[murozman]

Tyson is a gift from god!

(Of course, I mean that in the most metaphorical and least superstitious way possible!)

[Mutherzmilk]

i have a man crush on him lol

@Rut267:Did you learn anything?

[rongenaw]

I love this guy. Is it just me or is it obvious he hit some weed before he got up there? I mean damn, he starts off by saying he just wants his desert and wrote his notes on a menu.

[antipodeandreason]

The reason nothing is happening anymore is because control of the economy is lead by greedy arse holes with no oversight. All the money is going in their pockets and they don't give a shit about their country. Business men and politicians are so interwoven that profit is all that matters without thinking of the future.

Until banks and business pay there share of taxes the money for investment will always fall short of what is required.

@GreatImperium i dont mean forced participation, as in holding an office or getting a government job... im saying we're forced into being ruled by the government...we are supposed to, as free americans, be governed only by consent of the governed, this does not mean the majority must consent, it means each individual must consent....and i sure as hell dont...i dont know what kind of non generalization youre expecting from me, talking about american governmnent, but i have to generalize some..

[GreatImperium]

@longfootbuddy

what a terrible generalization and a biased accusation. while i do agree that a multitude of americans are mentally degenerate to say the least, there are actually people within the U.S.who are working tirelessly to overturn the current asinine status quo. also, all nations/states force their citizens to participate in their systems. and participation in the government is not forced/coerced, unlike other countries who offer incentives.

[longfootbuddy]

i dont like something about america too.. its a mockery of freedom, and nothing more than a group of dumb numbskulls that have no rights that arent permitted by their mob rule government...why you people think you have the right to force me to obey you and hand over the products of my labors for you to play with, is beyond my understanding...your whole system is based on forced participation, because its unwanted by the minority.. america is a mockery of liberty and freedom of individuals

Never give Neil DeGrasse Tyson a mic if you are on a time table

@bugilt

He has his own show..kinda.NovaScienceNow

[Rut267]

Um, he's a horrible communicator. He trips over his own words, is lost for words, and is prone to theatrical hand movements.

He's a smart cat, no doubt, but I don't think he's a very articulate man.
