Wow you're actually retarded. Borderline anarchist? "I live in the suburbs of Boston"! stop talking, you have nothing positive to contribute. New american revolution? please
because when you actually pay attention; when you look at who voted which way on which House resolution; when you actually read what members of congress attach to bills; when you pay attention to the caliber of expert witnesses members summon to committee hearings; when you see what bills make it out of committee and on to the floor and in what order; when you read members' twitter feeds, floor speeches, and websites; you see the differences in priorities and policy as clear as day.
as easy as it is to find matching faults between Democrats and Republicans, it's even easier to find glaring contrasts. i tire of the "all politicians suck" and "both parties are the same" trope you hear so much -- most often from the intellectually lazy and politically incurious...
When l watch these people from these protests, many of them look like the treehugger here in sweden in the 1970´s. They look like welfare living slackers, you know pot smoking change the world with flowers and singing...kind.
Dude, thanks for making this video. This and Paul's video made me start paying attention to the protests, which I hadn't really been thinking too much about before.
Feeling very inspired. I'm trying to think of something I can do to help in some way but I live in a small town and my parents won't allow me to donate to this cause as they very different political leanings from me, so I'm going to have to get creative.
personally, I don't see the point in being an anarchist. I used to say I was in my early teens but now I just don't understand what the point of it would be. Sure, the government does some stupid stuff but not having one at all makes noooo sense to me.
@TheSethIkrass Nah, see i disagree. Sure there are a couple of solid tracks but most of them drag on... Especially towards the end of the album. The production is good but that's not what makes an album. 4 out of 10 for me.
@brandondittman You make a good point, I like their old stuff better than their new stuff...as for the originality factor, if people want some good shit, they should listen to "The Civil Rights Movement". Martin Luther King Jr, El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz better known by his stage name Malcolm X, The Black Panthers...that's some old school shit right their.
Capitalism is the snake that eats it's own tail, it's doomed to fail when it's ends outlive it's means.
Oh, and about the American Dream? The idea is bullshit, there is no things as true entrepreneurship, it's pretty much dumb luck. I'm not quite Anarchistic and not quite Communist/Marxist, they both have their pros and cons IMO.
supply should not be going up and the US is all backwards. Companies are willing to sell less at a higher price than more at a cheaper price. When the price increases, people are not able to afford and it stops the economy from growing. It is all about greed and the businesses need to get their heads out of their wallets and think about the global status of not only the US, but the world in general.
@bryanbko You are. . .wrong. You've got it backward. The more people want things, supply remaining constant, the more you can charge for them while still making a process. The more stock you have, demand remaining constant, the less money you can charge while still making a profit.
it's weird that you would make a video for this but maybe it's just that I'm used to music but this is a movement and it's about damn fucking time we stand up to our country.

I really hope the wall street protestors overcome the media blackout and get this heard! I also hope a similar movement happens in the UK.

as demand goes up, price goes down
as supply goes up, price goes up
