  1. "All I see is them Condemning both in a half-assed insincere way" What do you want them to do? At this point I just see hate from you as nothing the right does will satisfy you. " I could also Straw man NRA for not calling Philando Castile's death a tragedy," That has nothing to do with the NRA. ", or saying "Guns aren't weapons" " When did they say that? Also, they are a tool in many ways. "We both know that not everyone on either side is like that. For someone who tried to be Nonpartisan and say both sides suck, you don't do very well at hiding your conservative edge." What conservative edge? " BLM doesn't want Cops to stop defending themselves, they want justice for the deaths of people who don't deserve to be killed-" We have a justice system for that. Michael Brown was killed in self defense. Private autopsy showed that. There was another black individual that the cop did not shoot. Alton Sterling had a gun, was resisting arrest, and was reaching for it. BLM marched for these people. I am all for keeping the cops in check. I would support BLM hiring private investigators and lawyers to look into these cases. However, when you still cry and march over cases like the Alton Sterling one that is cut and dry, I cannot take your ideas serious. " they are trying to point out the injustices that occur when people like you believe the cops' word without question," I question the cops. I want every killing by a cop to be fully investigated. We have to do that on keeping the government in check. And if BLM wants to do it for any time a black person is kill than fine. But accept the results. Most of those killings are justified. Also, BLM needs to realize that blacks commit a disproportional amount of violent crime. Blacks have lower high school graduate rates and higher rates of single mothers. Solve some of their own problems.

  2. "So why isn't the minimum wage permanently indexed to inflation? " Because the minimum in the very end is $0.

  3. Daniel Baker, I agree that the min. wage is a different topic all together. But in reality the real min. wage is $0 as if one cannot produce at what the min. wage is by law they will not have a job.

  4.  @discipleofsakura  innocent until proven guilty. That is the standard. Just providing a statement is not evidence. What if someone accused Bernie of something?

  5. Silverfox, this is a huge beat down. That mixed with Trump having success does not sit well for the ultra left.

  6. You can't compare the two. On was NYC (a left wing area) you had a bad justice system. With Crystal that is Texas law. Paul broke a federal law. All cases are treated differently under different laws and different jurisdictions. On last case the law is a minimum 40 years, the judge had no choice. Leftists suck at logic.

  7. Leftist Starbucks are offering benefits and cited the tax cuts for the reasoning. TYT is losing this battle.

  8. This is actually pretty common. Around this time of year there are a lot of temps at companies.

  9. He has a point. How many people work until the end simply because they enjoy it? Also, it shows how much we progressed when someone is able to work for that long. There are arguments to raise the retirement age as we are living longer compared to when SS was developed.

  10. I agree to that statement. Just lay there arms out. At that point you are not a threat at all.

  11. Gun laws exist. NV just expanded their background checks. At this point it is that we need to stop talking about gun laws because the next step is a ban. No gun law would have stopped this shooting besides a ban, period.

  12. Wrong comparison. If the margin of victory is small in voting there should be a recount. I defend that position on both sides.

  13. Medicaid was broke when it started.

  14. Where did Ted lie? Cenk is making a claim but is not citing anything. Point by point 1. Where? Why? 2. In 10 years when the tax cuts expire. We will cross that bridge then 3. Because they pay the most in taxes 4. What loopholes did Trump add? Why do people take Cenk seriously? Also, Cenk has no idea how insurance works.

  15. "Seriously, get universal healthcare, it's cheaper, more efficient and effective" Not true on any of those qualities.

  16. He has been walking the streets for months no problem.

  17. Tyler, leftist honestly believe that the government can lower healthcare prices through negotiation. However, when you look at the student loan program and college tuition I beg to differ.

  18. Tough, they are in charge. Republicans were elected to oppose Obama so they did. The people voted in Trump and republicans so now they are using their power they have.

  19. 100% true.

  20. Leftists have no solution to this. There is a reason why they are so excited right now about gun control, it is because kids were shot. The only time they can push for gun control is after a shooting like this as emotions are high and they can stand on the graves of children and parade around grieving teens to mask all the facts and intellectual conversations. When facts and intellectual conversations are involved the issue is weighted heavily in favor of pro-gun individuals. The questions you asked are legit but you will never receive an intelligent answer.

  21.  @jonathanseale6777  , easy. Hasan starts out by saying he can argue in support of articles 2 and 7, but fails to do so in strong way. His initial defense was a logical fallacy by saying "reasonable human being". He then stated there were issues like bombing of businesses that did not segregate but did not give any examples. He also talks about the "owner class" but again, gives no citations or examples. He then talks about integration schools. A major reason why so few blacks were in schools with more whites because of zoning, not segregation. Hasan is a being very deceptive. I suggest you don't pay attention to him.

  22. Te'sh Jr, there is a reason why you see more money in more demanding fields that are more stressful such as being a doctor. Men can handle it more, or at the very least handle some stressful situations better. I also loved how Hasan said something was not science but never cited a single scientific source in this video. There are many biological an psychological studies that show the differences between men and women.

  23. There are jobs available, people lack skills. When you go in debt to get a liberal arts degree that is your fault. Also, wealth and income are not the same. Anyone who brings up wealth inequality to complain about income inequality are economic illiterates.

  24. The protest is stupid. The issue has been discussed. Police brutality is being exaggerated here. These players cannot give a large list of examples. At this point they are just crying and the players do need to be put in their place. And who is that bearded guy? Get a haircut and a shave. TYT is a mess.

  25. Jeffery, it isn't a false dilemma. Costco pays more because they have limited locations and hours. I live closer to two Walmarts than I do a Costco in my city. Walmarts are open 24 hours, Costco isn't. You can't really compare the two companies. I mean, Google pays more than Costco, why doesn't Costco pay as much as Google does? Also, due to limited hours and locations they have much less employees. Why no complaints about that? 1. Define "poverty wages". 2. Define "decent wages" 3. What? Let me take your cookie example. The CEO hires the immigrant and worker to turn 20 cookies into 20,000 cookies. Yes, the CEO takes 15,000, but now that worker and immigrant have 5,000.

  26. Without food you die, so what about free food? Same with a home.

  27. rouge1ful, the only reason why someone was killed was because BLM and antifa showed up and instigated the crowd. If they don't show up these white supremacists do their thing and leave. No damage and no violence.
    3
  28. Solomon, the counter protestors have a right to protest as well, but they got violent. You can't say they didn't. Fact is that no matter who threw the first punch the second the situation got violent people should have left. They didn't. The white supremacist were there first and antifa showed up and caused a mess. Why couldn't antifa have self control and ignore these white supremacist? Why are you giving them an excuse? Why didn't you just ignore these people?

  29. Money in politics has been a problem since government has existed. It isn't going away. Your best solution is to limit the powers of the government. The founding fathers saw that which is why they drafted the Constitution.

  30. Fine, let them do it at their own state. Why do you have to make it a federal law and force states who don't want it to have it?

  31. Bill Kristol is correct on the politics of healthcare. It is hard to change healthcare that radically as the general population likes the plan they have.

  32. Tonko Kesier, the study is biased and flawed. TYT is reporting on it because it fits their narrative of Trump and his supporters are racist when they aren't. They have no legit argument against Trump and his supporters so they just call them racists.

  33. He is not wrong, there were people who were peaceful and had not part in the violence. To condemn an entire group of people for a few's action is asinine.

  34. The deficit has been high for years. What's the point of this story?

  35. Ana jumps in and starts ranting about taxes and universal healthcare. The other people are trying to dig deep on the issue and Ana goes on talking points. This is why TYT is considered a joke.

  36. If they do report on it the title will be something like "Two individuals rape a girl" if they were white it would be "Two white males brutally rape a young high school age girl"

  37. Look at how the NFL is losing views. This will not go well for Nike. Also, Kaepernick is not going to be back in the NFL. He does not have the make up to be an NFL QB.

  38. They know.

  39. Around 3/4 of funding for roads is state and local. Trump is going to have little influence on toll roads as in if they are going to exist or not.

  40. Debates are where opposing viewpoints are presented and challenged. There are a lot of issues that are not black and white and there is a lot of grey. That is where debates come in.

  41. craig brown, most CEOs, business owners and people who are successful work at least 60 hours a week.

  42. TYT loves race baiting.

  43. They talk about people being slaughtered and it happening often. After Parkland when did we have a mass shooting at that level?

  44. Casshern, because it is a waste of time and money. You are looking for bigfoot at this point.

  45. Naomi Klein does not even know the definition of capitalism. Her book "Shock Doctrine" was ripped apart and she could not even defend herself. People should not be taking economic advice from her.

  46. This Guy, there are several flaws in your argument. "Capitalism is unfortunately a zero sum game many times where one persons gains are always offset by another person's losses or, to put it simply, "you lose, I win"." That is a poor mentality. To start, if you "lose" you should work harder to try to "win", which is vague in many ways. Next, in capitalism to "win"you have to produce for others. Either you are a worker producing for the company you work for and they pay you, or you are someone who is well off producing for society. On the extreme case Bezos "won" because he made shopping easier for millions of people. He gave something to improve society either objectively or subjectively.

  47. Wages have been stagnate for decades? To start, Trump has been in office for only two years. Next, depending on what analysis you use wages have either not kept up with inflation or have. There are multiple ways to look at these numbers. Ana isn't too bright when it comes to stats and economics.

  48. Ragitsu, no scientist denies climate change. The debate is 1. How much is man playing a role 2. Is it even bad 3. If it is bad, what can we do
    3
  49. "Why trust the overwhelming majority of scientists on a scientific issue? " Because scientists support getting politics out of science.
    3
  50. "Policy regarding science shouldn't be based on science" They involve economics as well, and on the issue of climate change scientist know very little about it.
