Politics Yang on Rachel Maddow tonight

[crandc]

My not-so-secret crush Rachel Maddow is hosting Andrew Yang for the Interview tonight. The Interview generally runs for a big portion of the show.

I am firmly in Warren camp but some folks here might be interested and might not be regular Maddow watchers. MSNBC 6 or 9 PM PST.

[EL PRESIDENTE]

A 10% VAT tax should pay for universal healthcare, not giving every American $1,000 a month.

A 10% VAT tax should pay for universal healthcare, not giving every American $1,000 a month.

People would have a conniption fit about that. "Just another tax!"

I'd rather pay more in sales tax than I do in income tax and property tax, because at least I get to chose what it is I'm paying taxes on (i.e., I could buy less or more, etc)

I would too, because I'm cheap as fuck.

However, I think Universal Healthcare is much better goal than having an extra $1,000 per month in spending money.

It seems like a bad deal for those on public assistance as well.

Current welfare and social program beneficiaries would be given a choice between their current benefits or $1,000 cash unconditionally – most would prefer cash with no restriction.

It would take more than that to get me to watch Rachel Maddow.

How about not paying more tax in any of those areas and simply cutting the defense budget?

What’s the over and under on how many times she brings up Russia?

 

[barfo]

What’s the over and under on how many times she brings up Russia?

With Andrew Yang? I'd think zero, unless Yang has some Russian connection I'm unaware of.

Ill go with impeach..

 

[ABM]

Meanwhile, I'll be watching Yin on the fair & balanced station.

 

[crandc]

No one has to watch if they don't want to, you know.

That would NEVER fly.

It would take more than that to get me to watch Rachel Maddow.

Why?

 

[ABM]

Record it and watch it again.

barfo

That's gotta be worth food stamps, at least.

No, you lose your food stamps if you take the $1000

[ABM]

No, you lose your food stamps if you take the $1000

Personally, I'd be more into the long-term payout plan. Just like the lottery. Yeah, that's the ticket.

Rachel!
Her channel was my main watch, but she wore me down about 2008. A $1000 ain't going to get er done!

 

[jonnyboy]

Why?

I was speaking in jest. I would probably do it for $1000. I don’t watch news on any of those major networks though because it is all sensationalist garbage. Maddow has been especially bad the past couple years pushing Russia conspiracy theories to get ratings.

Its to late the robots have already won.

Since her show started in August 2008, I guess she wore you down pretty quickly. Is MarAzul made from balsa wood?
