Pretty good debate:

Ben Shapiro said that you cannot have universality, low cost and quality at the same time. He says you can only have 2, but we have it in cell phones, computers and many other commodities that are more free market than healthcare.

Loses points immediately off the bat.

Ann Coulter vs. Anna Kasparian:

I saw this earlier and I was hoping for Ann Coulter to knock Anna K out. But AC couldn't, she also said that Trump was most anti war candidate in the 2016 elections apart from Bernie Sanders a man who never actually staked any anti war position other than "I did not vote for the Iraq war" which by the way is the same as Obama during the elections. Ignoring Rand Paul.

Ben missed a good opportunity to call Cenk on the top tax rate talking point. The IRS collected more taxes now as a percentage of GDP now(35%) than when it was 90% in 1959.

As a percentage of GDP, they collected 8.26% in 2007 as opposed to 7.01% in 1959. Image that, top marginal tax rate just like sperm count(referencing to an earlier thread this week about white genocide- look it up) is not the end-all-be-all when it comes to taxes and fertility.

I enjoy listening to Shapiro however he needs to be called out when he calls supporters of Ron and Rand Paul isolationists.

The top .1% (not sure if they meant .1% or really .01%) paid about 28% of their gross income in taxes (federal, payroll, state, local, w/o sales tax) in 2013. In 1972 the top 1% paid a 35% rate and the top .1% paid a 49% rate. In the 1950s the top 1% paid a rate of 42% and the top .1% paid 51%.

Zippy would give us a graph.
