  • And just to clarify further, the last month of job creation was Dec 2007. In 2008 when Bush was still in office we lost 5 MILLION JOBS. Obama's 1st 3 months in office lost 2 million more. Now we could be getting them back quicker probly, but more jobs were lost in Bush's last year than Obama's entire presidency that Repubs refer to as "job killing".

  • In his book Mien Kampf, Hitler blamed three groups for the defeat of Germany in the World War; the Jews, the Marxist, and what third group?...

    ....

    If you answered, The Capitalists, you were right.

    Hitler was Anti-Capitalism, anti-Free Market, anti-Private Property in the way Americans understand the term.

    For Hitler, Private Property was dependent upon the State, and the State could sieze Property at any time, for any reason, from anyone for the "Greater Good" of the people..

  • @DMolinero63 Gee. Hitler also disbanded trade unions & cozied up to the Catholic Church. In fact, much like the Republican Party injecting religion into politics as cover for their greed-centered agenda, all Nazi soldiers wore belt buckles that read "God Is With Us." Hitler ALSO condoned "Verschärfte Vernehmung" - meaning "Enhanced Interrogation" like your GOP masters. Get a clue, you poor tool, before you equate people's desire to be free from the boot of corporate oppression with "Hitler."

  • @Dacktyl

    Hitler subjugated the Church to the State, mandating that every Church replace the Crucifix with the Swastica and the Bible on the alter with a copy of Mein Kampf; that much you can learn from watching the History Channel.

    I'm Libertarian, not Repudican or a Demoncrat, my Politics are in line with John Locke if you know who he might be; if not, I'm posting Second Treatise of Government on my channel a little bit at a time.

    I got the full mp3 from ejunto.org

  • @DMolinero63 A LIBERTARIAN! Naa...You're CLEARLY a Glenn Beck victim. You sad, misguided, dupes have been anchors on society for time immemorial. PLEASE "Go Galt" & take your libertarian arse to the Libertarian paradise of Somalia! We NORMAL PEOPLE (non-Republicans/Libertarians) are trying to create a society that works for ALL, not just billionaires you hope will meet you for a beer. WHAT? Working people having a seat at the table?! Gasp! Watch out! That's JUST like Hitler! (NOT)

  • @Dacktyl

    There are four Basic Rights; Life, Livelihood, Liberty, and Property.

    Those who disregards one of these Rights, will in the end disregard them all as both Marxist and Facists have proven time and again.

    That which I have, may not be taken from me without my consent or without compensation; and those that would, would likely take more, or even my Life at a later date if they could.

    In this country, (USA) 90% of the Wealthy are First Generation Rich.

  • @DMolinero63 NO ONE is taking a damn thing from you without your consent, you tedious bore! If you don't like the price of admission to CIVILIZATION then move your teatarded arse to the Libertarian paradise of Somalia! As our FDR said, "We have come to a clear realization of the fact that true individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. 'Necessitous men are not free men.' People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made."

  • @Dacktyl

    Even the "Poor" in this Country, are part of the Wealthist 10% of the World, with luxery items like Plasma TVs, Game Consoles, Computers, mp3 Players, Cell Phones that plays videos and has internet access; you want to see Poverty, go to my Hometown down in Mexico where even the middle class doesn't have so much.

    Bring down Wall St, and see what happens to your 401k and Pension and minor things like Food Distrabution and Health care; it might be time for me to return home if you do.

  • @DMolinero63 The "poor" eh? You're SUCH a Faux News victim - & it CLEARLY shows! Don't like Mexico? Well, my sad Reich Wing dupe, your CON masters are turning the U.S. into an Oligarchy JUST like Mexico - just like they turned the U.S. from the MOST to the LEAST upwardly mobile with the widest income gap of all industrialized nations in 30 short years. Being a Reich Wing tool is no way to go through life. Don't wait to be on your deathbed like Lee Atwater to beg God for forgiveness.

  • @Dacktyl Who recieved more money from Wall St. than any other Presidential Candidate? Obama.

    Who is handing out Billions of dollars to companies that go bankrupt after? Obama.

    Who has two members of his administration proposing "The Complete Lives System" (A return to Nazi Germany on Healthcare) where those under the age of 2, and those over 65 won't get Care? Obama.

    Who supports OWS as they cover-up Rape amoung their members and threaten the vicitems if they report to the police? Obama.

  • @DMolinero63 OMG... There you go again with your Nazi crap. I DON'T ARGUE WITH GLENN BECK VICTIMS - I simply sigh & then do my part to limit the damage you are doing to my country. You wouldn't let reality get in the way of your fear-based ideology, anyway. Please, perhaps when Obamacare kicks in, you can get help for your manias & glaring Stockholm Syndrome. BTW- Obama received money in 2008 - now Wall St's pick is Romney. What? That's not on Faux or Glenn Beck! I'm SHOCKED!

  • @Dacktyl How many Wall St Fat Cats did Obama give untold amounts of money to? How is it that OWS is in a park owned by one of the richest firms; without that firm saying word one about it? Who is supporting the Crime Ridden OWS where Women gets raped and then threatened if they want to report it to the Police?

    How did Obama get a War Chest of nearly $1 Billion for 2012 if Wall St. isn't supporting him; and what would be the expected pay-back "IF" he's re-elected?

  • @DMolinero63 Look to YOUR OWN Republican masters - in case you haven't noticed, the OWS movement is not a "pro-Obama" movement. You freaks are suffering from such severe Obama Derangement Syndrome you will FOREVER support fascists turning you into compliant Serfs - as long as the queers can't get married. Get a CLUE, you tedious teatard! The window into your tiny mind is the cure for insomnia. Turn off BECK - YOU'RE BEING PLAYED for the dumb-ass you are. Shame on you, you ignorant tool.

  • @DMolinero63 OMG! 2 Members "proposed" something!? Next stop -NAZIVILLE! 1st of all, you're a nut... 2nd of all... with all your "Nazi" paranoia, WHY do you support US Fascists (Corporatists) whose families actually financed Hitler? (Google Prescott Bush Nazis) Where were you when Bush wiped his silver-spooned arse with the Constitution? PLEASE, don't answer that... I'm DONE. Besides. I already know - silently glued to Faux News awaiting your further orders on cheering your subjugation.

  • @Dacktyl Look up The Complete Lives System by so called Dr. Ezekiel J Emanuel where he proposed way back in Jan of 2010 that those under the age of 2 get next to no care, as well as those over 65; you can find it at ncpa.org. Also those with need of prolonged care, their "Social Value" would have to be calculated before getting such care.

    Then there's Cass Sunstein's VSLY, which you can look up as well; he proposes the same.

    What's next? Puting Incureables into buses with darkend windows?

  • @DMolinero63 You are TRULY off the rails. Wake up, teatard. The REAL DEATH PANELS ALREADY EXIST in the Pay-or-die for profit health system that MURDERS 45,000 American & bankrupts MILLIONS MORE EVERY YEAR. YOU ARE A BORE.

  • @Dacktyl

    The Problem is that you see people as a Collective, like the Marxist, the Facists, and even the Borg; that which is good for the Collective is what is good.

    I see people as Individuals, with individual wants, desires, dreams; like the Founding Fathers of this country. Were they perfect, by no means ie Slavery and the Indians; but the idea that the Individual had curtain Rights, that the Collective couldn't deny him, and Government was to protect, sets this Country apart from the rest.

  • @Dacktyl 90% of the American Wealthy are First Generation Rich, source, "The Millionaire Next Door" based on a 20yr study of American Millionaires.

    Yes, under Bush the Middle Class did shrink, but according to the Government the Lower Class didn't grow; so where did all those Middle Class people go if they didn't go down, based on Gov. Figures?

    And what happens to 401k's and Pensions if OWS does gets it way along with the day to day funtions of society? Have you even thought that through?

  • @DMolinero63 FASCINATING statistic! But WTF does it matter if they're "first generation"? They still have 2 pay the ticket price to civilization! Since Reagan, the GOP shifted the tax burden from rich to working class...so the rich can buy politicians that turn the govt, as FDR said, "into a mere appendage of their own affairs." Hey! Here's an idea! Let's go back 2 a top marginal tax rate of 90% like we had under that Socialist Eisenhower - Strong Unions & bankster regs! Those were the days!

  • @Dacktyl

    History Proves that lowering the Income Tax that the Rich pays even more in Taxes. Under Bush, the Top 1% paid 26% of all Income Taxes Received by the IRS; and the top 10% paid 40%. The same happened back in the 20's, with Kennedy, and Reagan.

    When you raise Taxes on the Rich, they pay a smaller percentage as they shelter their money from taxation; happened under Wilson, FDR, Nixion/Carter, Clinton, and now.

    The problem is Spending, not Taxation.

  • @DMolinero63

    The Avg Self-Made Millionaire,(SMM) makes LESS than $50k a year (Source, The Millionaire Next Door) taking on avg 18+yrs to reach Millionaire status.

    The Avg SMM got a C+ in High School and didn't complete College, if they even went to College. (Source, The Millionaire's Mind) as College either didn't offer what they desired, or they dropped out after learning what they did want to know.

  • @Dacktyl True Story, a mother, 3rd Gen Welfare Recepent High School Dropout with 2 sons(Fathers of each in Prison) decided that her 2 boys wouldn't grow up on Welfare went to work; first doing Laundry in the Projects where she lived until she could buy a used car for cash, then she cleaned houses as she got her GED and went to Night School.

    In 5yrs of moving up in housing and jobs, she put 20% down on a 15yr Fixed Rate Morgage that she paid off in less then 7yrs in the good part of town.

  • @Dacktyl

    True Story, Newlywed Couple earning $80k yr, decided to live on $30k yr and Bank the rest for 4yrs.

    Buying a House, they simply wrote a check for $150k as they spent the other $50k on funiture.

    Source for such stories, Dave Ramsey which I share with my children so that they can see what is possible in this Great Country if one works and pursues one's own dreams.

    Government fits people into Boxes, but Individuals don't fit into Boxes, they are the ones who moves up and do great.

  • @DMolinero63 Hitler subjugated dupes like YOU. If u had a grasp on history or reality u would accept the fact that Hitler was a RIGHT WINGER like yourself who disbanded Labor Unions & handed public COMMONS to CORPORATIONS! I know..the word "Socialist" confuses you. Nazi Germany was "Socialist" like the People's Republic of China was "Republican." The Church WILLINGLY GOT IN BED WITH HITLER. Like all Reich Wingers ur appalling ignorance of history & reality is not only tedious - it's BORING!

  • @Dacktyl

    Question, Do I have the Right to that for which I earned through my own labor as Property? Would I also have the Right to use that Property as I see fit as long as I don't harm others or the Property of another, even if others, or even everyone disagrees with how I used said Property? Can my Right over my own Property be denied to me without just compensation by those who would deny me my Rights over said Property? Could it even be taken away for the "Common Good" without compensation?

  • @DMolinero63 "I pledge that I never will tie myself to parties who want to destroy Christianity. We want to fill our culture again with the Christian spirit. We want to burn out all the recent immoral developments in literature, in the theater, & in the press-we want to burn out the poison of immorality which has entered into our whole life & culture as a result of liberal excess during the past few years." The Speeches of Adolph Hitler, Vol. 1 pp. 871–872. Wake up, dupe... Reality is calling!

  • @Dacktyl

    Something I guess that Bonhoeffer, Corrie Ten Boom and others who believed that they should Obey God over Men took great comfort in as they were going to Prison and Death for standing up to Hitler.

    How many Christens did Hitler send to labor camps for taking a stand? A lot.

  • @Dacktyl

    And Hitler still blamed Capitalists for the Fall of Germany in the first World War, without adding the word Jew to it. Hitler hated Capitalism with a passion and didn't bother to modify it with the word Jewish.

    Read Mein Kampf for yourself and prove me wrong if you dare; you just might find that Hitler agreed with Marx on a lot of things, all of it Evil.

  • @DMolinero63 Oh, I see the teatard logic... Hitler "blamed" Capitalists....which naturally means Capitalists can do no wrong... right! You're incredibly tedious and boring.... seriously. Using your "logic," I guess we should reinstate slavery... since Capitalism demands cheap labor! After all, CONS from sea to shining sea are trying to end child labor laws! That's the CON agenda YOU condone - & thus, YOU are the enabler of EVIL. Get a clue... start by turning off Glenn Beck.

  • @Dacktyl

    As John Locke wrote, the State of Slavery, is a State of War; and the Slave has the Moral Right to free himself by whatever means possible, even if he kills his Master to gain his path towards Freedom.

    As for Cheap Labor, no one is forcing you work for whatever amount you agree to with your level of skill, and no one is keeping you from learning new skills or seeking better pay elsewhere.

    My Boss is not responcible for me making enough to live on, that is up to me and no one else.

  • @DMolinero63

    D, now you're talking personal responcibilties, something beyond the grasp of Left-Wing Loons; they can't even decide what to do with rapes in their mist let alone taking on something as hard as working for a living.

    My guess is that at best, Dacktyl is a Professor at some University, protected by Tenure so that she doesn't have to worry about earning a living; all that she has to do is show up and tell her class how much she hates people who disagrees with her.

  • @Surmar01

    Surry, (if you don't mind) I wouldn't presume what kind of profession Dacktyl has as she could be a government Employee, a Union Rep, or some other job where she doesn't have to face Market Realities to threaten her political bubble.

    I would admit that their cover up of multiple rapes at their protests, even going as far as to threaten one of their fellow protesters for reporting her rape to the police, does offer insights on how this group would govern if they ever came to power.

  • @DMolinero63 Presume away, you sad dupe - but wrong (as usual, I PRESUME) Unlike you, I'm not a Faux News victim who parrots the talking points of billionaires hoping they'll meet me 4 a beer. I also know history & live in reality - & know that EVERY SINGLE ADVANCEMENT the US has ever taken has been a LIBERAL initiative. WE will AGAIN regain the former economic vibrancy & FREEDOM 4 the working class - as YOU whine "liberals are bad" as you collect your Social Security.

  • @Surmar01 Do you EVER get tired of being Breightbat's a useful idiot? Do you know that man hasn't taken a sober breath in decades? The only rapes exist on Reich Wing blogs to get dupes like yourself to discredit the movement (that will also benefit YOU, you're welcome). I also LOVE how you're OBSESSED with pondering my profession! Good luck with that! BTW - I only "hate" ignorant dupes who cheer their own demise & ppl with small amygdalas... Hey! That's YOU! Google "conservatives amygdala"

  • @Dacktyl As someone who had never taken welfare, unemployment, or anything else of government aid which is simply equal to slavery, and teach my children the same, I have never leeched off of other people's money. as long as I can swing a hammer, clean a house, tend a yard, I can find work to suport my family. the result of my work ethic, I now own my store, debt-free, with six months operational in the bank inclueding payroll as I live in a paid for house and drive a paid for car. Cash is King

  • @Surmar01 Right! Another "Day in the Life of Joe Middle-Class Republican!" You built your own roads, ran your own electric wires, taught yourself to read, Have your own police, fire - 911...how do you not get explosive diarrhea? Your own food safety service? No one is FORCING your tedious ass to do a G-D thing. Don't like the price of admission to CIVILIZATION? "GO GALT!" Move to the Libertarian paradise of Somalia. Get LOST! Besides being society's anchors, CONS are whiny HYPOCRITE BORES!

  • @Dacktyl Why do Libs always fall back onto the basics of government responcibilites to justify the over-extention of government authority? Welfare = Slavery which can be proven by simply visiting the local housing authority or Welfare Office in any community and watch as people limit themselves to remain on the public dime. I'd rather work 3 jobs, which I have done, than fill out a Welfare or Housing Application and be forced to limit myself.

  • @Surmar01 There you go again with the CON inability to see the forest through the trees - you wouldn't have to work 3 "uniquely American" low paying, nowhere jobs if our system worked for EVERYONE - not just your rich authoritarian daddies. Please, you're beyond tedious now. If you grasped history or reality you'd know that a middle class is an aberration & was created in the US by POLICY that made it possible (THE NEW DEAL) Turn off Faux News & read a history book. You're being played.

  • @Dacktyl You have no idea where or when I worked 3 jobs, or why; or what they paid.

    In this country,

    1 was a supervisor for the night shift at a help desk, pay $15hr + benefits

    2 working nights at a 24hr cafe where I avg w/tips, $8-10hr on my nights off.

    3 cleaning houses.

    Reason, I wanted to open my own store, with my own money without tapping that which my husband had; not that he wouldn't set me up, just that I wanted to do it on my own.

  • @Surmar01 Funny how CONS always seem to think it's all about them! Congratulations on all those low-paying thankless jobs! Sounds very "uniquely American." Keep voting against your own best interests. Let me know when a billionaire meets you for a beer...

  • @Dacktyl But I don't like beer.

  • @Surmar01Right... I forgot.. You're the center of the universe. AS John Kenneth Galbraith said, "The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness."

  • @Dacktyl The New Deal was as much a failure as Obama's $780 Million Stimulus.

    "We have tried spending money. We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work."

    United States Secretary of the Treasury (under FDR) Henry Morgenthau Jr.

    You should look up the full quote, he basicly said that the New Deal was a big time failure that prolonged the Depression and was leading the country to ruin.

  • @Surmar01 Right... that's the Faux News lie they need you to swallow. The New Deal CREATED the American Middle Class, you sad, tragic tool. Check out a history book. It was called "THE GREAT PROSPERITY" - as opposed to GREAT DEPRESSION 1 & GREAT DEPRESSION 2 that CON policies created. It only took 30 years since Reagan - & the Repug assault on the New Deal - to turn the US from the MOST to the LEAST upwardly mobile with the widest income gap of ALL industrialized nations. ANOTHER CON FAIL.

  • @Dacktyl How well sourced is that book? I have noted that much of what gets printed out by the Left have very few, if any footnotes as they rewrite history.

    Morgenthau stated that the New Deal was a complete failure, and as Sec of U.S. Treasury, he would have been well placed to see the results.

    So just how many pages, if any, does that book has for footnotes?

  • @Surmar01 Faux News victims bring to mind the quote: “To argue with a person who has renounced the use of reason is like administering medicine to the dead.” - Thomas Paine - who wrote "Rights of Man" as a rebuttal to Edmund Burke's (the FATHER of CONservatism) assertion that the masses needed to be ruled by a small, rich, elite. That's STILL the CON agenda. As Louis Brandeis said, "We may have democracy, or we may have wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both."

  • @Dacktyl "We have tried spending money. We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work. And I have just one interest, and if I am wrong … somebody else can have my job. I want to see this country prosperous. I want to see people get a job. I want to see people get enough to eat. We have never made good on our promises. … I say after eight years of this Administration we have just as much unemployment as when we started. … And an enormous debt to boot." Morgenthau

  • @Surmar01 You're beyond tedious now. You don't like debt, do you? Then WHY ARE YOU A REPUG? REPUGS PURPOSEFULLY ran up the debt & now scream about it as a STRATEGY (it's called "2 Santa Claus - Google it) to hand more power to corporations & have you idiots destroying the only speed bump to their unbridled power - OUR pesky WE THE PEOPLE GOVT. I can't take this anymore. You're a Faux News victim & there's not enough time in my life to penetrate your Stockholm Syndrome. Have fun in Somalia.

  • @Dacktyl I was opposed to Bush running up the debt, not that you'd care to recall that many Republicans and Civil Libertarians were critical of it; but just in case, look up who opposed the Medicare Pt. D program.

  • @Surmar01 There you go again revealing that you're a Faux News victim. "Medicare Part D" was the Repug attempt to PRIVATIZE MEDICARE - so when your master Repugs railed about "defunding Medicare" they did the bidding of their Health Racket masters who want that stupid taxpayer money. Just like Repugs let Banksters admin student loans to skim off the top & whined when O put a stop to it. It's a testament liberals that even dupes get to benefit from our policies - as they whine on COMMAND.

  • @Dacktyl Something else, all that I have is a GED but I do better than most with degrees as I figured out quite young that nobody would simply hand to me the things that I wanted but that I would have to go out and earn it myself.

    Say what you will of the Tea Party, but at least there I wouldn't have to worry about being Raped, and then Threatened if I go to the Police to report it; like what is happening in the OWS Camps. and my amygdalas are working just fine thank-you.

  • @Surmar01 The Teabaggers are tools like yourself who repeat the stories your masters tell you to get you scared enough to slit your own throat. The only one being "raped" is you & your amygdala, you fear-centered ass. I can tell that you don't even know what "your amagdalas" are, do you? I know. Learning is hard & best left to Liberals - the same way building a functioning society is best left to Liberals - we're not scientifically-proven fear-based cowards.

  • @Dacktyl The amygdala study you like to recite, was it one of those by the fraud University of Tilburg Prof. Diederik Stapel that came out and admited that all of his studies were lies to advance an agenda? That he just wrote up what people wanted to hear.

  • @Surmar01 ah... No. I know that's what you wish... I know... I know.... before the truth sets you free, it will piss you off. The study also found that besides having larger amygdalas (responsible for fear and other “primitive” emotions,) conservatives’ brains were also found to have a smaller anterior cingulate — the part of the brain responsible for courage & optimism. In short, CONS are scientifically-verified, fear-centered cowards. No wonder CONS loathe science - it has you PEGGED.

  • @Dacktyl Is that why I believed that I could open a store and do well, even with President Obama's wreaking the economy? Oh, I forgot, it's Bush's fault that Obama had to spend nearly a Trillion Dollars to carry unemployment from 5% to 9% with an outlook for the next few yrs of high unemployment; but look at all the jobs he saved. Oh course Obama's Energy Program is doing very well, with one company after another going Bankrupt; and who is to forget Obama's ATF?

  • @Surmar01 "WRECKING THE ECONOMY?!?" If you don't like the economy - blame your filthy REPUGS - REMEMBER how they held us hostage again & again so the rich can CONTINUE to reap the lowest tax rates since the 1920s?! Corporations reaped RECORD profits last year - that's a FACT - We're still waiting for the trickle. If you don't like the economy, it's BUSH'S ECONOMY - Obama plays too nice with you sociopaths - THAT'S HIS PROBLEM. Hopefully he will wake up - or OWS will do it for him.

  • @Surmar01 OBAMA finally put BUSH'S ILLEGAL WARS ON THE BOOKS, you tedious, non-reality-living, tool. Then..."SUDDENLY" the budget exploded. Repugs KNEW you tools wouldn't pay attention to their little bookkeeping trick as you were silently glued to Faux News while they raided the treasury. Frankly, you're making me weak with your programmed talking points - a true testament to the power of propaganda - & a window into the world of what normal people (non-Republicans) are up against.

  • @Dacktyl It seems to me that Liberals project what they don't like about themselves onto others. Having grown up in a progressive home, I've never met a Conservitive that fit the mold that my parent cast them in; but I have met more than one Liberal that fitted said cast perfectly.

  • @Surmar01 You SERIOUSLY must TURN OFF FAUX NEWS. Your ignorance of history is JUST what CONS LOVE. "Opinions" ARE NOT "FACTS." Liberal policies gave us the "The Great Prosperity." CON policies crashed the economy 2x in 100 yrs, turned the middle class into the working poor, & transformed America from the MOST to the LEAST upwardly mobile of all industrialized naitons. As the Bible says, "know them by their fruits." If those FACTS don't fit your propagandize mind, you're lost cause. BYE!

  • @Surmar01 yes Obama created all of this mess himself, he is the 1 solely responsible for the current state of the American economy. As someone else noted, he actually put the wars on the books. Had Bush done that for 5 yrs those deficits he was running would've lookde alot worse. And funny that Republicans suddenly cared about the debt as Bush was running 500 billion no one stood up and called for a balanced budget amendment.

  • @DMaster81 Selective memory you have there that no Republicans were ever critical of Bush; on several spending issues he was a regular pinata by Liembaugh, Beck, and other pundents (Not that you would care to remember any of it)

    On Headline News, Beck repeatedly critizied Bush and the Congress for having more than one set of books; so you have either proven yourself as dishonest or ignorant.

  • @DMaster81 Considering that Obama had more than doubled the Nat. Debt in his first two years, I can see the confort you take in your false argument that no one was sounding alarms over the spending that Bush and the Rep. Congress was making. Unlike you, I've been consistent on spending & taxes under both Bush & Obama; $16 Trillion Debt, $9 Trillion since Obama came to office.

    One can't tax enough to pay it off, not even the "1%" has that kind of money.

  • @Surmar01 Another interesting longitudinal study followed 100 children over 30 years. Not surprisingly, they found that the whiny, fearful, intellectually-incurious children grew up to be CONS, & the confident, resilient, self-reliant children grew up to be Liberals. Yep. Makes sense.

  • @Surmar01 You like "studies?" You should also look up the ones that found rates of violent death (suicides & homicide) skyrocket when CONS have their boney, greed-centered, fingers around the neck of govt. DIFFERENT studies in the U.S., UK & Australia ALL had same conclusions. CON rule is LITERALLY bad for our health. Oh yeah... abortions also skyrocket due to the CON inability to face reality & their penchant for pushing ideology rather than actually governing.

  • @Dacktyl Maybe I should have been clear-er, how many pages of footnotes does "The Great Prosperity" have?

  • @Surmar01 WOW. You're clueless. "The GREAT PROSPERITY" was the period between 1947-1979 - it was also called "THE GREAT COMPRESSION" -meaning the gap between rich & poor was SLIM. It's not a book - it's a time in history. That's like asking for footnotes for "The Dark Ages." I mean, seriously. PLEASE turn off Faux News. Why don't you read a Thom Hartmann book? He's kind to tedious CONS, & has a lot more patience than I do as he tries his best to penetrate decades of programmed lies.

  • @Surmar01 I know, I know... They're filling your scientifically-proven, fear-centered, brains with ALL SORTS of stories that tickle that large amygdala so you cheer your own demise - & pray for an authoritarian to rescue you from all the monsters. You ALL talk out of your asses. You've never been to OWS, (as I have -in different parts of the country too!) I wasn't raped, but I WAS offered a very delicious sandwich. Don't you "average Joe" Reich Wingers EVER get tired of being played?

  • @Dacktyl I think that the Government is already too authoritarian in too many areas of both public and private life; you have any idea how much it costs to be complient with a 30,000 page tax code if you have money?

    I guess that you would also deny that OWS protesters damages both public and private property as Abbie Hoffman(One of the organizers of OWS) advocates in Steal This Book with manuels on how to build a bomb and other terror related devices as it also advocates theft.

  • @Surmar01 "We have come to a clear realization of the fact that true individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. 'Necessitous men are not free men." People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made." - FDR

  • @Surmar01 "...political equality we once had won was meaningless in the face of economic inequality. A small group concentrated into their own hands an almost complete control over other people's property, other people's money, other people's labor-other people's lives. For too many of us life was no longer free; liberty no longer real; men could no longer follow the pursuit of happiness. Against economic tyranny such as this, the citizen could appeal only to the organized power of govt." - FDR

  • @Dacktyl The only thing, the govenment has to take from those who produce, to give to those who don't; from those who earn, to those who don't. Welfare is designed to keep people dependant on government, enslaved to a merciless master.

  • @Surmar01 What a bunch of PARROTS you CONS are! "handouts!" Squawk! "Welfare!" Squawk! "Bootstraps!" You're SO CLEARLY brainwashed by Faux News you can't even see it. You're nothing but a sucka for those with absolutely no loyalty to either country or community. You're the REAL slave who thinks you're not "free" unless some corporation can ride your dumb, serf arse to the bank unfettered by our pesky "We The People" govt. Such a sad, tragic, victim to the power of propaganda.

  • @Surmar01 "The true friend of property, the true conservative, is he who insists that property shall be the servant and not the master of the commonwealth; who insists that the creature of man’s making shall be the servant and not the master of the man who made it. The citizens of the United States must effectively control the mighty commercial forces which they have called into being." - Teddy Roosevelt

  • @Surmar01 Don't worry, Liberals will ONCE AGAIN rescue the middle class from the "big-moneyed interests" who have you so duped & brainwashed, like chickens voting for Colonel Sanders. rust me, history will look back the Koch Brothers & their Teatards as the villains & their useful idiots -as they plunge into the dung heap of history - where ALL greed-centered death cults & their ignorant tools eventually wind up... & humanity will breathe a sigh of relief that we ONCE AGAIN evolved DESPITE YOU.

  • @Dacktyl I had enough of Liberals with my own parents who might make Marx look like Rush with all of their Loony Left-Wing Propaganda and wild parties; even questioning why their dogma was right led to, Unfortunate, responces.

    At 15, I was sent to live with reletives out of country, and forgotten about as they didn't even send the support they promised. So I don't need to be educated on the loving compassion of Liberals, I grew-up with it and saw first hand where it leads.

  • @Surmar01 Poor dear, perhaps when Obamacare kicks in you can get some therapy to help heal those childhood issues that are clearly affecting your judgement in your adulthood. Good luck in Somalia.

  • @Dacktyl Another thing, My Husband and I, unlike what my parents would do, help people in need; often without letting them know that it was us that helped them. Recently, we even gave of our own money, a year worth of rent, a good used car, and Wal-Mart gift cards to a young, hardworking couple whose child was diagnosed with cancer; through their own church. Why? Because we could. That's Capitalism in the vain of Ben Franklin, whose books we make our three children read.

  • @Surmar01 Of course the rent wasn't too hard as they live in a building that we own, but we did have to move funds around on paper for legal reasons so that the Government Nazis with the IRS doesn't have a fit.

  • @Surmar01 WOW! You're just saints who walk among us. I know they'll appreciate that kind of selfless altruism in Somalia.

  • @Dacktyl We're not saints by any means, it's fun to give money that actually helps people; unlike welfare which leads to slavery. How do you think that couple reacted knowing that they won't have to worry about rent, food, clothes, or other basics as their child fights cancer? What does it means to the people of that church and the community at large that so much was raised in private donations to help someone in need? And the lion share of donations didn't come us, we targeted curtain needs.

  • @Surmar01 BTW... if you don't make you're living waiting for a dividend check to arrive, YOU'RE NOT A CAPITALIST. A CAPITALIST is part of the INVESTOR CLASS. There's your first mistake -you're duped into thinking your interests are the same as those whose only agenda is riding your dumb, serf, arse mercilessly to the bank without our pesky govt. (that Ben Franklin had a hand in creating) getting in the way of their only concern -greed. Turn off Faux. You've been played.

  • @Dacktyl Like people who live on Pensions, 401k's and other investments? I cashed in a lot of my profolio to open my store with a good Capital Reserve on the side if the need arrises for it. I still invest at least 15% of my income in the market, as does my husband with his when he's not buying land.

  • @DMolinero63 As Plutarch wrote, "An imbalance between rich and poor is the oldest and most fatal ailment of all republics."

  • @Dacktyl

    You can download a pdf copy of Mein Kampf from the website of the American Nazi Party as you read a two page endorcement of Occupy Wall St.

  • @DMolinero63 You've been listening to Glenn Beck for too long. The REAL FASCISTS are the corporatist masters who have you convinced you're not "free" unless they can ride you mercilessly to the bank without our pesky govt. of WE THE PEOPLE telling them to "be nice!" Do you Reich Wingers EVER get tired of being PLAYED so easily by FASCISTS?

  • @DMolinero63 You've read "Mien Kampf," I see? ... naaa.. you just take your orders from America's Reich Wing who DEPEND on revisionist history to advance their agenda.... Let's see... Hitler advocated racism over tolerance, eugenics over freedom of reproduction, militarism over pacifism, dictatorship over democracy, capitalism over Marxism, nationalism over internationalism, exclusiveness over inclusiveness, mysticism over science, & even mixed church with state... sounds like the GOP to me!

  • @Dacktyl

    In the Chapter WHY THE SECOND REICH COLLAPSED, Hitler talks about the need to Subjugate Religion to the State, earlier in his book he spoke of people of Faith, should Not Talk Politics or deal in Political Matters.

    Where had Hitler ever advocated Capitalism? Was it the Individual is subjuget to the Collective? Nationizing all Real Estate? Deciding who make seek what sort of employment? Property is depedant on the State?

    Hitler blamed Capitalists for the defeat of Germany

  • @DMolinero63 "I believe today that my conduct is in accordance with the will of the Almighty Creator." Hitler, Mein Kampf, p. 46 "What we have to fight for . . . is the freedom and independence of the fatherland, so that our people may be enabled to fulfill the mission assigned to it by the Creator." Hitler, _Mein Kampf_, pp. 12

  • "The corporate state is demanding ownership of everything--our education system, our economy, our government. To this there's only one answer to these corporate thugs---GO FUCK YOURSELVES!" Mike Malloy

  • Excellent!!! Mike's really got a way with words!!!

  • great vid. Little typo at the beginning through.

  • @Michaelwasinasia Thanks for the catch! Clearly, I didn't notice that the date said "2001"... I changed it in the description. That's the thing about YouTube... once a video is up, it's up! All the best to you!

  • @Dacktyl yeah I know. I just don't want the flying monkeys to have any ammo.

  • Good Man Malloy! Love You Brother.
