  1. @paullegend6798  this channel has explained why you've got it backwards and why we need to tax assets, not income. We can't address wealth inequality through income tax, Gary has made half a dozen videos on why. You've got a lot wrong here.

  2. ​ @AndrewM-w8c That's an incredibly short sighted and petty opinion mate. Maybe you should put personal grievances aside and focus on the bigger picture and not make sweeping generalizations based on how you feel.

  3. @hyperspace32  you don't watch this channel much do you?

  4. The people can collectively organize and demand change. That's the only way to make them change the system. It doesn't work without us, we have power that we aren't using.

  6. Did you stop watching the video or something?? He clearly explained that the money goes to the channel, not to him. And the way of fighting inequality growing the channel and hiring staff, the funding is for the channel and the staff.

  7.  @donrayjay  paying people to work on and help make the videos better. You know, staff? You understand the concept of paying staff to do a job right?

  8. Are you joking?

  9. Seems like everyone else understood his point bro, he didn't stretch anything. No offense, but this is user error.

  10. I bet everything he said about right wingers is true. You need to leave the right wing behind, it's the ideology of the rich, it's inherently anti working class. There's a place for you on the left that actually offers a coherent path forward, not just a break future of loneliness and propaganda.

  11. Do you want to tax the rich?

  12. No it isn't, that's just a racist right wing narrator they have invented to scare people. It's a scapegoat and a distraction from the wealthy. And you've fallen for it completely.

  13. Glad you're back mate

  14. Labour hasn't represented the working class since the 80s. We need to be voting Left, these center left parties are economically right wing with slightly more progressive social policies, both labour and the Tories represent corporate interests.

  15. I think reform is inevitable, English men are determined to make things worse on purpose, basically out of spite at this point

  16. Reducing wealth inequality is the only solution tho, so his message is sound.

  17.  @matt200matt  taxing wealth and assets is how.

  18. Hey man, you have a good point, but don't unsub. Yeah they said something reductive that doesn't apply to everyone, but that's not a good reason to turn your back on the movement. Fine back mate, we'll smoke together and defeat the ruling class

  19. Pretty low percentage, couple of hundred families.

  20. Because immigration is a distraction and if people get riled up focusing on immigrants then they just go alt right, they have the simplest solutions that pander to and validate racism and say it's not bad, it's good actually. Being anti immigrant is just a way to distract you from being anti rich. Immigrants are working class as well, they are on our side

  21. 😂 Free market capitalist shills always overestimate their ability to analyze the economy and have the worst ideas. This guy knows what he is talking about, he became a millionaire by understanding the economy. You don't know what you are talking about and your ideas would do nothing to solve inequality, it would just make it worse.

  22. Sounds like you are saying that corporations are untouchable and they will make us pay no matter what we do.

  23. The right wing are on the side of the rich and are the enemy of the working class.

  24. People, especially right wing people, would rather be confidently wrong than admit they don't know or understand the problems or know how to fix it. Blaming immigrants is comforting to them.

  25. Cuba and Vietnam are doing well. Better than the UK and America in many ways.

  26. I think he's right and knows what he is talking about.

  27. ​ @ShotsMerkzAll immigration is not a problem, it's a smokescreen. It's just a racist distraction.

  28. You don't know that he's the one deleting comments, YouTube does it all the time. Pretty ridiculous to unsubscribe because of a bad guess about a comment. Think this through man, get some perspective

  29. Socialists all sit in the. Middle class together, not poverty. It's not the 20th century

  30. He offers plenty of solutions on his channel. He doesn't just want attention, he wants privileged economics students to empathize with and understand someone living in poverty. Do you not get the point of the exercise? Can you answer the question, what WOULD you do in his position?
    1
  31.  @BenRJersey  bro, you are confused. He's asking what you would do if you were him, if you were the boy in the story growing up in poverty. What would you have done in that situation to get out of it?

  32.  @aehii  did you watch the video? He explained the reasons and goals pretty clearly

  33. Yeah, it's almost like the left have been aware and trying to fix this stuff for over a century but no one will listen and those in power fund anti left propaganda.

  34. oof

  35. You're still falling for the capitalist myth of meritocracy, making ludicrous claims. Still a long way to go mate.

  36. There are ways to control prices

  37. Doesn't matter if their assets are.

  38. do you disagree with him?

  39. Right vs left literally is incorrect vs correct though. The labels are just for the people who want to make things worse and the people who want to make things better. It's pretty simple, you can easily guess which side is which.

  40. What do you mean?

  41. You think he needs to listen to some dumb ideas to make sure he isn't only listening to smart ideas?

  42. And it's worked incredible well half of Britain is convinced immigrants are to blame for all their problems and fears.

  43. Exactly, because it doesn't matter who owns the assets, they can't go anywhere and they can be taxed whoever owns them. If the rich leave and sell their assets, good for them, the assets continue to be taxed regardless of who owns them.

  44. Civil war between who?
    1
  45.  @alanyeequanchua6630  well the numbers are certainly in favour of one side who will have nothing to lose. I think it's only a civil war if the rich win, if the poor commons win then it's a revolution.

  46. It doesn't matter if they sell the assets, the assets stay and are being taxed, it doesn't matter who owns them, as long as someone does they should be taxed. A global tax standard sounds great but would probably take many years to set up.

  47. IQ literally isn't real tho. Success has almost everything to do with your class. Class is the number one factor determining how people do on IQ tests, which aren't even a measure of intelligence, more just a measure of how stressed a person is.

  48. I think he knows what he is talking about better than you do, and no, he doesn't think anyone who owns assets is a billionaire, and they don't need to be. He isn't wrong.

  49. It is a weapon of the rich, but you've misunderstood how they are using it.

  50. The people in power use fear if immigration as a smokescreen and it works. It's worked on you.
