  • Where’s the hope & change that was promised to Americans in 08, when then candidate Obama was campaigning for the Presidency? Hope has dissolved, along with change. Over the course of Obama’s term as President, we have seen unemployment at an all time high, & the Gov continues to spend above & beyond limits. Ca is broke, raising taxes. Letting thousands of criminals out of Prison because lack of $. Freeways with pot holes bigger than basketballs . & still giving Welfare to illegals.

  • GOOGLE stimulus cigars and look at their page showing all the government waste in the stimulus package. More than 8,500 earmarks in a package Obama said would have no pork.

  • OMG!! This is plain criminal and how can the government of the u.s.a. allow such a travesty of injustice go unhinged!! It's a shame and i am sure the poor people and the small business owners will come together in the next election and i feel for the people of the states as they will never get out of this sham until they get rid of the privately owned federal reserve and create the greenback again!! A revolution is needed!!

  • but it helped to keep some jobs...toilet suppliers, curtain suppliers etc....and they will spend the money again (or borrow it back to ML) LOL

  • zeitgiess the movie!

  • All politicians should be payed on a commision basis.When they do anything that benefits the AMERICAN people they should get payed. Then and only then.

  • Brilliant!!!!

  • I've read about this spending in Newsweek. This is the results of the W Bush bank bailout. The problem was that the banks were given no rules on how to spend the money that should have been spent lowering mortgage rates and covering bad loans made. After Obama entered the White House (2 months before this video was posted), he pressed for regulations to put a stop to such corporate abuse.

  • Bush's bank bailout? Obama bailed out the banks, just like he bailed out GM and Lehman Bros. Next he wants to pump more money into medicare. So it's Bush's fault they need $35,000 toilets to shit in? I wonder if they wipe their asses with $100 bills? It's useless spending and it's Obama who let them spend it, Bush is gone and no longer the President. Think Pontius Pilate after he washed his hands.

  • Wiki both TARP and Presidency of Barack Obama. In the first 100 days of his administration, Obama saw pass a prohibition against firms receiving TARP funds from paying bonuses to their 25 highest-paid employees. This was passed IN RESPONSE to their gold-plated toilets coming to light.

    Obama also fired GM's CEO for mismanagement. He did bail out the company because supposedly so many investments rested in it that the economy would sink farther if it went under.

  • we are taking it up the @ss and not doing anything about it. The government which rules the banks are all corrupt!

  • Senator Wilson from S. Carolina: Told to apologize to the President by the Rep. Party?? Why? Senator Wilson, Jr. Senator, is the only one in Congress who has the guts to say what all of us know...Obama lies. This is the type of Republican the party needs; not the meek but someone who really cares for our country and will tell the truth at the risk of losing his seat in Congress. He is the only one of them, in my estimation,who is saying what all of us have been saying...stop big government.

  • hows the ass fucking feel america

  • LOL yeah, and that 87 stock crash was really bad, all linked to Reaganomic dummy math. *_*

  • watching the decline of America is very depressing.

  • we live in a country that is more cncerned with its image than the well being of its citizens

  • you mean more concerned with its wealthy.

  • Of course this is all becuase Wall St. owns the government, especially since we've had 30 yrs of deregulation get gov out of the market hysteria.

    These banks should have been broken up and any money given guaranteed to be lent to US business. Instead we just threw money at the same crooks that tanked the economy

    More money should go to stimulus - teachers, infrastructure, new energy, etc, and much less to Wall St.!

  • Deregulation is in direct conflict with fiscal stimulus of the economy. If government was "getting out of the market", there would be no stimulus.

  • FACT ! Without the stimulus we would be near 18 % unemployment, no cops,no firemen,no teachers. Now what happens ......... hmmm, we all unravel as a society for quite sometime if not a crumbled empire ? I am ex military, I love my 2 nd amendment, but the repubs lately are not the type that care about the public folk, they are all about taking bribes from corporate scums and get paid during ,and under the table after they are out of office while leaving U.S is flames.

  • I am still so very proud of Ronald Reagan for allowing that liberal minded woman to educate him about Russian society in helping him realize that U.S.S.R was very much a Christian society and not Godless as Reagan had previously thought, then he stood at that wall and made history, but as an economist ?? LOL he was the worst EVER, I mean come on man ! that is some serious dumbshit math, in fact Ronny had to decrease the initial tax break to the rich because an instant recession already sparked

  • Oh yes the recession of 1983 and dont forget the stock market in 1987.

  • Most of this corporate bailout took place under Paulson/Bush, Obama simply stepped into the mess and had to do the same thing that happened the last time Republascums sold us out and let the big banks pull thier scams buy simply deregulating them and giving the rich a tax break and foolishly entrusting them to TRICKLE the money down to the middle class, pretty much Reaganomics. This is simply the same thing taking place and the only way to avoid a depression is to spend tax payer money

  • remember the S and L scandals under ronald.

  • WE should of handed them rolls of toilet paper. Where is are mony going some where ealseand why is are food shiped from anotheir state over . why cant we by food grown in the same state that we live .

  • Comment removed

  • Low number of views say how much the public is interested... as opposed to Obama Girl, who gets tens of millions of views.

    The brainwashed, braindead People Of The United States-- you should feel proud of yourselves about where your priorities are!

  • This is the very reason why The Powers that can pretty much get away with anything they wish! The Majority of the American ppl dont care!

    most have become so dependant on there lifestyle they dont want to do anything to affect it even if it means standing up for nothing!

    most folks just have jobs. They are not businesmen they are employees and subject to others anyway. Basicly Slavery 2.0

  • Zellymusic, I take the marching on Washington and the tea parties and the town hall meetings to be statements by a lot of Americans that we have to stand up. We have to care. I don't know what to do, but I can't be quiet. The stench of the fraud that is Washington turns my stomach - across all party lines.

  • I don't think that it is that people don't care. It is that the average (working) american feels beat down and doesn't know what to do. We are taxed constantly and see our money wasted.

    I agree with the slavery 2.0 part. We as a people have been placed in overwhelming debt. When you are in that kind of debt you are controlled and no longer free.

  • we are a very giving country ..so long as its not for the people who truly need it .

  • Like the Philippines. The US were so giving to the Philippines. When the Philippine president wanted a talk, like needed money from the USA. USA was like no problem, were going to give you money. But guess what? An idiot US were giving out money to a corrupt president and not knowing what chaos would bring to the developing countries. Of course every time when US do that, theres always a political ways or obligations why US were giving out money. In reality, IMF & W.Bank were ones receiving it!

  • wow 35,000 toilet sounds like sum expensive shit !

  • Well u know its a better quality toilet!

    It Flushes a certain way that helps the environment! and it recycles Human waist into useable energy! and the water it also uses is purified on the spot as it flushes and is instantly pumped back into the water supply.

    I feel this Toilet helps the World and makes a Cleaner Safer place to live!

  • hahaha this is a joke right? I need a 32k dollar toilet to wipe my @ss with the governments bills

  • LOL Funniest thing I have seen on youtube yet!

  • We loaned money to foreign nations... so what? Thats a better investment than excutive bonuses which is a crock. Foreign governments will have to pay us back with interest and actually generate income back into the United states over the long run. Whether I agree with it or not isn't the issue; at least I can understand why they did that. As opposed to the illogical decision of giving Billions to executives whose work performance redefined the phrase "Epic Fail"

  • So, there are only 2 choices as far as you're concerned: either billions to foreign nations, or billions to corporate executives.

    have you ever thought they both might be wrong?

  • I feel You bro Lets RIOT!

  • lets fucking take over the government , and take our country back. The government is suppose to be for the peolpe, and by the people, the government is suppose to answer to the american people, not vise versa. FUCK THE GOV. AND FUCK OBAMA.

  • what's the source of these statistics?

  • BAILOUT!!! Largest THEIVERY,Ever...

  • These People deserve to suffer like we do

  • Pay your federal taxes to your home state. Corporate taxes, personal income taxes, the whole nine yards. Our economic stimulus our way. Face it, it's the money. And it's our money, not theirs. Do this and the only recession will be the one in Washington.

  • I really WISH people would STOP referring to these monsters as AMERICANS. They are NOT. Wake up to more information. If that is the case, Americans have money, and how many do you think that applies to??? Don't watch 90210 and think you have an idea of what an AMERICAN is.

  • N2thedrink, yes, bush and congress did mess up our economy pretty bad. but all that he talks about in this video is what's happening now, with this package, there wasn't a bailout, nor a stimulus package before now.. which is why he's pointing out the *cough* genius of it

  • This video really helps. Just wait until the end for it to sink in.

  • Why are you complaining? Why are you people even bothering to watch this?

    This was YOUR president and YOUR representitives!

    IF YOU REALLY CARED YOU'D HAVE PAID ATTENTION SOONER!

  • And the new President and Congress are multiplying this problem exponentially. It's time for YOU to start paying attention as well!!!!

  • It's not as if I didn't send emails up the kazoo, or made phone calls to the Capitol switchboard until my ear was sore. Fact is, We the People don't matter anymore. It's no longer a government for and by the People. It's a government OWNED and controlled by Wall Street moguls, lawyers, and loan sharks.

  • Well thank you for your effort, at least I'm not the only frustrated one. You know the little sticker you get when you vote-"My vote counted" Guess what, not ONE of mine did, and I paid attention.

  • Our vote is useless. It's just ceremonial anymore. The Diebold machines are horribly rigged, and they've refused to use paper ballots, for obvious reasons. I think they know their time is "running out", and they're pulling out all of the stops. The Constitution isn't followed any longer, which justifies an uprising if you read the quotes of past presidents.

  • They transferred the debts from the banks and AIG to the American people read it and weep 1.8 Quadrillion Dollars has been transferred to the backs of Americans.

    Yet like dildos all Americans can talk about is bonuses.

    the Benedict Arnolds in congress Murdered America

    the banks and AIG are in party mode the American tax payers now own their debts .

    AMerica is over seriously

    what they are not telling you is murdering you

  • Yes! The media concentrated all the attention onto the bonus monies, while completely ignoring the overall staggering costs. And hardly any dialogue about Geithner's unprecedented new powers.

  • i think we need to slow down this government NOW! we can't just sit around and take this crap.. it just keeps getting worse!! i wrote my congressman - i am waiting to have a meeting... we need to get some republicans in congress pronto!

  • @catonalake: The Reps aren't much better nowadays. What MUST be done first and foremost, is nullify the Federal Reserve Act, the 16th Amendment. We must return the power to coin money unto Congress as before. Everything else would fall into place afterward.

  • Catonalake, I agree but I'd revise the thought: We need to get some honest, hardworking politicians in congress, pronto!

  • agreed - strike that comment about republicans - i have been a dem voter for my entire tenure until recently - now i am independent - thanks ACourtRep for pointing out we need HONEST HARDWORKING politicians - i don't even care if they are of a brand new party - say one that is called the Constitution Party?

  • I don't even know what party I'd belong to either. I just know I am disgusted. As an eithical enterprise, the federal government is a dismal failure.

  • @catonalake politics is not the answer to a problem, which is politics

  • It may just be me but all I get at the free exam is the option 1 or 2 page and the email registration form

    Do you have to sign up just to take the test?
