I have an idea around graduated property taxes, where Wall Street investors with mass ownership would pay a greater proportion then owners of just 1-2 home. This could possibly be combined with subsidies for first time homebuyers. Is this viable?
Great Q&A session. I hope that if Harris - Walz wins in November that the new administration consider ideas from Andrew Yang, Dean Phillips and Will Hurd. Best of luck!
I was very disappointed The Forward Party didn't endorse their own candidate for US President... Now I know why. I choose to support RFK Jr for 2024 because he isn't supported by corrupt corporations. We need to vote Independent and choose candidates with good ideas NOT just to beat Trump. Robert Kennedy will beat both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris in 2024🇺🇸❤️😎 I am now a registered member of We The People Party in North Carolina as of this morning 😁 America needs new leaders 🎉🇺🇸 We can be the positive change our country needs! Thanks.
Very disappointed in the defeatist attitude you're giving here towards third-party/independent candidates. If we're ever going to escape the stranglehold of the corrupt duopoly, people NEED to hear that they do NOT have to pick their poison. We the people still have a say, no matter how much they try to convince us otherwise!
I am very disappointed in AY for not paying attention to the campaign of Bobby and Nicole as a former yang gang. Here some facts as of today turned the over 100,000 volunteers turned in over 1 million signatures for from all 50 states and DC. Now we have 150,000 volunteers covering the whole USA phone banking together twice a week making 1000’s of call for donation, votes and more supports. No other candidate has ever done that in the whole history of the USA. Bobby and Nicole are the first ticket to do their own individual long form podcasts with experts in their fields to get ideal and fixing our country. What happen in 2016, will repeat. With another non politician winning the election. Because first the media ignore them, then smear them and give them no plate form. But we don’t need them. Kennedy listens to his volunteers and let them run with their ideal. Don’t under estimate the power of the people
@@bobby45825 No, I don't want the country to be ruled by the densely packed cities with its urban monoculture. I want some balance between that and the rest of the country.

Kamala Harris is a really good candidate and has some great policy proportions like the child tax Credit and the 500$ tax Credit for low income families. She is in the same lane as Andrew Yang regarding her excitement about innovation.
But she’s still different with him because Andrew when he ran for president basically just argued for UBI and making lame excuses how the pharmaceutical companies exist so they have so much power to deal with so let’s just give everyone 1000$ rather than tackling the pharmaceutical companies by pushing for universal healthcare while Harris acknowledges that you need to have structural change.
I think that Yang is right to endorse kamala. Even though having her as a president won't improve our cause directly, it will give us more time to grow our party. Another trump term could cause irreparable damage. Not that the democrats are all for third parties, but I think they would be more accommodating than trump. I know this seems like just giving up and settling for the lesser of two evils, but yang is just being realistic. We aren't going to have ranked choice voting / viable third party candidates available for the next presidential election, but kamala is the best candidate for getting them. As he puts it, he's staying focused on real solutions, being pragmatic etc..
I want to believe andrew is a centrist but his bizarre "orange man bad" mentality, while simultaneously pretending joe biden or Kamala are "way better" is TRULY baffling. We need a centrist 3rd party candidate with Andrew's commitment to facts and data but significantly stronger charisma. America is clearly biased towards strong personalities.
When was Andrew ever a centrist? His policies were far more progressive than most of the Democratic field when he was running in that Primary. I think he still supports most of the policies he put forward at that time.
@@BeauSmithFtl He was nothing like the sound bite democrats in 2019. Using facts and data, alone, just to determine his policies, was the 1 thing that instantly made him stand out from all of the other dems. Besides, he himself said that he ran as a democrat because 3rd party is still shunned in this country and the system is rigged against them.
@@bobby45825 When did he become a centrist? His policies were far more progressive than most of the Democratic field when he was running in that Primary. I think he still supports most of the policies he put forward at that time.
I can't believe you endorsed Kamela. RFKJr is my choice despite many don't think he has a chance. He is so much better for America despite that opinion. Kamela will do nothing for America. It's more of the same with continued wars and continued indebtedness makes her a very poor choice. As far as I can see, Kamala will not be running the country since it will continue to be the Democratic benefactors who will continue. No one on either side will get rid of Citizens United to alter what has happened to our country and it is no different whether it be Democrats or Republicans in the White House. Differences are minor and you of all people should realize that.
If all we do is talk about giving a basic level ubi then we are not creating an actual accurate system that is bipartisan because the Republicans care about the economy and they are conservative so that's why basing the total Ubi off the total automated production percentage of the GDP and calculating how much tools have helped us increase our production percentage and how many humans it would take to reproduce that production percentage without those tools we can figure out how much Ubi we should be getting based off those productivity increases due to inventions and tools. We can slowly ramp up to the amount of Ubi we should be receiving we can change the natural born citizen status so we don't have to make a one world government in order to have this policy work because otherwise everyone would be coming to America for the Ubi and having kids who would be eligible for Ubi so we need to change the natural born citizen status so at least one parent has to be a citizen of the United States and they must be born in the United States in order to be considered a natural born citizen eligible for Ubi benefits without further Hoops to jump through. This puts up basically a financial money wall for the southern border crisis and values the citizens over the illegals who have broken the law to come to America and came across our borders illegally... this is bipartisan and pure logic plus it makes more of a Melting Pot of cultures instead of cultural isolation like we see today because illegals will need citizens for a successful family in America. This means they will speak better English.
republicans do not care about the economy. republicans continually prove they only care about enriching themselves and accepting money-bribes from the rich. the people who need ubi are not rich therefore republicans do not support ubi.

Why aren’t you supporting RFK?
because he is nutso crazy
Because he'd be excommunicated from all left-leaning media like Tulsia Gabbard after she pointed out Kamala's horrible prosecutor career
Excellent question!
because he dumped a dead bear in central park as a "funny joke" which only further demonstrates his lack of respect for living things.
@@robinnovak7457 i second this. its odd that he doesn't support him. maybe he cant

That's not true. He's said that he's pro-vaccine, but that there needs to be more transparency in the development and the safety of vaccines.

Lost me when you endorsed Kamala Harris.
It's definitely bizarre. It's really hard to call Andrew a centrist when he consistently pivots and sides with mainstream democrat choices.
@@bobby45825 When did he become a centrist? His policies were far more progressive than most of the Democratic field when he was running in that Primary. I think he still supports most of the policies he put forward at that time.
Did you even try to understand why?
@@MrCBTman Andrew's "orange man bad" rhetoric goes against everything he preached in 2019. Negative partisanship is ripping this country apart.
@@bobby45825 No it doesn’t. The bad orange man was one of his primary reasons for running for president. He’s been anti-Trump from the beginning.

Endorsing Kamala is the last straw. Can't take Yang seriously anymore. Bye gang.
