00:00you know I actually don't mind this idea kind of like it y'all let me know in
00:07the comments what you think about it good bad indifferent let me know that's
00:15actually something Jeff Bezos brought up to me it's kind of absurd that we're
00:21doing this he said the bottom 50% the people that make the least amount of
00:25money don't tax them at all the top 1% of taxpayers pay 40% of all the tax
00:29revenue the bottom half pay only 3% I think it should be zero I don't think
00:34it should be 3% because because they're not contributing that much to the tax
00:37base anyway and they would contribute more to the economy if it had more money
00:40absolutely it would help everybody a nurse in Queens who makes $75,000 a year
00:46pays more than $12,000 a year in taxes I think he's right we shouldn't be asking
00:51this nurse in Queens to send money to Washington they should be sending her an
00:57apology it really makes no sense the question is should you be paying higher
01:03taxes to pay for the 3% we don't have a revenue problem we actually have a
01:09spending problem the New York City school system they spend $44,000 per student
01:16that's 30% more per student than other big cities like Chicago LA and Boston and it's
01:23three times more than Miami and Houston I always said $150,000 down yeah you don't pay tax
