  • You see this video just gives you an outlook on how this person is.. I guess being capitalist is "Extremist politics" lmfao.. dear god. He's upset because his made up socialist paradise isn't coming true :( Lee is making more videos than me, and his intelligence on these subjects far surpasses mine so that's unfair :( boo hoo dude, we're not all equal as you can fuckin tell yeah? People man.. they're just whacked out of their gourds today.

  • @Mirovozzrenie100 And you're just a moron who probably can't take a dump without orders from your thought masters. Please go be boring elsewhere, twat.

  • how old is Lee Doren?

  • Lee spouts nonsense, as well as providing a valid perspective oftentimes. Not everything is accurate, and a few things are just outrageous right-wing propaganda. Some people are faster at getting videos up -- no mystery; comes with experience. The research is still shoddy but if you look hard enough there aren't very many cited claims, just opinions or just perspective and logic.

  • "He's spouting nonsense" - He graduated from one of the top universities in US and has won awards in debates. I am not a HTWW fan but I do respect what he has to say. He always sites his information and how he got it. How is that nonsense? Did you ever think about the fact that he has had experience in that field and does not need days of research? OR maybe he researched before. The rest of what you said was just stupid. Clearly, what he sites is not considered information to you. Idiot.

  • 309 people can't refute Lee Doren's facts.

  • Extremist?

  • WOW, this video is just a waste of you tubes bandwidth.

  • And FYI, Lee did not rally his troops to rate your vids down. Lee has never said to his subscribers go after you or anyone else and down rate their vids. People have free will, and the reason your vids got voted down was because they did not agree with your argument. And that you didn't present a strong argument to begin with. And just so you know I didn't rate your vid down, because I don't believe its constructive. I will rate up a vid I like, but do nothing but comment on vids that I don't.

  • I fail to see how your argument against Lee is valid. You criticize Lee for posting vids too frequently not giving you the ability to fact check and research for a rebuttal in a timely fashion. Yet he gives you the sources on where he gets his information. How long does it take to research a few sources, and determine if its valid or not? And you failed to explain what facts that he provided are false. Nor did you properly explain exactly how Lee is dangerous. Why because you disagree with him?

  • Butthurt: The Video

  • I want to know how Lee Doren REALLY works not how he produces videos.

    I want to know why he is pussy whipped by that Annie chick and why he can't get over her.

    I want to know WHO signs his checks and why he gives a damn about any of this.

  • Lee Doren's fan base is funny. They think he actually debunked the study proving the misinformed FOX viewer study. He is just looking to get hired by Rupert Murdoch in the near future. He has no conscience and no scruples. Simple as that. Thanks for the vid.

  • Lee Doren is the greatest thing since Fox News! He makes RW propaganda 100% fun. He is extremely well-read and relevant -- and he always includes links to his sources. Who could argue with that?

    But best of all, he makes economics, current events, and politics so derned energizing. Every video is like the 4th of July, with fireworks & parades. That's how propaganda is supposed to be, right? It's supposed to get our blood boiling. Otherwise, it's not propaganda; it's merely dry educational blah.

  • So Lee Doren is "dangerous" because he might post a lot of videos. He really does do his research man. There is nothing wrong with his politics or his support for capitalism. you don't know what you're talking about.

  • @ManOfDeath567 And you have no idea how many times I've heard that spiel.

    The point of the video is simple: It's faster to spread bullshit than it is to clean it up.

    Thanks for playing.

  • @terrarising "It's faster to spead bullshit than it is to clean it up." My friend, that is exactly what you did in this video. Where is your evidence, man?

  • @terrarising These Lee Doren fans are a one trick pony. They come back with their opinion as if it's face. Thanks for calling them out.

  • @terrarising

    You are a moron.

    You can disagree with Lee all you want, but to claim he spreads false information and that it's bullshit makes you look like a complete tool.

    THANKS FOR PLAY-

    o wait nevermind.

  • @terrarising People are upset at "How the World Works" because they disagree with him politically. Be mature and debate his substantive points like an adult if you disagree. Don't demagogue and dismiss him like leftists love doing with alternate viewpoints.

  • @terrarising And just to reiterate, your video did nothing but demagogue Lee. If you can't do research to appropriately respond to substantive arguments, just stick to listening to viewpoints you agree with. Claiming his viewpoints are invalid because you do not like them is akin to fascism (well, what leftists call fascism).

  • @terrarising Your progressive friends do the same thing. How long have we heard whoppers like "you can sneak a glock through metal detectors" and "there is a 'gun show loophole' that we need to close"? That is just on the topic of firearms. I agree it is faster to spread BS than to mop it up, however, I really do not detect any BS in what Lee Doren has said..

  • @ManOfDeath567

    Yeah, there is

  • let's presume that Lee is "spouting nonsense". What you're saying is "he makes more videos than I do!! That's Not Fair!! Waaaaaaa" fight fire with fire pal. Keep "spewing" your nonsense and in "free market fashion" let the viewers decide.

  • @glenndough79 Thanks for the strawman, bro.

  • @terrarising no really just keep making videos where you don't argue any specific points just get on screen and cry.

  • @glenndough79 lol. Spreading bullshit is easier than countering it. Re: you.

  • @terrarising

    "Spreading bullshit is easier than countering it." You make that abundantly clear in this vid.

  • @terrarising I like the evidence you presented. Oh wait....

  • Dude,you debating Lee Doren in the intelligence dept. is like a Pop Warner Football team playing against the New Orlean Saints. You being the player on the pop warner team.Your intellect is NO match for Lee Doran.To compare your I.Q. level to Lee's is hillarious.Go back to night school and take a class on common sense, fool ! Your truly pathetic .Come back when you learn something !

  • @demmylowther Considering your bias in favor of outdated and heartless ideas, not to mention your bias towards stupid people, I'll take your consideration for what it is... nothing.

    Now, be a good little drone and be boring elsewhere. kthxbai!

  • Comment removed

  • @demmylowther Why do you assume his IQ is less than Lee Doren's. I think you're a bloody racist. Terrarising has some good points. Additionally, Doren spouts off mindless commentary having ZERO support beyond ideological assumptions to back his points. He uses the odd statistic here and there, but has no comprehension of how difficult it really is to make causal links. This is the critical failure of Lee Doren. Lots of BS and very little research. Go away racist. Sieg Heil back to hell.

  • 294 thumbs up 388 thumbs down. There are two reasons you will never make it on youtube. 1: You're boring and physically hideous. 2: YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE FUCK YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. You're a mental midget compared to Lee. He's a lawyer, what in the hell do you do? What did you score on your SAT's? You do not present one concrete "rebuttal" to Lee's views, nor do you do ANYTHING but sit there and say "he's wrong and he's dangerous." Typical liberal with a big FAT mouth and nothing to back it.

  • @Acrilawl you are an idiot.

  • Comment removed

  • I just saw your other video where you're claiming "you weren't trying to disprove him" in this video. So which are you trying to do it in? You're a mental midget compared to him and you damn well know it. There are some liberals on youtube that know what they're talking about to some degree, but you are not one of them. You present no proof or evidence to back your claims, so I will have to insist that it is you, my fat friend, that is the idiot.

  • @Acrilawl I don't give two shits what you insist.

    Consider yourself boring, for bringing up old drama. Consider yourself ignorant, since I'm not a liberal. Consider yourself cheap, for a pointless insult...

    And, most importantly, consider yourself blocked, because I don't need your bullshit... Now, please go fuck yourself with a flagpole.

  • yeah you are correct. Lee never never has facts to back himself up. maybe he should just get a shitty camera and a shitty board sniff the marker and just ramble about someone not having facts while not backing your no facts claim with no facts. Capitalism is soooo terrible, board, marker, shitty camera, designer glasses, clippers to groom the landing zone for cheetos and I'm guessing you didn't in any way compare price or product before deciding on all of these. boy Capitalism does suck.

  • hi terra.

    i have only come across lee doren a couple of days ago doing a '' critique '' of the story of stuff. i find it hard to take him seriously. he seems like a spoiled prep school boy to me or a typical yuppy.

    but i dar say some people will buy into the stuff he spouts.

  • @sabelmouse Would you like to challenge something he has to say?

  • @James92802

    i'd like to challenge a lot of what he has to say.

  • @sabelmouse Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnndd­dddddddddddd? 

  • @James92802

    what are you saying? i am not goo at that.

  • howtheworldworks = howtheZIONIST(WAR-MONGERING)wo­rldworks

    he is part of the NEO-CON ZIONIST CRIME network

    this is the same group of folks who push US foreign policy through powerful lobbies like AIPAC and dozens of dual-Israeli citizens in the pentagon and white house (like RAHM EMMANUEL who served in the ISRAELI MILITARY) to die and fight for ISRAEL (see IRAN or the lies about WMD's)

    to get a better idea of how much LEE supports and is devoted to ISRAEL watch his video "Blame Israel?!"

  • @theTRUTHprincess Yeah that was not a crazy rant at all...

  • Whining is not an effective debate tactic, my friend.

  • I watch Lee's videos and I literally lose track of all the lies he tells... Usually around a minute into his video and I don't have the space on a comment to correct all of his errors.

    I do enjoy the fact that he forces us to go out there and get the facts for ourselves. I have learned a lot just doing the research to correct his bullshit.

  • @killerbandit Pkay pick a video and out the lies..... just remember to support your findings with sources.

  • @killerbandit Then you should be able to make a killer video debunking him?

    I would like to see it, your making claims about what you could do is just kinda sad...

    Just like your doing with Doran, I could tell everyone how I could get in the ring and destroy Anderson The Spider Silva in the ring. I could point out that his style is flawed, and that I'm so much smarter and talented. BUT, that would make me sound stupid.

    BTW how dumb do you feel?

    You need to debunk him first, then talk...

  • @James92802 .....mmmkay big guy, go get brainwashed by Lee now.

  • @killerbandit Like which ones? The ones you made up in your head?

  • INFORMATION RUNNING TOO FAST!! I still wonder exactly what it is that you seem to want to debunk so badly. Why don't you post a link on this video to a thread or a forum or something. Basically, you've shown absolutely nothing except how quickly he can create a video, but not why it's wrong. I personally fact check all the big important stories and news, and so far everything seems pretty legit.

  • Lee

  • So says the right-wing nutcase who hates when he is judged on nothing, yet does not hesitate to judge others on the same amount of nonsense.

  • Couldn't dispute the fact that you're a welfare charge.

  • No, I actually work for a living. Not that the facts will get in the way of your beliefs.

    Go worship the free market gods and defend the blasphemers, oh Crusader of Commerce.

    And go fuck yourself while your at it, moron.

  • Hey Fat Slob

    How does a fact get in the way of my belief ?

    We know who you are through your spiel - fool.

    But remember - gov. does not produce anything !.

    Soon your gov. job will be in jeopardy -

    You will have to get off that gigantic ass and work for a living !

  • And you have shown that you have neither a brain nor any value to me. I'm so glad.

    So please do us all a favor and crush your testicles so you can't genetically spread your bullshit.

  • @mstaff657 "How does a fact get in the way of my belief ?"

    YOUR beliefs, a fact could probably NEVER get in the way of YOUR beliefs.

    Reasonable people though base their beliefs on facts.

  • @mstaff657

    nice, personal insults allways make you look intelligent.

  • @terrarising "go fuck yourself" seems to be the intellectual limits to a liberal rebuttal.

    Did you look at your video before you posted it? Didn't you see how it would make you look a bit slow?

    Remember to tell me to "go fuck yourself".

  • @terrarising What 'free market gods'? Are you retarded?

  • @mstaff657 - I'd be curious what you have to say about Rush Limbaugh? Fat slob sex tourist?

  • Look... There are (as you put it) "Free-Thinkers" on both sides of the argument. What you are saying is not very cohesive an argument against anything. I do have some missgivings about some of points that Mr. Doren makes in the Critique; however, I have more for the original film. Both films are made by people or orginizations who are, at the heart, capitolist in nature (wanting to make a profit).

  • Lee is only interested in money, I don't think he's stupid enough to believe what he says. His mentors are probably morons like Beck and Limbauw Lee figured "hey ! people are fucking stupid ! and they'll believe anything you say !" "I wanna piece of it" I'm happy he has the reputation he deserves on youtube : A total douchebag.

  • @coffee396 meh to be fair I've oftern had the thought that I could also make money off the back off peoples stupidity. I wonder if the catholic church is hiring?

  • @coffee396 Ad hominem, ad hominem, ad hominem, ad hominem... need I go on about the nonsense and emptiness of your post?

    Too bad you don't have the balls to actually critique his videos.

  • @coffee396 Lee, is interested in the government and how it works WITH money. Money is a factor that is used to back up his claims. He wishes for wealth in nations. What is wrong with that? In MANY of his videos, he has stated that wealth creates a better society. Look at, India. The economy is horrible and there is garbage pile up everywhere. Reason: No wealth. Without wealth, the government and it's people can not clean up the mess they made. Reputation was granted by the people who lost.

  • htww is stupid and makes no sense...oh and btw whoeva commented before me? it does not help to do a lil research instead of criticizing someone else because u'r too lazy to think for urself and do ur own research

  • what lee doren argues is stupid and if you need proof watch his videos...oh and btw it does not hurt to do a lil research..isread of criticizing someone because u too lazy to do the research urself

  • htww is just trying to get into the right wing lobby game, he is a moneyhorney bitch robot who wants to make money .

    he doesnt care at all about being refuted or exposed, his only goal is sucking the pulsating veiny right wing lobbieist dick, and maybe licking the sweat of rush limbaughs balls

  • He links every single thing he discusses. And if for some reason he is wrong with a fact, he will correct his mistakes.

    And your saying its bad that he makes a video every day? Thats just plain stupid.

  • that's exactly what I was going to ask. Tons of people make daily videos. And provides links. He also failed to provide any examples of HTWW using misinformation.

  • I've been through this before with other people. If you're too lazy to check it out for yourself, please go be boring elsewhere.

  • I looked and some of your responses to comments like mine and honestly you fail to ever provide any examples. That's what ruins the credibility of your claims. You have no evidence that he does these things.

    And this is kind of a random question but why exactly is your preferred insult "boring". I think you could be a bit more aggressive than that I think. It kind of annoys me how you jump to the conclusion that someone is "boring" based off of one youtube comment. hmmmmm.....

  • Why "boring?"

    I call them like I see them and I've been getting the same two or three criticisms, repeatedly, since the sheep began bleating. Get the same thing over and over again, and it gets dull. Depressingly dull, drab and awful.

  • So i see you have decided to avoid the point I made in the first section of my comment. I guess that proves even further your credibility in these matters.

  • Tell me something...

    Why should I respond to your question when I've answered the SAME question in other comments? More than once, if memory serves.

  • Your other comments and there doesn't seem to be any sound excuse for not providing any evidence of the things you say. You could at least show a clip, or link to one of his videos or something so that we can see an example of what you're talking about. Then again you did say that this video isn't about his message but about his tactics, but why do you find it so absurd to post daily videos (which he doesn't anymore)? I find it highly unlikely that he does that just so people cant respond

  • You're the one trying to prove to US that Lee is wrong. Yet you tell us to do the research you should of done before you made this stupid video? No thanks.

  • just watch all the videos that prove he his wrong, it's like saying "hitler was a bad man" and then you saying "oh really, Why is that ? " somethings are just obvious.

  • Terra, with all due respect, I'd say this is how you LET Lee Doren work. My personal opinion is that you let Lee play too large a role in your life. I subscribe to his videos because I find him interesting, but rest assured that I disagree with much of what he says. Don't assume that a high subscriber rate and viewership equate to his success in indoctrinating his audience. Better, I think, to stick to your own videos and your own viewpoints.

  • With all due respect, GlorifiedTruth, I've only made this one video against Doren. I don't have the time, nor the real inclination to deal with HTWW and his nonsense.

    I make videos about what I want to talk about, who I want to talk about when I want to talk about it. But I appreciate your concern...

  • Fair enough. Sorry; I seem to have lumped you in with some others without checking out your channel first.

  • What a fucking retarded video. Doren links every fucking thing he says in the sidebar on his videos. If you don't believe him, look it up. He gives you the link you lazy liberal fuck.

    Like Alba said, go complain some more. See if your god obama saves you.

  • Those "links" are usually to other conservative blogs and not to any usual research or anything substantial that backs up Doren's nonsense.

    Also, insults do not work against me as I really don't care what you say or think, you ignorant buffoon.

    Be boring elsewhere, Señor Sockpuppet.

  • So why don't you put your own links up?

    What Doren links to is true. Otherwise the blogs would just be torn up by people like yourself anyways. Besides you could say the same thing about liberals and their blogs.

  • I'm shocked. Thanks for not being boring.

    I didn't post links because, like others have said in these comments sections, this is not a video about Doren's message, but his tactics. Doren floods YouTube with video after video (This site is apparently his primary source of income) and it takes people with real lives much longer to make counter videos.

    That was the only message in my video.

    Like someone smart said, a moron can spread more lies in one video than an expert can counter in 50.

  • Again, the stuff doren links to is true. I haven't found something that isn't true on one of his videos (I use his information for debating liberals so I make sure what he's saying is true for my own sake so I don't embarass myself).

    And how he makes his videos isn't a matter of fact or fiction, just opinion. And he really doesn't make that many.

  • Well this a waste fo 4:51 seconds of my life that I well never get back.

    I'm sooooo sorry that Lee Doran makes your life so hard. Boo hoo you cannot keep up with Doran.

    It's really not that hard because Doran gives you his sources so that you can go there and read them.

    Why is it important for you to try to rebutt common sense anyway?

  • And why is it so important for you to repeat the same nonsense so many others have repeated for you.

    I do hope that you can come up with something interesting, as the rest of the flock of Doren's sheep have bored me to sleep so far.

  • I don't so much that I would consider myself a part of "the flock of Doren's sheep".

    The ideas he espouses were the ideas I believed in long before I ever heard of him. I just find his vblogs informative and well researched.

    This is the only vid that I have seen of yours and see no reason why I should watch any others. You probably just another whiney liberal complaining about freedom being too much of a responsibility and that gov't should take it all away from us and take care of us.

  • Boooooooring!

    Considering that you believed in his ideas before you heard of him, your confirmational bias is showing, but kudos for admitting it at least.

    You may not consider yourself part of the flock, but you really are one, I'm sad to say. You were just grazing in another field before you found Doren.

    And as far as my political beliefs go, your ignorance of them is not of my concern, especially if this is the only video you've seen of mine.

    I hope you can do better next time.

  • Ikaruga intro music lol =)

  • If you ask me I think LiberalViewer pwn the shit out of howtheworldworks big time. :) Good vid. :)

  • Btw my name is Kenneth Jakobsen, 30 years old from Danmark, Europe. And i for one knows how government run healthcare works. In our country government actually pays private hospitals, to help them bring down waiting times.

    Call me a sheep if you like, this is just my opinion.

  • Okay as a HTWW viewer i might give my own thoughts.

    The way i see it Lee makes two kinds of videos:

    Videos which mentions news, and his own opinions about the topics. Whats the problem with these?.

    He then occationally picks propaganda like "Story of stuff" and rips out the nonsense with citations to facts. And videos that claims, that government run healthcare, is the best thing since slices bread. When the fact is, that is simply is a mess.

  • you're upset because he can make videos faster then you can?

  • And the sheep are now repeating themselves!

  • Dude, you're just a whiner. Waa! Lee Dornan makes videos faster than i can! Waaa! That's unfair!!!!

    Since when is using facts to discredit obvious propaganda "extremist politics?" And since when is an understanding of and preference for capitalism somehow wrong?

  • Lee Doren is just a minion of Fred and Frances Smith who run Competitive Enterprise Institute and other pro-corporate "non-profit, non-partisan" organizations in Washington. CEI has been very deceptive in the past with its global warming ads

  • Free thinker? LOL You should apply this video to the Young Turks.

  • LOL, you should stop using sockpuppets to hide behind!

  • zzZZzz. Oh, did you say something interesting?  Must have been my imagination. zzZZZzzz

  • I'm disappointed. I thought you might be interesting, like the other ones.

    I guess I'm wasting my time with you, so have a nice life.

  • Stop trying to ride on Doren's coat tails to gather a fan base. Maybe try and get your video quality up to par first, and then try and get some actual content to put in the video. Then all you need to do is build a fan base, get a personality (and an education) and then you MIGHT be taken seriously. Just trying to help.

  • HTWW blocked me when I called him out on the sock account thing which is kind of tell me that he is lying in what he says.

  • lee makes 1 video every other day, unlike TYT who post videos every other hour

  • They have all missed the point of the video.

  • Of course they have. Drones have a tendency to do just that. :)

  • Some of the comments sound like they are coming from HTWW.

  • I'm still waiting for you guys to get interesting and, y'know, not spout the exact line that HTWW is peddling.

    Get back to you when that happens! kthxbai!

  • Uhhh, a few stars for effort... what is this nonsense about anti-capitalism?

  • @Terrarising Is this a joke, I really hope that this is a bad attempt at comedy. Al you did is sate that Lee makes videos, then somehow with ZERO facts to support you, declared Lee's videos nonsense, do a factual rebuttal, otherwise you are starting to sound boring and annoying. It is very annoying when you accuse someone with ought facts to back you up.

  • Are you kidding me? It took you almost 5 minutes to says "he makes videos faster than you can?"

    You need to learn to get a sentence out in under 20 seconds if you want to be effective at anything that involves speaking.

  • "Listen to the fool's reproach! It is a kingly title." William Blake

    Keep up the reproaches, Terrarising! Lee can use the props!

  • why would anyone be against capitalism? Not only has it made the USA the most exceptional, powerful, fruitful, successful nation in the world, but it gives everyone a shot at success. Everyone can be as successful as anyone else, but you have to work for it.....

    oh wait, i just answered my own question....people who are against capitalism are lazy and dont want to work for their success. They want hacks like Obama to hand them their slice of the pie.

  • hahaha ratings disabled?  scared much?

  • Oh, for God's sake, learn how to make a video! Don't explain to us how a cut works. (1:16) We know already: videos are edited.

    And if you're too lazy to make graphics, as you explained to us in the beginning of the video, then you are likely to lazy to develop a skill, get a job or start a business, and support yourself. No wonder you hate capitalism.

  • I like how you use Lee's real name, while using a pseudo-name for yourself. I strongly disagree with his views on the environment, and his blind backing of the GOP, but the free market is what our country rich and the social stuff has bankrupted us and lowered our standard of living. Look at the inflation caused by government and the fed!

  • Well, "How How The World Works Really Works" is a bit cumbersome.

  • It's in really bad taste. Nobody ever used Venomfangx's real name. The fact that it is in the title and in the video, while he maintains a pseudo-name. Even if if I couldn't stand the guy I wouldn't put his full name in the title of a video.

  • Lee Doren, aka HTWW, released his own name and revealed his channel when he became the "Crasher-in-Chief" of BureauCrash. Therefore, I'm not releasing any information that hasn't been already released by Mr. Doren himself.

    VenomFangX never released his last name to the public of YouTube, but I have seen several videos addressed to him that used his first name in reference to the kid.

  • That's not true. A lot of people knew Sean's last name and even his address. One person put all that in a video, which got removed for having his personal information in it. I know that a lot of people know his real name, but that doesn't justify putting it in the title. This stuff shouldn't be so personal. I don't see this as a freedom of speech movement, I see it as youtube drama. I respectfully disagree with him constantly on the environment and he doesn't block me.

  • hmm he blocks my comments. and my comment was polite and simply stated the facts that were he was getting his info was not a reliable source and he blocked me.

  • I stopped listening at a minute forty when you smeared him for suppourting capitalism. Capitalism (and this is all common logic and fact) has ended more poverty then any other system in the world... it has brought more freedom than any other..it has advanced more human technology than any other..it has secured the most stable economy ever recorded...Capitalism has never failed...The free market never really failed..what failed was t he government...FACT..

  • So, let me get this right... The problem with how Lee Doren really works is that you're too darn slow to respond to him?

    Brilliant!?!?

  • No, HTWW isn't brilliant, he pulls crappy arguments from his "black hole" and doesn't care if the argument is valid.

    Those who respond are carefull to investigate these claims, and bing evidence and good arguments against the claims from HTWW, this takes far more time than direct uploading some BS nonsense (like HTWW does).

    A moron can claim more falsehoods in one video than a scientist can disprove in 50.

  • nicely said terra

  • Great video and so true.

  • Well...Lee has references unlike your video. If he really is lying...then how can he reference it? Be real. You just don't like it because he goes against what you believe. That's all.

  • Lee Doren provides references of greatly varying quality, all to fit the agenda of his employer, The Competitive Enterprise Institute.

    CEI argues facts don't matter, it's rigging an argument to persuade the gullible, which you can find referenced on their front webiste page.

  • Oh..ok...Kind of like blaming George Bush for the economy...or the war in Iraq. Similar to the idea that the levy's in New Orleans were blown up...or even the lack of response. Interesting. It's fascinating how the left blames people on the right of using their own tactics.

  • No, a 2/06 article by Iain Murray where he makes that admission.

    Bush is to blame for the Iraq war, that comes cherry picking a few items and ignoring intelligence. New Orleans levees broke from decades of neglect. Bush is to blame for ineffectual FEMA response. Nice try at bullshitting.

  • There is a wealth of information against Lee and his ideas. Or lack thereof. This video does not address those.

  • These need to be addressed in order to state a valid case.

  • No, they do not. The point of this video is how difficult it is to counter Lee because he slings BS faster than it can be countered with a quality video. At least by someone who has a job and a life. It is not about the specifics of the BS. That is covered elsewhere

  • That is a sad retort. You are basically backing down because he is more knowledgable than yourself. The point of this video is that most people don't keep up with current events enough to carry any length of conversation. If you have to "research" your thoughts on things like the economy, healthcare, the current administration or anything in the public eye; It just shows that you do not even have enough information to hold a valid point of view on these topics.

  • Bullshit. Complete utter fucking bullshit. I spent weeks learning about CDOs and CDSes so I could form coherent thoughts of who the mother fuckers are who stole from us. You think I know this shit off the top of my head? You think I believe some bullshit email some no-nothing fuckwad sends me? No, I go, learn, research and form an educated opinion. Do I know all the issue related to health care?

  • No. So, the other night I created a prototypical family with no insurance, included the actual plan costs that an agent friend said it would cost, included the other expenses that a family in my area would encounter at realistic levels (rent in my area, etc), and got a good understanding why lower middle class people without employer provided healthcare are having big problems. So, if i were to do a piece of healthcare, it would have to start there.

  • What I wouldn't do is run around like some looney going "Obama is a Socialist", "Obama is a Fascist", blah, blah. Or claiming the silly assertion that an unregulated free market makes any sense. You even think about arguing about that, you had better be fucking ready to sit and spin on copyright, trademark and patent law. AND THIS IS NOT THE POINT OF THIS VIDEO. IDIOT.

  • Doesn't take much to get you snippy. So in other words you need to overstimulate people with nonsense in order to cut to a clear point. No one in this country is denied healthcare. Deal with it. You make me smile.

  • Still not the point of this video. As for healthcare. To a certain extent, I agree. However, we screw ourselves by not making preventative care a priority. This leads to to the extreme cost/low performance situation we are in now. For really low income people, preventative care is a priority, it does work, and it saves a great deal of money. Even Bush understood this and increased the budgets for various low income clinic programs.

    Healthcare has been socialized - just poorly.

  • healthcare has many imperfections and flaws...it is an issue and a problem...obamas cure though is bad medicine...itll be worse..."but china and canada and blah blah blah have free healthcare"...have you ever wondered why people travel to america to get treatment when its obviously a shit ton more expensive and a much much larger headache??...quite simply because we have the best hospitals doctors and equipment (because of our system)..your hearts are in the right place but ur heads arent..

  • Several years difference in average life expectancy between much of Europe and the US says it's not a great system.

    Hospitals over the world have different specialities, a lot of Americans travel to Europe too, that proves nothing.

  • Do you guys get interesting at some point?

  • terrarising even writes in his description that this video explains why Lee is a dangerous person on the internet. WHAT DID THIS GUY EXPLAIN?! could anyone answer that?

  • It is simple, the disemination of misinformation is quick and easy, but the responses and correctoin take much longer. As TR explains it may take two or more days to construct a rebuttal to refute a video, in which time there have been 2 or more videos posted with more misinformation.

    tl;dr - It takes longer to refute falsehoods than to make them.

  • Why don't you take the time to watch his videos and even read his links before you quickly assume that he's lying?But, if your not gonna watch the videos, don't form an opinion. Are you suggesting that he is purposely distorting the truth? Anyone can claim something is not true without factual evidence. It is also quick and easy.

  • That the damn point. Those who do take the time, and do refute falsehoods take a damn site longer than captainstaresalot did creating his bullshit. And no, not all of his videos are crap. It is just that he always claims to have done his research when on some occasions it is very clear he hasn't. It is a technique oft used by creationists to give them an heir of authority with the masses they know won't double check anything.

  • Thank you, Cowinspace. I couldn't have said it better myself.

  • What Cowinspace said does not disprove anything Lee said.

  • Not one person on here has dared to even try to disprove one single point Lee has made. Don't resort to name calling if you can't argue with facts.And don't let your fantasies get too out of control..You also don't answer my questions. I take it that you actually think that this guy is purposely distorting the truth in order to gain more support for whoever he supports.What exactly don't you like about what he is trying to convey?

  • That is because this ISN'T lee's video. If I want to try to disprove/counter one of his arguments I will do so in HIS video. This is about the way he makes some of his videos, nothing to do with any specific argument. And yes, on occasion he has been caught 'distorting the truth' (lieing). I don't have the same stance as him but that is not the problem presented here. The problem here is him lieing on occasion (again it does not apply to all his videos, only some).

  • Dude...Do you watch his videos? You were wrong on so many points, it was just silly.

  • this video is worthless

    You did not touch the issues that you and Lee disagree on, if you really wanted people to listen to you perhaps you should talk about the issues at hand. No one wants to see a whining person talk about his blurry video and writing on a dry erase board.

    seriously, you spent the first 2 minutes asking for pity.

    if he spouts nonsense, PROVE IT.

    you make all freethinkers look like whiners.

    bashing an opponent doesnt make your point any more valid.

  • To be in The League of Reason, one must subscribe to a specific economic doctrine?

  • I'm actually kind of shocked that anyone in their right mind is defending that immature diatribing, extrapolating, berk that is Lee Doren. if you need any proof of how much of a fool this kid is just watch him talk about how much of a joke Car Free Day is when in reality he is the joke.

  • you think he's a joke because he thinks Car Free Day is a joke? who in their right mind would consider car free day seriously?

  • If you cannot live without your car for one day that seems pretty sad. Personaly I walk as much as possible, maybe you should try it after all it is only one day.

  • hahaha so you suggest that everyone in the country should definitely just not drive for 1 day?for what?many people would die of a result of that for many reasons.(for example, doctors, being on time for work. etc.)that's just silly, i can't help but find it humorous of such a silly idea. watch what he meant when he considered car free day was a joke.

  • Why not? What harm is there? Obviously it would not be expected that proffesional drivers stop(couriers/post/public transport). Everyone else just has to leave a little earlier, get a little fresh air and maybe even meet other people. If you can't handle walking use a bike. It is only for one day and you never know you might actually like it.

  • You fail to see the point. No one should be Expected to not drive for one day.period.and it will never seriously happen.

  • It is voluntary, so no-one is expected to do anything. But I would suggest you try it once, even if only for a little of the day(morning/afternoon). And no, I doubt a truly car free day would happen (again, proffesional drivers and long commuters).

  • I honestly do not own a car, but why would you suggest that to me? The fact that it's voluntary...most people treat that as a joke.

  • Well there goes my attempt to get someone out of their car :)

    Treat it as a joke, as something funny or humerous. But still encourage some to take part, again it is one day and you never know you/they might actually get something from the experience. Without jokes the day is a whole lot duller.

  • apparently Lee Doren took it seriously so thank you for proving my point

  • this guy is dumb as hell. if you can't keep up with him, that's your problem.
