Damn, I wish I could give this video 10 stars...

Short, sweet, and very informative! Thanks.

One could draw a Venn diagram of weapons manufacturers, banking/finance interests, and private contractor/"consulting" firms to understand the crooks who are really running the show.

So should we do anarchy? Yeah, the thing is that we have the power to elect our officials, so as Bertrand Russel said:

Democracy is interesting, because the elected officials cannot be as stupid as those who elect them.

Remember 9/11 who doesn't! Then America were in Afghanistan on the hunt for OBL, all good. Then 2 months later all of a sudden the US is at war with Iraq looking for WMD. No WMD's were found and yet the war goes on. WHY? Then you hear North Korea is kicking out the UN weapons inspectors and declaring it is making nuclear weapons. You want a smoking gun then there it is! But no invasion of North Korea. WHY? WMD's, Taliban, Axis of Evil. Please, we have heard enough bullshit.

Shareholders need to be more responsible too. They need to be aware, alert, educated, so they know to sell their shares the very moment they become remotely over inflated. And, if they can't stop the false bubble, then they shouldn't be public. There needs to be a cap on the number of shares a person can hold in any public company IMO

Obama doesn't have much of a choice.. he is between the proverbial rock and a hard place. He was undoubtedly told, in no uncertain terms (by the real "axis of evil" who are running (ruining) the world) that "if you don't play on our terms, Mr Obama.... by the way, you have two lovely children and a beautiful wife.... etc... etc.... ". Some old.
