Van Jones, "green" advisor to President Obama, speaking about revolution through the "green" movement. This man is a self-avowed communist who has the ear of the President. Who vetted this man in the Obama administration? Did the Obama administration know who Van Jones was before they allowed him to become an advisor? Listen to White House Senior Advisor Valerie Jarrett and make your own determination.
That made absolute and total sense and anybody, even real hard core "banker type" capitalists who want a livable planet for their children, should heed what this man is saying. Only a fool who thinks the sinking ship that this civilization has become should remain unchanged, would find fault in MR Jones assessment and want to keep the keep the status quo.

@punkrockparents What we have had since ~1913 is a simile of 'capitalism' where one small and well paid group gets to have most of the capital to play "supply and demand" games for the other 99%.
We call them "bubbles" and they've been used like economic "WMDs" against America and what was once its great middle class. (Until "ordo ab chao" came due; now its "CHAOS" time.)

@damnyancey Really don't care if he is a self proclaimed communist or not--In my opinion all the "isms" or any ideology for that matter--religious, political or social--are just artificial constructs which work to divide us. Capitalism, in it's pursuit of profit above all else, certainly seems to be the most monstrous.

Why is it that in America if you are not a freekin' capitalist you are automatically labeled a communist? Good choice of words, Jarrett, you "captured" that all right -- and we are so hopeful now that he is free once again! Missed you Van. Now that you are outta there maybe I'll finish your book!
