  1. Every single study ever done has found a gap. Seriously, every single one. Look up any one you can Google, it's just that the gap is single digit when controlled for all variables. It's nowhere near 26% or whatever.

  2. Yeah it's amazing how prevalent that still is yet nobody talks about it.

  3. It's NOT racism. At all. That's the laziest take ever. White people make fun of white people in the summer who don't have a tan. Ask a photo retoucher: light skin people want darker skin, dark skinned people want lighter skin. It's a "grass is greener" type thing. Stop playing the race card.

  4. Not anymore...

  5. It absolutely does exist, 100%. No reputable source has ever done a study that showed otherwise. The thing is, when controlled for all variables it comes in as a single digit difference, not 1/3 like the lying feminists report.

  7. I'm only a minute into this video, but I'm not gonna watch the rest of it if they don't mention the literal thing that causes inflation. I actually came to the comments to see if anyone was mentioning that, because if not, this whole video is literally useless. Other than a short term supply shock, these days inflation only comes from the printing press. It's no wonder we have such a bad policy when for some reason, the media does not want to acknowledge that the government is 100% the cause of inflation. I'm not surprised people have no idea.

  8.  @harrisjm62  in a closed loop system, perhaps. But this is a global economy. It's not just a coincidence that literally every time government creates a bunch of money they a bunch of inflation. The causation could not be more clear.

  9. can you name me some when the cost-of-living goes up for an entire society that was not proceeded by an increase in the money supply? Can you think of any examples where there’s not even a correlation, let alone causation? And if it’s greed, why does it only come about society wide at a specific given time? Were all the companies benevolent before that?

  10. I think Bernie's policies are absolutely abysmal and I desperately hope he doesn't win, but I respect him as a man because he's a sincere person.

  11.  @aolson1111  move where? It's almost impossible for most Canadians to get into America (I can give you countless stories, including myself, of Canadians that get rejected for American work, visas, despite qualifications, jobs, already lined up, no criminal record, blah blah blah), and the only other options are to go very far away to a completely different culture and language. So again, be specific. Where is it realistic to move?

  12. Ignore this video in its entirety because it doesn't mention the literal actual cause of inflation. Governments printing more money. During Covid most governments printed vast amounts of money, way way way way way more than normal so of course prices went up. You have way more money chasing the same goods. That's economics 101 end it hurts my heart that our education system and media completely glossed over it since it affects us all so severely.

  13.  @theshi3152  nailed it. Productivity is up, which means each worker is empirically worth more to the business. Then again, as I'm saying this, I realize that businesses are also hit from all sides from the government so perhaps the wages we should've got are going to things like carbon taxes, and all types of other things government hits business with. All I know is that in the end, my wages are absolutely not even coming close to keeping up with inflation.

  14. It's such a tough one, because I love the idea of capitalism and free markets, but they inevitably lead to consolidation. It's basically a law of nature at this point. How on earth do we keep the benefits of capitalism while stopping all of this consolidation?

  15.  @MrBeetsGaming  The funny part is that it's not a conspiracy theory. Prominent social media influencers have shown the emails where they'd be paid to promote Kamala.

  16. Tom Johnson: That's like saying weather doesn't exist because studying it is so hard because there are so many variables.

  17. Dallas just made the Stanley Cup Final, and there's a chance they might play the Islanders. 2 underdog teams for sure.

  18. I'm happy at the end Slick Rick's name got in there because in later albums he was an absolute lyrical genius and completely unique. Nobody sounds like him at all.

  19. I've seen maybe 2 comments by hockey fans who were triggered, and I scrolled for awhile. 1 or 2 comments out of dozens hardly equals triggered.

  20. Unfortunately Canada is getting more and more sensationalized lately and it makes me so sad (I'm Canadian). Just give me objective facts and let me sort out what side I'm on, thank you very much.

  21. Vox have you heard of Vox?

  22. Vox is the farthest left? TYT: "hold my beer"

  23.  @harrisjm62  are you on glue? There is an extremely direct correlation between governments, going nuts with the printing press, and rising prices. Every single time everywhere in the world. That's literally economics 101.

  24. Luck can't be considered? I guess the entire analytical community is a bunch of charlatans then, eh?

  26.  @sweetpotatobestpotato9893  I can't think of a bigger "think differently" idea for most people than to convince them to switch their diet in a major way.

  27.  @IgnatRemizov  To be pedantic, shifting of layers is different from chromatic aberration. CA is the fault of imperfect lenses and is not uniform.

  29. I just wish they'd allow a digital copy. I'm far from home and don't have my bluray player, and plus at home I sometimes don't want to remove my mid season tv disc that's paused on an episode in order to put Planet Earth in. I'd rather use a digital copy but they don't allow it.

  30. Did you move to Canada? I bet not, just like all the other virtue signalling phonies. Trump will win again. Not saying I like Trump, but I can't see him losing this next one.

  31. We get drunk up in Canada, but not THAT drunk. We're strictly platonic.

  32. What's funny is zero political videos have comments like "Stop making science and information videos. Make more political ones about progressive agendas".

  33. Nat Geo videos are all "Americanized". All drama and overdone music etc. I watch tons on YouTube because they help me fall asleep but I try to avoid Nat Geo ones unless my other options are limited because they're cheesy and way to anthropomorphic.

  34. Site your source that it's been debunked. I have yet to see one single study, ever, that shows that it's 0%. Not saying it doesn't exist, but thus far the other side of the argument I've seen is batting 1000.

  35. Jesse uuummm....okay. That's a very strange response to...well, anything besides somebody who's actively doing a drug. At least you got "you're" right though.

  36. 4:25 The NHL doesn't require big people? Look at the circle vs the average man. It's not even close, so that's just a weird thing to say.

  37. In housing this is absolutely true beyond a shadow of a doubt, as well as automobiles. Probably not for things like major appliances, but if you're buying something that's equivalent to a year or more's worth of your wages, you absolutely will hold off if the prices are noticeably coming down.

  38.  @vipu6821  during Covid, prices went absolutely bananas, and everybody knew they would come back down to earth. if there’s a noticeable spike in prices, you are definitely more likely to shop carefully. also, cars absolutely do come down year over a year. The used market is awesome. Wait eight years and you can get the vehicle you love for half price.

  39.  @vipu6821  during the pandemic, used car prices went through the roof. New ones as well. We knew the prices would come down. Also, with cars, you might wait and buy the same vehicle used and save a boatload. Another factor is interest rates, and this one is HUGE. Most people don’t make large purchases in cash and the difference between a 3% interest rate and a 7% interest rate is massive to the overall price so if you believe interest rates will come down in the next six months, you’re way more likely to hold off that purchase because it absolutely lowers the amount of money you have to pay for it. You will hold your old vehicle together with duct tape, and string.

  44. There are too many to mention. Hubba Hideout, New Spot and CIBC rails in Vancouver, there are tons and tons and tons of spots that are ultra world famous but gone now (though CIBC just got partially uncapped). Love Park is a big one tho for sure.

  45. This was awesome. When you guys stay away from work nonsense you actually produce great content.

  46. Is it still like that? I used to read it years ago and I loved it for that exact reason.

  47. Uncanny? I disagree. I see this sort of willful blindness everywhere..

  49. Dark people want to be light, and light people want to be dark. That's just the way of things. Don't even worry about it in the least.

  50. Is the country worse off since Trump got in office? Give me something empirical that shows the country is worse off overall since he got in office.
