  • "...All you need to do to to change the world is get out your door in the morning; stand up in your place and time" @ 3:34

  • Tom Morello is a very smart and well spoken man. He is the kind of leader we need in this world.

  • FUCK the elite

  • If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably isn't a duck in today's world.

  • RONPAUL 2012....Put a start to the end and get off your ass and get involved. Look at all of us sitting on our asses getting fat off the system. DO SOMETHING, GET INVOLVED...

  • la tiene clara, no es wn!!!!

  • I wonder what he think of Chris Cornell playing at Obama's fundraiser events. Tom said at That metal show they still talk every now and then. Maybe not anymore.

  • This is why I am voting Ron Paul. Oh well. The banker gangsters of the FED and IMF and World Bank. Yep Fund both sides and put more people into debt. Yep and I know the key words will go to the people who read all of the net.

  • I feel like a d-bag asking but what is "RT"?

  • @SupremeTweakStrike Russia Today

  • @SupremeTweakStrike RT is the first Russian 24/7 English-language news channel which brings the Russian view on global news.

    :D

  • Ha , I was thinking the occupiers should hire some"blackwater type" agency to protect them from the pigs.

  • This is still going on? Yes Rage against the machine, RAGE RAGE. its pretty easy to do so when the machine has given you millions of dollars for playing guitar. Fuckin hypocrite

  • @fiveo21 they spent most of the money made on charities and fighting for their cause. You need to learn to look things up before you run your mouth.

  • @fiveo21 So because Rage Against the Machine made money off their music they are hypocrites? You think this money came from the machine? No it came from the people. The machine only took part of that money as something we call taxes.

  • Lovin' the mono speaker only :|

  • Tom Morello For President!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • He makes good points.

  • RT is my news. when I want to see what ideology the rest of the world is watching I'll watch CNN. when I want to see something completely retarded I'll watch Fox news.

  • @ThePeterKrpan My head hurts from reading the intense insights you have expressed here. Have you told others about your findings? Typically I would require someone to cite a source for such a declaratory statement, but this is so compelling and simple an answer that I simply must take it at your word! Of course, he's black, how could I have missed that obvious factor?! The cultural Marxism and the libtards, how did I not see it before!? Sir, you have opened my eyes to the truth. Thank you.

  • @pbstl747 yea keep watching fox news

  • Most of the people saying crap about Tom Morello are probably cops. lmao

  • just lost all respect for this guy

  • fuyck blackwater and fuck morello too we native americans are ready for this shit to go down, we got ammo we got our traditions fuck it let's go motherfuckers.

  • We need rid of the fed.

    

  • @pbstl747, you should see what Jay-Z is doing. he's actually selling t-shirts with "Occupy All Streets" on them for $20 a pop.

    a real movement, is when people stop "supporting" and "depending" on the system. Stop, for example shopping at malls, wal-mart, Mcdonalds. if you get paid a sh**ty wage, then quit and demand more of what your worth as an American and turn off the damn T.V. and talk to people in general. be more social and instead of relying on stereotypes. it's really simple.

  • Morello and RATM are millionaires.

    They are part of the 1% who exploit the "radical" sentiments for profit.

  • RATM should play a free concert at zucotti park!

  • Tom Morello: Stop Support Cuba Dictatorship!!!!!

  • Blackwater USA, a private military company, one of the three private companies in the US Department of State. Blackwater may have some bad publicity but we cannot assume that they're not on our side.

  • @14BLUEYEDEVIL88 Yep, we are talking about only something like 100 or so people who happen to be Jewish.

    How many people have Jewish descent ?

    Are we anti-semitic ?

    No, people need to do the maths and grow up.

  • @jesseVenturanotaSeaI

    it would be awesome if you were shot in the head.

  • @worldmayhem I can guarantee that in person you would be nice and polite, you little bitch.

  • @jesseVenturanotaSeaI

    I guarantee in person you would have your pals to have your back, because you would never fight me alone.

    Ten years of martial arts, you loser.

  • @worldmayhem LOL, Last I checked .45 acp wins that argument.

  • @jesseVenturanotaSeaI

    be it known that I recorded that threat.

  • @worldmayhem Be it known that you are a pussy.

  • @worldmayhem HEY, im a black shoe lace too!

  • @jesseVenturanotaSeaI and what the fuck have you done?

  • @BrandonRolfe15 Including your mother?

  • ABC will edit this and spin it.

    RT will air it uncensored.

  • @acuna13 , exactly my thoughts too

  • @acuna13 err well derp, because RT is a state tv channel and it doesn't have limited air time. RT doesn't have to pay for ads and it can afford to air stuff uncensored.

  • is he channeling ? He sounds like Bashar!

  • To all who want change, would you rather give up everything or let our government take everything?

  • guitar god!

  • "After we cast our ballot into the void every four years..." Exactly.

  • yea right arab springs being ruled by military and they are worst off now than before! people beware!!!!!!!!

  • /watch?v=ZPWH5TlbloU

  • Wow... very cool... never knew who this guy was before now...

  • @LouieDaProtectionist...which regulations have been stripped smartguy? Oh, and when? I won't get into a battle with someone who calls names instead of sourcing points of argument. So again, tell me what regulations specifically you refer to? Open my eyes to what exactly?

  • @geffel, actually yes. Most of you have no fucking clue. Most of you voted for Obama, how'd that turn out for ya? The rest voted for McCain and it wouldn't have gone any better. Anyone that chose those two should stay home. Anyone who doesn't really care and is just there because their freinds think its important, should definitely leave. I've been an activist for 10 years and most of you haven't given two shits so why all of a sudden? All of you doing this because its "cool" should leave

  • great answer about the fed, it's as good as the person who runs it.

    all great movements start with many grievances, it becomes focused when those grievances are weighed. this is not a sprint, it's a marathon.

    it's good to have you back left.

  • ENDING THE FED is the most pressing issue of all. I like Rage but never did care for their politics.

  • This guy is a puppet trying to derail a grass root movement, He said some truth but refuse to go to the source of the problem, all the FED BANKS which create money out of thin air and then charge interest on it. a total disgrace. It is the government job to print the money within the productive capacity of the country. Bank don't produce anything yet they charge interest upon the productive capacity of the PEOPLE.

  • @Louaner you think he would have though right? He was in Rage

  • The Federal Reserve is small potatoes? They print the WORLD RESERVE CURRENCY. Everything is smaller than the FED. Just look at your dollar bill, is THE UNITED STATES at the top? No. It says FEDERAL RESERVE NOTE. They perpetuate the myth of money. Everything else economically is small potatoes. Go back to your guitar, Tom.

  • @WTFukinshit

    Yeah we should all just stay at home and do nothing.

  • @WTFukinshit it is small potatoes. you're a dumbarse libertarian who doesn't understand WHY the private Fed can print a fiat money endlessly. it's becaue banking regulations have been stripped. stop being a dumbarse Ron Paul sheeple. open your eyes dumbass

  • Comment removed

  • @LouieDaProtectionist um yea, WTF guy pwned you. You know...there's a cartoon to explain what the Federal Reserve does and it's history and how one of its goals was to keep ignorant people like you from finding out the truth of the people who control the Fed. It will absolutely shock you.

  • What an incredibly reasonable man. If only more people could be this reasonable! You don't have to even agree with shit, but to be patient, kind, and intelligently express your viewpoint out of humility and out of a hope for humanity.... that's unheard of. What an incredibly reasonable man. He's awesome.

  • people dont seem to understand that morello is against the entire political/economic system and asuch saying "he should be president" is against his belief system as he'd never want to president and doesnt believe one should exist

  • oh man, id vote for this guy as president.

  • If the FED was abolished, the printing of banknotes and the creation of debt would cease. > So abolish the FED.

    @MrElementalone @DREDQ @bigollameo @doedacker @017160 @shantih433

  • Isn't he the most energetic person? You can almost see the energy surging beneath his skin.

  • Citibank just posted their 3rd quarter profits: $4.8 Billion & those clowns received a $45 Billion dollar bailout from US on 12/2010...WTF?!?!?!?

  • Hugo Weaving is in disguise, standing in the back hah.

  • @DREDQ the guy with the red hair/beard ?

  • killing the FED is a big blow to those folk's morello.

  • He should be the philosopher king.

  • The FED IS NOT SMALL POTATOES!!

  • Why the fuck isn't he president? 

  • @timmah638 ~ he can't be bought.

  • @timmah638 Why would you want him to be? Presidents have no power. The rich elite do.

  • Know your enemy TOM.....END THE FED!

  • @dubster2k I know but not many do, they also moved their base of operations to United Arab Emirates. Guess they won't be paying taxes on their war profits either. 

  • Burn The Fuckers. All these Fuckers that are asking what are the crimes expect that they will get treated differently and favored.

    Burn Down The Corporations Burn Down The Banks Burn Down The Bastards That That Support These Ranks.

    They are not in our interest they have never been They don't give a damn about us human beings.

    Evil favors no one.

  • Burn The Fuckers. All these Fuckers that are asking what are the crimes expect that they will get treated differently and favored.

    EEEvil favours no one.

  • @teslaglobal Seriously????!!

    check out who are thay this people

  • He's full of sh_________End the Fed

  • end the fed

  • and don't look for a hero in Ron Paul either.... he's just CONTROLLED Opposition >

    A new system MUST BE put in place where a Presidential candidate HAS to SIGN A CONTRACT stating that they MUST take CONCRETE STEPS towards making good on their campaign promises or else they are FIRED,

    otherwise, they can simply promise you the Moon, just to get into office !

    Ron Paul and al his idealistic talk is no exception !!

  • The people he is talking about own and run your private Fed reserve they are far more central to the problem than wall st,wall st is small potatoes compared to the Fed.The only candidate running for President that is truly different and has a 30 year record of always voting within the constraints of the constitution is Ron Paul,if you want real change vote for him.

  • The people he is talking about own and run your private Fed reserve they are far more central to the problem than wall st,wall st is small potatoes compared to the Fed.

  • What a great guy! Tom for president!

  • With regard to these so called knee-jerk "Communists":

    Had they lived during the "Golden Era of Communisim" (i.e. while Stalin was in power) more likely than not, they would have been shipped off to the Soviet gulags scattered throughout the far reaches of Siberia / Eastern Russia, -or- would have been forced to dig canal systems / lay railroad tracks that went absolutely nowhere because Stalin wanted them built.

    Then, and only then, would they wisen up to the farcity of "Communism".

    :D

  • They are kind of like the Jesse Jacksons or Al Sharptons of the world. They appear at opportune moments that they exploit to their favour. Sort of like "ambulance chasers".

    Otherwise, they go back to griping / grousing about "THE MAN" and "THE SYSTEM" and how "Mao was right" or "Che was misunderstood" or blah-blah-blah.

    Too bad they didn't grow up during the Chinese government's "Great Leap Forward" or the "Cultural Revolution".

  • THEN they'd get a taste of REAL Communism - backbreaking labor; widespread famine conditions; Red Guard groups watching you for any signs of "thought crimes" or "resistance to the Dear Leader".

    Same goes for Stalin and his institution of the "Great Purge".

    At least 1,710,000 people were arrested.

    At least 1,440,000 people were sentenced.

    At least 724,000 people were sentenced to death.

    At least two million people were sentenced by courts for common crimes - 800,000 to the gulag camps.

  • Then have someone ask these guys how they would feel about the grand idea of Communism after having been (if they were lucky enough to have survived) forced at gunpoint to dig ditches, fell trees, move stones, lay roads and railway lines, build dams, etc. WITHOUT the use of modern (or even antiquated) equipment.

    They'd wisen up very, very quickly.

    Their soft guitar plucking fingers would become calloused very quickly after wielding an axe or shovel 14 hours a day in all climes.

    ;-)

  • @trollcrusher242 That isn't REAL Communism, it's how failed communist governments have worked in the past......

  • Comment removed

  • @trollcrusher242

    You just don't get it do you?

    Perhaps you should just stick to the Fox News forums where everyone will agree with your ignorance.

  • @geffel

    And you are whom? And why should I bother even listening to you.

    Did you read my comments above regarding Communism? I presume you didn't or weren't / aren't analytical enough to face the facts regarding Communism.

    Tom Morello is a self avowed Communist. Period.

    He is just showing his mug here at this Occupy Wall Street demonstration in order to espouse his Communist ideals. Very slick. Very sneaky.

    Once again, *if* he were living back during Stalin's time, he'd be in a gulag.

  • The FED is a small problem? SMALL PROBLEM???

  • I want Rage Against the Machine to bring out a new album.

  • BRAVO!!!!!!!

  • The Fed IS the Bankster system

  • Very interesting times we live in right now.

  • Tom Morello is an idiot! Enough said. Harvard should do its best to distance itself from this guy.

  • @buddyboy75 Fuck You. Your an Idiot!!

  • @buddyboy75 Who are you?

  • End the Fed.

  • That wop is a commie fag! He and the globalists need to burn dammit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Ending the Fed is small potatoes? Foolish statement. The Fed is the power source for the oligarchy. It is the root cause from which grows all the ills Morello is recognizing.

  • @doedacker

    But how is it the case that our modern Plutocracy is powered solely by the Fed. I mean, isn't it true that many of those in the privileged caste of America already enjoyed the favoritism of friendly government connections and networks without the assistance of the Fed? The corrupting influence of money and it's purchasing of political patronage is somewhat remote from the issues of the Federal Reserve's monetary policy. The Fed is an issue, but I don't see it as the central issue.

  • @bigollameo Good thoughts. But I'm not talking policy. I'm talking the original power-grab, wresting the Constitutional money-creation power from Congress, gaining the ability to create it from thin air & saddling us with a usury system. Congress would spent money into existence. The Fed (a private entity) loans it into existence, so all you can do is grow debt. The root insanity builds from there--i.e. putting taxpayers on the hook for trillions in derivatives fraud debt they've created.

  • @doedacker

    If the Fed was placed under the Dept. of the Treasury, and the printing of money came under the power of congress, do you think that national/international affairs would change significantly? Congress could simply choose to print money that the Fed would print.

  • @bigollameo Once the Fed succeeded with the initial fraud of grabbing the money-creation power, they had to give themselves cover by owning media & politicians. Groups like CFR & Trilateral Commission gave them a way to screen who fills key positions, ensuring they'd play ball. So their methods of control have to be understood & dealt with, but money-creation is what puts them in the driver's seat. Internationally, it's the same pattern: central banks colluding with political leaders (cont'd)

  • @bigollameo (cont'd) using debt (most of which is fraudulent) to gain power through manufactured crisis. It's the NWO scheme. Our foreign policy is deranged because it's not about U.S.'s interests, but NWO's. We've been hijacked. Some OWS folks are saying, "Restore Glass-Steagall." That bill'd be a huge step forward. It destroys the derivatives fraud engine. Wipes out the speculative debt. Liquidates the too-big-to-fail banks. Has 46 co-sponsers at this point. Not all in government are bad.

  • "movement that has to be reckened with????" there's is like at most a 1000 people in these locations...weak

  • Also loving the Industrial Workers of the World cap

  • "not yet the UK"?? We had 500,000 people on the streets of London marching against the government

  • yet another self-described marxist fool.

  • @brooksbayne your an ignorant fool

  • END CIRCUMCISION.

  • Oh, now this dude is the official spokesman - - ok.

  • @NibiruLives actually he specifically states that he is a visitor, not a spokesperson. Q-tip much?

  • @EagerJohnny Tom just called - he said you're an hour late servicing him...best you forget about this sh!t here, and start making your rounds. Ask him to explain the meaning of tool to you.

  • He said it was small potatoes. There are bigger problems, such as corporate influence over government. He didn't say he supports the fed.

  • why can't someone fully understand the Fed and the banking system and be able to slam them and tell people, how the fed is owned by banks that control the interest rates and also give 40% of the money Obama needs to get in office and just go after them, how much power is that???? Too much, that is how much, they control America and the world, they don't care if the economy goes under, they are protected and they understand the game, they are going to gain assets from a collapse.That is crazy

  • Comment removed

  • If you ended the Fed, all you would have to worry about is inflation, if you ended the fed there would be no national debt, which is the root of the debt crisis and gives the banks all of the power.How is that not importent???

    End the Fed.

  • The fact he did not think that the Fed, which is owned and run by wall street was not a big deal, frankly makes be wonder what the hell use is it him even talking, if he can't even understand that then how is the root of the problem going to be fixed(the debt) when the only reason the national debt exists is because of these facts.That is the reason Libya had the lowest debt to GDP ratio in the world because there central bank was state owned and had no debt crisis, Europe and the U.S does

  • Comment removed

  • "You don't need a Harvard degree in political science to talk politics, but I have a Harvard degree in political science". excellent quote. so to everyone complaining about "idiot celebrities", try to consider that as well as being a badass guitarist, this is guy is smart and QUALIFIED. dont take the 'small potatoes' thing out of context, i think he is trying to say that the people need to work collectively and not expect president super-jesus to solve all their problems while they sit and wait!

  • damn! he can really speak

  • americans are pretty dumb, they never seem to realize that it's a global problem.

  • fucking awesome

  • "The blinders are off."

    People should be able to vote on every topic, never mind moronic parties or personalities.

  • @TeamLibertyExpress Then absolutely nothing would ever get done ever again for the rest of time.

  • I'm ashamed of our worship of our founding slave owners.. What's ur point??

  • The fed the bankers and the lobbys controling the american govt are the problem.

    Morello is just another celebrity who supports communism and the destruction of america through 3rd world immigration and mass socialism.

    The founders would be ashamed of people like him and his followers.

  • @ParasitesH8Truth OK you win. That was indeed the most retarded comment to date.

  • lol he said frankly

  • Wow, I'm not a big fan of RATM. Do have lot's of their music because I like it in general. But I'm very glad to hear it's not just a name and empty lyrics. :-)

    This is the kind of celebrity support OWS can use. Smart, educated people that the media just can't ignore and walk big circles around. Even if they themselves get called out for being the rats that they are. ;-P

  • @NeonGen2000 Use the big-media's own system of hype and celebrity cultism against them. And make them spread our message through truly talented and educated celebrities. They will never expect to meet a celebrity that will have half a brain about what is going on and will think he will just fling crap. Then they run in to someone like Tom Morello. :-)

  • Blackwater Mercenaries were sent to New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina.....many say Blackwater came to kill people... ...I honestly would not be surprised to see Blackwater and UN Troops killing Americans.

  • It will become exactly what King Juan Carlos wants and his Club of Rome who're controlling it. Do a study of the book called 'The First Global Revolution' by the Council of the Club of Rome and see whats happening right now.
