  1.  @dustbuster  . Insurrection is not a crime to you? I hope you're not American.

  2. And then casually massacre the indigenous population. Good ol' America.

  3. Don't forget the black communities that were wiped out in many parts of the US for development purposes including Manhattan.

  4.  @Poindexters-Obsession  . The "means" that the wealthy dictate?

  5. As a Texan I never knew about this. I've heard the arguments but was never taught how these arguments came to be. Sickening that many people don't see any harm in US slavery.

  6. I'm sure all of that is coming. The hardest part is making art from nothing.

  8. Second time watching it for me over the past year. I decided to saved it for future reference. Still trying to make sense how all the pieces connect in the middle east.

  9. The word is minimalist.

  10. Not surprising.

  11. Putin loved Trump's statements too. Hence, the invasion in Ukraine. Baltic nations are next since they are behind on their payments and the USA won't support non paying members!

  12. A clueless American who thinks the USA is the center of the universe. Nothing new.

  13. That's a great idea and a good start!

  14. In all fairness the USA invaded Iraq. Can't show up with bombs, blow up the place then expect flowers in return.

  15. You must have been poor. The video clearly stated double pane windows have been around since the 60s.

  17.  @kaitlyn__L  . Its funnier how you make up your own facts as you go along.

  18. Wow! That's an important detail to leave out.

  19. This isn't a new problem. How do you think poor countries ended up poor in the first place??

  20. Its sad that this needs to be explained to people. Its failure of parents who refuse to educate their kids on personal finance. Some people don't even know how to file their own taxes.

  21. Its always been like this.

  22. Clueless!

  23. A little late isn't it. Trump showed his hand and Putin took notice.

  24.  @indobalkanizer6557 . Trump literally questioned the membership of non paying NATO countries. Putin loved Trump's stance on NATO hence we have the invasion in Ukraine and baltic countries will follow since they can't afford to pay NATO. Trump has done more harm to NATO than any other US president.

  25.  @indobalkanizer6557  . After Europe falls. And a few other democratic nations fall. One day Americans will look around and realize they are the only ones that need saving. Careful what you wish. If you want to see fear mongering just look at Ukraine. Putin is far from done.

  26.  @indobalkanizer6557  . Its not fear mongering when there is an actual war in progress. Use your small brain for once.

  27.  @indobalkanizer6557  . Nice switch and bait. Get lost clown!

  28. Yes, you pay all the brackets for each portion of money. But the rates don't cause you to pay multiple tax rates on the same dollars. In other words, don't add all the percentages and think that's your rate. Someone in the comments said the effective tax rate in the example is something like 13%.

  29. I'm not black but its easy to see why black people are so upset and fed up with racism. Imagine you are a direct descendant of people who were directly affected by these atrocious acts of the past. I'm starting to wonder if the intensity of racism against black is more pronounced in the US as opposed to most of Europe.

  31. In both instances the wealthy got wealthier. What a surprise. I wonder who funds these wonderful industries. THINK!!

  33. Mindboggling in every regard! thanks for the video!

  34. Yemen is just collateral damage for the USA and Saudi Arabia. Despicable!

  35. Yes, its very clear that our government is taking money from the working class and putting it in the pockets of people like Elon Musk in the form of subsidies. That much is clear.

  36. Very interesting! Thanks!

  37. Good point!

  38. There is no real solution to this. That's like arguing that countries with the ability to produce excess food owe poorer countries some kind of food ration. A better solution is for poorer countries to form alliances so that they can compete with the richer countries in a more level field. That said, education and rule of law are even more important. Poor countries need to get their citizens educated so they can create your own infrastructure and industry and enforce the law so people are willing to take risk and invest in said industries.

  39. A few people extract billions of dollars from society while the general population is always left holding the scraps. Nothing has changed in millennia.

  40. Rich people were and still are getting subsidies funded by you, the tax payer, to put solar panels on their roof. You should have also taken an economic class so you better understand how people like Elon Musk gets rich beyond belief on the backs of the working class.

  41. I think teaching will be revolutionized over the next twenty years and its unlikely that we'll continue dumping so much money into a broken system. I'm willing to bet that a double digit percentage of kids will be attending online classes over the next twenty years which will reduce the need for so many teachers and for the bloated school district budgets. Let's face it. Everything anyone needs to know up to k-12 is free online. There is absolutely no reason why we should spend so much on schools when the information is free online and educational quality varies so much from teacher to teacher.

  42. Unfortunately, Ukraine will never see NATO fighter jets nor a no-fly zone. While NATO has largely supported Ukraine with weapons and other aid Ukrainians are on their own to fend off the Russia attack. I hate the thought that this will be dragged out war that will leave Ukraine in ruins.

  43. The IRS estimates your tax rate upfront so when you get paid more you get taxed more upfront. Sure, when you get your paycheck it looks like you got ripped off. However, it all gets sorted out when you file taxes and you get a bigger refund after working all the OT. Don't refuse OT over taxes.

  46. If its so cheap why is the government taxing my hard-earned money to subsidize billionaires like Elon Musk?? This is how someone like Elon Musk gets rich beyond belief on the backs of the working class. Disgraceful!

  47. Wrong! Geography hasn't changed in millions of years or more.

  48. Who cares! Only fools buy processed foods as a "healthy" choice. If you want to be healthy stop purchasing processed garbage with added sugar and other unnecessary additives.

  49. Its because the federal government estimates how much the individual should be taxed at the end of year on a paycheck by paycheck basis which means that for those who work hourly jobs they get taxed at a higher rate when they work lots of overtime. However, all this gets sorted out when the worker files taxes at the end of the year and they get a larger refund as a direct result of working overtime and being taxed at a higher rate upfront.

  50.  @Poindexters-Obsession  . Brilliant... punish the lower classes by throwing them in a 6*6 box with no windows when there is so much land available in the US and while the wealthy continue to live their best life at the expense of the lower classes. What a disgrace!

  51. Amazing! Thanks!

  53. That's terrible math because your taxing the same dollars multiple times with your example. Work out this problem on a spreadsheet and calculate the effective tax rate on your own to better understand how tax rates work. Someone in the comments said the effective tax rate in the video's example is about 13%.

  55. There is a lot of middle ground between the wealthy and the ones that rely on government assistance to survive. But keep defending wealthy people who can care less about you. If you think the lower classes are receiving too much assistance you should study some history and find out what happens when people are squeezed beyond reason. France would be a good place to start.
