Bill Hicks - Deficit (Jesse Helms)

[arbitterm]

I'm amazed that Bill died in '94 and Helms didn't die until 2008. Two-thousand and fucking eight? God just continues to rob us folks.

@arbitterm

Yeah, If God is so powerful then how come evil bastards seem to live forever?

@arbitterm

And he lived to the ripe old age of 86, fucking chicken necked cracker shit head. Bill didn't even make it to 35. The only way to have any hope for life in general is to think that death is just a spiritual release, and that its a benefit to those who die. The people who are sad when someone dies... are alive. I bet Bill's spirit is better off away from the fevered ego's of the world. RIP.

[PublicEnemy04]

the fact that he said over 15 years ago and that is still true today saddens me...we should've done better.

"I'm no armchair psychologist"...followed by a near-perfect psychological explanation on the spot. Bill Hicks, what a legend.

[megathumos]

"I'm so sick of hearing about the god damn deficit that I could puke blood".... he is in my mind

[namtesyalp]

sad drug addict died a sorry scum bag with a foul mouth and of course hated decent and moral americans

[destroyerofsenses]

@namtesyalp Are you talking about Bill Hicks?? If so that is a ridiculous and ignorant.

[JDarkley]

It's amazing how Bill is still relevant. Don't believe me? Just listen to it again and replace "Jesse Helms" with "Scott Walker."

[namtesyalp]

@JDarkley scott walker that wants to stop the unions from stealing from its members and giving the money to the democrat party.make unions pay 8% of thier health care while the rest of us pay 3 times that much.way to go walker,bust the unions,right to work,right to life,no right to take from the sweat of others

[JDarkley]

@namtesyalp God forbid they have the right to bargain for affordable healthcare. May God also forbid Youtube commenters from ever using proper grammar and a space bar.

[namtesyalp]

@JDarkley barginning is not demanding not to pay anything while making other pay or wanting more while people have no work.unions caused general motors to go bankrupt.Not an english class,I guess it has to be made simple and on 5th grade level for you to understand.Lack of period confuse you?No capital letters on first work of sentances throw you off? SORRY,SIMPLETON,SORRY!

[74captainron]

@namtesyalp Teachers already fund 100% of their pensions. Right to work states have the lowest pay scales in the country. Kneecapping unions is the race to the bottom, cheerled by the likes of you, who instead of seeing someone with a pension and asking, "where's my pension?", say "pull them down to my level." Hicks hated stupidity and hypocrisy, and likely would have hated you. You call a man who said to choose love over fear a scumbag. Hicks hit a little too close to home in this video, huh?

[IshtarCelt]

This is so pertinant right now to us Irish...

a true prophet

[camilleelizabeth]

the fact that this was spoken over 15 years ago and is as true as ever today amazes me. bill knew his shit for sure.

[bd189]

or could you imagine how he would have been killjoying over strom thurman's bi-racial daughter? if he were still alive

[butheadVSbevus]

@camilleelizabeth he knew this before this with the Bush crises part I.

[NWFWMbudwieser]

@camilleelizabeth And we know his shit for sure. But we the "People" don't do anything about it.

[PhiloCentinel]

Bill Hicks is Jesus

[mos619]

We all are!

[lovehappycouk]

@PhiloCentinel I have said this for years, its good to hear it from others : )
