hey everybody I'm going through my old debate footage and I'm going to give you some commentary things I could have done better and points that I want to elaborate on this is going to be a series we hope you enjoy if you have a cure to diabetes yeah wouldn't you want to sell that cure in the marketplace I would want to distribute it to everyone so first this is at Ohio State University by the way Oregon's going to beat them in the fall for free but that's why I'm in the fields because I would can you name one example of one thing that's ever been given out for free by the government can I pause just to show the movement that we built on these campuses that's how many people used to show up to debate me it was just one person now it's hundreds of people you almost thousands of people just kind of fun because there's nothing that's free he paid for by somebody at some point at some level of distribution okay I mean how about Jeff Bezos who has like $50 billion or something afford to pay he has over $100 billion now for that how did Jeff Bezos get his money by exploiting his laborers and not paying them enough if he's exploiting them why do they work for him because they don't have another opportunity there's more job openings available America than actually people we have to fill the jobs There's 7 million job openings people at Amazon say they love their jobs their wages are going up they get they get health care they get health insurance they get promoted average aage H can you really in in good faith say that that's a a good job that people like have you ever used Amazon no I actually no I don't buy from them you use Starbucks okay so Starbucks that's a billionaire you know how rich Howard Schultz is he's worth5 billion so you're participating as in his exploitation Starbucks has better working conditions for their employees though well how do you know that because they have like a $15 minimum wage wait so Starbucks Starbucks billionaire good Amazon billionaire back just so we're true just so we I would not like either of them to be billionaire then why are you buying Starbucks you're you're participating in the market economy well it's impossible you see it's very easy to benefit from the market economy but when you start to actually pinpoint it here she is with her very bougie American lifestyle picking apart Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos which I'm not big fan of by the way this is a couple years ago but she's sipping on her Starbucks it is Peak American economic privilege let's continue to buy things without participating in the market you could have you could have went to a farmers market you could have bought something outside she wants the ease of free market capitalism at the same time critiquing the very system that she is benefiting from let's continue Farmers Market here there's no there's no local coffee first of all there are farmers markets in Columbus Ohio in Columbus at all there no nonillionaire coffee distributors no and I think could got aage you could have gotten local huh you could have Becky Donuts they don't they don't serve Starbucks Coffee the point is it's very easy to critique billionaires all you swish your Starbucks La latte back and forth made possible by a guy that wanted to become a billionaire why because of a profit mot this was made this is very important is that the drive to have a lot of money is one of the reasons why we have such incredible products and services and valuable companies you get rid of the profit motive and the in s of structure why would anybody start a company possible by the workers who made it not by got it so she's not totally wrong here workers do play a necessary role but workers alone are not the ones that are invested in taking the risk so the company can exist in the first place this is on display here you have a free market capitalist argument that I'm espousing and you have a Marxist labor Theory now without labor obviously I'm very sympathetic to labor I think it's important that the working men and this women in this country have good representation and fair wages but without Capital deployment which is why it's called capitalism which used to be a slur by the way Adam Smith came up with came up that Ed it as a slur actually he didn't come up he came up with free market ideas capitalism actually came later it was a Marxist idea however the allocation of capital and the tension against labor without somebody signing on the dotted line saying I am now at risk if the company goes bankrupt why would starbu even be created in the first place it's actually made possible by you the consumer the workers wouldn't have a job if you didn't buy their product and guess what it took Howard schs to risk everything take out two mortgages on his house to start Starbucks in Seattle on a total idea when people thought he was nuts and crazy so that you can sip your latte and tell me how much you hate capitalism I actually never said that you said that you said the workers should own the means of production and you said that you want government to Run Healthcare so I I didn't say that either although I do believe that the or should own the you believe you basically said that labor needs to have a voice she's using Marxist elements here I did an okay job summarizing it so that was from Ohio State University a couple years ago and by the way it's just very interesting we don't really have these economic debates anymore when I visit campuses it's all about other topics that I can't even mention here on YouTube right Ryan I can't mention on YouTube other topics by the way just so you guys know here on YouTube some of my best content is not even allowed to be posted on YouTube because of things so uh yeah that was my debate at Ohio State University how do you think I did give me a rating
