout, Russ Feingold, Alan Grayson, Pramila Jayapal and Paul Clements and other Berniecrats for Congress. Congress controls the country.
you mean the same guy who labelled Hillary as corrupt and untrustworthy (which he was correct) then did a flipflop at the DNC supporting her and contradicting everything he stood for in complete hypocracy? How is that the sign of greatness?
he didn't flip flop in the least and actually did what was best for the american public despite how he felt about it. If you didn't notice he pushed her to raise the min wage from her 12 to 15, pushed her to drop citizens united, pushed her to push for better healthcare and much more in the platform. He only agreed to help the campaign if she'd take some of his policies and promise to push for them and he was already planning to hold her feet to the fire as he said in interviews if you paid attention instead of acting like a child and throwing a hissy fit.
she tried to get him to drop out for over a month during their talks but he refused until she agreed to give in to his demands about policy. Notice he still fought for the public on important issues while running for office...Hillary didn't.
BERNIE WE ALL OWE YOU For EVERYTHING ,especially in these crucial times,WE NEED YOU Sooo MUCH,THANK YOU Senator Sanders 4 STANDING UP FOR ALL of US, The PEOPLE LOVE&RESPECT & TRUST YOU!!! WE NEED YOU because YOU ARE an Amazing Mentor BERNIE 2020,KEEP Showin'em How2SPEAK,CALL CONGRESS &😉 CALL CSPAN 🤚💗 Medicare4ALL💗🤚
It is not an easy task for a country to get a good leader. The democratic system is infested with the "not so good leaders'" propaganda. Yet millions of people must vote for the good leader on the same day. If the good leader is selected, soon the party will be over and the people will settle back into their couches and watch what he or she will do. They will find out that it is very little. In order to change the way things are done the leader needs, not just votes on election day, but a political revolution. The people who voted must relentlessly maintain pressure in order to help the "good leader" achieve their goal. A real change will only happen if the people strongly want it and the leader leads them united to achieve their goal. Possible but not easy. We all know what the other alternative is.
If anyone wants, Here are some othrt very good left wing economists: - Joseph Stiglitz (Economics nobel prize winner) - Richard Koo- Martin Wolf (Chief Economist, Financial Times) - Ha-joon Chang (Cambridge Professor) - Steve Keen (Chief economist, Kingston uni) - Professor Richard Werner (coined the term 'QE') - Tony Greenham (Head of finance, NEF) - Charles Goodhart (Professor of banking and Finance, London School of Economics) - Mark Blyth (Economist, Brown University) - Lord Skidelsky (Economic Historian, London School of Economics) - Simon Johnson (Former IMF chief economist) - Thomas piketty - David Blanchflower (Professor, ex- member of BoE monetary committe) - Jeffrey Sachs (world-renowned development economist) - Nouriel Roubini (Economist, new york university) - Simon Wren-Lewis (Economics professor, Oxford) - Dani Rodrik (Economics Professor) - Paul Krugman, for the most part. - L. Randall Wray (Professor of Economics) - Stephanie Kelton ( Professor of Economics)- John Kay (London School of Economics)
I like the way J.K. Galbraith explained supply-side theory: "The rich don't work because they have not enough money; The poor don't work because they have too much money. If you believe that, you'll believe anything". BTW, corporate taxes contribute 0.9% of federal revenue and effective corporate tax rates (what they actually pay) is 17%, compared with 50% in 1952 and the lowest in records that go back to WWII. If their effective rate increased to 22%, the deficit would disappear..
50% is a myth let alone the 90% figure that gets thrown around if you omit the fact it included massive tax break deductions and exclusions that the taxable income was not comparable to someone's entire income
Sanders is wrong about so many things. He has a very poor understanding of economics and how a free society is suppose to work. I will grant that he has identified several problems in our economy. But his solutions are all wrong.
J Scott Upton Yeah, if you're not a libertarian you just must not understand economics. Sounds a bit like "If you're not a Christian, you're worshiping the devil". What a silly religion you have.
***** "the immorality of socialism" well as far as i am aware, it isn't socialism currently in the process of destroying the ecosystem, nor is it because of socialism that we are pushed into a state of endless war for profit. Libya was a socialist country that was doing just fine, look at it now. Libertarianism is a religion, even Ayn Rand couldn't adhere to it, running to the government to pay her medical bills.
Based on the analysis of the economy I compile every six months, it is clear that our problems are systemic and will continue whether the Congressional majority is Democrat or Republican. I suspect that few on the Left or the Right have studied economics or are consulting with economists who actually understand what is going on in our society. Sadly, there are too few within ranks of the economic discipline. Politics does indeed determine economic outcomes, and the politics of our society is dominated by the "rent-seeking" interests of individuals and groups who by virtue of the laws of the land are able to claim an increasing portion of what others produce. And, as a side-effect, a growing number of individuals are not able to produce anything although they would be very willing to do so. The measures needed to turn this situation around are well-described by several economics professors, of which I highlight only three: Mason Gaffney (emeritus, U. of California), Fred Foldvary (San Jose State University) and Joseph Stiglitz (former World Bank economist). What they all call for is dramatic changes in how government at all levels raises its revenue, moving to the taxation of the rent of land and any gains on the sale of land and land-like assets. This one systemic change will do more to correct the maldistribution of income and wealth in our society than any other measure.
There is no economic "school of thought" that teaches "trickle down economics". It is a very colorful, but inaccurate term that has no place in the discussion of economics. The REAL debate in economics is "markets vs central planning". Right now our government school system is organized under "central planning" not markets. It is expensive and doesn't do a very good job (except in those suburban neighborhoods where teachers compete for a chance to teach there because it is so desirable). If you really want to help the economy then you should support free market reforms.
Democratic Republic of Congo is a real place. It is literally Lord of the Flies. There is no appeal to emotion - or anything else. Congo effectively has no taxes, and so no government, court system, roads, or anything else - everything in Congo (all social costs/risks) is shifted into the individual. So a true Libertarian paradise.
Id quit my corrupt health care job to work for Bernie tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If he doesn’t become president we the working Americans who are the engine that runs this machine that’s just feeds the rich are DONE! We at the same time get absolutely nothing, just barely enough to scrape by and as he said it we have not been fucked this hard since 1917!!!!!
The rent-seeking shareholder nobility class is going to willingly share their profits any day now. But not today. Tomorrow is not looking good either. But someday. Pitch forks might need to be involved.
We don't want it to trickle down, we want it to pour down, and the only way to get the rich to cough up their fair share is by getting the IRS involved.
5/23/2023 THANK YOU "SENATOR SANDERS🀄💋❤💜🌟 FOR CARING & SPEAKING UP WITH INTEGRITY & COURAGE FOR "WE THE PEOPLE!!! Amen🀄🙏🙇♂️ G👑D BE WITH YOU🙏🀄🙇♂️Peace
I listen to this man and all I think is; how come there are so many people in government that really just don't give a shit about this country? People need to come together. Not support for blacks, gays, free trade, etc.But for strengthening our country, where high ideals are already in place.
We must construct a new electrical grid system. We must include in that reconstruction as many solar systems as is possible owned by the general public as part of their home.
He is speaking truth. He is like the Economic Surgeon, working on a cancer or even diagnosing one hardcore dose of chronic ill-ness! I am the 90% raking in a measly 800/mo. Not considering the fact, 3/4 goes to bills, leaving nothing behind. I hit the negative side of my account many times, with pride not to ask for help. I don't like the idea of handouts, but I do like the idea of balance and integrity/awareness.
Bernie is the most honest candidate that might have ever existed.

WHY is this speech NOT on the news on tv? This is an amazing speech from an great American citizen.
Because news is now a pawn of the same corporatocracies that want to keep things as they are now.

Not on the fence about Bernie. He has my vote, but I don't believe in private financing of campaigns.

Thindorama Taxes are not stolen money. Taxes fuel nations and keep them running. That's the way things have worked for a very long time.

I stand by what I just said. Calling taxes theft doesn't make it so.
TheTeeheeGuy but they are,it's money taken by force

+Phantomhive Obama was supposed to be the one to save America. Hasn't worked out very well, has it?
SaulOhio Yeah, and he also did not have the large quantity of plans put in place that Bernie has
nor did he have his entire political history showing that he intended to do what he says he is doing
nor did he plan to take money out of politics
and Obama is a brown-nosing apologist wheras Bernie stands up for what he thinks needs to be done, even when he is called a "damn socialist" (which Bernie was called in a political meeting in the 90s).
Phantomhive And those plans are all wrong. He has proudly assumed the label of socialist, so what are you complaining about.
Of course, THIS time, socialism is going to work. After hundreds of socialist experiments all around the world, THIS time it will be different. SOMEHOW its going to be different from Chavez's "21st Century socialism".
Taking money out of politics is not going to change anything. That is TRYING to take money out of politics isn't going to change anything. The cronyism and corruption is not a product of capitalism or economic inequality, but of the mixed economy. If government officials have power over the economy, if they have the power of life and death over businessmen, businessmen will do what they have to to get power over government, both out of self-defense, and to take advantage of government power for themselves. What is needed is a separation of economic and state the same way we have a separation of church and state.
SaulOhio Fine, you can live happily in your fantasy and I will live happily in mine.
And if he becomes president, we can see whose happy little fantasy becomes real.
Be wary of Right Wing Think Tank propaganda that saturates the internet distracting you away from WHAT SANDERS is talking about in this awesome speech.
#Bernie2016 - Bernie - you are my spirit animal. Please keep doing what you are doing - we need you more than you can imagine.
Bernie2024 😭
I think that CHART that Senator Sanders used in this speech should be put on the front pages of all of the newspapers in the United States and discussed on CNN and Fox and CNBC and ABC and CBS and public television----and also on David Letterman's and Bill Maher's comedy/sex/and politics programs that are so popular.
You know that this speech is part of the Congressional Record and Senator Sanders leaves the legacy of TRUTH in the Record for future generations.
Trickle down my a---. The well-heeled could care less if thier money trickles down to you folks! Just as long as they find enough suckers to believe that! Bernie 2016!
Filmaker25 __ "Tinkle' down.... that is 'Tinkle'.
Exactly
You believe in trickle down economics and you don't even know it. You just want the government doing the trickling.
I am voting for this man.
Bernie is an awesome Senator, and I am glad he is one of the very few in Washington that represents the citizens!
Trolls will troll. The fact that I see so many trolls on Bernie's videos now is a huge step forward in his media campaign. It's working Bernie, keep it up. Bernie speaks the truth and backs it up with his voting record. He is the only politician in the race that can do that. Sanders/Warren 2016.
Spot on Bernie. Spot on. We got screwed. I got screwed, literally, to keep my job. And subsequently my family got screwed, too. We are still reeling from it and struggling to recover. I'm one of the middle class you are talking about. I somehow managed to hang on to my home but I had purchased the cheapest house in my town - a little 1948 war cottage on a postage stamp of a lot. There are three families living in my 900 SF cottage plus detached garage. I had people sleeping on my couch and living in tents pitched in my yard during that time. It was bad. Really bad. And all the young adults that came of age during this time. It was horrible for them. Jobless, lost, aimless, fed a pile of lies their whole lives being told if they just did good in elementary school, so they could do good in high school, so they could get into college, then they would automatically get a great job and be able to buy a home, a car, a big screen TV and live happily ever after! BS! Ha ha ha. Poor kids. They were not prepared for THIS reality AT ALL!!! How did I not commit suicide? Too many people depending on me. I HAD to stay strong. And how do I stay relatively happy? Cuz I THINK THERE IS KARMA!!! I don't have to worry about those greedy, predatorial fucks becuz I believe the universe will take care of them for me. This I rest assured on. I believe this life is but a small yet consequential blip in the big scheme of things so I'm not worried that it might not happen NOW becuz it WILL happen in its own time. I go to the next big adventure with a clean conscience.
*Give 'Em Hell, Bernie!!!*
You have my vote!
+TheDajamster *Hell yeah!*
We need Bernie Sanders in the Whitehouse
The only one telling the truth. I hope you run, Sen. Sanders.
aking as an outsider with an interest in US politics and society (I am English - have been all my life), it seems to me that the voters hardly ever get what they voted for. Perhaps, now, times have changed! Mr Sanders seems like the breath of fresh air that USA has needed for a long. long time. I for one wish him well.
John Benton __Note: America became the richest country in the history of world because of Roosavelt's socialist policies! We don't need Tax Cuts for Billionaires and multi-national corporations____ We_Need_JOBS!!!___ FACT: Billionaires and Giant Corporations are NOT the primary job creators; when billionaires & Giant Corporations get more money, only a tiny, tiny bit goes back into the American economy (Q: How many homes, cars, meals, services, etc. can each billionaire buy?__ A: not so many). Billionaires & Giant Corporations don't create jobs with their money, instead they hide their money in off shore accounts, search for tax shelters by moving factories off shore to low wage countries, and then gamble with that money for profits on wall street, to make more Money!!!__not jobs.***THE REAL JOB CREATORS are the poor and the middle class: when poor and middle class families get more money, they **SPEND it** in the local economy. When money is spent in the local economy on homes, cars, goods, food, services, etc, etc, etc, it creates **PAYCHECKS**. Paychecks in the hands of consumers, creates **DEMAND**, demand creates...
**** J - O - B - S ! ! ! ! ! **** Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!!!!To create JOBS, we need to eliminate corporate welfare and subsidies, eliminate excessive tax breaks to billionaires & Giant Corporations, and then use THAT MONEY to raise the minimum wage to get that money into the hands of THE REAL JOB CREATORS!!!!!. This will get poor people off of welfare, and get them working, turning them into **CUSTOMERS** and supporting the small local business' that are owned by us Middle Class people (i.e.; plumbers, dentists, mechanics, painters, contractors, computer techs, truck drivers, salespeople, teachers, entrepreneurs, shop owners, etc, etc, etc, etc) . It's not rocket science, it's common sense.The Billionaires keep telling everyone that THEY are the Job creators and that THEY need more and more and more and more Money so that THEY can think about creating jobs. BULL SHIT!!!! Where are those Jobs?????
Please don't be Fooled or Foxed or Rushed by the Billionaires. Instead, ***THINK*** Because thinking is Patriotic! We need to elect Democratic Socialist representatives, locally, in Congress and to the Presidency who will help the middle class and fix the economy. Hooray!!! Go-o-o-o Bernie Sanders!!! We are here for you! I gave my $50 to Bernie's cause.There are about 300 million Americans. Even if only 1% of us each give Bernie $20., that's 60 Million towards winning the Whitehouse. Let's each give a little and get Big returns for the middle class!!!!! Hooray!!! Go-o-o-o Bernie Sanders!!!
Sounds obvious when you put it like that, but there is also the theory of 'trickle down'. Silly theory really.
It is so good to see this guy still fighting for this today. You would think he would get tired of trying to fight for something that the owners of this country laugh at, but he doesn't. He keeps on pushing back and has made some good strides. Please keep going Bernie!
Back to FDR economics 1.1.
At last.
The man speaks the truth 🤷🏻♂️
Bernie should have dropped the Mic after he was done
Sam Lee considering im 6hrs from an MBA and have an amazing job, id guess you're jelly
Finally someone who speaks for the people and dares to defy the interest of the rich.
This man would do wonders for our country.
I love Bernie Sanders. Intellect combined with heart = a great President. I hope he runs.
this guy get so angry about the BS in America, he gets my vote!
Only 2016 candidate who is honest and talking about the serious issues we face. Feel the Bern!
Trickle Down, a speech by Senator Bernie Sanders about what the misguided Republican theory known as "trickle down" economics has done to the American middle class and to working families.
In a country in which Consumer Demand makes up 70% of the economy, approximately ZERO percent of income growth since 2009 has gone to the bottom 99%. The result is income inequality: great wealth co-existing with complete wage stagnation and continuing pockets of horrendous poverty.
Wages have been stagnant and unions have been struggling ever since Ronald Reagan was in office.
The time has come for Congress to stop slavishly serving the 1% and go back to doing its job: serving The American People as a whole, with a special focus on the middle class, working families, and the poor.
For all the rapid growth and high-flying stock market we've experienced, American can grow even faster if we invest in our people instead of starving them.
America deserves a raise!
#economy #economicgrowth #incomeinequality #consumer #demand #Clinton #Warren #Sanders #Election2016
He's awesome! It would be awesome for the U.S. if he would run!
That last chart is so damning of Trickle Down Economics that I don't how any turd Republican can continue to shill for it.
sojutime I don't get how any turd Democrat can continue practicing socialism despite the failed history in Russia.
callofduty102903 lol and even then it wasn't real communism. It was an oligarchy disguised as communism. I think the guy above me was right and you have no idea what you're talking about.
callofduty102903 Do you even know what socialism, communism, fascism, and capitalism even mean? Obviously not.
Michael Hiller
I know what they are. Capitalism means free market and hard/smart work get rewarded. Socialism means people who don't work get free stuff from people who work. Communism is an extreme form of socialism, with a totalitarian state, so it is a type of fascism.
callofduty102903 All socialism means is that the government uses tax money to create programs that help people. That's it. Its just about creating basic safety nets to keep people off the streets during tough times, and to keep health care available to all people.
this is brilliant. i love his sarcasm.
You have my vote if you run for President, Sen. Sanders.
Thank you for continuing to speak about the egregious decimation of the middle class of this country. Bernie2020!
I have never seen a politician with true passionate beliefs exactly the same as my own to the tee. I had no intent on voting this election but this man has got my vote if he wins the dem. nominee.
bernie for president absolutely
Bernie, we need you buddy. I am fighting everyday and I won't stop!
The irony when 1% of the likes are dislikes.
dislike from me a small business owner struggling this last decade
Ben Chesterman Why were you struggling? Do you know what tax deductions are? Maybe you hired too many employees? Maybe you need a different marketing strategy? One thing we need to be clear about though. Making $1 million isn’t a small business just to be clear. But if you are making under or around $100,000 I find it hard to see why it’s hard to pay for taxes. But I am curious. Why?
@@electric6877
And he never answered lol...
"The love of money is the root of all evil". Isn't that exactly what the greedy rich in our country exhibit. They want more and more. My question is how many houses do you need, how many yachts do you need, how many vacations can you take, how much expensive jewelry can you wear, etc. etc. etc.?????? Greed has become a sickness, a disease. Bernie is pleading for a cure.
+ann landers
Indeed
Similar to those hoarders that I see on TV
LOL
Exactly! Now in all honesty, what business is it of mine how many houses the rich need, how many cars, vacations, etc. HOWEVER, it IS my business when having all these things depends on keeping everyone else down!
FUCK THAT!!!!!!!
Alex Espinosa its not how much you gave, its how greedy and crooked ways your getting all the
Gary bigie its not how much you have, its how greedy and crooked your getting the money.
It is very interesting to read up on how we transitioned from a hunter/gatherer self sufficient society to the full blown capitalism we have today. Trade was born out of necessity for efficiency but as always there have always been greedy and deceitful people out there to rig the system starting with the concept of Kings. I still cannot comprehend how people bought the idea that these families were given a God given right to oppress and rule over all. I'm glad the French woke up and took them to the guillotine. People starving while Marie Antoinette was parading with all of the luxury the world had to offer. I can't believe the British still support and pay for the Windsors' expenses with public money while they have tons of wealth.
Funny. As I watch this video, I see 1012 Likes, and 10 Dislike. Or about 1% "Disliked" this video. Given the content, that sounds about right, doesn't it? Hahaha!!
+Miradart Shows there are 1012 idiots.
+blah at the time, 1% didn't like the video. 'Coincidentally' the 1%ers won't like Bernie That was my point. Either the actual 1%ers, or their their apologists won't like the video. I thought was a blatantly obvious point.
Bernie speaks reality. And 1% of folks just can't STAND that in a politician.
bernie talks shit and the only way his "plans" would ever work is to steal everyones money and that would last about a year.
+blah The funny part about Bernie is, if the extreme capitalists would just put their Tea Party talking points down for just a second, they would see that they could make WAAAY more money if the dropped this "All taxes are bad" BS. But I'm sure that didn't convince you. Darn those facts and actual historical information anyways.
Miradart Please explain how people make more money giving it to socialist democrat thieves.
Wow, what an awesome speech, can't wait to see you live tomorrow night in St Paul!!!
Bernie>Hilary. I could kiss this man, and I'm a republican! Let's give Bernie a chance, this man needs to be president.
I love this man!
America missed out on the opportunity of voting a great human being into office. We will pay for being in the wrong side of history.
we can push for Tim Canova, Zephyr Teachout, Russ Feingold, Alan Grayson, Pramila Jayapal and Paul Clements and other Berniecrats for Congress. Congress controls the country.
you mean the same guy who labelled Hillary as corrupt and untrustworthy (which he was correct) then did a flipflop at the DNC supporting her and contradicting everything he stood for in complete hypocracy? How is that the sign of greatness?
he didn't flip flop in the least and actually did what was best for the american public despite how he felt about it. If you didn't notice he pushed her to raise the min wage from her 12 to 15, pushed her to drop citizens united, pushed her to push for better healthcare and much more in the platform. He only agreed to help the campaign if she'd take some of his policies and promise to push for them and he was already planning to hold her feet to the fire as he said in interviews if you paid attention instead of acting like a child and throwing a hissy fit.
she tried to get him to drop out for over a month during their talks but he refused until she agreed to give in to his demands about policy. Notice he still fought for the public on important issues while running for office...Hillary didn't.
Ya like Castrating Castro. I can sit here and count the lies this commie makes.
Truth stands upright even before itself.
Talking about the real issues to people with honesty and before it benefited them in the race
BERNIE WE ALL OWE YOU For EVERYTHING ,especially in these crucial times,WE NEED YOU Sooo MUCH,THANK YOU Senator Sanders 4 STANDING UP FOR ALL of US, The PEOPLE LOVE&RESPECT & TRUST YOU!!! WE NEED YOU because YOU ARE an Amazing Mentor BERNIE 2020,KEEP Showin'em How2SPEAK,CALL CONGRESS &😉 CALL CSPAN 🤚💗 Medicare4ALL💗🤚
this needs to be shared everywhere
We missed our chance and ignored Ross Perot and "that giant sucking sound".
If we ignore Bernie we may well NEVER get a chance again!
That girl next to sanders looks like she's having a personal crisis lol.
Alexander Gillespie funny
Alex Gillespie Good one.
Hahaha. Well noticed
Alex Gillespie Bad hair day meets, "Gotta pee but don't want to be rude - How long is he gonna talk?"
she must be a republican supporter
Bernie Sanders have my vote. Free College Yay.
Everyone should see this, especially starting at 26:30 #feelthebern
Now Canada has a good leader and I hope that in a year the US will do the same. Fight for you rights good people.
It is not an easy task for a country to get a good leader. The democratic system is infested with the "not so good leaders'" propaganda. Yet millions of people must vote for the good leader on the same day.
If the good leader is selected, soon the party will be over and the people will settle back into their couches and watch what he or she will do. They will find out that it is very little. In order to change the way things are done the leader needs, not just votes on election day, but a political revolution. The people who voted must relentlessly maintain pressure in order to help the "good leader" achieve their goal. A real change will only happen if the people strongly want it and the leader leads them united to achieve their goal. Possible but not easy. We all know what the other alternative is.
If anyone wants, Here are some othrt very good left wing economists: - Joseph Stiglitz (Economics nobel prize winner) - Richard Koo- Martin Wolf (Chief Economist, Financial Times) - Ha-joon Chang (Cambridge Professor) - Steve Keen (Chief economist, Kingston uni) - Professor Richard Werner (coined the term 'QE') - Tony Greenham (Head of finance, NEF) - Charles Goodhart (Professor of banking and Finance, London School of Economics) - Mark Blyth (Economist, Brown University) - Lord Skidelsky (Economic Historian, London School of Economics) - Simon Johnson (Former IMF chief economist) - Thomas piketty - David Blanchflower (Professor, ex- member of BoE monetary committe) - Jeffrey Sachs (world-renowned development economist) - Nouriel Roubini (Economist, new york university) - Simon Wren-Lewis (Economics professor, Oxford) - Dani Rodrik (Economics Professor) - Paul Krugman, for the most part. - L. Randall Wray (Professor of Economics) - Stephanie Kelton ( Professor of Economics)- John Kay (London School of Economics)
Thank you for posting this.
Md Ashfaqul Islam well, any economist that knows how to do math is left wing
I like the way J.K. Galbraith explained supply-side theory: "The rich don't work because they have not enough money; The poor don't work because they have too much money. If you believe that, you'll believe anything".
BTW, corporate taxes contribute 0.9% of federal revenue and effective corporate tax rates (what they actually pay) is 17%, compared with 50% in 1952 and the lowest in records that go back to WWII. If their effective rate increased to 22%, the deficit would disappear..
WilliamOccamensis great quote. How do you calculate a 5% increase in corporate tax that's 0.9% of revenue wiping out the deficit?
50% is a myth let alone the 90% figure that gets thrown around if you omit the fact it included massive tax break deductions and exclusions that the taxable income was not comparable to someone's entire income
That was boss.
Thank you for running Bernie!
Bernie for President
Sanders/Gabbard 2020. Blessed Be
I am a proponent of the trickle up theory.
I don't see any libertarians arguing against this video, they must not like facts.
Sanders is wrong about so many things. He has a very poor understanding of economics and how a free society is suppose to work. I will grant that he has identified several problems in our economy. But his solutions are all wrong.
J Scott Upton Yeah, if you're not a libertarian you just must not understand economics. Sounds a bit like "If you're not a Christian, you're worshiping the devil". What a silly religion you have.
***** "the immorality of socialism" well as far as i am aware, it isn't socialism currently in the process of destroying the ecosystem, nor is it because of socialism that we are pushed into a state of endless war for profit. Libya was a socialist country that was doing just fine, look at it now.
Libertarianism is a religion, even Ayn Rand couldn't adhere to it, running to the government to pay her medical bills.
We don't argue against non arguments. Trickle down isn't even a school of thought, its just a leftist buzz word.
Here's a non argument for you, Donald Trump is the next President. And America will soon see trickle down economics dry up.
Bernie is the greatest.
Based on the analysis of the economy I compile every six months, it is clear that our problems are systemic and will continue whether the Congressional majority is Democrat or Republican. I suspect that few on the Left or the Right have studied economics or are consulting with economists who actually understand what is going on in our society. Sadly, there are too few within ranks of the economic discipline. Politics does indeed determine economic outcomes, and the politics of our society is dominated by the "rent-seeking" interests of individuals and groups who by virtue of the laws of the land are able to claim an increasing portion of what others produce. And, as a side-effect, a growing number of individuals are not able to produce anything although they would be very willing to do so. The measures needed to turn this situation around are well-described by several economics professors, of which I highlight only three: Mason Gaffney (emeritus, U. of California), Fred Foldvary (San Jose State University) and Joseph Stiglitz (former World Bank economist). What they all call for is dramatic changes in how government at all levels raises its revenue, moving to the taxation of the rent of land and any gains on the sale of land and land-like assets. This one systemic change will do more to correct the maldistribution of income and wealth in our society than any other measure.
These are all reasons why we need you to run again in 2020 Bernie!
There is no economic "school of thought" that teaches "trickle down economics". It is a very colorful, but inaccurate term that has no place in the discussion of economics. The REAL debate in economics is "markets vs central planning". Right now our government school system is organized under "central planning" not markets. It is expensive and doesn't do a very good job (except in those suburban neighborhoods where teachers compete for a chance to teach there because it is so desirable). If you really want to help the economy then you should support free market reforms.
How just how is this man not going to be the next president? We should be outraged at the prospects we have now.
Bernie 2020
Mr Sanders is the only one I've heard speak truth.
Democratic Republic of Congo is a real place. It is literally Lord of the Flies. There is no appeal to emotion - or anything else. Congo effectively has no taxes, and so no government, court system, roads, or anything else - everything in Congo (all social costs/risks) is shifted into the individual. So a true Libertarian paradise.
Trickle Down always has been, and will always be exactly what it sounds like it is. Sanders 2016!
Id quit my corrupt health care job to work for Bernie tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If he doesn’t become president we the working Americans who are the engine that runs this machine that’s just feeds the rich are DONE! We at the same time get absolutely nothing, just barely enough to scrape by and as he said it we have not been fucked this hard since 1917!!!!!
The rent-seeking shareholder nobility class is going to willingly share their profits any day now. But not today. Tomorrow is not looking good either. But someday. Pitch forks might need to be involved.
We don't want it to trickle down, we want it to pour down, and the only way to get the rich to cough up their fair share is by getting the IRS involved.
We need Bernie!! #StillSanders

THANK YOU
"SENATOR SANDERS🀄💋❤💜🌟 FOR CARING & SPEAKING UP WITH INTEGRITY & COURAGE FOR "WE THE PEOPLE!!! Amen🀄🙏🙇♂️
G👑D BE WITH YOU🙏🀄🙇♂️Peace
I listen to this man and all I think is; how come there are so many people in government that really just don't give a shit about this country? People need to come together. Not support for blacks, gays, free trade, etc.But for strengthening our country, where high ideals are already in place.
you got my vote Bernie. i feel the the bern ;)
He hasn't changed 1%. BERNIE 2020
We needed a Bernie presidency 💙
Amen! But be skeptical of socialism.
The corporate media doesn't want you to see this. Bernie Sanders 2016!
He was right about everything.
We must construct a new electrical grid system. We must include in that reconstruction as many solar systems as is possible owned by the general public as part of their home.
He is speaking truth. He is like the Economic Surgeon, working on a cancer or even diagnosing one hardcore dose of chronic ill-ness! I am the 90% raking in a measly 800/mo. Not considering the fact, 3/4 goes to bills, leaving nothing behind. I hit the negative side of my account many times, with pride not to ask for help. I don't like the idea of handouts, but I do like the idea of balance and integrity/awareness.
Bernie for PRESIDENT!!
Makes me wonder who the 69 dislikes are ??? Trump's immediate family plus the Koch Brothers? lmao
great speech
Stop them Bernie.
I think that Bernie Sanders' hairdo is going to set a fashion trend
Little did Mr Sanders know, that 6 years later, 2021, "nothing" has changed, and we added a "Pandemic" on top of the wealth gap.
monopolizing in american society needs to be taken care of if you want more stable economic structuring
Under a President Trump this trickle is going to dry up. Hope America likes drinking sand.
Great video go Bernie
Stephanie Kelton on the right. This will be a great few years for MMT.
Lift the cap on taxable income so millionaires can contribute to the Social Security trust fund.
I really like this guy and I'm a Aussie
