Because this smaller government the less the corruption and the smaller the government the more individual freedom and personal responsibility and giving those things along with hard work and talent you can accomplish your life Pools so back to my question why would you support policies that keep expanding the power of the government when they are the very policies that doom your home countries use it because you think that when Democrats Offer you free stuff it means they really care about you do you think that when Republicans talk about enforcing immigration laws it means they're going to seeing you back let's be honest you didn't come here for free stuff You okay for the economic opportunity that allows you to work and earn an of course a nation has an obligation to enforce its borders certainly every country in Central and South America does in fact much more So then they us perhaps you believe that your home country sport not because of failed socialism and grew up big government but because officials unrelated to ideology not enough natural resources and grill listen and someone or were There's you believe that the us has got than rich on the backs of four Nations but this nurse gifts are fulls there are many Nations mess with abundant natural resources that are port and therefore overwhelming the because of Rub governments and policies that destroy incentives to produce look at Venezuela which has best oil and mineral reserves but has shortages of every basic necessity why because of socialist policies because of Those same deceiving politicians who promise to fight for the people and give you free stuff on your going to fall for this lies again in your adopted country do you think by electing politicians who will fight for the people Old fight for social Justice and raise taxes on the one percent who are exploiting the world of the 99 percent that you will get ahead in other words will you support the same policies Vote for the same types of fun additions here who make such as my home the United States became wealthy because it's government state out of the way of its citizens than more power you give to the government the less How are you have to control your life prosperity and opportunity diminish as government growth so why did you like so many of my fellow water mullins come to the less because your society was broken huge Goes to make a new life in the United States you could have gone to another left in American country with a similar culture and the same language as your home country but you didn't because United States is different please help keep it that way Hey I'm laura albert author of the puppies deception for prager University every year men spend billions of dollars to look at women with little clothing on such as the annual sports illustrated swimsuit Shoe and with no clothing on such as on Internet sites and and so called men's magazines women on the other hand spend virtually nothing to see on clothes men why Some say that the reason is that men are socialized interviewing women as sex objects and that women are socialized into not viewing men as sex objects but if that's true how these people explain game in They are is around by pictures of naked men as heterosexual men aroused by pictures of naked women obviously then it's not social as Asian it's that men are programmed by nature no By society to respond sexually to the visual this is an area in which men are show different from women that it's probably impossible now not probably just out right impossible For a woman to truly understand of course women find some men attractive and of course a woman can have an intense reaction to seeing a very appealing man but there's still no comparison of the visual Alone around his men it takes far more to arouse a woman and seeing making men if that's all it took most husbands would walk around the House naked whenever possible or at least every time they wanted sex and the average For sexual man is excited countless times a day simply by seeing women in person on billboards and magazines on television and even in imagination this is not the case for women yes there are some Strip shows for women but few women ever go and a few who do attend them in groups a girls night out and for every one of those shows they are probably 10000 female Strip shows for males Most of whom attend alone not as a participant in a guys night out let's be honest there is no magazine featuring men's legs for women to look at and get aroused by but there are websites and magazine As of women's legs for men and women paying to view topless men men pay good money to look at topless woman again that doesn't mean women never get turned on by merely looking at some men of course they do But it's only some men on rare occasion a stranger and more usually a celebrity men get turned on by any sign of female flash and almost any female the effect of the visual and men is show power Coffee that it even amazes men a man came over to me after hearing the lecture email sexuality and said I got a story to tell you I was in front of a Department store in the window was the scene of mannequin I couldn't believe it When I found myself looking up her skirt here was a perfectly normal responsible man who found himself looking up a skirt on and in animate object shape like a woman that's how instinctive it is For men to look at female flash it's perfectly understandable that women cannot fully relate to this but if a woman wants to understand male sexuality the first thing she has to understand is the Power of the visual that's why you see ads on billboards on Tv and in magazines for every sort of product a man might buy a company by a scantily clad woman or sometimes just part of her I recall the famous look around that show the woman's legs and a bottle of tequila no face just beautiful legs would you ever see an ad showing men's legs people would laugh we would be Considered absurd ahead with women's legs is not absurd it's alluring none of this is in any way meant to excuse inappropriate male behavior men must all Always control themselves but to deny the power of the visual on men is like denying that the Earth is round I'm dennis prager I wanna tell you about an essential vitamin you've probably never heard of if you're a parent of plan to be one it might be more important to your child's growth and all other vitamins combined and only you a parent can provide Added I call it vitamin in the word no more and more children I find or suffering from vitamin and deficiency and they are parents on our entire culture of paying the price Let me illustrate my point with the story that's quite typical a father or calling bill gave his son age five pretty much everything the little boy asked for like most parents bill wanted more than anything for his son to be Happy but he wasn't instead he was petulant moody and often solemn he was also having problems getting along with other children in addition he was very demanding and rarely if ever expressed any appreciation lunch Long gratitude for all the things bill and his wife were giving him was his son depressed bill wanted to know did he need therapy his son I told him was suffering the predictable ill effects of being over indulge What he needed was a healthy and steady dose vitamin and over indulgence a deficiency of vitamin then leads to its own form of addiction when the point of diminishing returns as pass House and its past for early early on the receiving of things begins to generate nothing but want for more things one terrible effective this is let our children in becoming a custom to a materials standard that's Out of kilter with what they can ever hope to achieve as adults consider also that many if not most children attain this level of affluence not by working sacrificing your doing their best but by whining Landing in manipulating so in the process of inflating their material expectations we also teach children that something can be had for next to nothing not only is that a false hood it's also one The most dangerous destructive attitudes a person can acquire this may go a long way toward explaining why the mental health of children in the 19 fifties when kids got a lot less was significantly better than the mental health Today's kids since the fifties and especially in the last few decades as indulgence has become the parenting norm the rates of child in pain depression have skyrocketed children who grow believe Being in this something for nothing retail are likely to become emotionally stunted self centered adults than when they themselves become parents they're likely to over those their children With material things the piles of toys plush easing gadgets one find scattered around most households in that way over indulgence and deficiency of vitamin and becomes an inherited disease and addiction pass Ask from one generation to the next is also explains why children who get too much of what they want rarely take proper care of anything they have why should they after all Experience tells them that more is always on the way children deserve better they deserve to have parents attend to their needs for protection affection and direction be And that they deserve hear their parents say no farm more often than yes when it comes to their whimsical desires they deserve to learn the value of constructive creative effort as opposed to the value of effort expended Dining lying on the floor kicking and screaming are playing one parent against the other they deserve to learn that work is the only truly fulfilling way of getting anything of value in life and the harder they work the more intimately for Filling the outcome in the process of trying to protect children from frustration parents have turned reality upside down a child raised in this topsy-turvy fashion may not have the skills needed to stand And on his or her own two feet when the time comes to do so here's a simple rule turn your children's world right side up by giving them all what they truly need but no more than 25 Percent of what they simply want I call this the principle of nine deprivation when all is said and done the most character building two letter word in the English language is no but him and then just Answered frequently you'll be happier in the long run and so will your child I'm John rosamond author and family psychologist for prager University high I'm Maria bright ceo of Here you did you know that trigger using non profit every dollar you give will go towards making more videos and marketing them so please consider making a donation today I'm do you ever look at the lives of people around you and say Man I wish that was me you know you do everybody does but I bet you never compare yourself to me I've been hurting me I do have my own Tv show in the Middle of the nights When I started I wanted to be his biggest Jerry seinfeld pt I'm not and yet I'm a pretty happy guy here's why I stopped comparing myself to other people seriously That's the whole trick here's what I mean if my happiness we're based on being the biggest comedian in the business I'd be manage what was getting more netflix special to me I have zero it we're based on having the best Tv ratings on the man Jimmy fallon he beats me every night and every were based on being rich I'm the man and a lot of people and even if I were ridge really rich like number 10 on the Forbes 400 rich I'll be mad with over nine other people richer than Me it never ends comparing yourself to others creates a totally unrealistic measure for what constitutes success and I know because the entertainment business is all about unrealistic expectations It's all through my career I meet with satisfied customers after my shows and then say hey you're good maybe someday you'll be successful like Jerry seinfeld he's the measure of success the top guy When someone tell you there a doctor you don't say what maybe someday you'll cure a disease and save millions of lives just like John assaulted for polio or a lawyer a while so what's your ultimate goal the Supreme court do you see Crazy that sounds professional success is about making a living pursuing excellence and finding meaning in what you do when I first started doing stand up I was a nobody it took more than a decade playing in front of tune Good crowds before it started paying the bills 10 years as a lot of time to tell jokes for no money to people who aren't laughing and those days I spend a lot of time thinking about the comedians I admired the guys at the top I'm one of those big sold out houses I wasn't playing the big paydays I wasn't making the Tv specials I wasn't doing and not just their success their talent I look at comments like George carlyn robin Williams and Louis ck they're all able to turn their dark personal struggles into brilliant comedy I am be there talent but I wouldn't want the dark personal struggles that went along with it if you don't factor in everything about whoever you can't Tearing yourself to your playing a sort of mix and match game that doesn't exist in the real world here's one of life's little truths everyone is a package deal you can't be one element of someone else's life in isolation that's cheating You can't say I won't Louis is money and fame J car collection and Tom wife and kids that person doesn't exist if you did you'd be pretty cool I would definitely wanna hang with him every And has pain in their lives think of anybody who you know really well you know the awful stuff that had to deal with the demons they battle how many dead rock stars movie stars and yes comedians does it take to convince us all that Everyone's life is hard face it you really don't want someone else's life you want your own life only better but that's the thing you can make your life better by not doing something Comparing yourself to other people back when I was a nobody I want to sell at the biggest venues and have a Prime time Tv show with millions of viewers now I sell out small venues and I'm on in the Middle of the night With half a million viewers and I appreciate every one of them I just wanna compare myself now to myself then I'm doing okay you should try it come time she'll do for University let's discuss an important concept from economics the laugh of this concept is named after the man who developed it are through laugher a major American economist was the universe kagoshima University of southern California Yeah and elsewhere laugher curve illustrates the two most important things we need to know about taxes how much money the government can raise from taxes and at what level taxation the government might start getting less not more revenue Laugher curve is illustrated here buy two dimensional graph the horse online is the tax rate of the other chooses in the vertical line is the revenue of the government receives from that tax rate first because zero times any number zero Home if the tax rate zero then the government receives zero revenue accordingly you'll zero is our first point on the curve now suppose the government chooses a very small tax rate same one percent the government will Then begin to receive some revenue from citizens this means that another point the curve must be something like this now suppose the government charges two percent tax rate then everyone would agree then it will receive even more revenue Which means another point in the curve must be something like this and if the government keeps raising the rate and will continue to go up at least one we're in the low tax rate part of the graph this means that if we fill in the curve it has an upward Hope at least more in low tax rate part of the graph now suppose the government charges a 100 percent tax rate if this happens then no one would work that is why would anyone work in the government's gonna take all the money that they may eight and if no one works in National income would be zero this means that government revenue would be 100 percent of zero or zero this means another point the curve must be here now Let's complete the current and we do we see that the curve must have a hump that is it could look like this or this or this but it has to have a hop this is simply because the revenue line Has to go up in the low tax rate choreograph and has to start going down to reach the point we drew at the 100 percent tax rate with the curve slopes downward implies something remarkable something that few of those Push for higher and higher taxes want to admit it means that when tax rates are high if you have make them hire you will actually bring in less revenue to the government this has in fact the curtain practice francis during the great depression When Congress passed the holly smoot tara fill a bill raise taxes on imported goods the revenue that came from those taxes actually decrease a more recent example occurred in early 19 eighties after President reagan and Congress Reduce the tax rates on the rich the tax revenue that came from the rich actually increased all economists even most left wing ones agree that the true Africa or the one that reflects real life has a heart Therefore the curve has a downward sloping part meaning at some point packs revenues started going down when you increase rates so wear them too economists disagree they disagree about exactly where the hot pokers When I took my first class in 19 eighty four for University the textbook said that the hump occurs somewhere around the 70 percent tax rate but apparently I was taught something wrong new evidence from unexpected Sources suggest that the hump occurs and a much lower tax rate something around 33 percent that source is a study by christina room or her husband David rumor both are economics professors at the University of California berkeley Christina rumor was the chairman of President obama's Council of economic advisers in other words study was written by one of the most influential liberal economists in the United States and was published in the American economic review most Highly respected economics Journal in the world study exam and our National income response the tax rates as far as we're concerned is here the key point is that if you do the math the results imply that the hump on the curve Occurs where the tax rate is around 33 percent much lower than a comes previously thought was now put these findings into political terms they suggest that no matter what your politics you should not want tax rates to be above 33 percent Obviously conservatives and many moderates niece rate should be lower than that but even if you aren't extreme left winger and your only goal was to make government as big as possible you should still oppose a tax rate hardin 33 percent The reason is that as the roman roller study suggest when tax rates go higher than that the government actually gets less money everyone of every political persuasion should pay attention to the roman room or study and it's important implications May suggest that if we be crease tax rates and government revenues might actually rides on tim close friends for political science and economics at ucla for prager University many people Believe that free market capitalism is selfish even in maro they say it's about Green about hunger for money and power then helps the rich and hurts the poor they're wrong the free Market is not only economically superior it is marley superior to any other way of organizing economic behavior here's why the free market calls for voluntary actions between Individuals there's no coercion in a free market if I want something from you I have to do something for you let's say I'm all year long and you pay me 20 dollars what is that 20 dollars really mean When I go to the grocery and say I would like to have four pounds of state he in effect says to me you want a lot of people to serve you ranchers truckers butchers and packages All these people have to be paid what that you do to serve your fellow man well I say I mowed my fellow man's long and the says prove it then I offer him the 20 dollars Think of the money that you burn as a certificate performance it's proof that you serve your fellow man people accuse the free market of not being maro because they say it's a zero sum game Like poker where if you win it means that I have to leave but the free market is not a zero sum game it is a positive sum game you do something good for me such as give me that steak and I'll do something good for you Give you 20 dollars I'm better off because I value the steak more than I value the 20 dollars and the grocer is better off because he value the 20 dollars more than the value the state we both live I Ironically it's the government not the free market that creates zero sum games in our economy if you use the government to get a food stamp a farm supply or business bailout you will benefit but at the expense Fellow citizens isn't more maro to require that people serve the phone in in order to have a claim on what he produces rather than not serve others and still have a clean but a lot of people I Ask what about giant corporations don't they have too much power over our lives not a free market because in a free market we the people decide the fate of companies who want our business free market Capitalism will punish the Corporation that does not satisfied customers or fails to use resources efficiently businesses big and small that wish to prosper are held accountable by the people who vote Pt with their dollars and again it's the government that can do this take the example of the American automobile industry it was struggling to survive in two thousand nine why Because they were producing cars that did not please a sufficient number of their fellow men in a free market they would therefore I'm gone bankrupt the market would have said look you're done Um sell your plant and equipment to somebody who can do a better job but when Chrysler and general motors failed they went to Washington dc and got the government to bail them out the government bailout essentially meant to the Um you don't have to be accountable to customers and stockholders no matter how inferior product is and no matter how efficient you are will keep you in business by taking your fellow man's money when the garment Fears in this way it takes the power away from the people and rewards companies that couldn't compete successfully in the market place that may work out very well for politicians big Union Nz incorporate officers but it's selling does the taxpayer that's why a free market system can only work if there is limited government limited government means you and I decide which businesses survive That's the America that our founding fathers envisioned a limited government that is only a few specifically mention or new rated powers that are listed in article one section eight of the United States Susan it's this brilliant limited government notion that produce the wealthiest nation in history in a free market the ambition and the voluntary efforts of citizens not the guy Mint drives the economy that is people to the best of their ability shaping their own destiny sounds pretty moral to me I walk away George mason University for prager University Hi I'm lisa kraus director of out reach your trigger you to have this video reach more people please consider a donation our colleges across America rife with racism sexism and homophobia if You answer no that's absurd you probably have a fair amount of common sense if you answer yes you're probably a College administrator wait you might ask College administrators accuse their Own schools of being racist sexist and homophobic how does that make any sense to understand how a College administrator thinks you must first as the popular saying goes follow the money if You do you will not only discover why College administrators declare their own colleges racist sexist and homophobic but also why if you're a student your tuition keeps going up and why if you're a parent your Bank balance Keeps going down here's how it works if colleges are racist sexist and homophobic the only way to change that if you're a College administrator is to create a massive diversity See and that of course is massively expensive no institution provides a more vivid example then the University of California a once great University system which is self destructing In the name of diversity the diversity ideology is encroached upon every aspect of the University of california's collective psyche admission it is the one constant in every University in Denver in Bitches on hiring distorts the curriculum and sex up Mass amounts of faculty time and tax payer money even the university's on going budget problems have not touched it since 20 10 uses And Francisco uc San Diego and La have all created new vice chancellor ships and diversity equity and inclusion with salary starting at a quarter million dollars a year or higher in Each of these new post is wildly redundant yet each new diversity position inevitably generates an even greater search of junior bureaucrats all sucking intuition dollars in 20 11 you Vice chancellor for equity and inclusion presided over staff of 17 yeah just one year later his staff and balloons to 24 no wonder the number of administrators at the University of For new almost equals that of the faculty here's and only partial list of the diversity bureaucracy at uc San Diego the associate vice chancellor for faculty equity the assistant vice chancellor Student diversity layers on the chief diversity officer the director of development for diverse The initiatives the director of the cross cultural Center the director of the lesbian gay bi sexual transgender resource Center the director of the women's Center this diversity bureaucrats place not Stop pressure on departments to hire on the basis of race gender and sexual preference they're trick is to set the hiring bar low enough to scoop and more female and minority candidates and then declare that anyone above That bar is qualified enough to trump the most qualified candidate when that candidate is a White or Asian male but sometimes even that ration of standards isn't enough in that Case the administration simply creates a new hiring category in September 20 12 after uc San diego's electrical and computer engineering faculty refused to hire a mediocre female Professor who the administration had tried to force on them to engineering school announce that would be creating a coach excellence position the schools orwellian phrase for women and minorities who cannot get hired even After hiring standards have been lowered remember these mash Nations are all in the service of a problem that doesn't exist it's entirely fabricated uses campuses like colleges throughout America are Easily the most welcoming and inclusive social environment and human history at least if you're not a conservative female and minority students are surrounded by caring adults who are dedicated to their academic success Enjoy opportunities for learning and self development through the envy of the world as for the faculty the idea that any academic Department would reject the most qualified candidate simply because that candidate with Black Hispanic female or gay is absurd not to mention an entirely gratuitous insult to every faculty member on the hiring committees University should be the institution in society that is the most dedicated to Using an evidence based decisions but with their crusade against their own make believe racism and sexism you see and almost every other American University betrayed that I deal everyday I'm heather Donald of the Manhattan Institute for prager University the London newspaper the daily mail listed the top 10 problems experienced by couples on vacation together and topping the list Was the man looking at other women in bikinis on the Beach now and another University course I explain the sexual power of the visual on men and as I show when is anyone readily understands unless they've been misled by politically Right College course the power of the visual to excitement has no analog in women women don't get excited by virtually every male body at the Beach male legs don't turn them on like female legs turn men on at cetera at Center It takes massive will power in fact for a heterosexual man not look at bikini clad women and few men even the nicest finest and most monogamous Lee faithful and loving have such will power so the daily mail notes this frequently This is probably just wanna couples itinerary includes a visit to the Beach and what exactly is the problem the problem is that the wife or girlfriend feels threaten by his looking and why does she feel threaten because she Think he is comparing her to those women and why does this disturb her here are three reasons first virtually every woman no matter how attractive thanks to win her man is looking at other women other women in general and in bikinis Especially he's finding them more attractive than her second she thinks that he is there for this satisfied with her which in turn around is the on spoken but primal fear that he might leave her and third Did she is sure that her man will continue to think about this will in the long after they disappeared from sight so now let's analyze these reasons first those the husband or boyfriend find these women on the Beach or for that matter anywhere else more attractive Any find his wife or girlfriend well since I believe that only honesty works in the long run the answer is sometimes yes he may very well find some of those women more physically attractive than his woman but here's the point that most women Understandably don't know with very few exceptions it doesn't matter you heard me right of course when looking at these other woman he may find some of them more physically attractive and the woman is with button here's the good To show what presuming he is attracted to you and if he is and it doesn't matter if you're vacationing in a monastery and only cesar months he wants you you I repeat he wants you and if he does all those other women Amount to a Hill of beans there's another thing women need to know within seconds of her disappearing from view is no memory of any of these women when insight that can take over is male mind when out of sight they're out of mind if Choose if they never existed yes the visual gets men's total attention in a matter of seconds when as soon as the woman he was focused on vanna she's most men forget what they saw in an equal number of seconds Why does this come as news and hard to believe news at that the most women because you the woman remember the women your man look that and you therefore think that he too remembers them but let me assure you he Shit most men under torture couldn't identify the women they looked at the hour before let alone the day before if they were shown photos of them along with photos of women they had never seen and more good news his seen women Who we think for that moment more attractive than you have no bearing whatsoever on is being this satisfied with you men find other women attractive in large measure just because they are other women men are program by Nature to one variety indeed endless variety that's why God fearing King solomon had 700 wives and another 300 concubines and secular hugh hefner had at least that many lovers in something when your man Look at these other perhaps even more attractive woman he is a not comparing you to them be not in any way becoming the satisfied with you and see certainly not thinking of them later he Sent them because they are other women whether they're more attractive just as attractive or less attractive they are women in bikini so he looks where there is basic domestic harmony and mutual physical attraction More than anything your husband wants you when he looks he is in comparing he's getting the satisfied and he won't have a clue later as he saw so when you're back in your hotel room Put on your own bikini and tell them you want it because again more than anyone else in the world he wants you and if you don't believe me ask him you'll be glad you did and so will the I'm dennis prager I'm Jerry show previews director
