John Stossel is doing a good work, I wish there were more shows like this.

This is why we have, or supposed to have, a limited government. The federal government was never meant to do much. It has become bloated and extremely unconstitutional.

"have you been to any mall in American in the last 20 years? and arnt they Grand?" Where has this guy lived the passed 20 years not America because the Malls are being Foreclosed and Abandoned

in new hampshire state legislators only get something like 5k a year..they meet few times a year and have regular jobs like the rest of us...thats how it should be done.

and we pay for all that crap

Time to drain the swamp.

You can almost hear John Stossel recommending we bring back the guillotine.

Reminds me of when teachers say they don't do it for the money, but public school teachers often earn more than those in the private sector. In contrast, private sector charities have many volunteers who receive no compensation, including people who teach, tutor, or coach. Pretty obvious which ones are actually serving their community.

It's funny how @ 3:22 , any journalism that criticizes Govt. is not allowed in .

25 years ago in Seattle at the production company I was working for - the United Way had a fund raising in the meeting room - in the corner of the room stood the plant manager - staring straight at employees - a United Way employee then gave us a pre filled "donation" form already filled out with my name on it (no joke !) - then after the spiel - United Way staff stood on both sides of the door to take "donations" as we tried to leave . . . I saw the obvious (mafia style) shake down at the main exit so I tried to leave through the emergency exit door - a female employee of the United Way saw me walking toward the door and (to my amazement) blocked the emergency door - then she said "this is not a exit" (right above her head was the big red EXIT sign) as I walked around her I said "yes it is" (pointed towards the sign) then left . . . That was 25 years ago and I remember it Iike it happened yesterday - I always thought just how odd it was the connection between the Teamsters & United Way - it really looked like a mafia shake down . . . In my opinion non-profit is code word for organized crime . . . 👋🇵🇹

Good point malls are not built with tax dollars

3:13 Lol was that politician joking? I love John Stossel’s reaction to the politician, that’s exactly how I reacted.

Democrat and Republicans alike. They're playing for the same team with the same interests but wear different uniforms. And to be clear; their interest is in themselves, or more precisely, their wallets.

why'd you stop filming? if it is open for the public you can film or take photo's (First Amendment)

I wonder if this is why there are no congressional term limits? LMAO

"Once people come to D. C. . . . they never leave . . ." Sounds a lot like Hell to me. And what types of entities exist in Hell ? The damned and . . . the Demons

I wanna go "serve" my country with all the rest of the "public servants".

Honestly, John strossel IS the embodiment of true journalism

The true " let them eat cake " Living it up.

3 simple changes would make our country better for the people, make the politicians abide by the same plans that the population uses, I.E. 401k, buying their own health ins etc, and outlawing legal bribery, I.E. the lobby industry. The last is term limits, no career politicians. These three things plus others create a huge disconnect between the people and the politicians.
