  • There are several real conspiracies that have as their goal a homicidal sociopathic form of fascism. Take for instance the several "libertarian" propaganda mills that claimed there is no evidence tobacco smoking causes cancers. Or the same propaganda mills that claim there is no evidence humans caused the current global temperature anomaly (Marshall 'Institute;' Heartland 'Institute;' Cato 'Institute' for three examples of several). These people are out to maim and kill, for money.

  • It's hard for me to concentrate without Ana :[

  • I wish there was a way to disable that very very inaccurate closed captioning..examples - it reads: 'anderson' for as soon as- 'evade ministration' for administration- 'white out no open' for wide out in the open.. here's one i can't even decipher "loose some those witcher intellectual capture some"

    etc etc..

  • Some people go too far but especially when so much shady shit is going on... i don't get all the hate and convenient dismissal of anybody labeled a "conspiracy theorist". The mainstream even uses the word in a way that it is automatically a negative, outlandish thing.

    What is so wrong or stupid about questioning the official stories we're fed by our economic and government overlords. Many "official stories" have already been declassified and proved to be complete bullshit.

  • @bobshenix Agreed, its so sad how anyone with an open mind is treated like shit for little to no reason. Even when you try to have a rational conversation with "theory-bashers" they just get offended, treat you like you're their enemy until you are, mock you without checking anything out to be true or false, then lying about it saying that they did(or over exaggerate whatever the first thing is they find that counters your argument), which just misleads more people.

  • I hate how people say that the Native Americans were wiped out. They are still here and still suffering, don't refer to them in the past tense.

  • @Lukege15 They say that because there are hardly any of them left. VERY FEW. Most of them are not even full-blooded. Duh.

  • @tarazzazi77 Dear Idiot,

    Wiped out suggests nothing is left... Duh. You referred to the fact that there are still Native Americans here today and therefore you have done nothing more than support my argument.

    Thank you for your time.

    Regards,

    Lukege15.

  • @Lukege15 well sheesh!! wasnt trying to be rude. all i meant was might as well call them wiped out. gah.

  • @tarazzazi77 Well you better learn some manners then, otherwise you just come across as a pretentious, arrogant and ignorant brat.

    Regards.

  • Reminds me of the book "Joint Resolution" by Maxwell Black

  • This is a great piece of video. Theories of that nature are necessarily extraordinary claims, and extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. The goal is to go by evidence and reason to decide which of these are true and which of these are crap. Be willing to change your mind based on facts and evidence and you can't go wrong.

  • The world is probably hollow. The Mayan's and the Egyptians had contact with ancient civilizations. Look up that one. Oh by the way I know the truth about everything. Ready? Anythings possible. Keep an open mind in order to adapt for survival. Thos who call conspirators crazy commonly simply reject all forms of information that conflict with there perception of reality. These people are truly helpless. Id like to say told ya so but by that time ill be too busy flyin to the antartic.

  • I'm not afraid of the elite and believe in just about all these so called conspiracy theories. It's just that its going to take more than just me to go up against it and waiting for the sheep to wake up if they ever do in my life time.

  • @RoonGang09 that's exactly what i feel!

  • @LAKings777 You have strained away from the path of logic and therefore your argument is invalid.

  • might screw people over A LOT LESS

  • 05:28 - if that system isn't corrected I fear WWIII or one very big war might happen.... with all its (possibly undeserved) power, the same system that Cenk speaks off that affects the US unfortunately AFFECTS MOTHERFUCKING US ALL!!! enough is enough! may the scumbags be thrown out of politics and may all human beings be allowed to live in freedom and prosperity!

    if the US were more of a fair-player and worked together with the EU, Russia and China might soften too and world politics

  • @LAKings777

    Well, I won't deny that there are many stupid conspiracy theorists out there since the internet came up, like those idiots who believe in the moon landing hoax, etc, but your ignorant comments make you look even more ignorant than those guys.

  • @LAKings777

    How can you say that 9/11 conspiracies are bullshit? Are you a clairvoyant?

    One thing is for sure. The US governments agenda benefitted from the 9/11 desaster, like Adolf Hitler benefitted from the Reichstag fire. Hitler blamed it on the communists to prohibit all other parties and the next day the Germans woke up in a dictatorship, while Bush cut your civil rights and liberties and you woke up in a surveillance state.

    The Reichstag fire was an inside job. 9/11 a déjà vu.

  • You cannot out checks on companies without eliminating lobbying (bribery) in government. You may see news items and even bills presented from time to tie which claim to hold business accountable, but it is i=only smoke and mirrors.

  • Cenk talk staight talk,- and i like him ! (chek out George Green on Project Camelot !

  • Apparently Europeans can take whatever they want but it's not like Europeans left entirely to their own devices create peace on earth eh?

  • US is a republic, not a democracy. After signing the declaration of independence, George Washington was approached by a journalist who asked him "what have you given us, sir" and George answered "a republic... If you can keep it." Looks like we've been losing our republic more and more everyday as the staged terror attacks gives our gov't the green light to confiscate our freedoms in the name of 'increased security'. 9/11 brought about the Patriot Act which abolishes our fourth amendment.

  • @DaConspiracyTheorist It was Benjamin Franklin that said that not George Washington

  • This is great. He is talking about a conspiricy so well known yet so digusting. In a way you can't deny or call crazy kooks etc

  • Cenk looked like an idiot talking about "communism"=stateless society as in name one after pre-history

  • Uhh.. Cenk didn't really answer his question.

    What kind of conspiracy theories are real, or does Cenk agree with?

    He basically described corruption, similar but not the same.

  • another real one is how the cia ended the black panthers, the same cia were keeping tabs on Tupac Shakur. There is documented evidence proving these things. The same cia also were responsible for bringing crack into South Central with the aid of "Freeway" Ricky Ross who is now in prison but the same agent that got caught with supplying Ricky Ross with the drugs did not do any time.

  • Life is survival of the fittest. If you allow yourself to be victimized you will be. Being angry is weak. The intelligent control their emotions and will devour you aluve.

  • @BowToMySkill Depends on what you define as "white". They weren't white europeans, but they certainly are certainly caucasian to this day.

    Either way they aren't defined as part of a Western civilization. They were an Eastern empire, unlike the Romans and the Greeks at that time.

  • @BowToMySkill

    So? It's justified to murder an entire population for being primitive? Or were they primitive? The Iroquois Confederacy (that settled in modern New York State) had one of the most advanced forms of governments at that time: an actual democracy where they made decisions as communities, and tribal chiefs removed through votes.

    Who the hell are you to judge the superiority of Western civilization over the Native Americans?

  • @BowToMySkill

    ohhh and arabs invented sea travel..

  • @BowToMySkill

    ehhh at that time

    nothing of the things you invented existed

  • GO TYT!!! keep doing what you're doing.

  • @BowToMySkill That's because the Europeans tried to steal the land. They had no right to do that.

  • @BowToMySkill the europeans attacked first

  • i feel like this was incorrectly titled. lol

  • wow this was the stupidest segment the young turks ever broadcasted

  • I agree in general with alot of what is said , however, there are larger overall agendas that have been implemented for decades. I believe the world is run by the "Golden Rule". Those who have the gold make the rules. Has always been that way through history. These power elite dominate citizenry to its own detriment. True free market capitalism would eventually eliminate their monopolies on industry and government control. Its Fascism in the U.S., not Capitalism.

    read Daily Bell. com

  • Nicely put Cenk. I can tell you really did read Jesse Ventura's book. American Conspiracies is loaded with knowledge bombs. Everybody needs to read it.

  • Well.....good job TYT....you've impressed me.

  • 0:00

  • Comment removed

  • um fuck you?

  • I don't follow all of TYT's info, but this was fairly correct, except that this country was meant to be a REPUBLIC, and not a "Democracy". Learn the difference. Secondly, Google WTC 7 and watch the explosions coming out of the windows before it collapses in 6.5 secs. These people do not care about you. They only care about wealth, power, and total domination, and 3000 lives don't mean squat to them. Our Govt. has been hijacked by criminals. It's not about Right vs Left. It is the STATE vs YOU!!

  • a message to Al-Qaeda organization

    /watch?v=KRD9jthexQk

  • I don't understand why socialism is such a bad word in America. It's almost like saying that you're a nazi there. I live in Holland, and our system of government is much more sociable than USA; and works much better in my opinion. "45,000 people die each year in the US due to a lack of health care insurance" Like WOAH!!!.......

  • @

    wtfjaftw I'd reply but I'm not sure what you said.

    Either you're in grade school, retarded, or a victim of Americas education system. If it's either of the latter two cases then you're exactly the kind of person who should *love* socialism becuase it's a system that would respect you and help you become the best you you can be. Instead, you're defending a system that's, I guessing's, been sh*tting on you since the day you were born.

    And btw, my own branch of socialism is decentralised.

  • Well said, Cenk. You fill in a very important gap concerning America's need to know and how to balance the powers so that tyranny never gain the upper hand. Jesse Ventura has likewise asked questions in his burden, in which insufficient answers are given and the questions he has raised have been deliberately downplayed. I'm very grateful as an American that there are a good number of people whose combined experience presents a fairly complete picture, to make revision and reformation for change.

  • we didnt wipe them out i have a freind that is absolutlly 100% cherrokee and they sort of had it coming

  • TheYoungTurk is an arm of the elitist system.

  • im so sick of hearing about the kulon children and how theyre taking over the world or whatever the hell

  • good points

  • we're living in a dictatorship in the US at this moment!

    isn't the ability to make an executive order the same thing as a dictatorship?

  • @RevolutionNewsDotUS executive orders have been around for decades. every president has used them. do your research.

  • @j4kp07

    so your point is that since it's been happening for decades that it's ok?

    maybe you're right.. let's continue to wipe our asses with the constitution!

    let the dictatorship continue ... since our first dictator, abe lincoln!

  • @RevolutionNewsDotUS no my point is, don't point the finger at the current administration as if it is something new. we should be pointing our fingers at all administrations.

  • i wonder what Cenk thinks on JFK and 911 conspiracy theories

  • @wtfjaftw

    There's so much fail in that statement I'm not sure where to begin.

    Firstly, you know remarkably little about socialism for someone who critisises it, but then again, maybe that's to be expected; you actually make a great advertisment *for* socialism; thanks

    Secondly, did the fact that 18 people agreed enough with what I said to bother clicking the button not give you pause, even for a second, to wonder if maybe you should think things through some more, maybe do some research?

  • What does this video have to do with Conspiracy Theories?

  • 3 words --- NEW WORLD ORDER.. Cenk has just explained how the NWO is taking over the world.. Thats not conspiracy anymore okay you trollers, - its just been expained

  • Wow fuck sakes!!! Youv'e just confirmed the system, the NWO

  • 1 - 9/11

    2 - JFK

    3 - NWO

  • It's not class warfare, it's plain, old fashioned colonialism, for & by an elite, which now completely controls the US government. It bought & neutered the media then used 9/11 to impose the Patriot Act, overturning the Constitution. How did they pull this one off? Easy. A new Pearl Harbor to instill fear in the population & rally everyone around the flag. I feel sorry for Americans. They had their freedom stolen at home by the Cheney Crew, while their kids, & other people's kids die for oil.

  • This guy is a fucking moron..

  • Well said!

  • The insentive in Communism is that scoiety benefits and in return for you labor your needs are filled by others services for example your a janitor and you clean bathrooms then you break your arm you get medical care and your needs are fuffiled. What Cenk is talking about is Socialism which the U.S.S.R Vietnam China have all been a kind of Socialism reaching towards Communism.

  • best way to start working towards getting everything better is to dismantle and tear apart the Federal Reserve.

  • Call it Democratic Capitalism!

  • Perhaps it would have been best not to help your banks at all?

  • Hey I like Jesse, but he is totally whacked and at the root, not a very smart of self aware man

  • @BarthBunzel But he ain't got time to bleed!

  • conspiracy theories are for weak minds who want tidy little stories instead of accepting that unplanned, unexpected things happen. Like Pearl Harbor attack, they should have figured it out, but they dropped the ball because at the root of it, no one in power foresaw that a mass carrier attack would succeed so well. Even after Pearl Harbor, when the war was open, the British sent their two best battleships out without air cover on the open ocean & still got sunk

  • honestly the world needs more people like Cenk

  • Remember reading about: The Dreyfus Affair, the Mafia, MKULTRA, Operation Mockingbird, Operation Northwoods, Watergate, The Iran-contra affair, Operation Snow White, Asbestos, and this list of conspiracy theories that turned out to be true could go on and on. It's not a question but fact that the Federal Reserve is fraudulent, 911 has holes,UFO's are out there and Big Brother is behind the scene. The real question is when are you going to stop believing it's just a theory and not fact? Peace.

  • What I don't get is why don't people take the word conspiracy seriously? In a court of law you can get life in prison for conspiracy. For example if a person is caught with a significant amount of drugs that person can get more time if he's found guility of the conspiracy to sell.

  • I've been preaching that for a while now, THE SYSTEM is broken. The monitary system does not work for everybody.

  • First question should be: What do the words "conspiracy theory" mean?

    When a cop investigates a murder case, he follows circumstantial evidence.

    When someone else investigates 9/11 for example, he does the same, but it's called a conspiracy theory. When it's called conspiracy theory, which is a burdened word, then something strange happens to peoples minds.

    In fact these words are a wrong designation, because all you do, is to follow circumstantial evidence to find out the truth.

  • @Lintflas The next questions should be: Why do most people react so strange on the words "conspiracy theory"? Maybe they don't know that anything is possible? Maybe they don't want to believe that something secret happens? Maybe they fear the idea, that a selfish elite rules this world in the background? Maybe they want to believe their daily news tells the whole truth, so they don't have to use their own brain?

    Just free your mind and think for yourself. Don't let other people think for you.

  • @Lintflas

    J. Edgar Hoover- "The individual is handicapped by coming face-to-face with a conspiracy so monstrous he cannot believe it exists. The American mind simply has not come to a realization of the evil which has been introduced into our midst. It rejects even the assumption that human creatures could espouse a philosophy which must ultimately destroy all that is good and decent."

  • @iRyaan

    Well said, and actually it's our governments who always put up a smokescreen, and everyone who tries to find out what's really going on gets marked as stupid conspiracy theorist. This is how the whole thing turns upside down.

  • @Lintflas

    That's what I've been doing, yet when I hear NWO, I think of the Last People to tell me about it who told me that the "Illuminati is constructing super-humans to fly around in black helicopters and observe out everyday activities to make sure we obey the NWO"... Just goes to show, don't open your mind too much buddy ;)

  • @Lintflas Right on! Exept of course in case of peole telling you to think for for yourself! In that case the rule doesn't appliy, right? Because those people do just that... they think for you. To be honest= OF COURSE there are things going on that most people do not know about. But do you think that if you expose all these things they won't just pop up with a different face? Talking about freeing your mind and such... what the f... does that even mean?

  • Mabye I am ignorant to this but I just want to have a nice life with normal everyday happiness for my 70-80 somewhat years on this planet. I do not really give a sh... if some people have the need to be richer than others in their lifetime. In the end everybody goes down the same way so just make the best out of it. And the so called selfish elite will always be there and keep being replaced every few years. So go ahead... fight!

  • And then wait until the people that supportet you slowly turn into the same jerks you fought against.

    Give me food, place to live and little problems and hardship. And help others where you can to achive the same. That is far more importent than worrying about any big bad people that may or may not be the cause of all evil... I am trying hard not to laugh at that thought...

    Cheers from Holland!

  • you want balance! get rid of the fed! the govt. should print the money,not bankers! He who makes the money makes the rules!

  • What is amazing is that a vast majority of supposedly "rational" debunkers still cite the plane impacts as a major factor in the WTC1+2 collapses, this after the official has long since abandoned the position as untenable from an engineering perspective.

    As far as I am concerned "skeptic" for most debunkers simply mean "I think G.W. Bush was a stand up guy". In truth, they have little interest in objective reality, only their myopic dilettante a priorisms.

  • @DarkwingScooter Funny how none of the hundreds of demolitions people needed for the so called controlled demolition ever came forward or were even spotted. Also, how many skyscrapers have suffered a similar plane crash yet didn't collapse, You have no base to compare it to.

  • @BarthBunzel Think about each part of your comment rationally. Just for a moment don't think as an American citizen but as a human being with a rational brain.

    Each one of your questions has simple answers historically speaking and in engineering terms. But you need to be realistic and think critically, rather than accepting the most superficially plausible explanation just because it satisfies your need for a feeling of apparent security.

  • I love how he didn't mention 9/11

  • damn, he's smarter than i thought

  • Some people just completely miss the point and split hairs over semantics.

  • And does Lordteren3 not realize that the Indian Wars took place after George Washington had been president? -_-

  • I wonder if it could ever be possible to make a seperation of Business and State?

  • Anyone who says that the U.S. wiped out the native americans is stupid. The U.S. did not. the Spanish, English, French, etc. did. The U.S. didn't even exist for years after the settlement of the Americas

  • @Lordteren3 the english became the U.S........idiot!!!!

  • @1454LOU I hope by that you mean the U.S. gained its independence from British rule. The US has always been comprised of all kinds of Europeans, French, English, Irish, Scottish, etc. etc. etc.

  • @Lordteren3 Actually, they simply carried on with the genocide after independence.

  • I liked the title to this video because I detest conspiracy nutjobs but then I saw it was the "Young turks", and Cenk is a leftist so, his lies about the true things all the time, so forget listening to him.....

  • In The old days, were there any conspiracies? You don't think 9/11 or jfk was a conspiracy? Cenk, you are something else

  • notice how apologetic and finessed he has to be to EXCUSE his view, does he have something other " I THINK" how about some facts to back up his idiocy? He just explained a conspiracy in detail and said it doesn't exist THIS IS REDICULOUS Isn't this the idiot who said you are not allowed to say anything about Obama until after 9/11

  • Which right wing talk show host says we shouldn't regulate the banks?

  • Spot on!

  • Every other country in the developed world has the system Cenk is proposing, Everyone outside America knows that a civilised society contains at least some socialistic elements - in fact, at the moment America already has plenty of socialism: libraries, fire departments etc' - but since the cold war Americans seem to believe that the word socialism is somehow synonymous with evil. Being against socialism or socialistic elements to capitalism is effectively the same as being against civilisation.

  • @tangent272 I don't disagree, but that sounds like a slippery slope argument.

  • @TheFifthApes

    And that's a problem becuase..?

  • @tangent272 you consider the "establishment" civilized?i don't think we are ciilized when we still need police and governments,man is not civilized yet....and the blame goes to the sick society wich teaches you to be competitive,so all life becomes just survival."civilization" teaches you to be eficient,not smart...because smart people coulnd't go to war...

  • @H0pSc

    There are degrees of civilisation.

    I agree we won't be truly civilised until we can live together in real peace and where genuine indevidual self actualisation is finally made possible by provision of all lesser needs by true co-operation.

    However, in the interum I'll settle for the ballance moving a couple of notches away from dog eat dog, law of the jungle, survival of the meanest and moving instead towards the kind of world we both want to see.

  • @tangent272 True. Socialism is necessarily part of society. The two share the same root word. Society is a group that pools resources to form a community. The root word of community is commune, the same as the root word of communism. A civilization cannot exist without communal (social) resources such as laws, rights, rules, taxes, and mechanisms to enforce those rules, laws, and rights. Without community standards and some sort of a social contract, it does not meet the definition of a society.

  • @xJoeEDangerouslyx

    Brilliantly put, you've pointed out some new ideas. Thanks for posting and I hope you don't mind if I pass on your thoughts here and there.

  • @tangent272 Most people agree with you, as do I, but the problem is Randian type ideologues who are obsessed with the idea of total laissez-faire capitalism and to heel with these kinds of services. They need to be kept in check politically, and as properly domesticated as any other aggressive ideology.

  • butt secks

  • Jesse for President

  • Love it.

  • You know IMO I consider Capitalism as an ideal balance for an economic system. The two factors I consider extreme would be Communism and Aristocracy.

  • That doesn't make sense, either economically or politically.

  • In a way it does if you think about it, Communism is flatlining the rich and the poor at the same class level with too much government control whereas an Aristocracy basically means the rich get richer and the poor get poorer left uncheck as a result of virtually no government regulation.

  • @Coraxuss I see what you mean, but I would say you can't really compare aristocracy, which is a form of government, and capitalism, which is an economic system. I think you could argue that Communist regimes resemble an aristocratic structure, with the privileged bureaucracy on top and the rest down below, even though the goal in theory is equality.

  • Well, imagine this. One system is a totalitarian state controlling all properties putting almost every citizens on the same social class boat (albeit it technically eliminates all classes).

    Another system almost lacks any form of political state leaving private citizens to govern based on stark social classes with virtually no middle class at all.

    I know these examples seem crud, but wouldn't you agree that these two factors are opposites of eachother?

  • @Coraxuss yep, thats what cenk just said in teh video though.

  • As for common traits, I would imagine it's almost common knowledge that anyone or any groups in particular in power whether or not they hold any public offices are likely to have control of much of a nation's wealth to do as they see fit at the expense of those they rule over.

  • Now as for capitalism, it tends to have some of the opposite traits of both communism and aristocracy. An ideal capitalistic system is having more or less the sharing power of both government and the people which allows a diverse number of social classes to be created, not just two or one. And unlike the other two systems, people can choose what class to enter in without being forced into one specific class.

  • @Coraxuss

    America does not have capitalism.  It has fascism disguised as capitalism. Capitalism has to be regulated to work.

  • @captcrais101

    Actually, Capitalism in America is broken, but the one seeking to take advantage of this plight are the wealthy fatcats of Wall Street and the politicians they control, mostly Republictards who want to establish a fascist regime. But the only obstacle standing in their way is Obama and they'll do anything to bring him down, including painting him as a Commie-loving Marxist.

  • @Coraxuss

    Obstacle? Obama isn helpung the fat cats. He is as owned by them as Bush was. He is not a communist!!! IDIOT! Remeber Obama has golman sachs controling the treasury department. Monsanto owns Agriculture. Hillary is a corpatist bitch. Rahm is just as bad and owned by AIPAC. Obama reissued the patriot act and is advancing the Afghan war. Get a clue. Both sides are fascist.

  • @captcrais101

    I NEVER said he was a communist MORON! They did! I mentioned before that in the day and age, it's about voting for the lesser of two evils. You can list all the controversial issues and rumored scandals about Obama till you're blue in the face and I won't deny there are some shady flaws about his characters and agenda, but right now, you're far off better with him as president than any other candidates. Cause God knows the Republictards would have killed the planet already.

  • Damn ads. When the Internets become just like TV, everyone's gonna do something else.

  • you didnt state your Opinion Because

    FAT BOY FEARS JESSE

  • omg fuck adds

  • Great video man, if you want to see a movie that will blow your mind type into youtube old world secrets the omega project codes

  • "The iron law of oligarchy".

    Yes it CAN happen to you, and it has, and they used "conspiracy theory" rhetoric and blind patriotic fervor to do it, and Americans ate it up because they were promised unfettered consumption because of it.

    They got it.

    But the devil wants his due, and Bear Sterns was the price.

    I think if this is the end of the story America and the world made out quite well out of the whole affair. But if Chimerica folds the country will be in a world of hurt.

    Good speech.

  • He has mostly everything right except America is a Republic not a Democracy.

  • Ermm... that's just being pedantic. It depends on what element of the government you're talking about. Votes are conducted democratically, but the country is a republic - yes.

  • Excellent speech Cenk, and some great posts in the comments section for once.

    I always thought that US was owned by corporations, but never knew why. Cenk's "Best interest" perspective comes very close. This also makes me worry too. Corporate Interests may be the one tool which will bring down US from its superpower status and help China in its rise.

  • C'mon guys... I love your show, but again with the title >_>

    All conspiracy theories are real... I think you meant "true".

  • American capitalism = lowkey corporate socialism.

  • @ tiffanynem

    No it doesn't.

    American capitalism = capitalism.

    I love how Americans are so badly obsessed with capitalism being a flawless ideology that even the smartest of them cannot acknowledge it's flaws.

    The magical free market, invisible hand, capitalism is a fantasy. Every time capitalism is implemented it turns it corporatism.

    In capitalism, capital = power. Sooner or later a small group of people will accumulate enough capital to have power over the rest.

  • @Seleucus84

    Hold your horses, cowboy. Never said I'm a fan of capitalism.

  • The invisible hand of the market = Xenu.

  • Corporate conspiracies are only 1 facet.

    Its not all about the money with these people. Money is a way they get others to go along with them.

    In addition to the corporate conspiracies, you also have Crusader conspiracies.

    Yes the Military Industrial Complex makes money from it, but that is not the only reason.

    Perfect example, Blackwater.

    Erik Prince was doing "Gods work" just like Bush was.

    We even have Generals that replacing Generals that are educated by the finest Jesuit Universities.

  • I like this side of Cenk! lol

  • the free market isn't free when corporations own everything.

  • @ robertosixninesix

    The free market creates corporations.

  • The bible was forced on the slaves by the Romans...anyone who was smart enough to oppose it were killed!

    The bible tells the slaves that their kingdom is not on earth..but in heaven...this helped give the slaves false hope..and inner power to feel good!

    While the upper rich enjoyed their heaven on earth..at the expense of the slaves.

    Why do you think churches pay no taxes...they keep the people happy while getting screwed by their govt!

    TRUTH!

  • By the Byzantines I think you mean.  Technically the eastern Roman empire but for all practical purposes it became a whole seperate civilization. Rome proper kept with their polytheistic system(Mars, Neptune, etc...)

  • Not really... The slaves were attracted by the whole "meek shall inherit the earth" thing... It was not until later with the acceptance of the religion by Constantine that Christianity lost its underground status, until then it was persecuted.

  • Mathew 6:6. Go pray in the closet.

  • Clean government; oxy moron.

  • Cenk, you should really listen to yourself. You say there is no conspiracy that it is only self selection and then you say there is class warfare and it has been going on for decades. Cenk, you are very convoluted.

  • 9/11 truth ends wars

  • wow and people think glenn beck is a conspiracy nut, listening to cenk's numbskull diatride of "class warfare" and "socialism is a perfect system" is like hes reading straight from the pages of karl marx or adolf hitler (both founding fathers of progressivism) if you people are so paranoid that you think every corporation is run by devils who want kill millions to make 1 more dollar of profit why dont liberals just leave this "horrible country" AMERICA LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT
