60 Minutes Expose: How The Lobbies Rule America

[RobertW1809]

this is not happening because of "a few bad individuals", such massive quantities of abuse and corruption are only possible when *the entire culture is rotten.* The problem is not 'them', it is all of us. All of us have to change in order for this shit to go away; or else we will just have another 'revolve-ution' and have to wait another 200 years to realize, yet again, that the problem and solution is us, the human being. Support the new social contract: the Equal Money System.

Guys, look up rent-seeking. This is not us "losing" our democracy. This is democracy in action

[nbpt1000]

This is a major example as to why Lobbiest should be outlawed. At a minimum a former rep or senator should be excluded from ever working for a lobby firm or one of their law firms. It is an obvious and huge conflict of interests.

To FLYYY can you please disclose your relationship to the drug industry?

Also, name one person in the past 5 years that "swam" here from Cuba. If this is so common it should be easy.

[noonej]

What books are there on this subject? I'd like to read more about this and become knowledgeable.

[scottyb453]

This is worse then i thought. What the fuck is going on? 

[Flyyyy]

Hey 60 Minutes.......how about spending a segment on finding out what is GREAT about the USA instead of bashing it every Sunday night.

There are people in Cuba who have been swimming in shark-infested waters, for the last 30 years, risking getting eaten by sharks, just to get to the USA. Are people from the USA, swimming in these same waters to get to CUBA ( to embrace it's glorious Socialistic /Communist government ?)

I think not !

Do you like Apples?

Well "How 'bout them apples" ?

[Bristow42]

Thats just the drugs, then there is the weapons, food and banking. They are all after their 13 pieces of silver.

[markbradleyvideos]

This is very interesting. Thanks for your help. I will be checking some of your videos. I believe I can have more good videos from you.

[TheSlothook]

This is just sad, but it happens with everything...check out how ethanol is also a product of corruption. Hell, half the tax shelters do really nothing for the economy and are really a tool for high asset entities. The american public are simply getting screwed.

[TheOgrelord]

Legal bribery. Corporations run the world.

[luvofcountry]

This is one of my favorite 60 Minutes episodes.

Unfortunately, CBS doesn't seem to want people to watch it. After months of trying to view it on their site, I only get the beginning commercials -and then the video stalls. This morning, the commercial was from Pfizer.

American senetors and congrasmen dont understand the responsibility too their citizens, they live in a bubble of ambition and seek reputation thrue manipulation, no doubt their is a wider angle, but whom can stop a process of a multi billion industry who has ties too everything that can give power, the question is why do they execute these extortions in every 8 years, this is a huge deal of unpatrioticism that never can be discussed politically, money is a great thing but leverage is better

[hazecada32]

[goobie04]

[arlichar11]

[goobie04]

[hazecada32]

[goobie04]

[hivquestions]

another piece of the puzzle as to why independent scientific review is not allowed with hiv research.

[77ebuTouY77]

Vote Barak O'buckwheat yo!

[luvofcountry]

This is probably my favorite video. Shows perfectly that a Republican congress cares more about profits and greed, than for the well-being of Americans. No excuses.

What a gangster mentality these people show.

[Noz4ah2]

This is a nasty look at what we all know to be the truth. Rep. or Dem., our representatives are being controlled by one degree or another by old rich bastards that want to make a metric assload of cash. We have got to get a handle on this or they're gonna keep screwing us every chance they get.

[paramani]

i say; america is fucked up
