Chaos in Chicago during NATO summit

This past weekend hordes of protesters arrived in the city of Chicago to protest the North Atlantic Treaty Organization Summit. Hundreds of police suited in riot gear clashed with anti-NATO protesters who some say brought the city to a standstill. Anastasia Churkina brings us more from Chicago, Illinois.

You're fighting CRONY capitalism...not capitalism...fools. Capitalism was once great but because government and lobbyists control it now, it has gotten out of control. It has become crony capitalism. DON'T MIX THE TWO UP! It's foolish.

I don't think anyone has all the answers, ideas are what makes things happen. And when those ideas are set into motion, somebody is probably going to make alot of money. That's one of the great aspects of capitalism. Now when somebody wants to share those ideas, or make that idea even more productive. That is Capitalism working. Their can't be just one type of TV or one type of Car, That is the point I'm making. Someone has a great idea, however, they can't be the only ones profiting from it.

I must start this comment by saying its sooo refreshing to have a constructive and respectful debate/conversation with someone on YouTube, it's not that common as I'm sure you know. But going back to the topic; sadly most of the copyright infringement and the like are taking place strictly overseas. Just look at all the ripoff iPhones, electronics in general, and especially cars. You should look up some of the blatant ripoffs of vehicles from China. Hell, they faked an entire Apple store there.

Good point. However, it is the job of our Government and the people to keep illicit product from entering the country. When people buy products they know are illicit, they are just as guilty and should face prosecution. However, there is alot of corruption out there both in the private and Government sectors. And when I say private, I mean Corporate espionage and the such.

Well that's not actually fascism as I hope you know, but you have a point. It's fucked up when the right people don't get what they deserve. The people who do the hard work to bring something new and special to the world, whatever it may be, should be able to enjoy the success and benefits that being the inventor of that object or idea brings. But sadly, with people in countries like China and Russia, especially, with blatant copyright and patent infringement, that is not always the case.
