@NorCal-Killa If you don't know Yangers put up links, too, I suggest you save it to tell them! People can choose to put up links or not and to click them or not. I have clicked a few from yangers!
Yes, there are billionaires donating to Yang, too! I don't care about endorsements! I care about a consistent record on the issues I care about. Yang does not have that and yes he lied building popularity off of making people believe he was for Medicare for all when he's not.
Medicare for all that want it is not Medicare for all unless all have it.
I'm a Independent and I will never vote for Yang and neither will other Independents I know or Republicans I know.
I am aware some will as they lick their chops for Charles Murray's UBI version to be passed and there is that risk!
I am not dumb or closed minded! I go by records, voting records, consistency and after Obama and Trump, it's a pretty smart thing for anyone to do!
It's lying because Yang didn't admit to it for months!
Does Richard Wolff think UBI is a solution?, "NO"
"...Let me explain in a couple of ways first if you're going to give income without work to a large number of people who are not structurally part of the economy you're not going to over come the split between those who do the work and those who live off the LABOR OF OTHERS and that's a very dangerous relationship which the whole history of the human race seems to me to have taught us..." End of quote
Richard Wolff even relates Yang as in trying to buy votes!
"For me it panders to the lowest conceivable denominator it's another candidate saying here I'm going to hand you some money it's buying votes it's look I'm going to give you some money and now you're going to be able to solve this problem..." "...we're gonna solve this by throwing money at individuals who will then hopefully spend it in such a way that magically all of the social problems are overcome..."
Talking about Bernie's solutions....
"You can go even further those kinds of structural changes even one of them would be worth a hell of a lot more than a thousand bucks so that you know you can get the idea across you are going for a much bigger prize when you go after these other issues..." End of Wolff's quotes
Benamin Franklin quote below....
“When the people find that they can vote themselves money that will herald the end of the republic.” end of quote.
What do you think Universal means (UBI) according to Jared Bernstein; "Take resources from people that need it and give it to people that don't need it." "The idea that automation has been killing jobs has been around forever." "Is likely to hurt more than it helps" "UBI squanders resources on people that don't need it...a dollar you give to people that don't need it is a dollar that people that need it don't get.""I don't see writing checks for everybody as a part of the American tradition. The American tradition is if you are able bodied you should work..."
"The idea that automation is killing jobs has been around forever and the debate is the same.""Automation can be complimented with humans not replace humans."If in fact machines robots AI automation were replacing workers the rate of output per hour or productivity would be accelerating it would and would be accelerating quickly. It's the OPPOSITE it's decelerate it's growing more slowly so clearly technology has not found its way into the workforce in reality such that it's replacing workers at any sort of an accelerated rate."
Mr. Bernstein regarding passing UBI while keeping existing social programs, "...and that is a very expensive endeavor involving the RAISING OF MUCH MORE TAX REVENUE and thus NOT something I suspect many people in this room would readily support." And Mr. Bernstein was talking about just UBI not passing with existing programs so that's not even counting getting Medicare passed, too!
Mike Gravel asked about Yang "Well, I think it sounds good but it's totally flawed because you can't turn around and tax people then turn around and give them the tax monies it just doesn't make any sense. What we have to do is change the nature of capitalism..."

@NorCal-Killa While some people like and can afford their insurance people are dying because they can't afford it. Denied procedures their insurance won't cover, can't choose their doctors. I don't defend that and the billions they make off of sick and dying people.
Yang's ads, his website was not clear from the beginning on Medicare for all that want it. Medicare for all is not Medicare for all unless ALL have it. It's false to frame it the way Yang and other candidates do.
If you think it's best to get everyone off of Social Security, Medicare, other welfare assistance, Medicaid for a thousand bucks a month then I can see what people would vote for Yang and that is exactly what Republicans want.
No, Yang doesn't SAY that is what he is for but there is that risk that version, Charles Murray's version would end up being the one passed just like Obamacare is a taken off of a Republican bill. You are less than honest if you don't admit there is that risk that version would end up being passed but you don't believe it would? Why? Because Yang said so LOL
He was no where on the issues before running for president. Just like people are calling Trump on being a con since he went back on some of what he campaigned on you have no proof of anything Yang is saying, no proof he won't go back to his original positions he started his campaign with, no proof he won't have new ones that a political record does give for people that want a candidate that has walked the walk instead of a bunch of talk!
You are the dumb one for blindly trusting someone that comes out of nowhere that never has stood with workers on picket lines, never spoke out against Social Security cuts, never speaking out against many issues BEFORE running for president and with no voting record to show EXACTLY what he would had voted for/against on all of the bills that have been voted on. Blind trust is as dumb as it gets if you want to go the name calling route.

Yes, there are differences in Warren and Bernie and when I tell them I am not trying to get donations or clicks!
Elizabeth Warren Not Great On Israel / Palestine
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=am7B7ddNNrs
Mike Gravel: Why I support Bernie over Warren on the Hill.
Talks about why he thinks Warren is more interested in "power" than the issues she was advancing! And talks about how "awesome" it is what Bernie is trying to do!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efb9vi9ukok
What Elizabeth Warren is QUIETLY telling Democratic Insiders...
With phone calls, texts, and handwritten notes, the Mass Senator is continuing an unusually determined outreach effort to show party officials she is aligned with them....
(And some people really think that is someone that is progressive?)

If you are 100 percent for Bernie then you need to share these videos and let everyone in your area know the differences between Bernie and the other candidates.
Very Clear & Simple Reasons To Vote Bernie Over Warren
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZbJQx5fpcw
To add to what Kyle said in reasons I won't vote for Warren....
Warren was totally silent AT THE TIME peaceful Natives were being brutalized at Standing Rock! And that was when Warren still thought she was Native American but she didn't even speak out against the horrific brutalization of what she thought was her own people! Bernie spoke out against it, visited their communities and reservations as well as participated in protests in their behalf. If Warren gets president and more pipelines are allowed to go through their lands or anyone else's lands don't act surprised.
Elizabeth Warren Gets Endorsement From Wall Street — The Political Vigilante

Ms. Warren left Dow Chemical off her 2012 list of clients. After Mr. Jacobson’s blog revealed her representation, she spun her work for the industrial giant as instrumental in setting up a $2.3 billion trust to pay women who said they were injured by the implants.
That explanation, though, doesn’t jibe with her duty as an attorney for Dow, where she was bound to represent the company’s interests.
“The notion that Warren was representing anyone other than her client is preposterous,” Mr. Jacobson said. “As an attorney, she had a duty of loyalty to Dow Chemical. If she explored possible ways in which Dow Chemical could extricate itself through settlement, her services were on behalf of and for the benefit of Dow Chemical, not the women.”

Elizabeth Warren's $675-an-hour corporate lawyer past looms over progressive 2020 bid
Her statement on Assange:
"Warren distanced herself from Assange but condemned the Justice Department’s move to curtail press freedom. “Assange is a bad actor who has harmed U.S. national security — and he should be held accountable,” Warren said in a statement." End of quote. Assange didn't harm national security. She can't condemn the Justice dept in one sentence for curtailing freedom and in the next condemn someone that was exercising their press freedom.

“I support Medicare for All. I think it’s a good plan,” she said, before quickly adding, “I support a lot of plans. Other things that people have come up with, when they’re good plans, let’s do it. This isn’t some sort of contest.”

Senator Sanders has the best voting record of any candidate on war and peace issues, especially on military spending. Opposing the oversized Pentagon budget, he has only voted for 3 out of 19 military spending bills since 2013. By this measure, no other candidate comes close, including Tulsi Gabbard. In other votes on war and peace, Sanders voted as requested by Peace Action 84% of the time from 2011 to 2016, despite some hawkish votes on Iran from 2011-2013.
In terms of stopping the war in Yemen, Sanders has been a hero. Over the past year, he and Senators Murphy and Lee have led a sustained effort to shepherd his historic War Powers bill on Yemen through the Senate. Congressman Ro Khanna, whom Sanders has chosen as one of his 4 campaign co-chairs, has led the parallel effort in the House.
https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Bernie_Sanders
"There will be no unconstitutional wars under his (Bernie's) administration that he's going to have far greater respect and respect for human rights and he will be transformational on economical policy..." Ro Khanna quote
Bernie has voted with Trump 13.8% of the time. Tulsi has with a Trump 20.7%. Bernie is better when it comes to voting. Good intentions matter. Voting matters more!

@yance0024 First, when talking about Social Security to say it stacks on top without ALSO saying it only stacks on top of SSA, the one you are referring to we all paid into, still because there is also Social Security supplemental income that can not be stacked on top of UBI yang supporters need to make sure they say it correctly since UBI does not stack on top of both!
Oh, it most definitely was a flip on SSA because Yang saw he was losing votes by not stacking it on top of UBI but point is that is still a flip AND Yang could very well if elected go back to his original position.
As for your min wage comments....
Seattle, one of the cities to more recently raise the minimum wage to $15, has seen large increases in employment and income. According to MyNorthwest.com, not only have many of the businesses who opposed the increase seen higher employment numbers, some are even opening additional locations. In 2014, a study by the Center for Economic and Policy Research found that the 13 states that increased the minimum wage saw employment numbers increase faster than states that did not, an average of 0.85 percent compared to 0.61 percent in the other 37 states.
OVER 200 ECONOMISTS SIGNED A PETITION IN SUPPORT OF A $15 U.S. MINIMUM WAGE AS OF 2020
Don't think that many economists would sign onto it if it was as bad as you and others make it out to be. Please don't make excuses why Millionaires and Billionaires shouldn't pay their workers a living wage and it doesn't hurt small businesses the way it's alleged either!
As far as Bernie's record. It is that record regardless if someone agrees with a candidate's record that lets people know whether or not a candidate is likely to go back on their campaign promises. Yang does not have that record so anyway you look at it it's blind trust to trust him!
Tell me where was Yang when jobs were being out sourced? Before running for president did he ever say anything at all about any of the bad trade deals? NAFTA? TPP?
What protests has he been in for gay rights? For civil rights? For anyone's rights?
Any picket lines he has stood with workers on?
When Obama and Biden proposed Social Security and Medicare cuts did Yang speak out against that?
Where was Yang when Trump did cut Social Security and Medicare?
I like to know if Yang has protested against any of the wars?
Other than giving people jobs which is hardly a good enough resume to be President of the United States what has he done?
There are many important policies that are voted on and how a politician votes on them tells me if I want to vote for them or not. So tell me what policies has Yang voted on to show exactly where he stands on the issues? Oh, that's right he doesn't have a voting record.
He should had ran for local office first so we could know for sure what that man is all about other than coming out of nowhere wanting to be president.
I have read some comments from some conservatives that support Yang because of Yang's goal to eliminate social and welfare programs. Without that Yang wouldn't have near the support he does from them.
