"I don't want to be better anymore. I want to win." lol - best line in this clip.
And you wonder why the Left is in the position they're in.
Imagine the stinking pig Moore is what he claims to hate. Surprising?
trying to save America from a racist/complacent party? Yea I wonder why...
Hahaha, you believe the duopoly theory. Sad. These people hate Trump because he cracked their system. What else explains the common ground between liberals and never Trump schmucks?
Outlandish promises were what in your opinion?
Thom hosted Brunch with Bernie fot 11 years prior to Bernies run. Bernie always took notes of every caller everytime, a true political leader, listening to the people.
killer sheep bahaha
Disappointed Thom didn't call out Kathrine's lie about Medicare for All.
All talk, no action. The Bernie way; no refunds sucker.
He let Hillary spend your money.
Bernie actually goes to the people.
Where was Thom in that discussion where they all were wrong about the cost of Bernie’s health care plan?
Wow, more Thom Hartmann please!!
Thanks PJ for all the laughs as a teenager (in the 80's). Gone and will be missed - from a liberal).
Absolutely. I'm a lifetime hard leftist...and I always found him to be hilarious.
Holy shit, I love Mike Moore and Tom Hartmann lol
M4A is cheaper. It’s not an argument anymore. Free college is 70 billion. Take it from the military. Solved.
Why? Is higher education something you are entitled to?
So we have unlimited money for war but no money for education? Even though tons of less economically powerful countries have been doing it for decades? If the gov paid for college especially trade schools they would make that money back in 2 or 3 years through higher taxes and then profit in the long run. All that while allowing ppl to better their lives and the lives of their family.
@@thunderkhajiitkitten6787 We don't have unlimited money for anything. And all those countries you ate talking about are a lot smaller than the U.S.. I agree that more people should be going to trade schools, but if the gov't pays for it, then it basically becomes a government subsidy. Then the institutions will raise the tuition cost because more people can "afford" to pay it.
Why is high school education entitled to you? Lol. Goofy republicans. $80 billion is nothing in a $4.5 trillion annual budget.
@@blackout07blue I actually dont think high school should be entitled either. I think up to 7th grade is entitled, because the gov't has an interest to making sure it's population is literate, and can do basic arithmetic. Part of what the military does is ensure we can do proper trade with other countries.
So glad Thom got to speak more here.
I listen to the Thom Hartman Show on Progressive Radio, Great!
Peter Gabrielson. Me too. Was weird hearing him swear. Lol
I can’t wait for the pumpkin spice latte to come back at Starbucks, Great!
I always wonder why these conservatives never ask or question about the 8 wars we're in and how we pay for them with ease and lack of concern (trillions btw) but when it comes to helping the American people its "HOW ARE WE GONNA PAY FOR IT!? ITS IMPOSSIBLE!!" even though Bernie has several videos on YT explaining how, backed up by people who actually know economics. But Bill Maher just agrees with her anyway.
This is America.
Yeah cant blame the conservatives when Obama had an equal part to play in starting conflicts in Libya, Pakistan, Yemen(drone War) just like Bush did.
@@AhsanY2K Truth. Democrats are included in this, if not the main. But we can't be switching blame from one person to the other. They are all to blame at this point and we all need to come together and point it out. I shouldn't just be blaming conservatives and that's a fair point.
The few trillions are for these entire years of war since the start of the war on terror, not trillions in a year
Dronebama was a war monger as well buddeh.
Mike Jones no there is one “Democrat” that has voted against every war! His name is Bernie!! Might want to get your facts straight
What to cut from the federal budget to pay for social services? The military budget, the tax cuts for the rich and their corporations. We can also increase taxes on corporations and the wealthy, including penny taxes on high frequency wall street trading. Lastly, single-payer Medicare for all is cheaper than what we're paying now.
Why should we increase taxes? And why should penny taxes be a thing?
You want to cut the military so Russia and China can expand without interference.
You want to strip all incentives for innovation by killing big business.
You somehow think that everybody getting free health care would save us money.
Have you seen the health problems this country has? Now imagine if health care is free. You think people will care if they eat another piece of pie? They will look at that as incentive to eat more.
You're like a child that doesn't understand what a budget is. You also don't understand that actions have consequences. Tax the rich and they will leave. They will take their jobs and innovations elsewhere. Force doctors to work for the government and watch the best, the ones that deserve to be paid the most, leave.
You want to strip the brains from this country all because you want something for free.
You don't even hide it anymore. Moore clearly said lie to your constituents, just tell them it's free. That basically sums up the Democratic Party right there.
The comment said CHEAPER, not FREE. Personally, I have doubts whether government can manage a single payer system. But maybe anything is better than the current one.
Don't forget the stellar track record of the federal government being so efficient with all their programs. I have full confidence that if we all give them more of our money, they'll spend it wisely and deliver us better healthcare than we already receive. We should just get rid of the 50 state governments and give all the governing power to the federal government. A man can only dream.

The USA (world's highest military spending) spends 3 TIMES MORE than China (2nd spending) on the military, you fucking unbelievable idiot.
Even if the USA slashed the obscene, disgusting, corrupt military budget in HALF, it would still be spending more than anyone else on the planet.
The military is so unbelievably corrupt, with everything being 2 to 10 times overpriced and needlessly replaced and forcefully bought, as its main purpose is to pump taxpayer money into the pocket of corporate sociopaths and military contractors. Nothing more.
Yes, Catherine Rampell!! Excellent points and point-of-view. Hear, hear!
Well done Thom Hartmann! Love your show.
What you should be asking is how do we pay for the tax breaks for millionaires, billionaires and multi-billion dollar corporation's tax breaks and extra $ for the Military Complex or all the $ spent on Foreign Assistance, etc.?? What's needed is higher taxes on corporations and the richest citizens. Lower the rates but put an end to all the loopholes and write-offs. I never could understand how/why a tax break should be allowed for a company buying and building another building, such as a warehouse etc. It's their business. If I want a garage for my house, I could see me or any private citizen getting a tax break by spreading the expense over a few years but I can't say the same for a company. Save money or borrow it. No tax breaks. The country needs the revenue for the infrastructure that many of the businesses in the country need & use. So, it makes sense that they help pay for these things. They get enough of a break. If companies balk and try and hold us hostage by moving then we tell them - you move out thus taking jobs away then you cannot/will not be allowed to do business in America for 10 years.
What you said! 100%
BRAVO!!! Very well said!
How do you pay for it?
The original Legal Tender: CANNABIS!
Dick Fillmore Yeah! Now we're getting there! Cannabis money can pay for social safety nets easily, if the Repugnants would just step into the year 2018, not 1900's.
Thumbs up to my home state representing Friday night with Moore and Hartman.
3 of my favorite guys, all together -. Bill Maher, Michael Moore, Thom Hartmann !
Donee Stoner
Sorry to hear. But don't despair. With time, and presumably more exposure to the real world, there is not reason to fear that you won't outgrow the phase.
Yaaayy!! They invited Thom Hartmann
Why has it never come up that the KOCH BROTHER did a study about medicare for all and found that it would SAVE the country at least 400 billion-2 trillion dollars? I feel like its something Bill should have talked about
Why is it that every big corporation like Apple, coke, amazon are run by democrat donors, or liberal minded types?! See?! Greed isn’t just republican, it can be found in Hillary Clinton, obama and other ESTABLISHMENT democrats! ITS BOTH POLITICAL PARTIES, idiot!
Hey smartass, I wasn't talking about greed, I was saying that the Koch brothers, who are vehemently against medicare for all, conducted a study to prove that medicare for all wasn't financially realistic, and that study came back to report that it would save the country 400 billion - 2 trillion dollars.
slamandjam2. I'm disappointed Michael Moore didn't push back when Catherine and Maher said Bernie's math on M4A made no sense. He joked we care about liberal arts and not economics. I get that it was a joke, but that's a harmful stereotype. M4A will save us money. It isn't complicated. Even the right wing Koch funded study showed Bernie's plan will save us $2 trillion over ten years and give everyone coverage
Hey There
I haven't seen the study so don't know what they have and what haven't taken in consideration.
The question it hasn't seemed to tackle is, apart of money, how many lives it would save.
If as many as the VA medical care program, be careful what you wish for.
Jake Tapper fact checked that claim and gave it more context.
THOM HARTMANN is the MAN.
Love Thom Hartmann!
Catherine Rampell,
Let me explain single payer so you can understand:
Instead of insurance, you pay a monthly fee into a budget that will pay for your healthcare.
It is cheaper than what you have now, because:
Current model:
Healthcare cost + insane amount of profit for insurance companies = some people have access to healthcare
Single payer model:
Healthcare cost + 0 profit made on people suffering = all (working*) people have access to healthcare
*in some countries only students and working people are covered, in others everyone - you work it out
Please tweet this at her. I did
@crampell, call her out
Thanks. I`ve been watching the US news for a while now, and what I learnt is that you just can`t afford to be poor.
What is being done to you is nothing short of chilling. The insane propaganda you suffer over there is out of this world. Pretty much all the developed world has universal healthcare. It is not free. You pay for it. Everyone pays for it, it is not voluntary. And nobody complains about it, because every sane person knows that you need it. Just checked my payslip for you. A little less than 10% of my total gross pay goes to National Insurance. Last month that was $278. For that I have pretty much everything, but dental care and medication. That includes visits to health clinics, preventive care, ambulances, treatments, surgeries, you name it. So if I went to a concert and got shot, treatment would not cost me anything, if I were to break my leg, ambulance would be free, if I had cancer I would not go bankrupt. I remember Bill O`Rielly saying a few years ago that he had been to the UK and people's teeth are falling out, and not long ago somebody said that in Italy, cardboard is used for a cast. Ridiculous. (Fox TV also said that there are no go zones in Paris and London, and Birmingham is populated by Muslims only - been to or lived in all 3 cities, none of it is true.)
When people were shot in Las Vegas, their treatment was estimated to be around $90 thousand. Some of them were young and thought they did not need health insurance. Then comes charity, go fund me, or life crippling debt. Is that a way to live? It should be on the news all the time. Instead we watch well paid political pundits vomiting lies all day on TV thinking I have made it, so I must have worked really hard and everybody else is a lazy bum or they could have done it, too, so when their family member get cancer, they can just sell their house or die. Insane.
They say they believe in free market, but they protect their pharmaceutical companies like a mother tiger.
Why does a Daraprim tablet cost $750 that Sydney high schoolers cooked for $2?

Nirmal Mulye, the CEO of a small Kansas City pharmaceutical company, recently said he had a “moral requirement” to raise nitrofurantoin price 400 percent.
www.kansascity.com/news/business/health-care/article218726575.html
Looked up prices:
20 x NITROFURANTOIN 100mg tablets are sold $5.35 in Hungary. They make profit, too.
Eva Bolla The profit motive rules over everything else in this country .Its become a cliche ,but the real religion in America is the almighty dollar.

Great to see Thom Hartmann on the show, the most progressive talk show host in America!!
killer sheep Agree! And what Thom said was not just an opinion, it was straight up facts!
The Majority Report with Sam Seder is my fav. All the ones Ishmael Cato listed are good too!
Hartman was idiotic in his claim that msm is truth. He lost ALL cred with that one statement.
@@igluver15 they're so credible they've been sued for slander quite a lot, CNN as well
Really appreciated Ms. Rampell's presence in this episode.
“So have a plan for it.”
- Awesome
I love you Thom!!!! So happy to see you on here.
I’m glad Bill Maher invited Thom Hartmann.
Kudos for Michael Moore! "I want to win! I want them GONE"
Thom Hartmann!!! Nice
We pay twice as much for Healthcare than anybody else. What is amazing is that we pay for half of that out of our private pockets. You just start pulling down on the qualification age for Medicare. The Program is already in place. Reduction in our private pocket money will offset any meager increase in tax. The People in Germany, Japan, France and UK NEVER have to think about getting Healthcare. Americans think about Healthcare inflation, copays, deductibles etc many days and every single year. We Globalize/Free-Trade everything, why shouldn't we be able to buy meds in Canada? And (private Insurance) US Healthcare's earnings are up over 400% since the Financial Disaster.
I think it should be voluntary. Everyone with half a brain could sign up for Medicare. All the die hard right wingers who watch Fox News could simply not sign up because it is "SOCIALISM" (scream and run for your life). So they could keep the for-profit insurance industry humming along while the rest of us get free healthcare.
I love this show watched it for years now and never miss an episode. That being said; the bald guy and pj o'rourke were right about both parties being corporatist.
also yeah liberals will give you no wars tell that to Lybia, Yemen, Syria and all the other countries Obama bombed or provided arms to. wake the fuck up.
"I dont wanna be better anymore, I wanna win!" Yaaaaaaaasssssss!!!!!!
More Thom Hartman and less fake leftist
Actually more progressives, less out of touch Clintonites stuck in 1992.
“British conservatives are not crazy conservatives like they are in this country”, Bill, have you ever heard of a couple guys called Boris Johnson, and Nigel Farage?
Bill is ill-informed about a lot of things, why would this surprise you?
Or any British Parliamentary session
you;re right the difference is that[ so far] that pair have been kept away from the huuuuge button
Those two are traitors to Britain the same way Dump is a traitor to America
You may have Nigel Farage and Boris Johnson, but imagine a Party chock full of Nigel Farages and Boris Johnsons. That’s the Republican Party. You may have a couple nuts in your bag, but we’ve got a pile of moldy trail mix.
Y’all let that girl make a a blanket statement and just let it slide
even michael moore let it slide wtf.
She works for WAPO (owned by Jeff Bezos)
So it's in her boss's best interest to pretend medicare for all is a dumb idea.
www.cnbc.com/2018/03/27/amazons-moves-into-health-what-we-know.html
"Liberal bias" my ass cheeks.
didn't see any girls on there
Even the most critical study of Bernie's M4A plan showed it would save $2 trillion over 10 years, and everyone would get healthcare coverage. Saying the math doesn't make sense is blatantly wrong. And there's other things we could do to make healthcare more affordable, like weakening patents on life saving drugs, and allowing more people to become doctors
She couldn’t stop lying. Was unbelievable.
Hartmann and Rampell were very impressive and I hope you have them back.
How do you pay for it?!?
FUKIN TAX THE BANKS AND CORPORATIONS!!!
Fuuuuuuk, it’s not rocket surgery...
"Rocket surgery" has got my lungs in a choke hold. Holy shit! lmao
rocket science ?
Just end tax loopholes and keep the tax rates the same
CyberspacedLoner -> the joke
-> you
AND THE CHURCHES!!!!!
Thom Hartman is an unbelievably brilliant man and should be running for office rather then wasting time on the radio.
And Europe is bleeding out.
Thom is the most Progressive Talk Show Host in America, Hands down, the entire Progressive Party should utilize his show to expose themselves to the world.
Raymond Gordon okay makes sense. Thanks!
Oh, GAHD! You misspelled an easy word. Why are all liberals always misspelling elementary words like “than?!” Geez! And I never heard of him until tonight. I don’t think he’s win any election. He’s weak. He made one or two points on the show, but he’s weak.
What dafuq is progressive? Every human is progressive! Liberals are liberals! Or mindless zombie sheep! Not progressive! That term is useless. We all are wanting to move forward, aka progress!
I am so tickled to see Thom Hartman on here. I found out about him during the 2016 election, it was really cool to see someone on the left who would actually debate with his panel about stuff.
Catherine is really cute
Wow Thom Hartmann and Mike Moore + Bill Maher
I like Michael Moore`s and Thom Hartmann`s opinions. I wish Thom Hartmann would have got more time to speak.
Thom is the only one here that understands how important the Overton Window
Thom is the best Progressive talk show host in America
@@killersheep1588 between him, Pakman, Randi Rhodes and Amy Goodman
How can anyone think that "we'll figure it out" is a good answer to a financial question, no matter left or right?
Thom Hartmann is introduced as talk show host but that is only his most recent accomplishment.
The breadth and depth of his experience is remarkable. He was the first to propose the hunter/farmer theory related to ADD and ADHD. He has also created a couple highly successful businesses and founded the The New England Salem Children's Village which he and his wife eventually expanded to relief programs serving around the globe. Oh, and in his spare time he has written/co-authored over 20 books (some best sellers) as well as appearing on television shows and movies.
Thanks Thom Hartmann for standing up for women`s rights and "the right to choose". It is (should be) a Human Right to have control over your own body = own destiny/life. Also, nobody who is against abortion can be against CONTRACEPTIVES without admitting that they are against women`s rights altogether. People who are against contraceptives want to force women back into their "traditional" place as second class citizens who`s sole role is to be wives and mothers.
It was modern contraceptives that freed women to have choices and to live a free life outside the house. It was contraceptives that gave women the opportunity to learn/study, get a good job of their choosing etc. Without them, women are slaves to their biology. People who are against abortions AND also contraceptives are well aware of that. THEY are no fools. WE are fools if we are not able to see through their "pro life" mirage.
They sure don't care about life after it comes out of the birth canal.
Listen to the ballad of Tim Murphy who pontificated about his pro-life, anti-abortion principles. These principles were from the heart and abortion was against the will of God. It was an anathema which needed to be outlawed...
...until his mistress thought that she was pregnant and he had a change of heart.
Alix Mordant
Viable fetus is not a woman's own body.
There is no shortage people not only willing but eager to adopt children. It's the laws governing the issues that make it nearly impossible stateside, so people go to other countries if they want to adopt.
As far as I know, there is no effort to ban contraceptives. In this regard, nobody's trying to take away the choice - people are only not prepared to pay for choices of somebody else.
Rob F
Nonsense.
There is plenty of people who not just care but are eager to adopt babies. It's the laws that make it nearly impossible.
what about the baby's rights???
Great show...love you as always Bill, and thank you so much for having Tom Hartman on, and Rampen (not sure of her name) was great...too
Major takeaway: I like listening to Thom Hartmann and looking at Catherine Rampell.
Thank you once again for the prompt upload....It's greatly appreciated..
Thom was fired up
I not only love this show, I admire this show.
“Nope I don’t want to better anymore I want to win” 3:40 that’s the mindset that got us here it’ll be interesting to see if it gets us out.
Your the best Bill Maher!!! This year shows have been awesome!!! Many thanks!!!!
PJ O'Rourke is well past his pull date.
He looks like he's about to collapse
You are, libtard!
PJ O'Rourke is one of the good republicans. (They existed in the past, pre-order teaparty). He is also hilarious...I'm a pretty hard core liberal, but he cracks me up literally, as in lol while reading a book. One thing I appreciate is that he doesn't deserve his comments for just one side. He is actually a guy that can bring opposing views closer because he's so honest and funny. You should read some of his stuff.
I thought he was entertaining and reasoned. I also thought he was drunk.
Kevin W PJ is always drunk on Bill Maher lol
No, the Medicare for All bill made perfect sense if you got a paycheck, paid for private insurance or struggled with underemployment. That opinion editorialist works for Bezos and in order to keep her job, must belittle populism and make false equivalencies between nationalism and socialism in order to maintain the status quo.
Funny how even Michael Moore didn't mention the Mercatus (sp?) study in support of the bill and the politicians championing it. That study tried it's damnedest to say that the savings over a decade would be negligible. They failed. Medicare for All does work, worldwide. We just have to sacrifice the private insurers and make them productive instead of extractive.
I loved Bill Maher and Politically Incorrect twenty years ago. I still watch it to grind my teeth and have material ready for the inherent criticism that the courtier Left uses to "feel (the voter's) pain" while supporting liberal elitism that the Right abhors.
No wonder why this empire is crumbling.
Longest temper tantrum in history, LOL!
Bring Thom Hartmann back on. He's great! 👍
1 year into the Biden presidency and it's amazing how far off Michael Moore is in this video
We don't want more centrist or moderate dems!! Which is really just a round about way of saying Corporatists disguised as democrats.. Which has took over both parties btw..
When he said we need more centrist dems, he was talking about how most Americans are pretty left so we need to bring the democratic party to the center of what most Americans already believe because the party has been pulled too far right. It's more of a word frame then anything else.
@Rawkstar No, we just need more dems with a plan and common sense and that can't be said for Bernie bros.
Bill Maher still can't figure out what's going on with progressives in this country it's friggin hilarious. Put down the bong for an afternoon and watch CZcams it's pretty obvious. "I didn't know 70% wanted Medicare For All". Genius
Dude, the Dem Socialists are losing more primaries then they're winning.
that makes sense, people who immigrate 'legally' to U.S. from other socialist Countries would not want to live in a DEM Socialist Country.
Man I really want someone from tyt to be on this panel.
Oh, how I adore Michael Moore! He should run for office!
Thom Hartmann!!!
I don't know why she made it a point to insist on Bernie's math not adding up. What's actually RELEVANT:
1) He at least attempted to have an actual plan, which is more than we can say for anyone in the GOP;
2) The GOP spends insane amounts of money on ridiculous military products/contracts that we don't need, gives insane amounts of corporate welfare, and never feels the need to justify the math that obviously adds to our deficit;
3) We already have tons of solid research concluding that the US wastes more money on healthcare than other developed nations and the system remains crap, unfair, and leaves people uninsured; and
4) Bernie would have the SENSE to hire competent, intelligent economists/advisors at the top of their fields who WOULD know how to work out the details.
She smears Bernie in every article she writes related to democrats. She’s known for being anti-Bernie. It’s like what she’s known for. She’s an elitist, privileged little brat who got her job for the wrong reasons.
Nice "Drop the Mike" at video's end, Bill.
I love Catherine. Tough smart sensible straight forward lady. Wish she ran for Office.
Cut the hand outs to the rich!
❤️Thom Hartmann❤️
I wish we could have heard more from him though. The American public needs to learn ACTUAL history from this man. The stuff in books taught in school is all a little distorted a la to-the-victor-go-the-spoils
Yes, it was great to see him there and he made good points. But the other panellists talked a lot (but said little) and took up lots of the air-time. Thom Hartmann should be invited again (and talk more).
Great panel.
“Who cares. Just say it. We will figure it out later.” Wow, what an intelligent statement.
Thom!!!!
The most Progressive voice we have here in America 3 hours a day on freespeech.org
Centrist is code for corporate
Most folks who say they hate Michael Moore have never seen any of his Movies and when I ask what has he ever lied about, I've never gotten an answer.
Michael Moore - figure out what they want and "tell them" its free and you will deliver it. What you really do does not matter.
Catherine Rampell is hot!!!
Learn MOdern monetary theory. Federal govt can pay and afford it all. US govt does not need to tax or borrow in USD. US govt is the monopoly issuer of the USD. It can pay for all programs, free college, free health care and forever back social security.

“The dog caught the car” is the greatest description of trump voter, period.
"Say free college, we´ll figure out how to pay for it later". Yeah, that is great politics.
and yet it works.
@Tim Menke Of course it works, its called populism.
Like the recent tax cut / creating a ridiculous deficit??
@Barbara D´Ascenzo Precisely.
Yeah.. it is. Details are for governing, not campaigning. Duh. That's like.. the fucking basics.

Someone should have countered her on her talking points regarding Bernie's math. Like him or don't his proposals were serious.
Michael Moore is brilliant
Hello.
This was a great show this evening sir. Indeed its brillance shined as its up front truth in Bills moments in particular should ALWAYS be mimiked in the press daily. I am. Of the opinion you and Michael should partake in a venture that perhaps showcases the harsh reality of the narssassistic leader in his immidiate dangers in an avangard sort of humerous way. On HBO
Good luck.
The Middle Class is disappearing because couples are getting divorced is the second most stupid statement I’ve heard this week, the first one being storms are wet.
The main reason the middle class is disappearing is because big companies keep getting bigger, they are selling everyday necessities to the whole population and its impossible competing with them, local hardware stores, pharmacies, super markets, whatever it is now it is owned by the same company nationwide, how could there ever be a middle class in this situation, you can’t compete with them so you must work for them, and the reward ? A lousy wage that only helps to survive without having hope of ever reaching the long forgotten middle class legend.
As long as companies can grow without a limit, as long as the can be worth whatever they can achieve, the only outcome eventually will be that only 10 companies will exists and they will own everything purchasable, the only way of making this world a place were the economy of all the individuals is more balanced is by putting a cap on how much revenue a company of any sort can make, and after reaching this cap they cannot grow any bigger. Unless this happens we are doomed for failure in the long run, which sadly is not that long.
Oh, ok then, im sorry, I guess you are right and im wrong, what was I thinking ? Lets help big companies get bigger so we can all work for them then :)
5 years under the Walton regime and I approve this message. @a.m.remorse
We even recently had asian investors inspecting our store a few months ago.
They were very pleased with the store's "productivity" or in layman's terms, our ability to operate under a bare bones staff.
Come on Mr. My Rat, are just trolling ? Why are you lobbying in favor of our current situation ? Are you getting paid ?
Cause what im saying is pretty obvious, imagine that the cap for any company is 100 million dollars a year, the owner of any company with a 100 million dollar cap would have a pretty lavish lifestyle. and if this was the case Walmart would be forced to have and X amount of stores and that gives field to other people to own supermaket chains and when they reach that 100 million cap they stop growing, same thing for Home depot, fedex, walgreens, costco, amazon, coca-cola, you name it, Pepsi Co owns so many companies its not even funny.
If there were a cap there would be so many regional stores which would pay better wages, there would be more suppliers of the products you see in any type of store, money would spread out to more people, more families would have a better life style and democracy would be more effective.
I wonder what your reply is going to be :)
+Nate Mauratt "Nobody works for a poor person" I can tell you've never had a job lol go out and get one instead of quoting turning point usa or watching "feminazis OWNED videos". The chances of your employer owning a yaht and eating caviar in the Mediterranean on the weekends are gonna be slim to none pal.
Bear in mind that the GOP is against a minimum wage.
We've gotten to the point where having MM advocate is a liability.
“When you buy a car you don’t know how you’re gonna pay for it” well isn’t that the problem Mike?
Ask 70ish year olds about "free city college." I know a few in New York City who told me it was free when they were college age (just like it was for Bernie, Hillary and Trump if they'd needed it instead of a private college or University) Tax incentives can always offset some of these costs. Corporations like Microsoft for example can provide computers. My son's elementary school had free video game systems available for the children in Harlem. It's a matter of political will and priorities. We've slipped so far down the ladder in terms of education compared to the rest of the world, we need to catch up to stay competitive globally!
Katherine Rampell is 100% wrong on both messaging and policy. When you run on the kind of messaging she would advocate, a sort of centrist pragmatism, you will lose. She's also wrong about the policy, take Medicare for all, that is a serious policy.. It's a legitimate system that works in the majority of similarly economically developed countries. What we CAN'T afford to do is keep the same system we have now. It's already THE MOST expensive system per capita in the world. You know when you won't be able to do that? While you let Republicans cut taxes and inflate the defense budget for another 6+ years because you have no f'ing clue how to win an election. (See the last decade of Democrats losing 1000+ seats across the board)
Isn't it obvious that removing insurance companies would make the whole system cheaper by exactly the amount of insurance company profits? In what way is that not cheaper?
Bill, did you know that T. Carlson has Swedish ancestries. One of his ancestors was famous for inventing the toilet seat. Wait a minute, it took a Norwegian to put the hole in it
I've always despised PJ O'Rourke. First, because he's not funny. And second, he has no serious ideas at all.
Read "Give War A Chance". That book is hilarious.
I read it when I worked in a bookstore in the 90s. I thought the humor was really adolescent and didn't even rise to the level of wit (no offense).
I wish Bill would stop having PJ O'Rourke on the show. Most of what O'Rourke says is anti-intellectual and unfunny. I can't stand listening to him.
It's a fascinating look at current Republicans who can't make a serious point about any issue, so resort to joking around the whole time as their distraction for having nothing of substance to say.
Catherine is a beast! There is no one on television like her. She is intensely intelligent and really understands economics. She shreds Stephen Moore on the regular! She is awesome!
I have to disagree. She clearly has not read Bernie's healthcare plan. United States is already spending almost twice as much per person as the next highest spending developed Nation.
Before obamacare, it was unknown exactly what the profit percentage was for healthcare insurance companies. The reason for that is a bill passed in 1946 called the McCarran Ferguson act which prevented the national government for regulating the insurance industry. This law was passed immediately after the first successful antitrust lawsuit against a group of insurance companies was validated by the US supreme Court.
Obamacare limits the "overhead" that medical insurance companies can charge to about 38%. Contrast that to switzerland. And Switzerland all the insurance is private: there is no government owned insurance. New paragraph but since Switzerland does not have a McCarran Ferguson act, the government is able to limit insurance industry overhead to 8%.
In an interview with one of Switzerland's two largest health insurance companies, the American interviewer asked the Swiss healthcare executive if it bothered him to have his profit margin limited to 8%. The Swiss executive started laughing. He asked,
"In what other in what other industry am I guaranteed any profit at all?"
The television series was called sick around the world.
How do we pay for all of the Endless Wars? Nobody ever asks that question do they? We just fuckin pay for them!
Buncha clowns. Same platitudes since 1990s.
Great show! Though I will never understand why the show is produced the way it is.
Why would you have Michael Moore on for a few minutes at the beginning, and a few minutes at the end?
This just makes no sense...
TheHua89 I think they probably offered him a spot on the debate panel (he’s been on the panels in the past I seem to recall) and he politely refused for whatever reason. But really, Michael Moore is a filmmaker more than a public policy wonk so I doubt he’d have added too much to the debate. He’s one of the show’s big-name guests who came to hawk their book or movie or TV show or album.
because he has to eat every few minutes.
Thom Hartmann ROCKS.
“British Conservatives are not crazy like American Conservatives”
Well, not for lack of trying…
