That guy pointing out that Hasan thought this was a joke didn't understand what he was trying to do. By cracking jokes constantly, he made sure this hearing would be watched by tons of people, which would raise awareness on the issue. He succeeded.
That tie-neck Duffy was conflating "I'm making jokes" with "I'm not being serious about the points I'm making." He thinks you can't make jokes and also make a point seriously. Which really says something about Duffy's sense of humor and his ability to comprehend the things people say generally. If a person can't hear someone's point without being so waylaid by the way they say it, then they're not a good listener and shouldn't be in charge of representing people, where you're supposed to fucking listen.
you can be professional and laugh. Professionalism, that is when an individual conducts themselves in a manner consistent with the competence or skill expected of said professional, has nothing to do with laughing or smiling, unless you're in a job where those things are strictly prohibited or very much out of place (funeral directors making dead grandfather jokes would be HIGHLY unprofessional, primary school teachers laughing about pedophilia would not only be unprofessional but also call in to question their ability to properly do their job). I don't think there's anything about being a lawyer or politician that indicates that to be competent or skilled in that position, you can't laugh.

Yeah I used to think it was the WW2 generation and before who pulled the "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" bullshit the most because the boomer during the 60s were like "fuck it man, the systems gonna fuck you anyway"...but if you think about it the WW1 generation was gonna burn down DC if the vets didnt get benifits (see: "bonus marches") and Eisenhower had the bighest tax on the rich ever...but the Boomer fuckers are the worst at the "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" bullshit. Alot of the newer generation of Americans are cooler. And Waters an old black woman still screwed his name up but the younger black woman next to him caught it and looked over at him instantly. Generations are a trip man.
Not all of us are completely out of touch. One thing to remember is that the trend of making college impossible for all but the richest started back in the early 80's. We called it Reaganomics. Now it is called business as usual. And yes, when I look at these old white guys running things, I am appalled to realize that many of them are my age. When I started college, during the Carter administration, a union carpenter's daughter could pay for everything with a Pell Grant, which was available to middle to low-income students. When Reagan became president, suddenly Pell grants practically disappeared, and you had to borrow, or be independently wealthy to finish college. At the same time, tuition started ballooning, while wages stagnated. This was not something the Boomers started, but maybe we were asleep at the wheel when it started happening. However, blaming a generation for the structure of our economy is not productive. Look at all the things Millenials get blamed for. Is it all true? NO. I can think of a couple Millenials who definitely are making a difference. Look at AOC and Ilhan Omar. When I was their age, it was unthinkable that a working class girl could get elected to Congress, and they did it WITHOUT corporate money. If you don't like how people are running things, then maybe you young folks should get up there and help them run it. It is your future at stake. I wish you well.

I grew up hearing that going to college was essential. I HAD to work my ass off and get good grades to get into a good college. It was the responsible thing to do. Despite good grades, I couldn't afford college. So I joined the army, because, I was told, they would pay for my college. But after I got out, it wasn't even close to enough money to get my degree. So I borrowed the rest, because the college promised it provided career experts that would help me find a job. After getting my masters, the only thing those experts found for me were unpaid internships, which I worked, for years, because the people I slaved away for promised my efforts would lead to a good job. It didn't. So I was told that what I REALLY needed to do was learn coding. So, I did. More debt. And everywhere I tried to get a job coding, I'm told I'm too old to start in that field. Now, I'm an Uber driver, drowning in college debt, listening to people born with a silver spoon in their mouth telling me how irresponsible it was that I did any of that.

This is just amazing to see that a person raised an issue in a satire show and that was picked by Congress and they actually invited him to testify. what a way to make an impact on society and government policies.

what you're talking about right there is what we all desperately hope for when we support certain politicians, that they will fight for us even if our struggles aren't exactly the same.
Even with a degree nowadays most people still get pay minimum wage or a dollar/two more than minimum wage only. It ain’t worth spending thousands of dollars on a degree when you’re only getting pay 1 or 2 dollar more than minimum wage. Some can’t even find a job.

This was good and very accurate. My tuition at Nebraska Lincoln on scholarship was $4,000 a semester back in the late 80’s. Something my parents apparently never thought to budget for. Thankfully, I obtained a track scholarship and that was paid for over 4 years. All I had to do was perform and keep my grades up. It’s ridiculous that North Americans want the best and brightest to excel, but won’t pay for ALL who want higher education. Then the bill at the end of it is handed to the graduate and good luck in finding a well paying job to pay it back!
Hasan man we indians are proud of you standing up for the issues middle class americans are facing and you make our Indian ethnicity city proud and who would have balls to counter jokes in congress oh my god . You are GOAT
He completely misunderstood why Hasan was cracking jokes. The comedy makes the discourse more accessible to regular people, which is incredibly valuable.
Yeah I cringed. I get that she's a busy woman and all and didn't mean to be disrespectful but it would have taken like 5 seconds to look up how to pronounce his name beforehand. I'd be so embarrassed
Literally, I can't believe a chairman got pissed when Hasan is talking openly about a political issue, with great points and research, and pointing out the flaws of white supremacy and the abuse of the system. He ain't joking when he making you look like a clown sir
roses_in_sonder He’s not talking openly about a political issue, he’s insisting that student loan debt is an issue of politics rather than an issue of shameful youth indulging in communistic tendencies just so they won’t have to worry about their crippling debt they gave themselves
It’s stupid how they’re treating him like a joke when he’s just throwing casual jokes here and there to lighten up the tense atmosphere. Mans legit spitting facts and they treat him like a joke coz he’s a comedian. Also it’s CRAZY how they expect an 18 year old to know a lot about loans when they just graduated from high school and are entering college. Like???? You expect a kid who briefly learned about student loans in school to make the best decisions? That’s plain stupid
As some one who has worked in subprime loan, I have come across people making stupid decisions, even after having multiple bankruptcies in their credit reports. And that's when they have yearly household income or revenue, which are considered reasonable, and above median. So I would say, people don't register the fact they have to be responsible when managing their finances, even when they are grown ups. College kids are definitely an easy target in the hands of predatory loan retailers. If the students can't find anything better than minimum wage or some thing in their line of study, they get stuck with the debt for a better part of their productive life. They delay buying their first house, committing to a relationship, and most commonly, either delay or avoid having kids till they find a solid base. And let's say, if you miss couple of months paychecks in between, it's end of story for most, since their credit score drops to less than 600. And then there is the payday loans, and other vulture lenders waiting with 19.99% and up, loan products to hit that final nail, putting their life in misery or even worse homeless.
I graduated HS in 2008. Literally EVERYONE told me to go to school. Went for 1 year and it just wasn't for me. I shit you not we are just paying the last bill in 2020. I'm not the only one too or some idiot. Shit happens. People are still paying their loans off or never will. I have a wife and we don't want kids. If we did I don't know how we would afford one let alone send them to college.
That's the point. 18 year olds in america are meant to 'know better' and be 'smart enough' yet you're not even allowed to drink because your laws don't believe you are responsible at that age but also want you to make big decisions about money and elections. It's similar in the UK. there were banks who misinformed and practically forced students to sign up with a bank and use an overdraft facility, during the fresher fair. They strong armed students and told them to open up accounts which "they could close later if they wanted to". They were also sold the overdraft facility with "zero interest" and didn't tell them about the interest rates that would be implemented later on, nor did they inform them about the minimum amount they had to pay in each month when using that over draft facility or the minimum amount they had to pay in or pay out to keep the account "active" or their account would be closed. Social expectations keep students and the general public zombies to follow what's always been done which keeps them stupid because nobody questions it, so banks cant profit on their decisions they make. Loan companies limit the decisions students allowed to make by giving them either misinformation, that's still legal, like their selling opinionated advice and them adding a disclaimer, but also pushing them to make a decision at that time, or not informing them at all, and expecting them to read and understand the terms and conditions, that's written in jargon, to purposely make it hard for any student leaving high school to understand, but also make it difficult for any general working class person to fully understand. Then the blame is misdirected towards parents, "who should have been better informed" to educate their children. Then they blame kids for wanted to go to university when they can't afford it. It's a system that pushes forward a culture that only benefits the rich. It's gatekeeping who can and can't go to university. You can only go so far in certain fields without a university degree. Most jobs, you can work your way up, but having a qualification and work experience will make an employer choose them over the person with just experience because of the value of credentials. You literally can't become a doctor without going to school for it. Anything in medicine, law or education needs a degree. Work experience can only teach you so much. University isn't necessary for most things but there is a social culture which will gatekeep your opportunities in both ways if you attend and if you don't attend.
kritika bhasin true. I could see Duffy’s perspective of how he is trying to say his claims and such in his five minutes, but he does need to calm down. Hisan is no politician or such but he is a citizen who does know his facts for the most part. He as well used comedic topics to allow him to get the attention of audience members, which is smart in my opinion.
Would you rather him answer congress the way everyone does by dodging questions, answering with vague statements, taking the first minute to thank everybody in the room individually and then point out how great the question is but then go into a long winded response that answers nothing?
When I went to a good college in 1974 It was $3,000 a year plus Pell grants. Graduate school was 15,000 a year for a good graduate school. The cost of college is outrageous and unjustified In my view. College is a business and no other businesses have ballooned in cost the way our colleges have. Also if students are going to go into economic servitude They better be very targeted on what kind of a job they can get when they get out. It's no longer an economy or a society where students can be creative and invest in education that doesn't bring in the dollars after graduating. It's not fair to society and it's not fair to future generations!

THIS, all that "college prep" class bull that I took was only for the educational side of college. Where is the class on how to protect myself financialy? Could i have looked this up myself? Sure. But like many others at age 17 or 18 I TRUSTED when my guidance councellor or my mother who just "knew" college was the right choice told me to just get a loan and everything would be fine and that my job's income would cover it.

I think i pay around a grand in loans per month with my grandparents helping me on a few of them. (proud software engineer btw)
What Mr Duffy doesn’t understand at all, is that Hasan Minhaj is not cracking jokes because he doesn’t find the situation serious, he’s cracking jokes because he finds the situation absolutely absurd!
I love this. Including the levity Hassan treated it with. Finding humour around the situation is not the same as finding humour in the situation, and it can help in breaking some of the tensions
@@anonymoussecret5948 That's true. I don't think anyone would say that Jon Stewart and Colbert aren't comedians, but when they testified they were much more incisive. Even when Colbert was in character, he was still pointed. And Stewart, when he gets angry he gets laser focused and does not diminish his points by "trying to lighten the mood" because the mood shouldn't be lightened. There were still "jokes" but they were deadly. Hasan did OK, but I think he did diminish some of his points by injecting needless asides. I think that's a confidence thing, Hasan's been around for a little while but he's not nearly as established as Stewart and Colbert were when they testified. Also, possibly, a slow-simmering anger and frustration thing vs a "still optimistic" thing. For some reason we don't take optimists as seriously as we take pessimists.
Hasan is not only a very clever, funny comedian, he's a very engaged political person too. It is a pleasure to listen to his arguments about the student loan crisis.
Because if you're a junior ranking member of a committee, particularly of the minority party, you're not likely to be able to get an extension on your time just because the panelist took it up with jokes.
why was it cheaper? Because a lot less people were going to college before the government started subsidizing it. in other words it's as much the fault of the govt as it is to everyone who participated in the scheme, including the students. Yall are the one's paying these stupid prices
@@raulsanches3619 got it so these young children shouldnt go to college which is nearly a modern day necessity for most financial careers and struggle even more financially while also lacking substantial education, to any person this sounds unreasonable and i think you should give your opinion a bit more thought
Most Congress hearings are such a waste of young peoples’ time. He’s trying to teach dinosaurs English and tell them about the modern world. God bless him!
I never knew Hasan did this but I am so grateful that he did. He sums up many of the problems very well and his use of comedy in between not only makes it entertaining but helps make his points more impactful. While he may not have had answers or experience with refinancing loans etc. I loved the way he simple stated "I don't know about refinancing loans but I'm good at excel" lol etc. cause, he's not required to know and also neither do the 17/18 year olds that are signing their lives away and getting under soul crushing student loan debt. Using comedy the way he did does make what he is saying more impactful, more memorable, and also shows just how stupid and broken the current system is. Think about it. A comedian had to go to Congress to tell them about some of the major issues that student loan borrowers face and all they did was ask questions. They are a joke themselves so the right person to talk to these clowns is a comedian. Hasan is an intelligent man and definitely has my respect, especially after this. Thanks for being our voice Hasan.

The lady behind him on the left was loving it too.
I enjoyed his whole speech without even getting bored for a second.
Oh man. what a confidence this man has. and how passionate he's about the issues that he raises in his shows. This is just amazing to see that a person raised an issue in a satire show and that was picked by Congress and they actually invited him to testify. what a way to make an impact on society and government policies. I wish this day comes in India in near future where there will be healthy discussions rather that shitty TV debates and comedy and riots inside Parliament.
I love the fact that he is fighting for something that doesn't even affect him directly because he understands that it affects millions of Americans! He is the best!

Even with a degree nowadays most people still get pay minimum wage or a dollar/two more than minimum wage only. It ain’t worth spending thousands of dollars on a degree when you’re only getting pay 1 or 2 dollar more than minimum wage. Some can’t even find a job. Everything he said is true and I love how he shut a lot of them up.
Shit I saw a job in my local area that makes 13.50 an hour and required a master's degree like...that shit ain't even gonna cover your loan paymenyd
While you likely will start at minimum wage, the degree should at least give you the opportunity to move up and develop a career.
@@Rileynjudkins That's pretty bad. Similarly saw jobs in my field that along with a B.S. required you to travel. They did not provide compensation for your gas milage or boarding. They paid $7.50/hr.

This was good and very accurate. My tuition at Nebraska Lincoln on scholarship was $4,000 a semester back in the late 80’s. Something my parents apparently never thought to budget for. Thankfully, I obtained a track scholarship and that was paid for over 4 years. All I had to do was perform and keep my grades up. It’s ridiculous that North Americans want the best and brightest to excel, but won’t pay for ALL who want higher education. Then the bill at the end of it is handed to the graduate and good luck in finding a well paying job to pay it back!

I'm sorry that I didn't see the ex-Premier of Prince Edward Island, Mike Duffy, present.
He's one of those corporate hacks, that's why he said that.

Haha exactly
It’s stupid how they’re treating him like a joke when he’s just throwing casual jokes here and there to lighten up the tense atmosphere. Mans legit spitting facts and they treat him like a joke coz he’s a comedian. Also it’s CRAZY how they expect an 18 year old to know a lot about loans when they just graduated from high school and are entering college. Like???? You expect a kid who briefly learned about student loans in school to make the best decisions? That’s plain stupid
As some one who has worked in subprime loan, I have come across people making stupid decisions, even after having multiple bankruptcies in their credit reports. And that's when they have yearly household income or revenue, which are considered reasonable, and above median. So I would say, people don't register the fact they have to be responsible when managing their finances, even when they are grown ups.
College kids are definitely an easy target in the hands of predatory loan retailers. If the students can't find anything better than minimum wage or some thing in their line of study, they get stuck with the debt for a better part of their productive life. They delay buying their first house, committing to a relationship, and most commonly, either delay or avoid having kids till they find a solid base. And let's say, if you miss couple of months paychecks in between, it's end of story for most, since their credit score drops to less than 600. And then there is the payday loans, and other vulture lenders waiting with 19.99% and up, loan products to hit that final nail, putting their life in misery or even worse homeless.
I graduated HS in 2008. Literally EVERYONE told me to go to school. Went for 1 year and it just wasn't for me.
I shit you not we are just paying the last bill in 2020. I'm not the only one too or some idiot. Shit happens. People are still paying their loans off or never will.
I have a wife and we don't want kids. If we did I don't know how we would afford one let alone send them to college.
You guys are are learning about student loan in school x?
Coz in Pakistan We never heard of something like student loan in schools!
oh my freaking god so true so so true
That's the point. 18 year olds in america are meant to 'know better' and be 'smart enough' yet you're not even allowed to drink because your laws don't believe you are responsible at that age but also want you to make big decisions about money and elections. It's similar in the UK. there were banks who misinformed and practically forced students to sign up with a bank and use an overdraft facility, during the fresher fair. They strong armed students and told them to open up accounts which "they could close later if they wanted to". They were also sold the overdraft facility with "zero interest" and didn't tell them about the interest rates that would be implemented later on, nor did they inform them about the minimum amount they had to pay in each month when using that over draft facility or the minimum amount they had to pay in or pay out to keep the account "active" or their account would be closed.
Social expectations keep students and the general public zombies to follow what's always been done which keeps them stupid because nobody questions it, so banks cant profit on their decisions they make. Loan companies limit the decisions students allowed to make by giving them either misinformation, that's still legal, like their selling opinionated advice and them adding a disclaimer, but also pushing them to make a decision at that time, or not informing them at all, and expecting them to read and understand the terms and conditions, that's written in jargon, to purposely make it hard for any student leaving high school to understand, but also make it difficult for any general working class person to fully understand.
Then the blame is misdirected towards parents, "who should have been better informed" to educate their children. Then they blame kids for wanted to go to university when they can't afford it. It's a system that pushes forward a culture that only benefits the rich. It's gatekeeping who can and can't go to university. You can only go so far in certain fields without a university degree. Most jobs, you can work your way up, but having a qualification and work experience will make an employer choose them over the person with just experience because of the value of credentials. You literally can't become a doctor without going to school for it. Anything in medicine, law or education needs a degree. Work experience can only teach you so much. University isn't necessary for most things but there is a social culture which will gatekeep your opportunities in both ways if you attend and if you don't attend.
Love this guy I believe hes very intelligent and quite a genius.
Kudos to Hassan Minhaj for raising such a big issue infront of Congress.
Mr. Duffy needs to chill. This is how Hasan literally lives his life. He explains everything in his own comedic way.
kritika bhasin true. I could see Duffy’s perspective of how he is trying to say his claims and such in his five minutes, but he does need to calm down. Hisan is no politician or such but he is a citizen who does know his facts for the most part. He as well used comedic topics to allow him to get the attention of audience members, which is smart in my opinion.
kritika bhasin I think he was just annoyed because Hasan was talking over him
@@spicy7724 True. If I hadn't seen that ep of Patriot Act I wouldn't be as informed on how bad it is as I am now
Would you rather him answer congress the way everyone does by dodging questions, answering with vague statements, taking the first minute to thank everybody in the room individually and then point out how great the question is but then go into a long winded response that answers nothing?
Well said kritika bhasin .
5 min is plenty for Hassan. He speaks twice as fast as a regular fast talking person.

When I went to a good college in 1974 It was $3,000 a year plus Pell grants. Graduate school was 15,000 a year for a good graduate school.
The cost of college is outrageous and unjustified In my view. College is a business and no other businesses have ballooned in cost the way our colleges have. Also if students are going to go into economic servitude They better be very targeted on what kind of a job they can get when they get out. It's no longer an economy or a society where students can be creative and invest in education that doesn't bring in the dollars after graduating.
It's not fair to society and it's not fair to future generations!

Student loan awareness should be taught in High School.
THIS, all that "college prep" class bull that I took was only for the educational side of college. Where is the class on how to protect myself financialy? Could i have looked this up myself? Sure. But like many others at age 17 or 18 I TRUSTED when my guidance councellor or my mother who just "knew" college was the right choice told me to just get a loan and everything would be fine and that my job's income would cover it.
spoiler alert, it didnt and now i struggle to pay back 70k+ while thinking of starting a family with my wife who waited 5 long years to get married when we had some money saved up. I think i pay around a grand in loans per month with my grandparents helping me on a few of them. (proud software engineer btw)

@@anonymoussecret5948 That's true. I don't think anyone would say that Jon Stewart and Colbert aren't comedians, but when they testified they were much more incisive. Even when Colbert was in character, he was still pointed. And Stewart, when he gets angry he gets laser focused and does not diminish his points by "trying to lighten the mood" because the mood shouldn't be lightened. There were still "jokes" but they were deadly. Hasan did OK, but I think he did diminish some of his points by injecting needless asides. I think that's a confidence thing, Hasan's been around for a little while but he's not nearly as established as Stewart and Colbert were when they testified.
Also, possibly, a slow-simmering anger and frustration thing vs a "still optimistic" thing. For some reason we don't take optimists as seriously as we take pessimists.

Hasan Respect, thank you❤
I never knew Hasan did this but I am so grateful that he did. He sums up many of the problems very well and his use of comedy in between not only makes it entertaining but helps make his points more impactful.
While he may not have had answers or experience with refinancing loans etc. I loved the way he simple stated "I don't know about refinancing loans but I'm good at excel" lol etc. cause, he's not required to know and also neither do the 17/18 year olds that are signing their lives away and getting under soul crushing student loan debt.
Using comedy the way he did does make what he is saying more impactful, more memorable, and also shows just how stupid and broken the current system is.
Think about it. A comedian had to go to Congress to tell them about some of the major issues that student loan borrowers face and all they did was ask questions. They are a joke themselves so the right person to talk to these clowns is a comedian.
Hasan is an intelligent man and definitely has my respect, especially after this. Thanks for being our voice Hasan.
