“I'm not running for president because I fantasized about being president. I am running for President because I am an American and a parent, and I can see the country we are leaving for our children and it is not something I am willing to accept.” -Andrew Yang
Really I don't give a damn any Democrat that want to steal cheat and destroy America is wrong. But when it's time for them to give up there seats they will do anything to keep it. Just because you got the power to do anything. Well let me tell you this Mr. Jason you don't see what I see. And what I see is a lot's of Democrats and including Yeng is in Congress for the money and not for the American people and that's how it is. Got it. So don't say a damn thing to me until you get your damn brain check out. And why you at it pick up a history book and read it. But until now I'm going to block you out my mind.
I urge you to listen to a long from interview with Yang like the Joe Rogan podcast. Your concerns with Yang will all be answered there. I’m telling you this guy is the real deal, his ideas need more than a 30 seconds sound bytes to explain. I hope you at least are open to hearing the guy out. 👍🏻
@Dalton Taylor Fair point, but also this is just a surface level interview to introduce people to Yang's ideas, and those things you're talking about tend to be more deep-dive style topics included in longer interviews, so I don't really mind that they weren't there.
I am a former Donald Trump supporter voting for Andrew Yang. Changed my registration from Republican to Democrat just so I can vote for him in the primary.
As much as I love Seth he hasn’t been taking Andrew Yang seriously. He’s more than just “fresh ideas”, he is the future of politics if we want progress. “It’s not left, it’s not right, it’s forward” - Andrew Yang
@@Azariven Exactly. Seth in my opinion went far above and beyond the key sticking points of Yang's campaign by highlighting things other outlets haven't, things like State of the Union revamps, and his other less-known proposals. I don't feel we can confidently say that Seth isn't taking Yang seriously.
I agree.. even on this interview I sense Seth "tiptoeing" around.. while I BELEIVE Yang's candidacy brought out a bold philosophical, methodological, and fundametal change that's longoverdue for our system; government, our law, voting process, schools... in all areas we need to EVOLVE. All of these are set over hundres of years ago
Jackie Perez yeah but i think they’re gonna wear themselves out at this rate, before they even get to the White House. We should focus on choosing a healthy candidate, one that’s capable of dealing with the long road ahead; both physically and mentally! Just food for thought.
@Fagus Grandifolia Nope. We should not see Yang as a threat. He's a progressive ally we absolutely need in the Bernie's political revolution. Bernie is not HRC. He's not entitled to the nomination. He's working his ass off for it. Being a Bernie bro and #YangGang member are not mutually exclusive. There are 15 other neolibs in the race. Let's focus our ire on them rather than each other
@@vampire_workday I think he was referring to the fact that he's the one pushing for the most reform in ways that aren't just worthless government programs to distract the people.
@@vampire_workday yeah, but its one thing to have head knowledge and another to actually know and care to actually apply it. imo yang isnt even that intelligent, he is simply standing on the platform that makes sense. we got problem, we have solution. lets apply solution to problem. while other candidates can also say the same problem and swing their intellect by saying things that confuse people like trade policy and blah blah blah.
@@peacebestillgaming3073 Yang isn't that intelligent? LMAO He had a 1300 SAT score at 13, 1400 at 14, and over 1500 at age 15. We definitely need to the smart kid to run the country! #yanggang
Really Now yangs good but if you go past his UBI and look through he’s more of a libertarian. If you know what your talking about Bernie is the best option with his record

1k a month is nothing. your parents probably pay your bills. the qay in which this can increase inflation.. there's no way this thing happens and if it did you wouldnt tell the difference.
@@raftlack4326 UBI passed twice in the early 70's and we'd have it now if they hadn't take too long to finalize it. The way it's planned won't cause inflation but more likely deflation as the economic problems we have now that cause inflation will be taken care of.
It's why he's suddenly getting all this media coverage. Maybe partially because he called out MSNBC for essentially blacking him out, but.... His progress can no longer be ignored when he beats Kamala Harris in her own state.
He has no chance. Polling at 3.7% average and the vast majority of American's aren't going to understand the need for UBI in the coming decades until it's too late and an economic crash has already happened. Glad he's raising awareness at least but he has essentially no chance of being nominated.
@@JohnSmith-zn1oh He's said before that it's essentially a win-win for him that he's receiving as much attention as he is and that he's being taken seriously now that he's threatening Kamala. Paraphrasing him, "I either become president or the President is gonna look a lot like me" - UBI becomes a toothpaste-out-of-the-tube idea that you can't quash once it gains traction.
Y’all he really has a point. There’s been soooo many new self check out machines at Walmart and most stores in the last three years. We’re witnessing a prediction of the future through Andrew Yang. I’m not a supporter but I am listening and if he makes it best believe he has my vote.
Google Andrew Yang. He has more than 100+ common sense policies and is way more than just the UBI guy. I would vote for him even if the Freedom Dividend was taken off the table. Excited about his candidacy.
Exactly, 148 policies in total I think. The candidate with the most policies among ALL candidates in detail on his Yang2020 website & they keep branding him as a single policy candidate. SMH
Why do you like him? I like his practical approach and transparency. I think the powerpoint idea will bring the correct data to the conversation. Politicians often cite statistics when its convenient. But yang will regularly report statistics that reflect human well being at the state of the union.
It's interesting hearing people say Yang's plan takes away from "being an American", because "Americans work for their success, they don't take handouts" yet a majority of Americans struggle while trying their hardest for a system that is built against them. 1000/month is not enough for anyone to stop working and that's a fact, but it's enough to help out millions of people who legitimately need it. #Yang2020
Wholeheartedly agree. It's not about taking away the "hardworking spirit", but more about using our resources wisely and more efficiently, put that back into the system and make things even better.
Don Fazy the current national poverty line for a household of 2 adults and 2 children is around $25,000 a year. So $1000/month for both adults would equal $24,000 a year for them and provide them a floor of which to work off of in which they can pay for goods and necessities to support their family, while still having enough room to move upwards economically.
The SOTU topic is underrated imo. Yang has been through investor meetings, company meetings, etc. His ability to get the organization and even the country up to speed on the success rate of the country will be amazing to watch. No one can compete with that. No one else on the stage has had organizational level experience the way he has. The main difference is that he's started things from scratch.
yeah, thats what i try to tell people. we need to instill these things now, so we're better off later. instead of waiting to hit rock bottom before pulling ourselves out.
Im still shocked that Yang videos are majority positive comments. This is something that drew me to him as well. The Yanggang is so positive and hopeful. Very refreshing!
Comment boards are 99%-100% positive in any Yang video. We are not trolls, not mean, not looking for fights. We are hopeful, helpful, and here to win fair.
Biden, kamala and unfortunately bernie supports are attacking him viciously now that he is a threat. Trump supporters are also starting to notice him. Yang is not going to win. Too many things against him. His race is going to come in factor too. Asian men don't have good and strong reputation in the west thanks to media including so called liberal media.
@@DoktreSam And most likely a wage slave. I don't understand the appeal. Trump's not a "generous to the poor and middle class" billionaire like say Bill Gates. He just wants them to buy his silly red hats to add to his coffers. Trump is addicted to money and not progress. He is very unlike Musk and others with projects to extend human accomplishments. He is just a big, greedy resource hoarding addict in the way of progress!
Everyone should donate as an investment, even one dollar will grow into $12000 a year!! a much better return than wall street, or think of it as a lotto where everyone wins!
His net worth is over a million, but not much more than that. He spent the last 7 years running a non-profit and drawing a modest paycheck, meant NOT to get filthy rich, but to help startup businesses grow in the cities all around America that entrepreneurs usually avoid. This guy has been walking the walk behind his vision for a long time.
keco185 I mean I think Pete actually has the lowest net worth but with the amount of billionaires he surrounds himself with you’d think otherwise. Yang is the best candidate though

@@user-zx4vj6ub8r not if you use money that already exists which is what Yang wants to do. He wants to place a tax (a VAT) that would affect massive companies like Amazon that have managed to pay little to 0 income tax for one (Amazon paid 0 in 2018). that's combined with a tax on carbon, savings on programs that will be less necessary once the FD is put in place, as well as overlap with govt. programs that already exist such as welfare and food stamps, a program like this would be doable.

This really is the future! When jobs disappear to automation, there's these people saying "there will always be new jobs". Obviously this will not work forever. Is it really fair that companies who previously needed to employ 100 employees and now can employ 10 because of automation will keep their profit for themselves? Of course not! It's only reasonable that everyone gets their fair share of the economy, and then we can all share the jobs left to do. Work less, having better lives. As a europeean I really hope this idea catches on in Europe as well soon!
That’s the ideal way to live. Hopefully we don’t continue to let these super obvious scheme bots at the top of the pyramid continue to blast us in our collective asses. 🤷🏽♂️
frbo9002 - "When jobs disappear due to automation..." Read Kurt Vonnegut's Player Piano, which predicted that back in 1952. From Wikipedia: "It depicts a dystopia of automation, describing the negative impact it can have on quality of life. The story takes place in a near-future society that is almost totally mechanized, eliminating the need for human laborers. The widespread mechanization creates conflict between the wealthy upper class, the engineers and managers, who keep society running, and the lower class, whose skills and purpose in society have been replaced by machines. "
Many people discuss the idea of UBI under an ethical spectrum, and while it isn't incorrect, I believe it's far more effective to discuss it under a practical spectrum. Not a single minimally-informed human being would deny that automation is on the rise, and that more and more human jobs will disappear as it grows and evolves. If you take this assumption to its logical endpoint, eventually most, if not all, human jobs will be automated, meaning most, if not all, humans will be non-productive and, by extension, non-consuming (since currently, productiveness = money = consumption). Now ask yourself: what good is having an automated factory that can create thousands of products in minutes if only a handful of people worldwide can afford them? It breaks offer and demand, which breaks our whole capitalist economic system.
@@ftw5064 -- UBI is so much better than this current trickle down economy. This trickle down economy has always assumed the rich would redistribute wealth by creating more jobs. That just isn't happening. There is another business principle that isn't working today because of the rich. The market place runs because people buy things therefore putting money back into the market place. Rich people really don't spend much. Rich people invest but a majority of their money is safely locked away. UBI will give the population spending power. That $1000 a month won't just get thrown in savings accounts. That $1000 a month will go directly back into the market place. UBI is a very good step away from trickle down economics. In the last 30 years CEOs have increased their salaries over 1200% while the average citizens salaries have increased incrementally. Money is sticking not trickling.
Biden was trying say to something about automation taking jobs etc, very poorly. just ideas ripped off from Andrew. th-cam.com/video/DviRAsIpB-M/w-d-xo.html
Biden needs to give credit to Yang about automation, he doesn't really even understand the problem or how to deal with it. Buttigieg was basically copying Yang's talking points about redfining what we should measure, that we need to redefine what "work" is and that UBI is working in Stockton CA.. but then he laughed at Yang during debates. None of them have any real bright ideas or solutions except Yang.
When we the people get behind Andrew Yang and make him President the middle class will come back and we will not be divided anymore. Andrew Yang is a Real American for All Americans.
I'm one of them. Life long Conservative, proud Texan, Christian. Yang and I disagree on Firearms, and Abortion naturally. But he's still got my vote, as he's the only one that's actually recognized where we're all headed in terms of Automation. So on the two issues we disagree on, he gets the finger as I call him an asshole.... But, on everything else, he gets a pat on the back. You know, the way we USED to be here in the U.S.A. We differ, sure. But we're all Americans and should hear each other out. No more hatred, I'm done with it.
Short but good interview! Fair questions and felt like Yang was taken more seriously than in some previous interviews, although this of course is a “comedy show”
Late Night appearances are definitely too short and are not much more than a commercial to introduce him to the public. If you are interested, you need to go deeper and TH-cam Andrew Yang for a better sense of who he is.
That's just how Seth treats everyone. I've honestly never seen a bad interview. He's such a professional. I'd have been shocked if he hadn't treated Yang well.
@@calvinhoward3808 I have no idea how they came up with 3 Trillion dollars to fund this. www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/US# According to this census.gov website above, the population estimate of 2018 is about 71.5% are 18+ out of 327 million people. 71.5% is roughly 234 million. If each of the 234 million people gets $1000, it's about $324 billion dollars, nowhere near 3 trillion. Am I missing something? Not to mention, this is not yet accounted for people who gets better government aids and want to opt out of UBI (or anyone wants to opt out for whatever reason they have). Andrew did say it's an opt-in. Am I missing something?
@ThatGuyOnTheInternet you could cut SS in half, but you couldn't remove it. As it is, the $18,000/yr they get, with all the bills they have, gives a horrible life if the elderly don't have family or significant savings to help. $12,000/yr would make them homeless and without healthcare. But it is a good point most people neglect with their "3 trillion" . It would eliminate 1.5T from the hundreds of bureaucratic programs it replaces. And the funding side starts balancing even more simply due to economic growth and offset from rich people who will pay the $12,000 back in taxes.
@@oneroneen pretty much. My tribe is about the ethical and practical need for wealth distribution. not robbing the poor to pay the rich and placate the middleclass i.e. the UBI scam
When I first found out about yang on an interview I had watched, I realized just how bad this country has gotten, but instead of feeling dread, I felt hope that someone was actually calling out the issues and could help fix America not just for the poor and the abused, but for everyone living in it. Andrew Yang has made me think harder and think about politics whereas before I couldnt care less about who would win in 2020
Miles Jones Incorrect, it will be based on money that’s already circulating, inflation is based on changes in money supply. At the most 15% but competition & automation will keep prices reasonable or even lower.
@Miles Jones When the bakery making bread use automation and AI the price of bread will be way way below your $100 price tag. The government will not print additional money so its not inflationary. The money that the Bezos et al stashed in the bank rotting - the citizen will get dividend/share that will be evenly distributed and circulated back to the economy to generate more economic activities. Now that's transformative.
@Miles Jones Andrew Yang already understands this and won't be printing money to implement the FREEDOM DIVIDEND: th-cam.com/video/vpn7XoaeZdc/w-d-xo.html
He's also got the most comprehensive list of policies to back it up! I'd suggest visiting his website and watching his Joe Rogan interview if you want more
@One Of Those Guys I am going a different direction either way, but what you're doing is not helpful. Yang is a viable, impressive candidate with a vision, which is something I applaud. Telling me "xy is better" is going to do nothing but create silly resentment because essentially, you're telling me what to do or think. Just stop it. I respect your choice as much as I respect Yang supporters.
One Of Those Guys I love Bernie but the $15 min wage will only increase the incentive to automate and unemploy... most economists see UBI as the long-term solution for an automated world
One Of Those Guys wow fear mongering is a sure way to push people completely off from a candidate you are vouching for. Don’t use logical fallacies like that and maybe people will consider your POV.
@One Of Those Guys oh we don't have the hierarchy now? 1% ring a bell? this plan is interim help. we can figure out how to stave off hierarchies in the meantime. also maybe how to harness or curb full blown AI "useless eaters" poss issues.
Anyone who recieves Social Security, SSDI or Veterans Disability, will also get UBI. UBI will also stack with housing assistance and people on Medicaid will stay on Medicaid until they can be transitioned to Medicare 4 All. Scott Santens has a great article outlining this.
K Tay uhhh unless I was misinformed if you receive social security etc, you get UBI but whatever you get now is deducted from the 1000. Yang has said if you like what you’re getting now, you don’t have to opt in to UBI.

I'm already on the YangGang train, but I'm excited to hear we'll be getting a PowerPoint presentation at every state of the union on the real situation of our country and not just some made up numbers that don't accurately represent our situation.
Yang will be truthful. He will say This is where we are Show the statistics And this is where we want to be Policies discussed. Following year Hey guy, this is where we were, this is where we are. And the things we tried, Some worked, some didn't work. By doing policy a, it changed something by 5% By doing that, it changed that by 7% Ect... Math and science
This guy actually makes sense. He just spent 5 minutes on a late night show talking real policy instead of trying to seem cool like other candidates. Between this and Warren’s interview with Colbert the other day where she refused to answer questions straight I definitely choose Andrew Yang.
@@kimvansandt2906 Heck, it would be life changing for the vast majority of Americans. Imagine completely erasing or reducing your rent every month to 60-70% of what you were paying? Thats like having an extra payheck of disposable income every month. Thats: Pay off all your debt money. Thats: Go back to school money. Thats; Leave your crappy job that you feel trapped in money. Thats; Actually start saving for retirement money Thats buying a new car and being able to play the monthly payments or maybe just paying for it completely in cash. The vast majority of the reason people are stressed is because of money issues. If money wasn't an issue you'd have a happier society overall. Less crime, less drug dependency which means people will be more charitable and helpful to one another instead of cut-throat because of a lack of resources.
I think that's the point. For some, an extra thousand dollars doesn't mean a lot, for some it does. It's illuminating how economically disparate society is and nudging the wealth gap to be a bit smaller without people having to jump through hoops in order to get the help they need.
If you really like Yang, register as a Democrat so your vote will count in the primaries. You can still vote for Trump in the General if you still decide to. Unless the party goes with someone else, Trump will still be there. You win either way.
We're trying, but we need help! Please join #internationalyanggang on any social media. Please spread the word about Andrew online and share with your American friends !!
Trust his tactics. His placement right now is unbelievable. Just wait till more time passes and people hear more about him. He attacks every single major problem the modern American thinks of. He just needs more exposure
i hope when he becomes president that he becomes even more laser focused on getting sharks with freakin lasers on their head. hahaha. jokes aside, yes, he's laser focused.

VrQz Silent #Bulls2022Champs Lol I’m in my late 30’s, never voted or like any candidate but I am excited about Andrew Yang. I’m going to vote for the first time because of him. I need him in the office. Yang Gang all day!
Former Bernie supporter here, donated when he first announced. Now Yang is our new hope. Medicare for all Freedom dividend Democracy dollars Plus next gen policies. Let’s do this.
Before you criticize his UBI, you should take a look at his other policies, you will find what is lacked in UBI is compensated by his other policies. It is like a premium package, it is note complete with a part without the other.
is Ubi deserves criticism because it's poorly thought-out and his other policies do not help or support in any way his plan for Ubi.. his ideas for medicare-for-all isn't really medicare-for-all you're still payingand his Ubi combined with still paying for medical is deeply flawed it's a net negative..
He is the only candidate who I think will make the difference we want. I don't want universal childcare, I want enough stability to be able to stay home with my own children. Im 27 and deeply want children, but not just to throw them into daycare. If UBI passed, I would have children and so many other families would too.
The freedom dividend is the best policy out there to give potential mothers like yourself recognition for staying home with our children. I'm not saying women need to be homemakers, but if they desire to do so, at least they will be financially recognized.
And as Yang has said, if we were to get the 1k freedom dividend enacted, more of us could then make greater efforts in our daily lives to help tackle climate change and other environmental damage so that our children and grandchildren have a chance at a bright future on a livable planet.
--because (I should've elaborated) first we need to "get the economic boot off of our necks". UBI would allieviate the rampant scarcity mindset. Most people, like me, who may care and worry about the future of the planet are too focused on putting food on the table and getting or keeping a roof over their heads to have time or the will or energy to get involved with climate change, environmental, or conservation activism. I really believe that if people had some financial relief we'd be able to breathe and then be more prepared to give of ourselves and help out in our communities and be better human beings in general. That said, what i do worry about with UBI is by giving everyone more buying power we'd remain stuck in a vicious consumption cycle and only continue polluting the planet with disposable goods. We'd have to collectively be even more vigilant about how and what we consume.
Wow! What a strong statement!! I’ve worked in a day care before and it breaks my heart how I as an 18 year old was literally parenting these kids. They spent more time with me than with their parents. It’s so important for a child to have the influence and quality of time with their families. This not only improves their quality of life but also the child’s mental health and ability to do well in school.
watch that closing comment again by Meyers... "...talking about things nobody else is" and you can hear the sense of defeat in that. Yang is pulling everyone together raising them up and saying you're all a part of it. This is just gold.
Andrew Yang is a true visionary who can not only bring the county together but revolutionize it for 21 century for humanity. People, please WAKE UP !!! #Yang2020
@Bruce Schram the tax Yang plans to put in place wouldn't be noticeable under his program as you'd be getting that money and thensome back through the Freedom Dividend. I won't explain all the complicated math right now but you'd have to spend $120k+ a year for the tax to start negatively affecting you, which is the point to begin with. He also wants to remove the tax from more consumer goods like groceries, diapers, etc. It makes more sense for you to be penalized through taxes when you buy a yacht instead of groceries. The tax is about being fair. It's not fair when trillion-dollar companies find loopholes to pay 0 in taxes (less than you) while benefitting off of new technologies as regular workers get left in the dust to deal with the consequences. Besides, these massive tech companies already make millions off you. If you have a Google account (which you do) you are signing partial ownership of your data to Google. They are allowed to sell it to third parties. Data is valued higher than oil now. This means companies are already leeching off of you for profits. It's only fair you get compensation. If you give that money straight to the people, it will only stimulate the economy as that money would circulate through your local communities. We would start building the economy form the ground up rather that the "trickle-down" system we have right now that doesn't work as displayed by the wealth disparity. Milton Freidman, the grandfather of conservative economics who wrote several textbooks on the subject, said that our current trickle-down system was only meant to work with a Basic Income. This makes sense as a means to prevent the wealth disparity.
Biden, Buttigieg, and now Bernie all have are or starting to sound like Yang. That joke about other politicians offering $1,100 per month ain’t no joke.
Can you explain how you think Bernie sounds like Yang in any way? The only reason people like Yang ever even got the idea to run, is because Bernie showed that people want progressive policies, Bernie is the sole reason for why candidates even dare to mention m4a, free collage, higher taxes on the 1% etc. Everyone in the democratic primary has leached off his proposals, which is great if those candidates will follow through with their promises (Warren), he has brought leftist ideas into the mainstream and to suggest he is somehow looking towards Yang as an inspiration and copying him is ridiculous and a very politically illiterate way of understanding.
@@AlliFalli yang supported Bernie in 2016 so chill. other candidates definitely, and sanders possibly, have used yang's talking points recently. I counted three when warren was on Colbert. as yang said though in this interview, he fully expected this to happen and welcomes it in a sense.
@@AlliFalli I think it's important to realize that Yang and Sanders are both very much fighting for the same goal; improving the everyday lives of the majority of Americans. They just have differring opinions on how to get there. Yang was a Bernie supporter '16, just like many of Andrew's core supporters. Many of the YangGang will often have Bernie or Tulsi as their number two choice so it isn't as though the two bases are that far apart, it's just that they're equally passionate about their candidate. The most egregious instances of candidates sounding like Yang are Pete, DeBlasio, Tim Ryan, and Tulsi. Marianne as well, has adopted UBI but she outright cites Andrew's book for her inspiration in doing so. Tulsi is talking UBI and automation, but not necessarily mentioning Andrew.
He hasn't had a 1 on 1 debate against anyone qualified to challenge his ideas. That's the most negative thing I could think of. His ideas are great and I can't see a downside to them, but I'm not a economist or expert in these things.

@Dalton Taylor Fair point, but also this is just a surface level interview to introduce people to Yang's ideas, and those things you're talking about tend to be more deep-dive style topics included in longer interviews, so I don't really mind that they weren't there.
what do you mean finally? He's been getting a ton of good platforms and publicity lately.
"My pockets are always so heavy with unused pennies. 🙁 NOW, theres a president for that!"😀

"I'm going to win or the other candidates will sound a lot like me." This is the positivity we need, win or lose Yang is good for America.
Bingo!

"It's not left, it's not right, it's forward." - Andrew Yang
It's forward right.👍
I am a former Donald Trump supporter voting for Andrew Yang. Changed my registration from Republican to Democrat just so I can vote for him in the primary.
Thank you! Your vote means a lot towards humanity and moving forward together! I'm so grateful that you support Andrew Yang.
We are so glad you are here!!!
Changed from independent to Democrat so I can vote for him, too.
Lol he is not going to make it.
please convert more of your friends and family members...tell them why AMERICA need AY and AY need our HELP!!
As much as I love Seth he hasn’t been taking Andrew Yang seriously. He’s more than just “fresh ideas”, he is the future of politics if we want progress.
“It’s not left, it’s not right, it’s forward” - Andrew Yang
EXACTLY! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 He has provided solutions, not suggestions!
Seth is a comedian... He did much better than Colbert. We've to look at progress
@@Azariven Exactly. Seth in my opinion went far above and beyond the key sticking points of Yang's campaign by highlighting things other outlets haven't, things like State of the Union revamps, and his other less-known proposals. I don't feel we can confidently say that Seth isn't taking Yang seriously.
I agree.. even on this interview I sense Seth "tiptoeing" around.. while I BELEIVE Yang's candidacy brought out a bold philosophical, methodological, and fundametal change that's longoverdue for our system; government, our law, voting process, schools... in all areas we need to EVOLVE. All of these are set over hundres of years ago
Absolutely.
Looking forward to that first PowerPoint deck.
This!
And that tech check.
But first, Trump must be wreck’d. 🥊
Sponsored by Microsoft. Lol
Everything looks good in powerpoint, I wanna see results

The hardest working candidate on the campaign trail. Good luck Andrew Yang and the American.
Well there's also Bernie who literally is still doing rallies days before a debate with a hoarse voice.
Yang's great but let's not forget the OG
Tyler Haknuman Warren is working crazy hard
Jackie Perez yeah but i think they’re gonna wear themselves out at this rate, before they even get to the White House. We should focus on choosing a healthy candidate, one that’s capable of dealing with the long road ahead; both physically and mentally! Just food for thought.
@Fagus Grandifolia Nope. We should not see Yang as a threat. He's a progressive ally we absolutely need in the Bernie's political revolution. Bernie is not HRC. He's not entitled to the nomination. He's working his ass off for it.
Being a Bernie bro and #YangGang member are not mutually exclusive.
There are 15 other neolibs in the race. Let's focus our ire on them rather than each other
Trump is also hardworking man. Sometimes coked up too.
He's just crazy.
We need to elect the smart kid in class for once!
gimme the 1 grand, boss
obama went Harvard
@@vampire_workday I think he was referring to the fact that he's the one pushing for the most reform in ways that aren't just worthless government programs to distract the people.
@@vampire_workday yeah, but its one thing to have head knowledge and another to actually know and care to actually apply it.
imo yang isnt even that intelligent, he is simply standing on the platform that makes sense. we got problem, we have solution. lets apply solution to problem.
while other candidates can also say the same problem and swing their intellect by saying things that confuse people like trade policy and blah blah blah.
@@peacebestillgaming3073 Yang isn't that intelligent? LMAO He had a 1300 SAT score at 13, 1400 at 14, and over 1500 at age 15. We definitely need to the smart kid to run the country! #yanggang

@@williamw422 yang hasnt taken any pac money. He's also been consistant for years, there are videos of yang going back to 2009.
Really Now yangs good but if you go past his UBI and look through he’s more of a libertarian. If you know what your talking about Bernie is the best option with his record
There are ideas, and then there are ideas backed by data.

1k a month is nothing. your parents probably pay your bills. the qay in which this can increase inflation.. there's no way this thing happens and if it did you wouldnt tell the difference.
@@raftlack4326 UBI passed twice in the early 70's and we'd have it now if they hadn't take too long to finalize it. The way it's planned won't cause inflation but more likely deflation as the economic problems we have now that cause inflation will be taken care of.
It’s time people stop taking him as a joke ... he is here for the long haul! Yang 2020!
Like Yang himself says, it's all fun and games until he passes them in the polls.
They can make jokes at their own peril
Well said
It's why he's suddenly getting all this media coverage. Maybe partially because he called out MSNBC for essentially blacking him out, but....
His progress can no longer be ignored when he beats Kamala Harris in her own state.
He has no chance. Polling at 3.7% average and the vast majority of American's aren't going to understand the need for UBI in the coming decades until it's too late and an economic crash has already happened. Glad he's raising awareness at least but he has essentially no chance of being nominated.
@@JohnSmith-zn1oh He's said before that it's essentially a win-win for him that he's receiving as much attention as he is and that he's being taken seriously now that he's threatening Kamala. Paraphrasing him, "I either become president or the President is gonna look a lot like me" - UBI becomes a toothpaste-out-of-the-tube idea that you can't quash once it gains traction.
Y’all he really has a point. There’s been soooo many new self check out machines at Walmart and most stores in the last three years. We’re witnessing a prediction of the future through Andrew Yang. I’m not a supporter but I am listening and if he makes it best believe he has my vote.
Get this man in office ASAP. "I'll either win or other candidates are going to start sounding a lot like me"
Goku black if he doesn't please destroy America with your zero mortals plan.
Google Andrew Yang. He has more than 100+ common sense policies and is way more than just the UBI guy. I would vote for him even if the Freedom Dividend was taken off the table. Excited about his candidacy.
Exactly, 148 policies in total I think. The candidate with the most policies among ALL candidates in detail on his Yang2020 website & they keep branding him as a single policy candidate. SMH
It’s a wonder he’s the first to actually introduce some of these changes
EXACTLY! YANGGANG 2020!
Democracy dollars!!
He’s a solutions guy, I love it! Clear answers, well thought through. MATH 😜
Thank you, Seth, for inviting Yang on your show! Looking forward to President Yang 2020!
Yang is all over the place! He's an incredible human being. Let's make him our next president
He's gitti busy for sure
Hhahahahaahaha
Why do you like him? I like his practical approach and transparency. I think the powerpoint idea will bring the correct data to the conversation. Politicians often cite statistics when its convenient. But yang will regularly report statistics that reflect human well being at the state of the union.
It's interesting hearing people say Yang's plan takes away from "being an American", because "Americans work for their success, they don't take handouts" yet a majority of Americans struggle while trying their hardest for a system that is built against them. 1000/month is not enough for anyone to stop working and that's a fact, but it's enough to help out millions of people who legitimately need it. #Yang2020
well said
Wholeheartedly agree. It's not about taking away the "hardworking spirit", but more about using our resources wisely and more efficiently, put that back into the system and make things even better.
Why stop at $1000 though? Why not $2000?
Don Fazy the current national poverty line for a household of 2 adults and 2 children is around $25,000 a year. So $1000/month for both adults would equal $24,000 a year for them and provide them a floor of which to work off of in which they can pay for goods and necessities to support their family, while still having enough room to move upwards economically.
Don Fazy you’re starting to get towards a liveable income with 2K/month. UBI at 1K/month is low enough as to not be able to live off it.
The SOTU topic is underrated imo. Yang has been through investor meetings, company meetings, etc. His ability to get the organization and even the country up to speed on the success rate of the country will be amazing to watch. No one can compete with that. No one else on the stage has had organizational level experience the way he has. The main difference is that he's started things from scratch.
Once in a lifetime candidate, people. We can't let this man slip through our grasp.
Exactly!
Completely agree!
yeah, thats what i try to tell people. we need to instill these things now, so we're better off later. instead of waiting to hit rock bottom before pulling ourselves out.
Yes!!!!
Gotta spread awareness!!!! Still some people that think he is a joke !!!! Also gotta build his Facebook page !!!
Im still shocked that Yang videos are majority positive comments. This is something that drew me to him as well. The Yanggang is so positive and hopeful. Very refreshing!
Comment boards are 99%-100% positive in any Yang video. We are not trolls, not mean, not looking for fights. We are hopeful, helpful, and here to win fair.
And to see outsiders view us positively makes us happy too!
Thank you! :)
Ahhh I love the #YangGang ! Educate instead of hate
Biden, kamala and unfortunately bernie supports are attacking him viciously now that he is a threat. Trump supporters are also starting to notice him. Yang is not going to win. Too many things against him. His race is going to come in factor too. Asian men don't have good and strong reputation in the west thanks to media including so called liberal media.

Seth brought up some very good topics. I'm very surprised. He allowed Andrew to promote his ideas better than most media outlets.

@@DoktreSam And most likely a wage slave. I don't understand the appeal. Trump's not a "generous to the poor and middle class" billionaire like say Bill Gates. He just wants them to buy his silly red hats to add to his coffers. Trump is addicted to money and not progress. He is very unlike Musk and others with projects to extend human accomplishments. He is just a big, greedy resource hoarding addict in the way of progress!

The only candidate with a net worth below a million dollars and the only candidate that really acts like a human being instead of a politician.
His net worth is over a million, but not much more than that. He spent the last 7 years running a non-profit and drawing a modest paycheck, meant NOT to get filthy rich, but to help startup businesses grow in the cities all around America that entrepreneurs usually avoid. This guy has been walking the walk behind his vision for a long time.
A M last I checked it was $860,000
keco185 I mean I think Pete actually has the lowest net worth but with the amount of billionaires he surrounds himself with you’d think otherwise. Yang is the best candidate though

@@johnsonl8816 The dividend is taxed like most other income. It changes each year depending how much the state makes from oil, I've seen it as low as $900 and as high as $1,800. This year it will be $1600 before taxes. We also only receive this dividend once every year in October.
Thanks! Good to know!
Will this effect inflation rate at all?
@@user-zx4vj6ub8r not if you use money that already exists which is what Yang wants to do. He wants to place a tax (a VAT) that would affect massive companies like Amazon that have managed to pay little to 0 income tax for one (Amazon paid 0 in 2018). that's combined with a tax on carbon, savings on programs that will be less necessary once the FD is put in place, as well as overlap with govt. programs that already exist such as welfare and food stamps, a program like this would be doable.

This really is the future! When jobs disappear to automation, there's these people saying "there will always be new jobs". Obviously this will not work forever. Is it really fair that companies who previously needed to employ 100 employees and now can employ 10 because of automation will keep their profit for themselves? Of course not! It's only reasonable that everyone gets their fair share of the economy, and then we can all share the jobs left to do. Work less, having better lives. As a europeean I really hope this idea catches on in Europe as well soon!
That’s the ideal way to live. Hopefully we don’t continue to let these super obvious scheme bots at the top of the pyramid continue to blast us in our collective asses. 🤷🏽♂️
frbo9002 - "When jobs disappear due to automation..." Read Kurt Vonnegut's Player Piano, which predicted that back in 1952. From Wikipedia: "It depicts a dystopia of automation, describing the negative impact it can have on quality of life. The story takes place in a near-future society that is almost totally mechanized, eliminating the need for human laborers. The widespread mechanization creates conflict between the wealthy upper class, the engineers and managers, who keep society running, and the lower class, whose skills and purpose in society have been replaced by machines. "
Many people discuss the idea of UBI under an ethical spectrum, and while it isn't incorrect, I believe it's far more effective to discuss it under a practical spectrum. Not a single minimally-informed human being would deny that automation is on the rise, and that more and more human jobs will disappear as it grows and evolves.
If you take this assumption to its logical endpoint, eventually most, if not all, human jobs will be automated, meaning most, if not all, humans will be non-productive and, by extension, non-consuming (since currently, productiveness = money = consumption). Now ask yourself: what good is having an automated factory that can create thousands of products in minutes if only a handful of people worldwide can afford them? It breaks offer and demand, which breaks our whole capitalist economic system.
They do it in Italy there is a Netflix documentary about how other countries are ran bye the same guy that did the Fahrenheit 9-1-1 movie.
@@ftw5064 -- UBI is so much better than this current trickle down economy. This trickle down economy has always assumed the rich would redistribute wealth by creating more jobs. That just isn't happening. There is another business principle that isn't working today because of the rich. The market place runs because people buy things therefore putting money back into the market place. Rich people really don't spend much. Rich people invest but a majority of their money is safely locked away. UBI will give the population spending power. That $1000 a month won't just get thrown in savings accounts. That $1000 a month will go directly back into the market place. UBI is a very good step away from trickle down economics. In the last 30 years CEOs have increased their salaries over 1200% while the average citizens salaries have increased incrementally. Money is sticking not trickling.

Biden needs to give credit to Yang about automation, he doesn't really even understand the problem or how to deal with it. Buttigieg was basically copying Yang's talking points about redfining what we should measure, that we need to redefine what "work" is and that UBI is working in Stockton CA.. but then he laughed at Yang during debates. None of them have any real bright ideas or solutions except Yang.

Short but good interview! Fair questions and felt like Yang was taken more seriously than in some previous interviews, although this of course is a “comedy show”
Late Night appearances are definitely too short and are not much more than a commercial to introduce him to the public. If you are interested, you need to go deeper and TH-cam Andrew Yang for a better sense of who he is.
That's just how Seth treats everyone. I've honestly never seen a bad interview. He's such a professional. I'd have been shocked if he hadn't treated Yang well.
J unio R Seth is very respectful of all of his guests he’s cool like that
UBI is simply miles better than a federal jobs guarantee in what they are trying to accomplish
We have no clue what it would accomplish. UBI is untested and 3 trillion is a lot to put on a bet.
@@calvinhoward3808 I have no idea how they came up with 3 Trillion dollars to fund this.
www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/US#
According to this census.gov website above, the population estimate of 2018 is about 71.5% are 18+ out of 327 million people. 71.5% is roughly 234 million. If each of the 234 million people gets $1000, it's about $324 billion dollars, nowhere near 3 trillion. Am I missing something? Not to mention, this is not yet accounted for people who gets better government aids and want to opt out of UBI (or anyone wants to opt out for whatever reason they have). Andrew did say it's an opt-in. Am I missing something?
@ThatGuyOnTheInternet I feel sad. Idk how I missed that. XD so that'll make it about 2.8 trillion?
@ThatGuyOnTheInternet you could cut SS in half, but you couldn't remove it. As it is, the $18,000/yr they get, with all the bills they have, gives a horrible life if the elderly don't have family or significant savings to help.
$12,000/yr would make them homeless and without healthcare.
But it is a good point most people neglect with their "3 trillion" .
It would eliminate 1.5T from the hundreds of bureaucratic programs it replaces.
And the funding side starts balancing even more simply due to economic growth and offset from rich people who will pay the $12,000 back in taxes.

@Miles Jones When the bakery making bread use automation and AI the price of bread will be way way below your $100 price tag. The government will not print additional money so its not inflationary. The money that the Bezos et al stashed in the bank rotting - the citizen will get dividend/share that will be evenly distributed and circulated back to the economy to generate more economic activities.

Anyone who recieves Social Security, SSDI or Veterans Disability, will also get UBI. UBI will also stack with housing assistance and people on Medicaid will stay on Medicaid until they can be transitioned to Medicare 4 All. Scott Santens has a great article outlining this.

Wow, I wasn't expecting to hear or see anything new but I was wrong. I'm already on the YangGang train, but I'm excited to hear we'll be getting a PowerPoint presentation at every state of the union on the real situation of our country and not just some made up numbers that don't accurately represent our situation.
Then you should at least watch one of his rally video... and definitely some long form ones.
Go watch the classic interview of Yang that started the first big wave of the YangGang-his interview with Joe Rogan.
@@hiphop0280 I've seen that. I've been watching a bunch of his content, I just didn't hear about him going to be using PowerPoint.
Yang will be truthful.
He will say
This is where we are
Show the statistics
And this is where we want to be
Policies discussed.
Following year
Hey guy, this is where we were, this is where we are.
And the things we tried,
Some worked, some didn't work.
By doing policy a, it changed something by 5%
By doing that, it changed that by 7%
Ect...
Math and science
This guy actually makes sense. He just spent 5 minutes on a late night show talking real policy instead of trying to seem cool like other candidates. Between this and Warren’s interview with Colbert the other day where she refused to answer questions straight I definitely choose Andrew Yang.
Did you see his recent Climate Crisis Town Hall on MSNBC? If not I highly recommend it. He was amazing. Here: th-cam.com/video/j6EGQGz-MXA/w-d-xo.html
bernie also does thath.
For all the people saying 1,000 dollars doesn't go very far. I would argue that 1k goes a heck of a lot farther that 0!
Have a roommate? With 2k a month me and.my roommate can basically rent anywhere we want where we live
An extra 1000 a month would be life changing for me as a single mom!
@@kimvansandt2906 Heck, it would be life changing for the vast majority of Americans. Imagine completely erasing or reducing your rent every month to 60-70% of what you were paying? Thats like having an extra payheck of disposable income every month. Thats: Pay off all your debt money. Thats: Go back to school money. Thats; Leave your crappy job that you feel trapped in money. Thats; Actually start saving for retirement money Thats buying a new car and being able to play the monthly payments or maybe just paying for it completely in cash. The vast majority of the reason people are stressed is because of money issues. If money wasn't an issue you'd have a happier society overall. Less crime, less drug dependency which means people will be more charitable and helpful to one another instead of cut-throat because of a lack of resources.
I think that's the point. For some, an extra thousand dollars doesn't mean a lot, for some it does. It's illuminating how economically disparate society is and nudging the wealth gap to be a bit smaller without people having to jump through hoops in order to get the help they need.
And it's not meant to be a free ticket, it's meant to relieve pressure so you can pursue passions, survive tough times and take chances!
As a republican, I will vote for yang if he wins.
you should consider trying to get him to win the nomination so there isn't a warren or Biden there. but we appreciate it!!
He needs every vote he can get in the primaries. Register to support his campaign and get him elected as the democratic candidate. He's our best shot
If you really like Yang, register as a Democrat so your vote will count in the primaries. You can still vote for Trump in the General if you still decide to. Unless the party goes with someone else, Trump will still be there. You win either way.
Of course because its a far right scam.
Same
This isn't just a wild idea anymore. Andrew Yang really is a serious contender.
Please vote for this guy.. America please.
we're trying
We're trying, but we need help!
Please join #internationalyanggang on any social media.
Please spread the word about Andrew online and share with your American friends !!
Trust his tactics. His placement right now is unbelievable. Just wait till more time passes and people hear more about him. He attacks every single major problem the modern American thinks of.
He just needs more exposure
Yang gang 2020 i won't vote for anyone else
currently waiting for approval to change my independent status to dem, and then i will be :)
We have to elect this man
You could hear the wheels turning in the audiences head, then Yang asked for applause and they all converted to Yang Gang. Make America Think Harder!
The audience couldn't initially process what he stated. It was good, realistic and sensible. Not expected of a president campaigner these days...
A true champion of the people and laser focused on the biggest problems facing our country!
i hope when he becomes president that he becomes even more laser focused on getting sharks with freakin lasers on their head. hahaha. jokes aside, yes, he's laser focused.
This guy has my vote! Seriously though, his policies are great and if anyone who is unsure about him wants to learn more about him and his policies I highly recommend watching his interview with Joe Rogan.
Andrew Yang gives me goosebumps...
In a good way.
Because he will win.
Yes. Yes. Yes!
Elon Musk has endorsed Andrew Yang!
when is the Elon Yang interview happening? I heard they were working on it..
@@rifz42 That would be one hell of an interview!
Musk is overrated.
Yeah hes boring
@@chrisolson84 indeed he is
Seth did some homework. He was trying to ask good questions.
Andrew also did a good job answering them. Unlike Liz Warren 😰
its like the audience is in shock that they're being talked to with respect. YANG GANG
I'm from the UK and i want Andrew Yang to be President in 2020.
JamitBoi make England think harder, METH!!
How come the international community understands Yang's platform better than average Americans?
@@xenancy8725 The UK and Europe are inspired by America. Its about the human race being healthy again. Most wealthy rich people are the ignorant ones who doesn't care about others who needed the support. Mental health is getting worse.
yes same
Northern Ireland YangGang representing! Lets go YangGang!
There’s a certain umph that Andrew Yang put in this interview...🧐. I like it!
This is the first time I’ve actually liked a candidate since being able to vote (I’m 22)
Thats not very many candidates tbf
22 and didn’t vote in the last election, didn’t like candidates and didn’t know enough. Feel a lot better about 2020 and voting for Yang!
VrQz Silent #Bulls2022Champs
Lol
I’m in my late 30’s, never voted or like any candidate but I am excited about Andrew Yang. I’m going to vote for the first time because of him. I need him in the office.
Yang Gang all day!
OoooOOooOoo
VrQz Silent #Bulls2022Champs same here
he's got revolutionary ideas for the world and by the looks of how he's climbing in he polls it seems like the people are ready to hear it
Former Bernie supporter here, donated when he first announced.
Now Yang is our new hope.
Medicare for all
Freedom dividend
Democracy dollars
Plus next gen policies. Let’s do this.
Andrew did amazing! He is really sharpening the message!! Let’s get this!!
Before you criticize his UBI, you should take a look at his other policies, you will find what is lacked in UBI is compensated by his other policies. It is like a premium package, it is note complete with a part without the other.
@One Of Those Guys What about a transfer of wealth from the rich to the poor props up a permanent hierarchy?
Seems to me it would do the opposite.
is Ubi deserves criticism because it's poorly thought-out and his other policies do not help or support in any way his plan for Ubi.. his ideas for medicare-for-all isn't really medicare-for-all you're still payingand his Ubi combined with still paying for medical is deeply flawed it's a net negative..
@One Of Those Guys hmm. looks like we're kinda facing that right now
One Of Those Guys bruh Trump just gave the Wealthy a tax cut of over a trillion dollars tf are you talking about?
We need jobs that are resistant to automation. Those jobs require degrees. We need tuition free education. Yang doesn’t offer that.
'Real Cost Economics' with Yang! let's see it.
Wow that was more informative in five minutes than the last six hours of debates. Thank you Seth
Exactly what I was thinking. Those debates are trash.
Boycott the Debates. Run up the numbers on TH-cam and show them the difference in their ratings. It may seem minuscule but they’ll notice it. Trust.
Yang: says anything
The Entire Crowd: wooooOOOOOOO
When Andrew Yang presses his lips together - YOU KNOW he's expecting applause 😄
He is the only candidate who I think will make the difference we want. I don't want universal childcare, I want enough stability to be able to stay home with my own children. Im 27 and deeply want children, but not just to throw them into daycare. If UBI passed, I would have children and so many other families would too.
The freedom dividend is the best policy out there to give potential mothers like yourself recognition for staying home with our children. I'm not saying women need to be homemakers, but if they desire to do so, at least they will be financially recognized.
And as Yang has said, if we were to get the 1k freedom dividend enacted, more of us could then make greater efforts in our daily lives to help tackle climate change and other environmental damage so that our children and grandchildren have a chance at a bright future on a livable planet.
--because (I should've elaborated) first we need to "get the economic boot off of our necks". UBI would allieviate the rampant scarcity mindset. Most people, like me, who may care and worry about the future of the planet are too focused on putting food on the table and getting or keeping a roof over their heads to have time or the will or energy to get involved with climate change, environmental, or conservation activism. I really believe that if people had some financial relief we'd be able to breathe and then be more prepared to give of ourselves and help out in our communities and be better human beings in general.
That said, what i do worry about with UBI is by giving everyone more buying power we'd remain stuck in a vicious consumption cycle and only continue polluting the planet with disposable goods. We'd have to collectively be even more vigilant about how and what we consume.
Wow! What a strong statement!! I’ve worked in a day care before and it breaks my heart how I as an 18 year old was literally parenting these kids. They spent more time with me than with their parents. It’s so important for a child to have the influence and quality of time with their families. This not only improves their quality of life but also the child’s mental health and ability to do well in school.
UBI is NOT paid parental leave.
Andrew yang for president!
0:31 can we pls aknowledge the fact that he absolutely killed it with his first answer
watch that closing comment again by Meyers... "...talking about things nobody else is" and you can hear the sense of defeat in that. Yang is pulling everyone together raising them up and saying you're all a part of it. This is just gold.
I love president Yang he unites the country around the important issues
Andrew Yang is a true visionary who can not only bring the county together
but revolutionize it for 21 century for humanity. People, please WAKE UP !!!
#Yang2020
Thanks for having our boy on the show and #LetYangSpeak about the future this country could have.
Good short interview. Search "Andrew Yang" in TH-cam for more.
For sure check out his interview with Ben Shapiro or Joe Rogan!
@Bruce Schram he's 6"1' he might be taller than you
@Bruce Schram you make very compelling arguments against his platform. Please elaborate
@Bruce Schram the tax Yang plans to put in place wouldn't be noticeable under his program as you'd be getting that money and thensome back through the Freedom Dividend. I won't explain all the complicated math right now but you'd have to spend $120k+ a year for the tax to start negatively affecting you, which is the point to begin with. He also wants to remove the tax from more consumer goods like groceries, diapers, etc. It makes more sense for you to be penalized through taxes when you buy a yacht instead of groceries.
The tax is about being fair. It's not fair when trillion-dollar companies find loopholes to pay 0 in taxes (less than you) while benefitting off of new technologies as regular workers get left in the dust to deal with the consequences. Besides, these massive tech companies already make millions off you. If you have a Google account (which you do) you are signing partial ownership of your data to Google. They are allowed to sell it to third parties. Data is valued higher than oil now. This means companies are already leeching off of you for profits. It's only fair you get compensation.
If you give that money straight to the people, it will only stimulate the economy as that money would circulate through your local communities. We would start building the economy form the ground up rather that the "trickle-down" system we have right now that doesn't work as displayed by the wealth disparity. Milton Freidman, the grandfather of conservative economics who wrote several textbooks on the subject, said that our current trickle-down system was only meant to work with a Basic Income. This makes sense as a means to prevent the wealth disparity.
Yeah the interview with Joe Rogan is a GREAT introduction.
He seems genuine, and a lot of his ideas make sense and they are forward looking too, I like that.
Thank you so much Seth for giving him time on your show, on top of that you allowed him to speak instead of interrogating him
You’re my fav ❤️
First H3H3 and now I've seen him all over the place. Even doing well. Just seems more down to earth them some of the others.
Is it because he's not a career politician but a problem solver?
Don't forget JRE. And he's actually been quite active doing interviews.
let us make this video on trend!!
Biden, Buttigieg, and now Bernie all have are or starting to sound like Yang. That joke about other politicians offering $1,100 per month ain’t no joke.
Can you explain how you think Bernie sounds like Yang in any way?
The only reason people like Yang ever even got the idea to run, is because Bernie showed that people want progressive policies, Bernie is the sole reason for why candidates even dare to mention m4a, free collage, higher taxes on the 1% etc. Everyone in the democratic primary has leached off his proposals, which is great if those candidates will follow through with their promises (Warren), he has brought leftist ideas into the mainstream and to suggest he is somehow looking towards Yang as an inspiration and copying him is ridiculous and a very politically illiterate way of understanding.
@@AlliFalli yang supported Bernie in 2016 so chill. other candidates definitely, and sanders possibly, have used yang's talking points recently. I counted three when warren was on Colbert. as yang said though in this interview, he fully expected this to happen and welcomes it in a sense.
Yang is Bernie 2.0. Watch some long form interviews like H3 or Joe Rogan. You’ll see the connections.
@@AlliFalli I think it's important to realize that Yang and Sanders are both very much fighting for the same goal; improving the everyday lives of the majority of Americans. They just have differring opinions on how to get there. Yang was a Bernie supporter '16, just like many of Andrew's core supporters. Many of the YangGang will often have Bernie or Tulsi as their number two choice so it isn't as though the two bases are that far apart, it's just that they're equally passionate about their candidate.
The most egregious instances of candidates sounding like Yang are Pete, DeBlasio, Tim Ryan, and Tulsi. Marianne as well, has adopted UBI but she outright cites Andrew's book for her inspiration in doing so. Tulsi is talking UBI and automation, but not necessarily mentioning Andrew.
Leximann - watch Biden on Stephen Colbert because Biden completely stole Yang’s lines. And watch Buttigieg on Bill Maher. He also stole Yang’s lines.
"michigan, ohio, pennsylvania, wisconsin, iowa..."
- Andrew Yang, 2019
God I love this guy. I just know hes going to be President. He has amazing policies
I couldn’t find one negative yang comment here. Great approval rating already!!
I found one, but it wasn't overtly anti-Yang, it was condescendingly pro-Bernie.
@@trickq5883 No idea, I like Bernie but prefer Yang.
He hasn't had a 1 on 1 debate against anyone qualified to challenge his ideas. That's the most negative thing I could think of. His ideas are great and I can't see a downside to them, but I'm not a economist or expert in these things.
@@rifz42 watched all his interviews?
Ben shapiro
Joe Rogan
Robin...
And whole lot more
@@AG-qo5vt yes I did, Ben asked some hard questions, but it was a interview not a formal debate, there was no moderator etc. Joe is great, but I said qualified to challenge his ideas, Joe even says he's not good at math..
Go ahead and smash this like button if you're a fan of MATH
Andrew is getting more comfortable/ funny at the interview and keep the interaction with the audience well.
only one sky
Do you think he model after cambridge analytica, it worked for trump to win 2016, but use it for the force for good, propaganda is a grey word but it’s powerful at the least
Yang Gang! So happy he’s message is being heard more and more!
Yang2020
If you Americans don't vote for this man we'll have him here in the UK. An intelligent person in politics. Breath of fresh air.
