The Corporate-Person American Anthem

[CaptHiltz]

Obvious sarcasm. If that is the case, good job Will.

[The5thAveMonster]

Good act kid, guess your using such to make a name for yourself. Luv the dense and vague reasons you use in a couple of video's I've seen you in. Ya ask me this is just air headed nonsense.

[lennieandkate2]

@Chuck; yeah, I agree. If anyone can point out a Congressman/woman or Senator who isn't even indirectly entitled to wear some kind of corporate logo, he/she should be exhibited in the Smithsonian. I also believe that the offspring of Rupert Murdoch and Sarah Palin would be the Anti-christ. If anyone cares.

[thanhp6]

you can't win fuck of government bullshit.

[Room0468]

Government is a corporation.

[teddybruscie]

This was just beautiful.

[truthfinder2175]

Julian Assange:

the defining human struggle is not left versus right, or faith versus reason, but it is individual versus institution....truth, creativity, love, and compassion are corrupted by institutional hierarchies that ultimately contort the human spirit.

[CRAPCANNONS]

why is the left still pretending that there is a divide between government and the private sector?

why continue to maintain this fiction?

corporations don't just vanish because you have leftists in office. only competitors of these corporations are hampered.

government is the megacorporation's best friend.

[TheXD8D]

good luck.

[MarSilF]

Cool song LOL

[frvfilms]

we need to take back our country from greedy corporations!!

[mrchiefofsinners]

My wallet is not the government's ATM.

[StarQualityWins]

Money isn't wrong, wealth is not wrong. Corruption IS wrong. Limiting the prospects of human achievement and vision by making some life-paths unavailable, is also wrong. You should be able to make your dream a reality. If your goal is a farmer, gift store owner, actress, politician, teacher, architect, it should be possible. Success is something to be proud of. Failure is not. How can you hope for progress if only poverty, a symbol of lacking, is acceptable? That's not realistic or pro-active.

[TheresPooOnMyShoe]

Was I supposed to laugh?

[rgvmom]

The Supreme Court made a very un-American decision in the ruling last year in my humble opinion. I'm still amazed at the cynicism of that ruling, so not reflective of what we kids who grew up in the idealistic 50's were taught about what it means to be a patriotic American. So destructive of our individual rights as American citizens. Excellent social comment, Mr. Rice.

[uzamakirendan]

1) Hold your breath.

2) Copy all of these steps.

3) Go to two other video.

4) Paste it in the comments.

If you can do all of this without breathing you're a good pot smoker

[exsinor]

Good tongue in cheek presentation---I pledge allegiance to the Corporate States of America--

[yirmyahfox]

YOU SUCK CORPORATE DICK 

[isisdad]

the free market, free trade was supposed to help our people..instead it is helping the rich get richer. It is savings that are not being passed down to consumers....or anyone for that matter. I say tax the rich until they decide to start spending their money and really stimulating the economy.

[jacksongogo]

wow ,this is a great article !

I am a business woman and always so busy ,Find local rich friends ,business parters ,wealthy mates ,i think -----Rich'Friends.0rg- is the best choice !

recently i don't know why so many people are talking about it , i just love that site !hope more people will find our friends there !

[MagnetoMasterOfEvil]

It's all bullshit. There is no way you can beat the banks in their owned COURTS,. They pick the judges, both parties candidates, and all of youu legislature. If you want to make a difference, take every freakin penny you have out of banks, 401k's, stocks and etc. Destroy banks and then WE THE PEOPLE will win.

[MarkTimchuk]

Is this a joke??? minutes wasted :(

[vitortomita]

I'm totally for corporate-oriented politics, and IPOs for everything, and the stuff the song talks about.

So even though I'll never agree with the campaign itself, I'll be singing the song around =D

[AriZaEntertainment]

you.are... are... uglyyy

[Nightwish322]

[mastershido]

[gavin4785]

[nuke572]

[putittogether]

This is going to be an epic fail. But rest assured the mainstream media will praise it as a success.

[DIJV79]

OHH! yes. Those niggers the ones who wrote the 14th amendement which inherently made the whole population slaves bureaucratically disguised as a democracy. Yes, blame the niggers they control the Federal Reserve Bank LOL! Yes, blame the niggers the ones that are going to throw your ass in a FEMA camp LMAO.

[HomleandSecurity]

This is some white people bullshit. I bet not a single nigger is at this rally.

[wildpeachatl737]

@HomleandSecurity - Hopefully niggers won't show up, but maybe some Black people will.

[DIJV79]

@HomleandSecurity WOW! niggers are that much of a threat? LMAO. Yeah! blame the niggers the ones who own the banks and get trillions of dollars in bailouts, OHH! yes those dam niggers the ones who foreclose on your house and send your job to China.

[HomleandSecurity]

@DIJV79 You're racist.

[DIJV79]

@HomleandSecurity Yes! blame the niggers and hope to God they don't show up at this rally, thats what you want right?

[HomleandSecurity]

@DIJV79 Your racism is sickening.

[DIJV79]

@HomleandSecurity I'm being sarcastic dumbass, you need to grow a fucking brain because everytime you open your mouth you make yourself look like an idiot and you are not a political expert, you have no clue of how this political system really works. You are an expert at being stupid shit, so shut your mouth and wait for Jesus to save you while the rest of us Black and White try and fix this dam country.

[HomleandSecurity]

@DIJV79 You're very insecure and defensive.

[DIJV79]

@HomleandSecurity And is that it?

[HomleandSecurity]

@DIJV79 You're being defensive

[LukeWhitaker]

Good luck, in whatever it is you are attempting to do.

[Misterafyableism]

@LukeWhitaker

We need more people like him standing up for what they are attempting to do.

[LukeWhitaker]

@Misterafyableism - lmao rocknroll

[AnIntangibleBadge]

YESTERDAY IS HERE.

[rollsthepaul]

We corporations are citizens, the masses are second class citizens.

[HomleandSecurity]

@rollsthepaul Truth brother. But the masses don't get that. They think they're something more than cogs in the machine. They think they have rights and that they're individuals. Our task is to take away these rights, remove individualism and make them realize that working for our profit is the only meaning they have in life.

I watch a football game on TV and point at the audience, telling my son, "Those people owe me money, son. I get 4% of their pay checks."

I love America. I am America.

[anisuthideyakoindu]

@bogus0anus you're obsessed by doggies!

[Michael425x]

It will get better Will.

[Elidden]

if 2pac rap this shit ti will rock

[chuck3377]

Gov't shoud be an organization of American people that protect all U.S. citizens from corporate facism. It used to be that. Now the coporations own our gov't and use it against us the people. A classic example is a tarriff, its in the citizens interest to keep good jobs here, but its in the corporate interest to offshore them. Corporations use the corporate owned media to promote the corporate agenda. Gov't is the largest employer in the u.s.a, walmart 2nd biggest and a private corporation.

[buzwazfuz]

@chuck3377 Tariffs and off-shoring try to promote free trade. Free trade evens out the resources allocated to each country. Therefore trading with other countries allows for a higher standard of living for both parties, (high school economics). Also, corporations are not evil, it is that some corporations like Walmart act evil so we blame all "corporations" when probably 95% of the businesses you go to each day are corporations. In fact, my brother who is 23 just found his first corporation.

[chuck3377]

@buzwazfuz I know what they taught you in your high school, and your so dumb that even though the standard of living is falling in the u.s., and the gap between the rich and poor has never been as big as now, (it was even smaller in the depression) and I know youll go back to your high school charts to check, you think that free trade has helped the middle class of the u.s. Look around you moron, the place is falling apart, and if you even out with a worker in jarkarta, you can liveina dirthut

[buzwazfuz]

@chuck3377 do some research and referring to me as a dumb high school kid is a fallacy. The fact is that free trade has allowed people to get goods cheaper in history. Please do some research. And I know things may seem like they are "worse" off but that is all psychological. Just because you can buy a million things doesn't mean that you are poor because you can't have everything. Before, a t.v. and a.c. were huge luxuries. Now everyone wants a iPod, PC, Xbox, etc.

[chuck3377]

@buzwazfuz Things suck now compared to how they used to be in this country before corporate facism ruined amercia, the world, and the middle class. Its not a fucking hallucination, the 100,000 people in the street in wisconsin is not your imagination. Enjoy your corporate shithole.

[buzwazfuz]

@chuck3377 They might suck for you, but I just started my first corporation. And maybe the people doing these protests don't understand the benefits of having a corporation or what a corporation is. I do think that some corporations are "bad" like Abercrombie, Walmart, McDonalds, etc. I just don't go to their businesses. But to say things suck is stupid. How do they suck when corporations provide us with new technologies and food to make our lives easier?

[chuck3377]

@buzwazfuz before the 1900's when corporations were invented, people did have jobs, and did invent things like the water wheel, the wheel, a lamp. Corporations are a imbomination, legal sleaze so you can do something horrible for money and not be responsible for it personally, its to limit liability, otherwise when rich people do horrible things for money at the company they own, they would be responsible for their actions. You should lay yourself off. You and coporate facism can suck my cock

[buzwazfuz]

@chuck3377 You are pretty ignorant so I am going to end my "internet battle" with you. Maybe one day you will appreciate the things corporation have done for you as you drive your car, wearing clothes, listening to music, and drinking a Pepsi.

[chuck3377]

@buzwazfuz people had transportation, clothes, music, and things to eat and drink long before the 1940's when corporations became the monsters they are. Now they control the transportation, clothing, music, food, and fuel, and now your a debt slave and your kids will be worse off than you, and be corporate controlled debt slaves with corporate micro chipped embedded in them.

[32Krzych32]

@chuck3377 You are so wrong. What do you even mean by saying "A classic example is a tarriff", this shows you have no idea what you are talking about. What you are advocating for is that a group of people (what a corporation is) should not be able to run their business how and where they want 2. If they want to offshore jobs THEY HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO DO SO, you may not like that but it's the truth. Guy that talks about fascism.......

[chiachuck]

@32Krzych32 The concept of the corporation (in the U.S.), was created solely as a way for a group of people to gain a temporary charter in order to combine their assets/skills with the EXPRESS intent of benefitting the community. Charters were temporary, and only allowed to those groups who could outline exactly how their existence was going to provide a boon to society. So, in fact, it is you who are completely wrong.

[chuck3377]

@chiachuck yes this is well said and true, it was origionally temporary charters only, and to recieve a charter one had to prove to the gov't, that it would help the community. The gov't would keep a close eye on the charter because our grandparents knew not to let corp's run wild. They were smart enough to know this, now krzych32 in a new world order moron educated by right wing pro corporate facist tv, and he believes the idiot box even as his country collapses around him. MORON 32KRZYCH

[32Krzych32]

@chuck3377 HAHAHAHAHAHA NWO WTF HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

[32Krzych32]

@chiachuck corporations are not created to benefit community. They are created to separate assets and liabilities from their owners as a separate legal entity. They are created to benefit their owners not the community and unless you can give me some sources I will have to call BS on what you are saying.

[chiachuck]

@32Krzych32 I was talking about the corporate model as it was originally introduced in the U.S. Granted, since that time it has evolved into what you describe, and we are paying the penalty for allowing it to happen. We are now dealing with the after-effects of gross deregulation, and must ask ourselves; Do we want our freedoms protected by a government directly answerable to those it governs, or regulated by corporate interests answerable only to the privileged few?

[chuck3377]

@32Krzych32 bottom line, as corporations have gotten evermore powerful and deregulated since the 1960's, the middle class in the u.s. has shrunk. The gap between the rich and poor in the u.s. has never been as big as it is now. A bunch of people forming a corporation is not bad, business is not bad. What is bad is when corporations become so powerful that they can have negative effects on a society. The quality of live for the american people is more important than any corporation.

[chuck3377]

@32Krzych32 In a democracy the people have the right to make and pass laws that oversee corporations. This is a right of democracy, if the people deem that a corporation is negativly effecting the quality of their lives they have a democratic right to pass laws governing the corporations. It would maximize profit to repeal the 13th admendment and make slavery legal again, this would increase corporate profits, and shareholder wealth, however it is unethical to legalize slavery.

[matshadwhite]

@chuck3377 hilary clinton was a big time walmart employee

[chuck3377]

@matshadwhite not an employee, a director, she's on the board of directors.

[superduc99]

wtf?

[rfhlaxking]

i feel bad for this man

[bsol07]

wow this is probably the worst song i've ever heard

[Mixman77]

We need to make a stand as US citizens, as our elected officials are actually believing they are, to quote a democrack, "we are on a higher level in life than US citizens, therefore we demand respect". It's quite obvious, the democracks have lost their minds and are doing EXACTLY what many of us tried to tell the people they would do, BEFORE the 08 election. It's time to REFORM the US government, ENTIRELY! ....NO CHANGE to our constitution, just replace all the, "officials". Say It ..IT'S TIME!

[walteregeaux]
