Cody Willard uses the word “fascist” way too promiscuously. I think “irresponsible” would be a more accurate word to to describe the partisan system of the United States.
I've met this guy in real life and he is a jerk. Looking at these comments I guess he wasn't a very nice guy to other people either. Its also annoying that he spends half his waking life promoting himself.
I happen to agree with Cody that I'm getting tired of the Republocrats in Washington. If the TEA Party can keep itself from getting hijacked from the likes of Gingrich and Palin, we may have a shot at taking the country back.
Cody Willard; the 'prophet' who claims to have called Apple in 2002 and has owned it since....uhuh....and who thinks that Apple is gonna be a $2tn business and MSFT a $1tn business. Sure, Cody keep on telling us which stocks you rode up from their lows to their high...after the fact! Now that I think off it; I told everybody to buy Standard Oil stock in 1801, before John D. Rockefeller was even born...and I have owned it since.
'bailouts = fascism' seems a far stretch for someone claiming to keep it 'real'. "the definition of fascism is government and big business getting in bed together"??? really? How about this instead: fascism is a radical, authoritarian nationalist political ideology...
Hope that Cody and his followers can keep calm and not resort to violence. If you are right and make one misstake we'll be flooded with different police organisations in no time.
I see that you have bought into the media hype that tea party folks are in love with guns and a hair trigger away from violence. Just like Jon Stewart did in this clip the main stream media has selectively painted us that way. Cody pointed this out very clearly yet rather than examine what you believe now you are parroting what others like Nacy Pelosi and Michael Steele want you to think about the tea partiers.
I'm a huge fan of cody, stewart's a jerk and the more I weatch happy hour I get the feeling Rebecca's also pretty liberal. I've lost a lot of respect for her, she's always making sarcastic snipes at cody and ron paul. I can deal with eric though
"Fight the fascism?" Assuming for just a moment that some Murdoch lackey didn't write that line for him, look at the perspective. He wasn't howling when Uncle Sam made Goldman Sachs whole, to the last penny. The tea party movement started when Rick Santelli had an on-air meltdown because there was talk of halting foreclosures. Bailing out Goldman is fine, helping homeowners is fascism? Cody Willard is a ten cent hack, and his protestations of criticising Republicans is cheap cover. Go read books
What books should I read? Apparently you don't understand what fascism is, let me give a brief explanation. When government get into bed with big business. You do not bail out companies because they are too big to fail. Let them fail someone else will come in and put together the pieces and turn it profitable. Its called capitalism, not everyone can win. Goldman posted over 3 Billion profit, did the homeowners get that? Oh and the Tea Parties started with Ron Paul. Turn off Main Media and think.
Rick Santelli and Cody Willard didn't have on-air meltdowns because Goldman was getting bailed out. That was fine with them. What they melted down about was the idea that the little people might get help from government. When government helps the little people, that's not fascism. Cody Willard needs to get a job and a haircut.
Ur spewing misinformation. If they government wants to help out the people it will cut spending and taxes. It could have bailed out us instead of the companies. You are living in a dream world. Show we some sort of proof that they had a meltdown because the little people were getting help from the government. And how is the government helping us, they are protecting the Fed, which is inflating the dollar, and stealing our savings. They are taxing us to death. I am sorry but where your head at?
If it wants to help out rich people it will cut taxes. It's not a mystery what these parties are and who each represents. Did you watch Santelli's meltdown - the Gucci-shoe Che Guevara leading his army of derivative trader revolutionaries on CNBC? He didn't freak out because Uncle Sam bailed out Goldman, he freaked because there was talk of trying to halt foreclosures for a while. Santelli called anyone facing foreclosure a "loser". He didn't call Goldman that.
Taxing us to death? What planet do you live on? The top marginal tax rate in 1980 was like 69%. Todays top rate is 35% and you have to earn $373,000 to pay it. Hear that? It's the world's smallest violin playing for the $373,000 and up crowd paying at 35% rate. Your hogwash might go over in the sticks, but I've been around the block a few times.
U don't feel the tax squeeze yet? ..you will. I feel prices going up in everything, not to mention inflation, the hidden tax..What is the todays dollar worth compared to the dollar in 1913? Thank you end of argument. Wish I was wrong.. I truly do.. but I am not. Research the Federal Reserve bank and what they have done with the dollar. Put $100 in the bank in 1913 and see what it would be worth today. Explain the stealing of my savings as not a tax on my wealth and I will forfeit my argument.
Average inflation rate over the last ten years was lower than it was in the 1980s when your hero was in office. Besides a little inflation is good because everybody is deeply in debt and they need to pay interest plus principal out of a pool of money which only represents principal loaned by banks, but that's a long subject. Congrats on being rich. I owe a lot of money on my house, and I'll be glad to see some inflation. If you are rich, you pay lower taxes than at any time in US history.
The top is 39% and the incumbent administration wants to raise it to 45%, you wanna pay that much?
And 250,000 is who gets the top bracket.
Plus whatever state, county, property or sales taxes you have to pay.
In California someone would pay 39% plus 9.3% state equaling 48.3 % of their income in taxes alone.
Now imagine those people having to fork over 45 plus 9.3 which means 54.3 % of their income goes to income tax. The violin needs to be played your lazy ass whining, you'll never EARN that.
You don't pay a uniform income tax rate on all income. You pay a lower rate on the first sum up to the second tax bracket, then a higher rate on the next brackets worth and so on. Taxes were much higher for the top bracket than today, and the rich lived quite well then. A society where a tiny elite makes all the money and everyone else is desperate is just counting the days until the guillotine comes out. Read your history.
The top tax bracket had been sited and i simply showed the true numbers of it.
Taxes were to high then and are too high now and creeping back upward.
You risk jobs when you squeeze employers then wonder why no one is hiring.
That "elite" pays 95% of present taxes, pick up your share, my taxes are to high as well, no one should be paying more than 15% regardless of what they make
Taxes for the rich are not too high now, and they weren't too high then. Rich people were living fine in the 1950s and 60s. Today the top 1% has more wealth than the bottom 95% combined. That topheavy distribution is risking the guillotine. It has happened before.
Who are you too say what is too high? Pretty arbitrary assertion, who are you to say what is rich? A society where commerce and capital are taxed into exile and job cuts is what you have at present and then you look around and wonder why. You tie employers hands. A more proportionate tax where a big pie is baked with smaller cuts being taxed throughout.
It is outrageous that 5% of the population pay a majority of the taxes and that over half pay none at all.
The debt problems of today and bloated government trace back to the 1960s, we reap the consequences of failed spending and taxing policies that have been eroding the economy for 40 years. if you really want to take your 'good ol' days" argument to its conclusion, this country had no federal income tax until 1913 and did just fine, in fact Woodrow Wilson feared that the tax would ever exceed 2%! It has gone off the charts in its absurdity.
Shows how much you know. We actually held tea partys for Ron Paul in 2008. The tea parties have been co-opted by the establishment masquerading as conservatives. We were fighting the facists then, and we are doing it now. END THE FED!!
They aren't helping homeowners.
You have a poor grasp on the reality of the situation, your comment is misguided and frivolous on it's face. So quit your divisive partisan hackery and quit playing the left/right hockey match!
This kid is a Libertarian and a smart one at that. Not that I agree with him. But it's the first time I see somebody to properly stand up to Jon Stewart.
ameriKa is currently under four national emergencies and has been in a declared emergency since 1918 when Congress refused to repeal the 'Trading with the Enemy Act' though WWI had ended (repealed 1973). FDR expanded that act to include declared national emergencies resulting in him and presidents since the ability to make laws, create agencies and deploy troops through executive order bypassing congress and Constitution. That is how the elitist destroyed the US and how we became socialist.
Yeah, this guy is really against both parties when he said that... riiiiight. A real libertarian, this guy. If he is claiming that we are living in a fascist regime, then who is he calling a fascist? The leader, maybe? Stewart was right.
You even know what true facism means? Not just the murdering perversion of Hitler? Obama fired the ceo of a PRIVATE company. The government owns buisnesses. Thats pure facism.
much of TDS's comedy is based 5-sec clips taken out of context. nothing new. Cody took Jon's jab at Fox News' reporting personally. Can't say that I blame him though. made him look like an ass.
