Ben Stein also explains that Obama will raise taxes for the middle class, and if Barack doubles the capital gains tax as he has proposed that will bankrupt the middle class' retirement funds.

    If you live in the city of New York, 75,000 gross leaves about 45,000 net. Rent of 2000/month plus utilities, you've got 15000 left. Try finding a place to park your car for less than 300-500 per month. That leaves 10000. Then you have groceries at 100/week IF YOU ARE FRUGAL, leaving 5000, then insurance eats up the rest and you have no money to wipe your rear with. THAT'S what he's talking about re the major cities in the US.

  • @sedatedcoho Well, its not the entire US thats like that, only the liberal run cities run down into high taxes, hyper inflation, and bankruptcy bc the morons can't get the spending under control.

see all

  • Ditch Israel and save yourselves a few Billion, and regain some foreign respect at the same time. a Win Win.

  • ohhhh shit he was right!

  • @DarthRiggle What is funny? You get your news from Comedy Central. You fall back onto Jon Stewart for your source of news information.

  • Ben I hope you make videos - your common sense views are refreshing.

  • taxes and the federal reserve are PRO- SEMITIC.

    TAX THE RICH, THE TAX MONEY GOES BACK TO THEM ANYWAYS

  • The problem I'm already having a minute into this is that the United States is NOT it's major cities. The states in least amount of debt right are the ones that do not have a major city. The tax cuts for the middle may be a joke for people in the cities, but last I looked that there are quite a few of us NOT living in city as well.

  • lol, he actually mentions private school. as if that is middle class. in my town, I drive a 6 year old chevy silverado. I make about $70k a year. people see us as wealthy. if I only make $20k over the LOWEST he considers to be middle class, he has never been outside the most expensive 10 cities in the US. over $100k a year, IS RICH. you can choose your own expense of living by where you choose to live.

  • ben stein shows us how he's going to ***** up the economy, that guy is an idiot........seriously have problems.

  • @almaster666 Well at least he doesnt get mad on the internet Lmao, thats the very definition of stupidity.
