Does illegality equal immorality?

[bhxinfected]

This lady doesn't know shit.. heh.

[steve0281]

Hmmm. I wonder if she follows the Constitution. Heck! I wonder if she has even read it.

[TheAetherspeak]

Laws are all based in iniquity. In a nation whose defining motto is equality at all costs socialism is the only politic and the law itself is an affront to the system.

[Paulintheoh8]

Kantian instead of Keynesian... what?!?!?

I think she is just spitting out words just to sound smart. What a shame...

[janhelfeld]

@Paulintheoh8 Yes...

[rajy09]

She reminds me of my mom. so frustrating. Im laughing out loud.... glad I stumbled on this video.

[atchisrj1]

Illegality does not equate immorality.

[edgardusXII]

This woman is quite ignorant; for the Southern Confederacy fought over Jeffersonian Sovereignty, and not slavery (though it may have been a minor factor).

[EDTHEWATERGUY]

The will of the people LMAO,yeah right.

Like I wanted social security ,medicare,endless wars and taxation.

[Mruiz201]

This Lady Gets Pawned!

[miinyoo]

WOW! I wish I could represent her and shoot myself in the face!

[leafwatch]

Northern states also had laws that required returning escaped slaves to their "lawful masters."the U.S. has tons of bad laws such as prohibition of marijuana, raw milk and other peaceful choices.

[comanchio1976]

The stupid woman's all over the place. First she says that everything that is illegal is wrong, and accuses him of picking and choosing. Then in the next breath she said that it was ok to break the slavery law because she doesnt believe in it.

[failblorg]

all good points jan. i think that some corporations SHOULD pay people about 1 cent an hour or better yet put all jobs on a bidding frenzy. so the lowest common denominator on expected salary wins. think of it as a game show. Where instead of paying someone $2/hr i could get someone else to do that same job for less than 10cents an hour!! and since every man wants to survive and get food for his family he will do whatever he can to get that job!! Brilliant!!

i would also like more child labr

[savemyplaylist]

@failblorg What percent of jobs pay more than minimum wage?

[spitball123]

She can't seem to answer a single question.

[trung206]

that woman was pissed off! hahaha

this is too funny >.<

[PorscheAgain]

Thanks, Janet!!!!

[RiNSpy]

Listening to her speak is almost too painful.

[HaveAGingerAle]

This guy is awesome, but the scary thing - the world is full of sheep such as this "lady" who couldn't possibly think for themselves, let the government and a biased society make all the decisions for them, and they are our professionals, our lawyers, our "law enforcement officers", our CEO's, our politicians, etc. before this interview she must have thought to herself "my rebuttal is going to be we are a nation of laws". That was the extent of her thought process. Again - scary.

[eulercircles]

Did she just say, "We're talking more kantian now, not keynesian"? WTF does that even mean? Where do they find these idiots?

[jryan1971]

she's so confused. What a muddled mind

[loganachilles1982]

It's the people's fault for electing this Byrne person. She can't help being stupid and contradicting herself. It's illogical to hire someone to make laws for you who are themselves illogical. Better yet it's illogical to trust another person enough to make laws for you. If wishing was logical I'd wish we had a replublic instead of a democracy. It would at least be a slight improvement in conrolling our own fates.

[MoonMankkkkkk]

That reference to Kant almost sends chills down my spine.

[Paulintheoh8]

Man, she is pathetic... 

[thafix82]

Kantian and Keynesian? What the hell is she talking about?

[Powerhousera]

HaHaHa. This poor girl is being picked apart by a professional. She would be better off by just coming clean and surrendering to Jan. The more she fights the worse it gets.

[captainkerk1]

you are my hero not just for this video but for all of them

[Deadleader555]

Bureaucratic cunt!

[ScottcNehrer]

It is so disgusting what an elitist pig she is.

[NottsBenAllan]

lol that bish got OWNED

[alennna]

this is an awesome video i have seen it before .. but now it seems to have no audio any more .. just letting you know so that more people will have an opportunity to listen to your wisdom .. admire your work very much! thank you!

[janhelfeld]

i checked the audio. it is OK.

[LiberalVichy]

@janhelfeld

I have the audio problem too. My other youtube videos work fine. Maybe a strange format?

[Infomaniack]

I love the way he thinks, but he stopped short of the truth. I don't think that he has followed the reality of wage workers' situations through the industrial rev to today.

You can get far with pure thought, but I don't think that you can get all the way without history and relevant examples, testing, etc...

I don't think he is right about the minimum wage at all.

[zardozcs]

Keynsian vs. Kantian LOL two completely different subjects there. She doesn't know what she's talking about.

[aspiehler]

What a smug cow. I'm glad I hadn't just eaten.

[yesugi]

Did she vote to impeach Bill Clinton for suborning perjury? (Answer: no)

The South didn't "pass that law" about slavery. The law was the same law in the North.

Not just duplicitous. Stupid, and ignorant.

[capitalist4life]

She got only 1 term in congress. Thank god (and Jan).

[rockhuddy]

By convoluted way, and accepting the premise that laws represent the moral views of the people, illegality could equal immorality.

Of course we know that laws rarely represent the moral views of the people, and even when they do represent a majority of the people's views, there is always a minority that is harmed.

[Blackhalo325]

That woman left me completely speechless. I mean... what the hell lady?

[jryan1971]

She doesn't understand basic economics like supply and demand.

[fuzzywzhe]

Why can't she just own up?

"You know, you're right, I guess not always wrong to break a law."

Funny that people can't admit they're in error.

[czargwar]

I cannot fucking believe this bitch

[Giwen]

I have encountered many people with the same view that she has and many more in Jan's movies but I think that Jan should be more professional.

[libertarianjury]

This woman should not be allowed access to sharp utensils. How does she make it to work? (Oh, that's right, she doesn't, she works for congress.)

[libertarianjury]

This woman is a complete moron.  ...of the blithering variety.

[heckamuch]

dried up cunt

[DaveDoggOwns]

That's either one dumb ass bitch or she is evil as fuck.

[GuardofLiberty]

That guy just gave that ignorant bitch an ass whoopin.

So, the winners of some totally arbitrary popularity contest should have a monopoly on what's ethical?

You can see that none of it makes any sense by her own reactions, even she couldn't make any sense of it.

[overmind25]

Lincoln even supported the Fugitive Slave laws.

[Xandirfan]

We are not a nation of outlaws!

[Mozzzoo]

Vile, despicable, cowardly piece of scum. It's like she's spending her life in limbo, just waiting to be put out of her misery. Well, most of us indulge in this kind of moral nothingness. I think a world in which the legitimation of irrationality is as common as in ours is a tragically sick world ideed. Well, that's not going to stop ME from being happy :) Great work, Jan! I'm certainly going to buy your DVDs, and I encourage everybody to do the same! This is clearly worth financial support.

[combatleague]

revolution now.

[janhelfeld]

LOL

[tumbleweedjoe]

Did she Keynesian vs Kantian? What the hell is she talking about? She is an idiot. Like almost everybody in government, this woman would be working in a factory if she wasn't employed on public dime. Idiot.

[kevbrav]

You underestimate her my young padwan, She knows if she answers the questions, the game is up. And it is just a game, as we already know

[tumbleweedjoe]

*Sighs*, you're probably right. Evil is so depressing.

[afridge13]

instead of Keynesian? what is she talking about?

[Meanie83]

She just admitted democracy is a fraud.

[bearhamo]

We are a nation of statutes and administrative rules, not laws. BIG difference.

[atrickpay11]

Haha, she is so dumb. IQ less than 100.

[atrickpay11]

HAHAH, what a moron she is. He schooled her with the slavery example.

[Nielsio]

The answer to her question is: yes, businesses **are** making a moral judgment when they're hiring people. That judgment is to not forcefully extract money from others but instead to engage in voluntary business relationships.

[timbosforporn]

The only people that can equate morality with legality are the ones that have substituted the role Of God and religion for the state which makes the statist.

[TehBANN3D]

This woman is babbling. Kant and Keynes? The fuck is she on? Whatever it is, it's illegal and she is immoral because if it.

[stratvic]

The people voted this woman into office so she must be right. The interviewer was elected by no one, he must be wrong.

Mobs rule!

[janhelfeld]

CRAPCANNONS ASKS: Why doesn't JH have his own show? Why isn't he everywhere? I did. Maybe all of you can help me get a show again by contacting media TV or radio and sending them jan's videos. FOX NEWS, FOX BUSINESS news, Limbaugh, John Stossel or others.

[tesla921]

This woman could not function without a ruler to tell her what to do.

[tesla921]

This is a totally state indoctrinated woman. She worships politicians and man made laws.

[midsmack]

"If I work, I'm not going to be in poverty - that's the government's role".

WOW. I guess we'd better get some laws on the books that stop people from spending more than they earn, from sinking into poverty regardless of their annual wage. I mean... THAT'S THE GOVERNMENT'S ROLE.

Please, people, wake up. Tea Party Tomorrow!

[Cefuroxx]

We are a nation of outlaws, violated more than international laws than any country....stupid bitch cunt. The people are getting fed up, stand up people.

[langleywallingford]

this lady is like all polatichuns. she donte knoe how to say yes or no.

[blue46gt]

We need to abolish all political positions and state entities/organizations.

[kevbrav]

How? Write a new law into the books. Crazy how they managed to fool civilization for so long.

[mitchhsansom]

Anarchy? Sounds like a good idea to me.

[DeraJa]

She talks about anarchy as if it is a bad thing. I would love to live in a world where everyone had their own morality, and lived their own morality.

[Genowulf]

I really enjoyed this one Jan.

[BRYAN351]

Byrne was as evasive and block-headed as most of the politicians that Jan has interviewed, but I was surprised at how well she kept her cool and didn't become hostile, as many others have done, when her stupidity was revealed.

[whoo689]

What a statist. This woman needs to lose her seat immediately! I hope anyone who watches this seriously reconsiders their vote and votes her OUT next election cycle.

[timbosforporn]

Its always interesting that liberals think that independance that goes outside the govt aka free will is anarchy.

[harryogre]

I don't know if she is simply too stupid to understand the difference between morals and laws or if she knows the difference and simply choose to cling to a lie rather than admit the obvious.

[scdecade]

It's the latter.

[Austrolibertarian]

She's too stupid. It seems pretty clear to me, especially when she thinks raising the minimum wage has no effect on unemployment.

[bobtassoni]

She's not only a confused moral idiot who tries (& evasively fails) to substitute a majority of the legislature's or people's will for natural right, she's an economic idiot who thinks if not for government the price of labor would be determined solely by each employer's whim, as if employers don't compete for labor; & that the profit motive brings about the impoverishment of workers, whereas it is what forces businessmen to produce most cheaply what serves the most urgent needs of the masses.

[banemaler]

The Federal Reserve creates inflation and the Congress requires additional funds for spending. This is the greatest tax on the people of this country. This is one reason that minimum wages are increased and the economy and jobs begin to tank. I wish people would look toward the root of money creation and stop focusing so much on the symptoms. Abolish the central bank in America, allow competing currencies.

[lengthyounarther]

The best I've seen from Jan is some time.

[gsuitter]

According to Rep. Byrne escaping slaves were anarchists.

Keep up the good work Jan!

[feeknocks]

Then you can say, anyone who loves freedom is an anarchist. What a bitch.

[langleywallingford]

but they were braking the law. is that anarchist?

[098uiokjh]

I love this. These people have no moral basis.
