And so the drug companies are the biggest donors in the country.

so they just totally bought our entire congress they said our five-year patents are now 12-year patents for a lot of these drugs so now we have a monopoly for seven extra years where we'll rob you blind of course not you as the politicians we're bribing you so you help us rob the taxpayers and then on top of that nego the government medicare etc cannot negotiate drug prices whatever we tell you you must pay that's an insane system that is corruption

on steroids and that really happens with almost every industry our government doesn't represent us at all not one percent it completely represents the donor class it's a giant robbery and and i can't stand it

I mean, look, this is why I love your show, because you're saying it as it is.

And you're 100 percent right.

You've got it, in my opinion.

Look, I've we've been saying this for 20 years on the Young Turks.

The Democrats are paid to lose.

So this is the Harlem Globetrotters versus the Washington generals.

And so the same guy is paying both of them.

And if you were setting up a system where you wanted to capture our government, you wouldn't just pay one side, you'd pay both sides.

And you'd pay one side to be super strong and push through extreme policies that help you.

And you'd pay the other side to pretend to fight them and then go, there was nothing we could do.

There was nothing we could do.

That's like the favorite Democratic leadership song.

They all sing it in unison in the caucus.

And so there, and we've pointed out for 20 straight years on the Young Turks, and we're like kind of a little bit known for our predictions.

And the reason I do predictions is because it's so obvious.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist

Look at where the money is.
