  • Once again Cenk misrepresents the conservative argument. NOBODY said to get rid of the I.R.S. without tax reform. Rand Paul said he wants to replace income taxes with a national sales tax. Anytime you buy an item at a store you pay an extra tax that essentially replaces your income tax payment. Theres no way to avoid paying taxes for ANYONE, least of all the 40% who currently pay nothing. Those who buy more pay more tax. And no need for the I.R.S. as there would be no more federal income tax.

  • Love this show but did u seriously just big up Rand Paul? The racist who suggested that we do away with the civil rights act tenant that dictates private establishments are not allowed to discriminate?

  • Ran Paul? Does he mean Ron Paul?

  • @YuanMizzle rand paul....ron pauls son.

  • I wish I lived in Dodd's state so I could NOT vote for him! Ughhh! *bangs head violently against the wall*

  • You're right, most businesses would probably not accommodate the disabled if the Americans with Disabilities Act was abolished. However, the people of this country have the power to not patron those businesses. I don't think it would take long for the businesses to realize that it is in their best interests to become accommodating.

  • You're right, most businesses probably would not agree to accommodate the disabled if the Americans with Disabilities Act was abolished. However, people have the power to not do business with such companies. I don't think it would take long for those companies to find it there best interests to accommodate the disabled.

  • Libertarians are still acting on agents as self-interested rational actors and so when left alone they'll naturally do the right thing eventually--of course all of that is shaky just based on empirical observation alone. I thought we've already moved past all that? Sorry, I just got caught assuming general rational agency.

  • Guess who escaped any type of financial reform talk...Fannie Mae! Be sure to watch both Peter Schiff and Phil Grande blast Barney Frank this week. Of course, Cenk continues to protect Barney Frank's fanny/Fannie(eww...gross!)

  • I watch TYT EVERY DAY!!! It's the onl nws I watch!!!!!!!!!

  • It's a little too late to be sad about the war. Fuck You! The damage is done. And when these guys come home with their twisted car wreck of traumatized minds, some politician fuck will pat himself on the back for ending the war. It will then be fashionable to detest war. And make no mistake, the reason all of this has happened is because of the silent majority. War is the greatest example of how people only really care about themselves, because if the people didn't allow it, it wouldn't happen.

  • @wonderwhaz797

    but war is cool and it cleans out the gene pool. I mean poor people usually go to do the fighting while the rich profits from the war.

  • your stupid obama. and move along son

  • i hate libertarian !!! they are just as bad are the Republicans and i hate the Republicans a well !!!

  • @unelmitchell First off you dont know what Libertarians are or what they stand for second off, you are a liberal drone, your man is ruining this country get yourself educated.

  • @unelmitchell Hm mind explaining why? Im interested.

  • @unelmitchell

    libertarians are fucktards as much as the gop. They only care about rights when it comes to them but they won't fight for gay other people's rights.

  • wow its cool you guys had an anime as your add <3 do that more often :3 better then hearing about Tim Kayhill or w.e all the time XD

  • The audio for these videos are always overmodulated. It hurts my ears sometimes

  • Maybe her ratings did suck but maybe they booted her out like they did Lou Dobbs

  • hire even

  • @thebuilder86 it was 80 some % intill the income tax came along i would like to get taxed less then others but you know what almost all jobs come from high income people but to say be successful so we can take more of your money has never been good incentive to get people to higher people to make more goods to increase profits to increase staff to increase output and so on so how about government does what its supposta like label harmful stuff and let people decide what to buy with minimal taxes

  • Hey Cenk, I don't see how the netflix ad has helped the show. I hope you're getting something out of it, cause I'm not.

  • @tristan9812 They get paid. That's what ads are for.

  • @JoeyBieg No shit, but they aren't putting that money back in to the show obviously because it's the exact same show as before, except now there's annoying ad every time I watch.

  • @JoeyBieg No shit, but they aren't putting that money back in to the show obviously because it's the exact same show as before, except now there's annoying ad every time I watch.

  • @tristan9812 It's not going to show up within the first week. It took them a lonnnng time to get HD. Plus, they also have to put some of that money in their pockets.

  • that sucks. I loved cambell brown.

  • 28:10

    He talks briefly about Net-Neutrality (very important for free speech)

  • I like Cenk, but his racialist jokes suck. Cenk, you need to stop.

  • This seems a bit like what happened in the UK, they did not vote as expected, they voted for change because they didn't trust any of them. There was confusion on election night because they wasn't a pattern. People all over the world are sick of being sold out by our governments, left or right wing.

  • so are they allowed to overthrow government violently or no?

  • i actually met a Republican from Portland Oregon who lied right to my face and said that if I voted for McCain/Palin that they'd end "Don't Ask Don't Tell". I'm not that stupid, I voted for Barack Obama.

  • @WhiteFlowerLei76 we dont vote republican here, lol (from oregon)

  • @meatnug I don't vote Republican. Never have, seriously doubt I ever will.

  • He or she who sucketh at basketball shall sucketh as a governor. But ye shall be famous as a GOP VP nominee.

  • Why didn't Cenk know ahead of time all the stuff Maddow talked about last night w/ regard to Rand Paul being for private businesses being allowed to discriminate against minorities, etc?

  • and i love how people attack the 2nd amendment when it is there to protect against the most common thing done by large governments and doesn't allow for violence against the federal government unless it is either killing large numbers of people then the state militia is supposta kick them out OR the federal government is denying there 10th amendment powers

  • cenk pro terrorists i see, and here is why the IRS admits that there is no law and the only way for them to collect taxes is fear and by any definition that is terrorism, aswell if cenk ever listened to anyone that talks about the "flat" tax there is no taxing of food,medical, housing, or energy. just non essentials as well as flooding the market with disposable income by giving people 15-40% to spend how they see fit. and just so you know what happens jfk cut taxes by 50% and doubled tax intake

  • @majikninja07 the flat tax is a huge give away to the richest people and a huge tax on the poorest people. it is trickle down economics bullshit and will never be introduced. rich should pay a higher % than other ppl do and it should be higher than 40%.

  • @thebuilder86

    In the Netherlands, everything you get in income above 55.000 euro's a year, you pay 52% income tax on :) Ohhh our socialist state haha.

  • @SinisterSkip wait, but the Netherlands is awesome right?

  • @daymyth

    Far from optimal, but less useless defense spending, lower unemployment, better working conditions, stronger unions, no anonymous campaign funding, much lower health costs etc. Yeah, I'm glad I live in the Netherlands.

  • @SinisterSkip So healthcare and socialism hasn't completely destroyed your country like the republicans are saying it will.... I'm shocked...

  • @daymyth

    Just like capitalism, socialism isn't a bad thing, as long as it's moderate socialism and moderate capitalism. Every extreme form of either of the bad will destroy a country's organisation.

  • @SinisterSkip Although I agree with you, that moderation of the two is the nicest method. I envision a world where there are no longer countries, just corporations and everything is run in equilibrium forces by a completely free market, it wouldn't be a fun place to live for alot of people, but I see it working.

  • @daymyth

    If your for the free market, you'd also be against bailing out the banks, because that IS government inferferance. In a free market, there may be no regulations, but there will also be no bailouts, so banks will collapse. They will need to learn it the hard way. You take risks that are way too big, you can fall. There's something to be said for that, but it will never happen. The most stable way is regulations on banks, to prevent them taking way too much risk with our money.

  • @SinisterSkip Oh yea I'm definitely against the bailouts 100%, you should have let the market sort its self out. It's like the worst idea ever to keep organisations that completely screwed your country afloat.

    Yea, I'm actually for banks collapsing, learn the hard way.

    Buy I'm not sure about a completely free market. I'm not sure that's entirely a good idea. Moderation in all things as you've said before.

    My example about hte corporate dysotopia is just a system that could work.

  • @thebuilder86 Australia has a system like that, where there is a low income threshold where you don't pay tax under $18.5k ish... And the tax rate increases on every bracket increase in wealth. But the ultra wealthy find so many loopholes to pay as little tax as possible.

  • How did Cenk become a liberal? I always hear him talking about having been a Republican and a Conservative, which is so hard to believe. How did it happen?

  • @RichardMontalban

    I think he said he got put off by what republicans were starting to stand for, or something like that.

  • Spitzer would be really really good.

  • KULONGOSKI FTW

  • Canada needs guys like you.

  • Add an amendment to ban alcohol consumption while carrying a gun?

  • That number ticking at the end of the clip regardign the death toll, was creepy. It's just a number ticking away. But when you think about it, that number is a life. Very creepy indeed.

  • (At 36:00) BWAAA-HA-HA-HA!

  • He wants to get rid of the Federal dept of education. don't worry folk your date dept of education would still be in place, there were public schools before Jimmy Carter created the federal dept of education. So don't you are the only one for education because u support a federal bureaucracy.

  • @uche007us - Not to be a spelling or proper punctuation nazi but your comment is glaring proof of the need for a Dept of Education.

  • @chariotdrvr14 yes because they have done such a great job with uche already lets give them a couple million more kids to turn into retards

  • As crazy as you think Rand Pauls views are, we equally think some of your views are crazy and "kooky".

  • no way dude, IRS was for the people: Constitution taxes the Corporations for the benefit of the people, correct me if I'm wrong.

  • Facebook banned in Pakistan, Congras to all Pakistanis, we have done it again, Wake up Call for all muslim world.

  • @PakiWarior I'm hoping you were being sarcastic. islam is bullshit start to finish. Muslims believe in Adam and Eve, and that mankind was created 6,000 years ago. Science disproves that as human fossils have been found that are over 200,000 years old. Woops. Not to mention that muhammad was a paedophile and slave owner. drawing caricatures of him is entirely appropriate. pakistan is obviously a very badwards place and people must be very insecure about their religion if they block a whole site

  • @PakiWarior Youtube is banned there too, what's your point?

  • News flash: people die in war. Eradicating radical Islamic terrorists is a good cause. Death to all terrorist scum. After all, Isn't death what they desire most.

  • @Dominick629

    hey domidick666, the problem is when drones, bombs and raids kill ten fold innocent people than they kill radical extremists, not that you have the right to kill someone for being a radical extremist in the first place.

    and if your logical argument is that people who want to kill others deserve to die, ask yourself this question

    if i want to have sex with your mother or sister - depending on their ages - do i deserve for them to have sex with me ?

    think about it.

  • @ufster81 Sure, you make no mention of the great majority of innocent civilians killed by Terrorists. And you say we do not have the right to kill individuals that are trying to kill us? What type of cowardly masochist are you? By the way, your first sentence isn't as witty as you think it is. I could hear the gears grinding in your head trying to come up with it. Maybe form a logical argument next time and you'll be taken seriously. Till then, enjoy being an irrelevant idiot.

  • @Dominick629

    sure, you make no mention of the great majority of terrorists that are able to kill the civilians because the governments of those countries have been destroyed along with their security infrastructure by the occupying forces.

    i am saying you don't have the right to kill someone because they say they want to kill you or that they believe you should be dead. words =/= actions in terms of power.

    it seems your brain is working overtime hearing imaginary noises. cut the coffee.

  • @ufster81 He's not bright enough to understand that people tend to get pissed off when their family members are blown away by an occupying power who accidently murdered their family to "protect them".

    And when someone loses his family, his loved ones, his city and his country and decides to take himself out with as many people from tha country that killed his family, it's monstrous to us, but we created the bomber and refuse to bear the responsibility of what we created.

  • @Dominick629

    btw, i'm sorry to see the domidick remark got under your skin. so much to try and insult my intelligence in return. if it's going to make you comfortable, i'll call you mobydick ... i mean ... domiprick .... i mean ... dominique

    just those gears man, once they start revving, they keep revving.

  • @Dominick629 "Eradicating radical Islamic terrorists is a good cause. Death to all terrorist scum."

    *

    Just change a few words, here and there, and your post could originate from an Islamic Fundamentalist or North Korea. (E.G., "Eradicating Imperialist warmongers is a good cause! Death to all US Imperialists and their running dogs!")

  • who the hell is Ran Paul? its Ron.

  • @Tackzi Rand Paul is Ron's son.

  • @Tackzi it's Rand Paul. Go ahead, google him.

  • I love Cenk's silly voice :D

  • TYT isnt going to mention that pakistan banned facebook? Because of DRAWINGS!!

  • The nice thing about Rand Paul is that his crazy ideas really have no chance of getting anywhere in Washington, leaving only his mistrust of government which is quite attractive to most voters :P

  • Wasn't the education department scrapping a Glenn Beck thing?

  • Ran Paul... does he mean Ron Paul?

  • @Tatert212 Rand Paul is the son of Ron Paul.

  • @Tatert212 Rand is Ron's son I believe

  • coo-lin-gaw-see

  • Cenk I have a question. If they pull out that important card which can possibly lead to the entire pack crushing in on itself, isn't it a wise move not to pull that card just yet? What else can the government do but delay the total collapse? Maybe you should also tell the viewers an alternative solution to all the things that matter. BTW I am not an American, I just a regular viewer and I am asking out of curiosity. As a viewer I would like to know of a better alternative. Thanks

  • im up to 18:00,just a reminder for me so i can click on. sorry i need to sleep, be back tomorrow. :)

  • I hate to sound callous, but a major war fought in hellish and convoluted conditions like Afghanistan, and we lose 1000 soldiers over *9* years-thats a STAGGERINGLY impressive statistic.Consider that in 2008, 2800 teens(15-19) died in car crashes.The year before that, 3200 died.These soldiers died for something worthy of giving their lives.The fact we have lost so few should be a cause for praise in tactics and training,not fodder for pundits.

    Honor the fallen dead, but don't forsake the living.

  • @OverShadow117 Anyone who thinks that the casualties in afghanistan are ridiculously high needs to learn a bit about other wars... How many million soldiers dies in the world wars? Im not belittling the sacrifices the soldiers in afghanistan have made... Just putting it in perspective a bit.

  • @OverShadow117 How many innocent civilians died?

    How many did we kill and label collateral damage?

    How many did we murder and cover up?

    How many innocents are being tortured in our gulags?

    How many terrorists got into power because we collapsed Saddams govt?

    How many Iraqi/afgani homes were levelled?

    How many are without water?

  • @dffykvn These have nothing to do with the rather low numbers of US troops lost, but I'll play along.

    I'm sorry during our initial attacks and some current missions, our troops kill civilians in Iraq/Afgan. But no war has ever been free of civilian casualties. Does that mean we shouldn't have gone? No. How many people do you think the Taliban tortured and killed for just expressing an opposing opinion?

  • @OverShadow117 Our guys murdered pregnant women, dug bullets out of their corpses with knives, and lied to the civvies that they were killed by fundamentalists in honor killings.

    True heroism.

    How about the chopper pilots who shots at a group of journalists? Killed the guys coming to bring them to hospitals and the 2 children in the cars.

    What a service!

  • @OverShadow117 Whenever we drop a bomb and kill civilians we call it collateral damage and see it as just a number on CNN or w/es crawler.

    Those were human fucking beings we murdered.

    Their families will rightfully blame us, and if some of them have lost everything they might do something just as terrible to retaliate. Blood is put on his hands and ours.

  • @OverShadow117 Every person we torture, every person we imprison without evidence, every time we ignore our own lawyers who say they can't properly represent their clients in our kangaroo courts, every person who confesses because of torture makes us more like them.

    They bomb torture and terrorize civilians with members on the ground.

    We do it in special forces night raids, drone strikes and at bagram air base.

  • @OverShadow117 We levelled a country because cheney wanted Haliburton/KBR stock price to rise.

    We won't stop funding and refuse to prosecute the murderers in blackwater.

    They aren't soldiers, their disgusting mercenaries that don't have any code of honor or decency and are more than happy to rape and kill knowing they'll never be prosecuted.

  • @dffykvn If you think rapes accusations going to far, one raped an iraqi or afgani girl and was flown out back to the us because they didn't want a fair trial.

  • @dffykvn  Do you know why Saddam never had a problem with terrorists? Cause he caused such fear in his people that they wouldn't betray him, and if any loyal members,or people who wanted to stay alive, caught wind of a possible terrorist next door, they had them and their families and their friends executed or imprisoned.

    Do a search for "Yellow cake uranium iraq msnbc" - Find out what YCU is and decide if it would have been better to have just left Saddam alone.

  • @OverShadow117 The saddams got nukes argument was debunked a while ago, the intelligence was ginned up.

    They got their "intelligence" from a yahoo that fed them lies to make them want war, they didn't perform a proper investigation and relied on that a holes stories as "proof"

  • @OverShadow117 We went to war on faulty intelligence, lies, made a show of the inspectors but would have fought whether they were allowed in or not, and killed a shitload of people that would otherwise still be alive and well if we hadn't gone in.

    Buildings would still be standing, homes wouldn't have been blown up, and we wouldn't have destroyed the only thing that kept the jihadi's at bay.

    Taking Saddam out also emboldened Iran, it no longer has it's regional rival staring them down.

  • @dffykvn The fact you believe the world, and the Iraqi people, would have been better off with Saddam left in power means I end this debate with you now.

  • That's like choosing between cutting off your arm or your leg. They weren't well off with Saddam, but they're hardly better off now with kidnapping, terrorism and religious persecution running rampant and still no government to speak of. Getting rid of Saddam would have been wonderful if Bush had spent even 5 minutes thinking about what to do after he was gone.

    Just because the media seems to have forgotten about Iraq don't kid yourself into thinking the surge made everything better.

  • hahaha turk go crazy 35:34

  • What is with all the ads all of a sudden?

  • @Spiderweb127 They need to make a living or they won't be able to continue the show. Who cares. It's a great show. You should "click" on the ads every now and then to support them or if you're a real fan. Peace.

  • @markblaster1 Oh back off. I wasn't talking about this show specifically. I was talking about youtube in general.

  • @Spiderweb127 adblock... havent seen an ad on youtube in ages... both firefox and chrome have it, use it

  • Comment removed

  • Why is following the Constitution "coo-coo"?

  • "old media" very, very old.

  • Ms Oklahoma was the winner. They only crowned another because she said how she honestly felt about the new Arizona Law rather than saying only what is popular

  • Yay--more TYT! I might just have to become a member b/c I just can't seem to get enough. But damn, I like the free stuff!

  • Where's Ana?

  • GOD DAMN LIBERAL, Bradley Burns. LOL.

    I love TYT best political show on youtube.

    Progressives are bring the pain, GO LIBERALS.

    Today was a good day, as ice cube once said.
