that's some fucked up tradition

Ow. I assumed it was the other way round. Lol. Everything they were hissing at I thought where obvious truths.

What the hell is that tradition? It's so annoying and disrespectful.

How stupid are people in college these days? I hear helicopters coming...

Ironically they are the dumbest around. They only know what they memorized from their textbooks. Those idiots will realize Peter is right when they're faced with reality of the business world.

Brandon Willis and the funny thing about facts is they are still true even if you disagree with them.

That is not it's purpose. It is the equivalent of disliking a video but slightly more obnoxious. I think it might be a way for people to express their disapproval in a way that is perhaps better than shouting out or chanting during the speech.

It's considered less triggering than applause/boo's. Don't you remember the uproar about feminist clapping? (audience clapping too loudly for things speaker's didn't agree with apparently was triggering certain speakers.) But in all seriousness, apparently this is the system of approval/disapproval this "political union" encourages. Hisses for disagreement, pounding your hand down on the table for agreement. Seems a bit weird to me, but too each their own i guesssss

J Y lol I understand the reference!

Facts don't care about your hissing

I noticed the hissing early on, I just thought ppl were opening soda cans 😂 cos there were so many

Harrison Angus - "how about $17.50?" Lol...

Adrian FC82 wait, what? They're apart a that whole "Yale thing". "Yale thing?" "Yeah, Yale thing" "What Yale thing?" See Bateman et al. Hahahaha hissssssss ya bitches

That wont solve poverty, it will just create a privelaged group who can divorvce themselves of any resposnibilities while the poor suffer and die. This was tried for a thousand years in Europe. Learn from history or be doomed to repeat it's failures.

MatraEtAlpine - Public education has failed you.

Actually public education has served me exceptionally well and had the opportunity to share the views with many politicians and business leaders. One of the most practical being Bill Hewlett who had a clear ethos along with Dave Packard for the company to suceed for customers, protit AND look after employees and communities. Read up about them in their book and about the small company they started in a agarage and became a world leader and business trail blazer.

MatraEtAlpine They had central banking in Europe for a thousand years?

What do you think funded the Greek empire ? The Syrian Empires ? The Roman ? There was always fiscal policy underlying it all ! Crude but present. Then of course we get on to the great banking institutions of the renaissance and do you not study the great Italian houses and the fiduciary controls they exerted ? Am guessing not as you asked the asinine question :(

They'll relate to his speech once they get outta there and kind find a decent job, but are 80K in debt. The reality will slap them in the face.

@KyleF You don't know how LITERALLY accurate you are gentleman...

Kyle F No violent protests but at least he can say he got hissed at by demons

Common sense doesn't exist in a positive sense.

“Common sense” is just a lazy buzzword that dumb people use. “Common sense” just means “agreeing with my bad opinions that I couldn’t back up if I tried”

@@bryndenrivers9001 seems you don't have any common sense ya?

Apply that logic to taxation and the upper 10% in any nation can EASILY "afford to pay" for the provision of a better society.

MatraEtAlpine - Wrong. They don't have enough money for the rest of us 7 billion.

AH you are looking at the WORLD, Well that is different. You cant have a system which will work over such a disparate range of society, education and natural resources. We woudl ahve to work together to raise the standards in the other nations. As the League of Nations wished to do.

So just focus onthe USA and do the math please ? Remember that it is NOT "handouts" but it is "leverage" when you provide capital and funding to improve their living standards, their health, their education and their security.

MatraEtAlpine - Nothing has done more to lift humanity out of poverty than the market economy. fee.org/articles/capitalism-is-good-for-the-poor/

TheDoltonboy this is gold

people criticize form when they can’t engage content

And who decides what wage McDonald's can bear i wonder... Are you really 100% sure it is always 'the market'? Or is it ever the shareholders and their profit margin?

@@michaelbrent6099 LOL learn more, post less

An SJW filter would be a great invention.

Yes, mic the speaker. Also eliminates echo and annoying people talking the whole time in the audience.

Bill Hewlet and Dave Packard did exactly that. Go read their seven tenets of business. Problem is now many are driven to start a business and then IPO it and live off the vast capital it generated. NOT a viable market method in long term and for greater benefit.

Paul Lindholm just because they came from a Ivy League school such as yale, they are probably guaranteed a job no matter their degree unfortunately......

Stephen .Shuman while they do have a very easy chance of getting their foot in the door, a degree won't make an ivy league climb our capitalist society any easier. Money flows to those who add value, and it seems like many of these people in the audience don't know that.

Lol. In many European countries, it is. Finland is a good example: a large middle class was created between the end of World War II and the 1980s. It was a period of rising taxation and government expenditure, constant collective bargaining for wages, periodic price controls, massive state intervention in banking and finance, active industrial policy (i.e. "government picking the winners") and the beginning of modern Finnish welfare state.

@@karlmarxthebolshevikrabbi2536 Finland built a middle class through extremely deregulated product markets. Their growth happened DESPITE government intervention in other parts of their economy, not because of it. It was the free market capitalism that was let fully unleashed in the product market to give them growth. Ever since their recession in 1990 and the peak of their welfare state and high taxes, their overall unemployment rate is constantly around 8.4% and over 20% for youths due to they way their society is structured now... The only thing saving them is that they happen to have a large pool of highly skilled workforce

As a Finn, I can tell you that you have it backwards. High unemployment in the 1990s was a product of financial deregulation and "sound money" policies of the late 1980s. Today, the main problem is that since we joined the euro, we have not had an ability to adjust the exchange rate to promote competitiveness of exports. The welfare state policies that were implemented during the Cold War spearheaded the rise of middle class: egalitarian school system provided an access to high-quality education for everyone, public healthcare made sure that all people had equal access to healthcare, unions made sure that productivity increases led to rising wages, progressive taxation redistributed income from the rich to the poor, etc. Also, I'd like to see the source for the claim that Finland had an "extremely deregulated" product market. I have studied Finnish economic history quite a lot, and I have never heard anyone make such a case.

@@karlmarxthebolshevikrabbi2536 economists attribute much growth to reforms in the product market being very free and less regulated, despite having an inflexible job market and heavy tax burden. I can tell you even in the united states we built a strong middle class after world war 2 much stronger than in Finland and we had no social programs but because of more regulation, moving away from the gold standard, rising inflation/devaluing of the dollar faster than wages can rise by the Fed the middle class is shrinking here. And since every other currency depends on the dollar y’all are fucked too

@@florianruhstaller1730 You didn't cite any source for the claim that Finland had "extremely deregulated" product markets so I repeat my request. When it comes to the US after WWII, are you kidding me? The US did have a highly regulated financial system (Glass Steagal act, interest rate ceilings, capital controls, etc.), and the unions were much stronger. In addition, government subsidized education programs, like the GI Bill, provided increased opportunities for people with less wealthy backrounds, and tax progressivity was much higher than it is today. Government did invest heavily in infrastructure (interstate highways for example), and high-tech industries like computers and space programs. These developments contributed made income distribution more even, and strenghtened the middle class.

Truth Their Economics department doesnt have as many retards. They are also their own category of Economics, entirely empirical in nature. Also it would be U of C as UIC (University of llinois in Chicago) is a different school

They're literally throwing a hissy-fit.

Jordan Eley Best comment!

John Smith well said my friend!

liberals

Yep I'm with ya.

Racking prints coming off a printing press so the ink could dry.

What's wrong with that. No big deal to start working early in life. You learn from it.

Too true

FAR too simnplistic. You dont HAVE to "offer lower wages", if you are still profitable you can maintain wages and then that moeny circulates more qidely in the economy and assists others to imrpove their capital and services too.

You're entire statement makes me question if you understand how businesses work. Most if not all businesses have to start off at a point where they offer lower wages then they would at a later time if that business does happen to become prosperous. However if all businesses are forced to pay artificially high wages right from the start that either diminishes their chances of ever reaching a point where they can pay higher wages or create more jobs or it completely kills the ability for people to create more jobs and businesses that would circulate money and improve capital and services better than artificially created "improvements".

They do not "HAVE TO". Please go read "The HP Way" :) You know one "benefit" of higher wages ? It puts more money INTO an economy which then strengthens an economy. If ytou have a company which chosess NOT to and instead puts the money in the hands of the CEO et al then they Put it off shore , put it into money making hedge schemes etc, which do nothign for the actual health of the economy other than make a few headline numbers look good. The nbanking collaspe taught many the folly of tyhat and why you see more US executives looking for better balance and giving away vast sums. One CEO will buy himself a fridge. A 100 employees with dispoable income will upgrade 100 fridges and thus strengthening the manufacture and servicing insutries. I suspect you only look at financial industry when you consider "economy" :( I think some study of gaming theory and how it relates to economies woudl assist here. There is limited WIN oportunties and many win-win.

You cant even spell properly. I know you dont know what youre talking about. You know what? Define a high wage. Give me a number that would be high enough, that would satisfy you.

I CAN spell , however I suffer from an neurological issue in my lower arms and fingers such that the signals dont fire the fingers properly and you will see mistypos. SOrry about that. However , it is widely recognised that intelligent people can read with massive errors in character order :)

WHile those at the top are willing to share equaity. Since Reaganomics the "make as much as I can " has created vast disparity in wage between CEO and eomplyee that is untenable and will be the downfall of "free capitalism". I urge again a little study of the last 500 years of world economies :)

MatraEtAlpine - Blame big government (public education system, excessive regulation, excessive taxation, excessive spending) and Federal Reserve for hoarding off-shore, outsourcing, corporate inversions and the problems of American workers; not innovation, not technology, not immigration, not globalization, not foreign currency manipulation, not foreign subsidies, not journalists, not the media, not the rich, not statues and monuments, not capitalism.

MatraEtAlpine CEO is an employee is payed by shareholders. Don't like how much the CEO is payed? Sell the stock, or buy the majority of the shares and fire the guy. It's that simple.

You are right for a PUBLICLY LISTED company :( Wrong for the millions of other family owned and privatre equity comapnies. Let's see how well has the stock holders complaints over CEO pay had an effect in the last 50 years ? little :( The GOOD CEOs and the good companies do, but they seldom neeed to act as they dont let the inequity to start with. CEO is not "Paid by shreholders", they are paid by the business. Shareholders have little say in larger organisations unless they are the large fund holders and in that case "comaprative salary survery" measn they WANT CEOs pay to be higher so their pay can be higher. A perfect example of a privel;age which is abused and many arent aware of.
