  • Happy Birthday! dont join the 27 club!

  • America will be shit till 2020...

  • 49% should be the highest bracket.

  • TJ FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!

  • TJ FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!!!

  • Oh wow, he's a complete imbecile!

    America has a 79 trillion dollar medicare unfunded liability, but yeah the taxes just aren't high enough. The government is SO great at spending our money, if only they got to spend a greater % of it that would just fix everything wouldn't it?

  • Aww! How cute! TJ thinks he's an economist!

  • @Patience1138 did you notice the subtle sarcasm?

  • @theelephanttaco Not much subtlety to be found in his videos...

  • @Patience1138 So even if he is right and he has good ideas, it means nothing because he's not a qualified 'economist'? So what? Wtf? Is that your entire argument? Have you listened to anything in the video?

  • @DasSchonsteKind No argument. Just an observation. However, since you bring it up, qualified or not, he's speaking on matters he doesn't actually understand. That is all. Take that how you will.

  • You have my vote

  • This is TJ's best video.

  • actually it was spending to much that got us the defeceit

  • TJ has my vote =P

  • Bumfuck retarded spending is what gave America a deficit, not the tax cuts.

  • @Cozmolyne and your how stupid? the tax cuts gave us the deficit becaause we have less money to cover everything needed and the rich need to pay higher taxes considering they make a fuck of alot more than us

  • @kurama10271

    If we didn't spend so much, there wouldn't be a need to raise taxes.

  • @Cozmolyne while yes we do spend alot but we dont spend it on the right shit, however we still need to spend to keep the economy afloat just need to raise the taxes on the rich just a tiny bit that way we have everything we need to get everything underway. there is a need to raise taxes because of these stupid ass tax cuts

  • @Cozmolyne BS, not including the war machine costs and reducing the tax revenue by not taxing the super-rich pretty much anything is what got us in a deficit. Bush, first president to play make believe and keep military wars off the budget. Obama, no friend of mine, but at least he was EFFING HONEST enough to put Iraq/Afghanistan on the budget.

    Year after year after year, same story, supply side N E V E R W O R K S, never had, no reason to think it will, unless you're a liar. F U. Liar.

  • @yankslosewoohoo

    You basically proved my point. Spending has go us in a deficit. Our national guard is enough to take down a European military, I think we're good to go for the next century.

    EVERY economic system will fail given the circumstances.

  • @yankslosewoohoo

    Oh, and I read that reply you've sent on my channel. You're not very good at covering your rhetoric, are you? You accuse me of "sugar-coating" things when you do the exact same with that "I'm smarter because I'm older" horseshit, and without/refusing to hear my argument, nonetheless!

    I don't want close-minded sheep like you on my channel, enjoy being blocked. :)

  • @Cozmolyne it was the tax cuts, it really was, you believe what you want to but it was the tax cuts

  • @dorianleakey

    Man, you seem to think I believe it based on nothing, but I believe based on the fact that we had a massive spending spree, right around to time of this rescission. It wasn't the tax cuts, it was big government needing more fuel. If we shrink the size of the government to what the Constitution allows, not only will the rich and everything below be able to keep most of their money, but Constitutionalism can take root again.

  • @Cozmolyne Ok, I will be less extreme this time. The argument is between people who think the result of lowering taxes is stimulating the economy and people who think government spending boosts the economy.

    The big government thing is pretty much a philosophical argument and not really the problem.

    The only plausible way of fixing the economy would involve a time machine so that in 2006-7 spending was reduced, then a bit of stimulation would have been possible.

  • @dorianleakey

    It really isn't a philosophy. Say you have 2 dogs, one is a Teacup Poodle and the other a Great Dane; which dog will do you think requires more food? The smaller the dog we have, the longer the bag of doggy food with last.

  • @Cozmolyne Aahh yes, analogies.

    Trying to use that one to support big government, the great dane is a well trained dog that looks after itself and won't shit on the carpet and chew your favourite trainers, the poodle will do these things.

    Or, the poodle won't keep building roads, driving ambulances, arresting criminals and bringing them to justice.

    On the other hand the Great Dane loves big business and if we get a small poodle it will mean small business can compete, for some reason.

  • @dorianleakey

    If that Great Dane doesn't get proper amounts of food, it will cause more health issues and therefor, create more issue for you. Not to mention that Great Danes requires more space and that it's large structure makes a lot of problems for it's joints and bones. One thing to remember, if you train a dog poorly, they will act poorly, no matter what.

  • get the troops building bridges and roads so terrorists have more options to attack and no military to fight them on ther soil lol

  • There is an ad supporting Obama next to the video lol

  • I would vote TJ for president...but...I'm Swedish.

  • hello i am from another country may i ask people that make Obama like a communist they are joking or are this posters for real because if it is for real some people really have serious issues

  • This guys a douchebag

  • iPhone phucks.

  • You know what we SHOULDN'T do? Jam bananas up our asses.

  • Fuck The Amazing Atheist for raising taxes on the middle class and poor. You stupid fat fuck.

  • @PwnFilms Because he's president and actually did raise taxes on the middle class and poor.

    Oh...wait..

  • @PwnFilms The bush tax cuts didn't really cut taxes that much for the middle class, mostly for the upper class.

  • Haha he's had stool bigger than his stool

  • More Prison Planet bullshit. You are too funny. Does your mom still come by and do your laundry?

  • Vote Kincaid/Weber in 2020!!

  • we're all sitting on stools, fucker.

  • dude you remind me of Chris Farley. liking all of his video

  • Well, if he did die he would only turn into a tree.

  • profile of TheAmazingAtheist

    Hobbie : swearing

    Favourite word of hobbie :Effing *****

    second favourite : effing faggot.

    Amen

  • i feel bad because i was eating second breakfast when the straving children part came up

  • the government should reduce its size so the private sector can increase in size.

  • Has anyone noticed that this clown gets fatter with each video he makes?

  • @The420Destroyer Yea thats how Americans evolve.

  • let's build some shit

  • Tax cuts can never create a deficit. However, spending more than you have does create a deficit.

  • Fuck your iPhone! Android rock the house!

  • when i saw this video i thought the title was "Let's raise Texas" and i was like YEAH!

  • when does the spending on infrastructure stop?

    ps: deficits are created by over spending, u couldnt even tax 100% to pay for the promises made. so dont act like the one weak ass 10% tax cut means anything

  • Comment removed

  • TJ please run for president on 2020.

  • lol i thought the title said Let's Raise Texas

  • @Proclifo me 2

  • @Proclifo

    Same here.

  • @Proclifo Same here. :D

  • TJ for president.

  • Imagine if the defence budget were redirected at say, finding a cure for going bald.

    We would have it in a week and could then redirect it again.

  • Tax cuts on the rich promote buusiness. Tax cuts on everyone else is some sweet relief. and maybe Theamazingatheist should try having a tax paying job. Just search: why tax cuts are good for the economy, in google. By the way fiscal conservatives like me want tax cuts for everyone.

  • @XXTRUECHAOSXX And that's why were in a deficit. Because greedy fucks like you cant stand to pay a little more money for taxes. We also need to help the poor and educate the people, but you don't care about anyone but yourself. Feed the poor, give the people health care, send the people to collage, take the soldiers out of Iraq, Afganistan, and europe.

  • The owner of the company I work for is quite wealthy. Maybe he should pay higher taxes instead of giving me a paycheck. It also sounds like you need to get laid.

  • I completely agree.

  • we will never raise taxes on the rich. Even if they tell us that they did it would be bullshit.

  • I vote for a 40% taxation on the top 10% highest wealthy. And a fair tax on middle class.The rich should pay more proportionately because THEY CAN FUCKING AFFORD TO. It's not that we are discouraging sucess, we are discouraging selfishness and greed. TJ, military rebuilding the country- I thought of that also, genius idea! TJ for president 2020.

  • @HawkeyeLieutenant I have to respectfully disagree with you. Roosevelt in my opinion turned a depression into a "great" depression. I don't trust big government at all. They cannot run a post office, much less an economy or healthcare. One thing I'll tell you, it's nice having a decent conversation on youtube. I'm glad I'm not the only adult on here.

  • @HawkeyeLieutenant I absolutely do. Social democracy has destroyed Europe, it won't work here. Obama doesn't want that anyway. It's easy to figure him out. Read a little Alinsky, Marcuse, Adorno, Gramsci, and Hegel. Then look up the "Frankfurt school". We have our very first true communist in the W.H. I'm a firm believer in capitalism, and our constitution. There is no morality to taking from one to give to another who hasn't earned it. Raised by a Drill Sgt.? That had to be intense!!

  • @ TheAmazingAtheist- I completely Agree!!!!!

  • 0:55 - 1:07 dose anyone now were i can find this ants are marching theme song?

  • @MuslimRebelRevolte "When johnny comes marching home"?

  • "compromise" is relative. the fact that your political views do not agree with mr. obama's means nothing more than that your political views do not agree with his, not that he is comprising. i do not see how no one else has pointed this out.

  • I already pay enough taxes motherfucker. What I gotta feed your bloated ass too?? You'd have money if you got a real job. You know nothing about economics. This is one troop who'd fuck you up.

  • @4thinfantry112 you work for the military. most people don't consider that a real job; just free schooling for blowing shit up. that's not to say i don't respect intelligent troops. however, most of you (from who i've met that is) are nothing more than little boys in a grown man's skin more susceptible to primitive hormones than most.

  • @imsuperior1227 No, I did serve. Then I payed my way through school, worked two jobs when I had to and supported myself. Your opinion of most of us doesn't matter. You do not matter, you're just another schmuck with a victim mentality. People like you will send Uncle Sam to take our hard-earned money because you can't do it yourself. It's not anybody's fault but your own that your a failure.

  • its not the tax cuts that brought on this it was entitlements

  • Well I'll be fine because I live in the other side of the world :) No invading countries for us :)

  • Dont dare to call the name of Ethiopia any more,

  • Another thing to look into, is how low taxes were back in the day, (20 dollars a year adjusted for inflation) and in just 200 something years we became the wealthiest nation in the world.

  • Terroja 2020- He will fix shit.

  • What is this song called played during this video, please send me a message anyone who can immediately, it would be very appreciated.

  • I'd elect you

  • Raise taxes? Is this asshole fucking insane? I only make 20,000 a year, and by the end I'll have to give up a good 2500 towards society, plus with gas and ever rising insurance, that's another 2500 maybe more not to mention food, and whatever problems I might have with my used car. If my taxes were to go up, I'd injure myself and get workers compensation instead, fuck that. Why can't this fat piece of shit get a real job in the real world instead of sitting behind the computer spouting nonsense?

  • @Jigallo6654

    "a real job"

    Fuck you are epic morron or what?

    He makes his own money so he have a REAL job.

    Or by real job you mean clean toilets like you do?

  • @Mindpovver "He makes his own money so he have a REAL job."

    His only job is spewing out bullshit through that disgusting cocksucker of his, and what I mean by job is one that puts actual use in society, and does something. I make pressure gauges for cars, and I have a 4 year college degree, I don't have a better job because of how fucked up the ass the economy is, and believe me, I need all the money I can get. Also if you're going to use the word "moron" you might want to spell it right.

  • @Jigallo6654 Well good job, you make items that go into cars that need oil what fucks up the environment, Happy? What TJ does here might not effect siciety as a whole, sure, but for the few poeple the does manage to convince, politically and rleigiously alike, can change things. Every little helps.

  • "fucks up the environment"

    Where do you think Microsoft and all the other computer corporations dump all there toxic waste from computer manufacturing? African and Asian countries. By your logic If your so concerned about the environment, don't use a computer and don't eat because gas guzzling trucks are what ship food to department stores. Also these pressure gauges will be adapted to go into hydrogen cars, when they are fully developed so you can go fuck yourself or better yet, get a job.

  • @shazzy544 "What TJ does here might not effect siciety as a whole,"

    I He does, he produces more economic illiterates which in turn vote for more socialist policies which in turn makes everything even more expensive, which in turn makes me want to injure myself to get workers compensation because I'll be damned if I can't make a little bit of money while I'm at work paying off my 4 year college loan.

  • @Jigallo6654 Alright, becuase TJ`s want to deflate the horridly bloatyed and bulging military budget will fuck up the economy? Free health care isnt socialism. Rasing taxes to raise ehalthcare wich gives you free healthcare and in turn makes you pay LESS does not fuck you ove3r

  • @shazzy544 "because TJ's want to deflate the horridly bloatyed and bulging military budget"

    It will. How are we supposed to get oil when it runs out? Whose going to invade countries full of brown people? What about national security? Did you forget about 9/11? Islamic fascism does exist.

    "Free healthcare isn't socialism"

    Yes it is, any service provided by taxes are socialist things, be it good or bad. Socialism is where people pool their money together for those things jackass.

  • @shazzy544 "in turn makes you pay LESS"

    Reread my first argument to you carefully smart ass, I said I didn't buy any health insurance for the simple fact that I didn't need it, I take care of myself, I don't smoke, drink, party, or any other bullshit that destroys my body. So yes I and any other responsible person does get fucked over when taxes are raised for that purpose, idiot.

  • @Mindpovver Also, using words like epic, fail and win makes you look like a trendy whore, whose trying so vainly to fit in, so can you please grow up and get a job or something?

  • @Jigallo6654 Im pretty sure this video is sarcastic...

  • @blaze643 I certainly hope so, because look at those gas prices and how well Obama's spending worked.

  • @Jigallo6654 I don't live in the US, but it's much cheaper than in Europe or Canada. But I'm sure TAA is trolling because he's actually against raising taxes (from what I remember) and tends to troll most people.

  • @Jigallo6654 More taxes=better healthcare=you wont be getting job insurance long

  • @shazzy544 I'm talking about car insurance, and I take care of myself, I don't drink, smoke, do drugs, or even party. Put it simply I don't need health insurance and I don't need my fucking taxes raised. End of story.

  • You fucking ROCK!

  • Saying tax cuts caused the deficit is like saying small pants caused your weight problem.

  • @elsquibbs ~ bush tax cuts added trillions to the deficit. and we had the worst growth rate in 80 years, compounding revenue in-take. you see how that works? you give tax cuts to filthy rich billionaires, don't pay for wars, or subsidies to oil, pharmaceuticals, and insurance companies, write up tax havens and loops holes for corporations who make billions and pay zero in taxes. and you run up a deficit.

    a deficit tea baggers were mum on when republican presidents were spending us broke.

  • taxes are BS its unfair to charge the rich more than the poor....the taxes should be the same for all.

  • @satar666 In percentages. Yes, you're right. It's been annoying to see the fact that in my country how they increase the taxes based on the per capita income from 15% for the ones who barely reach the minimum wage to like 50% for the richest... no matter what, 15% of $20000 is still more than 15% of $2000... politicians sometimes act as if they knew nothing about math.

  • First video of yours that I saw, and it's every bit as bad as I thought it would be.

    Where is the evidence that tax cuts created the deficit? Federal revenue was 2 trillion in year 2000. Tax cuts happened in 2001, and 2003. Revenue increased steadily up to 2.5 trillion in 2007, and didn't drop until the recession. Lack of revenue is never the cause of government deficits. No matter how much of our money they steal, they'll always find a bottomless pit of a program to dump it in.

  • Tax cuts & government spending cuts worked in the past.

    In 1920 taxes were cut, and in a few short weeks unemployment fell from 12% to 2%.

    Details are explained here: /watch?v=czcUmnsprQI

  • @LibertyDownUnder

    Yeah, 1920, 90 years ago. Things are different now. . . Didn't think it was necessary to say that.

  • @JayMann620, the principle hasn't changed.

    Governmet spending comes at the expense of the private sector. In other words, more government jobs = less private sector jobs.

    And since public salaries are much higher today, this is even more the case now.

  • @LibertyDownUnder That's why it aggravates me to no end when I hear politicians talk about "creating jobs." The fact that anyone votes for these evil, lying fucks really displays the economic illiteracy of the average American.

  • Wow this guy is a fucking incompetent

    But I love his Carisma

  • We want to live in a civilized society, but don't wish to pay anymore taxes, we want to balance the budget by cutting from areas that have already been cut. People want more and want to give less. Sounds like a joke show. I can't wait till I move away from this country, Americans don't care about anything, but themselves, and in a game of global politics, this country will crumble in time. And when it happens, I'll be in another country, watching the news as they cover the revolts in NY and LA.

  • "War Mongering Crazy FUCKHEADS" hahahahahaha

  • Repuplican or Democrat you and your society is coming to an end, your food on the table, to much or to little is no longer important. your identity as a legitiment nation is crumbling. unfortunatly this is your future. your opinions are nothing more then 'piss in the winds' as to say. good by america and thanks for all the good times

  • aaaa

  • I have an extra idea. Let's unite with out closest friend, Canada. North American Union lol. Capitol in NY, and the troops could be extra police officers as well which would stop the gangs. If we united with Canada then think of the oil.

  • how exactly does giving money to people cause a deficit?

  • you look larger in this vid, not sure if its because the stool or what

  • Get an exercise bike! XD

  • you know i usually find your points to be a bit too radical but your idea for the troops is a damn good one, wont happen but a strategy i havent heard yet that is decent! (i call them all decent because if there was one fucking great one, we'd do it)

  • Es tut mir leid, aber ich habe keine Zeit fur deine Scheisse.

    Fick dich und auf Wiedersehen.

  • The public employee unions have been gang raping this country like the Islamic mob gang raped CBS reporter Lara Logan.

    State governments have a 5.17 trillion dollar public employee pension liability with no way to pay for it...

    They are printing money and this is going to drive your food prices much higher.

    T.J. is a fat fuck who needs to go on a diet anyway...

  • TJ, i tried to do a vid response with a Rachel Maddow vid debunking Reaganomics notion that Tax Cuts "Voodoo economics" benefit the economy and "own" vids by two Libertarian Fascist Tea Party douche nozzles who did vid responses but it did not accept

  • @VampiressOnDaProwlq

    You are a lunatic control freak who believes in a police state...

  • @SirWinstonChurchill

    just because i want to stop Tax Cuts for multi-mil & billionaires who only pay 36% Rate and i want to stop Tax Breaks for BP & Exxon, the richest companies on the planet, that made highest profits in the universe in human history last 10 yrs in a row, i want a police state? LOL

    and Public Employee Labor unions are the ones gang raping the country's budgets? lol really now?

    my family are one of those multi-millionaire families lobbying to pay higher 70% Rate. we're traitors?

  • @VampiressOnDaProwlq

    You are just a dumb IRA cunt...

  • @SirWinstonChurchill

    you're so insecure and threatened by me that you use insults that dont even apply to me?

    by the way, the malware attacks to stop me from commenting by making me have to put in captcha letters over and over didnt work lol

    i know how to defeat that tactic with MIT issued anti-malware software. see i'm commenting you. ha ha ha ; P

  • @VampiressOnDaProwlq

    I can't hear you with that turd in your mouth...

  • god damn i hate this asshole. a fat fuck pontificating about lack of food? He doesnt have any kids to feed, he didnt lose his job after 20 years and can't find a comporable paying job to keep a roof over his family's head.

    Fuck you AA.

    John Wayne attitude? 95% of left wing fuckfaces i meet cannot bring any facts to the table w/o bring up Bush and iraq.

    Bush does not = conservative, Iraq war does not sum up American foreign policy.

  • Iphone ha! I use a ipod touch which is lighter, does all ipod functions through a mifi for $35. All free apps give me unlimited text, calls and jail broken apps give me market apps for free. Eat that with your deliciously absurd expensive data plan, phone plan, and text plan you cannot escape because your so "cool and techy".

  • i will vote for you in 2020, what was the song playing towords the end of the video? i cant remember the name

  • You're a fucking moron if you think raising taxes will cure the federal deficit. Government doesn't create jobs, that's not why the government exists. CORPORATIONS create jobs, and the more you raise their taxes, the more people are going to get laid off work. The only way to rid us of the deficit is to stop giving our money to uncle Sam since all he does is spend it on stupid shit like trillion dollar bailout packages. You need to stop acting like you know what you're talking about.

  • Do you hate "God" Because your fat? I am just wondering because that is your fault.

  • I would vote for you.

  • 18% is more people than you think dude. Just because you are well off, doesn't mean everyone else is.

  • Being that I'll be able to vote in 2012, I've got to say that you already have my vote TJ!

  • Why can i hear epic music in the background? Am i crazy or can someone else?

  • @ExLunchLady you just did

  • im so glad i live in england

  • Haha. Yes TAA, intake of less money gave us a deficit, not too much spending. At some point you need to apply logic outside of your dislike of religion.

  • @jeebisnilius What the fuck does that have anything to do with him being an atheist!? God damn can you make fucking coherent sentence?! Did you just look at his name and then block out everything he just fucking said?!

  • The country profits off war it stimulates the economy. You have no idea what your talking about.

  • @Herimia can i ask how??

  • @Herimia Actually you don't know what you are talking about. The whole of America does not benefit from the military-industrial complex. This arrangement is about stealing fortunes from tax payers & giving it to fascist corporations. True corporations "make" a lot of money for the minority elite of American plutocracy, & a tiny proportion of this is trickled onto working families in a lovely golden shower. But America's Orwellian perpetual wars are about making the rich richer with tax revenue.

  • @Herimia

    Then the US shouldn't be in a recession then should it?

    The only time they profit is when they steal resources from whatever poor country they bomb or shoot.

  • lower the taxes we dont need cheap fks feeding off the teats.

  • What a fat moronic slob.

  • @19cjs67 Make a point instead of talking shit, cunt.

  • Wow I'm going to be completely honest, I suggested that we withdraw our troops and all foreign military bases and raise taxes to my class in a debate and I was shut down by everyone. (But I also went one step further and said we should stop giving billions in "humanitarian" aid).

    Then I see this video, and it makes me happy to know that there still are logical people out there.

  • Fuck you man

  • what's that song in the background

  • @mizakzee "the ants go marching down"

  • Hahaha the back grown music is used in the 3rd Die Hard movie, and my family is watching Die Hard in the other roomx)

  • why 2020

  • @mizakzee because you have to be 35 years old or older to run for the president of the united states. and TJ is 25 years year old in this video

  • Let's abolish taxes.

  • I'm not even kidding here, I'd vote for him if he ran, too bad I'm from the UK....

  • TJ FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!

  • @gtisthebest247 Vote for TJ and I won't kill you. Everybody wins! Well, except for me. I have to wait for TJ to become president so he can cover up me killing you, but I can wait. Vote for TJ and you can live until he's elected! Hurrah!

  • This video is simply a diatribe of authoritarian douchebaggery

  • can someone please tell me the name of the music

  • I watched TJ until I found TYT...

  • Comment removed

  • Let's Raze Texas

  • overspending and too much government creates the deficit mr. atheist

  • @D5932 it's not our job to make sure other countries keep peace. If some other countries go to war, that's their problem. The u.s. Needs to stop being the big brother and mind it's own damn business.

  • @PunkHeart677 you see only what's being done right now. you don't see what can happen or what could have happened without troops.

  • in that chaos your old enemies can easily steal someone's bomb, and drop on your infrastructure. I think most Americans like you ignore some facts. You CAN'T just pull everything back. while most non-american people blame you as imperialists, I see America as being a potential peace keeper.
