Thom Hartmann Vs. Tanya Marchiol: Put an end to all Billionaires! (dumbest guest ever?)



Thom Hartmann debates Tanya Marchiol, Conservative Commentator / President-Team Investments Inc., over the need for a tax that would do away with billionaires in America.

(She sounded so clueless that Peter Ferrara and Seton Motley, two other regular debaters on the show, sound like sages. Some highlights: 4:35 the goofy smirk she has as Thom played audio of the president's tax plan speech, then she calls the tax hike "rape", then 6:10 she suggested instead of giving away tax money to the poor, educating the poor because they don't know about work ethic, which greatly offended Thom. She must have voted for the child labor candidate Newt Gingrich.)

towards the end of the interview she also claimed she had trouble hiring people because they make more money on welfare than working.

Her youtube channel: http://youtube.com/user/tmarchiol

She is a regular guest on Fox Business Channel and hosted "Bang for Your Buck" on HGTV. Apparently, she was once Donovan McNabb's financial advisor.

Geez, the way some of these people think is just so utterly repellant.

And they all self righteously work their 16 hour days.

I GOT MINE AND SCREW YOU.

Thom's explanations of PROGRESSIVE TAXATION and the societal pitfalls of not having it are stunning with clarity. Allowing the "JOB CREATORS" to keep even more of their money results in economic bubbles and the outright purchase of governments. And class warfare supercharged on 98% nitro.

I give you credit, Thom. She's as revolting as Hannity-Beck cubed!

Sorry, Thom. I just couldn't listen to it any more. She was nauseating. What a vile woman.

I thought "this is about the dumbest person I ever heard."
Well, this video confirms my suspicion.
I see that she is a money manager. Good luck to those that have invested in her.

You can't get anyone to work for you because you are a vile bitter person.

Hey there alp227 -

I would have DM'd this, but I just set up my account here.
I'm the THP Associate Producer.
We appreciate your posting the videos! However, could you change the title on this one? Cut the commentary about the guest in the title, please?
That's cool for text, comments, etc. But it takes guts for a conservative to face Thom, and get destroyed by him in a debate!
Thanks. Any questions, contact me at the show of via DM here.

Shane

She works 16 hour days and makes over a quarter of a million dollars. I work 16 hour days on my farm and I'm lucky to clear $30,000 a year. I'll bet my life I could do her job, but she would never be able to do the physical work I do on a daily basis. I just finished chasing off a 6 foot garden snake (don''t want to kill it. It eats mice and rats.) away from my baby chicks. I'd like to see her do that. She claims we poor just don't have any work ethics. We need educating on how to work. She's trying to hire someone right now and she can't find anybody. Probably because they don't clean her toilet the way she wants it cleaned.

She is just so ignorant and self satisfied, as if only she knows what work means and only she works hard.
