  1. "They did win it though they killed Frieza. " little did they know how correct this off-screen guy was

  2. You joke, but I literally had this conversation with my sister regarding inflation in grocery stores. She wanted to do a video saying that people were over exaggerating inflation and that the government data showed that inflation wasn't that high. Problem was, is that there were way too many viral tiktoks of people showing their grocery bills of before and after. They will go with the expert data rather than actually believe their eyes.

  3. California still shifted very red, and I would argue that it would even have shifted even more red if people weren't discouraged to vote because California is going to go Blue anyway so they don't vote.

  4. Also, let those places practice open borders for a while and see how well their social welfare holds up

  5. ​ @The13thRonin no he actually really did completely explain the issue. I live in one of these left-wing Bubbles as well, and for you to get any correct information is very hard because anytime you try everyone around you is in a woke mind virus. I didn't realize how radicalized I was until I moved to Austin Texas, and dated women outside of Austin. Once I met women in "trailer parks" areas where I'd think I'd get lynched, only for their parents and grand parents to love me, I realized I was lied to about the rural south.

  6. 7:20 it's funny how you can make up the most insane conspiracy theories, and it's acceptable, as long as it's anti Trump.

  7. ​ @HarenunHoppus I actually had this thought, and it was my waking up moment. I was watching John Oliver, and railing against the rich, then I just had a random epiphany that every single person on the TV tube agreed with me. And each other. Other than one network. How is that possible? And I work in finance for the ultra rich and allmy view points align with them? Lol.... Oops.

  8. I think he's right. Businesses never knew they could raise prices until now. Now they know and they'll never stop. /s

  9. Potato potato( this sounded better), either way, I pick the stock they pick, we both win. Not sure why you're mad. This is like the teacher accidentally publishing the exam Solutions, and then rather than utilizing that information, complaining when it's not illegal.... Bruh.... You were literally given a cheat sheet to play stocks... Wtf are you doing....

  10. 13:40 ok, Israel isn't doing genocide, because they are targeting hamas. Palestinian deaths are not the intent of the action. See how dumb this is?

  11. ​ @deepergodeeper7618 it's because most of these people have never traveled the world so they assume that everyone wants to come to America. America is only good to come to if you need to work here. She doesn't need to work here cuz she already has a good job. I have a lot of family that doesn't want to come here. They're happy and their multi-million-dollar Mansions overseas and they don't want to come to America to downgrade their lifestyle. Americans just assume they have the best lifestyle because they have never experienced anything else. I have family that will come here buy stuff and then go back home. The crime alone in a lot of spots in america, makes no sense compared to a lot of places overseas. And even if the area is poorer, you just have armed guards and security that takes you everywhere so you never really interact with the poor you just interact with yourself and all of your wealthy friends and family. Americans will just never get it because they've just will never understand anything other than their lives. Which, once you've been around the world America is not that amazing. People normally come here to send money home to family

  13. It's greed, they all believe that they're going to get the better end of the stick.

  14. ​ @MentisWave they're speaking a different language. You take words literally. They take words emotionally.

  15. 10.6B profit. Split between millions of shareholders... So ya... It's a lot for Pepsi. But, each individual beneficiary, they enjoy having their dividends go from 1000 a year, to 1100 a year which helps them keep up with inflation.

  16. ​ @AiluridaeAureus because a large amount of people now believe that stuff, my neighbors just took their daughter to a midnight drag show were they then told me that their daughter gave the drag performers money and danced like them. 😢

  17. Pepsi and coke aren't comparable companies. Pepsi is a snacks company. Coke is just a drink company.

  18. Second thought, a multi millionaire, larping as a socialist. Lol. You got to hand it to the people that grift on that side, they really do it

  19. ​ @ZontarDow for people that work normal jobs may be, but that doesn't apply to Melina. If she wants to live in Sweden, and she makes good money then she'd be getting taxed twice because America is the only country in the world that taxes you no matter where you live. American citizen doesn't make sense for everyone. This makes sense to people like you may be, because you're from America and you don't travel the whole world and you don't own property across the world, but for those of us that have property in multiple countries, it's not like American citizenship is the end all be all. I can easily replicate the same thing, just by buying houses or citizenship in other countries. Unless you work with a good tax accountant and structured your Investment Portfolio correctly, having American citizenship but then living in the EU is insanity because you wouldn't get to keep any of your money. You would be better off just revoking your American citizenship in living in the EU. For a lot of people to tax shield applies, but for Molina with her income she's going to get a hit with a lot of her income so no it's not worth it

  20. ​ @pepperonipizza8200 you'd think. My bro moved to Cali, and fell into this idiocy. Tried to tell me companies aren't fair and should be a democracy. So I asked him, since he wants to do YouTube, if he hired an editor, and manager, after saving for a studio, if the editor and the manager then voted to give all the money to themselves. These people never think this stuff through, they just hear something and think it sounds nice
    2
  21. ​ @pepperonipizza8200 they also get to people before they actually start to working, so they completely demotivated them. I think this is why we have such a large group of people that feel like they can't make it anymore

  22. ​ @Amin-al-Husseini_1941picture people say that capitalism isn't fair, yet if you honestly dig into it, how much time does the average person spend learning how money works, have a stock market works, how taxes work, Etc. Now, how much time do they spend Keeping Up with the Kardashians or playing video games? I thought it wasn't fair too, until I actually just spent my time learning the game. Capitalism is just a game, in second do treated like that and you actually try to play it you can win at it too, it's not a hard game. I'm sure that it will be broken at some point but it's nowhere close to that point

  23. 12:00 this is partially true, the real thing is that companies are pricing their products based on how much consumers actually want them

  24. 8:07 keep in mind, this is from the trust the science crowd

  25. 7:58 which is why the stock market isn't as risky as people think it is, not Financial advice

  26. 16:00 yes, sometimes people make something to critique something and screw up and they actually do the exact opposites. Same thing with the Barbie movie, it was supposed to be a feminist movie and it really just shows how silly it all is

  27. He says 10.6B which is a lot of money, but there are a lot of shareholders.... So if Pepsi doesn't increase their profit, the shareholders who depend on those dividends, and dividend increases, get f'd..... And there are a lot of dividend investors.

  28. 20:20 all of my most profitable Investments that I'm terrified to talk about and have other people find out about are deals with the government. You can make 20% annualized returns if you deal with the government, you can't make those returns anywhere else.

  29. 1:30 please, don't upend my investments... My favorite thing is riding the coat tails of socialist reform. Obama care, green revolution. Lol. You murder the market, just investing in whatever they want it's a free money glitch.

  30. 3:15 that's the fun of economics, it's just bullshiting

  31. 36:40 humans are designed to take things they hear as true. For me, this stuff stopped making sense, when every single journalist and mainstream outlet other than fox echoed the same points. I mean, is john Oliver really "based" against his corporate overlords? Or does he just keep our eyes on exactly what they want. But also, their propaganda got worse.

  32. Reducing prices will also reduce supply.... So ya.. Enjoy shortages.

  33. 25:40 what's to stop the workers, from joining a new company, voting for the company to be liquidated and sold off to them, and repeat? The workers put nothing into the company but they would be able to take as much as they want out of the company.... it is not remotely thought out. And none of these people who advocate for this would want to run their own company this way.

  34. 22:45 you are about to take too long, if the companies are monopolies that control everything then why do they die....

  35. 3:45 yeah, beforehand I would have never believed that the media was one entity, now though they obviously are government propaganda

  36. 4:19 girls that "culturally appropriate" are my weakness. Please don't wear dreads and Jordans

  37. 2:50 what I've learned about this from living in California is that the class becomes part of the identity and therefore they can't start a business because that would be going against their identity

  38. I mean, these are the same people that want to fix racism with Reverse Racism....

  39. 12:53 which is funny, because if the only things that rise to the surface are things that the big Corporation wants then by that same logic, the only reason his videos are so popular on YouTube is because that's what the corporations want...

  40. 31:13 he does realize the rich want to give the poor money right? If we print more money, and cause inflation, that money just eventually goes to me. And I'll spend that money right away on assets. Since we know we are printing money. When America inevitably collapses, the poor you advocate for are STUCK in America.... I'm not.... I have multiple citizenship.... I'll just leave.... America isn't my home, it's just a random server I'm playing in, and if it sucks, I'll take my stuff and leave...

  41. They're not going to stop injecting money into the economy. And us finance people figured it out. At least, I think I see a lot of people running the same ideas I have. All the economy is is a game. Look at any current game. They all have multiple currencies, and optimal things to farm. Same as real life. Most people are just focused on farming the worst thing. Us dollars. I've never played an mmorpg where keeping your wealth in the farmable currency is smart. That currency always has inflation. People keep crying about inflation, but you know what to do if you're playing an mmorpg, but it's real life and you get confused, and keep farming the base currency like an idiot.

  43. 6:34 if inflation is stealing your money, you can't do math or critical thinking. No, I can't tell you the solution, this is a game, and you're not on my team.

  44. ​ @MentisWave wow... So I wouldn't have believed it until I saw the comments. They say it's not an ethnic genocide because other people died... But yet.. The cops are racist, even though they also target their own race... It's just wild how they can nuance disproportionate treatment with cops, but disproportionate deaths? Nah fam.... Just everyone dying. Lol... Wow.... Just numbers...

  45. 19:15 this was the most recently proven with high oil prices where everyone said that the oil companies would just keep oil prices high, but what actually happened was that every Oil Company saw that the oil prices were high and pumped more oil to take advantage of those high prices until they flooded the market with oil and they brought the prices back down.

  46. ​ @romanivantsyk2785 okay, well it's kind of free for you too cuz you can literally just mirror her Investments if you want. I mean yes the game is broken but it's not so broken that anyone can play. The main problem isn't that the game is broken, it's that the majority of people can identify the game is broken but then refused to play the broken game. Maybe because I'm Nigerian, so Im used to things being broken, but we don't just stop at identifying something being broken we then will utilize the broken thing....
    1
  47. ​ @romanivantsyk2785 this is similar to how people cry about jpmorgan, but JP Morgan is a publicly investable company, so if you think that they're broken and you can invest in them then... 1+1=2.... usually the what people will do they just cry about a broken company and then they stop. But, if you identify a company that's broken, that's a free money glitch.... Why wouldn't you use it?
