  36.  @regulatedfreestylevideos  "with the countless studies of American peoples favorable opinions on medicare for all, paid maternity leave, raising the minimum wage, breaking up big banks, a wealth tax on the super rich, slashing prescription drug prices, etc" One, what studies? Please provide them. As I have seen many times, many people will say "studies say this" but provide nothing. Next, what you are presenting is very vague. On the surface someone may support those ideas, but when you go into details many oppose. That is why when universal healthcare in CO was on the ballot more information was given and the voters voted against it. I assume you might be citing polls, but the problem with polls is that they are vague question on complex issues being asked to people who are not experts. For example, you may poll people if they support raising the min. wage. Ok, maybe on the surface the majority do. But when you start giving a value such as should it be $10/hr, $15/hr, $20/hr, support begins to drop the higher it gets. To add, say a poll supports people raising the min. wage with inflation. This is where people not being experts come in. What method of inflation? CPI, PCE, GDP deflator, Boskin Commission adjusted CPI? And what about the flaws of inflation such as new technology bias or replacement bias? For example, take cars. Cars, on pure sticker price are more expensive compared to many cars in the 60s and 70s. However, cars today last longer, get better gas mileage, are safe all which saves money in the long run. Or consider how we have smart phones that have more computing power than want put a man on the moon and the access to many resources that saves money such as coupons, or online purchasing. This is why "progressive" ideas fall apart. They are grossly oversimplified solutions to complex issues. And when progressives start to push them they fall apart when challenged.

  40.  @regulatedfreestylevideos  where are these studies? At this point the onus is on you to present them. Where should I look up? Fox News? The Daily Wire? This is a problem I have with people here. Someone like you will say "studies" but then present none. If so many studies exist you should be able to provide some. Telling me to do my own research means I can look at anything. It is no different then when Sam Seder, in a debate with Charlie Kirk, told people to "google it" when it came to wages and inflation. Ok, google what? What method of inflation? There are many. What sector when it comes to wages? There are many. \ "the remark about people’s opinions being null if they don’t have a deep economics knowledge is bad" Not saying it is null, saying you should be skeptical. Should we going down the route of uninformed people want? "are you under the impression everyone viewing YouTube has an economics degree? are those stats more believable than polling data?" Nope. And on polling data, I told you why they are unreliable. They are vague questions on complex issues being asked no non experts. And how you phrase the question matters. As I told you, if you were to ask people if everyone deserves access to healthcare in the US many, including me, will say yes. Now if you expand that and ask if the federal government should overtake our healthcare system, which is 20% of our economy, taking away people's insurance, raising taxes, etc., the support will drop. Same with the min. wage. If you ask people it should be raised many will say yes. Now if you say it should be raised to $20/hr many will say no as they will say that is too high. You say progressive policies are popular when little exists to suggest that.
