Thank you, this needs to go viral!

[StandUp555]

Thankyou .... Excellent Speech.

This fine lady has made one of the best speeches I've heard for a long long time.

She really has the overview of what is happening in this world.

As AnitaMarieStewart said .. this needs to go viral.

The sad part is, that the world can provide more than enough food, its just that the food doesn't make its way to the countries that need it due to corruption or delay.

Both extremes in the economic spectrum are bad, you move into the capitalist side, there's no such thing as being selfish. You always want you're government to be somewhere in the middle, capitalist trade with social programs to help you out when you can no longer provide for yourself.

the rich believe it's better to exterminate the vast masses of the third world that breed like rabbits and do not contribute to the collective

the poor want socialism so they can take some of the richer nations GDP

the middle class want to remain the same in the west.

I suspect the Rich will get their way sooner or later

"Im not trying to change the world... Im just making sure that the world doesn't change me."

Great video, spread the word everyone.

[lonchecaliente]

I love this girl.. such significant points

[underyourskindvd]

I think its call it depopulation.

Its nothing new.. Siege tactics.

[kmvenuann]

Very true...!

Keep up your good work, Mittal. We'll contiunue to make some sense of why we want everybody to listen ,esp the political class of the third world.

Imagine if mainstream media was to run all of Mikes videos everyday for a month , the population would lose its minds , just a stupid fantasy i know .

God Bless Mike for always raising his head up and getting out of bed everyday 5/5

A lot of real problems are being brought up here and a lot needs to be done, but what are her solutions? She first attacks trade liberalization and then complains that trade embargoes are the problem. I agree with most of her complaints against the Gates Foundation and it's certainly true that farming subsidies do enormous damage to developing countries. Isn't it obvious most of these problems are coming from attempts at global governance not "Capitalism"?

How do people reach this stage of enlightenment? I am ashamed to be an American at this point in my life, but I have no idea how to begin doing something meaningful, something that will make a difference...

Faced with the likes of the Goldman Sachs mafioso, it seems that the only solution is the utter collapse of America...

A lovely lady, Thank You, Brilliant
