Bill De Blasio Leaves Race, Shares What He Learned On Trail | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Now onto his next vanity project, one presumes. One thing these rich people never seem to have much of is common sense.
Funny how he is starting to sound like Andrew Yang
@Matthew Dolman De Blasio ended the segment with his opposition to UBI. Otherwise, how is he starting to sound like Andrew Yang?
@KANUCKLE HEAD talking about the dangers of automation and needing to tax big tech
The way he talks faster and smooth is like Yang too
If we do nothing about taxing AI robot workers, lots of people will.be cast aside. This is not good for the people.
de Blasio fits right in on Morning Joe. Comes on to bash the Dems, so they welcome him with open arms. The GOP are the ones who have undermined unions, and done nothing to help displaced workers, and on top of that, want to take away any access they might have to affordable healthcare. Where affordable means premiums will fit within a budget of $30K a year.
“lower your expectations” Obama created the 30 hour X 2 work week, and the Corporate obamacare penalty is still a burden on the very businesses who employ….poor people. Trump has more people working in general, and more minorities than ever. “done nothing to help displaced workers”. Really?
And about those unions – $50 to $70 per hour (including fringes) is almost as much as AOC makes. Orange man bad. Yeah.
@I P You’re right, Obama care forced millions ,like me to pay over $3800.00 each year for something I did not want. But they don’t care what it cost anyone else as long as they get it free.And Unions would not exist if not for sucking on government projects where they can charge what they want, drag out the jobs forever and answer to no one.
@mark price I come from the land of Boeing, where that NEVER happened.
Hey Bill, you just ignored Andrew Yang’s policy on automation. WTF
AND DE BLASIO GETS THROWN OVER THE TOP AND HE’S OUT OF THE ROYAL RUMBLE!!!
Hi Bubbliness. Go do an act of kindness and stop yelling in our sand box.
Or learn to type?
Andrew Yang should be the next president because even the other nominees are looking to him. We need someone prepared for the future of humanity who better than Yang.
Russian trolls are out in full force on this one.
@Dan Graham
Yep, they are doing their very best to sow negative energy and divide us, like demons.
He drops out just in time to make it to the Nevada Area 51 search for aliens.
Working people are important. Pay them for their work.and what they deserve.
de Blasio doesn’t care about other people. The hood needs to catch up with him when he gets back to New York.
He never had a chance
Love Bill. Lots of people hate on him. He’s a good voice for the Progressive movement. 🤷♂️
VAT the robots and pay the people. #YangGang
It sounds like he’s talking about Andrew Yang. Who is talking about all this stuff.
They wants jobs and UBI!
Me Bill why you just joint the YANG GANG
Bill you are proposing Yang’s ideas. You’re clearly on the Yang Gang!
A robot tax is so dumb. We want more automation, not less. We want Andrew Yang’s Freedom Dividend. Universal Basic Income (UBI) is the way to go. A robot tax would put the U.S. at a disadvantage to other countries.
I guess Bill couldn’t even give a nod to Andrew Yang for already having the policy dealing with the automation issue as a core plank in his campaign . Maybe because it’s forbidden to mention Yang on this program.
Bill de Blasio is back in the big apple as mayor of New York.
