FIELD THE NUMBER OF DEMOCRATS

WHO HAVE ANNOUNCED THEY ARE

GOING TO MAKE THE RUNNING FOR

THE WHITE HOUSE.

BEFORE WE HAVE THE DOZEN OR SO

NOW AND MAYBE A DOZEN OR TWO

DOZEN MORE CAN DO DURING A

PRESIDENTIAL RUN OF THEIR RUN,

THERE WAS THIS GUY, THE 2020

PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE,

ENTREPRENEUR, SOME SUCCESS IN

THE BUSINESS WORLD, WHICH COMES

AT A TIME.

VERY GOOD TO HAVE YOU.

WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?

>> I SPENT THE LAST SEVEN YEARS

CREATING SEVERAL THOUSAND JOBS

IN NEW ORLEANS AND OTHER IN

THEIR I.C.E. ARE THE AFTERMATH

OF THE DEVASTATION IN

MANUFACTURING JOBS.

THE REASON I DONALD TRUMP ONE

AND 2016 IS THAT WHICH AUTOMATED

400 MILLION MANUFACTURING JOBS

IN MICHIGAN, OHIO, PENNSYLVANIA,

WISCONSIN AND NOW MY FRIENDS IN

SILICON VALLEY KNOW WERE ABOUT

TO DO THE SAME THING TO MILLIONS

OF RETAIL JOBS, CALL CENTER

JOBS, FAST FOOD JOBS IN TRUCK

DRIVING JOBS HERE THAT'S WHY HE

DECIDED TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT TO

HELP US MANAGE THIS TRANSITION

WE ARE IN THE MIDST OF.

NEIL: YOUR WEALTH COMES FROM

TELLING --

[INAUDIBLE]

THAT'S WHERE A LOT OF IT IS.

YOU'RE NOT A BILLIONAIRE, BUT

YOU'RE UP THERE APPEARS TO MAC

THAT'S VERY.

DEFINITELY NOT A BILLIONAIRE.

I'VE HAD SOME SUCCESS AND

CERTAINLY I'VE LOOKED AROUND AND

BEING THIS COUNTRY NEEDS PEOPLE

LIKE ME TO STEP OUT.

NEIL: ALL RIGHT, YOU ARE

ADVOCATING AND THIS IS AMONG

MANY WHO ARE COMPETING FOR THE

DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION FOR THE

UNIVERSAL INCOME.

THE CHEW EXTENDED TO PRETTY MUCH

EVERYBODY.

HAVE AT IT.

>> THAT'S RIGHT.

IF YOU LOOK AT THE HISTORY OF

THIS IDEA, DEEPLY AMERICAN.

WHERE THOMAS PAINE WAS FOR.

MARTIN LUTHER KING WAS FOR IT.

MILTON FRIEDMAN, WITH BEATING

CONSERVATIVE ECONOMIST.

IT PASSED THE HOUSE OF

REPRESENTATIVES TWICE UNDER

RICHARD NIXON AND IT WAS

IMPLEMENTED 11 YEARS LATER IN

ONE STAYED WHERE FERGUSON IN

$1,002,000 A YEAR.

THAT'S A DEEPLY REPUBLICAN STATE

PASSED BY REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR

WHO ASKED THE ALASKAN PEOPLE WHO

WOULD YOU RATHER GET THE OIL

MONEY THE GOVERNMENT ARE YOU?

NEIL: WHO WOULD FUND THIS?

I WOULD YOU PAY FOR THIS?

>> IF YOU LOOK AROUND YOU CAN

SEE THE HEADLINES AMAZON PAID NO

TAXES LAST YEAR DESPITE RECORD

PROFITS.

WE HAVE TO PUT THE AMERICAN

PEOPLE IN POSITION TO START

HARVESTING THE GAINS FROM

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, SELL

GERMAN CARS AND TRUCKS AND

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY.

AND WITH THAT MONEY WE CAN FUND

THE DIVIDEND FOR ALL AMERICANS.

NEIL: I KNOW YOU'VE GOT THE

ATTENTION AMONG PEOPLE WHO LIKE

THAT IDEA, BUT HAVE YOU PAY FOR

IT?

THAT WOULD BE OVER $2 TRILLION A

YEAR.

HE WENT THE PRICE TAG COMES DOWN

VERY QUICKLY BECAUSE WERE

ALREADY SPENDING HUNDREDS OF

BILLIONS OF DOLLARS ON 126 AND

15 WELFARE PROGRAMS WHICH SHOULD

BE LARGELY CONSOLIDATED.

A LOT OF THAT WOULD GET REPLACED

BY THE DIVIDENDS BECAUSE PEOPLE

WOULD VASTLY PREFER THOUSAND

DOLLARS IN CASH AND CONDITIONAL

TO THE HODGEPODGE OF BENEFITS OF

THE ADMINISTRATION MONITORING

THEY CURRENTLY EXPERIENCE.

NEIL: BUT TO GUYS LIKE YOU

REALLY NEED TO MONEY YOURSELF?

>> AT THE RIGHT OF CITIZENSHIP

AND THAT MEANS IT'S NOT

STIGMATIZE TRANSFER FROM RICH TO

POOR.

THE GREAT THING IS WE CAN BUILD

A TRICKLE UP ECONOMY FROM PEOPLE

AND FAMILIES BECAUSE MOST OF US

WOULD GO RIGHT BACK INTO THE

ECONOMY THROUGH MAIN STREET

BUSINESSES AROUND THE COUNTRY.

NEIL: RIGHT NOW THERE IS AN

ATTITUDE ON THE PREDOMINANT

LEFT-WING OF THE PARTY WHICH A

LOT OF PEOPLE SAY IS THE PARTY

RIGHT NOW, THAT THAT QUESTION

AND EVEN GUYS LIKE YOURSELF WHO

SUCCEED ON YOUR OWN INTO A GREAT

DOG, ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ

SORT OF SEEMS TO BE THE

SPOKESMAN FOR THAT MOVEMENT HAS

SAID THAT EVERY ALIEN THERE IS A

POLICY MISTAKE HERE AND WHAT DID

YOU MAKE OF IT?

>> YOU'VE GOT TO LOOK AT THE BIG

PICTURE OR THE THIRD INNING OF

THE GREATEST ECONOMIC AND

TECHNOLOGICAL TRANSFORMATION IN

HISTORY.

WILLIAM AYERS OR OF A NATIONAL

BYPRODUCT.

NEIL: YOU AGREE WITH WHAT

THEY'RE SAYING.

BILLIONAIRES CREATED A LOT OF

JOBS AND A LOT OF OPPORTUNITIES.

>> I THINK THERE ARE WAYS THAT

WE CAN MORE EFFECTIVELY HAVE THE

AMERICAN PEOPLE BENEFIT FROM

SOME OF THE HUGE WINNINGS THAT

PEOPLE HAVE EXPERIENCED DURING

THE ECONOMY.

NEIL: THESE GUYS HAVE CREATED A

GAZILLION DOLLAR ENTERPRISES

ACROSS THE COUNTRY.

>> AND I AM IN THE CAMP AS YOU

SUGGEST THAT OUR SYSTEM CREATES

VERY, VERY WEALTHY PEOPLE WHO

HAVE BEEN FORTUNATE, BUT THEY'VE

DONE A LOT OF VALUE CREATION.

NEIL: WOULD YOU RAISE THEIR

TAXES?

>> TO BE THE FOCUS ON INCOME TAX

IS NOT THE RIGHT WAY TO GO.

20 OF JEFF BEZOS IS AN EXAMPLE.

JUST STARTED AMAZON.

HE HAS OVER $100 BILLION IN

AMAZON STOCK.

HASN'T SOLD ANY.

SO THERE'S NO TAXABLE EVENT.

SO I THINK A WEALTH TAX IS NOT

THE RIGHT WAY TO GO.

WE HAVE TO JOIN EVERY ADVANCE

COMPANY AND HOW A VALUE-ADDED

TAX IS MUCH, MUCH HARDER FOR BIG

MULTINATIONAL COMPANIES TO

WRIGGLE THEIR WAY OUT OF INK IN

THEIR WAY OUT OF.

NEIL: MANY HAVE SUCH ATTACKS.

>> BUT YOU DO SEE THAT THEY WERE

ABLE TO HARNESS MORE OF THE BIG

WINNERS IN TERMS OF THE

CORPORATE COMPANIES THAT ARE

GENERATING LOTS OF PROFITS.

THEY WERE ABLE TO GET THE TAX

REVENUE.

NEIL: 10% OF ITALIAN CITIZENS

PAY TAXES EVEN THE HIGH

VALUE-ADDED TAXATION.

THIS IS THE ONLY THING I KNOW

IT'S AN ITALIAN-AMERICAN.

YOU ARE A GOOD INTENTIONS ARE

GOING TO MANUAL STICK AMERICANS

WITH A GOOD-SIZED BILL?

>> WE ARE TRYING TO CREATE A

DIVIDEND FOR ADULTS WHERE EVERY

AMERICAN CITIZEN IS THE OWNER

AND SHAREHOLDER OF THE RICHEST

AND MOST ADVANCED ECONOMY IN THE

HISTORY OF THE WORLD.

WE CAN EASILY AFFORD $1000

DIVIDEND THAT WILL GO RIGHT BACK

INTO THE ECONOMY AND CREATE

2 MILLION JOBS AROUND THE

COUNTRY AND GROW THE CONSUMER

ECONOMY BY 8% TO 10%.

NEIL: YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT THIS

CHANCE TO DEAL WITH TRUCKERS AND

MANUFACTURING WORKERS.

RIGHT NOW WE ARE AT RECORD LOW

UNEMPLOYMENT.

KEY GROUPS ARE LUCKY NOT THE

HIGHEST EMPLOYMENT LEVELS WE

HAVE EVER SEEN.

SO A LOT OF PEOPLE STEP BACK AND

SAY ANDREW IS JUST MISSING THIS

BIG PICTURE IS SO TERRIFIC IT

WOULD SHOW UP IN THE NUMBERS.

>> WELCOME IF YOU LOOK AT OUR

LABOR FORCE PARTICIPATION RATE,

IT'S STILL AROUND 63%, WHICH IS

CLOSE TO A MULTI-DECADE LOW THE

SAME AS EL SALVADOR AND THE

DOMINICAN REPUBLIC.

NEIL: A LOT OF REPUBLICANS WILL

COUNTER THAT IF YOU WERE TO COME

THE PARTY'S NOMINEE AND THEY'VE

BEEN THERE, DONE A LOT BETTER

THAN THAT.

>> TAKE A LOOK AT THE CURVE AND

IT PEAKS AROUND 2009 AT HEARTS

CRASHING SHORTLY THEREAFTER.

IF YOU LOOK AT STATISTICS, ONE

IN FIVE PRIME WORKING AGE

AMERICAN MENACE OUT OF THE

WORKFORCE RIGHT NOW AND THIS IS

YOUR EXPANSION.
