"You poor people have enough money, just shrink your lvies" Every argument they said is a great argument for taxing the big corp and the rich.

The level of stupidity, ignorance and bad faith displayed by those two is simply amazing.

Yet they are admired, quoted and relied upon as authorities. Dsnt look optimistic.

My brother thinks like this. He is well off, I am not. When I talk about universal healthcare , etc he says “we can’t have that, who would serve him on vacation.”

well honestly dr phil is going to hell if there is one, he made his money not helping mentally ill people but publicly humiliating them.

educated people lean left because they are informed and educated. increase 10 fold for persons in higher ed

$12,000 a year is too much money? Cool make that the maximum wage, remove the excess wealth and assets of billionaires and give them food stamps for their understanding.

Funny how Mr.Phill never mentioned employers asking the question “what was the reason for this gap in your employment?”. If you’re off work long enough some places just won’t hire you.

Not sure if he's thinking like OF cam girls on welfare - or what I have seen this in person at my IT software company. While the nerds (mostly men) come into the lab to set up test equipment and build customer systems from complex deployment guides ... sometimes flying out to customer sites to fix issues ... many women in the office took "Cost Adjustment Manager" jobs where they almost never have to come in - and wind up taking off at 3pm every day to take care of the "kiddos" earning a comfortable mid-$100K salary (nobody dares question their contribution). Meanwhile, the nerds in the lab are working 10+ hours a day - barely breaking six figures (this is in a market where the average price of a home is $600K).

There is a future. You just have to look at how to cut your costs and use the internet to your advantage. There are people making hundreds of thousands from simple short-form videos. Perhaps get a higher education, get a job that pays way more and live comfortably. Like with many doctors. There are definitely options.

The reality is there's no such thing as middle class. You are either owner class or worker class and the rich owner class does not want you in their club. And they do not want you to examine how they are pillaging America for their own personal gains. So blame everything on the poor and get every worker divided.

Fun Fact: Dr. Phil joined his dad's private psych practice which later partnered with a company that did bogus self-help seminars. Phil sold his share in '91 for $325K (~$750K in '24) to start a trial consulting firm used by Oprah, after which she recurringly had him on her show and effectively gave him his own show. He worked SO hard!

Thanks to everyone who commented here. You have all expressed what I thought but better than I could have written it. Good to know there are still people who understand the problems in society.

Real world is high school. Nothing changed. Same backstabbing same petty cliques.

2 rich guys acting like they know what it's like to work a job and not know where your next paycheck is coming from

0:40 Right, because there is no competition in academia. You get a PhD on demand for free if you want one, then you just pick the school where you want a tenured professorship, and you're done!

Getting older and hearing folks like this is a huge reason I don't really trust people who believe "tough love" is inherently a good thing. And folks who think we should pretty much make policies based on "tough love", makes it even worse to believe them if they claim they truly care about the well being and freedom of others.

When all you talk about is equality of outcome and ignore equality of opportunity you know you are dishonest. All these guys worry about is getting taxed on their riches. Like a lot of rich people, the more they have the more they do to keep it. Notice how they dont question why a university education costs 200k in the first place.

Thank you so much sam! I am on disability and have to live on $1,030 a month and I catch shit like this from these assholes all the time! I am a Penn grad that lost his brakes. I thought this Phil guy was a real academic.

When he was talking about people selling their car and "getting used to" having a lower income did he really just shit on people for changing their expenditures to fit within their means? So you are lazy if you adjust your living standard when your income decreases. What should you do? Use debt to maintain the standard so you don't get "used" to being poorer?

Rich guy says "no one wanted to work"... I remember working the whole time. Everyone I worked with the whole time...

So the message to middle classers is: you're getting poor because of poor people. Not the rich. Definitely not the filthy, market-manipulating, price-gouging corporate rich. Got it.

People "didn't go back to work" is that they didn't go back to their old piss poor paying jobs. They took the time to go back to school to get a better paying job or started up their business such as - Twitch streams or other content creators, using their hobby as a business, learned a new skill to start a new business. Maybe they are making the same money they did before but are much happier because they are now doing something more enjoyable. Workers understand their worth now and are tired of being treated like an "expense" and not an "asset" to their employers.

Dr. Phil is so good at his job that the “cash me outside” girl made a million dollars in one day on only fans from the fame his show gave her. Really building strong, independent adults there, Doctor.

His show is ending his further job

It's sad that they cry about the incentives to stay unemployed are mostly due to health care costs, housing, and not needing childcare. If you work and make a little money they take away all help, which makes it impossible. If we had universal healthcare and child care, which cost more than what a low wage worker earns, means their survival is more important than trying to be employed.

I worked for a couple of big-time professors in a college-rich area and if he doesn't think they're competitive? wow, he really is clueless about academia.

"Every person these two come in contact with is on their payroll" 😂 so sad.

Ha ha joe Rogan is a punk waste of time listening his bs

The money workers received during the pandemic was not a gift or welfare. It was COMPENSATION FOR LOSSES suffered as a result of government-ordered shutdowns that FORCIBLY left them unemployed. Rich people also received compensation ($366 billion) as did businesses. The purpose of the shut down was to save lives---including those of rich people. The supply chain woes were created by greedy, foolish corporations that offshored critical production to China and other remote countries, leaving the US helplessly dependent on the ability of other countries to keep factories and shipping facilities operating.

CEOs During the Pandemic: "For each DAY this job isn't filled I lose $20,000!" CEOs After the Pandemic: "Oh, that lame job? Best I can do is $12/hour." Dr.Phil and Joe: "WHY DOES NO ONE WANT TO WORK?"

This just supports my theory that rich people in fact don't know how the economy works. Perhaps they gaslight themselves so hard, or obscure it so hard, that they forget that the only thing that makes the world go round (currently) is people spending money and physical labour producing stuff. During lockdown, if people hadn't spent money the air would've gone out of the balloon.

Rogan, the concept behind UBI is that if you give people food and shelter, they will have food and shelter. Not that they’ll “pursue their dreams” or whatever.

I literally *didn’t* go into academia because it didn’t want to compete. Compete with other post grads, compete with other researchers, compete for funding. You don’t have to compete working for a company you just show up and do your job and get paid. Academia is so much less guaranteed.

Phil was just on David Pakman’s show the other day (guessing you know that Sam) and Phil pretended he was non-partisan. So in other words, he gaslights during interviews. Keep that in mind in case you manage to book an interview with him.

The 2nd thing that pisses me off is "they paid them more money than they made working." First of all, no they didn't. Second of all, if they did, perhaps one should consider what that says about the capitalist system, hmmm?

Supply-chain problems were also partially caused by things like "just in time" manufacturing and companies running lean on repair parts, because they were used to being able to get things with little lag time; so, when problems did arise, they had more extreme, longer-lasting, and farther-reaching consequences in the global economy.

These idiots have no clue how incredibly competitive and challenging it is to get a job as a professor, and how hard-working and competent most professors are.

Dr. Phil probably paid more for that stupid jacket than the bottom quintile makes in a year

The meritlessness of Dr. Phil is extreme.
