At the same time, WE THE BANKERS, have off-shore Swiss bank accounts so you the Federal government can't tax us. So whether or not you the Federal Government raises taxes, we the bankers don't really care...
Mr. Uygur, you do realize that most bankers are Democrats. I work for Goldman Sachs as an investment banker and here's my experience. The Democrats make erroneous promises through parks, welfare, housing, and so on to the American people during general elections. They fulfill their promises by issuing 30-year general obligation bonds to finance their legislation to score political points WHILE WE, THE BANKERS, COLLECT FEES TO UNDERWRITE THESE BONDS.
What's crazy is it goes much deeper and gets much, much sketchier the more you understand. Dylan needs to run for office and move his way up. I'd vote for him for president in a second.
I don't even watch TV anymore, and the corporatized propaganda media networks. You GOTTA be more open and find new/alternative media to better piece together what's happening in the world. If you let MSNBC or FOX or CNN tell you the news, you'll be misinformed as shit. I'm tired of being misinformed.
theres such theft over the last 40 years, that only confiscation of wealth, auditing of the money supply, who owns it, how did they obtain those billions/trillions etc., will calm the public at this point.
I will work tirelessly until 100% of all funds collected by the IRS are transferred over to Goldman Sachs. We have jobs, nay - we exist, at the good graces of Goldman Sachs. They deserve all we can give.
Is it just me or does Dylan Ratigan sound like a male version of Sarah Palin? All those run on sentences. The obvious difference is Dylan is smart. Its still annoying though.

I agree with Ben... Sometimes listening to this stuff explained makes it sound even more difficult to understand. I know it's important, and damned if I don't try, and I think I kiiiiinda get some of it, but yea... This is rough.

I am incredibly financially illiterate. This video was slightly helpful but I need to start somewhere more simple in order to comprehend everything. Any suggestions?
Dylan knows too much stuff man. I consider myself fairly intelligent and fairly open minded, but it's hard to follow this information-storm sometimes :)
On the other hand, at least it forces me to focus a bit, which doesn't happen a lot!
I love Dylan. I ALMOST understand all of that complex financial crap when he and Cenk explain it. Unlike when others just kinda say oh it's good or bad and don't really try to make us understand it at all / don't explain WHY they thin it's good or bad.
@upplsuckimcool160-you don't have a clue,if he is, as you say,"fuckin jammed" he's been doing blow since the "fast money"(cnbc) days.i know a doper when i see one...Dylan Ratigan is no doper...he could not lay out the facts in such a coherent style if he was a long time user...a coke or speed freak are all over the "map" when they try to project their thoughts and ideas.."coke-speed or some kind of upper"...don't go making shit up when you have no idea what your talking about.
I think you've forgotten to read the last sentence if his post "Funny thing is, everthying he said was true", so obviously the first part was not 100% serious :)
I'm really bad at economics, but too me it sounds like the largest part of the system is based on trust that some debt (house, tuition etc.) is payed back. And then usually at some point the trust bubble bursts and there is a crash because people no longer trust each other. Doesn't that mean that most economists are just short-sighted, naive idiots?
@P1ranh4 Once robots start doing literally everything humans currently do, including building houses, picking crops, making food etc... life will be much different.
@moulingalette Ohhh, that's what he refers to. Robot era is the era where people just hang and get fat while robots do everything. Thanks for explaining.
I love Ratigan, he's the only one on MSM that is breaking down the financial mess we are in clearly and truthfully. The question is, why are they letting him actually tell the truth?
@GPunktmod we are evil because we support everyone? we are evil because we are progressive? you are good because you support the businesses trying to screw you? you are good because you support politicians that pass bills that oppress Homosexuals, Blacks and Latinos? you are good because you are Pro war no matter who it is with? we are the evil ones? Fuck you.
@GPunktmod nazis werent progressive they were elitietist, killing, oppresing people for who they are isnt progressive, that is elitist, not all republicans are elitist, but all elitists are republican.
@GPunktmod Nobody is advocating socialism. There are some socialist policies that work well within a capitalist society. You need to stop listening to the fear mongerers out there.
1 - The price of property is being artificially inflated to the point that you can't buy it without a bank loan. That means the banks own everything until you pay for it - it is essentially a lease to own deal where you pay around 200% of what the already inflated price is.
2 - The banks are also being allowed to loan (which means buy) more than they have. The are essentially loaning not just to us, but to themselves as well. This creates a system where you have more money to buy with than exists, which drives up the prices even more.
3- If we stopped the banks from lending more than they have, prices would drop closer to their real value, banks would collapse, and control over real estate and corporations would return more to ordinary people.
The video goes on 5 minutes straight barely hearing a word from Cenk. This 20 minute video probably consists of at most 3 questions, LOL. That is, if I bothered to watch the whole thing! Ciao!
But this guy is an arrogant blob who likes the sound of his own voice! Run on sentence after run on sentence, the audience is waiting to hear the point.
"Can you believe this mess?" What mess? What's he talking about? Are Obama and the Dem's doing something wrong? Are the corporate bosses somehow playing with a stacked deck?
.
And how is Dylan going to hold onto his job spouting stuff like this? Didn't David Weigel just get fired for speaking the Truth about the teabaggers - offline, not even in public?
LOL I saw Ratigan on Morning Joe this morning. As usual in the morning news shows, they were making ridiculously cheesy jokes and somehow then laughing at them, yet.... Dylan my man refused to laugh and instead made this face like "WTF is that supposed to be funny? Gotta love the guy.
It is inconceivable that this guy isn't incredibly blitzed on cocaine. Just listening to him trying to catch his breathe makes me feel like I'm doing coc with him.... Shit my heart is beating like crazy just listening to him.
Anyone who has been high out of their minds on blow knows that this guy is fuckin Jammed. LMFAO I don't know whether he is taking speed or what but he is taking some sort of upper, probably to keep up with all the work he has...
Yeah, at first I thought he might be on a treadmill or walking around, but at 11:54, his stuttering doesn't sound normal, more like when you're struggling to get out a word when you're on a comedown. Like after E. Getting tongue tied for a couple of days. heh.
@TankSwift Yea i watch news on TV and they only talk about distractions like Obama's pants or him not being angry enough. There are only a few shows that actually talk about real news and TYT is one of them.
In the past several days Arizona made a distress call for federal help because Mexican Cartels have literally TAKEN OVER parts of Mexico, several people have including police officers.
Sen Jon Kyl met with Obama and stated that Obama told him that he isn't going to send troops and secure the border until it is compatible with Immigration reform.
Basically cops and civilians are getting killed and Obama Admin is going to hold Arizona hostage until it is convenient for him.
I like Cenk, but I wouldn't start calling him a "reporter" of the news. He comments. And it's wise to keep that distinction, because Cenk has a very, very clear political bias. And reporters, journalists, and anchors MUST avoid having a bias. I know everyone's gonna say "blahblahblah Fox blahblah MSNBC..." all that, but we need to get back to a state in which the news is honest and unbiased, and to say that Cenk or Dylan "REPORTS" is going to get us into trouble. They're just honest
@dEdGrimley Lol reporting is supposed to be honest, dishonest reporting is called propaganda. Cenk and Ratigan are way more like reporters than any of those other hacks on mainstream news.
Well, again, they fall into the other trap of open bias. I'm not saying that they aren't more honest, but when you have a bias, you lose credibility and gravitas amongst those who would disagree with you.
I'm definitely not saying you shouldn't want to hear Cenk and Dylan's OPINIONS, because they help give a context to a news story. But they shouldn't be a primary source. If the MSM is so bad, you should consider as many non-biased sources as you can FIRST, THEN get Cenk's 2 cents.
@dEdGrimley No, they present the news first, and then give opinions on it. There is nothing wrong with that at all. This is entirely different from presenting opinions as facts right from the beginning, or failing to report facts at all, which is what the mainstream media does pretty much all the time.
Lol look, dude, I work with journalists. I know what they're SUPPOSED to be doing. I've got nothing to gain from saying that Cenk isn't a reporter. Why don't you ask him whether or not he's a reporter? I have a funny feeling that he'll call himself a commentator. If you don't understand the problems that obvious bias create in news, then I suggest you read up on it. If you were to ask a conservative whether or not they thought Cenk was honest, they'd say no. And that IS a problem.
@dEdGrimley For someone who supposedly works with journalists, you don't have a very good grasp on the current political landscape in this country. And your "educated opinion" here is that if one far right wing repub doesn't think Cenk is honest, then we should treat that as a "problem"? Since when does any single member of the party of "no" whom constantly ignore the facts to protect their political careers, have any credibility whatsoever such that an unbiased person should listen to them?
Over your head, I guess. Reporters investigate and report news. No bias, just the facts. That's what they're supposed to do. That's why we're supposed to trust them. Cenk takes news that he reads about, and gives his spin and opinion. That's what a commentator does. Comments.
I'm going to go beyond and say it's not an opinion, it's fact - a journalist shouldn't appeal to anyone's political ideals. We shouldn't know their opinions. It's not important.
@dEdGrimley Nope, it apparently over your head buddy. You seem to be unable to understand the point that I am making. You can't trust the opinions of someone who is already biased against the truth (a republican), in order to make a judgment against someone is reporting the facts (Cenk). It's like having a U.S. player referee the U.S. world cup games. Comprende?
Oh for Christ's fucking sake... Let me get this straight for a second... Is this the first TYT video you've ever seen? You haven't heard Cenk EVER talk about Progressivism, Liberalism, how silly he thinks Conservatives are, etc.? If the answer to that question is "Yes, this is my first video", I'll excuse you and suggest that you watch others. If it's a "No", then I've got news for you: TYT is a show meant to cater to Liberals. I'm a Liberal, I like it. If I wasn't, I wouldn't.
@dEdGrimley Yeah, it caters to what we call "liberal" here in America. Which is still pretty much conservative to anyone who actually understands politics outside of the fucked up American bubble. So to say that Cenk needs to be "vetted" by what amounts to a right wing wacko (an American republican) shows that your perception of the political landscape is very skewed. So get off of your high horse because you obviously don't understand what the fuck I'm talking about.
But there's no point in arguing this... Seriously, ask Cenk whether he considers himself a Reporter, or a Commentator. End of discussion.
But I'll just chime in one last time that you REALLY don't want your journalists to have clear and open biases. If you do... Imaginary God have mercy on us all.
@dEdGrimley I don't know that I'd say open bias is a trap. On the contrary, I think dropping the pretense of non-opinion is the only reason TYT is popular. With the amount of information that's immediately at anyone's disposal people would rather watch news that has their own perspective. If there is an audience with that perspective they will be drawn to it. It's only a problem when misinformation is spread which TYT is pretty good on. People will trust who they want to, not who is trustworthy
@Hobbsdude Check "RussiaToday", "RTAmerica", "TheAlyonaShow" , "Aljazeera", "pulsescan72", "crabbydogtrix" and "DEMCAD" on Youtube. There are many more great journalists out there. Cenk and Ratigan are not the only ones doing a good job.

Well, again, they fall into the other trap of open bias. I'm not saying that they aren't more honest, but when you have a bias, you lose credibility and gravitas amongst those who would disagree with you.
I'm definitely not saying you shouldn't want to hear Cenk and Dylan's OPINIONS, because they help give a context to a news story. But they shouldn't be a primary source. If the MSM is so bad, you should consider as many non-biased sources as you can FIRST, THEN get Cenk's 2 cents.

@dEdGrimley No, they present the news first, and then give opinions on it. There is nothing wrong with that at all. This is entirely different from presenting opinions as facts right from the beginning, or failing to report facts at all, which is what the mainstream media does pretty much all the time.

Lol look, dude, I work with journalists. I know what they're SUPPOSED to be doing. I've got nothing to gain from saying that Cenk isn't a reporter. Why don't you ask him whether or not he's a reporter? I have a funny feeling that he'll call himself a commentator. If you don't understand the problems that obvious bias create in news, then I suggest you read up on it. If you were to ask a conservative whether or not they thought Cenk was honest, they'd say no. And that IS a problem.

@dEdGrimley For someone who supposedly works with journalists, you don't have a very good grasp on the current political landscape in this country. And your "educated opinion" here is that if one far right wing repub doesn't think Cenk is honest, then we should treat that as a "problem"? Since when does any single member of the party of "no" whom constantly ignore the facts to protect their political careers, have any credibility whatsoever such that an unbiased person should listen to them?

Over your head, I guess. Reporters investigate and report news. No bias, just the facts. That's what they're supposed to do. That's why we're supposed to trust them. Cenk takes news that he reads about, and gives his spin and opinion. That's what a commentator does. Comments.
I'm going to go beyond and say it's not an opinion, it's fact - a journalist shouldn't appeal to anyone's political ideals. We shouldn't know their opinions. It's not important.

@dEdGrimley Nope, it apparently over your head buddy. You seem to be unable to understand the point that I am making. You can't trust the opinions of someone who is already biased against the truth (a republican), in order to make a judgment against someone is reporting the facts (Cenk). It's like having a U.S. player referee the U.S. world cup games. Comprende?

Oh for Christ's fucking sake... Let me get this straight for a second... Is this the first TYT video you've ever seen? You haven't heard Cenk EVER talk about Progressivism, Liberalism, how silly he thinks Conservatives are, etc.? If the answer to that question is "Yes, this is my first video", I'll excuse you and suggest that you watch others. If it's a "No", then I've got news for you: TYT is a show meant to cater to Liberals. I'm a Liberal, I like it. If I wasn't, I wouldn't.

@dEdGrimley Yeah, it caters to what we call "liberal" here in America. Which is still pretty much conservative to anyone who actually understands politics outside of the fucked up American bubble. So to say that Cenk needs to be "vetted" by what amounts to a right wing wacko (an American republican) shows that your perception of the political landscape is very skewed. So get off of your high horse because you obviously don't understand what the fuck I'm talking about.

You're right, I don't. That makes two of us then.
But there's no point in arguing this... Seriously, ask Cenk whether he considers himself a Reporter, or a Commentator. End of discussion.
But I'll just chime in one last time that you REALLY don't want your journalists to have clear and open biases. If you do... Imaginary God have mercy on us all.

@dEdGrimley I don't know that I'd say open bias is a trap. On the contrary, I think dropping the pretense of non-opinion is the only reason TYT is popular. With the amount of information that's immediately at anyone's disposal people would rather watch news that has their own perspective. If there is an audience with that perspective they will be drawn to it. It's only a problem when misinformation is spread which TYT is pretty good on. People will trust who they want to, not who is trustworthy

@Hobbsdude There are others. 'The Real News Network' and 'Democracy Now!' are particularly good.

@Hobbsdude Check "RussiaToday", "RTAmerica", "TheAlyonaShow" , "Aljazeera", "pulsescan72", "crabbydogtrix" and "DEMCAD" on Youtube. There are many more great journalists out there. Cenk and Ratigan are not the only ones doing a good job.
